Chapter 11: Teammates
Jiang Ke dragged his painful ankle back to Building 3, and the situation in the room had changed dramatically at this time. Most of the black pollutants that used to permeate everywhere have now turned greenish-brown, and the rest are transforming at a rate visible to the naked eye.
"Hmm...... Although the smell was terrible, it was so warm, like when I was a kid in my grandmother's house on the stove. Well, it actually tastes like, like when I threw a toy robot into the stove. Jaime glanced at the contaminants on the walls and asked, "The contaminants used to be black?" β
"Hmm", Jiang Ke had already bent down and began to rummage through the pollutants.
"The people in the command room must have locked themselves in because of fear, and they didn't dare to come out until they starved to death." Ruby remembered that his previous encounter was not much different, "If there is such a monster outside, I don't dare to come out." β
"But this monster is locked up," Jaime interjected, crouching near a contaminant that was being converted, "It's strange, these black contaminants must have been the original batch of Slots that had absorbed the radiation, and they would have turned greenish-brown after absorbing nuclear radiation, but they would have produced no heat, otherwise Alaska would have become equatorial long ago." β
Jiang Ke still hadn't found M-SEEN in this room, and he frowned a little puzzled. HE TOOK OUT HIS M-SEEN AND TRIED AGAIN TO FIND THE LOCATION OF THE M-SEEN. However, this time he gave the exact location on the screen, and the other party was still moving quickly.
Jiang Ke repeatedly confirmed the position, and limped in the direction indicated, "! Jiang Ke suddenly shouted.
βCIAOοΌβ Jaime shook his head in confusion.
Jiang Ke ran frantically towards the outside of the building, completely forgetting the sharp pain in his leg, he didn't know whether to look forward to it or worry at the moment, and even some despair that he couldn't feel. Maybe the team members were really nearby, he was looking forward to it, but at the same time, there was a voice in his heart telling him that he had been here for so many days, if the team members were really nearby, how could they not come to join him? What really happened to them? What the hell happened to this M-SEEN? A bad feeling flashed through his heart.
βFXXKοΌοΌοΌβ Jiang Ke rushed outside and found that the corpse on the ground was gone, leaving only a pool of blood and was slowly being covered by snow and dust, his heart tightened, and he turned his head to see Andrew barking at the sky.
There was a black shadow on the ground, and the monster's corpse smashed on the power grid, and the electricity passed through his body, and a disgusting smell of mushy instantly filled the field, and the monster slid limply to the ground.
There was a cry from the sky, and a giant eagle circled by, casting its huge figure on the ground.
"Isn't this the national bird?" Jaime looked up and said.
However, Jiang Ke didn't say a word, he looked at the M-SEEN who fell out of the monster in a daze, as if the whole person was choked, and his breathing and voice were stagnant. HE QUICKLY TOOK TWO STEPS FORWARD, PICKED UP THE M-SEEN ON THE GROUND, AND LOOKED AT THE CHARRED CORPSE WITH A COMPLICATED EXPRESSION.
It was the first time Jaime had seen Jiang Ke with such an expression, he had always been cold and tenacious in the past, no matter how powerful the enemy was, and how harsh the environment, he had no fear. And at this moment, he actually felt that Jiang Ke was a little ...... Lonely? However, this was only a moment, Jiang Ke's face was as usual in the next second, he tried to open the M-SEEN in his hand, but it all ended in failure.
RUBI WALKED OVER TO HIM AND TOOK THE M-SEEN, "MAYBE IT'S OVER-ELECTRIFIED," SHE GUESSED, AND BEGAN TO EXAMINE IT WITH THE TOOLS SHE HAD AT HAND.
The shadow of the "Whoop ......" giant eagle still hovers around the vicinity.
"Why doesn't it go?" The light was blocked by the eagle wings, and Ruby had to change positions to see the inside of the machine.
"Because there's food here," Jaime said, gesturing to the corpse hanging by the grid.
"But looking at it, you can't fly with a whole corpse."
"Yes, so it's hovering here, and the national bird has very good eyesight, and when other people of the same kind see it hovering here, they know that they have something to eat, and after a while they will have companions to hunt together", as soon as Jaime's voice fell, there was a "......" sound in the distance in the air. "You see, the second one is coming," he exclaimed proudly, "it's amazing, usually they feed only on fish, small mammals, and occasionally other birds, but now the environment has changed, the people have changed, and even the taste of birds has changed." Wouldn't it be the next plant mutation? β
Jiang Ke rummaged through the monster's corpse on the side, but still didn't find anything, and this corpse could no longer see his original appearance, let alone other features.
"Oh! Ke, it's flying towards its dinner! Jaime waved to Jiang Ke and pointed to the sky.
Jiang Ke received a reminder and took two steps back to the side, but his eyes never left the corpse.
"I think...... It's flying a little off, isn't it not very good in the eyes? Ruby said.
"Impossible! The national bird's eyesight has always been perfect, which can only show that it did not come for this corpse in the first place. Jaime explained.
"Oh......" Ruby said with a smirk after a slow pause, "Well, I think it's coming at you, James." β
Jaime was also looking at the sky, and when he heard this, his expression changed instantly, and he ran towards the place where there was cover, and the giant eagle pounced.
"Why are you still stunned! Run! They must have thought we were snatching their dinner and driving us away. After missing the blow, the giant eagle flew back into the air and circled for the next attack, while Jaime was frightened and shouted for Jiang Ke and Ruby to run back to the infirmary, "Hurry up, if you don't run for a while, there will be more!" We're going to be their add-on! β
The three of them, along with Andrew and An An, quickly returned to the infirmary, closed the door, and saw through the window of the infirmary that the giant eagle did not try to take the corpse this time, but stood on the side of the corpse and began to feast directly. The flesh was torn off piece by piece, and the roof of the infirmary was heard with the sound of the claws of the giant eagles rubbing against them, and as Jaime had expected, more of them fell to join the feast.
"First Pollutant, then the monster, and the threat from the sky! This camp is nothing short of a trap. Jaime said quickly, he had palpitations, thinking that if he hadn't dodged just now, he should have been trampled under the feet of the eagles and pecked at the flesh one by one, and he couldn't help but shiver all over.
Ruby watched Jaime silently from the sidelines, thinking that he had escaped from one siege and now fell into another, and couldn't help but feel a little negative. She handed the M-SEEN back to Jiang Ke, "It should be able to be opened, but the data and functions inside may be somewhat damaged." β
"Thank you", Jiang Ke nodded, took the M-SEEN and opened it. From the moment he saw this machine, he blamed himself for his carelessness in his heart, if he had retrieved the body in the first place, it would not have been like this. Nowadays, the M-SEEN is not very sensitive, he swipes across the screen and clicks on the pixels that appear to be icons. The picture of the machine went black and brightened, and it was clear that it had been very traumatized.
"Don't get your hopes up," Ruby said back to the same heavy tone he had when they first met.
Jiang Ke's low air pressure made Jaime feel that the air was about to freeze, and he, the most optimistic of the three, also felt overwhelmed at the moment, "What do you say!" KeοΌ It's okay to snort! β
"That monster is my friend," Jiang Ke whispered.
The atmosphere was even darker......
Hiss...... A distorted picture appeared on the M-SEEN, and the voice was choppy and choppy, "TODAY...... It's May 8, 2057, and our battle with the Slots continues...... According to the information gathered, the Slots used biological and chemical weapons......"
Before opening the video, Jiang Ke was mentally prepared, he thought that he would see Li Jie and Ding Ning, but he never expected that it was Wan Liang who left these video diaries - the captain of their action team. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly. The captain's combat statistics in the Military Bureau, whether it is combat effectiveness, willpower or tactics, etc., are S-level existences, and he is the top member of their team.
"On May 10, 2057, we arrived at Fairbanks."
"On May 19, 2057, the city was a mess, full of Slotan pollutants, dead people everywhere, and there was no way to stay here."
"On May 21, 2057, I heard that the nuclear ...... Exploded, fortunately we are not a point of attack here. β
"On May 25, 2057, the situation deteriorated and we retreated to Anderson."
"On June 5, 2057, biochemical pollution ...... The infection has spread to the neighborhood, and the soldiers who went out on patrol today have mysteriously disappeared, and the base has begun to be closed to entry and exit, and all personnel have taken refuge in the house. β
"Today is June 24, 2057, and it has been 30 days since we withdrew with the US military...... As a result of the nuclear explosion, we still haven't found a way to return home...... Food and water are quite sufficient, I don't know what the situation is in the motherland. β
"On July 2, 2057, the base received a group of civilians today, who were placed in Building 3." In the picture, the captain is standing in front of Building 2, and not far behind him is Building 3.
"Wow...... Someone is crazy. β
The video continues, but it's clearly incomplete.
"The effects of a nuclear explosion...... It seems that the problem of biochemical contamination has been solved. The more the video was played, the more intervals there were, and Jiang Ke could only guess the captain's meaning through his general feelings.
"We were ...... Attack, the situation is uncontrollable...... Decided to leave ......"
In the next video, the captain is already in the room in Building 3, surrounded by a large amount of black pollutants. ββ¦β¦ New...... of Faith...... Accept... Creation... Gift...... Crazy......" Jiang Ke frowned, what does this mean, there are too many missing content in the middle.
"I can't leave, MLGB's ...... Creation ......" The voice became more and more unclear, Jiang Ke reluctantly looked at the captain's mouth, his face was no longer like a normal human at this time, and his head was shaking unnaturally when he spoke, obviously his mental state was a little unstable.
This is the end of the video, and M-SEEN seems to be unable to hold on any longer, the screen goes black and there is no sound at all.
