I don't know when it began, more and more people really touched the threshold of life, instead of survival.

After listening to Major General Noyce's collective lecture, Sean got into his comrade's car and left the training base of Umbrella Security.

Four people in a dormitory on the bus were discussing the five-day vacation and the task that required a non-disclosure agreement.

"Sean, how about a drink at the bar tomorrow?"

Sean's teammates extended an invitation to him.

Sean, who was not focused on pleasure, decisively refused, "I finally went home, I have to accompany my family, so ...... Excuse me. ”

"It's great, we have a wife here, Boss Duncan said that the company will organize a party for internal employees, and I don't know if we have a chance to find a wife!"

The teammates also expressed their understanding and soon stopped talking about it.

The car drove up to the block that the Umbrella Company had built for the security guards.

Sean and his teammates are in the A1 area, where the houses are relatively large and where the security team members with families live.

It's the weekend, and the neighborhoods aren't as deserted as outside the city, and many people are heading out under the warm spring sun to breathe in the fresh air of the city.

Electric vehicles have a high penetration rate in Raccoon City, and there was an activity of exchanging oil cars for new energy vehicles before Christmas, and under the temptation of trade-in, coupled with the people's trust in the umbrella company, most of the people who have cars in the city have replaced new energy vehicles.

This initiative has made the air in the whole city a lot fresher.

When Sean was returning home, his neighbors in the neighborhood greeted him frequently.

His wife happened to be chatting with the neighbor's wife under the umbrella in the garden, and when she saw Sean return, she showed a surprised expression, said goodbye to the neighbor, and entered the house with him.

The work stations are relatively close, but as a member of the most heavily trained special operations unit, Sean spends most of his time in the training base.

It's rare to come back once, just like a newlywed baby.

After entering the sage mode, Sean remembered that he seemed to have a 7-year-old son, and turned his head to ask his wife next to him, "What about my son?" ”

The wife with a happy face stared at Sean with her eyes and said in a greasy voice, "What about playing with other children in the park...... It's nice to live here, no stress, no danger, with you. ”

Sean was stunned when he heard this, his gaze turned back to the ceiling, and Qingming's brain entered deep thinking.

He was afraid of death, and no one would not be afraid.

He knew well the words of General Noyce, and such mobilization speeches would exist on urgent missions, and he had heard them when he was on his trip to Iraq, and it was an experience that he did not want to look back on.

Now, he has left the army and joined the umbrella company, he has seen the changes of the umbrella company, and he has also enjoyed all the benefits given by the umbrella company.

But he was afraid, afraid that he would die, afraid that his wife would remarry, afraid that the man would bully his son.

I am afraid of this, I am afraid of that, and I am most afraid that I will not be able to see the infinite bright future after I die.

Foreseeable, unforeseeable, brilliant technology, astronautics, solo flight, deep-sea exploration, and holographic virtual reality games that you just came into contact with!

"Hey......" Sean sighed heavily, reached into the quilt with his right hand and kneaded it, and said before his wife wrapped it up, "There is a long-term mission in five days, and I may not be able to come back for a long time." ”

The wife was doused with the flames in her body by these words, propped up her upper body and asked hesitantly, "How long are you leaving?" ”

"I don't know."

"Is it dangerous?"

"I don't know ......"

"Can you tell me what the mission is?"

Sean still had only one answer: "I... I don't know ......."

The wife lay back on the bed in a daze, looked at the man's side face, stretched out her hand and stroked: "Well, you must pay attention to safety, there are still people waiting for you at home, Peter often shows off his father in school that he is a hero, and heroes will not fall, right?" ”

"Let's go out to dinner together, it may be too late and there may be no place."

A pensive Sean got out of bed, glanced at a photo of a family of three on his phone, clenched his fists heavily, and walked to the bathroom.

……

With the five-day vacation fast approaching, Sean and his teammates returned to the training base and were immediately scheduled to pack their bags and board the plane to Delta Research Base in the early morning mist.

The soldiers sitting on the plane were extremely silent, because this kind of drama of taking a holiday before departure was the same as a farewell ceremony, no wonder they didn't think much about it.

Sean looked at the clouds passing by the window and nervously squeezed his backpack.

The Delta Research site is not far from Raccoon City, and the take-off to landing process takes less than an hour.

Before the butts were hot in their seats, they arrived at their destination.

At the officer's greeting, Sean got up from his chair and stepped off the plane in an orderly manner.

"Queue !!" Major General Noyce was already waiting next to the plane, and after the soldiers rushed down, he roared loudly and with great momentum.

After a few days of not seeing each other, the soldiers felt as if the gray-haired veteran had regained his vitality and was in a lot of energy.

After the soldiers lined up, they walked in formation to the makeshift white tent on the side.

Those who have entered the white tent will leave after two minutes, running towards the exit of the airport with their backpacks on their backs, with somewhat awkward expressions.

Two hundred people, two minutes each, and the time spent is not small.

By the time it was Sean's turn, it was already dark.

"Name?"

"Shaun Bright"

Sean reported his name.

Wearing a white lab coat, he retrieved it on the computer for a moment, and then let Sean enter the injection room.

In the injection room, the two big men had already prepared two needles, lifted Sean's two sleeves, omitted even the disinfection step, and directly pushed the green liquid in the thick needle into his body.

"Shhh Sean gasped, and his arms hurt as if they had been gnawed by a dog.

After the needle, the two big men waved his hand to signal that he could leave.

Walking to the exit of the tent, Sean was told by Major General Noyce to run at full speed to the exit of the airport, and then follow the signs to run at full speed to the real Delta research base.

There was no way, Sean could only endure the pain in his two arms and start running, but although his arms were very painful, he didn't feel much affected by his movements, who were often electrocuted.

Sean, along with the others, ran wildly towards the exit of the airport, and then on a new wide concrete pavement.

Led by a small car in front of them, they ran on the side of the road.

Next to him was the heavy goods vehicles coming and going in front of the airport, these trucks were moving fast, people were running next to them, and they turned their heads to see these trucks, like a galloping elephant passing by.

Sean carried his backpack and ran with his arms outstretched, occasionally glancing back at his teammates who were catching up behind him, and then at the vehicles that kept passing by.

The road ahead is long and leads into the woods.

They hadn't gone far before the trees obscured their view on their sides, there were traces of construction on both sides of the road, and there were even a few excavators parked next to the road.

Ten minutes had passed since the airport ran into the woods, but Sean didn't feel a little tired, and his beating heart was like the engine of a car, providing a steady stream of power for them to keep running this full-speed marathon.

After another five minutes, the hot body did not cause discomfort to Sean, who was a long-distance runner, and the road ahead finally changed.

Piercing the trees, towering walls and gates welcomed the soldiers, who were ushered into the Delta research base by guards wearing powered exoskeletons.

The interior of the base is very large, and the area of Sean is not easy to estimate, but in the open space on the side of the door, there are more than a dozen silver planes parked like winged eagles.

Further down the road is the rows of warehouses where trucks entering the base are unloaded and loaded, and the road is never blocked, even if there is a constant supply of trucks.

Further inside is a five-story building, with an ordinary appearance, not a bit of sci-fi atmosphere, but there are many antennas and pot lids on the roof.

Some of the special passages in the base also pass through a large number of drum-shaped industrial robots, which somewhat make up for the lack of science and technology in the building.

"Don't look around, soldier!" A man in a black uniform walked up to Sean in a few steps and pushed him in the direction of another building, and his impersonal stern expression made Sean dare not disobey.

The sneering Sean reported for the first time, and of course he didn't want to cause trouble, so he followed the predecessor straight into the building on the right.

Inside the building is a hall with some chairs where they are going to rest and wait for the people in the back.

Sean found his teammates here, leaned in, and found that they were discussing physical abnormalities, and only then did he realize that his body was abnormal.

Running from the airport to here, even if the process is not counted, it should be close to five kilometers, they ran all the way at full speed, except for the heart beating violently, the heat and sweat are more, and the feeling of hypoxia that will occur on weekdays is actually not!

"Is that the reason for those two shots?"

Sean's teammates also felt that it was because of those two stitches at the airport.

During the break, some bored people stood at the door and watched the situation in the Delta research base.

The industrial robots coming and going are the most beautiful scenery, and the Kun fighter planes parked not far in front are also eye-catching, but there are only trucks coming and going, and people don't seem to be the main component here.

No matter how exaggerated their fantasies were before they came here, they couldn't help but be a little disappointed at this point.

The two hundred soldiers who ran all arrived at the Delta research base within three hours.

Major General Noyce, who had hitchhiked at the truck door, had also returned to the base, he had arrived at the base two days earlier than the two hundred soldiers, and now he had a happy smile on his lips and shouted to follow.

Two hundred people descended from an inconspicuous staircase on the side of the building, the sound of clattering footsteps echoing through the empty stairwell, casting a veil over the heart.

Where is this going?

After walking hundreds of steps underground, Sean and the others had such doubts in their minds.

Eventually, they stopped in a hall full of boxes underground.

The hall was filled with only rows of chests on the edges and a heavy door in front of it.

General Noyce lined up the soldiers before smirking open the heavy gate.

The loud noise broke through the blockade, causing a lot of discomfort to the soldiers in the already deep and quiet environment.

"Look good, stinky boys! Don't drop your chin in your trouser pocket! ”

Major General Noyce laughed and led the way towards the noisy gate.

The hundred ordinary soldiers smelled the cold iron of the metal and the pungent smell of the engine oil, and with great curiosity, they walked neatly into the world behind the gate in two rows.

The group had not been long before it ran into a jam, for the soldier who was walking in front was so shocked by what he had left that he forgot to move forward, and his mouth was as big as Major General Neuss, who had peeked back, had thought, to plug his fist.

"That'...... What is that? ”

"Watt ??? Walt...... Oh......"

"It's... What the is this? ”

Three huge aircraft carriers!

In the vast underground space, three behemoths like reckless beasts hung quietly on giant metal supports.

A large number of industrial robots in flight move in and out of two of the carriers, occasionally sparking from the side for the eyes of the soldiers walking on the edge.

The roar of machinery and heavy metals resounded through the eardrums, and the strong smell of motor oil stimulated their senses even more.

Sean was pushed forward by the posterity, and he didn't want to miss out on the beautiful curves of the three big guys because he walked.

Major General Noyce let out a shrill laugh, and even if his expression was not much better when he saw the scene, it did not prevent him from laughing at the soldiers for not seeing it with the eyes of those who had passed by.

Trance!

The impact of the giant object brought the soldiers a sense of mental trance.

Even when he entered the temporary resting point, Sean was still the shadow of the Helitaire.

The whistle sounded, and in a few moments, the soldiers in the rest point were already assembled in a hall.

Major General Noyce is already waiting here.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Major General Noyce motioned to the last few people to close the door.

"You can see it, that's the tip of the iceberg of the 'future.'" Major General Noyce's expression became rare and serious at this time, and he walked around the team and said, "It seems to me great luck that you can sit here, because you are about to participate in the journey of the rise of mankind!" As Mr. Duncan once said, "Since the birth of mankind, we have experienced endless disasters, wisdom has given us strength, and complex thinking has led us into infighting...... Stupid infighting! ”

The soldiers all stared at Major General Noyce and continued to wait for the following.

"Why are we here? Every human being should have an epaulette on his shoulder that belongs to all mankind. The first thing you need to do when you come here is to rediscover who you are! ”

Major General Noyce stretched out his stout hand and ran his fingers across the eyes of all the soldiers present, "You, you! Fight for humanity! Know your position, and what you have to do is not only to protect Ambrera, but also to fight for humanity. Now Ambrera is not only a business, but also the engine that drives humanity forward, the task you are about to perform, is not as simple as you think, the last five days, in three days I will tell the content of the mission, all for me to put away your laziness, understand! ”

"Yes, sir!"
