the only savior

Chapter 600 Behind the scenes laboratory (two in one)

"That is to say, this Sizar became like this because he came into contact with that stone fragment?"

Ciro also understood the key, knowing that this might not be the product of some so-called biological experiment.

Judging from the current situation, it was the hunter named Sizar who killed a seriously injured deformed monster through a trap not long ago.

However, what he didn't know was that there was a strange fragment inlaid on the body of that monster.

It was this fragment that made him what he is today.

At the beginning, Weiss thought that Cezar knew about the existence of this thing, but now it seems that the other party obviously didn't pay attention to it.

But thinking about it, according to that guy's personality, if he really knew that there was an "additional item" on the monster's body, he would definitely raise the price.

The next thing is very simple, a group of researchers who lost the stone fragments came here and wanted to retrieve the fragments.

But like Sizar, they were unintentionally affected by the fragments.

In the end, both sides were unable to resist this erosion, and turned into that kind of weird deformed monsters one after another.

"Then, we just need to find out the origins of those researchers and the location of their bases. The root of all this is likely to be there."

Weiss concluded.

When he said these words, he subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch his stubble.

As a result, seeing the blood on his hands, he stopped this habitual movement in time, secretly glad that it didn't get on his face.

"According to the diary, the approximate location of the research institute should be ten kilometers south of here... But this range is still a bit big, Mikel, can you think of a way to find the specific location there? "

Ciro on the side spoke first when he heard the words.

"Wes, why is it so troublesome, we just need to contact the Canglan Department directly, they are better at intelligence than us, just ask them to check for us."

Wes shook his head and said:
"No, our mission this time is not only an ordinary field work, but also our trial. It is better not to ask for assistance outside the field unless it is absolutely necessary."

After hearing this, the other two felt that what he said made sense, so they didn't get too entangled in this matter.

Now the local time is already three o'clock in the afternoon. If everyone goes to the south, they will definitely find it at night, which is not good for them.

After discussing it, they decided to go back first and leave early tomorrow morning, so as to take advantage of this time to collect intelligence information and deal with the injury by the way.

They went back to the small town of Hachitutur and told the villagers that the monster had been wiped out.

But these villagers did not believe their words.

The villagers believed that they were lying. Although they seemed to have fought, they did not produce any evidence to prove that they had killed the monster.

In this regard, everyone in the Wildfire Squad had absolutely no intention of explaining.

After all, the few people did not accept their entrusted tasks, let alone take their bounties, so there was no need to prove anything.

These people don't want to believe it now, and when they don't see the monster reappearing after a while, they will know it naturally.

At Eva's home, Mikel is using the satellite network to collect intelligence.

He started with Pansy's former employees and launched a follow-up investigation on them.

After making dozens of phone calls, Mikel claimed to be a headhunter and contacted those people, or their family members and friends, to determine their current situation.

The one who disappeared naturally became the first object of suspicion for a member of the secret laboratory.

In the end, through the mouths of his relatives and friends, Mikel learned that they had been poached by another mysterious company since the company went bankrupt, and they only came back occasionally.

To everyone's surprise, one of the researchers, Andyetu, secretly told his wife where he worked.

In this way, several people can know the specific location of the base directly through their wives, saving a lot of time in searching.

It's just that if you want to get this information from the other party, you need to pay a price.

But things that can be solved with money are not considered a problem.

……

The next day, early morning.

The members of the wildfire team set off from Hachitu Turcun early in the morning.

There is one more person in this operation, she is the guide this time, the wife of researcher Andyetu.

They first took Weiss's knight-class off-road vehicle to the target area, and finally stopped by a small river.

"The base where my husband is in the front, I will take you here, if you see him later, remember to help me give him this shawarma, he likes it very much..."

This woman still doesn't know that her husband may have turned into a terrifying monster.

Wes reached out and took the small box handed over by the other party, feeling heavy in his hand.

"You are not a headhunting company. Although I don't know the specific purpose of your finding here, please don't hurt Andyetu, okay. He is just an ordinary researcher, and he was forced to come here..."

"So, you already know that we are not from the headhunting company?"

Weiss was a little curious.

"Then you bring us here like this, aren't you afraid that we will hurt him?"

The woman smiled wryly and shook her head.

"I only found out after I met you. How can anyone from a headhunting company carry a load of weapons... But it was too late by then. I just hope you can let Andyetu go, he He is really a good man, if he did something, it must be forced by those people!"

"Oh? What kind of guys are you talking about?"

The woman shook her head and said:
"I don't know. They were all dressed in black, and they threatened Andyetu with a weapon as soon as they came in, asking him to join the laboratory and participate in some kind of research. Even if they had a chance to come back to see me halfway, there was always one with a gun. People follow to prevent him from escaping."

"I see……"

Weiss looked solemn, and felt that this base seemed to be more difficult to chew than imagined.

He hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't tell the truth of the matter to the poor woman in front of him.

He decided to hand over this task to Mikel, who was paralyzed.

Mikel was injured, his arm was still hanging, and he couldn't move with himself and others at all.

He will stay in the car later, so that he can take care of them and tell the woman in front of him about those monsters.

Anyway, he has facial paralysis, so it fits his personality for him to convey this kind of cruel news.

Thinking so, Weiss led Anna and Ciro to the base not far away.

They are fully armed and ready for battle.

Whether it's a human or a monster...

"Shhhhh..."

The river flows and murmurs.

Near Hurghada, the environment is relatively good, the phenomenon of desertification is not serious, and it is not uncommon to have forests and small rivers.

In the forest, tropical birds sang cheerfully, surrounded by mist, which outlined a beautiful morning picture.

The creek is not big, and its depth only reaches the waists of a few people.

It is not so much a river as it is just a larger stream.

"what!"

A scream suddenly sounded, Weiss was taken aback, and turned his head quickly, only to see Ciro hugging his thigh and howling.

Below him, blood flowed out, staining the nearby waters red.

"Shet! Help me! There's something in the water!"

Wes didn't dare to hesitate, seeing a black shadow under him, he immediately pulled the trigger.

"Da da da da!"

Several gunshots sounded, and his burst obviously hit the target.

But following the movement here, there are more shadows.

"Go back quickly!"

With a loud roar, Dang even rushed over to support Shiro to retreat backward.

Fortunately, the three of them had just entered the river, and they had not gone far, and soon returned to the shore.

"Damn it, what the hell is this!"

Ciro looked pained, and there was still a dead monster's body hanging on his calf.

It was a creature that looked exactly like a catfish.

However, unlike ordinary fish, it actually has gecko-like claws and black scales, and its overall shape looks like a salamander.

At this time, the monster was already dead, but its mouth was still biting Shiro's calf, refusing to let go.

Wes and Anna helped him into the car, then found tools to pry open the monster's mouth, and threw the body aside.

"Damn it, it's a mutant again! I asked why there are so many rocks in the river. It turned out that they were all of these kinds of things. We have to find another way to get there."

"Or, let me blow it up."

While talking, Anna helped Ciro bandage the wound.

"No, this kind of movement is too loud, and it is easy to attract the attention of the other side."

Wes shook his head, vetoing the proposal.

Ciro on the side was full of grief, and shouted:

"The poet is dying at the top of his voice, and he should use the Lehman towel if he tastes shit!"

Anna's face darkened when she heard this, and she slapped his calf, causing him to let out a series of miserable howls.

"What's the hoarse voice? It's obvious that he died before he was able to win the battle. It made the hero burst into tears. Can you stop talking nonsense, Xi Luo?"

The quote they quoted was all spoken in Chinese.

After joining the Star Alliance, several people practiced Chinese from time to time in order to facilitate communication with other people, and even took time to join a crash course in adult Chinese.

Seeing Ciro's appearance, Wes knew that he should be fine.

It's just that in this case, he must not be able to participate in the action, which is exactly what the other party said.

"Wes, you and Anna are the only ones left now, or let's retreat first this time, and act together when Mikel and I recover from our injuries."

Siro suggested.

Anna on the side heard the words and said mercilessly:

"No, since we're here, let's at least go over and take a look and make a good intelligence mark. And you don't know if your leg is injured or not. If you become disabled, we still have one less person."

Shiro's eyes froze.

"Anna, how can you curse me like this!"

"I didn't, let me tell you the truth!"

Weiss frowned and thought for a while, then interrupted:
"Okay, I think what Anna said is right, we need to at least check the situation, and we must not just return empty-handed... I just checked, this river is not deep, we can definitely drive across, so that the people inside Monsters can't do anything to us."

"Hey, Wes, are you willing to let your wife take this muddy water? It's beyond my expectation."

Shiro looked at him in surprise.

Wes gave him a blank look.

"Stop talking nonsense, we'll set off after you've bandaged up, and then you have to hold on tight, so you don't break your leg again."

Soon, the time came 10 minutes later.

Wes did it with a few people, then kicked the accelerator, and drove his car straight towards the creek.

It has to be said that the performance of the knight-class off-road vehicle is powerful.

The deepest part of the river was completely full of tires, but it drove straight through without stopping.

There were quite a few bumps along the way, and it was accompanied by the sense of sluggishness of crushing monsters from time to time, which shocked everyone.

The number of mutant beasts in this river is really unexpected.

Fortunately, the off-road vehicle was strong enough, and they crossed the small river smoothly.

"Siro, you stay here, pay attention to the surrounding situation, and call us immediately if there is any abnormality."

Weiss took care of him, and then set off with Anna to the base not far away.

Be careful along the way, for fear of encountering any mutant beasts or traps, the two walked through the dense bushes to the place the wife had mentioned.

"This, is this the base for studying mutant beasts..."

The moment she pushed aside the grass, Anna couldn't help but let out a voice full of doubts.

What I saw before my eyes was far from what I imagined.

There are no high-tech buildings, no gates hidden among the mountains, and no guards with live ammunition.

As far as the eye can see, there are only a mess of wooden houses and a few rotting and smelly corpses.

"How could this be? Did we come to the wrong place?"

Anna was puzzled.

No wonder she reacted that way.

The building complex surrounded by several wooden houses that I saw in front of me did not match the laboratory at all from the outside, but looked more like an unknown small village.

"No, we didn't make a mistake. Look at the corpses, they are all wearing the clothes of the Pansy Research Institute. There are also those iron cages, which show signs of breaking free. Some creatures should have been locked inside."

"These wooden houses are also the same. Although the outside is made of wood, it can be seen that some of the rooms are reinforced with composite materials."

Wes squinted his eyes at the scene in front of him and gave the answer.

"According to the information, the Pansy Research Institute was not disbanded immediately after it closed down, but was purchased privately by a mysterious person. The time until now is only a short three months."

"Three months, and experiments are also taken into account. They don't have time to build any high-tech laboratories. It is already very good to find such a secret place. From this, it can be seen that they are actually just a simple and temporary laboratory. research base."

Anna also understood.

Weiss is right, to do experiments, you don't have to be full of dazzling high-tech equipment like in the movie.

If the conditions do not permit, they can only rely on these wooden houses in the early stage to make do with it.
