Chapter 283: Running at Full Speed (First Shift)
The elevator continues to rise.
Chen Yuan looked down at the two multi-purpose rifles in his hand, with three bullets on the left and right.
He loosened his hands and whispered to Jiang Lian, "Where does this elevator stop?"
"It's supposed to be a lab. β
Although he had guessed like this, Chen Yuan was still a little surprised when he really heard this answer.
"So is this a prison or an experimental base?"
Jiang Lian glanced at Chen Yuan slightly, "Count both." β
Chen Yuan thought for a moment, "So, wait for the laboratory we will arrive, is it very likely that there will be armed forces waiting for us inside?"
Jiang Lian shook her head slightly, looking a little helpless, "I don't know." β
Chen Yuan raised his head, looked at the electronic screen in front of him and blinked.
"Anyway, if you want to go back to it, there's only one way, right?"
"Hmmm......"
"Okay. β
Chen Yuan sank his shoulders and exhaled, "I hope our luck can be better." β
After a few moments, the elevator slowed down significantly, accompanied by a "drip-" sound.
The elevator came to a complete stop, and B2 was displayed on the screen.
"It's here. β
Jiang Lian whispered, and then quickly pulled up Li Qiluo and moved to the side where there were buttons.
Chen Yuan stood in front of them, quietly adjusting his breathing.
The elevator doors slowly opened to both sides, and Chen Yuan put his head on the side of the elevator, listening carefully to the movement outside.
There were no footsteps, no sound of talking.
It felt like there was no one outside the elevator.
Are all the armed forces waiting for them to go out first?
Chen Yuan frowned slightly, still choosing to stand still.
After a few seconds, the elevator doors began to reclose in the middle.
The sound of metal grinding sounded, and there was still no movement outside.
It's weird......
According to Jiang Lian, even if there is no armed force, there should be some scientific researchers. You can't just say a word just because someone is coming up on the elevator, right?
At the moment when the elevator door was about to close, Chen Yuan pressed the button to open the door.
As the elevator doors gradually opened to both sides, Chen Yuan quietly poked his head out a little.
The field of view in front of you slowly pans to the left.
The first thing I saw was a corpse lying in front of it.
He was wearing a white coat, and the dark red blood had formed a small sticky pool of blood beneath his body.
Chen Yuan frowned, his gaze swept left and right.
"No one ......"
He whispered, then slowly stepped out of the elevator.
The horizon widened.
The whole laboratory was presented in full before his eyes.
More than a dozen corpses, also dressed in white coats, fell in different positions.
"All ...... dead"
Chen Yuan's voice was full of doubts.
Jiang Lian frowned, obviously not expecting the situation here to be like this.
Li Qiluo stood next to Jiang Lian, she subconsciously covered her mouth, blinked her eyes in a daze, and looked left and right at a loss.
Chen Yuan walked cautiously forward, and soon noticed the five giant cylindrical containers on the other side of the laboratory. The glass on the outside was all shattered, and the inside was empty.
Looking at the scene in front of him, he suddenly remembered the scientists who had been shot dead in the Science and Technology Building. What the hell is going on? Could it be that the scientists here were killed in the same way by those people?
In addition to this, there was one more thing that worried him. According to the current situation, it is very likely that the contents of those containers have become other kinds of zombies.
Chen Yuan cautiously paid attention to the surroundings of the laboratory, this place was too big, and there were experimental equipment and various tables and cabinets piled up everywhere, the line of sight was fragmented, and there were dead corners everywhere that could not confirm the true situation.
He exhaled softly and said in a very small voice, "Which way should we go now?"
Jiang Lian stretched out her hand and pointed forward, "Over there." Her expression was also very solemn, "Get into that elevator, and we'll be able to get to it completely." β
Chen Yuan nodded lightly, "Then let's hurry up, I have a bad premonition." β
"Hmm. β
The three of them staggered each other's attention in different directions, while increasing the speed of their feet.
At this moment, very suddenly, behind the cabinet a little farther on the right, there was a strange noise.
Something seems to have been kicked.
"Someone. β
Chen Yuan whispered.
The three of them immediately stopped and hid behind a nearby table, then cautiously looked at the source of the sound.
Li Qiluo covered his mouth tightly, his eyes widened as he looked in the direction of the cabinet, and at the same time noticed Jiang Lian and Chen Yuan's reactions.
Jiang Lian's eyes flickered from side to side, "It may not be human." β
Chen Yuan poked his head out from the side of the table and glanced at the cabinet in front of him, which didn't seem to be anything special. He glanced back at Jiang Lian and asked in a low voice, "How much do you know about the situation here?"
Jiang Lian shook her head slightly, "I don't know much, but I've heard a little." She pondered for a moment and continued: "This place is a secret base for state construction, and it seems that the purpose is to conduct some research on human genes. Because most of the prisoners held here are death row inmates, they will select some people from these people who meet the experimental standards to conduct human experiments directly. β
She sighed, "I don't know what their experiment is, but I guess it's related to the zombie virus." None of the people who were taken away for the experiment ever returned. They should all be dead, or they will be zombies. β
Chen Yuan leaned his head on the edge of the table, listening intently to the movement behind him.
"Do you know anything else?"
"Something else ......"
Jiang Lian repeated it in a low voice, then shook her head, "I don't know, what is that?"
"It's an upgraded version of a zombie, isn't it? β
Chen Yuan touched his chin, "I'm worried that the five containers over there are all that kind of guys, if my guess is correct, they should be hiding in some places in this laboratory, I don't know when they will attack us." β
He slowly turned his head and looked beyond the table to the cabinet directly in front of him, "Like you said, these lunatics don't know what they're working on. But at present, the emergence of other species must be related to their research. In this case, it proves that there must be absolutely safe places in our country. Otherwise, there would be no place like Paradise, and there would be no time and energy for such crazy experiments. β
Jiang Lian looked up at the ceiling and sighed lightly, "Well, you're right, I think that's the case." β
Chen Yuan clenched the multi-functional rifle in his hand, "You said that the bullets in this gun are super powerful anesthetics, right?"
"Hmm. β
Jiang Lian looked at Chen Yuan and answered.
"Does that work against zombies?"
Jiang Lian hesitated a little, "This...... I'm not sure ...... either."
"How do you feel?"
"Hmm...... I feel like it should be useful. β
Chen Yuan smiled, "Now I can only hope that they are useful." β
He inhaled hard, then slowly exhaled it.
"We can't go on like this, let's go, be quiet, they might not be interested in us at all. β
Jiang Lian and Li Qiluo looked at him and nodded.
The three of them tried to keep their footsteps to a minimum.
I walked past four tables in a row.
In the field of vision on the left, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind the container.
It happened so fast that there was no warning at all.
"Run!"
Chen Yuan shouted.
Jiang Lian and Li Qiluo immediately reacted and ran forward.
Chen Yuan followed them, aiming his gun at the bald guy as he ran.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, another loud bang came from the right side.
The iron cabinet smashed on the ground, and the second guy jumped over the iron cabinet and knocked down Chen Yuan directly.
"Chen Yuanβ"
The two women turned around at the same time and screamed, and Li Qiluo ran back with her rifle in hand.
The guy pressed against Chen Yuan's body and showed a hideous face, and his hands were frantically pinching his neck.
Chen Yuan gritted his teeth and pressed the muzzle of the gun to his stomach and shot out.
The guy's eyes twitched visibly, and the strength of his hand weakened.
