Volume 1: Rise of the Shadows Chapter 39: Prologue to Darkness
At this time, Wellington Hospital was in complete chaos, and overnight, it became a hellish existence.
The BPRD had already sent operational troops to cordon off the entire hospital, and no idle people were allowed to enter, and Ye Xiang felt that he was already anxious.
"The death report is out, vice-captain. Raven reported to him, "Ten people died, including two civilians and eight members of the operation force, all but one of whom died of poisoning. ”
"None of that matters. Ye Xiang felt that he was now a lion locked up in a zoo, with a nameless fire but nowhere to vent. "Whether or not I have found Rex's whereabouts, that's what I care about. ”
"I'm afraid not. Raven carefully flipped through all the reports in his hand and looked up and replied, "I didn't find any trace of him, but I did find traces of the battle on the rooftop, but I can't tell if he left it." ”
"Where are the people from the appraisal department?" Ye Xiang's voice was already hoarse, "Immediately send someone from the appraisal department to the rooftop for appraisal, and give me a complete report within 30 minutes, otherwise I will let them all go." ”
"Understood. Raven nodded in agreement, "I'll go and inform them so they can finish the report as soon as possible." ”
With Raven leaving, Ye Xiang also felt tired from the bottom of his heart. Damn, everything is a mess, and now I'm playing this again, what should I do next.
Ye Xiang sat quietly on the chair in the aisle like this, and his seemingly calm face was actually a mess of thoughts. "Vice Captain, Vice Captain. Raven's voice interrupted his thoughts, and he realized that he had been sitting here for more than half an hour.
"Is the report out?" he asked hurriedly.
"It's out. Raven's expression looked solemn, "But I'm afraid it's not good news, according to the report, there are remnants of Mephistopheles' power on the rooftop, and it can be concluded that he was there at the time." ”
Ye Xiangzheng was flipping through the report page by page, but every time he turned the page, he felt that his head had become bigger again, which was simply bad news among bad news.
"What does this mean?" Ye Xiang said, pointing to a passage in the report, "According to the identification, the two remaining blood stains at the scene are extremely similar, and the DNA sequence overlap rate reaches 98%, but the gene strand is slightly different. ”
"You say this. Raven also poked his head over, "This seems to be Rex's blood test, and the other blood test should be Mephistopheles'." ”
"Don't you think it's strange that the DNA of the two of them overlaps so much?" Ye Xiang pointed out the problem pointedly.
"It's weird. Raven understood the vice-captain's question, "Obviously a human being, how can he be so similar to the demon's genes, and his previous performance was also very weird, these two things should be related." ”
"Tell the operations department to list Rex as a tracking target, and be fast. Ye Xiang's order seemed to be unrefutable to others.
"Targeting our team members. Raven expressed his suspicions, "Isn't that a disguised belief that Rex is a fellow party of the devil?"
"There is a high probability that he is in the same party. Ye Xiang said quietly, "My decision is based on my considerations, I must list him as a tracking target, and I will talk about it later." ”
"Understood. Raven accepted Ye Xiang's proposal, "Then I'll go and inform the operations department." ”
As soon as Raven left on the front foot, Nicholas limped out of the ward on the back foot: "Vice Captain, I have something important to report. ”
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiang felt that the world was simply annoying, one thing after another, and he now felt that his brain was about to explode.
"Good news!" Nicholas looked excited, almost shouting excitedly. "It's the captain, Captain Shore, he's awake!"
"What did you say?" Ye Xiang jumped up directly from the chair, "Is it true?"
"It's true!" Nicholas said with a smile, "the nurse has removed his oxygen mask, and now he's regained consciousness, but he just doesn't know when he'll be able to speak." ”
God bless, Ye Xiang felt that today was a good day for the first time. My friend woke up, and it was ecstatic news, and while things were terrible today, it was another day to celebrate.
"Who of you is Ye Xiang?" The soft girl suddenly broke their celebratory atmosphere, Ye Xiang looked around, it turned out to be the nurse from the hospital who was asking them.
"I'm Ye Xiang. He replied, "Is there anything wrong?"
"So you are. The nurse said, "Shore Robert, who is in the same ward as you, has asked to see you, so I have come here to ask who Mr. Ye Xiang is." ”
"He wants to see me, are you sure he said it himself?" The nurse was taken aback by Ye Xiang's excitement, but still patted her chest and said, "Yes, Mr. Shore wants to see you by name." ”
"Okay, I'll go now. Ye Xiang patted Nicholas on the shoulder, and the latter sent him farewell with a smile. Ye wanted to push the door in, only to see that although Xiao Er's face was pale, he already had a little blood.
"It's good you're here. Shore said, his tone so weak, completely different from what he used to be. "I have important things to tell you, and you have to remember as much as you can when I say it. ”
"Say it. Ye Xiang pulled over the chair and sat down on the side of Shore's bed, "Slow down, your body is still very weak now, and it will not be good for your body if you use too much force." ”
"You guy. A smile appeared on Shore's face, "If it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago, and I really have to thank you." ”
"Are you starting to make sycophants again?" Ye Xiang replied with a smile, "Don't forget that you also saved my life last time, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to save you alive." ”
"That's right. Shore sighed, "In this way, we can settle the matter, and next time you don't have to worry about you using this matter to find fault with me." ”
"You seem to be going too far. Ye wanted to remind him, "You said you have something very important to tell me, what is it?"
"It's about to begin. Shore stared at the ceiling and said, "The assault on hell is about to begin." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Ye Xiang asked, "How do you know that the attack is about to start?"
"I saw it, Ye thought. "All the demons in Hell have been assembled, and the army of darkness has gathered in the tens of thousands, howling and roaring, eager to drown the world in complete darkness. ”
"Where did you see it?" Ye Xiang asked with a skeptical tone, "You've been lying in bed all the time, it's probably just your nightmare, how credible is it?"
Shore closed his eyes, not just thinking about what he was thinking, but also trying to remember what he saw.
It wasn't a dream, his instincts told him it couldn't be just a dream. It was as if it were there, standing on some unknown rock platform, looking down on the endless armies of Hell on the ground.
The sky is red, the ground is red, and even the water of the stream is red. But he couldn't scream, and in fact no one could see him, he was like a child watching TV, who could only look at the screen and couldn't communicate with the people on it.
What was it in the distance? The sky seemed to be torn apart, and someone was shouting, but he couldn't hear it clearly. The scene in front of him turned into a distorted ghost again, and he himself began to lose track of whether it was illusion or reality, and he didn't know how long it lasted, and when he opened his eyes again, his spirit had returned to reality.
"There's no going wrong. Shore opened his eyes and said categorically, "Hell is about to attack, the doors are about to be opened, and darkness is about to pour into this world. ”
"If that's the case, I'll have to inform Headquarters that we have to change our approach. ”
"That's right. Shore agreed to his proposal, "Time is running out, and action must be taken now, or at least the strongest defenses can be built if they can't be stopped." ”
"Do as you wish. Ye wanted to reply, "But there are some things I still have to let you know first, Rex is missing, and Chikusa Wakaha is still unconscious, and there is a lot of evidence that Mephistopheles may have been here." ”
"Mephistopheles Ferres. Shore repeated the name, "His actions should have been expected by us, and as for Rex, he is inextricably linked to that event, and the situation is now beyond our imagination." ”
"There's one more thing. Ye Xiang thought about it again and again, but decided to inform him. "According to the order of the headquarters, I am now the acting captain, but now that you have woken up, I feel that the position of captain should be returned to you. ”
"What does it matter?" Schauer didn't mind at all, "we're comrades, we're comrades-in-arms, and if you look at me, can I still lead you now?" ”
"I should have thought you didn't care at all. Ye Xiang said, "A man like you doesn't care about fame and fortune at all, all you care about is the future of mankind." ”
"Aren't we alike in that case?" Shore retorted, "the same fight for humanity, the same fight as humanity, we are so similar." ”
"That's why we're coming together. Ye Xiang got up as he spoke, "I want to report your findings to the headquarters, before the war comes, you have to recover from your injuries as soon as possible, I don't want to take all the battle achievements alone." ”
"Then let's see you on the battlefield. Shore smiled heartily, "I'm looking forward to fighting alongside you guys again, this time, we're going to crush the darkness once and for all." ”
