38. The world that begins to collapse (8)
Walking down the stairs step by step, the elevator has long been damaged, and it is strange that the power supply of the institute has not been destroyed.
Xi Shaoan looked at the flickering lights at the staircase, and made a gesture to the people behind him, and everyone stopped silently, their eyes wary.
The voice of a teammate came from the headset.
"Captain, no zombies were found on the fifth floor, it looks like someone has cleaned it up."
"Captain, it's the same on the seventh floor, except for the bloodstains, you can't see that it has been destroyed at all."
"Captain, I'm the same here."
"Me ...... too"
"I see." Xi Shaoan looked up at the sign on the wall, the nineteenth floor, the lowest floor of the research institute, and also the floor where all the real products stayed.
Raising his hand, a slight electric current skewered out from his palm, and the incandescent lamp was extinguished in an instant, Xi Shao'an took off his smudged gloves and calmly gave an order: "The three, six, eight, and nine squads return to the ground and join the two-five, and the four-seven continue to search." Then he tilted his head slightly and glanced at the person behind him with his peripheral vision, "You take a team to guard in place." ”
Meng Fan frowned, wanting to say something, but finally nodded.
"Captain, are you going to act alone, but I heard Xiao Xin say ......"
Xi Shao'an ignored the words in the headset and turned down the volume of the microphone to the minimum: "From now on, in order to prevent accidents, except for special circumstances, everyone will temporarily interrupt communication before returning to the ground."
After Xi Shao'an nodded to Meng Fan, he put away his gun and strode into the snow-white corridor that was too bright compared to the staircase, and in the corner where no one could see, layers of dense power grids turned from under his feet to the ground, spreading silently into the depths.
It's really thanks to the fact that the ground on this layer is actually made of special metal, and it is unexpectedly electrophilic, and the ice texture under its feet shows people its strong defensive power, but it provides convenience for Xi Shao'an.
It's just that with such a strong defense, it's like guarding against something's escape......
This layer, what kind of monster is closed?
Thinking like this in his heart, but without a pause, Xi Shaoan walked to the metal door, and the scanner was unexpectedly intact. Seeing that the blue light that appeared automatically was about to sweep to him, Xi Shaoan stretched out his hand and inserted it directly into the circuit, and after a crackling sound, the power supply of the red light representing the warning was finally extinguished, and the silver-white door was forced to open.
After that, it was much smoother, except for the first door, the back door was violently destroyed by something...... The directive was forcibly changed, and it was always open.
Xi Shaoan looked at the green "Tong Guò" word "Tong Guò" that had been displayed on the scanner.
This institute is so abnormal, he can more or less know what kind of place this is because of his identity before coming here. However, along the way, it is completely different from everyone's imagination.
The empty hallway, the suffocatingly quiet room, the clean and white floor except for a few blood stains, the unruly electrical circuitry, the unpleasant slight smell of chemical agents in the air, but it was much better than the strong smell of corpses.
They even thought that they had come to not a morally degraded institute, but the last pure land of mankind.
But it's just an illusion.
Xi Shao'an looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes were slightly gloomy.
Rows of nutrient jars had a hole large enough to pass through a human being, purple nutrients were dirty and dim, and there were large pools of dried blood and some paper materials torn to shreds.
Through these traces, Xi Shao'an seems to be able to replay what happened here: unsuspecting researchers were torn apart and slaughtered by "them" who suddenly broke free, and then their bodies were destroyed for some unknown reason.
Walking into the depths step by step, the solemn look on Xi Shaoan's face became heavier and heavier.
The sheer number of them, the strong combat power and healing power shown in the data, and the group-like routine......
What he wanted to know most now was where these real products had gone.
Stopping, Xi Shaoan looked at the last door in front of him and secretly clenched his fists.
Behind this door is the central room, and the result of his investigation is also behind this door.
Since some strange thoughts appeared inexplicably in his heart a few months ago, Xi Shaoan felt that he was not quite like himself sometimes.
From south to east, from the bustling center to the cool border, he followed his intuition several times, and his abnormal behavior made many people think he was stunned.
And just a few days ago, Ben discussed going to the base in S City first, but he came to this institute first despite public opinion.
What is the meaning of this seemingly diluted decision, the answer lies behind this door.
The knobby hand covered the door, and in contrast to the heart that was beating faster and faster, faintly expectant, it was his perception as a paranormal that issued a sharp warning.
Thunder flashed in his palm, destroying the gate in one fell swoop, but the scene behind the door was completely different from what he expected.
Nothing.
Xi Shao'an looked at the nutrient tank with a big hole as before, and the huge loss and anxiety in the depths of his soul surged up and tumbled.
Wait, no!
Xi Shao'an directly smashed the huge nutrient jar, emerging through the dark glass door, and he looked at the words engraved on it.
【запаснойбункер】
"Spare pod?"
Xi Shao'an said softly, and the black door, which was different from the outside, was easily opened, and a warm pale yellow light shone through.
Bright but not dazzling lighting, and multiple single sofas, this place is more like a place to rest than those studios.
Xi Shao'an didn't look at the indoor environment carefully, his attention had already been attracted by the spare nutrient tank not far away.
The handsome young man with pale face and black broken hair floated quietly in the purple liquid, his fair body curled slightly, his back arched in a charming arc, his slender eyelashes were like fluttering butterfly wings, Xi Shaoan seemed to see him trembling slightly.
The anxiety in his heart suddenly changed to surprise and pity, Xi Shao soothed his heart, and the violent beating told him that he was not wrong.
That's the man.
What he had been looking for was this teenager.
The headset emitted a flashing red light, stopping his desire to break the glass, Xi Shaoan tapped the button.
"Captain." Meng Fan's voice came.
"I found it, you ......"
However, at this moment, the sound of a bang diverted his gaze, and when he raised his head, Xi Shaoan met a pair of clear and empty apricot eyes.
The young man who woke up looked at Xi Shaoan silently, and the bubbles on his lips seemed to be wondering something.
“……”
"Captain?"
……
