The members of the Dark Thorn Squad who felt the strangeness immediately stopped their voices and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

Under the illumination of Mao Jiarui's flashlight, several strange creatures slowly crawled out of the dense pile of eggs in the distance.

These creatures are gray in color, with long strips of body covered in a rough carapace and densely packed arthropod-like feet underneath, some of which at first glance look like enlarged millipedes.

The beam of the flashlight hit the creature's body, but it didn't cause much of a reaction, and it didn't seem to be sensitive to changes in light and shadow.

"What's that? What happens after the eggs hatch? ”

Seeing that the creature irradiated by the flashlight beam had no intention of rushing over to attack, Mao Jiarui asked in a bold whisper.

But at the moment when he spoke, the creatures turned their heads in unison, and the four tentacles at the top of their heads kept trembling, as if sensing the presence of several people.

"No, they are the No. 42 mutant creatures formed after Ma Lu was infected with the secondary virus, and they have formed a symbiotic relationship with the shield claw."

Wang Jue spoke indifferently, his eyes did not look into the distance like the Dark Thorn Squad, and he was still concentrating on the insect eggs in front of him.

Although the identity of the strange creature was learned, this did not provide much psychological comfort to the members of the Assassin Squad.

"It seems to be attracted to the sound, so let's be careful and try to be as quiet as possible."

Wu Qi whispered that he knew that many mutated creatures had been cultivated within the organization, but this was the first time he had actually seen a living one.

Mao Jiarui nodded when he heard this, thought for a moment, and replaced the weapon in his hand with a pistol.

Although Creature 42 is covered in a rough carapace, it doesn't look like it has a lot of speed when it crawls, and in the event of an accident, a weapon of close quarters destruction such as a pistol can be very useful.

The few people who couldn't shout loudly had to struggle between the eggs, and they had to search the egg-breeding area to see if they could find any trace of Yang Xiu.

In order to avoid stepping on the broken insect eggs and causing a series of unnecessary troubles, Yin Jian and the others all adopted the way of walking with the soles of their feet on the ground, although the speed of walking in this way will be much slower, but it is relatively much safer.

However, before a few people could go deeper, Yin Jian, who was walking in the front, felt a strange appearance coming from under his feet.

The soles of his feet that are close to the ground seem to have kicked something soft.

At first, Yin Jian thought it was an insect egg squeezed together, and he used a little force under his feet, trying to squeeze it away with his toes.

But as his strength increased, the touch from his toes became less and less like insect eggs, but more like leather and fabric.

"Maozi, look at what's down here?"

beckoned Mao Jiarui, Yin Jian pointed to the position under his left foot, and motioned for the other party to take care of it with a flashlight.

It's okay if you don't take care of it, until you see what is under your feet clearly, the hairs on everyone's bodies stand up unconsciously.

What was touched by Yin Thorn's toe was a worm egg, and it was clearly a human arm!

And this is not only an arm, although most of its connected body is covered by insect eggs, some clues can still be glimpsed through the gaps.

Judging by the fragments of white clothing remaining on its surface, the owner of the corpse was supposed to have been engaged in medical or research-related work during his lifetime.

"Is this a researcher in the organization?"

Although the sight of the corpse made Yin Jian's heart feel a little uncomfortable, after all, he was a mercenary who had experienced the battlefield, and he still stabilized his mind at the first time and quickly collected the information presented on his corpse.

"Looks like yes, I've seen the pieces of clothing on this corpse, and it's the most common costume worn by researchers at the research station."

Mao Jiarui squatted down with a flashlight, put the gun in his right hand under his armpit, and carefully took one

Pieces of cloth on corpses.

Through the mask of the gas mask, the Assassin Team could clearly see the remaining letters on the fabric.

Although there are only a few letters in the first few letters, a few people can still easily spell them all.

transcy, which translates to Chinese means excellence and transcendence, and what it refers to behind it is naturally the T organization that subverts the entire world.

"This is the situation caused by the loss of control of mutant organisms......"

Yin Jian watched Mao Jiarui observe the fragments of clothes, and added with palpitations.

The voices of several people communicating were very soft, but they were still sensed by mutant creature 42 in the distance.

The tentacles on the top of their heads twitched as they resembled giant horses, and countless arthropod-like feet surged beneath them, like a slow-moving train, crawling in the direction of the Darkthorn Squad.

As soon as the stabbing team stops speaking, these insects will freeze in place as if they have lost their positioning signal, and once they speak, no matter how light the voice is, they will always be sensed by the other party.

"Looks like this place can't stay long."

Wu Qi added, except for a brief stay on the corpse, his gaze barely left the 42nd mutant creature in the distance.

Although the crawling speed of those things is not fast, in this limited space, if a few people do not leave, they will eventually run into each other.

Wang Jue had previously mentioned that as long as the body was sprayed with an isolatant, these mutated creatures should not attack.

But if this C+-level personnel misjudges, then the life of the Assassin Team will have to be explained here.

Although these teams have a lot of trust in the information given by the organization, trust does not mean that they do not leave a way out, and if possible, anyone will pursue the safest path to solve the problem.

After figuring out the current situation, the search of the assassins began to tighten, rummaging through the sea of insect eggs with their hands and feet, trying to find anything related to Yang Xiu.

But until the mutant creatures of No. 42 crawled in front of them, the three of them still didn't get anything, except for the disgusting mucus on their gloves, they didn't find any trace of Yang Xiu at all.

"The sheep scorpion is not here!"

Yin Jian said hatefully, because he didn't control his emotions, his voice was a little loud.

The giant Ma Lu, who was closest to him, immediately caught the man's voice, and the tentacles above his head suddenly deflected, and he quickly crawled towards the location where Yin Thorn was.

And Yin Jian also discovered this change at the first time, but he did not attack, but put his hands on guard, put the steel knife horizontally in front of him, and put on a defensive posture.

In this way, the giant Ma Lu quickly climbed up Yin Thorn's body along the undulating insect eggs stacked on the ground.

The dense arthropod-like feet beat on the man's body, like sharp steel needles, thanks to Yin Thorn wearing protective clothing, so he was not seriously injured.

Crawling around the man, the giant Ma Lu did not catch any breath about the prey, and the antennae on the top of his head swayed a few times, and then crawled lazily to the ground.

Yin Jian, who breathed a sigh of relief, saw that Ma Lu had crawled away, and he no longer stayed in place, and his feet moved again and again, and he withdrew from the depths of the egg breeding area.

Wang Jue was still waiting at the entrance of the egg-breeding area, and when he saw that the three members of the Dark Thorn Team had returned in vain, they looked dejected, raised their gray-white eyebrows, and spoke.

"What? Your teammates aren't here? ”

"No shadow of Yang Xiu was found, most of the corpses on the ground have decomposed, and there is no sign of Yang Xiu on the rest of the body, so it shouldn't be here."

Yin Jian replied truthfully, it stands to reason that in the face of a C+-level member, his attitude should be more respectful.

But now Yang Xiu can't be found, which makes this man feel numb,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I can't care about the issue of attitude for a while.

"Since I'm not here, I'm in the growth zone, and now this point in time has passed, and it's not good......"

Getting up from the ground with some difficulty, Wang Jue rubbed his hand on his clothes a few times, and then began to massage his temples.

It seems that because of the long squatting position, her blood supply cannot be supplied for a while, and she needs to slow down to get used to it.

"What's wrong with the growth zone, what's wrong at this point in time?"

Hearing Wang Jue's words, Yin Jian subconsciously glanced at the watch on his wrist.

The beating numbers above show that the time is now half past three in the middle of the night.

"It's three or four o'clock, the losers in the growth area should be waking up, I asked you to speed up a little bit before, in order to catch up with them before they wake up, but now it looks like time is running out......"

When he said this, the ease on Wang Jue's face had disappeared, and it was replaced by a serious expression.

It is not difficult to see that the "failed product" will also cause a certain degree of distress to her after she wakes up.

"Wake up? What do those failures do when they wake up? ”

Although Yin Jian could feel the jealousy in Wang Jue's words, the other party did not reveal the key information, and under the combined effect of curiosity and worry, the man continued to ask.

"What is the first thing you do when you wake up after a night's sleep?"

Wang Jue did not answer directly, but instead asked a seemingly unrelated question.

"When I woke up, I was looking for something to eat...... After a night's sleep, I must have been hungry......"

Mao Jiarui also withdrew from the rear at this time, and when he heard Wang Jue's question, he replied as a matter of course.

"That's right, looking for food, then those failures, the first thing they do when they get up is naturally to find food."

"Could it be that Yang Xiu will become their food?"

Yin Jian had already come back to his senses at this moment, and his already restless heart was suddenly suspended.

When he said this possibility, the scene of Yang Xiu being dismembered by various insects came to his mind.

"It's close, but it's not a standard answer."

Wang Jue stretched out a finger and waved it in front of Yin Jian.

"Do you remember what I just mentioned to you, ninety percent of the eggs laid by the shield claw are failures, and although the failures are not as good as non-threatening lifeforms, they have a special ability, and that is 'pollution'!"

"They can parasitize human corpses, reinventing them into free-roaming creatures in a manner similar to that of pupa butterflies, and the time of parasitism is usually between 3 and 4 o'clock in the middle of the night."

"The corpse parasitized by the failed product...... Well, I prefer to call it a contaminated corpse, because after the metamorphosis is completed, there is no failure in the body, in other words, the failure has completely fused with the corpse. ”

"These contaminated corpses are otherwise indistinguishable from normal humans, with the only characteristic being that they are slightly more powerful, and they are mentally retarded, unable to communicate, and will only repeat a sentence over and over again......"

Wang Jue babbled, her narration was not coherent, it was completely like she would say wherever she wanted.

"Lord Wang Jue, if things are really as you said, we should hurry up, if we go late, Yang Xiu will be polluted......"

Yin Jian interrupted Wang Jue with a loud voice, now is not the time for popular science, you must know that Yang Xiu is still in danger, one more second, the possibility of the other party's death will increase by one point.

"Alas, didn't I tell you, it's too late to rush over now, between three and four o'clock, it's the time for those failed products to wake up, and you won't be able to save your teammates if you rush over, but there is also a risk of being polluted......"
