Chapter 644: The Shadow of Death
"Quick, turn it off!"
Cheng Yanqiu drank vigorously, in the quiet night, this sound was too obvious, and it was likely to attract some mutated creatures that were wandering around.
"I ...... I can't turn it off...... Computer...... Crashed...... Even a hot start didn't work! No. 147 had obviously never been in such a situation, and there was a hint of panic on his face.
"Damn, let me come!" Cheng Yanqiu pushed No. 147 away, rounded the butt of the gun and smashed it the top of the computer, instantly smashing a depression on the surface of the computer, and many small precision parts flew out from both sides of the computer, and the beeping sound finally stopped.
"What's going on? Can you explain? Cheng Yanqiu asked with a grim face.
"I don't know...... My computer...... Seems to have been invaded? Number 147 said incoherently.
"Invasion? You mean, we were found by the Mastermind? ”
"No...... I'm not sure, with the design of this computer, theoretically it is impossible to be hacked, if you want to enter any instructions on it, you have to go through the keyboard bound to it, any external instructions will be directly ignored, if the external command tries to seize control, then the computer's built-in program will directly execute the self-destruction program, in that case, let alone make a sound, I can't even turn on the computer. Number 147 explained.
"But why is that beeping sound? I don't think there's a sound system installed on this computer, right? ”
"Actually, there is, there is a miniature sound device, which can be used to sound a prompt or an alarm, but this sound device is generally disabled, no matter what, as long as I don't manually enter the command to lift the ban, the connection between the sound device and the computer is disconnected, and it is not ...... at all."
"But the problem is, you don't do anything, and the computer goes crazy, and you can't explain it, right?" Cheng Yanqiu said.
"...... right"
"Immediately pack up our things, we need to change places, and in addition, throw away all the electronics on our bodies, as long as they have tubes and circuit boards, including multi-function binoculars and electronic tactical watches!" Cheng Yanqiu said as he took out a telescope from his backpack and threw it on the ground - the watch he was wearing on his wrist was a mechanical quartz watch, but there was no risk of being controlled by the mastermind.
No. 147 was stunned, and said with some hesitation: "However, if there are no such things, the mission ......"
"If we die, will we let the ghosts complete the mission?" Cheng Yanqiu's tone was extremely cold.
There were several such items that 147 was carrying, all of which had been turned over and piled on the ground.
Cheng Yanqiu took out a folded aluminum foil, spread it out, and covered these devices - due to the principle of electrostatic shielding, aluminum foil can make these devices isolate electromagnetic signals from the outside world, although I don't know if it is useful in the face of the main brain, but it is better than doing nothing.
The two of them left the room where they were hiding and came to the next door, and just as they were about to descend to the bottom of the building by rope, a dark shadow suddenly smashed through the partition wall on the other side, knocking 147 to the ground.
Cheng Yanqiu immediately drew his saber and rushed over, and at this time, the black shadow had already scuffled with No. 147 on the ground.
This is a "person", or rather, this is a humanoid monster, but Cheng Yanqiu does not feel strange - because he and Qi Lin have seen the same thing in an abandoned underground shopping mall.
In less than a second, the monster's claws cut several deep wounds on No. 147's body, and by the time Cheng Yanqiu rushed in front of them, No. 147 had been completely suppressed by the monster - whether it was strength or speed, No. 147, who was a second-level evolutionary, was no match for the monster at all.
"Grab it!" Cheng Yanqiu shouted in a low voice, and when No. 147 heard this, he immediately used all his strength to strangle the monster's shoulder, while Cheng Yanqiu stabbed the saber hard along the spine into the monster's brain stem.
Most of the saber more than 20 centimeters long was not in the monster's skull, and the tip of the knife even reached the inside of the skull, Cheng Yanqiu stirred it hard, and the monster's movements were completely frozen, and Cheng Yanqiu took this opportunity to drag it off No. 147's body and threw it to the side.
This monster was a little weaker than the one he and Qi Lin encountered in the underground mall, and the monster at the beginning, even if it was pierced through the brain by a steel pipe, could still make a strong counterattack before dying, but this monster, just a knife, directly lost its life.
Although there are slight differences, Cheng Yanqiu can still be sure that this is the same kind of monster, because at the spine of the monster, there is also a row of small holes for inserting electrodes, and the barcode tattoo on the sole of the foot is clearer.
The wounds on No. 147's body were deep, but fortunately, the intense training saved his life - when he was attacked suddenly, he subconsciously protected the vital points on his body, so most of the wounds were on his arms and abdomen, and the monster's claws were not able to cut his throat.
After helping No. 147 to simply bandage the wound, Cheng Yanqiu walked to the monster's corpse and was about to check the condition of the corpse, but the corner of his eye suddenly swept to the back of the big hole that was knocked open by the monster, and there seemed to be a black shadow flashing.
The corridor outside is tic-tac-toe, connecting the various rooms on the level, the terrain is not complicated, but it is not as good as it can be seen, and the abundance of corners and shelter provides an excellent opportunity for attack.
"The monster that entered the building...... I'm afraid there must be several......" The corners of Cheng Yanqiu's mouth showed a bitter smile, that's right, this kind of monster has indeed become weaker, just like the castrated version of the original one, but the castrated version often means another situation.
That's "mass production"!
Although the interior of the building does not have the kind of flesh membrane that can spawn an endless number of disposable golems, the combat power of this monster alone is enough to make people feel tricky.
No. 147 was seriously injured, a deep opening in his abdomen, as long as he moved slightly, the slippery intestines would flow out of the wound, in this state, if Qi Lin led him down from a height of more than a dozen floors, it would undoubtedly be equivalent to pushing him to the ghost gate.
But if you go down the stairs...... Inevitably, they will fall into the ambush of those monsters, and in the corridor alone, I am afraid that there is more than one monster waiting for them.
Or do you want to leave 147 here and leave the building by the rope?
