Chapter 385: Waters
Moments later, outside the main base, six people gathered again.
At this time, it was only a short 2 hours since they had encountered the Big-Headed Dragon in that hall and killed it dangerously, and they were now about to carry out the mission issued by General Baker.
There is no way, this base is in dire need of resources, they are coming at a very urgent crisis, in order for everyone to survive, everyone is playing their role to the fullest. Even General Baker is the same, despite the fact that he always stays close to the base, in fact, many things are done by himself, risking his life.
A silent corridor where they walked between the walls that were constantly glowing with faint electric sparks, where visibility was relatively low, and a light green mist shrouded the surroundings, making it look like a scene from Resident Evil.
All of Team 1419 didn't speak, they walked silently in the silent tunnel, their footsteps echoing around them, sounding a little stumbling.
They walked like this until they came to a row of stairs about ten stories long, but looking down there was a large translucent body of water.
There should be a large experimental area underneath this, but at the moment it is covered with water, and there is pale green water everywhere, which looks dirty and disgusting, like the kind of fish pond that has not lived for a long time.
However, this is not the point, no matter how dirty it is, it is nothing to the military. What really made Ike stop and observe was the looming things in the waters.
There's something. There is a constant surge and float in a piece of water, and they are densely packed and almost everywhere. Sometimes he suddenly jumps out of the water. Then it quickly fell into the water, leaving only an afterimage to be seen.
"What the hell are these things?" Ovsky saw the mess in front of him, and even the big ones frowned.
It was a water they had to cross, and it was so full of this hair-wrenching unknown substance that they had to stop and watch before they could be sure if it was safe.
"It's a small squid-like creature." Ike stared at the water and said with a determined expression. And his pupils reflected a foul green, "I see it." ”
Ike has dynamic vision and can clearly see what is rising from the water. This is a type of squid. Roughly half a human in size, their basic body structure is indistinguishable from that of a normal squid, though the difference is that they have antennae on their heads. And there are sharp barbs hanging in many places on the body.
"Squid?" Zhen Wuyu also looked at the water surface intently. I could only see that there were many swimming objects in the nearby water, that is, the submerged half of the staircase, and from their rough outline, they were indeed similar to squid.
Since these squid are likely mutated creatures and are extremely dangerous, Ike asked General Baker about the matter.
"Well, it's amazing, we don't even know where all this water comes from." General Baker responded. "As for the planktonic squid, they attack from a distance. So be careful. ”
"Ranged attack?"
"Yes, their tentacles can excite bioelectric currents and release them in the form of pulse bombs, which of course have low energy and can only paralyze the human body. But when the planktonic squid reaches a certain number, their attacks will be very deadly, with murderous powers, so you must be careful. 'Ship Crusher', you can try to clear the field with the energy weapon you just bought. ”
"Understood."
Ike immediately understood what Baker meant, and he immediately took out a brown gun about a meter long from his space backpack. The body of the gun is slightly thicker, and the muzzle tube diameter is also large, which looks like a shotgun, but this gun is equipped with a scope, a sniper scope.
The GP53 laser rifle is a standard infantry weapon with a high degree of accuracy and is very practical for hitting targets with precision.
The gun was so powerful that Ike gave it all the coins they had in store to deal with the Big-Headed Dragon, but it wasn't enough until he sold a GM.Slibert.DM5 shotgun.
And at such a high price, what is the performance and power of this weapon, Ike can't help but look forward to it.
"Is this going to test the gun?" Seeing Ike pick up the laser rifle, Zhen Wuyu and the others couldn't help but look at the mutated squid hidden in the nearby waters.
"Woohoo"
With an explosive sound, a thick red light shot out from the muzzle of the gun, reaching the surface of the water in an instant, and after penetrating the water, it directly hit a squid that seemed to be stationary.
The entire surface of the water exploded like cold water dripping into the boiling oil layer, and a large splash splashed around, and Ike instinctively stepped back.
Their eyes never left the water, only to see the red light spread in the water, and this time it shattered the bodies of more than ten squid. The surface of the water began to glow a darker dark green, which seemed to be the blood of a squid, and in addition to this, Ike saw some flocculent debris that looked very much like toilet paper that had not been rinsed, when in fact these were just the broken corpses of the squid.
"This gun is not bad." Ike had a satisfied look on his face, although the GP53 was not as good as the SVD-EX48, but if it was used to smash the Big-Headed Dragon, there should be no problem.
"Oh, this is alien technology, and now it seems that it is not much worse than the current humans." Zhen Wuyu stood beside him expressionlessly and made an evaluation, but the words he said made Ovsky and the others a little embarrassed.
Speaking in such a narration tone, you are neither an alien nor a human being?
At this time, the water boiled again, and a large group of squid in the vicinity suffered a sudden attack, and suddenly a stone stirred up a thousand waves, causing many squid around to rush one after another. They swam hoarsely and attacked in an instant.
With the sound of what seemed to be a wild beast moaning*, dozens of bright lights suddenly emerged from everywhere. And immediately in the direction where they were.
It was a very bright light, piercing through a dark pale green water surface and haze, like the light of dawn after dawn, shooting straight towards Ike and them.
"Get out of the way!" Ike told everyone to retreat, and just as they dodged, a pulse bullet of dozens of squid smashed down on the top of the stairs.
The "Snap" staircase was destroyed by the huge force field caused by the conversion of electrical energy, but where Ike was standing just now. Even a meter above the surface of the water, it was not affected in any way.
"Oh, it turned out to be a false alarm. I thought my life would be in danger. Seeing such a scene, Ovsky pouted slightly, "After all, it's just a biological pulse bomb!" ”
This impurity water has a strong electrical conductivity and is much more efficient than airborne electricity. Therefore, the pulses caused by electrical energy can be easily propagated in this area. But once out of the water. When it comes into contact with air, which is a bad conductor of electricity, it is difficult to spread.
Human impulse weapons are specially processed by the domain field, so they can easily spread in the air, while the pulse bombs excited by living beings are not.
"That's good, we'll be on the shore and kill these squid who are blocking the way." Ike said as he picked up the gun again, holding the GP53 and pulling the trigger again and again, and shooting out with a burst of red light. The entire body of water has been largely cleared of squid.
And after doing all this, 6 people are ready to enter the water.
"Be careful. There may also be some remnants of squid. Ike admonished everyone with a solemn face, and he was the first to jump into the water.
Although the water is translucent, it is impossible to see what is inside under the current relatively dark conditions. If you shine with a light, it's even more blurry, so they have to be careful of this floating squid.
It's not that they're afraid of their long-range pulse projectiles, but in this kind of water, visibility is very low, so be careful of being inexplicably close to such things. Ike had noticed that the squid's bodies were covered with very sharp barbs, and if this dense thing were pierced into a person's body, it would be much worse than being slashed by the waist of the scythe dragon.
The six of them carefully paced in the water, and although it was full of squid, the water was not very high, just enough to submerge their bellies.
They made their way towards the looming doorway, but they encountered no danger along the way, but as they approached the door, something happened suddenly.
"Ah~" Wang Qi suddenly let out a miserable scream, he instinctively raised the shotgun in his hand and continuously pulled the trigger in a certain direction.
"Click" "Click" "Click" With the sound of shotgun fire one after another, the monster let out a "woo" scream, and its body exploded.
Wang Qi, who was seriously injured in both legs, also fell into the water.
"Wang Qi!" Vasily immediately hugged him and helped him up, with a look of extreme concern on his face.
"How are you feeling" Everyone stopped, and Ike asked as he looked at the injured Wang Qi.
"Legs, my legs ......" Wang Qi was originally very rational and calm, but at this moment, his face was pale, and he looked like he would die at any time.
"Come and see, Vasily." Signaling the others to be on guard, Ike asked Vasily to put on the hood of the individual armor he was wearing, and Vasily buried his head in the water.
The water surface is a bit unclear, so you need to bury your head in it to see, but considering that the water can cause serious damage to some key parts such as the eyes or eardrums, you need to wear a head cover with individual armor.
Vasily buried his head in the water, and he immediately rescued Wang Qi's legs, which had been pierced by dense needle punctures, and a large amount of scarlet blood flowed out of the wound, but it had no effect on the green water surface.
These barbs were all grown on the body of the floating squid, and they looked hairy. Luckily, the ends of the squid grow together very tightly, and even if the squid's body is broken, it doesn't spread it apart, so just pull it out.
Vasily immediately stretched out his hands and forcefully pulled out the dense roots of the barbs.
And with his movements, Wang Qi's screams suddenly came out again, and Vasily was very distressed when he heard it.
Wang Qi's legs, at this time, blood continued to splash around like a fountain, his legs trembled violently and spasmed, if it wasn't for Mosinna's help, it is estimated that he would have fallen into the water. (To be continued......)
