The dimly lit room was illuminated by a faint white light provided by electronic lamps. The light shone on Anthony's face, making his face look so pale. On Anthony's face, there was a freshly scarred bloody yoke, which was bestowed by a tearer during the breakout battle at the base on the second floor of the basement. If Luca the Blade Warrior hadn't cut off the monster's sharp claw in time, then Anthony would not have simply scratched a scar, but his entire face would have been torn apart by the Ripper.
Anthony, who was furious, gave the monster a mental shock, which directly smashed the Ripper's already scarce brains, so the monster suddenly sprayed two blood arrows from its nostrils, and then died silently.
So far, apart from Bridge, who died in the first wave of zombie raids, the other members of the Pioneer Squad have only suffered minor injuries. Among them, Oram was seriously injured. This fireman was hit by a butcher with a heavy weapon on his right shoulder. Auram's shoulder was shattered on the spot, and although he has received emergency care, his entire right hand is hanging down and he has lost consciousness.
But Oram, the master gunner, has a fourth-order power enhancement. With just one right hand, he could still carry his heavy machine gun, so he didn't overwhelm the team. Otherwise, it's hard to imagine whether Anthony would sacrifice this big guy as a driving force for the team.
For Anthony, except for Luca who completed various tasks together before entering the barracks, the other team members can be regarded as resources for sacrifice. Of course, it's not that Luca cannot be sacrificed, it's just that Luca, who is the strongest melee player in the entire team, Anthony will not let him sacrifice for nothing.
It's just that now, Anthony doesn't have to sacrifice his own resources, because now there is a blaster team to do it for him.
After entering the second base, Anthony quickly discovered where Rankine and the others were. At that time, Luca proposed to join Rankin's team and break through this base with the strength of the two teams. But Anthony should not only reject this suggestion, but also carry out a simple and practical method.
That is to use the blaster team as bait to attract the attention of the living corpses in the base. As for Anthony and his party, they followed Rankin and the others without any worries. And with Anthony's area scanning ability, they are enough to hang them 500 meters behind Rankine's team, and they don't have to worry about being discovered by Rankine and the others. What's more, Anthony doubts whether Rankine has this ability.
Now, Rankin's team once again attracted the eyes of the living corpses. In other words, it is also time for the vanguard team to act.
Anthony stood up, and the others knew it was time to act. Without waiting for his order, everyone stood up from the corner of the rest, and after a simple self-check of equipment, they were ready to go.
"Let's go." Anthony said lightly. Although Rankine opened the way for him, he was actually quite impatient. After all, he hadn't had zero intelligence for nearly 20 hours. And on the way, Anthony made several simple but effective traps. Judging from the large number of corpses lying around the trap, Zero's team has been approaching at a faster speed.
Originally, he planned to guard the exit. Regardless of which team, Zero or Rankine, obtains the mission diary, they can directly grab it while waiting for work, and even kill the opponent's team members to achieve their goal. But a wave of surprise raids by living corpses disrupted Anthony's plan. They had to also enter the huge and dangerous underground base, because there were as many as ten entrances from the second floor to the first floor base, Anthony couldn't do the old trick again, so he had to race against time to win the first one who got the mission. thing.
However, he is more concerned about Zero's whereabouts now.
The visible enemy is not terrible, the invisible enemy is the most terrible!
Zero is now in a room on the third floor of the medical center occupied by Eva. After listening to their mission, Eva said: "The five-story underground base, you are actually going there. It seems that the guy who assigned the mission did not want to make things difficult on purpose. You guys are the ones with water in their heads."
Eva sat on the only table in the room, still wearing the shirt and skirt that looked like an office girl yesterday, and Eva crossed her slender legs. When the long legs in flesh-colored stockings were crossed together, they were full of temptation, and Feng's eyes almost protruded.
She said lightly: "Except for the second basement floor being occupied by living corpses, every base below is occupied by various monsters. If you want to fight a way out of these monsters' lairs, you need at least an army. However, You have chosen a suitable time. Except for the living corpses, all the monsters in the large army have entered the hibernation period, so it is not impossible for you to have a chance."
"You have lived here for two years, and you have also entered the fifth-floor base. I wonder if there is a shortcut or something like that, and you can finally bypass those bugs." Zero asked.
Eva smiled and said, "There is no shortcut, but I know how to get there without stepping into those bugs' lairs."
"In other words, you will go with us."
"Of course, otherwise you won't understand even if I tell you about it." Eva said again: "However, you can only go to the fifth floor base. No matter what the reason is, you can't enter the sixth floor base, where people live A big reptile, it is not an opponent you can afford."
"What is it?" Zero asked with a frown. It's a potential risk factor. It's not a bad thing to figure it out early.
"A crypt lord, I don't think you will like to provoke it." Eva smiled, showing a row of white teeth.
A few people couldn't laugh.
The Crypt Lord is a giant mutant beast that belongs to the same category as the Filth Eater, and is amphibious on land and sea. The body shape is like an aircraft carrier, and it is omnivorous and oviparous. Crypt lords resemble giant catfish in appearance, but have hundreds of tentacles with suction cups that hold prey in and drain its fluids. The nutrients in the body fluid will enter the body of the crypt lord through the meat wall pipe in the sucker, providing nutrition for its huge body.
Upon hearing that such a terrifying monster was entrenched under the sixth floor of the base, both Zero and the carefree Feng turned solemn.
"That's it, we will set off when we are ready. As long as we don't provoke that big monster, the rest is not so difficult." Eva concluded with this sentence.
Half an hour later, everyone gathered at the gate of the hospital. The few people are still the same, but there is an extra Eva in the team. The woman was still wearing the same office uniform, but she had the heavy sword "Black Dragon" on her back. The black dragon weighed nearly half a ton, but Eva carried it on his back as if nothing had happened. In this way, every time Eva takes a step, a shallow footprint will be left on the alloy floor.
But Zero, who had seen Eva go berserk, knew that when this woman who majored in fighting was fully opened, her body weight was no less than that of an epee.
In addition to Eva, Zero's team has many new members. This included nearly fifty zombie shooters, seven butchers, and five rippers. In addition, there is Eva's proud work "Gemini".
Those two-headed giant living corpses were no smaller than a butcher once they stood in this biochemical army. And the level of the twins is still higher than the butcher and the tearer, so although they are not naturally generated zombie leaders, they can command this biochemical army.
So a few living people were protected by this biochemical army in the middle. Under the opening of these living corpses, they passed through the B and C areas without any danger. On the way, although many living corpses found this huge team, they dared not take any action because there were more than a dozen high-level monsters accompanying them. As for the other butchers and tearers, after seeing the twins, they all withdrew their eagerness to move.
A few people enjoyed the special treatment of the walking corpse army. After two hours of trekking, they had already seen the entrance to the base on the third floor underground. This is a deep spiral staircase passage, and the moist air with the smell of carrion floats from the depths of the passage. The third basement is the old lair of sickle insects. The sickle insects like to eat corpses, so they often come to the second floor base to prey on living corpses.
Over the years, the zombies have learned how to deal with their greedy neighbors. Within a distance of nearly a kilometer near the passage, you won't see any traces of the movement of living corpses. And once the sickle bug breaks through this default boundary, a large number of living corpses will bury these cross-border bugs alive. The body inside the carapace of the sickle insect has very tight muscle fibers. For living corpses, it is also delicious food. Especially butchers and tearers are regarded as treasures.
In addition to being delicious, the more important thing is that the muscle fiber of the sickle bug is a good thing for high-level living corpses like butchers, allowing them to improve their body strength.
The scythe is the size of a small car, and in the safe passage, only one can enter and exit at a time, so it is impossible to attack the second-floor base in large numbers, otherwise the living corpses would have long been history. After all, for living corpses that can't reproduce, the sickle bug with a production cycle of one month is simply a mass-produced biological weapon. It's just that the survival rate of sickle insects is not high, and the growth cycle needs about five months before the larvae can complete the evolution into adults. Therefore, the abnormal creatures on the upper and lower bases maintained a delicate balance.
Now, the zero people are in the passage that the scythe bug passed through. In night vision mode, they can see clearly. The surroundings of the passage are covered with hardened insect droppings, as well as sitting or lying human-shaped skeletons. They were the trophies of the scythe bugs, corpses dragged into the tunnel and eaten alive.
"Explore the way." At the entrance of the passage, Eva gave a simple instruction to the twins.
Countless data skipped through Gemini's four eyes, and immediately, its two mouths let out whistles of different syllables and lengths. The voice echoed in the passage, but it was recognized by the living corpse. So the two Rippers came out more and more, either running or crawling, they quickly entered the depths of the passage, and disappeared into the darkness.
A moment later, there was a low cry from the depths of the tunnel, it was the roar of the Ripper to express safety. After the voice was recognized by Gemini, it made a gesture to Eva, indicating that it could enter.
Gemini can't speak, it can only communicate with Eva with gestures. After Eva understood, she said to Ling and the others: "Let's go, there is no danger down there."
So the team started again, and under the protection of the Biochemical Legion, a few people walked towards the depths of the passage. The front was dark and dark, and everyone seemed to be walking into a bottomless abyss. Gradually, darkness overwhelmed their figures.
