Chapter 60: The Red Queen's Trap
As the troops continued to advance, a number of glass-enclosed offices and small research rooms appeared in front of everyone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhao Feng, who was walking behind, took a closer look and found that it was filled with clear water, and there were scattered corpses of researchers floating in it, which looked gloomy and terrifying.
"These people are really unlucky!"
Zhao Feng looked at the miserable white corpses and couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Zhang Ziming walked over. He patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Later, if you are chased by them, you won't have this leisure." ”
"yes...... Perhaps! Zhao Feng shrugged and looked away.
At the same time, there was a "terrible" exclamation from there, and the mercenaries had discovered that the road ahead was completely blocked by the current.
Zhao Feng and the others took a closer look, only to see Matthew frowning and saying, "It seems that it is impossible to go to the Flame Empress from this way!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at the two people in front of him, "Okay, Wren, Jedi, you go around the lab and see if you can drain this wastewater and open the way to the central computer lab." ”
"Yes, Captain!" The two nodded, holding their pistols cautiously forward, and slowly walked into the depths of the passage ahead.
After they left, Zhang Ziming suddenly stepped forward and said, "What's going on?" How is it filled with water!? “
He gestured to the small labs where bodies were floating.
"It was an accident!" Matthew replied, "About five hours ago, the Flame Empress suddenly sealed off the entire hive, using the internal defense system, releasing poison gas, cutting off electricity, blocking exits, and killing all the researchers!" When the company realized about it, we were sent. ”
"And your purpose?" As if to determine something, Zhang Ziming suddenly asked.
Matthew gave him a casual look, thought for a moment, and said, "We were sent here to shut down the Flame Empress and bring it back to the company's headquarters. ”
Speaking of this, Matthew showed a faint trace of sadness, as he continued to move forward, the ominous feeling of this task for him became stronger and more dangerous.
This melancholy was quickly caught by Alice, who had become more and more perceptive. She was very surprised, and said again and again, "Are you ...... Why do you ...... So why did the Flame Empress do this? Isn't it the top intelligent system in China? ”
However, in the end, she still didn't say much, after all, they just met in Pingshui, and there were some things that she didn't want to ask.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the inside of the glass next to them, and Matteden, who was close, hurriedly retreated in fright.
"What's wrong? Matt! ”
Alice glanced at Matt with concern, and looked closer to the dark shadow, which was nothing more than a female corpse floating in the water.
"Captain, this floor has been completely submerged, and the front is completely blocked!"
At this time, Jedi, who had been investigating earlier, returned.
Matthew looked at him and asked, "Do you find any other passages?" “
Jedi shook his head and said, "Captain, I didn't find out!" ”
"That's it!"
Matthew was about to sigh; At this time, Kaplan suddenly walked up and said, "Captain, there seems to be a road to the central computer room in Cafeteria B, but it will take us twice as long. ”
"Alright, let's go the second way!" Matthew nodded, and then said, "Now we don't have much time left, everyone hurry up, and try to recover the main board of the Flame Empress and complete the mission before the follow-up troops arrive!" ”
"Yes, Captain!" Everyone said in unison, making Zhao Feng and the three of them look sideways.
Then the group continued on and appeared in a hall filled with small freezers.
When everyone looked closer to the freezers, they found that they were all green-lit, about a few square meters in size, and placed all over the hall, and there was a cold sense of danger.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but take a step back in fright, he knew that what was refrigerated inside was a killing weapon crawler in the dormant period.
Once they are released, they will have no chance of survival, even if they have fought for the lives of everyone here.
"Captain, this is Cafeteria B!" Kaplan said as he looked at the computer in his arm, the map displayed on it.
"Where do we go next?" Matthew walked up behind Kaplan and looked at the map displayed on his arm computer.
Kaplan pointed to the computer screen for a bit, then slid to another point and said, "Captain, there's a passage here that goes straight inside, but you need an ID card with the appropriate permissions!" ”
"Can you crack it?" Matthew asked. Those researchers are dead in the research room, and they are still soaked in water and smelly, how can he have the permission to pass there and the corresponding ID card.
"Yes, Captain!" Kaplan replied confidently, because in order to ensure the smooth execution of the mission, the umbrella specially gave them a copy of the database here before they sent it. Although this database is somewhat mutilated due to the concealment of the umbrella, it is completely enough to use it to open a lifeless door to death.
Matthew nodded and said, "Very well, Kaplan, so be it!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at the other mercenaries and said, "Jedi, Wren, you go and see if there are any survivors here, but don't go too far, we will continue to move forward later, so as not to get separated." ”
"Yes, Captain!" The two nodded, and then split up, one left and one right, and scattered in diametrically opposite directions.
Soon after they had left, and no one was gone, Matthew looked back at the remaining mercenaries and ordered, "Alright, let's continue, and the rest of the men will come with me!" ”
And he took them with them and departed from here.
Passing through several steel gates, the group soon came to the outside of the last passage leading to the hive, the central computer room. However, because of the blockade of the Flame Empress, a steel gate was closed to death, blocking everyone's way.
"Captain, let me come!"
Seeing that it was as shown on the map, Kaplan stood up and said.
Matthew waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, Kaplan!" ”
Then Kaplan took out a laptop, removed the numeric keypad near the ID card in front of the door and entered the password, and pulled out a few data cables from it to connect with the computer.
After doing all this, Kaplan turned on his laptop and tried to adjust it, and his fingers kept flying, and he pressed the keyboard intently.
"Crackling ......"
With a quick tap on the keyboard, the characters on the screen swipe down like a waterfall, which looks very powerful. But Zhao Feng and the others didn't have much confidence in this, after all, in the movie, it was because Kaplan accidentally fell into the trap of the Flame Empress and killed several mercenaries including Matthew!
However, they didn't stupidly remind them, although in infinite stream novels, all the protagonists have to intervene.
But when they actually face death, they realize that they don't want to take any risks from head to toe, even though they know that saving the mercenaries will give them a better chance of getting out of the hive.
