Chapter 398: The Tragedy Outside Base No. 5
"Base No. 5 is in danger?"
Colin was stunned for a moment, until half a second later, he suddenly came to his senses and quickly said:
"What happened? Do you need me to provide reinforcements?"
As he spoke, Colin glanced at the elementary school student lying on the ground and realized that things might not be simple.
The attack on Base No. 5 made him feel like his home had been robbed.
"Yes, although I am also in a hurry, but not that fast. If you have time, I hope to ask for your assistance. As for the situation of Base No. 5, I am not very clear at the moment. I only know that it may be that the abnormal containment accidentally got out of control..." Xuanyi Jin's voice was very fast.
Then the call was hung up.
"Mr. Colin, is there anything urgent?" Hu Zheng asked.
He saw Colin's expression change several times, and with the powerful inspiration of "predicting fate", he realized that something bad might happen...
"Well, there's something going on at Base No. 5. I need to go there right away. You guys handle the situation here. Xia Liufang is outside and will be in soon..."
With Xia Liufang's follow-up support, there shouldn't be any major problems here.
After a brief explanation and without further ado, Colin was ready to take action. However, before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and took out his cell phone from his pocket to call Mr. Wu.
Although Xu Xuanjin can be regarded as Mr. Wu's spokesperson, it is best to be more careful at this time to make sure.
Especially after being inexplicably tricked into the "Seventh Box World" last time, Colin has become very vigilant in this regard.
As for this account, Colin had talked about it with Mr. Wu before. The contact information was given by him personally. As long as he was not definitely dead, there was no need to worry about the person who replied was not him.
Because as long as he is on earth, no one can impersonate him...
The call was hung up after a few seconds.
Then, Mr. Wu, who had a black tower avatar, sent a message: "You can go, but don't pursue them too deeply."
“1.”
After a brief response, Colin felt relieved and flew away quickly in the air like a comet.
Amid the rumbling sound, even with the effect of the Emblem of Humility, many people still noticed it because the noise was too loud.
"what happened?!"
"Are the enemies from the other side of the sea attacking us?!"
"It's a missile! Quick, find cover, hide in cover!"
“…”
Without paying attention to what was below him, Colin continued to speed up, causing cracks to appear on some of the windows on the higher floors.
However, compared with the possible decline in the index caused by extraordinary exposure, it is better to reach Base No. 5 as soon as possible.
This is an extremely important facility. If there is a problem, the impact will be greater than if he hastily exposed it.
"I remember that there was at least one extremely powerful level eight personnel guarding Base No. 5. With the blessing of various things in the territory, it was almost the same as in various fields. But in this case, they were able to suddenly attack it, which means that the enemy is also extremely powerful..."
"Before the attack, the sudden accident on Qin Chuan and Hu Zheng's side seemed a bit deliberate. Now that I think about it, the distance has indeed been pulled away..."
"From this point of view, it should be premeditated, rather than an accidental loss of control."
As the thought flashed through his mind, Colin didn't dare to be careless anymore and stacked all the buffs he could in mid-air.
Before long, he was looking at the scene in the distance, feeling a little depressed.
Although there was still quite a distance between them, he could already smell the unusually active "smells" coming from the direction of the huge base...
…
At the same time, in a containment unit at Base 5.
With a bang, an official suddenly fell to the ground, his face was grim, he was foaming at the mouth, and he was twitching continuously.
It's like an epileptic seizure...
However, what was even more terrifying than epilepsy was that after convulsing for just a few seconds, he exploded into a pool of blood on the spot.
The blood slowly flows forward...
There, stood a gray stone statue entangled in many chains.
The statue is in the shape of a cabbage wrapped in dozens of pitch-black wings. In the center of the "cabbage", there is a tongue with eyeballs that is restlessly licking the blood on the ground.
It seems like it wants to lick the blood immediately...
Seeing this, a level 6 official had to shout again to remind the dozens of people on the scene:
"Keep your eyes on it, don't look away! Otherwise it will attack you directly!"
Although the statue is only one meter high and not very big, and can even be considered as medium to low risk when assessing the danger level, it makes the people present feel like they are facing a great enemy.
Under normal circumstances, they just need to keep staring at it and retreat, and they will be safe once they retreat one thousand meters away.
But now, many abnormalities have suddenly erupted in Base No. 5, and if they withdraw, it may not be better than here.
After all, they themselves released this anomaly...
The purpose is to prevent other uncontrolled things from sneaking into this containment unit and destroying the seal inside.
As for what was happening outside this containment room, they had no time to care.
Anyway, no matter what the cost, they must guard this containment unit. Once it is destroyed, many anomalies that have just been transported and have not yet been further sealed will erupt...
By then, the core of Base No. 5 might be fine, but everyone in this outer area will surely die!
"Hold on, we..."
The level six personnel was about to say a few words to motivate everyone, but the next second, he and everyone present suddenly felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and noticed that the picture in front of them had darkened.
The place became inexplicably damp, and countless mold spots grew on the surrounding walls.
Snap, snap…
The sticky sound of footsteps, as if walking on water, came step by step, from far away to near.
As it approached, an extremely strong stench began to emerge in the air, like the disgusting smell of flesh and blood that had been left to rot in the refrigerator for more than ten days before being discovered.
A light mist began to appear in the already humid space.
In the mist, there were ghost-like figures floating around...
"No way, this can't be, Director Chen..." An employee was staring at the statue when he noticed the unusual movement in the air and immediately realized something.
"Damn it, controlling ghosts, mold corruption, this ability..."
The level 6 personnel knew what the other party meant. This ability was only possessed by his "super-hitting" leader who was already at the level 7.
Sure enough, this time, a figure suddenly walked out from the door.
A figure with severely decayed skin and flesh.
His skin had disappeared, revealing his white bones, but strangely, his internal organs were still in place and kept moving, as if they were still functioning normally...
"The leader is out of control..." The level 6 personnel were suddenly shocked when they saw this.
Just now, the leader left alone to lead away some extremely troublesome anomalies. I didn't expect that he would be like this less than ten minutes after seeing him again...
"vomit……"
Several civilian staff who had fled here finally couldn't help themselves and began to vomit while looking away.
They are not frontline combat members and their psychological endurance is not that strong.
But before they could spit out anything, their bodies suddenly stiffened, their faces twisted extremely, as if they had seen something terrible. Then, they all died suddenly, and their blood flowed towards the stone statue...
The Level 6 personnel had no time to care about these things and could only look at the statue and pray while the leader quickly left.
However, what made them all despair was that the highly decayed figure did not walk directly through the door of the containment unit, but slowly turned around at the gate, staggering towards them while muttering to himself:
"Hold on, protect, hold on, protect..."
Driven by instinct, it walked into the containment unit.
“Damn it…” The Level 6 personnel cursed inwardly, knowing that the worst had happened.
Although he guessed from the vague whispers that the leader must have returned here out of a strong sense of duty when he died, this did not mean it was a good thing...
Upon arrival, it directly encounters the cabbage-shaped wing sculpture.
On the wet ground, pale arms stretched out and grabbed the statue, while the wronged souls condensed in the mist in the air also launched an attack...
Its targets are not only statues, but also other people.
"Prepare for battle! We must hold out here for as long as we can! Remember, when fighting, you must keep your eyes on the statue, and keep your eyes on the statue first..."
The Level 6 personnel gritted his teeth and raised his own big knife.
A shadow that looked like an ancient warrior slowly emerged behind him.
Whether it was the statue or his former leader, they were both large-scale attack methods. If they were dealt with one alone, it might be fine, but now two of them were combined...
They may not be able to defeat each other in a short time, but others will suffer.
The Level 6 personnel stared at the statue while chopping off the arms at its feet.
However, he didn't hold on for long before a red light flashed and the phantom on his body collapsed...
"Oh no, something else came in..."
The level 6 personnel was stunned, then looked desperate, and saw a strange scarecrow that had run in here at some point and locked onto him and launched an attack.
Moreover, when their eyes met, an extremely terrifying palpitation came over me...
He triggered the statue's attack pattern!
"It's over..."
In an instant, the surroundings became pitch black, and countless terrifying creatures seemed to be swallowing him up.
However, just when he thought he was finished.
The strange and terrifying atmosphere exploded...
"What happened?" The Level 6 personnel and several official members were confused.
They could feel that something was coming. Before it even got close, its aura had already arrived, and it actually shook away the deadly dark atmosphere just now...
Before they could think about it, they suddenly saw that the ceiling above the containment unit suddenly turned red and melted.
In less than a second, a flame poured into the place from the cave entrance.
A figure covered in flames fell directly to the place and hit the out-of-control level 7 personnel directly.
Just for a moment...
They saw their leader carbonized and turned into ashes in an instant.
"This... is this support coming? Who is this? Which level 8 personnel has arrived..."
Everyone was delighted, as this kind of power display could only be achieved by an eighth-level person!
However, before they could continue to ponder, Colin looked around the scene, raised his chin slightly, and looked at the level 6 personnel: "What happened here?"
Hearing the question, the Level 6 personnel just opened his mouth and felt his scalp go numb. He shouted to Colin: "Be careful! It has absorbed too much blood and entered the second stage!"
All the wings of the gray cabbage statue covered in flames suddenly came to life, and countless wings flew towards Colin, as if they wanted to swallow him up...
Although the threat level of this thing is medium, which is not too high, its terror level is not low at all.
Many things that pose a higher threat will be suppressed by it!
Even if they are level 8 personnel, if they are involved...
However, the next second, he saw an even more incredible scene...
The "Level 8 Personnel" faced this fatal attack with a calm look, then raised a fist in a normal manner, aiming at the countless wings that were covering him...
There are no fancy abilities, just simple and pure punches.
The image of Colin's bloody arm flashed through their minds.
However……
"boom!"
Amidst the deafening explosion, countless wings exploded and feathers flew.
The statue itself seemed to be engulfed by a huge force, embedding more than three-quarters into the steel wall.
The vibrations echoed throughout the containment unit...
"Try looking at me again."
Colin looked at the statue, staring at the eyeball on the tongue in the center of it, spoke calmly and raised his fist again.
As soon as the words fell, the wriggling tongue with eyeballs retracted into the stone statue...
"hiss."
At this moment, everyone present seemed to have just come to their senses and couldn't help but gasp.
This is the first time I have seen such a simple and crude sealing method.
"Now, tell me what happened here." Colin turned his head and looked at the level six personnel.
Soon, he roughly understood some of the situation from the Level 6 personnel...
About an hour ago, some of the objects being transported into the base suddenly broke through the seal, and then a riot broke out. They had no idea what happened inside, but they knew that this loss of control was most likely not an accident.
Because they seemed to see the alarm sounding, indicating that someone had broken in...
And the most important thing is that the level 8 personnel inside have not shown up yet, and no one knows what happened.
At present, the situation inside Base 5 is unclear, but a considerable part of the outside area, especially the G area where they are located, can almost be described as fallen. It has been confirmed that at least one senior personnel has died...
"There's not a lot of useful intelligence..."
Colin nodded and said, "You just stay here, other help will arrive soon."
After saying that, he walked quickly inside without waiting for a response...
The flames on his body surged in all directions like a walking fire, but humans covered by the flames would not only not be affected, but would also be able to receive a certain degree of protection.
Many other low-level anomalies were either destroyed or returned to a contained and sealed state.
With the flame perception I just learned...
Colin quickly found where the problem seemed to occur.
A few dozen seconds later, he walked into a place that looked like a slaughterhouse. All the guards on duty here were killed, and their limbs were mutilated and scattered all over the area.
"Not a single one is alive..."
Colin walked slowly in the corridor covered with blood, where there was almost no place to stand, while looking at the corpses that died in a miserable state.
The direction they were facing when they died was forward, as if they were fighting something.
But unfortunately, due to the huge gap in strength, the ending was not very good...
Colin did not interfere and cremate them. After walking for a while, he stopped in front of a cave.
The dark entrance of the cave was about one person tall, like a large rat hole, sloping downward, with no idea where it led to.
A frightening aura emanated from it...
When Colin saw the cave entrance, he was silent for a moment, because he was not unfamiliar with it.
I had seen a similar "rat hole" in the Hague shelter in the "Seventh 'Box World'" -
Sure enough, it is related to the thing that escaped?
"Alas, it's still a step too late ..."
A sigh sounded in Colin's ears.
Colin turned his head and saw many golden figures appearing not far from him.
"What's the situation with the level 8 personnel at Base 5?" Ke Lin asked. He did not enter the core area of Base 5 because he did not feel there was any problem there...
"I'm stuck, but I think it should be okay."
Xuanyun Jin glanced around and saw the corpses, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
Although this raid did not penetrate the core area, it caused heavy losses to the people on the periphery.
Taking a deep breath, Xuanyi suppressed the anger in his heart: "I will recreate what happened here and see what the purpose of this group of people is..."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and a large amount of pitch-black threads floated out from his body.
Then, these dark threads outlined human figures, recreating what happened here like a movie.
“…”
