Near the mining area.

Elena, who had just finished checking the power distribution situation, took advantage of the break and relaxation to go to the public restroom.

Push open the single rooms one by one to view them.

After confirming that no one was around, she walked into the innermost one, locked the door, took out her exclusive mobile phone, and then used the in-ear miniature headphones to contact Lin:

"Sir, did you find anything?"

The communication was silent for a while, but soon came Lin's brief reply: "We have some clues, and we are going to sneak into the mining area next."

Hearing this, Elena lowered her voice and said in surprise: "Are you going to sneak into the mining area now?"

"No." Lin denied: "This time period is not suitable for sneaking in, and I still need your help to carry out the operation later."

"Well, I understand, by the way, sir..." Elena reported her findings:

"This morning, many miners followed the instructions of the security guards and went to the No. 09 mining area in the deepest part of Assis. It is a bit strange. If we want to sneak into the mining area to investigate, the No. 09 mining area is the best choice."

"Okay, you can continue your daily work first, and we will discuss more detailed steps after the work is completed. Don't arouse suspicion by others. Making sure your identity is not exposed is your first priority." Lin warned.

"Okay sir, please don't worry."

End communication.

Elena put away her cell phone, pressed the flush button and walked out of the single room, not forgetting to wash her hands before leaving.

After leaving the public restroom, Elena prepared to check the power distribution room outside the next mining area according to the requirements of the next shift.

However, she didn't go far when the lights in the corridor quickly turned off, and the dark red emergency lights immediately came on, providing some light for her and all the clueless people.

after.

An urgent reminder came out on the radio: "There is a pressure loss in the mining area. All personnel are requested to evacuate the mining area immediately! All personnel are requested to evacuate the mining area immediately!"

Loss of pressure??

Elena looked confused when she heard the reminder, but she was still ready to evacuate the mining area with people.

And at the same time, the sleeping area...

"Beep! Beep!"

There were also piercing alarms, and the lights in the passages and corridors were dim, with only the red emergency lights on.

"How is this going?"

"I don't know, even the Internet and communications are gone."

"Is it caused by the Hengxin storm?"

The confused family members of the employees left the dormitory and discussed with each other what had happened to Assis. Among them were Carrie, who was holding Neil's hand, and the short-haired girl.

at this time.

The doors of all the dormitories opened automatically, and there were more than a dozen fully armed security guards equipped with mechanical skeletons, holding loaded civilian pulse firearms, running toward the area.

When they got here, the security guards quickly dispersed and broke into the dormitories one by one. Another security guard rushed straight towards Carrie, the short-haired woman and others.

!!

Seeing this situation...

run!

Although they didn't understand why the security guard was so crazy, the human instinct of fear prompted them to turn around and run away. Carrie even picked up Neil and ran away quickly.

But no matter how fast your legs run, you can't outrun the security guard with mechanical skeletons. What's more, the security guard also has a gun in his hand. Just listen...

"Da da!"

The crisp bursts of pulse firearms resounded throughout the entire area.

"Poof! Poof!"

"Mother!"

"no, do not want!"

"Help!!"

The gunshots were mixed with the sound of human bodies being exploded and torn apart by shellless pulse bombs, and people's extremely desperate screams and calls for help.

At this moment, in Elena's cabin.

Even Lin, who had just changed into casual clothes and had dealt with many incidents, never expected that the situation would suddenly change.

But he did not panic, but immediately took out the armed belt from the equipment box, fastened it, and quickly stuffed various tools, grenades and battery magazines into different pockets and tactical bags, and then put on a pair of holographic glasses.

Finally, grab the compact laser microflush, adjust your breathing, and aim the muzzle at the open hatch.

Soon, the security guard who had brutally murdered women and children appeared in view.

Lin immediately pulled the trigger.

"Ta! Ta!"

The laser micro-blast also made a crisp gunshot sound, and two orange "high-energy beams", one after the other, hit immediately and melted through the security guard's helmet and left chest armor.

These two beams of light caused fatal damage to the security guard, and their strength continued unabated. They were shot into the corridor wall before they completely stopped.

However, the security guard who was attacked...

"Roar...Ouch!!"

Not only did he not die immediately as expected, but he roared like a beast and struggled in pain.

If you listen carefully to this roar, it seems like different species are blended together, and you can even vaguely hear the screams of humans.

Let out a roar at the same time.

The body of the security guard was also undergoing uncontrollable changes, with countless slender, bloody tentacles breaking through the uniform and armor from the inside out.

Its head also split to the left and right from the gap penetrated by the beam, "spurting" more tentacles twitching back and forth, and jagged bone tissue grew out of the edge of the crack.

Witnessing such a change, Lin had no time to be surprised and think.

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

He flicked the thumb of his right hand upward to switch the shooting mode, and his index finger tightened the trigger, shooting a dense beam of light at the inhuman security guard.

In an instant.

The high-energy beam ignited the clothes, and the fire enveloped them. Finally, the security guard was stopped from continuing to mutate and struggle. He fell backward and collapsed on the corridor floor with a "thump!" and stopped moving.

Finish the immediate threat.

Lin quickly stepped forward, came to the left side of the door, and leaned against the wall.

Then he held the gun with his left hand, took out a flash grenade from the armed belt with his right hand, hooked the tab with his thumb, flipped the safety with his index finger, and counted three seconds silently in his mind.

As soon as three seconds passed, he threw it out the door with all his strength, and then...

"Boom~!"

The flash bomb was successfully detonated, emitting a dazzling white light and causing Lin Du to have a slight tinnitus.

"Da da da!"

It was also the detonation of the flash bomb that affected the security guards gathered in the corridor, causing them to shoot blindly.

Of course, this also exposes "them" in advance.

So Lin continued to follow the same steps, throwing another flash bomb and an acid bomb containing both concentrated alien blood and diluent.

Outside the door after the second flash bomb detonates.

I saw the security guards forming formations covering each other and firing volleys of gunfire again. The strong light and loud noise caused by the detonation also prevented these security guards from noticing the acid bombs...

"Bang~!" There was a muffled sound.

The explosion of the acid bomb made little noise.

However, after Lin released the insurance, the concentrated blood and diluent began to react, and at the moment of the explosion, a thick light green mist was quickly sprayed around.

"嗗…嗗…"

Afterwards, the thick fog of strong acid corroded everything indiscriminately, including the hollow metal floor, the extinguished lights, the walls on both sides, including the security guards who were infected or "replaced" by something unknown.

"Roar...ow...!"

Corroded by strong acid, they instantly lost their ability to attack and move, and their bodies were uncontrollably twisted and deformed.

One of the security guards' head even voluntarily detached from the body and grew arthropod-like legs on both sides, just like a "human-headed spider" trying to escape from the strong acid fog.

But this "human-headed spider" still couldn't avoid the fate of being corroded. It didn't run far before it "sticked" to the metal floor.

Lin, who took the opportunity to leave his cabin at this moment, would inevitably feel nauseated after seeing such a scene that challenged the limits of his endurance, no matter how experienced he was.

After only pausing for a moment, he relied on the architectural blueprint provided by the holographic glasses, turned around and ran away from here.

Pass by, then bypass the square planted with greenery, and come to the main corridor outside.

While in the corridor, Lin saw an even more bloody and disgusting scene.
To be continued...
