The holographic screens automatically unfolded on the helmets of all D-class personnel, showing them their detailed status, basic information about the surrounding environment, and their main mission for this operation——
Explore the neighborhood, looking for, and investigating anything of note.
So the D-class personnel scattered around the Gate of Hell carefully observed this desert that made them feel very uncomfortable according to the mission content presented in the upper right corner of the screen.
Thanks to the unfinished version of the plague doctor's vaccine, they were temporarily immune to the cries and whispers that could affect their minds, but the special environment of hell still made them feel chest tightness and mild dizziness.
look around.
What most attracts the attention of D-class personnel should be the stone forest located at the twelve o'clock direction of the Gate of Hell, as well as the looming towering peaks deep in the stone forest.
The D-class personnel who discovered this situation looked at each other.
"Guys...are we really going there?" A D-class personnel couldn't stop trembling.
"What can we do if we don't go?" The D-class personnel who was officially appointed by Umbrella to lead the team pointed at the T-106 Tyrant not far in front of him and said in a strong tone:
"How about you have a good time and be beaten to death by these big guys, or why don't you go over there and investigate! Anyway, I want to fight. I don't care if you want to die, but don't drag me and the guys who also want to survive.
."
After saying that, the leader walked towards the stone forest.
"Go...or else, die, roar...!"
The tracker with a certain IQ also roared at the right time, raised the rotating pulse machine gun hanging on his right hand, and pointed it at the hesitant D-class crowd.
"I'm not going to be a depressed person!"
"I don't want my head to be crushed by them either."
The D-class personnel who had the same idea as the leader immediately followed the leader who had not gone far.
"Hey, let's go..."
Faced with the option of being executed on the spot, or going to the stone forest where he would not necessarily die but could live for a while longer, even the most indecisive D-class personnel had to make a choice.
Because they have killed their compatriots, they know the value of life better than anyone else, and they are also more afraid of death than anyone else.
And some are purely anti-social and cruel representatives. As long as there is a chance to live, they will fight for it by any means.
For example, D-, who was appointed as the leader of this group of D-class personnel, was rejected for promotion many times, so he went on a rampage and killed his boss and colleagues with whom he had conflicts.
During the trial, D- insisted that his superiors and colleagues who were killed were themselves to blame.
However, according to the investigation, it was found that the boss declined D-'s promotion application for legitimate reasons, and the so-called conflict with his colleagues was actually an inadvertent collision.
Most of these D-class personnel have files and resumes that are even more "excellent" than D-.
Next.
The D-class personnel were dispersed into more than a dozen small groups, with the trackers and six tyrants on the outermost perimeter, alert to nearby movements, and walked together towards the stone forest directly in front of the Gate of Hell.
Soon, they arrived at the edge of the stone forest.
Upon closer inspection, we discovered that these tree-like "stones" are not short in height. According to the measurement on the helmet screen, the average height of the stone trees is about 18 meters.
Moreover, these stone trees are not completely dead. When D-class personnel enter the interior of the stone forest and get closer to them, the stone trees will twist strangely and stiffly.
Seeing this kind of stone tree that is beyond common sense, the D-class personnel just said "Oh my God! This thing can move?" and "It's best to stay away from them."
Because they have witnessed so many anomalies, their tolerance for anomalies has increased significantly without even realizing it.
It's just a moving stone tree, it's not enough to cause panic.
What they saw and saw was also transmitted out of hell through the wired base station, allowing Umbrella to understand the true appearance of hell.
As they went deeper, the team also saw many "native creatures".
For example, a skull with flying eyes and red light, or a large hound with three heads and red skin, or more of a skinny, skinny humanoid creature.
The cover provided by stone trees allowed them to observe secretly from a distance.
D-class personnel discovered that these strange hellish creatures seemed to be heading towards the mountain, but they would fight each other on the way.
After the weaker party fell to the ground, the stronger party opened its mouth and bit, swallowing all the flesh and blood of the fallen party.
Even D-class personnel hiding far away can clearly see the person eating, and their muscles and physique are undergoing changes visible to the naked eye as they eat.
See this.
Anyone who is not a biological expert can guess that the creatures living in hell also abide by the rule of "the weak eat the strong" and choose to devour their own kind without mercy in order to become stronger.
"Roar!!"
at this time.
A demon with a body, an ox's head, and ox's hooves roared angrily, waving the bone hammer clenched in his right hand, trying to drive away the hellish creatures that were killing each other.
"Aw...aow..."
A gluttonous three-headed dog was beaten upright by a bone hammer, and its body flew several meters away and fell heavily to the ground, moaning half-dead.
Immediately afterwards, the approaching bull-headed demon had no intention of eating and continued to swing the bone hammer, smashing the three-headed dog into a pulp.
This move immediately shocked all the hell creatures, causing them to immediately run towards the mountain.
"hehe…!"
The bull-headed demon let out a satisfied laugh, put the bone hammer on its shoulder and continued to move forward. It seemed that it was deliberately driving the hell creatures to gather towards the mountain.
After observing this, the D-class personnel hiding in the dark hesitated again, because there must be a large number of demons and hell creatures on the other side of the mountain.
One person even opened the communication and said to everyone: "Guys, do you still want to go forward? It's almost done..."
But before he finished speaking, the mission content in the upper right corner of the helmet screen switched to "Close the mountain and obtain more information."
After receiving the new instructions, all D-class personnel could not help but "greet Umbrella cordially" in their hearts, but they were unable to resist and had no choice but to continue walking through the stone forest.
Going deeper, the demonic creatures became increasingly dense, and the team came into contact and confrontation with them. Fortunately, the threats were quickly eliminated by the six tyrants, without the pursuer using its rotating machine gun.
When they reached the extreme position, the D-class personnel finally saw the situation on this side of the mountain.
I saw a majestic palace building at the foot of the mountain, and an endless army of demons gathered in the open spaces and squares. Some of them were huge, more than a hundred meters tall, like the mythical Titans.
Seeing this scene, many D-class personnel couldn't help but sigh in low voices, while some were wondering whether a nuclear bomb could clear out this group of demons.
But it wasn't just the demon army that was shocked.
At the edge of the stone forest, they saw a "human" holding a metal spear and wearing damaged armor and clothes, fighting with the demons in the square...
