Chapter 13 Ability
When the shootout began, the slag clasped the door tightly, closing his eyes and listening carefully to the sounds outside. In case both sides throw grenades at each other indoors, he will also be able to react in time. At this moment, a shuttle of bullets hit the cabinet door, making a crisp sound of "dang dang dang", and a column of protrusions appeared on the inside of the cabinet door. Iron slag looked at the convex caused by the gunshot, and secretly pinched his sweat, but fortunately, the 9mm round-headed bullet of the submachine gun could not penetrate the iron door, otherwise it would be bad.
The fierce fighting in the room intensified, and people were killed every few seconds. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer companions around him, the mercenary captain shouted loudly: "Brothers, fight with them!" As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the safety bolt of the grenade and smashed it out. At the moment when he got up and threw the grenade, dozens of bullets were shot in the chest.
The mercenary captain stared at his chest with wide eyes, and fell backwards spitting blood.
With a loud "boom", the two Red Scorpion team members hiding in the aisle were blown to pieces by grenades, and blood and scraps of flesh hung all over the four walls.
"! Blow them up! With the roar of not knowing which side, the men on both sides took off their grenades one after another!
Tie Slag heard the sound of several grenades pulling rings in the gunshot, and immediately hugged You Ge and lay down in the Wen Jiàn cabinet. In the next second, in this not spacious room, an earth-shattering loud noise erupted. It was the result of several grenades exploding in succession, and at that moment, it was as if the entire chamber was shaking. The glassware on the test bench burst and shattered into countless glass shards that flew everywhere. At the same time, half of the lamps shattered under high pressure, and Wen Jiàn, who had been placed on the test bench, was torn to pieces and flew in mid-air. In the aftershocks, fine sand fell from the ceiling......
The powerful force of the explosion overturned countless objects, including the iron slag and the Wen Jiàn cabinet where You Ge was hiding. Dozens of seconds later, Iron Slag laboriously kicked open the cabinet door that had been severely deformed, and pulled You Ge to climb out.
In front of me was a picture of purgatory on earth, with broken torsos all over the ground, those stumps and broken arms scattered everywhere, flesh and organs spilled on various objects......
You Ge covered her mouth, and the smell of blood was as thick as substance, making her retch.
"Check carefully, make up for the one who didn't die." The iron slag is faint. Unaffected by the smell of blood, he pulled out his machete and began to examine the bloody corpses. It didn't take long for him to confirm that all the people in the room were dead.
"They are so stupid, using fragmentation grenades in an enclosed space......" You Ge immediately sighed as soon as he adapted to the environment.
"Hmm......" Iron Slag replied casually.
At this time, You Ge saw Iron Slag looking at a corpse in a daze. The corpse was the man whose palm had been crushed by iron slag in the bar last night, and the insect mutant who had just messed with the woman here.
"What's wrong?" You Ge found that Iron Slag's expression was very solemn, as if he was struggling in his thoughts. This was the first time she had seen such an expression of iron slag, and her heart tightened suddenly, what kind of thing was it? can make this ruthless trafficker so entangled.
"It's fine." Iron Slag came back to his senses, "There was one person missing, and I didn't see the woman's body." ”
You Ge looked around the room, then pulled out his pistol and pointed at a cabinet door under the test bench, and shouted loudly: "Beauty~ Come out, we won't hurt you." ”
After a while, there was not a trace of movement where You Ge was aiming. Iron Slag grinned, You Ge's reaction just now was beyond his expectations, with his extraordinary reaction and hearing, he didn't notice that there was anyone in the cabinet under the test bench, let alone this rookie.
"Come out!" You Ge shouted, and then kicked on the cabinet door.
"Don't ...... Don't shoot......" A faint voice came from the closet.
Iron Slag was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head to look at You Ge, as if he wanted to see something on her face. But apart from that fair and pretty face, he didn't see anything.
Ye Xinling trembled and crawled out of the cabinet, raised her hands and trembled, "I...... I'm not a bad person. ”
Iron Slag narrowed his eyes and glanced at You Ge, the meaning was very clear - "Kill!" ”
Ye Xinling's eyes caught the hint of iron slag, her feet softened, and she knelt down to the girl with her head down. She knew very well in her heart that the young man in front of her was a real demon and would never care about the weight of life. And the girl in front of her is obviously still a little immature. She turned her heart sideways, ignoring the girl's muzzle still pointed at her, threw herself forward and hugged the girl's feet and begged bitterly, "Please, don't kill me, I'm not a bad person, I won't be bad for you, I know a lot of things, I know what they are doing here......"
"Iron slag, she...... She also looks like a victim. You Ge couldn't help the woman's pleading, and was a little shaken.
"Let her go back and snitch?" Iron Slag asked.
"No, I won't tell you, I won't tell anyone, please, I won't......" Ye Xinling sobbed in a low voice.
"You believe her?" Iron Slag asked, staring into You Ge's eyes.
You Ge looked down at the woman who was silently weeping. She thought for a moment, and her frown suddenly relaxed. She put away her pistol and smiled at the iron slag, "You can do it." ”
Iron Slag looked at the woman, turned to look at the corpse of the worm-mutant again, and sighed, "You look at her." With that, Iron Slag picked up the corpse of the insect mutant and walked towards the passage leading to the safe in the real yàn room. Before closing the door, Iron Slag turned around and threatened, "You wait outside, and whoever comes in after a while, including you, will die, understand?" ”
The two women looked at the same time, and the cold and serious expression of the iron slag was really scary.
After closing the metal door, Iron Slag lowered the mutant's corpse. The corpse had been riddled with bullets, and had been blown up by a fragmentation grenade, and its whole body was blurred with flesh and blood, and its limbs were attached to a piece of flesh and skin. Iron Slag looked up, and at the end of the passage was the round steel door of the safe, which had opened outward. There were two corpses lying next to the iron gate, one of which was the man named Lin Tianhua who had seen him in the bar.
Iron Slag drew his machete and stepped forward to split the heads of the two corpses. He checked again and again, making sure that there were no living creatures in the passage or safe, and then returned to the mutant's corpse. I saw him stretch out his left hand and press it, and after a while, many bright red, tendril-like veins suddenly protruded from the wrist of his left hand. These veins emerged from the skin and burrowed into the corpse like living creatures along the palms of the hands. A few minutes later, hundreds of thin blood vessels crawled all over every part of the corpse. If someone stands by and watches at this time, it will definitely feel creepy.
Every vein burrowed into the flesh of the corpse like a living worm. Iron Slag's face was so pale that there was not a trace of blood, and his entire lips were pale. The cold sweat on his forehead kept dripping, and his body was a little shaky, as if he was so weak that he would fall down at any time.
This is Iron Slag's other identity in addition to the traditional evolutionary - an insect mutant with the ability to devour genes.
Iron Slag is a rare composite evolutionary who has both the ability to strengthen the body and the ability to transform into a mutant. People like him are called B1B composite evolutionists.
In general, evolutionaries in humans fall into three broad categories.
The first group, known as the -B (body) somatic evolutionists, is subdivided into traditional evolutionaries (B1) and insect mutants (B). Compared to ordinary people, the main changes in this type of evolutionary are in physical strength and body structure.
The second group, known as the e-(energy) psionic evolutionaries, possess a special biological energy. This energy can be materialized to form energy such as impulse, heat, electricity, etc. This kind of evolutionary ability is very useful in battle, and compared to the attack method like the spirit shockwave, it is not as real as a shot. So, when psionics first appeared, they were like a group of vases with special abilities that didn't have much value other than participating in scientific realizations and performing magic tricks. It wasn't until more than 100 years later, with the in-depth development of mechanical technology and the unremitting efforts of scientists, that a kind of equipment that can exert the talent of psionics was finally developed - psionic biochemical armor.
This semi-mechanical, half-biological armor is directly powered by psionic energy, and is lighter, faster, more powerful, and more complex than traditional mechanical armor. As a result, with the application of psionic biochemical armor, the psionics stepped onto the stage of history and became the main force of the army. Over the next hundred years, psionics with extraordinary combat power became the rulers of this world.
The Silver Cities scattered throughout the earth are dominated by psionics and humans with psionic blood.
The third category is called -s (soul) soul evolutionaries, also known as fate callers, matter perceivers, lucky stars, prophets, and soothsayers......
These are the most mysterious evolutionaries among the human race, and their abilities are almost invisible and intangible. They have the 'source force', they can sense the connections between all things, and they have the ability to perceive the future. This is one of the most mysterious powers, and it is rumored that those who possess the 'Source Power' are always able to avoid danger and achieve ultimate victory.
And people who possess two, or even three, of these evolutionary abilities at the same time are collectively referred to as compound evolutionaries.
Iron Slag is a rare compound evolutionary who has both B1 and B evolutionary abilities.
He, like all insect mutants, has one of the most basic abilities - gene devouring.
This ability allows the Bugified Mutant to replicate and learn from each other's abilities on other Worm Mutants. It is used by incorporating a fragment of the other person's mutated gene into one's own chromosomes to gain some of the other person's abilities. Of course, this part of the ability must be incomplete, because the human gene chain is extremely complex, and in order to avoid a fatal conflict between the new gene fragment and its own gene chain, it is generally only the mutated part of the genetic information. At the same time, such gene duplication is extremely dangerous.
The Narcissus Doctor accidentally discovered this secret while treating an iron slag wound. He told him that according to current academic research, the genetic devouring ability of the insect mutant can only be used two or three times at most, otherwise the overly complex gene chain will lead to the collapse of the body or the dementia of the brain.
Iron Slag didn't meet many insect mutants, and he didn't fancy the other party's abilities, so he never used 'gene devouring'. Just now he overheard the ability of this mutant in the Wen Jiàn cabinet. This is the ability to lay eggs inside the target's body and then control the target. For iron slag who doesn't trust anyone, this is a rare ability.
