The piercing alarm is still wailing, but the sound has become weaker and weaker.糍
Railway transportation worker Morton followed the people who were being evacuated. After a day of fatigue and fear, he huddled in the corner of the shelter.
The cold wind blown out by the ventilation valve in the passage blew through his work clothes that were soaked after running, causing shivers to the bones. But he and his coworkers could only endure it, waiting to be allowed to leave the shelter.
Command.
"Wake up, Morton! Wake up!" The sound of distant and approaching voices woke Morton from his drowsiness, and the concerned faces of his companions gradually restored his consciousness.
"Damn it! Wake up! You'll get sick if you sleep like this! Don't you want to die?"
Companion Ticia was still chattering, but her voice and mouth shape were divided into two parallel lines in Morton's perception, and they were unable to overlap in his consciousness.
"Oh, you are... Tisia. I am..."
He struggled to open his mouth to respond, but the face of the co-worker began to deform due to fear.糍
"Guard! Guard! Someone is sick here!" He vaguely heard Tisia calling loudly.
From the expanding pool of blood in front of him, Morton roughly knew the identity of the "patient".
"Am I sick?" he thought. The pain in his head was concentrated in the back half, slightly lower.
There is the location of the frontal lobe and hippocampus, which are mainly responsible for the body's memory and self-recognition functions...
"I actually know this..." The extra knowledge in the consciousness is as intense as the pain, as if they are one body and come from some unknown gift.
The footsteps of the guards were getting closer and closer. The sound of the chitin friction of the carapace and the scraping of the steel pads on the soles of the leather boots was so eye-catching that Morton subconsciously figured out their distance and gait from here. p>
"30 meters, two." He murmured unconsciously, but his attention was immediately taken away by his unstoppable nosebleed.糍
"That's him?"
"Yes! For the sake of the Emperor, save him!"
"Don't worry, trust us."
The guard confirmed in front of Tisia, and then the two of them lifted Morton from his armpits and dragged him to the emergency medical cabin in the corner of the shelter.
"He will leave it to you..."
"No problem, there are no other special signs except nosebleeds. It doesn't look like an infectious disease, so don't be nervous."
"We're right outside the door, call us anytime if you need anything."糍
"Okay..."
The cramp-like headache continues, but is getting weaker.
Morton felt that his consciousness was like a magical boat, constantly broken under the impact of the tide, but constantly repairing itself.
But after each repair, many more memory fragments appeared in his consciousness.
The mind was repeatedly baptized in this way, and the scattered fragments became more and more as the tide invaded.
The fragments in his memory are forming strange fragments. Morton's mind is like a flickering oil lamp. In a state of dying, he actually begins to think of a proposition full of philosophical meaning:
"The boat is constantly being repaired, is it still the same boat? Or..."獍
What woke Morton out of coma again was not only the doctor's inquiry, but also the stimulation of the flashlight's direct pupil.
His consciousness began to restart for a long time, but his instinct was still answering the doctor's questions.
"Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Head...headache..."
"How much overtime have you been working lately? Have you eaten anything special after get off work?"
"No..."
"Okay, your body temperature is normal. There is no problem with your blood pressure. It's probably due to overwork and a cold. I'll prescribe you some medicine..."糍
Putting the flashlight on the mechanical disk beside the bed, the doctor turned his head and started writing notes on the desk.
It is not easy to construct effective treatment plans in pharmaceuticals that are accessible to civilians, and doctors have long accepted this fact.
Click...
"Are you feeling better?"
The faint sound of metal collision awakened the doctor from his diagnosis and treatment thoughts, and he habitually asked the patient behind him.
But unlike all previous patients, he received an overly calm answer:
"Very good, unprecedentedly good."糍
"You..." The doctor who felt something strange just turned around, and Morton in his field of vision had walked behind him at some point.
A slender scalpel was held back by a big, oily hand, and it was getting closer and closer to the doctor's field of vision...
Tsk...
The sharp but non-flexible blade silently cuts through the flexible skin. While piercing the artery, it also accurately avoids the complex cartilage of the neck, and finally cuts open the trachea below the throat.
"Ho...ho..."
Seeing the doctor in front of him die, Morton's cold eyes showed no mercy.
He picked up two more scalpels from the mechanical disk. In the short few meters from the desk to the door, the information of the two guards flashed through his mind at high speed.糍
"There is still one hour left in the countdown to 0:00, and the straight-line distance from the mission target is 5 kilometers...
There are two guards at the door, one is 1.82 meters tall and the other is 1.79 meters tall. Both weigh close to 85 kilograms. Their fat thickness is c, muscle dimension is c, bone strength is c, and reaction speed is d..."
Practical killing knowledge and experience are unfamiliar to him, but it does not prevent him from applying them skillfully.
The self-awareness in his memory has gradually recovered, but unfortunately, it is not him who returned to the world.
The guard's position was not with his back to the door, and he was unable to deal with the two people in an instant. Morton, who was separated by the door, was waiting for a suitable opportunity.
"The height of the standard carapace neck guard is 4.5 centimeters, and the optimal cutting angle is 30°. The gap between the carapace waist is 7 centimeters above and behind the armed belt. There is a ten square centimeter gap behind the boot armor and knee armor...
”
"Left...right...left..."獍
Morton repeated his plan while waiting. The memory in his brain was forming a conditioned reflex, and the slightly trembling tendons on his limbs were also cooperating to complete the work.
All these preparations were completed in a matter of seconds, with only the cold light of the scalpel flashing in the quiet medical room.
Buzz...
When a vehicle full of soldiers passed by in the passage, it drew the attention of the two guards away.
And the moment the personnel carrier disappeared around the corner, the door opened...
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi...
In the empty underground corridor, in the center of the two shadows illuminated by the light, there is a demon raging;獍
The sound of intensive blade insertion was heard. The two guards had the horror on their faces and the stab wounds on their necks, waists, and backs of their knees. They witnessed the entire process of this bloody killing with their own existence.
Pulling off the black dust-proof scarf from the soldier's chest and wiping the blood on his face, Morton picked up the Appirina automatic gun on the ground and skillfully completed the full gun self-inspection while breathing.
Pull off the armed belts from the two soldiers and put them on, and then insert several found magazines of the same model and caliber.
Morton prepared to leave after arming himself, but turned back again after taking a few steps.
Hiss!
The body of the guard was looted again, and the water bottle and compressed dry food on his body were also taken away. Perhaps out of consideration for the upcoming journey, Morton did not even spare the boots of the two men.
After fully arming himself, he quietly blended into the shadows of the passage using standard Astartes tactics.糍
It wasn't until a few minutes after he disappeared that the sounds of routine communication sounded from the helmets of the two guards.
