As the isolation door was opened, the true appearance of the cold and empty laboratory was revealed.
The Forerunner experimental building used to seal off the Flood is very sturdy, and with the robots cleaning and maintaining it themselves, the environment here is as white as dust even after a hundred thousand years.
Looking at the environment here, some team members muttered: "It looks very new. It doesn't look like something went wrong in the laboratory at all."
"Some accidents often go wrong at the right time, so be careful!" Chen Mu said quietly.
After hearing this, the exploration team members did not dare to be careless and started to mentally observe possible traps.
Chen Mu followed the map provided by Guilty Spark to the destination while watching everything here.
After entering this clean-looking experimental base, everything here exudes an uncomfortable atmosphere.
Under normal circumstances, his extremely compressed mental perception can scan the general situation within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.
If necessary, he can turn on this state for a long time.
But in this experimental cabin, his mental perception was severely compressed. Chen Mu can now only perceive positions within a radius of a few hundred meters.
There are also some problems with the spiritual connection of Chen Mu's talisman communication device.
Chen Mu looked at the experimental base and found that the walls of the base were doped with some alloy materials that absorb spiritual power.
"Looking at the pattern, it's not an inscription on the talisman array, but it has the ability to interfere with mental scanning and prying eyes and absorb spiritual energy. It should be a special control device made by the Forerunners."
"I didn't expect that the Forerunners' technology is so powerful that they even learned to use rare materials to create a spiritual isolation array. Although their techniques are new, our mental perception can no longer fully spy on the information here."
"That's not right. Since the Forerunners have mastered the method of using spiritual energy, why don't they try to use spiritual energy to destroy the Flood? Do they only know how to use it simply?" Chen Mu thought about the information about the Zerg and the birth of it.
The birth of the Zerg can be regarded as a coincidence.
In ancient times, the Pioneers were furious after being unexpectedly attacked and driven away from the galaxy by the Forerunners whom they regarded as obsolete. The Pioneers then restarted a long-shelved plan. With their powerful technology, they brought together at least 12 unknown creatures (including one
Pioneer), created the terrifying Zerg race, the Flood. They decided to release this biological weapon in the galaxy as a means of sanctions to avenge the Forerunners.
They also lead a trial to re-evaluate the direction of life to determine whether the race they believe can inherit their mantle - human beings - can actually inherit the mantle.
This is also an element of the Halo universe's backstory.
In the past, everyone only thought that the Flood Demons, Pioneers and Forerunners were typical materialistic scientific societies, but everything here reminded Chen Mu and his party that this place was not as simple as they thought.
Everything is getting more and more interesting!
"Captain Chen Mu, I feel like I'm being watched. This feeling is getting stronger and stronger."
Chen Mu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It must have noticed that we were approaching and was always ready to fight."
"good!"
The vigilance of the exploration team members was once again heightened.
The closer they get to the target area, the greater their mental suppression becomes. Everyone thinks that the Flood must have mastered some mysterious power.
"It has been going smoothly for so long that I have become careless. Shouldn't I take the initiative to take charge this time?" Chen Mu thought in his mind while exploring the surrounding area.
"We're here!" The exploration team has reached the dangerous area marked by Guilty Spark.
[Humans, after passing through two sealed doors ahead, you will be in direct contact with the Zerg. A large number of Zerg specimens are stored there. Remember what I said. Once you are infected, I will completely close the laboratory door and block your way to death]
After Guilty Spark said this, he directly used his authority to seal the isolation door.
呲~
As the sealed door was opened, the uncomfortable feeling became clearer!
As he gradually approached the isolation area, Chen Mu's mental warning gradually increased, and he could feel a dense mass of disgusting things gathering inside.
It is a vicious consciousness that is extremely greedy for life and extremely thirsty for flesh and blood.
The strong evil aura can still be clearly sensed by Chen Mu even if there is a door that can isolate the mental scan.
The expedition members also felt something strange here.
"Ma Dan, it really has something to do with spiritual power."
"Isn't this more interesting?"
"Get into battle formation."
Chen Mu and his party quickly rushed into the door, only to hear a loud click, and the special alloy door behind them quickly closed.
This is quite similar to the ghost-closing trick in some horror movies.
[Human, I'm sorry, for safety reasons, you must prove your strength before you can go out]
Chen Mu asked with a half-smile, "Why did it close suddenly?"
[For the absolute safety of Special Zone 04, to prevent the leakage of experimental products. Human beings, you must clear everything inside before I can reopen the door, otherwise you can only wait here to die]
Hearing Guilty Spark's words, Chen Mu's mouth twitched slightly.
They overestimate the guy's mechanics and style.
I really don’t know how to explain it to the human army outside.
Chen Mu activated the talisman communicator to inform the large troops at the rear of the news, and then they all focused on the experimental base.
The loud noise and the smell of flesh and blood awakened the prisoners here.
The Forerunner experimental base has become as busy as a livestock slaughterhouse.
Various, insane-looking Zerg creatures emerge from hibernation.
They emit excited and piercing screams, the sound is like the evil ghosts of hell, full of desire, greed and bloodthirsty excitement.
Humans and Zerg have nothing to communicate with either.
The Zerg who have awakened from hibernation now believe that these humans are food provided to them by their captors.
Since they broke through the petri dish in which they were imprisoned, the captors have sealed the cages and used technical means and food restrictions to keep their species at a minimum survival level.
Although it has only been a few years since the last feeding, and it will be a long time before the next feeding, they are infinitely greedy for flesh and blood!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
These creatures that have ravaged the entire galaxy began to attack human food in their most familiar way.
The Zerg, who were shaped like octopuses, with their bodies covered with muscle tumors and twisted tentacles, rushed towards Chen Mu and his party at a speed faster than flying humans.
puff!!!
What greeted the Zerg was a stream of blazing flames.
Specially modified plasma flame guns release high temperatures of up to 3,000 degrees. Guns made of reinforced materials can continuously release plasma flows, melting anyone who tries to get close to them into fly ash.
"Jie..."
The bugs let out piercing screams, trying to give the food a mental shock.
It's a pity that this kind of roar containing special spiritual attacks is completely ineffective against Chen Mu and his party. Not to mention that they carry armor and magic weapons to resist spiritual shocks. Their own spiritual strength is countless times higher than that of these miscellaneous fish.
Chen Mu, who was spraying plasma flames to his heart's content, burned hundreds of Zerg into ashes, while he also recorded the attack characteristics of the Zerg in his mind.
The Zerg are not afraid of death. For ordinary people, they have extremely fast movement and burst speed.
They can also interfere with the mental and sonic shocks that ordinary people perceive...
Ordinary warrior troops not only need to be equipped with high-temperature equipment, but also need to be prepared for the mental impact of the Zerg. They need to add another protective measure to the warriors of the Halo universe.
The Zerg attacked continuously for several minutes, and after losing thousands of corpses in embarrassment, they found that they had not gained anything, and screamed loudly.
Their attack strategies have changed.
Among the harsh screams, there was also a hissing sound.
It was corrosive and infected pus that was dark green, blood red, and glowing with black mist.
The saliva spewed by the Zerg can destroy the target's armor, block the target's movement speed, and interfere with the target's vision.
Unfortunately, this attack was blocked by the light shield that suddenly appeared.
Even if the sputum of the Zerg corrodes the energy shield until it smokes, it cannot destroy this seemingly weak, but actually extremely strong energy shield.
After using the Forerunner detection equipment to monitor the battlefield, the Flower of Sin saw the powerful combat effectiveness of humans, and its multi-threaded electronic brain analyzed the combat effectiveness of Chen Mu and his party.
In just half a second, it opened an isolation door with the authority of the leader.
Several flesh-and-blood monsters, seven or eight meters tall and so distorted that their original appearance could not be seen, emerged from the isolation door.
"Roar~"
As soon as they came out, these guys vented their grievances of being imprisoned with angry roars.
The three-headed monster looked at Chen Mu, and its roar surged again.
Accompanied by a mental shock wave that would make ordinary people's livers and gallbladders burst, several Zerg monsters rushed towards Chen Mu.
Whoosh!
Three team members wielding super-long lightsabers met three rampaging monsters.
The super-high temperature released by the sword-shaped plasma bound by the strong magnetic field slashed the giant Zerg's body, and the opponent's flesh and blood was chopped into pieces like tofu.
The lightsaber performed a meritorious service, the giant Zerg roared ferociously, and the warriors were at ease.
They danced their lightsabers into hot wheels one after another, and chopped the three big heads into pieces.
After a while, the three-headed monster separated from its head and became a piece of meat.
Except for the strange chitinous carapace on the Zerg's body, which was slightly sluggish, all other limbs were destroyed by cutting into tofu.
After taking care of this, some soldiers released plasma flamethrowers and incorporated the flesh and blood bodies of the three-headed monsters into them.
The grease exploded when exposed to fire, and the flesh and blood turned into charcoal. The pungent smell of paste filled the entire space. But everyone's attention was now focused on a Zerg coming out of a closed cabin.
It was a 3-meter-high humanoid monster. Its body had been transformed by Zerg genes. Its head was covered with countless tentacles. Its eyes turned pale white, and it seemed that it had lost the ability to observe the pupils.
"Humans, you are very strong, but it's a pity that you are here. Give up struggling, you will eventually become part of us!"
"Haha, you don't sound too petty. Who are you? Why do you look like this?"
"I, who am I? I am the terminator of civilization, I am the destroyer of the universe, I am...ah ah... I am Fremont, number, number 7315... I, I..."
Looking at the humanoid monster holding its head and howling, Chen Mu and others looked at each other...
