"How's Mou Gang?"
" It's terrible. Although he was injected with Nutrient Fluids, his body's absorption speed is far from keeping up with the requirements for advancement. Because of long-term malnutrition, his body was already a little weak. Although advancement can greatly increase one's abilities, it consumes a large amount of nutrients. I've seen examples of people dying from insufficient nutrients before.”Jie carefully examined Mou Gang's condition and shook his head. He came to a pessimistic conclusion." Unless there's a way to directly inject nutrients into him, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive this.”
Zheng and the others looked sadly at the unconscious middle-aged man. The little girl was crying her heart out. If it wasn't for Mou Gang, she would have been like the other mercenaries and turned into minced meat in the laser tunnel.
The battle with the Enhanced Crawlers only lasted for a few minutes. However, in this short period of time, everyone had been in danger one after another. The Enhanced Crawlers 'recovery and defense had been greatly enhanced. The submachine gun could only leave small wounds on their bodies, and the effects of other weapons were greatly weakened. The most terrifying thing was that their intelligence seemed to have increased. After paying the life of a Crawler to verify Sun Bing and Jie's outstanding combat strength, they no longer fought with them head-on. Other than three of them attacking the rookies and mercenaries, the rest surrounded the two of them and attacked them from the sides and behind, forcing them to fight back to back and unable to meet up with their companions. The strength of the newbies and mercenaries was far inferior to the two veterans. Soon, one of the mercenaries was sacrificed, but the remaining Crawlers suddenly retreated before the glass door opened, as if they had received an order.
That was not important anymore. What was important was that they survived.
However, Mou Gang fell.
At the critical moment of life and death, he successfully achieved the rare 'advancement' among adventurers. He broke through the limits of humanity and understood Zheng's reminder in less than half a second with smooth and agile movements. He not only saved himself but also his two companions (After this life-and-death battle, the adventurers had already recognized the mercenaries as their companions). However, the danger of advancing was extremely great. It seemed that Mou Gang had saved others but not himself.
Zheng tried his best to ignore the pain on his face. The first aid spray's healing effect was indeed very good, but it had the side effect of increasing the pain of the wound. He helped Io bandage the wounds on her arms. Just now, she had blocked the Crawler's sharp claws to protect the long-haired female mercenary, Ryan. Fortunately, she had the nunchaku to block it a little. Otherwise, she might not have been able to keep her hands. Even so, the martial artist who had both her arms severely injured had basically lost her fighting ability in this adventure.
Sun Bing was half-naked as she guarded the exit of the passage with her huge axe. He was burning with rage. If it weren't for the restriction of not being able to leave Matthew's side for 100 meters, he would have already rushed out to kill those damn Crawlers. "Hurry up and come over, damn beast! I swear, this time, I will definitely chop you all into pieces!”The angry young man muttered softly, unaware that the murderous aura on his body was so dense that it was almost tangible. It made the mercenaries who had been through hundreds of battles tremble in fear. Those intelligent crawlers would never have the courage to approach this place.
After entering the central control room, the mercenary captain Matthew had been busy setting up temporary bunkers under the command post. After all, the dead were gone, and the living still had to resist the next attack of those monsters. However, when he saw his savior's life in danger, he couldn't help but sigh.
" Actually, it's not like there's no other way..." Alice suddenly said," Those monsters seem to need a lot of nutrients. We can't feed them slowly on the battlefield. I think Umbrella must have the technology to increase the speed of nutrient absorption."”
"Yes, the T-Virus!" Zheng jumped up like he had been electrocuted.”However, he immediately shook his head." No, that one will turn you into a zombie."”
"He'll die if he becomes a zombie, and he'll die if he can't make it through the advancement.”Jie made a prompt decision." Sun Bing, inject him with the T-virus and tie him up with alloy ropes. Hopefully, he can hold on until he returns."”
Sun Bing also understood that now was not the time to hesitate. She took out the safe and opened the solid box under Ryan's dumbfounded gaze. She took out a T-virus and syringe, then was stunned for a moment. She looked up awkwardly and asked,"Who knows how to inject? I might just kill him with a needle.”
"I've studied medicine before. I'll give him an injection.”Ryan and Matthew walked over together. The former took the medicine and injection from Sun Bing's hand and prepared to inject Mou Gang. The latter walked to Jie and asked about the situation,"Those bracelets that can store things are really magical! Can you have a good talk with us when you get back? I'm getting more and more interested in your organization. Perhaps we can make some deals. Although you are powerful, there are still some situations where you are unable to do so. We can help you solve some small problems. In exchange, can you sell us some of these incredible equipment?”
"Are you talking about the storage bracelet? That is a higher-level one, and it is a special equipment for the two of us. However, I can help you find a low-level storage ring that can store about one cubic meter of things. However, you have to cultivate internal energy for a period of time. Without internal energy, you can't use this kind of equipment.”Jie immediately lied. He found that since he partnered with Sun Bing, his lying skills had improved greatly.
After the injection of the T-virus, Mou Gang's condition improved significantly. His deathly pale face gradually turned red, and his body no longer lost weight. It seemed that the crazy absorption of nutrients by the T-virus had saved his life. Anyway, it was very convenient to replenish nutrients. Sun Bing simply pried open his mouth, grabbed a handful of concentrated nutrient pills, and stuffed them directly into it. Then, she drank a large cup of nutrient fluid without considering whether he would choke to death. Previously, a veteran who practiced the " Undying Body of Beast King " had the ability to absorb nutrients and rebuild his body. For this, he had stored a large number of nutrient fluids and pills. Unfortunately, he died in his dream when he was facing Fred, and the undying body did not work at all. However, his savings were not wasted. This time, he saved Mou Gang's life.
With inhuman strength, Sun Bing tied Mou Gang up with a thumb-thick metal rod as a rope. Sun Bing walked to Kaplan's side to watch him hack into the Fire Queen's main system. Although he had a rough personality, the young man was more or less a computer nerd. Seeing this scene that only appeared in hacker movies, he was full of curiosity.
Unfortunately, hacking into the system in reality was actually very boring. He pried open the case, connected the wires, ran the cracking software, and then waited. After waiting for a moment, Sun Bing was a little impatient. She pulled out her ax and walked out.
"Don't go too far. Be careful of a hundred meters." Zheng quickly reminded him, then his face turned bitter as he received a deduction.
Just as Sun Bing was feeling restless, the lights in the room suddenly went out and lit up again a few seconds later. Kaplan cheered," Success! I've gained control of the Fire Queen!”
"Follow Matthew. You've completed the mission, Control the Fire Queen. Reward: 100 points per person. Distance restriction removed. Final mission: Survive for five hours. Upon completion, you will be rewarded with 1000 points and return to the Main God's Space. Time remaining: 40 minutes." The Sovereign's notification echoed in the minds of every adventurer.
Jie was relieved,"It seems like Mou Gang can survive. He won't turn into a zombie in less than an hour."”
"The infected female mercenary in the plot only lasted for more than an hour.”Zheng sighed and voiced his concern." Mou Gang's body is far weaker than those mercenaries. I'm worried he won't be able to make it.”
Jie smiled and patted him on the shoulder." Don't worry. The power of advancement is unimaginable. A person's physical strength will be greatly strengthened to the point where it exceeds any normal person. Even a strong person like Sun Bing has only advanced once. Mou Gang will make it through. You guys take good care of him. I'll go talk to the mercenaries.”
After some negotiations (during which Sun Bing repeatedly threatened them with force), the mercenaries reluctantly agreed to let them take away all the information about the Fire Queen. Jie took out a Master Card USB and copied all the information on the main computer of the Honeycomb under Kaplan's dumbfounded gaze.
Obtained all the research data of the beehive laboratory. Reward: 500 points.
"This is amazing! This is unbelievable!" The computer expert's IT soul was burning, even surpassing the fear of facing Demon." Is this the memory device you invented? Such a small volume actually had such a large capacity! This was a professional server! A USB drive was able to copy all its information into it. What kind of material was this thing made of?”The more he spoke, the more excited he became. He even wanted to snatch the USB from Jie's hand, but he was knocked down by Sun Bing with a punch. A giant axe that seemed to be able to kill him with its own weight was stuck on his neck.
"If you're interested, I can give you one the next time we meet, but I don't think you can develop the technology inside.”Jie had heard from the veterans that they had given this USB drive to the scientists in Starship Troopers, but even with the technology of the Interstellar Era, they could not replicate the same product. Resident Evil was at most at the level of the late 21st century, so it was impossible to crack this kind of unfathomable technology. Anyway, after returning this time, it was inevitable that they would come back to train the newcomers and use some cheap resources to build a good relationship with the storyline characters. Perhaps he could get some extra help when he faced the Resident Evil series adventure in the future.
"If only my teammates could be more mature, smarter, and have a better vision! Although Sun Bing has a convincing strength in combat, but--I can only say that perhaps people with strong limbs will be more simple-minded..." Jie couldn't help but criticize his partner," I'm just a half-baked soldier who graduated from high school and served in the army for three years. After I retired, I only worked as a security guard for a few years. It's too difficult for me to think far ahead and see far!”Of course, he hadn't considered the rookies who might not survive this adventure.
"The Fire Queen has been shut down, and the main board has been removed by you. I think your work is done. What are you going to do next?" Alice looked worried." I don't think those monsters went far. They just retreated temporarily for some unknown reason. If we want to leave, we can't avoid fighting them.”
She did not finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant. The Strengthened Crawlers went from light to dark. If they launched a surprise attack on the road, other than the two super powerhouses, everyone else's lives might be in danger.
However, the adventurers knew something that she did not. The Flame Queen had been rebooted, and even the main board had been removed. The backup system could only maintain lighting at best, and could no longer isolate the zombies and other monsters that might exist. On the way back, not only would they have to face the Crawlers, but they would also have to face the tide of zombies. There might even be something even more terrifying...
"From now on, it's time to risk your life.”Jie didn't care if he would lose points. He said to Zheng,"Tell us everything you remember. A little detail can save our lives."”
Zheng thought for a moment, then slowly introduced the plot he remembered. Of course, he tried his best to modify the content to avoid losing points."The email they sent me introduced the research situation here. Just now, we accidentally found the main topic of the research institute in the carriage: The T-virus proved that what they said was completely reliable.”
"The T-virus is a biochemical weapon developed by this underground laboratory. It can infect and activate the human body. The human body will become a zombie and lose all consciousness and thinking. As they continued to " eat ", zombies would gradually evolve and become more terrifying creatures, such as crawlers.”
"The most terrifying thing is that this virus is extremely contagious. I don't know why the virus leaked, but it was obvious that in an extremely short period of time, everyone in the research institute was infected. From the records of the Fire Queen, it could be seen that it had sealed the hive and killed all the personnel to prevent the virus from leaking.”
Alice's face was pale and her voice was trembling.""Ryan and I are also members of the hive. Does that mean we're infected too?”
(You're infected.) Zheng thought so but lied without hesitation."I think you are the only survivors. If you were infected, the virus would have broken out in the four hours since we met. Both the email and the video emphasized that the duration of the infection varied according to one's physique, but even the strongest person could only last less than two hours. Perhaps Sun Bing could last five hours, but you definitely couldn't. Since you haven't become zombies yet, I'm sure you're not infected."”
" Originally, with the Hive's own isolation and defense system, the infected zombies would only slowly rot and be destroyed in the sealed and water-filled room. But just now, Mr. Kaplan rashly restarted and dismantled the Fire Queen. Now, those zombies, and even more terrifying things, may have gained freedom. And the barrier between the beehive and the ground has long been destroyed by us…"
"We have opened the gates of hell.”
————————————————————————
The main character of this chapter is Zheng. I always felt that Heng was deliberately belittling him, just like how he overestimated Xuan's intelligence. A person who had been struggling in society for many years and could still become a company's director could not be an innocent fool.
One single-celled organism was enough.
Therefore, the Zheng I wrote was a leader with both wisdom and courage. He was a hot-blooded and warm person, but also a top expert with strategy and ruthlessness. He was similar to the demon Zheng in the original novel.
Perhaps the more attentive readers will realize that I have set the rule that " Adventurers cannot attack each other in the Main God's Space " because I believe that a perfect system would not allow such a non-technical way of survival. I will also describe some teams that adopt similar breeding methods, but their methods are much more sophisticated than the crude and unaesthetic methods in the original novel.
The demon Zheng would still appear, but it would be vastly different from the original.
That's the end of the spoiler. Please look forward to the next update.
