The entire base was shaken by a violent explosion, the solid walls cracking and falling down. All the gathered virus parasites were pressed under the fragmented building, their whereabouts unknown.
Inside the core test area
The armed Resistance soldiers were afraid.
They originally had a dozen people, but now there were only a few people still standing here. The rest were either infected with the virus or had died in the parasitesâ siege.
Listening to the explosion outside the core experimental area, the room fell into a desperate silence.
The middle-aged man with glasses was lying weakly on the ground, his abdomen stained crimson, and blood was constantly flowing from his mouth.
Apparently, he was dying.
âThis serum! Is the only way! Although you are the Resistance, but ⊠khack! I can only hope that you can look at the big picture! Daniel, cough! Daniel will help you find their main bodyâŠâ The middle-aged man took the young manâs hand beside him, and talked no more.
âCaptain! We âŠâ The enchanting and beautiful woman looked Captian Norton.
Nortonâs face was stained with the blood of his comrade-in-arms, and his eyes were full of determination.
âDo what he says! We have no choice now!â
In addition, several surviving soldiers also silently agreed with the captainâs decision. After all, although they opposed the federal dictatorship, they werenât ruthless butchers, and for innocent people, they didnât have the heart to see them become infected by the virus.
Near the body of the middle-aged man, the young man with tears on his face, Daniel, looked up, his brown eyes full of grief.
âLike the doctor said, we need to go to the federal government building in the city center. The cityâs air filter master valve is at the top of that building. As long as the serum is injected into it, everyone can be saved! The main body of the virus is also there! We can wipe out all these damned viruses!â Daniel clenched the serum in his hand, his eyes full of hatred.
In this way, the rebels left the ruined underground experimental base in the aftermath of the explosion.
Daniel sat on the shuttle and watched the underground experimental base gradually move away, his face operating heavily on the light brain.
Where the rebels couldnât see, he lowered the power of his contact lenses.
Blinking, Danielâs brown pupils were as clear as ever.                               -FromăFatal Infectionă
On the stealth shuttle, Captain Norton looked at the group of strangely dressed mercenaries below and frowned.
âCaptain, are these mercenaries really reliable? Thereâre even a few delicate girls!â A dark-skinned resistance soldier voiced his doubts, âAh-! Iâm wrong! Ai Li, you and those people are the same!â The black soldier, who was slammed in the back of the head by a gunâs butt, revealed a sheepish smile, his white teeth particularly noticeable.
Ai Li lifted the heavy laser gun back into her hands, scornfully berating: âYou men are no better than women! Especially you, rookie!â
The tall, dark man touched his tortured skull and closed his mouth with great interest. He often counted down in actual training, so he still respected Ai Li, who is always in the top three as a woman, but usually spoke flowery words, having no control at the moment.
âLetâs go! Letâs take a look!â Captain Norton, with a cold face, took off the shuttle first, and several others followed suit and jumped.
Underneath the shuttle were the confused reincarnators.
The girl with ponytails beamed and approached the man with a beard standing on the side, and said, âHey, uncle! I think you look very experienced, what do you do now?â
The man frowned and clenched the heavy weapon in his hand, and said, âDonât rely on me too close, weâre not acquainted!â
The twintail girl looked at the manâs disgusted expression, stomped her feet, and said nothing else.
A reincarnator not far away suddenly yelled: âWhat is this acting set? Hurry up and let Lao Tzu leave! Damn! I have no time to play with you!â Then the reincarnator tried to run away.
Bam!!!!
The reincarnatorâs reward for trying to escape? A blood flower, made out of their brains. (S: heh, what my head comes up with~âŠâŠ.. huh? Why are you all running away?!)
âDo you son-of-a-bitch mercenaries want to escape?â A woman with long brown hair and red lips was wearing a black combat suit, her cool voice pointed towards the panicking reincarnators.
[Now announcing the character template information for the reincarnators: For mercenaries hired by the Resistance Army, the task is to blow up the underground experimental base in H city under federal management together. Completion of the task rewards 800 points. If mission failure occurs, death is inevitable. ă
The announcement of the Lord God sounded again, but this time, the restless reincarnators were all quiet; it was obvious that the indigenous woman in front of them was horrifying enough to scare them out of their wits.
The man with a beard narrowed his eyes, his wife and daughterâs voice and smiles appeared again in front of him. He took a long breath and stood up calmly and confidently, saying, âDear employers, Iâm sorry, this was an accident. We donât intend to renege! â
âWell, thatâs great!â Ai Li retracted her gun and looked at the crowd coldly. âBe ready, Iâll open the road in a moment!â
Having said that, Ai Li walked to the closed front door of the base, took out an identity certificate and put it in front of the electronic sensor.
âCertificate accepted, I wish you a pleasant workday, Mr. Zhou.â The system issued a soothing female voice, and the door slowly opened.
Ai Li glanced at the dull Asian manâs face on the identification card and snorted in disgust. (S: I wanna give her an uppercut to the jaw so fvcking bad)
If she bumped into that fake boyfriend, donât blame her for erasing his existence.
âAchooââ Zhou Yu sneezed uncontrollably, feeling a little dizzy.
All this must be his illusion!
Zhou Yu stroked the mark on his wrist in distress, and was at a loss.
He was processing the data just now, but suddenly felt that Birus was near him and the mark on his wrist heated up.
But when he looked up, he only found the lab director â who always looked for Zhou Yu to start some trouble and was middle-aged, balding, and, putting it nicely, pudgy â passed by outside his laboratory. He could see the fat manâs pale, expressionless face through the glass wall.
But what was creepier was that Zhou Yu got a sense of kindness from that silhouette.
He must have a fever, his brain cells were surely roasted to crisps to have that kind of misconception.
Zhou Yu hid in the hand-washing compartment of the laboratory and felt very weak.
Had his body not adapted properly? Or was his lover split again? But that didnât make sense, this world didnât have a magical background, how could his lover be in multiple bodies?
âWarning! 1st level alert in progress! Strangers have broken into the laboratory!â
Just as Zhou Yu was still struggling with his possible sickness, a harsh alarm sounded outside the laboratory, exactly like yesterday.
Zhou Yu walked out of the bathroom and saw a chaotic mess. The screams of researchers echoed one after another.
The entire experimental base was shrouded in red light, and, just like yesterday, everyone was taken over by panic.
âWhatâs going on these days? Is it really necessary to do this every day? This isnât a security exercise! What are the baseâs guards doing?â A bad-tempered researcher threw his intellect at the floor and cursed about the guardâs incompetence.
âAlert lifted!â
Almost immediately after the researcherâs voice fell, the alarm disappeared, and the lights in the base returned to their former white.
ââŠâ The researcher stayed strangely in place, uncomfortably accepting his colleaguesâ curious gazes.
âHa ha ha ha! Yeah! Go Tom!â
âCome here, curse a little more, maybe the guards will come and apologize to you!â
The crowd relaxed as the alarm was lifted and even joked.
Bang! !! !!
With a gunshot, overwhelmed Tomâs head turned into a pile of ground meat, the plasma splashing onto the other researchers.
âNobody move!â A strange researcher in a white uniform stood at the door of the laboratory, holding a ray gun in his hand, his expression indifferent.
The researcher âs features, by who knows where from, were smashed into a ball by unknown weapons, but their flesh and blood was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within a few seconds, the scars disappeared. There was only blood on his face, echoing those cold and scary gray eyes.
Zhou Yu hid in the bathroom again after the crazy researcher fired a shot and quickly took out the gun that he carried with him.
The original owner was a very timid person, so he always had guns in his home. The firepower wasnât great, but fortunately, it was easy to carry.
Although he didnât know what that guyâs purpose, looking at his clear and practiced way of killing, it was better to escape.
Zhou Yu decided to hide here, give him a shot when the researcher came in, and then escaped.
âAh ah! No noââ! Let me go! Ah!â
âWhat happened to you? You guys!-Ahhhh!â
âPaul! Arenât we best friends? You canâtââ phtsssââ!!!!
After a while, Zhou Yu didnât hear anymore gunshots, only the screams of the originalâs former colleagues. Everything gradually fell silent.
Zhou Yu clenched the gun in his hand and stared at the door of the bathroom.
He must escape, his lover was still waiting for him at home, he couldnât die here.
After the last sharp scream, the outside was completely quiet, Zhou Yu staying in the bathroom could only hear his own heavy breathing and sparse footsteps outside.
These footsteps lingered in the laboratory outside, seemingly searching for a fish that slipped from the net.
Zhou Yu held his breath and quietly backed into the last compartment.
His prediction was wrong. Listening to the footsteps outside, the murderers consisted of more than just that researcher. They were a mob.
Unfortunately, there were only three rounds of bullets in his gun, which wasnât enough to support his escape. This wasnât even one of the new, popular laser guns, but an ancient handgun of which the production had already been eliminated.
After all, the original owner only entered the experimental base for more than a year, and most of the money saved was handed over to the so-called girlfriend, he could only afford this bargain.
Hiding in the compartment, Zhou Yu glanced down at his wrist, his face helpless.
Although he didnât want to admit it, he still had to remark that the homing signal made by Cthulhu mightâve had a bug.
He wasnât close to anyone now, but the mark was still heating up.
The sound of footsteps outside were moving farther and farther away, they seemed to have given up searching this area and left.
But Zhou Yu didnât relax his vigilance, still staying quietly motionless in the compartment.
In his first life, there were often such traps in his lover Feng Xingâs ghost realm. On the surface, the monster was gone. In fact, it was waiting for you to make the first move before jumping on you. Caution was best.
Sure enough, after a while, Zhou Yu heard a creak, and the door to the bathroom was opened.
An unfamiliar researcher came in, and the gray pupils reflected the interior of the empty toilet stall.
Zhou Yu, who was hiding in the last compartment, held his breath.
