Day35(3)—"Confrontation"

Unexpectedly, instead of the people who were trembling in the hallway by the Terminal Bird, it was Marx and Maxi who took the lead, and the supervisor asked them to go to the welfare department immediately and remain calm and sane.

"Rocky and Gray haven't come back yet......," Marx muttered, "maybe let's join them, or maybe they collect their bodies......"

"Marx's predecessors?" Seeing that the two seemed to be leaving, people immediately looked nervous and asked, "...... you Are you leaving us? ”

"The director asked us to act alone......" said Marx, as unemotional as possible.

"That'...... What if that monster suddenly runs somewhere and attacks you? ”

"There's always a way." Marx said with a resolute look in his eyes: "If this is a mission that can resolve the crisis, then I am willing to go." ”

For a moment, the air was as silent as death, and even the chanting of the Last Bird could not affect it in the slightest. People stood and silently saw off the two in the dark.

"Come on, everyone, we must wait for us to come back." It was Maxi who finally broke the gloomy atmosphere when he showed his trademark big smile, waved to the crowd, and left the hallway of the Intelligence Department with Marx.

The Apocalypse Bird still seemed to be waiting for the Lord to rest, and could faintly hear the huge claws slamming into the ground, as well as an unusually oozing unknown sound similar to the turning sound of rusty machinery, and the facility was full of civilian corpses, even in such a narrow corridor, a simple look could be seen hanging from the gallows covered with black feathers, like neatly manicured greenery on the side of the road, but full of banter and horror.

The people in the corridor are suffering not only out of darkness, but also the rapid loss of hope in their hearts, and from time to time there are colleagues who can't resist the temptation of dim lights, and they don't know how to move closer to the Lord's rest, at this time, they need their companions to hurry to inhale trace amounts of enkephalin for them to maintain their composure, but as the influence of the Apocalypse Bird spreads more and more, the number of colleagues who are difficult to control themselves increases...... No one knows if he will be the next person to be charmed, or if he will still have the ability to save the person he cares about from being sent into the scarlet jaw of the Apocalypse Bird. Anxiety and anxiety are wrapped in despair, and once again come to people's hearts.

"No, we can't go on like this!" In the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, a voice took the lead and shouted in the crowd like frightened birds: "How can we face Marx's predecessors in this state?!" How can such a discouragement be worthy of the care of his old man when he was in the training department? ”

As expected, it was Eugenie (Eugenie), who often played beside Marx, who made such bold statements, she was not a very strong guy, but she had a superhuman perseverance in her bones, she raised the eye lamp in her hand, "We can't sit still!" ”

"But...... We are too weak, what can we do? Helena from the Ministry of Welfare said with a bitter face: "That monster is ...... How could we possibly defeat something like that......"

"Maybe what we need to do isn't beat it?" Eugenie looked around: "Whether it is the director or the senior, we have never been asked to attack the monster itself directly, the only one who ordered us to attack was ......"

"The egg!" Paulings of the Central Headquarters answered.

"That's right!" Eugenie said excitedly: "This is it! That must be the monster's weakness, as long as we can destroy it......"

"But the monster is still there!" Maria from the Ministry of Security objected: "What should we do? ”

"We can divide the troops into two ways, and when one team attracts the attention of the monster attack, the other group can take the opportunity to attack!" Eugenie said in an extremely calm tone that did not belong to her appearance: "This is the only feasible way now, if my sacrifice can be exchanged for everyone's survival......" Eugenie suddenly raised the eye lamp in her hand and called loudly: "I'm going to attract the attention of the monster, who will come with me?!" ”

After a long silence, people looked at this simple, slightly sloppy plan with their own spirit of being destroyed all the time, whether they were untrustworthy or timid, and there were probably countless reasons, all pointing to the reality of cowering. Eugenie was proud of all her words, but there was no trace of timidity in her eyes, even full of pilgrimage piety, and at this moment, even in the endless darkness, in the dead silence of the grave, she did not shine as she did now.

Eugenie was small in stature, but the people were as humble as dust......

However, there were already people who did not want to remain silent, and they stood up: "I'll go!" The first to respond was Soln from the Department of Security, "I'll shoot, I can shoot through the monster's eyes!" With that, she took the bullet in her hand and sided with Eugenie.

"I ...... I'll go too! This time it was from the Ministry of Welfare, and he held up the green branch in his hand, "Senior Maxi saved my life, it's time for me to do something for him!" ”

Bella from the Punishment Department frowned and also stepped forward: "From the Welfare Department, don't steal the limelight from our Punishment Department." She pulled the same green branch from her back, stood beside Eugenie and said, "Don't think it's a reconciliation with your superiors, it's just that you don't want to be proud anymore." ”

"Thank you." Eugenie looked at Bella and said excitedly.

"Bella is in ...... Then I'll go too. ”

"We're going to the Corrections Department!"

"Count me Maria, too."

"And me, I'll go too!"

“……”

In the face of one response after another, Eugenie unconsciously left tears, "Thank you, thank you." Thank you for your willingness to stand with your seniors! She almost jumped up in excitement, "Let's get ready to act!" With that, Eugénie selected five of the best EGO equipment and most experienced combat colleagues among the conscripts as death squads, while the rest were responsible for destroying the birds' eggs. After a brief division of labor, Eugenie led the group to the door of the main lounge again.

The indescribable strange sound in his ears still kept coming from the other side of the door, and no one knew what terrible changes had taken place in it. And now, people are going to go to it, to touch the most terrifying unknown......

"Follow me!" Eugenie shouted, resolutely pressing the switch on the door.

As always, the Bird of the End is still standing in its place, like a monument waiting for people to see and sacrifice. But it was still so majestic and terrifying, and people couldn't help but sweat again.

But at this moment, it was already on the line, Eugenie adjusted her breathing slightly, and immediately ordered: "Hurry! Two groups are ready to attack the eggs, and one group is coming with me! With that, she picked up her eye lamp and rushed towards the end bird without hesitation.

"Let's do it too!" Bella from the Punishment Department immediately led the rest of the staff, cautiously and low-key approaching the blue bird egg that was enshrined on the strange nest platform.

But Apocalypse was not attracted by the menacing Eugenie and the others as expected, but suddenly let out a strange cry, turned his neck to a rather unnatural angle, and reflected the figures of Bella and the others in his one-eye, which was constantly radiating more and more intense twilight - and in the next second, the people who were "irradiated" immediately slowed down, their legs stumbled as if knotted, and the golden light gradually occupied their pupils, and the situation looked very bad!

"Not good! Apocalypse is trying to charm them! Suddenly aware that something was wrong, Eugenie shouted, and Soln was a man of action, and she immediately aimed her gun at the scarlet head of the Apocalypse Bird and pulled the trigger.

"Whoosh-" The dark blue bullet dragged a comet-like tail, instantly piercing time and space, directly piercing the head of the Apocalypse Bird, and literally opening a large hole in its head.

"Goo-" The Apocalypse Bird let out a long cry, and the charm immediately stopped. And those who had regained their senses by luck did not dare to slack off, and immediately grabbed their weapons again and rushed towards the egg.

Finally, the Apocalypse Bird was willing to face up to the presumptuous little creatures beneath its feet, and although Soln's shot had no practical effect, let alone threatened the life of the monster, it seemed to be a silent demonstration, a challenge from humans to the gods—these may have attracted the attention of Apocalypse. It swept its fiery gaze towards Eugenie and tried to confuse the crowd in the same way, but only to receive a second bullet that hit the large golden eye of the scarlet head.

At this point, the intentions of the people were very clear, as if out of curiosity or shock, the apocalypse stood in place, silent for a few seconds.

In this race of life and death, Bella immediately led the rest of the employees to the bird's egg, brandishing the large and small weapons in their hands, and doing their best to destroy this precious time when their comrades fought for their lives.

Although, the bird's egg is different from the existence of the apocalypse bird engraved into nothingness - it is more "tangible" and can be actively touched, as if it is a stack of anchors to locate reality. But even so, its own hardness and toughness are still far beyond the norm: "Bang! Even if Dia raised his eyelight hammer with all his might, it only opened a small crack in the eggshell.

"What the hell?! The monsters are moving! Paulins asked anxiously as he looked at the group that was wrestling with the Apocalypse Bird in the distance.

"Concentrate on attacking!" Bella's reply was short and firm: "If we fail, there's no point in what they do now!" She said, grasping the green branch and stabbing at the crevice of erosion that loomed at the egg.

"Goo-" The Apocalypse Bird did show hostility, but it didn't seem to be in a hurry to destroy the insect in front of it, it stretched out its huge bandaged claw on its right, wrapped in unknown power, and swept backwards in front of it with a thousand powers.

"What......!" Eugenie and Audrey are so close! The oncoming giant claw instantly fanned the two respectable colleagues, they were thrown into the air like marbles, and after a series of spins, rolls, and dizziness, Eugenie drew a complete parabola in the air and fell to the ground violently, and after several laps of rolling, the body with multiple fractures was already unable to move; Audrey, on the other hand, slammed into the outer wall of the main rest, falling to the ground unconscious.

"Get out of the way!" Soln shouted, and immediately dodged and fell to the narrow corner of the main lounge, and Maria, who was closer to her, did the same, dodging the deadly attack at the last moment; Hana, on the other hand, picked up the long-handled smile, used it as a fulcrum, and used a flexible body similar to pole vaulting, high above the oncoming giant arm of the Apocalypse Bird, and flashed over without danger.

"Eugenie!" Maria shouted, and hurriedly rushed forward to check on the situation of the two, but was immediately stopped by Hana, Maria was obviously quite resistant to this, she struggled and said, "Hana-senpai, what are you doing......"

"Bang!!" Before the words fell, the giant claw on the left side of the Apocalypse Bird immediately slammed down, and the unimaginably huge force almost shook the two of them out of place.

"Be careful, don't be careless!" Soln reminded the two of them as he continued to fire at the Apocalypse Bird.

Hana pursed her lips and said to Maria, "I...... I know you're anxious about her, and so am I; But not now, Bella and the others are waiting for us. With that, she put a smile on her back and tried to move quickly towards the blind spot of the Apocalypse Bird's possible attack.

Maria sighed, as an employee who had been in the Security Department for more than twenty days, she could quickly adjust to her emotions. Maria stared at the selfish, cold, life-depriving figure of others, clasped her hand in her hand with her admiration, and poured the corrosive pink liquid into the Apocalypse Bird's body.

"Go to hell! Monster. Mary roared angrily.
