Volume I The Last Garden of Eden 00041 Another Lab
Just before sunset, the Seeker arrived at Serra's location, and the wind from the Seeker hovering at a very low altitude blew down all the trees around it.
Master Chief led the team to rescue Sierra and 4 back aboard the Seeker.
With the intervention of the life-support device, Serra, who remained conscious, did not enter the treatment chamber immediately, and she ordered the Master Chief to continue the search for the whereabouts of No. 1.
Fortunately, the Hunter's ultra-low-altitude hovering also woke up No. 1 and others near the lower reaches of the river.
Their physical condition is very bad, especially No. 1, because of the two consecutive ATT protection positions, the life support device of his exoskeleton has no energy to activate, and he is now in a state of shock, but fortunately there is no fatal injury, only need to be repaired.
After everyone was rescued, the Seeker returned to a safe altitude of over 12,000 meters, where the Seeker was able to avoid the Flying Xenomorphs.
The pilot offered to return, but Serra refused, and through information sharing with 4, she knew that she was close to her target, so she decided to maintain an elevated position in the current area and resume operations at dawn.
The non-commissioned officers and drivers, although they were worried about Serra's physical condition, could only accept orders.
The next day, the treatment chamber opened, and the naked Serra walked out of the chamber, her seductive figure was only quietly praised by the mirror, and after looking at the repaired wound on her abdomen, Serra walked into the bathroom of the captain's room, and after taking a shower, Serra put on the adjusted exoskeleton again.
When he arrived at the deployment chamber, Number 1 was eating, and he was a little haggard than when he arrived, but as a veteran, his face did not change.
No. 4's expression was downcast, but he was also adjusting his matrix vision, waiting for the deployment at dawn.
678 The three of them continued their drunken state of life and death, drinking wine and tears while wiping their weapons.
"Damn, third brother, if my brother dies, all the money under my pillow will be yours!" No. 6 whispered, and No. 8 snorted at him: "Go. You. Damn, I don't want your money! You give Lao Tzu a good life! ”
No. 7 smirked, took a sip of wine and looked at Serra and said, "How about the boss, when will you leave?" ”
"Half an hour later." After two disasters in a row, Serra's eyes were a little more indifferent, and she made her way through the crowd to the cockpit.
"Preparing for a new round of deployment, the DNA sequence shows that the target left Kui's old site and went to the 'cabin in the woods' outpost, which is the coordinates." Serra shared the message, and the pilot nodded to open the ghost vision, and the deployment state was retracted, and began to fly towards the target location ten kilometers away.
Back in the deployment warehouse, No. 1 and the others had already taken off their masks and got up to wait for deployment.
The non-commissioned officer was also there to prepare the soldiers, but Serra came over and said, "You don't have to go down. ”
"But?" The non-commissioned officer looked dazed.
Serra didn't explain, and walked to the hatch, No. 1 led the team over, and No. 6 said to him with a smile when he passed by the non-commissioned officer: "The boss feels sorry for you!" Stay honest, let's go and go back! ”
"It's nothing, I'll notify you of the receipt when I find the target, just wait here for now." SERRA'S MASK FELL, HER COMPOUND EYES LIT UP, AND HER ENTIRE BODY WAS FILLED WITH A DARK RED GLOW, WHICH WAS MARK VI.'S POSTURE OF READINESS.
"The target area has been reached, ready to start deployment, altitude 1500, pay attention to the airflow."
No. 4 patted No. 10 on the shoulder, he didn't say a word since he woke up, as if he had lost his soul, and No. 10 came back to his senses before he put down the mask and turned on the ghostly energy to descend slowly.
"The hatch is open, and the rest of the crew should stay away."
The Seeker's deployment hatch slowly opened, and Sierra was the first to jump down.
Immediately after No. 1 and the others, they also jumped.
With the dull sound of landing, the seven men landed in front of the wooden house outpost in the forest at dawn.
As soon as she landed, Serra raised her weapon, and her ghostly vision swept over the devastated outpost, clearly indicating that there had been a battle.
"There are traces of K-class xenomorphs, everyone be careful." No. 4's matrix vision analyzed the battlefield, and No. 1 came to the gate of the outpost and said to No. 10: "You deploy defenses here, let's go in and look for targets, and remember to notify the seekers directly to destroy any enemy they find." ”
Nodding, 10 put down his Functional Load Pack and began to lay out defenses around the gate.
Number 6 looked at the abandoned outpost and muttered, "This place looks a little uncomfortable. ”
Number 8 sighed: "Let's go, don't talk nonsense." ”
"Found the target's DNA sequence, but he seems to have gone back and forth a lot of times here." No. 4 looked at the dense signal sources in front of him and was a little confused, what was this guy doing here last night?
"Tut-tut, BOSS, the target is a bit powerful, this is a perfect series of S-class xenos, close to K-level combat power, and he died so miserably!" No. 6 kicked the head of the black phantom on the ground, and No. 8 came to its lower body, leaned over and frowned, "The cell base fluid has also been absorbed, it's kind of interesting!" ”
Number 1 looked at Serra, who seemed to be waiting for a reasonable explanation from Serra, who had been hiding something from the beginning.
Little did he know, however, that Sierra hadn't expected the mission to be so dangerous, and that the goal had already begun to evolve.
"Did you find your target?" Serra asked number 4.
Confused, 4 said, "I don't have an exact source, but I found a place with a lot of sources. ”
"Where?"
"The underground warehouse of the fortress on the right."
"Let's go."
The group left the courtyard and headed for the underground fortress, where there were still traces of gunsmoke on the broken walls, indicating that a fierce battle had taken place last night.
No. 7 was a little uneasy, and he reminded No. 1 of a word.
"Boss, this job is really not easy to do."
No. 1 didn't reply, he walked to the front, and when he went down to the underground fortress, he looked at the tentacles that were still wriggling on the ground, as well as the open cold storage, and immediately made a warning gesture, and the team entered the combat state.
However, when they cautiously entered the cold storage, they found that the laboratory hidden in the cold storage was only thawed corpses, and nothing else.
But Serra's heart sank when he saw this, especially when he picked up the name tag on the corpse in front of the door.
"What's wrong?" Number 1 asked, looking at Serra staring at the name tag.
As he spoke, Number 4 slowly lowered his weapon and reminded everyone in shock.
"Oh my God! Lesser, come and see this! ”
Everyone hurried over, only to find that there was also a laboratory hidden in the cold storage on the other side of the warehouse. This is a large underground corpse warehouse, a human corpse with various signs of alienation sealed in a dark blue glass chamber.
Serra, who came back to her senses, said in a cold voice: "Hunter, immediately call for A-class support from the Military Agency!" ”
