Uni-President Technology has imagined no less than ten ways of combat for "infected" individuals, including strengthening the functions of prosthetics, upgrading operating systems, and even having combat methods similar to biological weapons.
But no one thought that this experiment, specially designed to "infect" individuals, would end in this way.
Before the battle began, the "infection" had spread to other cybermaniacs and assimilated quickly, and the company still does not know how this "infection" spread.
However, they at least made new progress from this experiment.
"Insect Swarm".
And this seems to be in response to the sound they intercepted in the surveillance video.
"Join us and become one of us."
The "us" among them probably refers to the insect swarm.
This is a term they have never heard of before, and they have no way of determining whether the "infection" is the worm that flashed through the surveillance system or something else. The only thing they can confirm is that they have no idea whether Without realizing it, some kind of creature beyond recognition has parasitized in District 17.
Falena looked at Lu Xiang and Song Lan with inquiring eyes. She couldn't even confirm that the head of the law enforcement department was a human being, and said that there was another individual parasitized by the insect swarm.
Unknown things often evoke deep fears in people's hearts.
Feeling her heartbeat getting faster and faster, and her emotions gradually getting out of control, Falena quickly opened the drawer, took out an object similar to a spray, and took a deep breath.
In fact, Song Lan is worried both inside and outside. You can completely understand the way Shen Dagui looks at you, because even you yourself know what is going on on the other side of the holographic projection, and you have only once believed in Lu Xiang. Yes, he is a mole sent by the insect swarm.
Later, Lu Xiang only mentioned that the Shadow Guards possessed a certain talent in life, but even you didn't expect Falena to be able to assimilate all the cybermaniacs outside the laboratory in such a short period of time.
So quickly that it looks like a real infection.
You once said that a similar plague broke out in a village in a neutral country. In just one night, the villagers turned into monsters like cybermaniacs. However, the Devourer's infection is controllable and is currently in the garbage. Outside of people who work in the field, everyone except Graves becomes a little crazy.
The "battle" on the other side of the holographic projection continues.
Following Shen Dagui's order, the isolation door leading to the lower level was hurriedly opened.
No one appeared at the door.
My whole body is covered with metal coating, and even my face is covered by a helmet. However, compared with the completely prosthetic bone, that person's figure is still in the category of an abnormal person.
"Kill us."
Samuel Enhao avoided the presence of Song Lan and Lu Xiang and gave the order directly.
For some reason, you always feel that what happened that night seemed like an experiment to the two people behind you, and as bystanders, what we can do is not let the experiment continue as much as possible.
The moment he received the order, two cold energy cutting blades similar to Falena's were stretched out from under the visitor's arms.
The last moment, my figure disappeared from the place.
After all the members of the Shadow Guard reacted, I appeared in front of Shen Dagui. The scorching cold blade had already cut off my head, holding it out of my hand like a trophy.
Lu Xiang's eyes widened when he saw that scene.
The same overload system as Desolate Bones!
Although there is still a clear gap between the acceleration and the desolate bones, it is enough to support me in achieving instantaneous movement based on the dynamic vision of an abnormal person.
There is no doubt that it is not the humanoid weapon mentioned by Rashaor, a successful work of unified scientific and technological research.
Even Falena, whose various body functions were weakened by the Devourer, could not fully react to the sudden attack.
However, what spewed out from the broken part was not blood, but countless squirming granules. Even though she lost her head, Falena's body did not stop moving. Although the humanoid weapon reacted immediately, But the knife struck me firmly under the chest, leaving traces visible under the metal coating.
Falena caught the head that was thrown up in panic and placed it under her neck. In the blink of an eye, the flesh sprouts repaired the broken part, and there were no traces of being chopped.
At the same time, one after another explosions filled the whole room, and all the Shadow Guards armed with long-range strike prosthetics launched attacks. It was as if we all had the same cerebellum, filling the blind spots of our respective firepower coverage. .
Faced with the retaliation of humanoid weapons, we did not dodge at all. The body penetrated by the cold energy weapon would recover within a few seconds.
With the tacit cooperation of the Shadow Guards, the humanoid weapons became more and more embarrassed. I had to flee in seven places to avoid as much damage as possible to me.
There is no way to continuously use an overloaded system.
Lu Xiang quickly came to that conclusion.
Except for the blow that struck Falena, the opponent spent a very small amount of time dodging. It could be seen across the screen that the humanoid weapon was becoming more and more anxious.
Since it is a successful work created by unified science and technology, it is so small and half-hearted that it cannot guarantee human autonomy.
Human emotions allow me to maintain a calm and calm mentality when facing a dozen cybermaniacs who are almost dead at the same time.
In terms of performance, I am far better than those in the middle class. In terms of life, I have wiped them all out long ago. But the real problem now is the unknown creature parasitic in the body of the cyber madman. It is that This creature gave us the body of death.
Advance.
That's the only reasonable judgment I can make after confusing those creatures.
So when the last overload started, I disappeared without a trace.
"Self-repair ability can make up for the performance, dragging the battle into a war of attrition..."
Samuel stared at the screen and muttered to himself.
Although there is currently no way to evaluate the lower limit of the self-repair mechanism, it is difficult to tell from the situation on the ground and outside. If the two sides are placed in a closed arena in life, our humanoid weapons will definitely lose in the end.
The overload system will put a very small load on the body and mind, and we will definitely be able to destroy the enemy in a short time. Excessive consumption will become the cause of our defeat.
"Boring."
Shen Dagui commented, "You have heard that among certain groups of mutant creatures, there is a social system called hive consciousness."
Judging from the way these cyber maniacs share a cerebellum, it seems to be completely consistent with the current situation.
"Now, all that's left is the last experiment."
That's the latest instruction just conveyed to you by the management.
Before thinking of the possibility of hive consciousness, the researchers immediately started a discussion on whether it would make sense to eliminate worker bees in that structure, and the people who really control us may be standing behind our eyes at this moment.
While talking, there was a heavy sound at the door.
You continued, "Director Lu invited him to misunderstand. It was not directed at him, but to verify one of your conjectures."
In an instant, a figure burst into the office, waving a cold energy cutting blade and heading straight towards Song Lan.
Continuous use of the overload system caused my consciousness to fall into a brief trance, and blood rushed down my nostrils, ears and corners of my eyes, but that was my only chance to eliminate the male king of the swarm!
"boom--!"
At the last moment, my body was knocked out by an oncoming object.
Seeing that scene, Samuel's pupils shrank.
Have you ever seen clearly when that flesh-and-blood arm appeared? It is completely divorced from the concept of human beings in this life, and more like some kind of biological weapon that was once developed by Yun Gang Biopharmaceuticals.
That also means that that creature actually followed the acceleration of the overload system and even pushed me against the wall at a slower speed?
The attacker tried to wave the cold energy cutting blade in his hand, but the scorching cold temperature was not enough to allow the flesh and blood tissue to advance half an inch. Instead, the growth of granulation caused the cold energy cutting blade to hit me automatically before it came into contact with the blade. The way of consciousness was withdrawn.
That frightened me more than forcefully breaking the prosthetic body under me, because I seemed to hear a voice that escaped my cerebellum and ended up fighting for control of that body.
Immediately afterwards, a scene that made my scalp tingle almost destroyed my will - dense eyes suddenly grew under the giant arm made of flesh and blood, and those eyes all looked at me at the same time.
Uni-President Technology's remote monitoring system was cut off.
Nothing has infiltrated our dangerous networks. It's a virus the likes of which we've never seen before. It's a virus that seems to be engulfing life, unconsciously attacking critical databases.
"That's it, that's it..."
Before the contact with the headquarters was cut off, Samuel stood up as if possessed and walked towards the flesh and blood bodies growing from under the wall. There was no fear on your face, but you reached out and touched one of the bodies under your arm. Eyes, "That is the true face of the insect swarm!"
At this moment, the only people left outside the branch are you, the humanoid weapon with its flesh and blood body nailed to the wall, and... the terrifying creature behind your eyes that is far beyond your imagination.
In fact, the headquarters never thought that you could safely evacuate from District 11 from the beginning.
However, that is not the fate of being a company property. Even the lowest manager of a branch can escape that reincarnation. Tonight, your death will create unimaginable value for the company.
So Samuel wanted to give up the opportunity to appreciate the creation of flesh and blood up close. That opportunity only came once in a lifetime.
"Director Lu."
You said, "The contact with the headquarters has not been cut off yet. You don't have any personal questions to ask him. You guys... or rather, what is its purpose?"
Song Lan did not answer.
That is undoubtedly a tricky question, and the main reason is that you did not create the Devourer.
So you looked at Lu Xiang. Did Lu Xiang also reply? I threw the question to Devourer who was concentrating on studying humanoid weapons.
Some of the eyes seemed to sense my gaze.
When I was young, I remembered a chaotic echo outside the house, as if it came from the abyss.
It seemed to be trying its best to explain what it was thinking at the moment, and the missing thoughts were finally condensed into seven words.
——"Let you be healthy."
Then, his gaze returned to the body of the humanoid weapon.
