Chapter 109: Choice
A pungent smell of bodily fluid erupted from the sarcoma, and after eating pain, he took a few steps back.
Oakland fired three shots in quick succession, and the flames exploded directly in the monster's face, and everything was calm.
The barrel was still smoking, and the thing was gone, leaving only a few pieces of minced meat and coffee-colored bodily fluids scattered all over the floor.
Opening the nest, retracting the cartridge casings, and reloading the last two bullets, Oakland turns on the flashlight and tries to find the direction the monster left.
The hall has a total of four doors that are embedded in the circular wall. But the point is, all the doors are closed, and Oakland has no way of finding the direction of the monster's departure.
She didn't put down her gun, it was her only safeguard.

Hint: You're lucky, but luck doesn't always come with you.
Uckland fell to his knees weakly and suddenly found that he had lost a lot more blood than he had imagined. If she doesn't receive treatment, she will probably ββββ no, and she will definitely die.
What to do?

Mission accomplished
Item obtained: Medical kit

Almost immediately, the words on the panel were updated. The first thing that appeared was a set of clothes pants, on the floor a step away.
Then she felt a surge of heat in her body, and the wound on her left rib was slowly healing!
She remembered the sentence she had seen earlierββββYou're lucky." What does this refer to? Does it mean that the task was completed ahead of schedule? Or did it happen that the task of finding a pistol was triggered?
Oakland crawled over to his clothes and began rummaging. For a moment, she put on her underwear, then a black tank top, gray combat pants and booties.
There is also a small package on the waistband of the trousers.
Unzipping it open, Auckland found a battery and a small round ball, about the size of a ping-pong ball.
Ping pong...... Another inexplicable word.
The panel emerges and the tasks are updated.
Inventory: Pistol, Bullet x2, Flashlight, Battery x3, Smoke grenade x1
Mission: Evading the Hunt (Phase 3)
Difficulty: C
Settlement: 2nd Generation Defisor developed by Lab 16, Flamethrower (Completion A- or higher)
Hint: You need to unravel the fog and unleash evil spirits to escape
Oakland fell to his knees, gasping for air.
She became more and more incomprehensible.
Evil spirits? What is that? It doesn't feel like much of a scientific thing. If you think about it, is it the monster just now?
And that Defisor......
Deficior, loser, refers to a fit loser.
This sentence instantly popped out of my mind. Auckland was not surprised at all, memories are like this, they always appear inexplicably.
The loser is likely to be the monster just now.
So what's next? The wound has healed, but it still hurts when I run. Looking around the hall, there was nothing else to furnish on.
By the way, it seems to have been mentioned, and there is a love letter where the pistol is placed.
Whatever it is, now that you have a package, take it first, maybe it will be useful?
Sure enough, I hadn't seen it in a hurry, but under the light of the flashlight, a yellowed envelope lay quietly under the lattice.
Auckland took out the love letter. The entire letter
The seal was brittle, and the glue became a hard piece, which fell off with a light tug.
Biting the flashlight with his mouth, Oakland puts the love letter on the table and begins
The hazy handwriting seemed to take her through distant time and space, and she saw the human warmth that had long dissipated in the disaster.
Where exactly is Tuliu, the author of this letter, now?
Auckland shook his head.
......
Dear Auckland,
This is my last goodbye to you. I'm going to fall into a deep sleep soon. This era is coming to an end, and I'm glad to be able to spend my last days with you.
I asked you to help me send two letters, one to General Zhu at the headquarters, and one for you. You may wonder why they find you and not anyone else, and that's because no one can be trusted anymore.
Almost everyone in the lab had evil intentions, including Major Malmord, the most honest-looking guy. I've heard of people who have been killed because someone didn't want to risk going back to the surface and wanted to grab the freezer. Although he was eventually killed by the Secret Service, this is clearly not an isolated case.
Didn't you apply for a Sleeper replacement before? I don't know if you succeeded, but anyway, it would be romantic to see you again after 10,000 years.
At that time, it will be the twenty-eighth human epoch.
There are some things that must be explained to you here.
First, the experiment went wrong. That's right, didn't I discuss this with you before? Lieutenant Kochahan suspected that the A1029 program had been initiated, which eventually led to the loss of contact with Lab Three. However, I never mentioned it to anyone, and Lieutenant Kochahan and I actually knew each other.
We've been friends since the days of the ground.
Although there were a few short intermittent sleeps, we were able to keep in touch until the disaster struck.
Lieutenant Kocha Khan finally died under the Ahuna Trench. His submarine gas valve went wrong and ended up in a flat piece of scrap metal.
I'm sure he didn't die in the process of activating the A1029 program, because he was on the run for suicide at the time.
The few who were with him had killed his teammates and brothers. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer when he set out, so he decided to spend the last days of his life to take revenge.
He didn't start A1029 at all, and someone was using him as a cover-up.
This man, most likely, was Major Malmed. Han Chan, that big man of 1.9 meters, do you remember? He was asleep three years later than I did, so I told him that if the fit person appeared, he would be killed!
He's kind of a friend I trust a lot. I secretly left him a large amount of equipment in the hope of stopping Major Malmoud, or anyone else attempting to execute A1029 in Lab Nine. I don't want to be inexplicably awakened from my slumber, thrown into an extremely unstable plane, and then mutated or died in agony.
You know what, I'm scared. Not only is he afraid of death and the unknown of the next era, but he is also afraid that you won't have time to leave, Han Chan failed to stop the plan, and then everything came to naught.
I am not a brave man, I do not have the determination of Kocha Khan, I do not have the strength of Han Chan's monster, and I do not have your carefulness. At the end of the day, I'm just a poor logistical manager, typing on the keyboard every day.
Now all plans are unknown, and all of them are born out of human greed. I don't know what will happen in the end, but I just want to say that I love you.
The one who fell asleep, Tuliu.
......
Oakland's mouth was wide open, his face full of no
Credible.
This is a letter addressed to her?
Wait, but how does the system determine it, it's called a love letter?
It's obviously super secret information, okay?
Speaking of Tuliu...... Who is this person? After reading the letter, I always felt that he was so familiar, but I couldn't remember it.
Splitting headaches.
Oakland tossed the letter back to the package and looked at what he knew now.
It's confusing.
So, this is Lab Nine? And she, Auckland, may return to the surface or become a sleeper.
But...... When she woke up, she was soaked in a liquid like a suspected preservative, naked and had no memory.
What's the situation?
Task Tips: Please speed up the host, otherwise the difficulty of the task will increase.
The panel emerges, giving very bad information.
Oakland sighed and began to move.
The first door.
It was chained by iron chains that were not the structure of the door itself, and it was neat and tidy, except for the usual dust.
Quickly run to the second door.
The chain was broken, and there was a pungent smell when I got closer, which was a bad feeling.
The third door.
It is bare, without locks, without chains, and opens with a push, and unlike the previous iron doors, it is made of mahogany. The corners are all in tatters.
Oakland muttered twice and decided to take the first door, at least the oldest traces, and the likelihood of a fit passing by was almost zero.
The chains are still strong after all these years. Auckland tried to tug twice, but there was no movement.
What to do?
She didn't want to make too much noise, which meant she had to choose the other two doors.
The second door has a smell, and this looks more like a recent one, so to sum up, it's the third door that is more friendly.
Auckland shook her head and shone her flashlight in front of her, the darkness behind the door being torn apart, and the bottomless corridor overwhelmed her.
She didn't even know if she would collide with the fit person in the next second.
Closing the door with his hand, the cold breath seeped through the thin clothes. Auckland shuddered.
Posters were pasted on the walls on both sides, and the ground was no longer clean concrete, but sparsely lying on the ground with a few rotting corpses.
There was still a faint amount of dust in the air, but there was no smell of corpses.
With a flashlight in his left hand and a pistol in his right, Oakland cautiously stepped over a severed corpse, his boots striking the ground with a slight thump.
Calling up the panel, Auckland decided to take a look at what's next. She was dizzy when she read the "Invitation Book" just now, and after losing her memory, she inexplicably stuffed her with a bunch of complicated information, which was really bad.
Sure enough, it seems that as soon as you enter a new location, the quest will be updated.
Side Mission: Hell Road (triggered)
Trigger condition: Enter the corresponding location
Difficulty: A+
Settlement: Pistol Bullet x6, Shotgun (Obtained with completion B or higher)
Mission Description: Congratulations to the host for choosing the emergency escape route of Lab 9, and now the special mission, Hell Road, has been triggered. At 50 meters long, it is the longest of all corridors, and you will pass a total of 12 rooms along the way, reaching the end point and the end of the mission.
Tip: Watch your step
Oakland looked ahead, and countless dark figures slowly stood up.
That's what a nightmare looks like.
