Chapter 012: Seeing the Light of Day Again
Rebecca felt much more relieved to see the monster fall to the ground, but she immediately noticed the solemn expression on Lance's face.
"What's wrong?"
"Look around, it's not good, those leeches are moving above the platform."
Slightly stunned, she looked around and found that it was really the case, the single leeches on the ground, ceiling, and walls were all wriggling and drifting.
"This ...... What's going on? ”
Thinking of the endless Resident Evil in this world in the next twenty years, and looking at her with sympathetic eyes, Lance decided to spoil!
"Let's talk ......as we walk," he said, grabbing Rebecca's arm and moving towards the exit, "Don't be surprised, it's normal, it's a hallmark of Ambrera." ”
"Ambrera Specialty!?"
"That's right! Ambrera - A biochemical weapon produced by their company, all high-level types are good at stalking.
So when you encounter similar horror monsters in the future, remember that it's not enough to simply fight, it's best to burn them all if you can; Otherwise they will come back to life again and again, evolve again and again, and keep appearing in front of you.
Let's take the leech queen just now, if we don't run away, I guess it will soon reunite and become bigger than just now! ”
"......, it's really disgusting."
As they spoke, the two of them arrived at their destination, which could lead directly to the external lifting platform, connected to the track that was 30 degrees upward, and extended to a very far place.
They climbed over the low grid and landed on the platform, and Lance immediately flipped the start switch.
At this moment, he prayed sincerely that there would be no fault, because he suddenly remembered another characteristic of Ambrera
"—quack... "Luckily, the elevator that had fallen into disrepair shook slightly to the sound ......of the machine grinding and groaning, and then began to rumble up the long road.
Seeing that the escape was going well, the young man sat down cross-legged and let out a long breath.
Puzzled by his demeanor, the girl walked up to him and squatted down to care, "You seemed to be nervous just now, is there something else?" The Leech Queen shouldn't be that fast—"
"- Woo - Woo Woo - Woo Woo!"
Suddenly, the alarm beeps from the public address system, and the entire tunnel lights up in red.
"Warning! Warn! The self-destruct system has been activated, unlocked and unlocked all doors, and all personnel are requested to evacuate immediately. ”
"Repeat!"
"Warning! Warn! The self-destruct system has been activated, unlocked and unlocked all doors, and all personnel are requested to evacuate immediately. ”
Rebecca pursed her mouth, "It's really fake, it's a joke!" How could anyone install such a thing as a self-destruct system? ”
"No...... It's absolutely true," Lance's face was full of frustration, "that's another of Ambrera's specialties – every secret base must have a self-detonation device.
And their self-detonation is not an ordinary self-detonation, it is a very powerful kind of explosion, ensuring that nothing will be left of the explosion. ”
"Excuse me! So who started the self-destruct system? Rebecca stomped her foot anxiously.
Silent, Lance had no answer to her question, just stood up and stretched.
Such an ominous omen is almost a clear indication that their escape will not be easy......
As it turned out, slowly ascended some more distance.
"Boom!" The lifting platform shook suddenly.
Looking down the tunnel, you can see a black mass that has smashed through the wall and kicked up a cloud of rubble and smoke.
The leech queen who has undergone a second evolution is no longer humanoid, and her volume and weight have expanded several times, turning into a four-legged beast shaped by countless leeches; What hasn't changed are the bulging and quivering sarcomas on the surface, and the jagged mouths dripping with sticky slurry.
Stand in awe.
This thing can't fight without heavy weapons......
The girl bit her upper lip, not wanting to admit the reality, "What the hell is that?" ”
"Undoubtedly, it's the leech queen." Lance confirmed in a dull voice.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, which is the case.
The platform was still slowly climbing at an even speed, but the leech queen was as crazy as if she had seen a murderer's father's enemy, and she rushed towards her.
Looking at the momentum of its charge, Rebecca's face turned pale, "Can't this lifting platform be faster?" ”
Patting the girl on the shoulder, Lance showed her the light at the end of the tunnel, "The exit is there!" Give up now, and life is over. Rebecca, we're going to have to delay it as long as we can. ”
After saying that, he turned around first, picked up his automatic rifle, and aimed at the leech queen.
Embracing hope, she suddenly plucked up her courage and pulled the trigger.
"Dada-
"Bang Long! Bang Long! Bang Long! Bang Long! ”
"- Woo - Woo Woo - Woo Woo!"
"Warning! Warn! The self-destruct system has been activated, unlocked and unlocked all doors, and all personnel are requested to evacuate immediately. ”
"Da Da Da - Warning! The self-destruct system has been activated - buzz woo - boom! Bang bang - da! ”
The chaotic quartet vibrates the eardrums, echoing in the tunnel of red light flashing.
This unbearable ordeal culminates in the moment when the lifting platform stops, and a fifth remix joins in.
"Pound! - Boom!! ”
This is the sound of the leech queen hitting the bottom of the platform.
The lifting platform was directly knocked over!
And although Rebecca and Lance above wanted to jump out of the car, they were still a step slower, and they were bounced far away through the heavy steel plate, and then smashed to the ground.
"Smack!" Choked enough by the free fall, the two of them couldn't stand up for a while.
Feel the sun shining on your body, warm.
struggled to survive all night, but he didn't expect to fall short, fell on the last mile, and was crushed and swallowed by the leech queen.
"The sky is long, why is it ...... thin than me" left this last sentence, and Lance closed his eyes and waited for death.
However, more than ten seconds passed, but it was unharmed.
It wasn't until the young man got up that he found that the monster was still in the tunnel, roaring and demonstrating.
???
Yes! It turned out to be sunshine.
Whenever it tried to move forward, the exposed parts began to smoke, forcing it to retreat into the shadows.
Lance stared deeply at the monster.
Hehe! It's ironic that the Leech Queen pursued us for such a long distance, only to end up personally transporting us to safety—under the bright sun.
So, that's it......
This short distance of less than ten meters may be the trench and moat that you and me, life and death, cannot cross.
…… Good bye.
No, never again.
After expressing his emotion, Lance turned to find Rebecca, helped her up, and the two stumbled out.
Before it's time to relax, Ambrera's base is about to explode!
A minute later
The earth shook and the terrifying explosion suddenly drowned out all sounds, sweeping and destroying all buildings.
Looking down from the air, the entire small slope where the cadre cultivation stood was blown to the ground......
……
After some time.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem!"
In the midst of a cough, someone struggled to get up in the dust.
From crumbling to standing firm.
Lance, standing above the earth.
He touched his chest, faintly feeling a little stuffy, although he had tried to stay away as much as possible, but the result was still affected by the explosion......
Fortunately, I survived after all.
What about Rebecca!?
Thinking of his companion, Lance found that she was still lying on the ground unresponsive, and quickly squatted down to observe the other party's situation.
……。
She still had a breathing heartbeat and didn't need artificial respiration, but she was unconscious.
Lance did not study medicine and was not able to make a further diagnosis.
In desperation, he suddenly saw a gorgeous and exquisite mansion standing in the forest in the distance, and the Renaissance-style roof was shining in the sun.
