17- Wings of the Night
"We decided to transfer some soldiers who have not gone to the front line and some scientific research personnel to form 20 to 30 'albatross' squads, and assign them to various towns and cities to cooperate with the local military and police to complete the task." Captain Moz said. He sat around the table with three other captains, Sam, Yellow, and Marotta, as well as several officers.
"Can you have more people?" Huang Fu asked.
Moz shook his head and said: "Now the battle on the front line is urgent, and we need to replenish troops like there at any time, and we can't affect their fighting." Although the situation has improved a little now, we are not fighting an easy battle today...... The orc world is in a big place. β
"Maybe we can destroy the portal." Marotta proposed, "Let's say overload the portal's energy and stuff. β
"Not even a nuclear warhead can make a crack in the portal." "Besides, the energy emitted by the portal is about 30 billion joules per minute when it is activated, and if it is overloaded and explodes, the consequences for the orc world will be self-evident." β
......
"Leopard Rees, someone wants to see you." Wu Qiming walked in and said. Hearing this, Reese followed him downstairs, where a cheetah cub was waiting for him in a wheelchair carrying a person.
"Do you remember me, Nikolai?" The cheetah in the wheelchair raised its head and asked in a weak voice.
"Uncle Xu Zhenghua?!" Leopard Ris strode forward, "Why are you here, and why are you like this?" β
"I heard that you went to Kedan on a mission on the fifteenth of this month." Xu Zhenghua said.
"yes, how do you know?"
"I'm already in a wheelchair, why don't I know yet?" Xu Zhenghua coughed vigorously and said.
"What do you mean, is it ......" Leopard Rees, remembering the situation of chasing DIVE that night, suddenly grabbed the wheelchair and shouted, "It's not true, tell me it's not true!" β
"I'm sorry, Nikolai, for not setting a good example in front of you." Xu Zhenghua said, "Your parents trust me the most, but I ...... now"
"Why are you doing that?" Leopard Ris asked with tears in his eyes.
"Please forgive me, Nikolai." Xu Zhenghua said, "DIVE captured my son Xu Fu, they used him to do something that he couldn't stand at all, I tried my best to save my son, so I joined the rebels, but one day we were captured during the battle, DIVE can free my son, but I have to work ......."
"Xu Fu, what are you doing when you are being arrested?" Leopard Reese looked at the cheetah behind the wheelchair.
"DIVE was working on a cloned orc, and he was treated as one of the first experimental samples, and then they ...... I can't go on. β
Leopard Rees hesitated for a moment and said, "You two can leave." β
Before leaving, Xu Fu stopped Leopard Reese.
"Brother Leopard Reese." He cried out, "Can you help me with something?" β
"What's wrong?" Leopard Rees crouched down.
Xu Fu said, "Please save my father." β
......
It was August, and the weather was very hot in the morning and evening, but when it rained, it was cloudy and windy, and he shivered a lot about it.
"It only took four days for the orcs to turn this place into a dead city." "I guess the people were still asleep when the clones started their hunt." β
"Guardians, report the situation."
"Lake reports that no situation has been found." As soon as Lake finished speaking, several pickup trucks drove towards them, and he quickly pulled Shi Yu to hide in an abandoned convenience store. The glare of the headlights soon came in from the outside, and then quickly faded away. They followed these wagons. The cars made a few turns and finally stopped in front of an abandoned hospital. A few soldiers got off the car, they opened the cargo box, took out a few wooden boxes from it, and walked into the hospital, which the two Rykers followed. In the lobby on the first floor of the hospital, there are many identical boxes, as well as two piles of sandbags for machine guns.
"This is probably the location of the 'lair'." Shi Yu said.
"This place is connected to several very important towns, and DIVE has built its 'lair' here because it is a direct threat to the surrounding area." Lake Road.
They fumbled around the hospital for a while and found the freight elevator that was still running.
"Aha, what a saving effort to climb the stairs!" Shi Yugang wanted to press the upward button of the elevator, but was grabbed by Lake.
"You're looking for death, as soon as the elevator door opens, we're going to be shot to death immediately." He led Shi Yu to the staircase, but as soon as they walked up the stairs, there was a sound of footsteps from upstairs.
"Forget it." "Looks like we're going to have to go a different route." β
"What route?"
"Ordinary people can't walk."
As expected, Lake's route was to the side of the hospital, and they climbed to the top of the hospital with a rope, intending to go down from the top floor into the hospital.
"I know it's a nuisance." "But looking at the current situation, the only way to do this is to avoid being shot indiscriminately." β
They pried open the door to the top floor of the hospital and entered the top floor of the building, where there was nothing to attract their attention, and when they tried to go down, an iron door suddenly stood in the way of the two of them.
"When it rains, use a fiber optic probe."
"Yes." Shi Yu took out something like a wire and passed it through the keyhole, and the video terminal in his hand immediately showed the scene behind the door - there were also many boxes behind the door, and an orc wearing a chemical protective suit was taking out several cans of red liquid from one of the boxes, and there were several soldiers standing next to him, after a while, he put the liquid back in the box, and then lifted the box and left with those soldiers. Shi Yu retracted the probe and gestured to Lake, who took out the gas cutting gun, cut the lock on the door, and then gently opened the door and walked in with Shi Yu.
"There's nothing in these boxes." Shi Yu said, "The red liquid just now should be blood." β
"There's nothing to find here, let's hurry down."
They walked down the next floor to the ward level, and the presence of several guards caught them off guard, but fortunately they quickly jumped into an unoccupied ward at the end of the hallway. They knew in their hearts that their current strength could not compete with the guards in the "lair".
"There's movement!" This shout made the hairs of the two stand on end instantly. Shi Yu clenched the rifle in his hand, he didn't know when the first bullet would be fired.
"Don't scream, you bastard!"
"I actually heard movement just now!"
"Well, if it's not your auditory hallucinations, or there's a ghost in this hospital. Let's go, if we continue like this, everyone will be driven crazy by you! It was only when the footsteps became quieter that they finally breathed a sigh of relief. The grips on Lake's guns are filled with small droplets.
"It's really dangerous...... I was thinking about our hundred ways to die. Shi Yu said.
"Don't be so pessimistic." Lake actually didn't know the bottom in his heart, maybe this time he was just lucky, if it was another reconnaissance team, then the ending might not have been the same. "But we at least know that the right path is impossible."
"And where are we going to get in from?"
Lake pointed to the vent next to him and said, "The hospital's air circulation system is extremely developed, at least people can get in." β
Shi Yu didn't think much about it, so he and Lake got into the vent together. It was connected to a lot of rooms, even downstairs, so they had to fumble little by little, and finally, they stopped at another vent.
"Listen." Lake said.
"God help me." A cry of joy came from below, "If only the production efficiency of the cloned orcs could be increased, and their intelligence could be upgraded...... It would be a miracle in the history of biology! β
"Wang Lingfeng? He's one of our targets! Lake said.
"Is that the fox?"
"Looks like we've come to the right place." Lake took out a piece of cloth with electronic components and spread it on the air outlet and said, "Let's step back, wait until this hot explosive can melt up a large part of this place, and then we can jump down together, it's not far from the ground, you know?" β
"Okay."
"Ready...... Initiation! Ryker pressed the remote control, and the cloth immediately emitted a dazzling white light, and the entire passage was immediately illuminated, which made them have to close their eyes. After the white light and the rush of heat had disappeared, the vents had been opened wide, and the edges of the gap were still burning red.
"Go down!" The two of them jumped out of the vent together and immediately searched the surroundings, but strangely, Wang Lingfeng was gone.
"What about others?" Lake asked.
Suddenly throwing several green jars from the window, they realized that they had fallen into a trap that the enemy had laid in advance.
"Put on your gas mask!"
Unfortunately, it was too late, the poison gas had already taken over the room, and it had entered the lungs of the two of them. Before Shi Yu put on the gas mask, he felt that his feet suddenly fell into a numbness, and then to his whole body, he finally didn't even have the strength to hold the gas mask, so his eyes turned black and he fell to the ground.
"Sir, there's something wrong with their physiology."
"What's going on?"
"There's an anesthetic that gets into their bloodstream."
"It's a big problem." Wu Qiming turned around and said, "Lock their positions immediately, and we'll get those people up." β
Shi Yu regained some consciousness, and he opened his eyes on the ground, to find himself lying in a locked room with Lake, and the moonlight outside the window shone on him, illuminating Lake at the same time...... No, it wasn't Lake, but a cloned orc modeled after him.
"Hey, I'm ......" Shi Yu got up from the ground, and then stepped back some distance, this action also woke up the clone orc lying on the ground, it jumped up, ran to Shi Yu, sniffed at him, and then curled up in front of him.
"Like your cloned orcs?" Wang Lingfeng asked outside the window.
"What did you do to me?" Shi Yu asked.
"Oh, this cloned orc was made a long time ago, and we just took a little bit from you, sorry for not having your permission." Wang Lingfeng took out a small test tube of white liquid, and Shi Yu immediately blushed when he saw the test tube.
"Hey, you ...... me just now" Shi Yu didn't continue, he grabbed his pants and sat on the ground.
"One of the flaws of the cloned orc is that it doesn't attack its own prototype, so you can tease it however you want." After Wang Lingfeng finished speaking, he left.
"This ......" Shi Yu looked at his body lying on the ground without saying a word. Listening to the increasingly dense gunfire downstairs, he was glad that the sound didn't wake the demon.
Together, Leopard Rees and Edor pried open the shutter door revealing the yin energy, and the guards ran inside, only to see that there were many capsules-like cabins and huge petri dishes on this floor, each containing an orc, and the petri dishes contained their replicas, some of which had just taken shape, and looked like little people made of mud.
"Lake and Shiyu are upstairs." Lana, who ran upstairs, said.
"The anti-chemical warfare troops have entered the battlefield, you immediately open the doors of all the cabins and rescue all those people, and the petri dish will leave him alone." Wu Qiming said.
After a while, the medic and the chemical defense team arrived at the scene, they woke up the orcs in the cabin, and then left the scene with them, and Shi Yu and Lake were also rescued.
"This is the base for the production of cloned orcs." Edo said.
"Hey, did you see my body just now?" Shi Yu asked.
"I have one of my cloned orcs there, too." "I touched it with my hand." β
Shi Yu turned his head and let out a gagging sound.
The longer he stood in this place, the more uneasy he felt, and this uneasiness kept filling his head, even blocking out the sound of the walkie-talkie.
"Call the Guardians, can you hear me?"
"This is the Guardian, the signal is normal." Finen said.
"The enemies in the hospital have all been eliminated, and the cloned orcs have been cleared, so you can come out."
"Understood, we'll evacuate immediately!"
"Leopard Rees, let's go!" Edo said.
But Leopard Rees still stood still. Suddenly, he leaned to the left and hit the wall, his face still showing pain.
"Leopard Reese, what's wrong with you?" Edo and Fiin hurried over to help him.
"My threat response...... It's too much fluctuation......" Leopard Rees finished speaking, and suddenly covered his mouth with his hand, and cold sweat began to break out.
"Leopard Reese, are you okay?" Fine looked down and saw blood running from between his fingers and dripping to the ground. Eventually, his whole body suddenly went limp, and all the weight was added to the hands of the two of themβit seemed that Leopard Rees had passed out.
"There are enemies!" Lana shot outside the door, and a clone orc who had just tried to run through the door fell to the ground, and Shi Yu found that the clone orc was actually the body of himself that he had just been locked up with.
"This is my ......"
"Leopard Rees has fainted, hurry up and send a medic over!" Edo shouted.
"Could it be this cloned orc?" Finen thought to herself.
......
"Wang Lingfeng, I'm glad you came back alive." He turned around drunkenly and said, "But the destruction of this 'lair' was caused by your inconsiderate arrangement of patrols. β
"I'm sorry."
"Well, the little nest doesn't affect my plans for the future." He left without looking back. "What's next for you?" Wang Lingfeng muttered to himself, he walked to the weapons warehouse, and immediately saw the "next plan" he had just said - a neat row of special aviation explosives.
......
As soon as Leopard Rees regained consciousness, a sharp cramping welled up in his heart, and he gasped for breath and lay back on his bed.
"Leopard Reese is awake!" Edo on the side said happily.
"Great!" Fein Road.
"Where am I?" He asked.
"You're at the central hospital in Badlik...... Do you remember Badlik? Edo asked.
"Where we were tricked last time?"
"Looks like you're quite conscious."
After a while, a doctor walked in, and Leopard Rees saw that he was a leopard.
"Nicholas Leopardis, did you wake up with any adverse reactions?"
"I have some angina."
"It's normal." The doctor said as he adjusted the heart-rate monitor at the bedside, "Orcs with a threatening response can feel similar to you at times, but for a variety of reasons. This is more serious, although you don't need to take medicine for this kind of situation, but you should have a good rest, and you can return to normal after a few days. β
After the doctor left, Leopard Rees asked about Lake and Shiyu.
"They are now being examined to make sure that the cloned orcs they come into contact with are not carrying pathogens." "After you passed out, a cloned orc broke into the house, but luckily Lana shot it in time. And guess what? β
"What?"
"The prototype of that cloned orc is Imagawa Shiyu!"
