Chapter 19: Procrastination
"Fuck!"
John's eyes were red.
His muscles trembled, and with almost all the strength he had in his life, it was difficult to pull Harry out of the tin skin.
This state of affairs is very weird.
The government has captured a small number of infected organisms and used them in experiments, and children with incomplete brains or adolescents who are in the middle of adolescence are very susceptible to visual memetic contamination and fall into a short-term, timely, and strange state that is difficult for science to explain.
In these states, their cerebral cortex is extremely active, but they are unable to respond to any external stimuli and have difficulty moving from the space they are in unless they use at least nine times the force.
But fortunately, the δ infected body had no intelligence at all, and when faced with its easy prey, it was actually enraged, and then turned directly to chase after George, who pierced into the darkness and passed by it.
Their plight finally caught the attention of the police and the military, and a squad of special forces slowly moved forward under the cover of mortars, tanks and helicopter gunships.
Among them, the Asian soldier, who appeared to be the commander of the operation, said loudly in English, "Are you all right, do you need help?!" ”
John took a document from his bosom and shook it in front of the soldier, whose eyes immediately turned respectful.
"I need you to evacuate all ordinary people at once, and confiscate all documenting tools of any media worker."
It seems that John's position in the government is not low, and he even has the power to directly influence martial law and combat operations at this level - presumably a role like the FBI?
His face was unusually grim, and the blood vessels in his wrist that no one could see seemed to faintly flash with a burning light.
He continued,
"Also, bring in a crane and take the boy and his toys intact."
"He's ......"
"Obey orders, corporal!"
"Yes, sir!"
At the same time, an exclamation suddenly sounded outside the cordon.
"Spider-Man!"
"Is that him? Is that him?! ”
"Spider-Man, I love you!"
“……”
……
"This ......"
"No, it's over here!"
"That's not right!"
Flushing is the area with the largest number of Asian Americans in New York, and most of them are Chinese.
The buildings here are low and cramped, and they resemble the new towns of some counties in China, surrounded by storefronts with Chinese plaques.
It's just that the residents of the neighborhood are gone.
Or dead.
Except for the sound of the wind blowing, everything was plunged into darkness in silence.
The mouths of the desperate believers were still uttering hoarse, penetrating and chaotic words, not roaring or roaring, just like some little boy in the school who was in the voice changer reciting English words, only intermittent and the gaps between words were no longer clear, mixed together.
Dressed in a raincoat and like a black wildcat, George deftly jumps from building to building, using obstacles to slow down the desperate believers.
He thought back to the information he had just seen about the anomaly, and thought that the system would not let him find out why it was the way it was for no reason.
Perhaps this is the key to breaking the game.
【Drop】
【Dididi】
【Drop】
【Boom la la ......】
The heavy dark clouds that had been sinking for a long time were finally no longer bearable, and suddenly it rained heavily that no one had expected.
The heavy rain fell on the bodies of the desperate believers, and in an instant, they were evaporated into white vapor by the high temperature, and those blazing lights were gradually extinguished.
George only felt more and more strained.
The rain has made desperate believers less hot.
But it also made its body gradually stabilize, and even the speed of the chase was two points faster.
The residential buildings in the vicinity are still intact, largely undamaged, and the curtains have been drawn.
They were probably evacuated after receiving an emergency notice not long ago.
The time for the Desperate Believer to appear is four o'clock in the morning.
The vast majority of people are sleeping, and if it wants to expand its flesh, it must break walls or tear windowsills, break into the homes of ordinary people, take off their heads, and eat their bodies.
And in the process, it will inevitably lead to the destruction and dislocation of the houses in the entire area.
Since the system gives a hint to him to find the reason for the appearance of the alien, it is natural to start from the source.
But Flushing is so huge, how can you find the area that has been destroyed by the desperate believers?
It was raining heavily in the sky again, and the traces of the rotting liquid it had left behind had been thoroughly washed away.
The smell of the fish was like jumping into a pool of soaked corpses, and the rain around him made George uncomfortable.
The physical improvement that the talented shepherd had brought him had reached the limit, and he couldn't run any faster.
[Smack! 【Smack! 【Smack! 】……
There was a huge splash of water with every step he took, and the rain curtained his shadow for a long time.
The voices of the desperate believers began to grow ecstatic.
There was a surging fear that eroded George's brain in an indescribable way.
But he could clearly feel that he wasn't so scared.
"It's almost ......"
"It's almost ......"
"Don't run ......"
"Merge with me......"
"Be a great ......"
……
The words in the mouth of the desperate believer gradually join into complete sentences, like a mad Hannibal, and the language is full of the desire for human flesh.
It's like an evil fanatic, performing some dark and crazy sacrifice.
Helicopters began to judge in the sky.
It was as if they had finally spotted the Desperate Cultist and the George it was chasing, two large, thick pillars of light following the steps of one man and one alien.
The raindrops reflected the light of the gas lamp, making George unable to open his eyes.
He caught a glimpse of a red figure echoing between the buildings on his left, following him along.
【Dada!! 】
……
The on-board machine guns of the two gunships fired a steel rain curtain in George's direction, actually cutting off the torrential rain above his head, and then pouring it into the body of the desperate believer.
Its body burst into bloody flowers.
Handfuls of maggots burst out.
And those wounds were quickly repaired by the flow of magma-red liquid.
George opened his mouth and shouted, "Don't shoot!" Bullets don't work against it! ”
The rain flowed down the corner of his mouth.
In this weather, the power of white phosphorus incendiary bombs will be greatly reduced, and the missiles will be less likely to be used in cities.
All of a sudden, the military was at a loss.
[Boom-]
Twisted together, the cobweb, which appeared thick and tough, shot from the left side.
Spider-Man improved his spider silk, which actually had a strong corrosive effect, and burned black scars when it landed on the body of the desperate believer.
Although the scar was quickly repaired.
He slightly blocked the Desperate Believer's pace and immediately followed George's side.
In contrast, swinging is indeed faster than Eleven.
Peter: "Hey, what are you going to do?!" ”
He could see that George was looking for something.
The huge gas lamp reflected the light off his blindfold.
George breathed a sigh of relief: "Help me stop this thing, maybe I can fix it!" ”
"A few minutes at most!"
Peter didn't hesitate at all, his body suddenly froze, and he actually met the desperate believers who weighed at least ten tons.
He chose to help George!
