Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Cult's Lair
"Dark Hunt...... Oh, is it the rumored special force that is responsible for dealing with unconventional cases," Yu Qining said thoughtfully, "No wonder they will come to the door, there is such a big mess in Jianghua City, it is impossible to completely hide it." ”
"If they intervene in the investigation, the situation will be very serious," Gao Yunjie said, "Even if the Emperor Shadow Group has a lot of influence in the political circles and has a lot of resources in the military circles, this force is very special, they will not be constrained by those things, if they want to collect evidence, they will definitely not be stupid enough to startle the snake." ”
"So you mean, they're actually already involved in the investigation?" Yu Qining said, "This visit to the top management of Diying today is actually to step on the point? ”
Gao Yunjie nodded, and said: "Although Jiang Hua is said to be blocked by the armed forces, it is definitely not difficult for the people of the secret hunting force to come in, they are here to collect evidence and find conclusive evidence that the Emperor Shadow Group conducts taboo research, once the East Window incident happens, it is not only the Emperor Shadow Group that is unlucky." ”
"What do you mean?"
"I'm afraid it will cause national turmoil," Gao Yunjie frowned, and said, "I have to say, the Emperor Shadow Group really got rid of it this time, Jianghua City is now full of evidence, and the things in the bodies of those zombies and awakened people are basically the same thing as the crimson engine implanted in our bodies." ”
"According to what you say, wouldn't it be out of order, maybe the secret hunt has already completed the collection of evidence."
"As long as the connection between the research project of the Emperor Shadow Group and the zombie crisis is severed, there is still room for recovery," Gao Yunjie said, "It is said that data cleaning has already begun, except for the core components, the rest of the relevant materials will be destroyed in the shortest possible time." ”
"The core is the prototype and the seven test subjects," Yu Qining said, "You said that although we are mercenaries of the group, we know a lot of things, will they end up giving us ...... in order to kill us?"
"You and your brothers can rest assured of this," Gao Yunjie stood up and patted Yu Qining's shoulder, and said, "Although we are mercenaries, we have a bitter relationship with the Emperor Shadow Group, and they can fully trust us now, otherwise we would not be able to use high-energy weapons like the Crimson Engine." ”
"That's right."
"And my dad still has the right to speak in the Emperor Film Group," Gao Yunjie smiled slightly, "The Sky Wolf Mercenary Group was formed by him, and the meaning of our mercenary group is what President Gao means, do you think they will cross the river and tear down the bridge in order to destroy the evidence?" ”
"Commander, I'm relieved if you say that." Yu Qining grinned.
"Okay, let's leave this alone now, just do the things in front of us well, those are the things that should be a headache for the people in the office of the group," Gao Yunjie cleared his throat and said in a loud voice, "The combat deployment has been almost done just now, let's go to the basement to start the operation now, listen to everyone, I repeat it again, give priority to preserving the Crimson Engine!" Team Yu, do you have anything to say? ”
"Prepare the blood decoy bombs, the other party's awakened can manipulate the zombies to attack at will," Yu Qining said, "Also, if I and the head of the regiment fall, you don't have to fight, and immediately retreat to the evacuation point, but the premise is that the crimson engine must be obtained, otherwise even if you go back, the group will not be able to explain." ”
After the regiment commander and the captain explained the same, they began to march towards the underground parking lot of this building, because the power system in Jianghua City had been paralyzed, so they all prepared lighting props in advance, and this time it really came in handy.
The group of mercenaries soon arrived at the underground parking lot, where they turned on the rifle hangings and the lighting fixtures fixed on their shoulders, and carefully observed their surroundings as they marched deeper into the underground parking lot for the camp.
The building's underground parking lot has been unattended and maintained for a long time, so that the water leaking from the rainstorm has not been cleaned up in time, the ground is full of puddles, and the dark and damp environment is filled with the unpleasant smell of mold and decay, so Gao Yunjie ordered everyone to wear protective masks to prevent inhalation of toxic gases.
Yu Qining walked in front, and he saw a few black shadows flashing not far in front of him, although they looked very human-like, they were all crawling on all fours, and their bodies were very short, like seven or eight-year-old children, they made strange clattering noises and disappeared into the depths of darkness.
"There's something ahead," Yu Qining raised his hand to signal the team to stop, "Did you hear that strange scream?" ”
"I saw them, they shouldn't be mutant zombies," Gao Yunjie turned back to the mercenary holding the tablet, "Where is the location of the Crimson Engine?" ”
"Commander, in the direction of ten o'clock ahead, a distance of about thirty meters." The mercenary replied as he looked at the location information displayed on the tablet.
Everyone shone the lights in the direction of the flat panel display, and saw a few dusty cars displayed there, Yu Qining pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go over and take a look first, you guys are here to cover me." ”
Yu Qining held a rifle in his hand and walked slowly towards the positioning point, while the remaining mercenaries were on guard with guns in place.
After Yu Qining arrived at the positioning point, he searched back and forth between several vehicles, and then looked at the team not far away and shook his head.
"I didn't find it," Yu Qining returned to the team and said, "There is nothing over there except for the car." ”
"As expected," Gao Yunjie said, "I looked at the map on the wall of the corridor just now, and found that this building has two floors of underground parking, and if this floor doesn't have one, the crimson engine must be one floor below." ”
"If the enemy is also on the second floor, then they must have set up an ambush," Yu Qining teased, "I don't know what kind of trap will be waiting for us to fall into the net." ”
"Keep an eye on your surroundings and stay alert," Gao Yunjie said, "within my ability, you will be safe." ”
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen what your crimson engine is capable of," Yu Qining said with a smile, "I can finally feast my eyes today." ”
"It's not for killing, so you can save it." Gao Yunjie responded lightly.
The mercenary team came to the entrance of the second floor and found that the door of the stairwell had been locked from the inside, Yu Qining squatted down, put his palm about a centimeter above the ground, and said: "These footprints are very new, among them are the military boots for our mercenaries, it seems that they have just passed here." ”
Gao Yunjie also bent down to check it, nodded and said: "That's right, this shoe print is our boots, it seems that Huang Teng and Liang Zi are indeed here, but how to open this door lock, we don't have a blasting device, and we have to consider whether there is any trigger trap set behind this door." ”
Yu Qining put his palm on the door panel, "There are no dangerous things behind the door, and there are no enemies, at least within five meters are safe," "My gravity sensing can sense the physical properties of all objects within the range of my ability, so as to judge whether these objects are dangerous."
"It's really convenient, so can you unlock this door by the way?" Gao Yunjie said.
"It's a small meaning," Yu Qining put his palm on the position of the door lock and said, "but the sound will be loud." ”
Yu Qining's palm glowed with a faint red light, and then he heard a dull roar from behind the door, followed by the clanging sound of the metal parts of the door lock falling to the ground.
"It's open," Yu Qining pulled the door open, pressed his rifle and walked into the stairwell first, "There shouldn't be a second door lock, now we have officially entered the enemy's lair." ”
The other mercenaries followed suit, and as they went downstairs, they patrolled around with guns, and when they came to the basement parking lot on the second floor, they found that the underground parking lot on this floor was brightly lit, and there were no abandoned vehicles, instead of piles of skulls arranged in a patchwork manner, each one.
The mercenaries stood at the entrance, their feet on a soft, flesh-colored carpet, three meters wide, scrawled with strange blood-red letters, and stretched to a white trapezoidal platform in the distance, which was one meter high and eight meters wide, with a total of nine stairs in front of them, and a huge painting in the background of a red dragon wrapped around a man holding a skull.
On the white platform sat a bald man, about thirty years old, wearing a silk dark red nightgown, wearing a very fashionable pair of black-framed glasses, his face revealed an elegant and restrained temperament, but there was a red dragon tattooed on the top of his bare head, which looked extremely incongruous, as if it was a mixture of fury and elegance.
There was a round table in front of him, and there was only one dish on the table, and the man was holding a spoon and tasting the dishes with pleasure in his face, ignoring Yu Qining's group of uninvited guests.
On either side of the white platform stood a line of people, most of them strange-looking, dressed in strange costumes, all exuding a strange and bloody aura, including the boy with the tail.
After the mercenaries broke in, the group of weirdos looked at them coldly, but none of them attacked or talked, not even the people who exchanged words.
"They're waiting for the person on the high platform to speak," Gao Yunjie said in a low voice, "It seems that we have won the jackpot, this is the underground lair of their gang, and they have made the entire underground parking lot like this, this group of people is really creative." ”
"It's a cult, I can understand it by looking at this arrangement," Yu Qining said, "Cao Yin told me that this group of guys is a cult gang that worships cannibalism, and it's true." ”
"Underground cults, cannibalism, it's a bit interesting," Gao Yunjie said, "Let's not move for the time being, wait for the leader to speak, and then strike first." ”
The man on the high platform was tasting the dishes one by one, looking very comfortable, and he did not have the look of an invasion of foreign enemies at all.
"Seriously, I'm going to shoot that guy in the head right now, I have the ability." Yu Qining said unhappily.
"You can try," Gao Yunjie smiled, "and see how the group of people under him will react." ”
"Probably going to pounce on a pack of mad dogs, right?" Yu Qining sneered, "In their eyes, the sect leader symbolizes the supreme doctrine, and it cannot tolerate the slightest harm or defilement. ”
About ten minutes later, during which time, Yu Qining did not shoot at the man on the high platform, but calmly observed the surroundings to determine whether there was any lurking danger.
"Dangdang!" The man on the high platform put down the spoon in his hand and wiped his mouth with a napkin, at this time, he looked at Yu Qining and them, and laughed loudly: "It turns out that a guest has arrived, I'm sorry, I was so addicted to enjoying the food just now that I forgot to arrange someone to greet you." ”
"Hey, it's okay, we're here to pick up someone to pick up something, no need to say hello," Yu Qining waved his hand and said, "It's that we feel embarrassed and broke in while you were eating, so let's do it, this master, you give me back my people and things, and we'll leave immediately." ”
"That's what you're talking about," said the man on the high platform, taking out a hexagonal black device from his coat pocket and shaking it at the mercenaries, "this thing is really strange, I've never seen it before, can you satisfy my curiosity?" ”
"We don't know what this is for, but we were ordered to retrieve it, please cooperate with the master," Yu Qining said, "There are also two of our team members who are also here, please be sure to hand them over to me." ”
The man on the high platform smiled and shook his head, then put the crimson engine back in his pocket, an action that made Yu Qining's face extremely gloomy.
"I'm sorry, your teammates are here, but sadly, I can't give them to you." The man on the high platform replied politely.
"What do you mean," Yu Qining's muscles twitched, and he raised his voice and shouted, "Don't be ashamed!" ”
"You might as well take a look at this," the man on the high platform slowly stood up at this time, and then walked around to the front of the round table, he bent down and lifted the tablecloth that covered the entire table, then looked at Yu Qining and the others, and said with a smile, "I have already finished enjoying the brain of one just now, it tastes good, and it can be called medium and upper grade." ”
Yu Qining and the others looked around, and under the table was sitting a man who had long been lifeless, his head halfway embedded in the center of the bottom of the table, and his limbs and torso were fixed to the floor with a pair of three-legged metal brackets.
The upper part of the man's head was supposed to pass through the table and appear on the table, but there was only a blue and white porcelain plate with a large hole in the middle, and the man on the high platform took a spoon and reached into the big hole at this time to scoop it, scooped up a lump of gray and white tissue sticking to the blood, and then put it in his mouth and savored it.
At this time, Yu Qining also saw the person under the table clearly, he was Liang Wenjia, a member of Huang Teng's team who had failed to transplant the crimson engine before.
When the mercenaries realized what happened to Liang Wenjia, they immediately felt that their stomachs were turning over, and the feeling of nausea rushed straight to their brains.
"Commander, do you want to do it," the green tendons on Yu Qining's temples on both sides burst out, and he said fiercely, "I don't have anything to say to this group of disgusting perverts, let's kill them!" ”
Gao Yunjie took a deep breath and said calmly: "Brothers, I will give the order later, and you will destroy all the enemies in this place in the shortest possible time according to the battle plan just deployed, and be careful not to hit the crimson engine by mistake." ”
As the commander spoke, the morale and fighting spirit of all the mercenaries were instantly high, and at this moment, they were determined to turn into a member of the bloodthirsty wolf pack and completely tear apart everything in this hive with their highly armed fangs and claws.
