For the derivatives attacked from the front passage, the strength of each researcher is equivalent to a fifth to sixth level ability user. The eighth-level zero is fully capable of dealing with them, but there are a lot of spinoffs, and zero needs to protect Beyoncé. Coupled with the special environment they are in now, after leaving this passage, they will arrive at the central control room. There is an open area between the two, and there is no straight-line passage to restrict the movement of researchers. Although Zero can protect himself, Beyoncé is in danger.
Just relying on an automatic rifle in her hand, Beyonce is absolutely unable to deal with the researchers attacking from all directions. Therefore, Zero decided to block the researcher at the end of the passage.
If Beyoncé is only based on the theory of intelligence, she will never be below zero, and even exceed zero. Zero told her to run to the central control room. At first she just subconsciously acted according to Zero's instructions, but after running a certain distance, she also saw the door of the control room facing the passage, and the red emergency light on it was flashing. Beyonce immediately realized the existence of backup energy, and the existence of energy means that some functions of the control room can still be operated.
Important buildings like the central control room usually have their own independent defense system and weapon platform to prevent the base from being easily captured by the enemy when it is invaded by foreign enemies. The central control room can not only dispatch the overall situation, but also serve as a fortress in the base. As Beyoncé approached, she saw two miniature machine guns hanging from the gate. But the weapon systems have stopped working and they are now reduced to decorations.
There were some mummified corpses lying outside the gate, and one of them was lying beside the gate. Judging from the posture, it should be that when a dangerous situation occurs at the base, the staff wants to enter the central control room to take refuge. But the door has been closed, leaving them alone to face the dangerous and cruel world of the base.
Intense gunshots have already sounded from the rear, and from time to time there are loud roars of energy torrents roaring and exploding. Beyonce knew that Zero had already handed over those monsters, and she knew that the time that Zero had fought for should not be wasted, so Beyoncé ignored the nausea in her heart and reached out to pull the mummy by the door away. She checked the gate quickly. The gate is made of thick armor alloy, a material that can completely withstand the impact of missiles.
Without the right method, it is almost impossible to violently destroy the gate from the outside. In fact, the criss-cross claw marks left on the gate have fully demonstrated this point. Beyonce turned her head and looked around, sweeping across many corpses on the ground. Suddenly, his gaze was fixed on a mummy not far to the left of the gate.
This male mummy was lying on the ground, propping up his upper body with one hand, and stretching out the other hand forward, trying to catch something. Unfortunately, a steel bar passed through his waist and was nailed to the ground, making all his efforts in vain.
From the perspective of the mummy, there is a small identity detection screen on the outside of the gate. The means of this type of detection mainly use laser to scan the pupil or palm print of the object to determine the identity of the object. With a heartbeat, Beyoncé ran over and grabbed the arm of the male mummy. She pulled hard, and with a loud plop, Beyoncé fell to the floor.
She was still holding half of the stumped arm in her hand. The mummy had lost any moisture, and the corpse was already extremely fragile, but it was broken by Beyoncé. Beyoncé quickly took the half arm and ran to the gate. After wiping off the dust on the surface of the detection screen, she was delighted to find that the data was still beating on the screen.
The detection screen was still working, and Beyonce pressed the large palm on the stumped arm to the detection screen. The data on the detection screen flickered quickly, and then an electronic synthesizer sounded: "Welcome, Dr. Callahan."
As the synthesized sounds disappeared, the door to the control room, which had been closed for decades, finally slowly reopened. Beyoncé was overjoyed, she turned her head and shouted at Zero: "Come on, the door is open!"
Zero could no longer use those two pistols calmly.
Although the power of the revolver is good, its advantages can only be highlighted when facing a small number of enemies. Now the number of enemies has increased, and the speed and movement rules have been significantly improved to a higher level. The burst fire with the revolver is completely unsuitable for the current situation, so Zero discarded them, and instead materialized a handful of soldiers, civilians and guns.
The gun in Zero's hand has not stopped firing for a moment since Beyoncé went towards the central control. As the muzzle flames spewed out, the bullets turned into dense streams of fire, and the ballistic trajectory was constantly corrected under the zero-point calculation of the environment and the opponent's movement trajectory, so that the line of fire sprayed from the muzzle covered the area 30 meters in front of the body.
Breaking into this area will definitely pay a heavy price.
But no matter what, Zero has only one person and only one gun. No matter how dense the line of fire is, no matter how precise the calculation is, there will be omissions. So once in a while, one or two spinoffs that broke into the line of fire had to be dealt with by Zero's gun in the other hand.
The researcher is like a killing machine, the bone knife in his elbow and the mouthpart in his palm are sharp weapons for killing people. And the tentacles behind them are even more difficult to defend against. The attack modes of these things can be far or near, and combined with the advantage in numbers, even Zero, whose rank is far above them, has to wake up twelve minutes to deal with it.
At this time, a researcher broke into Zero's line of fire, and while avoiding the line of fire, he swept towards Zero. But in the next moment, the shadow of zero suddenly disappeared from his eyes. Zero just moved sideways on the spot, and at the same time flashed out of the researcher's sight, he moved forward in his hand. * crossed with the researcher with a cold light, the researcher threw himself three meters, tilted his head when he landed, and then rolled to the ground.
But at some point, he was beheaded by Ling Yi.
Based on the natural connection between the derivative body and the main body, Ke De, who was located in a certain room of the base, suddenly trembled all over his body. He uttered a series of syllables with unknown meanings from his throat, and then broke into a long laugh. Finally, he gasped and said, "Wonderful! It's so wonderful. Accurately calculate the opponent's movements, and exchange the least force for the greatest lethality. He is really a man who is so calm and frightening."
Behind Ke De, dozens of pipelines were disconnected. Realizing that the same number of spin-offs were released by Ke De, Ke De said to the spin-offs that kept walking by, "Go, get as much genetic information as possible from that man. I can't believe it, it's only been half a day." In less time, I have already felt the obvious evolution. If I kill this man, perhaps, I will truly evolve into the perfect creature that old Callahan always said!"
Zero didn't know that a new spawn was coming. A mysterious symbol is floating and spinning in the depths of his right eye, which means that the golden right eye's third-level ability "Prophet" is fully functioning. Through this ability, the movements that the researcher will make are all simulated in Zero's mind. It's just that the number of researchers is quite large, and the simulated data is so large that one can imagine it.
Even though the researcher's rank was below Zero, within just a few minutes, Zero already felt a splitting headache, knowing that he had reached the limit of his ability.
A researcher fell towards Zero from the ceiling above his head. In the eyes of this spinoff, Zero was focused on the battle ahead and seemed not to notice his own existence. But when he was about to pounce on Zero, Zero seemed to have a foresight, and the lightning slipped a little, causing the researcher to fall to the ground. Just as he was about to jump up, Zero had already stepped on him, followed by the dagger, piercing directly into the oval-shaped organ in his brain, stopping all his actions.
And during the whole process, Zero didn't even look at him.
This was the last spawn behavior that the Prophet could capture. The symbol in the pupil of Zero's right eye flashed twice before finally disappearing. At this time, there were still about ten spinoffs left. As for the other researchers, they became corpses under Zero's feet.
After killing the researcher at his feet, Zero heard Beyoncé's cry. He immediately turned around and ran away, and there was a loud noise behind him, but Yan Body chased after him wildly. It's just that in terms of speed, they are far less rapid than Zero. Using the ability of shadow jumping, after a few blinks, Zero has come to the door. He pulled Beyonce into the door, and the latter frantically pressed the button on the side of the door to close the door.
Zero held the machine gun flat, and pulled the trigger with his finger at a constant speed. The researchers wanted to rush into the central control room, so they adopted a straight-line attack method, which invisibly restricted their actions and formed an invisible "channel". In this passage, zero gunpoint is the place of death. A quick researcher will suddenly have a bullet hole between his eyebrows, and when he falls to the ground due to inertia, he will roll a few times, and finally become one of the corpses on the ground.
When the gate was completely closed, at least eight researchers died in this death tunnel. But these things are not afraid, not afraid of death. They only faithfully carried out orders from Kodd, even after Zero and the others hid in the central control room. The two remaining researchers were still outside the gate, using their bone knives and tentacles in vain to leave some fresh marks on the gate.
Zero put down his gun, while Beyoncé looked at the closed alloy door. Then she smiled and said something softly from her mouth. Zero pricked up his ears, only to hear Beyoncé actually say "It's so fucking exciting".
Probably because of the swearing, Beyonce didn't say it out loud, after all, it was against her usual quality.
After blocking the researcher from the door, Beyoncé breathed a sigh of relief. He took a few steps back, but unexpectedly, he seemed to bump into someone. She turned around abruptly and raised her automatic rifle, but Zero put one hand on the barrel.
"It's okay, it can't hurt you." Zero said with a half-smile.
With the help of the tactical lights on her shoulders, Beyoncé could clearly see a tall corpse behind her. Judging from the clothing, he should be male, wearing a rigorous military uniform, with countless military emblems pinned to his chest. But unlike the mummy outside, this corpse has been skeletalized, and the skin and flesh have melted away, leaving only a skeleton. But this man must have been very arrogant in life, otherwise how could he still maintain his standing posture after death.
Just being bumped by Beyonce, all arrogance was wiped out. The corpse fell to the ground with a bang, the bones fell apart, and a cloud of dust was thrown up, causing Beyonce to cough again and again.
Ling Kan's military uniform on the corpse was well-made and not damaged at all. He was not polite at the moment, so he took it off and put it on himself, finally bid farewell to the embarrassing image of the man in underwear. After putting on the military uniform, Beyoncé's eyes brightened, and she felt that this outfit should have been worn on Zero.
Ling didn't realize it at all, he took Beyoncé's hand and walked into the control room. After passing through a short corridor, they turned into the gate marked with a control room icon, and the two came to a semicircular platform. Under the platform is a work area of thousands of square meters. Looking around, rows of desks are arranged in an orderly manner, and all of them are computers from the old era.
There is a staircase on the left and right of the platform leading to the working area below, and Zero and Beyoncé go down from the left staircase. With the tactical light on Beyoncé's shoulder, Zero's right eye has already looked at this area clearly in the night vision mode. It should have been a work area with people coming and going, but now it has become dead silent. What was left was a mess and hundreds of skeletal corpses.
Judging from the clothing of the corpses, they were mostly researchers, but there were also several soldiers and some guards among them. Regardless of whether they are soldiers or researchers, their status is not low. This can be seen from the name tags on their chests. Zero turned around and saw that the lowest status of the name tags also had the title of the head of a certain department.
It seems that after the fall of the base, instead of escaping, the high-level figures of the base poured into the central control room. There is only one possibility for them to do this, that is, the base at that time has cut off all passages to the outside world, and they can only hide in the control room and wait for rescue. Apparently, they couldn't wait for help, otherwise they wouldn't be dead bones now.
"It seems that we still have a little luck."
On one side, Beyonce, who was inspecting the command platform of the base, said happily: "The backup energy source can still work, at least for another ten years without any problem. Some peripheral weapon platforms in the control room can also be used, and those that can still work The only door is the one we came in. Well, wait, there are a couple of monitors that still work."
"Open them."
Beyoncé has received a very comprehensive education, from family management to business operations, from military training to computer programming. After fumbling on the control platform for a few minutes, she already had a general understanding of the base's control system. After simply entering a few commands, the working monitors outside the control room and other places in the base began to operate, and several microcomputer punches also turned on the aiming function. Once unidentified creatures entered their range, they would Enjoy a warm welcome from the bullet.
At the same time, several emergency light sources inside the control room also turned on, saying goodbye to the dark days in the control room. Beyoncé was also able to turn off the tactical lights on her shoulders to save the suit's built-in energy.
Several screens corresponding to the monitors outside the control light up one by one on the wall in front of the command platform. From the screens, the dry corpse outside the base can be seen almost everywhere. Occasionally, one or two researchers would pass by. And outside the control room, besides the two spinoffs still trying to tear the alloy door, there were nearly forty researchers. They circled the control room, seemingly looking for a way into it.
Zero frowned, wondering how many monsters like this are there in the base
