Chapter 51: Fleeing
New York's 10,600-kilometer sewer system was built in 1849 and has been around for 170 years, 30 to 200 feet underground.
And as a classic scene of Hollywood commercial blockbusters such as "007" and "Mission Impossible", some sewers in New York have a shooting rate comparable to the Golden Gate Bridge, and the space inside is large enough, let alone hiding a big lizard, and people can live in some places.
Of course, the stinking and garbage-filled sewers had been crossed out by the two of them, and that kind of place, even if Dr. Connors were there, they wouldn't have gotten to kill them.
Linson and Peter find an abandoned sewage treatment plant that can be used to access the part of the underground canal in the New York City sewers, where the water is filtered and preliminarily purified, and where Dr. Connors is most likely to hide.
Peter had already changed his clothes, and while looking at himself, he let out a satisfied exclamation, but Lin Sen poured cold water on him: "Do you really want to go down?" How was your wound yesterday? ”
Yesterday Peter was flung by the lizardman's tail, and he was scratched by the ridged skin on it, which was scary to look at, but it wasn't serious at all.
Especially since his own physique is not ordinary now, after using the Eagle Eye spray, he is almost better after a day, so he now said indifferently:
"It's been a long time coming, let's go, I'm afraid Dr. Connors will do something irreparable."
"Okay, but I'll warn you, it's best not to think about being tough with the lizardmen, and don't call me my real name when I get up, you know?" Lin Sen didn't want to be found by the lizardmen and end up endangering his family.
"Got it, let's go! I don't even know when you've become more verbose than Aunt Mei. ”
……
Tick ~ tick ~ New York's underground canals extend in all directions, with the help of the lights on their mobile phones and the sunlight that spills in from time to time, Lin Sen and Peter have been walking in the spacious and humid underground canals for a while, and the two have been paying attention to the movements around them, but except for the sound of running water, only the sound of water droplets falling.
Walking to a place where eight or nine underground canals meet, Peter used spider silk to connect these underground canal passages into a web, so that he could detect any movement at the first time, but after a while, there was still no movement, and he asked in a depressed whisper:
"Are we wrong?"
Not far in front is a large sewage treatment plant, where the water from the underground canal has to be purified again before it becomes tap water for every household.
Lin Sen didn't speak, but pointed to the water not far away and said, "What do you see is that?" ”
Following Lin Sen's gaze, a white object floated on the water, Peter shot a spider silk directly and stuck it over, and when he looked closer, he found that it was a syringe for injection.
Tick ~ tick ~ Buzzing~
Just when the two of them saw clearly that it was an injection syringe, there was finally a trace of movement on the spider web, which had been quiet for a long time.
The two of them focused on the cobweb, as if they were facing a great enemy.
Buzzing~
But unexpectedly, there was movement from the spider silk on the other side, followed by the third, fourth, fifth, and then from other directions.
The two looked at each other, a little confused by this puzzling situation, and they didn't know what was going on, so they could only guard each other back to back.
"Look!"
didn't let the two of them wait too long, on the wall of the underground canal where the first movement came, a huge lizard projection appeared, Lin Sen held a short knife in his left hand, and pressed his right hand on the storage bag transformed into a watch, ready to break out at any time.
It didn't take long for an ordinary lizard to appear in Lin Sen's sight, and then, from the spider silk connecting each passage, another lizard appeared, and they rushed from all directions in the direction where the two of them were as if they were being driven by something.
Whew~
"Be careful!"
Lin Sen just seemed to catch a glimpse of some dark shadow flashing, when he heard Peter's voice coming, and then he pushed him out.
It turned out that the wall above the two of them had silently appeared on the wall above their heads, and after Peter pushed Lin Sen out, it pounced on Peter like a predator.
"What?"
With the spider sense, Peter, who sensed the crisis, pushed Lin Sen away, but the moment he turned around, it was still a little late, and he was directly pressed to the ground, and the lizardman opened his huge claws, and the sharp claws pierced Peter's heart fiercely.
"Don't you want to stop me again! This is the first step in the perfect evolution of humanity! "Dr. Connors, who has been dominated by the beast nature in the lizard's genes and has changed his temperament, is full of murderous intent in his eyes, and this time, he wants to completely eliminate this mole ant that has stopped him!
Swish!
"Whew!!" The body of the big lizard, who was wielding claws to kill spiders, suddenly trembled and screamed, giving Peter a chance to breathe.
A flash of cold light struck the lizardman's wrist like lightning, severing his left beast claw at the wrist, and blood flowed into the water of the underground canal as if it were not worth any money.
The Juhe Slash that was unleashed with Edelman's alloy weapon was really powerful, and it instantly pulled the hatred over.
The lizardman roared angrily, and with his right hand, he slammed Peter out of the hand he was holding, then turned around and rushed towards Lin Sen.
The other party didn't know what kind of weapon he was holding, but it gave him a feeling of extreme danger, and he could actually inflict so much damage on himself, which even heavy machine guns and anti-materiel sniper rifles could not do.
As Connors had told Peter before, reptiles become extremely belligerent and violent when threatened.
Lin Sen felt this sense of oppression now, and what made him even more distressed was that he had just looked at the lizardman's severed wrist, and after such a while, he had actually stopped bleeding.
He knew that the lizardmen had a strong ability to recover, but what he didn't expect was that this ability was so strong!
Puff puff!
Peter, who had been thrown off the wall, came back to his senses, and several strands of spider silk stuck to the lizardman's feet from his wrists, but the next moment, a long lizard's tail jerked over, forcing Peter to dodge around in the small space.
Lin Sen was not idle, taking advantage of this opportunity, he stepped forward, and the Tang knife in his hand used extraordinary sword skills, and his movements were not slow at all, like a rapid lightning, and the cold light flickered, and every time it fell on the lizardman's body, a bright red cut would be drawn.
The transcendent sword technique itself is not a particularly unfathomable sword technique, but he has endowed Lin Sen with an unparalleled grasp of various sword techniques, which can perfectly connect different sword skills, and constantly accelerate between the switching of sword skills, so that his offensive can reach an extreme speed.
However, Lin Sen was also depressed, because he knew that the lizardman in front of him was changed by Dr. Connors, so he did not attach the Extreme Dao Sword Qi, nor did he make a death move, although it seemed that the attack was like a tide, but it was not fatal.
More depressed than Lin Sen is the lizardman, under the "devastation" of the system battle training, Lin Sen is too sensitive to the timing of the battle, the lizardman was just caught by Lin Sen at the beginning of a flaw, and as a result, he has been pressed and beaten.
Now the opponent's attacks are covering wave after wave, and there are already countless wounds on his body, and the self-healing ability after transformation needs to consume physical energy, and now the speed of self-healing has become slower and slower, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that he will really die here.
Moreover, because of the consumption of self-healing ability, the time for his transformation is almost up.
When the interruption continues, it is chaotic. The lizardman resisted Lin Sen's several slashes, forcibly switched between attack and defense, turned around and forced Lin Sen back with his long lizard tail, and then grabbed Peter behind him with his already grown right hand and intact left hand.
Whew!
Originally, there was not much space, after Peter dodged one claw, the other claw was about to dodge, Peter even thought about how to resist this blow, but he didn't expect the lizardman to let him go, and after a false shot, he actually grabbed his way from the passage where Peter was.
After a while, the figure of the lizardman disappeared into the damp wall diagonally above, Peter wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Lin Sen, he had no spider silk and no biological static, in case he chased and fought again, he would not be able to help at all, and he would become a burden.
"Ahem! ~ I thought he was going to fight us to the end! Leaning against the wall, Peter coughed twice.
Dr. Connors's mutated lizardmen actually know how to judge the situation, which is indeed beyond the expectations of the two.
"You're glad he didn't do a heart removal on you."
"Buzz," rang the cell phone, which had been thrown aside from the fight.
"Hey, Harry?"
It was Harry who heard the call, and Lin Sen quietly pricked up his ears, not knowing what Harry would call Peter to do at this time.
"What?! It's gone! If you want me to preside, no, no, Harry, you wait a minute, I'll go to you now, there's one thing I have to say to you. ”
…………
"Well, okay!"
Peter hung up the phone and said to Lin Sen with a strange expression: "Harry said that all the technical information about the Osborne Group's human modification program could not be found, so he wanted me to restore the equation of the genetic drug, because I also participated in the research and development of the gene drug. ”
"So you're going to tell him that the lizardmen are injected with genetic drugs?"
"Well, yes."
"Then let's go now!"
