N City, District B, suburb of Crossport.
Three operators wearing camouflage protective clothing were lying under a big tree by the river. The area they were in was covered with branches and leaves. Only the black barrel of the gun protruded from the leaves, motionless.
"I said captain, we have been lying here for almost a week. It rained so heavily yesterday. The people above said there are changes every day, but in the end there are no changes. Do you think these researchers are fooling us? Woolen cloth?"
A relatively thin man lying on the left side moved and complained softly.
"Shan Peng! Shut that stinky mouth of yours when you're on a mission, or I'll put a decoy bomb on your ass!"
The man lying in the center responded fiercely without raising his head.
"No, no, no, I'm the wrong captain."
The young man named Shan Peng quickly begged for mercy and continued to monitor him motionlessly.
But before long, he couldn't restrain his urge to talk nonsense and asked.
"Hey, Xiao Li, when do you think this organization will arrange for us to be strengthened? I heard that the assassination team next door has obtained the quota for strengthening. Why are we still here guarding this piece of shit?"
The young man whom Shan Peng called Xiao Li tilted his head slightly, as if he was afraid of the captain's order just now. He just glanced at Shan Peng and did not answer anything.
The captain lying in the middle seemed to have some secret in his heart that was touched by Shan Peng's words. He did not reprimand him again, but picked up what Shan Peng had said.
"The reason why the Secret Assassination Team received the enhancement this time has been announced by the organization. It is to prevent any accidents from the aberrations from affecting the plan."
"Then why didn't the organization choose us? We, the Greedy Wolf Team, must have made a lot of efforts in the early stage of the plan."
The young man named Shan Peng complained angrily, as if what he missed was not this opportunity to strengthen, but his recent wife.
"Okay, shut your mouth, the organization will not forget us. At 3 o'clock, give me the two secondary infected bodies."
"Okay!" Shan Peng readily agreed and loaded the gun skillfully.
Just listen to two soft "puff" sounds. On the bridge 100 meters away, two zombies were shot in the head and fell to the ground.
Seeing that the zombies had been dealt with, Shan Peng adjusted his gun and re-aimed at the giant humanoid chrysalis hanging upside down under the bridge.
No. 22 Research Station Action Team - Greedy Wolf
This is the codename of their team. There are five members in the team: captain Chen Lang, sniper Shan Peng, assaulter Wang Yan, assaulter Fan Jian, and operations substitute Li Ming.
Since the plan was implemented, their team was originally responsible for guarding Research Station No. 22 to prevent the intervention of N city government forces. But not long after the disaster broke out, the organization issued a dispatch order, ordering them to come to the crossport in Area B to monitor the changes in the aberrations.
The giant pupa hanging upside down under the bridge, with its entire body appearing gray and white, was the aberration they wanted to monitor.
Codename: King Butterfly.
Their vacant guard posts were filled by the assassination team transferred from H City.
"Captain, I heard that the assassin was transferred here because the project at Research Station No. 7 was abandoned." Shan Peng said mysteriously.
Chen Lang's eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at the aberrant body, and he turned his head slightly, signaling Shan Peng to continue.
Seeing that the captain was interested in listening, Shan Peng continued to speak excitedly.
"I heard that the experimental subject cultivated by Research Station No. 7 was originally well cultivated, but the people at No. 7 did not know what they were up to. They wanted to inject the experimental subject with a king-level virus, saying that they wanted to test the absence of the apostle. What will happen to the king-level virus in your body?"
Speaking of this, Shan Peng paused and deliberately made a mistake. But Chen Lang's sharp eyes swept over him, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to delay and continued talking immediately.
"Those of us who don't understand, all know how this king-level virus can be tolerated by ordinary living things. There were several experimental projects on king-level viruses in the past, but there was no news after that. I guess, 7 Experimental subject No. 1 died just like those experimental subjects."
Shan Peng sniffed, seeming to regret the failure of the experiment at Research Station No. 7.
"Did you get the news from An Xi?" Chen Lang pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice.
"That's right, there is a kid in the Undercover who is greedy for money. I gave him 5 contribution points to buy this news." Shan Peng said proudly, seeming to feel that his ability to inquire has made a huge contribution to his team. .
"If the project is just abandoned, the action team will not be dispatched. After all, there are still plans to be laid out, and the action team's protection will be needed." Chen Lang murmured with a trace of fear in his eyes.
"What do you mean, captain?" Shan Peng also felt something was wrong at this time. Guarding the research station was the highest priority among their action team's tasks. All members of the assassination team were dispatched to Research Station No. 22 in N City. That means...
"Research Station No. 7 was completely destroyed. Dark Thorn escaped."
"So Experimental Subject No. 7 did not die like other experimental subjects injected with the king-level virus, but caused the destruction of Research Station No. 7?" Li Ming, who was listening quietly on the side, suddenly spoke, following the captain's words. Made his own inference.
"That's right, and this time the whole assassination team is strengthened, I guess it is probably related to the incident at Research Station No. 7." A trace of worry flashed in Chen Lang's eyes.
"So, the entire Dark Assassin team received enhancements because their genes may have been contaminated?" Shan Peng moved his arms and moved his body a few centimeters toward the captain.
"This is all speculation. The specific situation has not been announced, so I can't make a judgment." After Chen Lang said this, he fell silent.
In fact, everyone knows very well that the process of receiving enhancement is to directly inject the secondary virus into the body, and then supplement it with tissue immune drugs. It is said that there will be a high success rate to obtain enhancement, but the specific success rate is determined by the organization. It has not been announced. After all, if the enhancement fails, it will be directly infected and become a zombie.
Therefore, few people in the action team would take the initiative to apply for enhancement, except for the weirdo Shan Peng.
As a sniper, he is extremely enthusiastic about the effects of strengthening.
"Hey Xiao Li, where do you think the virus samples in this tissue came from? The infection efficiency and lethality are really unbelievable!" Shan Peng saw that the topic at Research Station No. 7 had come to an end, so he raised another topic, We can't blame him for being talkative, after all, this surveillance mission is indeed too boring.
"You kid really has had enough life! You dare to ask about this! You are not afraid that the superiors will chop you up and feed you..." Chen Lang, who was originally calm, immediately changed his face when he heard this, and lowered his voice and scolded fiercely, but the words Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a sudden movement.
The giant pupa that was originally motionless now began to twist slightly. As it moved, bursts of harsh noises came from it, like the chirping of cicadas, but the frequency was obviously much higher.
"No, the aberration has moved abnormally. All team members, please pay attention and wait for the order to fire." Chen Lang reacted quickly, pointed the muzzle of the gun at the aberration hanging upside down under the bridge, and opened the public channel in the headset.
"Yes, Fan Jian received it." "Yes, Wang Yan received it." The voices of a man and a woman came from the earphones at the same time. These two people were the two assaulters of the Greedy Wolf Team - Wang Yan and Fan Jian.
"Shan Peng received it!" Shan Peng, who had a playful smile on his face, changed his careless look before, and pointed the scope of his sniper rifle at the giant chrysalis hanging upside down a hundred meters away, and responded in a deep voice.
"Li Ming received it!" Xiao Li, who was lying on the right, put down the telescope in his hand, took out a compact laptop from the backpack behind his back, and started data analysis.
After a period of regular trembling, the gray-white giant pupa began to slowly turn reddish-brown in appearance. It seemed that liquid was constantly seeping out of it, dyeing the shell, making it look extremely strange.
"The life energy fluctuates violently and is about to reach level three!" Li Ming stared at the constantly beating numbers on the screen. The data returned by the micro-detectors attached to the aberration all showed this code name. The aberrant form of the "King Butterfly" is rapidly waking up from its dormant state.
"Is he finally going to break out of his shell..." Shan Peng's muscles tensed up. If something went wrong, he would pull the trigger and kill the aberrant body.
"Where is the Apostle?" Chen Lang asked into the headset. The changes in front of him exceeded his expectations. He thought it would be a long time before the aberration broke out of its shell, but judging from the data, it was estimated that it would not be long. After a while, it will break out of its shell.
The mission of his team has also changed from monitoring the aberrations to assisting the apostle "Judas" in suppressing the aberrations. If "Judas" cannot suppress the aberrations, his team will kill the aberrations and bring the body back to 22. No. research station.
"Within 5 minutes, please do your best to suppress the aberrations before the apostle arrives." A cold female voice came from the earphones. Chen Lang didn't waste any more nonsense and began to assign combat tasks to his men.
"Five minutes, I hope this monster will break out of its shell slowly!" Chen Lang prayed silently in his heart.
As for why a fully armed team with live ammunition would be afraid of such an awakening aberration, the reason probably comes from Li Ming's words: "The fluctuation of life energy has vaguely reached level three."
You must know that the experimental subject cultivated by their No. 22 research station, the six-eyed parrot, only broke through the second level some time ago. This is still a single mutated beast after being infected by the virus, and it needs to be tied with an iron chain as thick as a baby's forearm. , some weapons with smaller kinetic energy, such as pistols, can no longer damage it.
According to the information provided by the organization, among the creatures that also have level 2 life energy fluctuations, the secondary infected ones are the weakest, the single ones are slightly stronger, and then there are the hybrids, and above the hybrids, It's a mysterious aberration.
Among them, secondary infected bodies, single bodies, and hybrids can all be suppressed by king-level virus infected bodies, that is, they obey the orders of king-level infected bodies. The aberrations are full of unknowns.
According to the information released by the organization, in the early experiments, some mutants were able to be suppressed by the king-level virus infection, but some did not react at all, and instead showed a desire to kill the opponent.
And their Research Station No. 22 happened to have one of the thirteen apostles - the Thirteenth Apostle Judas. And he is also the only humanoid apostle.
Therefore, the organization did not directly order the eradication of the existence of aberrations this time, but chose to dispatch Judas to suppress them.
If it can succeed, then the organization will have more combat power, and the organization's plan can be better implemented; if it cannot be suppressed, then the Greedy Wolf Team will assist Apostle Judas to kill the aberrations.
"It is said that this Judas ate the experimental subjects of our research station two days ago, or he ate them raw..."
When Shan Peng heard that Judah would arrive in 5 minutes, he couldn't help but shuddered all over and muttered in a voice as thin as a mosquito's groan.
When Chen Lang heard this, he glared at this talkative guy. He was now on a public channel. If this talkative idiot said the wrong thing and let his superiors listen, how could his team have a good life? .
"Puff!" A sound like clothes being torn came from under the bridge. It immediately added a layer of heaviness to the already depressing atmosphere.
Through the sight on the gun, Chen Lang could see a human face covered with carapace slowly protruding from the crack at the bottom of the giant chrysalis.
