Chapter 21: On the Train
(To congratulate the list, we would like to express our gratitude to all the enthusiastic book enthusiasts.)
The elevator stopped with a "ding" sound, and Wang Zongchao seemed to have heard the most beautiful sound in the world, so he dodged and rushed out.
The elevator door closed behind Wang Zongchao, restoring the appearance of a white wall. In front of me was the ordinary laboratory, and the zombie whose entire head had been pulled out by Wang Zongchao was still lying down. Alice had disappeared without a trace, indicating that the beautiful woman still knew the importance and urgency. She should have escaped from the hive by now. And at some point, two zombies were wandering in the laboratory. When they saw Wang Zongchao appear, they reached out and walked towards him, swaying and swaying.
Wang Zongchao didn't even glance at them, but instead swept them like garbage, raising his leg to sweep flat. The mournful sound of breaking through the air was like a big axe sweeping past, shattering the skulls of two zombies and breaking their cervical vertebrae, lying down horizontally like two bundles of straw.
Compared to the creatures such as octopuses, Bimons, strange insects, spiders, etc. in PANDORASBOX's artificial forest, zombies are like a group of obedient babies who can't retaliate or fight back. With no worries about being infected with the T virus, Wang Zongchao dares to say that if he takes some time now, all the zombies in the entire hive can be easily eliminated.
Congratulations, it seems that you have defeated the T virus and truly evolved. "At this moment, a crisp little girl's voice came, which was none other than the Flame Queen.
Alice, how are my companions now? "Wang Zongchao suddenly interrupted the Flame Queen.
Alice has already escaped from the hive under my guidance, and your other three companions have also escaped one step ahead of her. As for the five people who stayed in my control room, I don't know where they went
Obviously, Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie must have returned to the main god space mentioned by Zhang Jie at the time when I temporarily lost my self-awareness due to the erosion of the T virus. "Upon hearing this, Wang Zongchao understood the situation and immediately set off, running back and forth.
The journey was surprisingly smooth. Due to a thorough "clean-up" upon arrival, the scattered and slow-moving zombies were unable to even encircle Wang Zongchao and slightly hinder his progress. Wang Zongchao was racing against time and had no intention of killing more zombies.
Running all the way to the platform, Wang Zongchao found that besides increasing his strength by 45%, his endurance was also very strange. He ran all the way, even up a long flight of stairs, without feeling any physical decline.
There is still a tram left on the platform. Wang Zongchao started the tram and it began to smoothly head towards the exit.
But he didn't know that just about half an hour after he left, in the laboratory where he set off, cracks suddenly spread all over the wall of the PANDORASBOX entrance, and the steel and cement broke and shattered one after another.
Roar
Just like a demon in hell breaking free from its shackles, tearing open the earth and entering the human world, a ferocious long claw that emitted a dazzling cold light like a scythe of death broke through the wall and stretched out. Then, in a chilling sound of steel friction and tearing, a huge monster with a layer of metallic keratin skin and bulging muscles on its thick limbs like rocks, full of explosive power, emerged from the collapsed wall
The tram was speeding towards its destination under the autonomous driving system, while Wang Zongchao sat with his eyes closed like an old monk meditating. Although he is currently in excellent condition after being modified by the T virus, he has been struggling for a long time and the situation ahead is unclear. Accumulating a little more energy and spirit is also good.
Suddenly, Wang Zongchao opened his eyes, and a bright light flashed in his pitch black eyes. He stared fixedly at the top of the carriage, and the person also started to fight.
Although the tram was running fast and shaking from time to time, Wang Zongchao stood as steady as a mountain, just like standing on the flat ground. The tremor of the tram could not even be transmitted to him, and was resolved by his slight muscle movement.
Click! Amidst the sharp sound of metal friction, Wang Zongchao stared at the top of the carriage, which was diagonally torn apart by a hole the size of a basketball. At the rolling point of the steel plate of the carriage, which was over 2CM thick, a strange long arm with exposed muscles penetrated in. At the end of this long arm, like a giant python, were sharp claws with five fingers gathered together like a cone.
As soon as the claws reached into the carriage, they opened up like an umbrella, and the entire arm hugged the area at a rather strange angle. Five spear like claws traced a trail of sparks on the inner wall and floor of the carriage, leaving thrilling scratches before quickly retracting and disappearing.
Wang Zongchao snorted and suddenly moved, raising his palm to slap the large bundle of steel pipes hanging in the carriage. The tremendous force caused the thick rope that tied the steel pipes to break instantly, and a steel pipe as thick as a bowl mouth shot straight towards the top of the carriage with a heart wrenching sound.
Boom! Amidst a loud noise, the entire roof arched upwards, with the iron pipe as the center, piercing through and piercing straight out.
Dark red, foul smelling blood gushed out from the hollow iron pipe inserted through the top of the carriage, and Wang Zongchao faintly heard a golden iron friction like scream coming out of the carriage, possibly caused by the monster's injury and pain.
Before he could even have a face-to-face encounter, Wang Zongchao gave a heavy blow to the monster on the roof of the carriage. With his injuries healed and his combat power soaring, he couldn't be underestimated. Although he couldn't handle the Bimeng monster yet, he had a certain chance of winning against climbers and the like, one-on-one.
At this moment, the monster seemed to know that Wang Zongchao was not easy to deal with, and did not move again for a long time. There was a brief silence in the carriage, and the sound of the tram pressing against the tracks was clearly audible.
Bang! It seemed that the monster couldn't bear the loneliness, but it still took the initiative to attack. It broke through the car's glass window, and its arms and claws penetrated horizontally from the side. Its strength and momentum were not weak compared to attacking from the roof.
Wang Zongchao naturally wouldn't be polite. At the same moment as the monster attacked, he swept the steel pipe he had been holding for a long time with a thunderous force.
Bang! The immense force caused the steel pipe to instantly bend and deform, and Wang Zongchao took a big step backwards. Meanwhile, the monster's arms and claws twisted strangely, indicating a comminuted fracture.
The injured monster screamed wildly and desperately squeezed into the carriage.
Ren! Why are you? "The situation in front of him was beyond Wang Zongchao's expectations, to the point where he couldn't help but whisper. The powerful attacker was none other than the maid soldier Ren, who had recently fought alongside him.
However, in fact, Wang Zongchao almost couldn't recognize her anymore. Currently, apart from a barely recognizable face, Ren's whole body was completely devoid of any human form.
Her body had become thicker and stretched through her clothes, and her skin was already thin enough to see the wriggling of every thick muscle fiber, as if it could break through at any moment and turn into countless disgusting tendrils. You can even faintly see the groove of the brain marrow inside the forehead.
Although she is still walking upright on her feet, perhaps it can no longer be called walking, because her limbs have grown to an extremely deformed degree. Although she hasn't bent down much, her palms can still support the ground and stand parallel to her feet, looking like an extremely large and deformed flea.
I can hold on! Huh? Kill me! Kill me!... "Ren continued muttering to himself. Wang Zongchao speculated that it was a fragment of memory left in her mind, because the impression was too profound, so she was still able to express these residual information. However, from her crocodile like moon pupils, Wang Zongchao could no longer find any emotional light, and Ren had fallen into a killing beast.
If Ren becomes like this, what will happen to Matthew and Matt who are with her? Where is Alice who will escape from here later? Wang Zongchao was startled, but he also noticed a black bullet hole in the center of Ren's forehead.
It seems that Ren couldn't control herself from turning into a zombie on the way, and Matthew and the others had no choice but to make her go berserk. However, it may be the combination of the T-virus and the ineffective antidote that caused her to become like this. Hmm, maybe it's also due to her elite mercenary physique! You should know that researchers who are also infected with the T virus but have a weak body and hunting dogs that have not yet lost their wild instincts are completely different.
However, judging from the degree of her mutation, it should take more time than her own injury to fully recover, so Alice who came out later should not encounter her!
With this thought in mind, Wang Zongchao felt a little relieved and immediately eliminated distractions, starting to solve his opponent.
Kicking under his feet, the scattered steel pipes shot towards Ren's head like angry arrows, breaking through the air. At the same time, his hands did not stop at all. He bent down and grabbed the steel pipes, immediately throwing them at Ren's head.
In an instant, more than ten or twenty steel pipes were densely shooting towards Ren, with an extremely fierce momentum. At a distance of less than two meters, both their strength and density were comparable to the ancient battlefield's chain crossbows.
Ren instinctively held onto her head tightly, but in the blink of an eye, more than ten steel tubes had been inserted into her arms, shoulders, chest, and back. Although the insertion was not deep due to her non-human tissue strength, it still turned her into a hedgehog, with black brown blood sprayed everywhere.
Then there was another cry, and a dark figure with a fierce wind rushed towards Ren, who was almost completely covered.
Ren's movements seemed to be completely based on biological instincts, with his right arm claw swinging sideways like a whip and his claws like a fan, as if he wanted to blow Wang Zongchao straight out.
But her attack fell through, and all that came was a torn piece of clothing still damp, which had already covered her head and face. Under the infusion of Wang Zongchao's power, this garment was like an iron garment that was hundreds of times heavier, flying in the air with the sound of a person rushing towards it.
Wang Zongchao always considers practical combat in battles and never rejects the use of weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and halberds. Even the environment, light, weapons, clothing, belts, and even stones, as well as serrated grass, can be used to kill people.
His traditional martial arts philosophy has always been to "strengthen the body and surpass oneself." However, he is not complacent and does not reject the use of external objects. The key is to still highlight himself. No matter how he kills someone, he always puts people first and objects as a supplement. His greatest confidence still comes from himself; Instead of being controlled by people and things, putting the cart before the horse. Like some pilots of airplanes and tanks, airplanes and tanks have become the main subjects of killing, while humans have become vassals. Even if they are invincible while piloting airplanes and tanks, without these, they may not even have confidence in defeating a rogue.
At the same time, Wang Zongchao suddenly jumped up, and Ren's two pairs of nearly two meter long claws had instantly pierced the ground where he had just stood, but got stuck!
And Wang Zongchao surprisingly jumped onto Ren's back with this jump. Then, he gripped the hammer with both hands and raised it above his head. For a moment, his movements were solemn, as if he had added a heavy hammer.
Ren! Let me send you to rest in peace
Wang Zongchao instantly exerted all his strength, like an ancient god, wielding a mountain sized giant hammer and striking Ren's already covered head.
Inside the carriage, the strong wind howled loudly, like an arrow, with the power of a hammer, and the momentum was as strong as ever!
Although Ren couldn't see, he instinctively felt an immense threat and desperately pulled back his long claws to stab Wang Zongchao on his back.
Bang!
Blood flowers mixed with white bone fragments danced in the air, and Ren's spine made an unbearable creaking sound like a roof. Her head was also shattered by Wang Zongchao's hammer, and the claws that attacked Wang Zongchao only had time to add a few shallow blood marks on his body before hanging down weakly.
Wang Zongchao jumped off Ren, took a short breath, and immediately opened the back door of the carriage. He dragged Ren's motionless body backwards and threw her out of the carriage. Ren's body rolled a few times on the track in the direction of the tram, but was soon thrown farther and farther away by the tram and disappeared.
