Volume 2 The Federation Chapter 32 The Umbrella of Eternal Life
They traveled for two hours in an armored jeep to the Jurassic Memorial Plaza near the Federal University of Biomedical Sciences and Technological University, where an iconic statue --- a dinosaur statue, a statue of a tyrannosaurus dragon more than 20 meters long, worthy of the top predator of the Cretaceous period, with a head as large as a wheeled cart and a long, heavy tail flung across the ground, like an entrenched bronze python. Its forelimbs were very short, almost twice the length of a human arm, and its two forelimbs curled up with three small toed claws, and its open and closed jaws, its teeth were conical like bananas, enough to easily crush any fragile bone, and the "Umbrella of Eternal Life" made it so realistic that even Tianxia unconsciously lowered his steps, for fear that it would suddenly wake up from the gray behemoth stone sculpture and turn into a beast that chooses people to devour, but it is only a statue after all.
Ahead, there were countless ruins burned by the flames, the one that was said to have burned from the center of the capital for a day, and then raged in the vicinity for a long time before being extinguished by a torrential rain. It was now covered in charred ruins and crumbling rubble, but they hadn't encountered any white spiders or vines for a while, and they hadn't come up since the flames had hidden them underground. Unfortunately they got lost, and even more unfortunately, none of the people in the entourage were familiar with the situation in the neighborhood.
Located on the outskirts of the eastern part of the capital, the Federal University of Biomedical Sciences is an extremely large comprehensive school with one of the best specializations in the federal field of biomedical sciences, and few people know about it, but even fewer are familiar with its specific topography.
There are countless schools in the vicinity of the capital, and the most commonly remembered are the Federal University, the Vallean Royal Academy, the Imperial University of Arts and Sciences, the Federal Polytechnic University, the Federal Military Academy, and several other famous institutions.
The soldiers here are either still in high school, or they are not good at studying to join the army, no one has ever gone to school in this vicinity, and no one lives here, for this reason, the middle-aged uncle kept complaining, "You should find a guide, we can't understand this map at all." ”
This person who can even manipulate the CMC power heavy armor can't read the map, which makes Tianxia a little confused, but she tries to keep silent.
"I can't help it," Luna glared at him, "I pointed a gun at the student who gave us a message, and he said he would rather be shot than come back here, what can I do?" None of the other people who knew the neighborhood wanted to come back, these cowards. ”
"If it's me, I should teach him a lesson," the uncle spat out, "and let him understand how terrible it is to refuse a chief's request, and I think the cutie may be missing such a partner." ”
"Cutie is dead," Luna muttered, "a fool thought it was too dangerous and slaughtered it in the middle of the night, and I had no choice but to throw him to cutie." ”
"Big cutie?" Tianxia was puzzled.
"The other one was bigger, stronger, and more ferocious, and we caught an infected refuge and put him in a cage, and the next day he became a big cutie."
"Oh," Tianxia nodded, muttering to herself, "There is still such an operation. I knew that I should have sent the little girl to the cage in the first place, so as to satisfy her father's desire to come in with her, and to bring another experiment to the troops, which was not considered a violation of military orders. ”
The middle-aged uncle asked puzzledly, "What is the little girl talking about?" ”
Luna laughed, "She's regretting how she didn't use her brains in the first place, but it's not too late, lo and behold, we seem to have met her again." ”
The little girl, who was hiding alone in a corner, her hair was messy, her sleeves were torn, her forehead had a small scratch, and her blood had clotted into a scab, and she was crouching on the ground and hugging her knees, her eyes glazed over, as if she had noticed the arrival of the jeep, and she looked at them with her wounded, godless eyes, and her father, and the other man, were not there.
"It's a rare coincidence, have you seen it," Luna found the little girl with the help of the reminder of the car's thermal detector, and if it weren't for her sharp eyes, she would have really missed it. "This is the girl that our little virgin spared, how can she survive in such a place, and the white spider didn't come to the door?"
"Wow, it's so cute, no wonder she can't do it, if you want me to say, whoever dares to do it will kill whoever dares to do it," the uncle whistled, "I have decided to marry her as my wife." ”
"I thought you were going to be an unmarried person for the rest of your life, but she was infected, look at her arm, do you want to marry a white spider as a wife?" Luna pointed to the little girl's arm, the rotting scar still lingering on her slender but dusty arm, and it was even more terrible than the day before, the scar had crawled up to her neck, and even if it was further away from the beam, everyone knew that her hour was running out.
Another young man interjected, "So what? Lori died under her skirt, and she was also a ghost, Sergeant Luna, I plan to live in the same iron cage with her, protect her with my life, and no one is allowed to stop me. ”
"Her father is supposed to be dead, and so is her uncle, I'm sure she's alone," Luna shrugged, "Please, who is going to give her one last mercy." ”
Uncle waved his hand, "Don't look at me, my gun only deals with white spiders, and when it becomes a big spider, it's not too late for me to take care of it." “
"Have a little conscience," Luna pulled out her gun and tugged at the safety bolt, "she's miserable enough, you can't do what a man is supposed to do." “
The men and women looked at each other, but no one was willing to reach out and take the gun.
Seeing their hesitation, Luna couldn't help but laugh, "What are you guys hesitating about??" Do you pity the fragrance and cherish the jade? Think about it, even if she is not infected, when she is old enough, will she lie on the bed of any of you, no, just your pustules, none of them will touch her, at that time, there will be a rich and handsome man whom you are very jealous of, he will sleep with her day and night, fuck her, annoy her, make her moan, watch her shit, listen to her fart, why bother? She looked mature and clear, "Kill her, for her good, but also for our good." “
"Damn Luna," the uncle grumbled, "you're jealous, naked jealousy. “
"Jealous of a little girl who is dying?" Before she could speak, Tianxia snatched her pistol, "I was the one who left the pain to her," she pushed the car door in a dull manner, with a little sadness in her tone, "I should have relieved her." “
Tianxia didn't know how she had come to the girl, and when she came back to her senses, she was already standing in front of the little girl who had become wooden and sluggish, her eyes had completely lost the bravery they had shown in the first effort, and only endless numbness and despair remained. Her neck, her arms, her cheeks, any exposed parts of her were gradually eroded by the rotting pustules, tightly wrapped in the fiery blood red and the dark ash of corruption, and the whole slender body exuded a thick fishy stench, and the smell of death.
"Where's your father?" She asked.
The girl's eyes didn't move, she just raised her head slightly, she finally saw Tianxia, and the gun in her hand.
"Where's your uncle?" Tianxia continued to ask.
The girl's lips trembled slightly, and she never spoke.
"Where's your mother?"
Mom? Hearing the word, the little creature finally had a reaction, but not any one to be happy about, "dead........" she looked at the ruins in the distance with fear, "she ...... He's dead....... Family...... No ......."
Well, having nothing, being alone, and suffering from a certain death-threatening illness all showed that she needed compassion....... Tianxia raised the pistol, "Do you want to see them?" “
The little girl's thin eyelids trembled, and two lines of tears slipped down her pale face, and she gently curled up her slender body and nodded cautiously, "Handsome big sister," she asked, "can I really see them?" "She seemed to be full of anticipation, but she was never angry, she was a fairly intelligent girl, and she knew what it meant to die.
"I don't know," Tianxia pulled the trigger.
The sound of the gun shook the sky, startling countless blackened crows, they screamed, danced, circled, and witnessed everything in the sky, it was a feast for the crows, Tianxia gloomily threw the gun to the ground, turned and sat back in the car.
"You shouldn't have dropped the gun.......," the middle-aged uncle complained.
"Don't worry," Tianxia swore, "when you die, I'll pry your power armor off." ”
The crowd was silent.
They soon continued on their way, lapping around the neighborhood, and when their patience was almost exhausted, they finally decided to get out of the car and walk steadily, fully armed. Following the coordinates of the dinosaur statue in the Jurassic Memorial Plaza, they first walked two hundred meters to the north, and then turned right, among the high-rise buildings, there is an umbrella-shaped high-rise building standing faintly in front of it, which should be the headquarters of the federal subsidiary of the super giant enterprise "Eternal Umbrella", legend has it that the Jurassic Park project was made here, so they carved a tyrannosaurus dragon statue in the Jurassic Memorial Plaza to commemorate this great project.
In the distance, they stopped at the high-rise entertainment supermarket directly opposite the umbrella building, because they saw several white spiders lurking around the umbrella building, lurking in the most damp and dark corners, motionless waiting for the prey inside to come out.
Tianxia carefully enters the supermarket with Luna, there are four floors inside, but each floor is messy. The evacuees fled into the supermarket and took so much food that the place was littered with food scraps, traces of fighting, and, of course, human corpses, and even more disgusting buzzing of dense flies. Tianxia walked to the checkout counter, and the monitor of the entire supermarket was in a short-circuit state, which seemed to be completely damaged.
Holding their breath, they began to search around for anomalies, stockpiling warehouses, staff dormitories, cubicle corridors, public restrooms, and staff restrooms, and they lined up every nook and cranny to make sure there were no hidden white spiders and evacuees.
"There is indeed no one around, usually only in places where survivors gather, but most of the white spiders lurking near the beam in the center of the capital are doing some ulterior secrets."
"So there aren't many white spiders here?" The middle-aged uncle in the CMC power heavy armor carefully looked for a suitable fire output point in the hall downstairs, and he tried his best to slow down his steps so as not to make a noise when he stepped on something.
"As far as we've seen, it's very few, but just because there's not a lot of it doesn't mean you can let your guard down," Luna cautiously pulled the bolt of her rifle on, "Slow down, we need to dive inside." ”
"Isn't it a school?"
"The school is going too, and we're going to go here, and the top has specially instructed us that if we can make sure that there are still living scholars who are good at biological genes in the Umbrella of Eternal Life, as well as their equipment and data, those are precious possessions, and we must bring them back, and lo and behold, they have sealed off the building."
She was right, the umbrella-shaped building was now completely covered by a metal cover lowered from the top of the umbrella, and it became a tight shelter.
"Be careful with the Hellfire," Luna pulled out two jet "Hellfires" (a long-range high-energy flamethrower that can be used without insulating equipment) that she had brought out from the armored jeep hanging from her back, she carefully patted the fuel canisters of the Hellfire Jets, and handed one of them to a soldier, "This guy is still afraid of flames, remember, Fujiman's key point is in their connection with the other Fujimans and the mouth of that disgusting sarcoma sucker, aimed at the burn, and the white spider's key point is that damn disgusting eyeball, Be accurate, or pray for the Milky Way. ”
