Chapter 40: The Traitor
"Thaw 88 immediately."
"Number 88? Zhongwei, the experiment has not been successful, and he can't reach the time to thaw yet. ”
"I know, but there's nothing else to do now."
"In that case, well, wait a minute." The director turned around and said loudly, "Extract No. 88 immediately and prepare for the thawing procedure." "The 'Taiyi' people in the No. 88 freezer cabin are called Yu Lingwei, the combat power is evaluated, and the third-order strengthened 'Taiyi' people are strengthened!
Through the transparent isolation window of the control room, Li Tong clearly saw that a robotic arm was putting a freezer chamber on the thawing table below. Once the chamber is secured to the thawing table, some of the catheters begin to be attached to the outer port of the chamber. In the control room, the supervisor is issuing a series of orders.
"Start thawing."
"Inject the nutrient solution."
"Pay attention to her vital signs."
……
After a short period of five minutes, the red color on the cryony module of No. 88 gradually turned green, which means that the thawing procedure has ended, and the vital signs of the 'Taiyi' people in the cabin are stable. Then the freezer compartment opened, a figure walked out, and a woman dressed appeared in Li Tong's sight. She wore long hair, looked at Li Tong indifferently on her deep-contoured face, and suddenly said, "Is there any smoke?" ”
Li Tong hesitated for a moment, then took out a cigarette from the side and handed it to him.
After a while, the woman changed into a soldier's tactical uniform, bit a cigarette in her mouth, and said lightly: "What's wrong?" ”
"Xenos have attacked the base! The enemy has already attacked the fourth armor layer. ”
"I'll just say you weren't so kind to let me out!" Putting the dagger in the scabbard behind her waist, Yu Lingwei walked out of the room.
The fourth layer of the base of the valley is an isolation layer made of thickened armor plates. At this moment when the base is now cut off from all passages, the only way to enter the core layer is to break the barrier. In one hall, more than a dozen second-order attackers were frantically attacking the entrances of the passages.
Gao Yang was also among them, looking at the people who were working in the middle of the hall, he said impatiently: "Let me come, otherwise I don't know how long it will take." ”
The old man smiled and nodded.
Gao Yang walked over and pulled the others apart. He glanced in the direction of the old man, his gaze swept over Yi Xueqing, who looked like a little girl, and snorted. Looking at the ground again, a layer of armor plate had already been cut, and Gao Yang jumped directly. Standing on the second layer of armor, his pupils shrank slightly, and the temperature around him immediately soared. There were flames rising from under Gao Yang's feet, at first it was just a wisp of flowing fire, but in the blink of an eye, the flowing fire continued, and a pillar of fire rushed up. In the flames, Gao Yang threw a punch down. The fist slammed into the armor plate, and the place where it was hit immediately sank as if it had been eroded by the heat, and the surrounding metal was liquid, with patches of red spots flashing in it.
Just as Gao Yang began to penetrate the armor plate, several cadres at the entrance of the hall passage heard a "ding" sound, like the sound of an elevator arriving. Several people looked at each other, then walked out of the hall. Along the passage to the elevator, sure enough, the elevator door was opening, and several people showed a cruel smile and took out their killing blades. When they saw that there was only one short-haired woman in the elevator, they pounced on it.
A moment later, everyone in the hall heard several screams.
The old man's eyes froze, and he said coldly to the fat man beside him, "Go and take a look." ”
The fat man Wang Dehai nodded, and called a few of his cadres to walk towards the entrance. Before they could reach the entrance, they heard footsteps coming from the passageway. A short-haired woman walked into the hall, her men dragging a corpse. threw the corpse aside, and then looked at Wang Dehai and said, "You guys are really unlucky." ”
"You are?" Wang Dehai's face was shocked, "Do it, kill this woman!" ”
But the few men standing in front of him were motionless, and Wang Dehai said angrily: "What are you doing, are you deaf?" I'm telling you to do it! ”
"Dead people don't move."
"What?" Wang Dehai was still suspicious, and suddenly saw that all his subordinates in front of him shook their bodies and all fell to the ground. There was a red thorn on their foreheads at some point, the red thorn was bright and dazzling, and Wang Dehai was stunned on the spot.
He didn't see when the woman did it, and his subordinates all had a second-order level. The woman in front of her actually killed them all while talking and laughing.
Wang Dehai subconsciously took two steps back, and was thinking about how to escape, when he heard an old man sigh from behind: "Come back, Dehai." ”
The fat man was so relieved that he didn't even dare to let go of his hateful words, and hurriedly retreated to the old man's side. The old man had already stood up, closed the paper fan, squinted at the woman and said, "Scarlet thorn? Are you Yu Lingwei? ”
"Don't you tell your men to stop? If he continues to sabotage, don't blame me for being unkind. ”
The old man's expression was solemn, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Stop, Gao Yang." ”
Gao Yang, who had already blasted through the second layer of armor, heard this, jumped on the ground and shouted, "Why, sacrifice." It's almost ......."
A cold hand gently rested on his neck at some point, and the place where the five fingers fell happened to be his major artery, and then he heard Yi Xueqing's voice sound behind him: "If you stop it, stop it, the sacrifice won't say it a second time." ”
Gao Yang immediately stopped.
"What are you going to do? Are you going to go to war with us? ”
Yu Lingwei said coldly: "If you guys get out now, I can stop doing it, it's too late, but it's too late." ”
"Presumptuous, who gave you the courage to point fingers at Fan Lao...... a xenomorph suddenly roared, but before he finished speaking, his head suddenly flew up.
The old man suddenly smiled coldly, and after a while, he said, "I accept your proposal, let's go." ”
He walked straight to the exit of the hall. All the xenos behind them silently followed behind the old man.
On the way back to the base, Lin Ci could hardly believe his eyes. The base was a mess, with signs of battle everywhere, bullet holes in the walls, and blood on the ground being cleaned, all of which indicated that the base had just experienced a fierce battle. In particular, a corpse covered with a white cloth was constantly being transported from his side, and one can imagine the tragedy of this battle.
"Orange, what do you think is the matter?" The fat man's voice trembled: "Could it be that the base has also been invaded by xenomorphs, in this case, where else is safe?" ”
Lin Ci patted him on the shoulder and said, "Calm down, the base must be fine." Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to fight against xenos for so long. ”
At this time, the radio sounded in the base, summoning all xenomorph students to report to the training hall immediately.
Walking into the hall and seeing that there were not many people scattered, Lin Ci felt a heavy heart. Less than one-third of the 50 trainees returned safely this time, which shows how heavy the losses were. Some teams are even wiped out, and even those that survive are often less than two.
"Captain! What about the Rose Ones? The fat man asked suddenly.
"They're all dead, Seven, Yang Tao, and Rose, they're all dead."
The fat man had a sour nose and turned his head away.
Lin Ci sighed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "But at least we are alive, there is still hope for us to live, and we still have hope to avenge them!" ”
"That's right." A slightly hoarse voice sounded behind them, and Lin Ci and the others hurriedly turned around, and it turned out to be the chief instructor Cheng Xiao. She looked a little tired, her left hand was still bandaged, and she looked like she had just left the battlefield.
"Instructor, you are ......," Lin Ci said.
"It's nothing, it's just a small injury, and it will be fine in a few days." Cheng Xiao walked through the crowd and came to the high platform. She picked up the microphone, looked at the people below and said, "It's nice to see you guys again." ”
Looking at these young faces, but already carrying heavy burdens, Cheng Xiao sighed in her heart, and said: "I know what you have been through, in the past day, you have lost important partners and close friends. You may only be able to watch as the faces that were once familiar are ruthlessly torn apart before your eyes, telling you what hell is ......"
"But from the moment we become aliens, we are no longer humans, but ghosts. Death is our friend, and hell is our companion. Whether it is now or in the future, our destiny will always be the devil composed of blood and internal organs. ”
"In that hell, we have to kill the monsters, the bloodthirsty monsters."
"I know you're going to be afraid, but we only have courage to help us overcome anything!"
"Disbanded."
When the crowd had dispersed, she turned around and saw another person standing: "Why don't you leave?" ”
"Because time is pressing." Lin Ci said in a deep voice: "Instructor Cheng, can you train me now, I still want to learn more things." ”
A smile gradually appeared on Cheng Xiao's face.
The atmosphere in Li Tong's office was solemn, and he was listening to the report of the secret technique next to him: "Zhongwei, this time the xenomorph students suffered heavy losses, 31 people were sacrificed, and only 19 survivors were killed, and none of those prisoners escaped from Ruined City. ”
"From the beginning of the xenomorph attack on the fortress of Ruined City, this seems to be a trap, in addition, the monsters are very concerned about accurately grasping the time and place of our actual combat, and knowing the location of our base. So my guess is that there should be traitors inside the base. The secret technique analyzed.
"Oh? But if a different species comes in, it will definitely show its feet. ”
The secretary was stunned: "You mean, there are humans who have taken refuge in monsters?" ”
Just then, the door was slammed open.
Seeing the gloom on Li Feng's face, the secretary said, "I still have something to do, I'll deal with it first." ”
When he left, he did not forget to close the door for the two fathers and sons. After the door closed, Li Tong frowned and said: "Leaving the base without permission led to the attack of xenos, and the base was almost lost, Li Feng, you know how serious this is!" ”
Listening to his father's questioning, Li Feng said in a stiff tone: "I am willing to accept the punishment." ”
Li Tong snorted and said, "There are currently only two third-order warriors in the valley base, you and Yu Lingwei, and there are many places where you still need to contribute. ”
"Father, I want to ask you, when will the xeno-eradication plan be implemented?"
Li Tong's shoulders shook slightly, and his voice became low: "Where did you hear these things?" ”
"Is it true? Answer me? Li Feng drank.
Li Tong's face suddenly sank, and he yelled a little angrily: "Li Feng, do you know what you're doing?!" ”
