Chapter 26 Two Questions
Outside the hospital, a small team of eight people was gathering.
Dressed in almost identical black trench coats, they sprayed some special potion into the neighborhood while evacuating as many patients and medical staff as possible.
After all this was done, someone reported to the team leader: "Team Zhang, the cognitive impairment and evacuation activities have been completed. ”
Hearing this, the captain surnamed Zhang raised his eyes and looked into the depths of the hospital.
At this point, the corridors of the hospital seemed empty and blank to him.
After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, "Then act according to the containment rules." ”
Hearing Team Zhang say this, someone frowned slightly: "Do you want to wait for support?" ”
"The anomalous exponential rise we just detected does not appear to be singular, which means that the contraindications may be plural this time. Or maybe the danger level is far higher than E, and with the strength of our team, we may not be able to successfully contain it......"
This is a very normal doubt.
Just now, they sensed that the anomaly index had suddenly risen several levels.
The general control room located in Jianghan University immediately sent a team to contain it, and they were the closest team to this neighborhood at this moment.
If the other teams want to rush over, it will take at least half an hour or so.
Of course.
You can't blame the other teams for their efficiency.
The main thing is that the real world has been peaceful for a long time, and there may not be one taboo for a few months, so naturally there is no need for a large number of people. An experienced team of eight is enough to contain a taboo object with a not-so-high anomaly index.
The "Anomaly Index" is an important indicator used by the team to assess the danger level of a contraindication. It represents the degree to which the contraindications affect reality, and high values are not necessarily dangerous, but low values are generally safe.
At the moment, however, the anomaly index they detected was quite ...... Odd.
There are multiple anomalous indices superimposed on top of each other.
This means that there are a large number of contraindications in this hospital at the same time!
This is undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
A team of eight people is capable of containing a single taboo, but the combination of several taboos is likely to be far more terrifying than imagined.
However, Team Zhang just pursed his lips and then patted his subordinates on the shoulders.
"Somebody has to do something first," he said, "and as a containment team, all we need is gather information and wait for our colleagues." ”
"Information is the most valuable asset of containment operations."
"So far, through surveillance and various clues, we know that in areas where the anomaly index fluctuates significantly, there was once an incredibly fast humanoid creature passing by. Preliminary estimates suggest that it may be the object to be contained. ”
"Since it's a humanoid creature, maybe there is a possibility of negotiation."
As he spoke, Team Zhang opened the pistol's insurance: "So communicate first, and then collect information." Prepare to shout and repeat it three times. If no one comes out in three days......"
His eyes froze slightly: "Then consider taking drastic measures!" ”
The voice fell.
Soon someone raised a loudspeaker and shouted into the corridor: "The people inside are not allowed to move!" You're already surrounded! ”
The sound of the horn was loud, echoing through the hallway.
All eyes were on somewhere in the hallway.
Their fingers were all on the trigger, as if they would move if they noticed anything unusual.
There was silence in the hallway.
After a long time.
The person with the horn just wanted to repeat it a second time.
And yet the next second.
"Click".
With the creak of the door opening.
A gentle footstep echoed through the hallway.
In addition to the sound of footsteps, there was something that lit the accompaniment of the ground.
The sound is like a cane, like the tip of an umbrella, unhurried and awe-inspiring.
The sound of "tuk tuk" is like a crisp echo of a chess piece quietly falling on the chessboard. The player's wrist is flipped slightly, and there is a mountain of chess moves in a row.
Listening to this voice, everyone's spirits subconsciously became nervous.
They stared at the end of the hallway, thinking faster than ever.
However, their movements are very steady. No one will shoot without an order.
That's the experience - in the absence of sufficient information, no squad will rush to attack taboos!
In this oppressive silence.
A figure stepped out of the night and into the light of reality.
The light above him pale and pale, but the shadow grew obliquely into the darkness.
At the junction of light and darkness, He stood as if he were standing above the dividing line of time.
The oil lamp is lifted behind it, illuminating the shadows that permeate behind it. The cane was lightly lifted in front of it, and the dust under the chandelier was scattered.
The white mask is facing everyone, and there is no sorrow or joy in the pure white.
Yet, at the moment of His appearance.
On the watches worn by the team members, the number symbolizing the "anomaly index" soared at this moment!
"Forbidden things!"
Everyone realized this instantly.
And......
Or a living taboo!
In the past, taboo objects were basically objects, and there were never living things.
But research speculates that there must be taboos in living bodies.
And among the living taboos.
Humanoid taboos must also exist!
Moreover, researchers believe that it is a completely different system from the extraordinary.
Because transcendent uses "aura".
And the human type contraindications......
It itself is like a vessel in human skin, a taboo thing that looks like a human!
Thinking of this, everyone's attention became more focused and cautious.
The properties of contraindications are unknown, but one thing is clear.
They are all very dangerous, and even have terrifying powers to change the rules!
Therefore, before the information on the contraindications was obtained.
All squads must be tempted and tried, not suppressed.
There have been cases in the past.
Because they did not understand the characteristics of the taboos, some of the team members rashly opened fire.
And the result of that time was that all the living beings within a radius of several kilometers were killed by that shot.
Because the taboo's ability is "reflex", it reflects bullets and kills thousands.
Since then, "information" has been the highest priority for the suppression of taboos.
And in the face of the taboo of the human type, which has never appeared......
After hesitating for a moment, Team Zhang spoke, "Hello." ”
He wanted to see if he could communicate.
If you can communicate.
Then that means there may be a safe way to contain the other party!
After hearing Team Zhang's questioning.
Beneath the white figure.
A vague voice slowly came out: "Don't be vigilant, I don't have malicious intent at the moment." ”
Under the pale mask, those eyes looked at Team Zhang: "It's just that there are some things that need to be done in advance, so I bother you, that's all." ”
"However, it is true that breaking into the master's house is considered a presumptuous interruption. I should apologize accordingly for such an act. ”
Gently raise the oil lamp in your hand.
The white figure whispered to Team Zhang, "In that case, then I'll give you two questions, and you can get the corresponding answers from me." ”
"Whatever it is, I'll give you a response."
