Chapter 212 Licker’s Debut
“Not long ago, we found that the emergency exit and the control system leading to the quarantine zone were all destroyed. Apart from that, even the communication system inside the research institute was disabled.”
“The emergency exit was destroyed and many mutated zombies rushed out of the quarantine zone. Now, the most important thing is to find a way to repair the safety valve and control the zombie corpses inside.”
Qin Shaofeng was very anxious. He strode toward the command centre in the fourth basement.
“The operator of the command centre activated the emergency leakage plan as soon as they found the anomaly, and released a special gas in the whole area.”
“This gas can neutralize the high concentration of virus gases leaked from the quarantine zone, but it’s very expensive to create, so the stock is limited. It can only last for 12 hours at most.”
“And Liu Keyi.”
At the thought of Liu Keyi, Qin Shaofeng’s eyes were full of anger and he clenched his fists so tightly that blue veins could be seen protruding on the surface of his skin.
“She lied to us. She told us that the Dark Knights want to cooperate with us and guard this dangerous area with us.”
“She cheated us of our trust.”
“Today, I saw Liu Keyi and wanted to talk to her, but then she went to the basement. She’s the one who did all of this!” “If I ever see her again, I will tear her apart!”
Lucia’s mood became heavier.
She looked at Fang Heng worriedly.
They had to repair the damaged emergency exit as soon as possible within 12 hours!
Otherwise, if the high concentration virus gases were to leak out…
Fang Heng instantly understood the whole situation.
Liu Keyi killed Bragg and also thought of a way to destroy the quarantine zone’s control system and safety valve. She had contributed to the destruction of this world.
However, Fang Heng was still very curious.
Why did the anti-federal organization want to destroy the world?
Why did they want to destroy Server 8?
What benefits would it bring them?
While he was thinking, Qin Shaofeng had already brought a few people to the fourth basement.
The sound of gunfire kept ringing out.
At the fork in the road ahead, Fang Heng saw a few members of the mercenary group wearing black combat uniforms trying their best to defend the passage. A dark horde of zombies surged out from the other end of the passage.
The members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group couldn’t hold on any longer. They used their submachine guns to suppress the zombies while slowly retreating toward the passage where Fang Heng and the others were at.
“Quick! Go help them!”
Seeing that his companions were in danger, Qin Shaofeng raised his submachine gun and stepped forward to support his team. Then, he fired at the dark horde of zombies at the end of the passage.
There were too many zombies!
Fang Heng’s eyes flickered. He stepped forward and pressed on Qin Shaofeng’s shoulder, “Step back, I’ll do it!”
Qin Shaofeng was stunned.
Then, he heard a sizzling sound.
The Lickers that were attached to the ceiling quickly climbed toward the dark group of zombies in front of them.
Lickers were natural predators!
They flew past the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group and charged into the zombie horde to start a crazy slaughter!
With Fang Heng’s strength attribute, the Lickers’ attack power had increased once again!
Their sharp claws could easily cut through the bodies of ordinary zombies.
Only a Tier 1 mutated zombie could barely withstand two or three of their attacks. Fang Heng’s game log immediately flooded the screen.
(Hint: Your Licker clone has killed an ordinary zombie. You have obtained 3 survival points, evolution crystal fragments*1.]
(Hint: Your Licker clone has killed a Tier 1 mutated zombie. You have gained 10 survival points.]
(Hint: Your Licker clone has killed a Tier 2 mutated zombie…]
The members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group who were fighting against the zombie horse were also stunned.
They saw a group of Lickers rushing toward them. They thought that they would die here today.
Who would have thought that the Lickers would attack the zombie horde?
The members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group were leaning against the wall, not daring to move. They did not even dare to breathe, afraid that the Lickers would suddenly turn around and attack them.
Deng Xin followed behind Lucia. Her scalp had turned numb.
It was completely different from killing the Tier 3 butcher zombie just now. The visual effect of this kind of direct killing was even more shocking to hear! The Lickers worked together to achieve an overwhelming crushing effect!
They charged into the zombie horde and began to slaughter wildly. Even ordinary Tier 1 zombies were completely unable to withstand the powerful damage output of these Lickers.
The Lickers fought their way through the passage, sending flesh and blood flying everywhere.
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint and pursed his lips.
Not bad!
As expected of the Lickers who were born to slaughter.
Even a Tyrant wouldn’t be able to kill so efficiently.
The ‘protection fee’ paid to the King of Gods was worth it!
“Quick! Retreat!”
Qin Shaofeng shouted, commanding the injured Crimson Blood Mercenary Group members to retreat to the safe passage.
Only then did the members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group realize that these Lickers were controlled by humans.
They still carefully returned. “Captain Qin.” “How’s the situation over there?”
He Chai, the team captain, panted heavily. “It’s bad. We can’t defend Area A anymore. The team suffered heavy casualties. We had no choice but to abandon Area A and start retreating.”
Hearing this terrible news, Qin Shaofeng clenched his fists.
What should they do!
The situation was getting worse very quickly!
“Area A can’t be defended anymore. A large number of zombies have invaded the underground research institute. There might be zombies everywhere in the passage.”
“If we don’t block the entrance in time, the command centre will fall.”
“Once the control panel of the command centre is damaged, or the backup power supply of the third basement is destroyed by the zombies… the entire quarantine zone will completely lose control. At that time, it will be over!”
Fang Heng stood beside Qin Shaofeng and said, “Don’t worry. It’s not that bad. The Lickers we control can still buy you some time.”
The Crimson Blood Mercenary Group had never seen anyone who could control a Licker.
They all turned to look at Fang Heng.
“This is Fang Heng and this is Lucia. They are all friends from the Dark Knights.”
“Thank you.”
(Hint: Your friendship with the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group has increased.]
Qin Shaofeng looked at the members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group. “The Commander is now in Area F. You guys go to Area F immediately to provide support. Report the situation in Area A to the Commander. The rest of the wounded follow me first!”
“Okay!”
Qin Shaofeng then said to Fang Heng, “Fang Heng, I’ll have to trouble you with this passage.” “Okay.”
Fang Heng stayed behind to control the four Lickers to guard the passage entrance and summon the rest of the Lickers back to his side.
“Let’s go to the main control room first!”
After taking a detour on the fourth basement, Fang Heng followed Qin Shaofeng into the command centre.
A large number of research personnel and engineers were gathered in front of the console.
They were arguing about something. The situation was bad. The emergency exit of the quarantine zone had been destroyed and a large number of zombies were pouring out of the passage. Qin Shaofeng’s arrival gave everyone hope.
A researcher asked first, “Qin Shaofeng, where’s Mr Bragg?”
Qin Shaofeng shook his head.
“He’s dead. He was murdered.”
The entire command centre fell into a dead silence.
