A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

The two looked at each other, and when they were about to return to the monitoring room, they suddenly felt a pain in the back of their head, and fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Coming out from the shadow of the corner, two death walkers in tights pulled the two soldiers back, and then they did not forget to make an "OK" gesture under the surveillance camera.

The vampire who pretended to be someone else in the monitoring room turned on the radio again, and first imitated the voice of A-2 and said: "Monitoring room, monitoring room, the solder joints on the side door have fallen off, and dust is blown in from the gap by the wind. The suspicious object is actually a monitoring room." Gray stains on the camera lens. In addition, the camera may be damaged, and there may be blank segments in the video, please contact the operation and maintenance personnel to come to repair, and the combat personnel to come to search.”

After saying this, he hung up the radio again, grabbed the microphone and changed his voice: "The monitoring room understands, the monitoring room understands, please guard the door. Lieutenant, the side door needs support."

"Understood. I'll take someone there myself. Over."

After a while, the lieutenant's voice sounded on the radio.

At the side door, two soldiers in uniform stood with their guns in hand, as if guarding the left and right; but for some reason, both heads were bowed, and their faces were hidden in the shadow of the brims of their hats.

As soon as the lieutenant arrived at the scene with two soldiers and a few operation and maintenance personnel, he was annoyed by these two men.

"What are you doing with your head down, where is the solder joint open?"

The lieutenant cursed, and was pushing away his unrepentant subordinates. When he walked forward, he suddenly heard the sound of a gun being loaded from the back of his head.

"Lieutenant, please don't move or scream...or we'll have to use a dead man's iris to open the door."

The vampire with the gun looked up and whispered in his ear.

The other vampire has also exposed its fangs and sharp claws, violently attacking, before the support team had time to react, it quickly stunned them, disarmed everyone, and stripped off their uniforms , tied them up with the previous two people.

Wearing a gas mask and gray protective clothing, Selene, who looked like a hairy owl, tore open the side door, walked in from the outside, looked around, and asked in a muffled voice: "Is there any problem? "

"No problem, you can change clothes now."

Another death walker standing nearby answered her.

The above-ground part of this laboratory is completely for deception. The real core facilities are all located underground... The lieutenant himself and the operation and maintenance personnel of the monitoring system usually stay in the underground floor. Don't trick them out, Deathwalker The team couldn't open the heavily sealed basement door.

The death walkers have already started to put on the uniforms and firearms of these personnel. Only Selene can't disguise herself-she is not tall and slender, so she can't look like the guard team here.

But she just needs to wait here, and soon the death walkers will empty the first floor, take the lieutenant, pretend to capture another vampire, and take her underground.

This is all a strategy that Amelia came up with. Selene still remembers her original words: "Information, death walker, and information difference is the greatest tactical advantage. During the entire assault, you must command this team Try to maintain a state of information asymmetry, only then can we hope to rush to Marcus and William at the least cost."

Therefore, replacing the people in the monitoring room with our own people is the core part of this plan.

In order to confuse the security personnel on the next floor, the vampire kept reporting the fake situation on the radio, which made the lieutenant look ashamed.

"Okay... let's go."

Soon, after controlling all the fighters on the first floor, Selene followed the lieutenant to the sealed door leading to the next floor.

The airtight door here is similar to that of a bank vault. It is made of dozens or even hundreds of tons of metal. The outer walls of the entire underground facility are also sealed with thick concrete, except for the communication cables and the ventilation ducts where the exit is unknown. Outside, it is almost completely isolated from the outside world.

I don't know when this tradition of putting secret research institutions underground began, but I have to say that doing so is really convenient for controlling access to personnel and keeping secrets.

If it weren't for holding the lieutenant's spine with his fingers, a group of vampires would definitely not be able to get in no matter what.

The person in the monitoring room still imitated his voice on the radio and said: "The vampire trying to break into the facility has been captured, and it is now transferred to the laboratory."

The underground personnel responded: "Understood, prepare for the control procedure."

With a rumbling sound, the heavy airtight door was pushed open, and the people inside saw the pale lieutenant, who was about to say hello, but realized something was wrong.

"……Have--"

Before he could finish speaking, Selene crushed the lieutenant's spine, rushed up when he fell to the ground with a thud, and slashed the throat of the person who opened the door.

It seems that information gap tactics can only go so far.

"Put down the EMP, cut off the power! Change to the Storm Pulse Rifle, break in!"

she shouted, rushing in first.

A power outage is devastating to any underground facility. No light is the next best thing. What is more serious is that the ventilation system will stop completely. The temperature, oxygen content, and pollution in the facility will quickly become unbearable. It may even endanger human life.

Fortunately, the team that broke into the facility were all vampires...the kind of creatures that could not die even if they were buried underground for hundreds of thousands of years.

Even in a dark environment, with dark vision, they can grasp the surrounding situation, and attack the center of the facility without affecting their combat power!

The lethality of the storm pulse rifle far exceeds any individual weapon that the defense forces in the underground facilities can equip.

Of course, it is impossible to carry rocket launchers and individual missiles to guard the underground laboratory. Isn't it tantamount to suicide to use weapons of mass destruction in this terrain?

Selene's team grabbed the hat on her head and threw it aside, revealing the head and face wrapped in ultraviolet protective material, staring silently ahead behind the dark goggles, and followed her into the darkness of the underground.

Chapter 24 Laboratory

After the communication was cut off, the laboratory in the Islington area was temporarily unable to contact the outside world, which naturally delayed the time for the British army to learn of the accident and come here to rescue.

However, this delay cannot last long.

Ever since the electronic communication system was invented, there has been a "confirmation signal" in military wireless communication... that is, even if the person holding the communication device does not reply, an automatic verification signal will be sent to the communication center at regular intervals, indicating that Mechanisms where you are still online.

Later, with GPS and other positioning systems, the confirmation signal between the individual electronic equipment and the communication center is no longer necessary.Because "positioning" itself is a continuous communication process, if the positioning device is disconnected from the communication satellite, it proves that something happened where the signal disappeared, either the person died or the device was lost.

However, the "confirmation signals" in certain areas were retained as a means of confirming the situation on the spot.

Of course, the institution that studies Marcus and William also has a "confirmation signal" mechanism.

No matter how slow the response of the British was, they should have sent troops in half an hour.

Although Amelia has already hired a backhand, no matter what kind of backhand it is, it is obviously impossible to completely eliminate the military power of a country... Selene and the death walkers must attack the core area within half an hour , and then withdraw quickly.

Selene, who rushed into the ground, didn't care about the people around her. Most of them were researchers. As long as she squatted there and didn't move, she wouldn't have any interest in dealing with them.

Her targets are only Marcus and William...

"Squat down and don't move! Squat down and don't move!"

The death walkers behind them yelled, and the researcher who heard these words squatted or even lay down on the ground in a hurry, for fear of being accidentally injured.

Speaking of which, the confidentiality level of this research institution is also very high, and the British high-level officials attach great importance to it. Of course, it is not ordinary people who can rush in here... When gods fight, mortals are best to stay away.

There are still some soldiers stationed in the underground facility, but they often lose their upper body after the sound of "嗙!——嗙" before rushing out.

They are not like vampires, they can only rush out after turning on the flashlight at the muzzle, and they have become targets before they can shoot.

Under the leadership of Selene, the team quickly advanced to the depths of the underground facility.There was no problem with the map Amelia got, and several people arrived at the so-called "core laboratory" without even encountering too much resistance.

"Look at the back and don't let anyone in."

Selene ordered and stepped into the laboratory.

Surrounded by something like an operating table, the needles, tapes, test tubes, scalpels, microscopes, etc. on it are clearly visible in her dark vision.

In the center of the laboratory, stands a huge steel frame.Of course, that thing might not be made of steel. After all, how could steel shackles trap Marcus and William?

The metal frame is a solid triangular cone. If the angle is not too steep, it still looks like a pyramid.Marcus, who had turned back into a human form, was tied up on a triangular cone, and thick metal rings were fixed with thick bolts on the joints of his limbs, neck, and waist; a drainage tube was fixed on his arm, and the red blood was flowing Flowing slowly from the arteries in his arms.

Not far behind him, there was another triangle... Judging from the thick shape, it was the werewolf William who was tied to it.

Selene couldn't think of anything else to say except pity.

She lifted the gas mask to the top of her head, pulled out the magazine full of ultraviolet bullets from the back of her waist, pressed it into the gun in her hand, loaded it, and approached Marcus with the gun raised.

As soon as he got closer, he heard Marcus on the metal frame snort, and gradually opened his eyes.

"...It's you, Deathwalker."

He said.

"...don't you want to sleep?" Selene asked.

Marcus sneered and replied: "You guys have made such a big commotion, even the dead should wake up. Really, you have dismantled the blood race and destroyed our accumulation for hundreds of years." Yu once killed Victor and came after me... How persistent is it? Damn Victor, why didn't he kill you too?"

"You should be thankful that he didn't do this, otherwise your brother must still be in prison."

"So now both of us are locked up, are you satisfied?"

Marcus smiled. Although the radioactive substances in his blood had been filtered out, he was already extremely weak after having his blood drawn for a long time, and even speaking seemed weak at this moment.

Selene pursed her lips, and was about to take something out of her bag, and said, "Then I'll relieve your pain."

"I don't think it's too painful, but William...William has lost his intelligence since the beginning, and has become a pure beast. And the old man, tsk, why does the old man insist on passing these things on to us? what!"

Marcus said that it can be seen that his personality is extremely unstable compared with Victor and Amelia, and he doesn't even look like an "elder" at all.

Although he can be regarded as the ancestor of all vampires, he seems to be more inclined to the "wild" side.

Selene was attracted by what he said, and asked, "Old man? Who?"

Marcus didn't mean to answer, just said: "...you will understand when you suck the blood of both of us. Don't make me wait too long."

"I'm not going to suck your blood...I have something better, and I want you to try it."

While speaking, Selene lowered her head, put away her gun, and pulled out two tubes of medicine from the protective suit.This is the "gene reduction potion" she obtained from Barbaria's universe. According to her, it can repair gene mutations; if it is used on vampires and werewolves, can they be turned back into humans?

This is a laboratory, and all kinds of equipment are readily available.

She picked up the syringe from the side, filled it with medicine, and didn't speak anymore, but directly raised her hand, and slammed the needle into Marcus's carotid artery.

"Ah! Ahaha! Damn, it's so uncomfortable!"

Marcus yelled, but immediately felt a tingling sensation spread from the wound on his neck, flowing along the blood vessels to his whole body.This pain-like but not-so-painful, itchy-like and not-so-itchy feeling made him twist his body impatiently, his long canine teeth popped out, and blue veins stood out on his face and neck.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Within a few seconds, he felt that the power in his blood was rapidly disappearing, and he couldn't help screaming in fear.

Although he has been complaining, for hundreds of years, he has enjoyed the superiority of being a predator.Except for William, no one in this world can match him in terms of individual combat power. When he was in power last time as an elder, he could still do whatever he wanted.

Why does it seem like... this power is about to be taken away?

Then would he himself be like a mortal, injured, sick, and dead, and finally turned into a pile of meaningless ashes?

Selene looked up at his expression, and her face gradually became serious.

It seemed that the potion was really effective... In the blood drained from his body, the power that she was extremely familiar with was rapidly disappearing.

As the most powerful vampire in the world, Marcus would have brought a very dangerous feeling to the death walkers who were also blood clans. During his reign, the vampires in the castle would feel as if they were beasts when they walked in front of him. The illusion of staring; but now his canine teeth are shrinking, and the vitality of the whole person is also becoming weak.

But before she walked over to take a closer look, there was a sudden "bang" from the back of the laboratory, followed by an earth-shattering roar.

"...William?!"

When she thought about it, she turned her head suddenly, only to see a sharp claw about the width of her waist whistling over from mid-air with the sound of the wind, and it slammed on her shoulder with a "slap", sending her flying horizontally. Get out and almost hit the concrete wall on one side.

A werewolf six to seven times as tall as hers opened its arms, its red eyes roared deafeningly in this direction.

One of its wrists seemed to be broken, hanging down in an unnatural way, and the other arm that had just attacked Selene was also trembling slightly.

"……shot!"

Selene felt cold, turned her head back, and shouted to the team at the door of the laboratory.

The death walkers also reacted, rushed into the laboratory, raised their storm pulse rifles, and fired a few shots at the incomprehensibly big werewolf.It's a pity that these high-speed projectiles, which are enough to smash a human into two, didn't even penetrate its fur and muscles. It just made it take a few steps back, howled a few times, and then let out an even more angry roar.

"Change to silver-plated bullets! Change to silver-plated bullets!"

shouted Selene, and was the first to pull out the silver-plated bullets from the belt, switched the magazine of the pistol, and poured all the bullets on the werewolf with a bang.

After changing the corresponding bullets, William the werewolf really started to suffer more serious injuries.

It seemed to be completely controlled by animal nature, it suddenly turned its head, stretched out its claws and broke the metal shackles that trapped his brother Marcus.

Cutting off the power to the base not only affected humans... It also made the electrified metal stakes lose their strong magnetism and made the locks on them more fragile, which is why William was able to break free so quickly just now.

I saw him holding his brother in his hand, turned his head and let out a low growl from his chest as if in protest, and then suddenly rushed towards the back of the laboratory.

Selene and the death walker team quickly chased after them, only to see that the tens of centimeters thick concrete wall was completely torn apart, the steel bars on the section were twisted like twists, and only a circle with a diameter of several meters was left in the soil. Hole.

Although William, the ancestor of the werewolf, did not have the ability to transform like Lucian, his strong body, which seemed to come straight out of a wild myth, was really shocking.

[66. No. 66]

Selene touched another bottle of gene restoration potion in her bosom, her expression changed, and she reached out to put the gas mask on her face again.

"We chase..."

she says.

Chapter 25 Perception

"Assemble! Assemble! Give you 5 minutes to organize your equipment, and assemble on the landing pad in 5 minutes!"

In a military camp not far from Islington, soldiers were urging them to move quickly.

A few minutes ago, an urgent message came from the headquarters that the secret laboratory code-named "Bat" was raided and contact has been lost.

As soldiers, they shouldn't have known what the secret laboratory was researching and who had raided it, but the situation in this military camp is special.
