Chapter 7 Boiler Room Battle G1

After groping around on the wall for a while and turning on the light switch, the scene in the secret room gradually became brighter.

Bookcases, globes, old record players, miniature models of the entire police station, art statues, desks…

This is a totally private office!

After a brief search, the three of them took the elevator down and came to a long and narrow passage.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps overhead, and a figure could be vaguely seen running by, accompanied by the sound of a girl's panting.

There are other survivors!

"Hello?"

Claire tried to shout.

The footsteps above my head did not stop, but soon disappeared into the distance.

The three continued forward and came to a tilted cabinet.

Elliot stepped forward and was about to straighten the cabinet.

But in the room behind the cabinet, a figure crouched and moved behind the cardboard box.

Claire immediately squatted down and turned on the flashlight, only then could she see the man's true face.

Blonde hair, light blue eyes, light blue plaid vest, sports shorts, black calf socks, white shoes, and a childish face that looks about 12 or 13 years old.

"Hey, it's okay, we won't hurt you!"

"Do you need help? Come, hold my hand~"

Claire showed her helpfulness as a big sister and took the initiative to communicate.

But the little girl was obviously frightened, and her eyes were fixed on the backs of the three people.

"You...you are the ones who need to help!"

The little girl hesitated and was reluctant to come out.

"Sorry, I didn't catch that...?"

The little girl's voice was so soft that Claire couldn't hear it clearly.

“You are the ones who need help…”

So the little girl repeated it again, and this time she finally made it clear.

"why?"

Claire frowned, confused.

"He...he's right behind you...!"

As the little girl's face turned into one of fear, a rustling noise was heard behind them.

"Elliot, be careful!"

Along with this came Yang Ren's warning.

Claire looked back and saw a monster standing behind the three people.

The monster's left half was covered in a torn white research suit and had golden hair. The left half of its body still retained its human form, but the right half was like the Licker, with exposed muscles.

The right shoulder was raised high, and as the monster twitched and howled, an eye the size of a human head suddenly opened.

"Oh my god…"

Claire sighed subconsciously and immediately drew her gun and prepared to fight.

“Help…me!”

The monster roared in pain, then punched Yang Ren, who was closest to him.

Yang Ren quickly stepped back to avoid the punch, and a big hole was smashed into the grille under his feet.

The monster took advantage of the situation and grabbed a steel pipe underneath and pulled it out.

The grating plate lost its support and fell down as a whole, taking Yang Ren with it.

Landing on his back, Yang Ren fell heavily to the ground. He felt as if all the bones in his body were about to fall apart. He struggled to get up.

"What the hell is that?!"

Elliot above uttered a cry of surprise.

The monster also fell down, stood up twisted, covering his head with his left hand, as if in great pain.

“She…rry…!”

The monster mumbled this word in its throat, which seemed to be someone's name.

The pole held in her right hand made a loud sound when it hit the iron railing next to her.

Yang Ren quickly raised his gun and fired wildly at the big eyeball on the monster's right shoulder.

Four magazines poured down, but it seemed to have no effect except making the big eyeballs turn a little yellow.

The monsters also recovered from their painful state, and three eyes, two small and one big, stared at Yang Ren together.

He strode towards him and swung the steel pipe violently.

Huh-boom!

A incendiary bomb flew down from overhead and hit the monster, and flames instantly enveloped the entire monster.

The high temperatures briefly stopped it in its tracks.

"Nikola, run!"

Claire's voice came from above, and the two of them were constantly providing fire cover for Yang Ren.

However, since the shooting angle was not very good, the big eyeball on the monster's right shoulder could not be hit, and the effect was very limited.

The flames soon dissipated, and the monster's skin was burned a lot, but it didn't seem to be seriously damaged.

"It's...hurt!!!"

The monster roared wildly, and the steel pipes kept hitting the walls around it, sparks flying.

Yang Ren quickly used the corner of the terrain below to deal with the monster, while hurriedly taking out bullets from his waist bag and loading them into the magazine.

There seemed to be a boiler room below, with a large amount of white steam filling the air, providing him with good cover.

As the monster roared, the sound of steel pipes hitting walls and iron railings became closer and closer, and he had just finished loading two magazines.

After emptying the magazine again in front of the big eyeball, a large amount of blood can be seen with the naked eye.

The entire eyeball turned red, but Yang Ren was successfully approached by the monster.

The heavy steel pipe came down diagonally with a strong wind.

Bang-!

Yang Ren dodged sideways, and the place where he was standing before was hit and dented.

The monster quickly pulled out the steel pipe and swung it violently.

The speed was so fast that Yang Ren had no time to react and was hit hard in the abdomen.

Adrenaline stimulated his nerves, and he didn't feel any pain at the moment of being hit or for a short while afterwards.

But after he dodged several attacks, he suddenly felt dizzy, nauseous, sweating coldly, and his eyes turned black.

The severe pain in his abdomen almost made him lose the ability to move.

Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, the monster suddenly raised its hand and grabbed Yang Ren's head, picking him up like a chicken.

The huge grip on his head made Yang Ren feel that his head would be crushed like a watermelon in the next moment.

In panic, he reached for the dagger at his waist.

Not caring whether he could see it or not, he pulled out the dagger, stabbed it with all his strength, and then held the handle and pulled it downward with force.

The grip on the head suddenly disappeared as the monster howled in pain.

Yang Ren fell to the ground, holding his stomach in pain and retching continuously, with veins bulging on his forehead.

The knife seemed to have stabbed the big eyeball on its right shoulder.

Pata~ Pata~

There were two sounds of heels hitting the ground behind them, and Claire and Elliot jumped down.

"are you OK?"

While showing concern, Claire held Yang Ren's arm with one hand and pulled him up from the ground.

"I think... it's too milky..."

Yang Ren answered weakly.

The steel pipe made all his abdominal organs ache and he felt powerless.

The pain was like having an egg smashed.

After enduring the severe pain and replacing the magazine, the three of them focused their fire on the monster's big eyes, forcing it to retreat continuously.

In the end, because the monster's upper body was much heavier than its lower body, its center of gravity was unstable and it was knocked over the guardrail and fell into the sewer.

After the boss battle, Yang Ren could no longer hold on and fell to his knees.

Fortunately, Claire and Elliot supported him in time.

"Hold on, we'll get you out right away..."

Elliot said.

Two people held Yang Ren's arms, one on the left and one on the right, and helped him to a ladder.

"Hey, girl?"

"It's all right, it's over!"

Claire spoke to the top of the ladder, and the little girl soon appeared.

"are you sure…?"

The little girl held onto the guardrail and looked timidly at the three people below.

"Yes...I promise, it's okay!"

"Can you... help us get the ladder down?"

Claire replied, also panting slightly.

"Then...can you help me find my mother?"

The little girl inquired.

This question made the three people below stunned at the same time.

How could her mother be in a place like this?

"Is your mother here?"

Claire inquired.

"Should be...here..."

"I hope she's in..."

The little girl replied, her tone also tinged with uncertainty.

The three people below looked at each other, thought for a short while, and then agreed in one breath.

"Okay, we'll help you find her!"

After getting affirmation, the little girl put the ladder down.

Elliot climbed up first, found a rope, threw it down and pulled Yang Ren up.

After a brief understanding, I learned that the girl's mother worked for Umbrella Corporation and seemed to be developing an important drug.

And the girl’s father…passed away.

Claire also lost her parents early, leaving only her and her brother Chris.

Elliot's parents both live in Raccoon City, so the situation is probably not going to end well.

Yang Ren's own life experience is a complete question mark.

Several people quickly left the boiler room through the manhole cover and came to the underground parking lot of the police station.

"Go this way!"

The little girl invited everyone to come to the parking lot gate, but the gate was closed.

After the two of them placed Yang Ren next to the gate, Claire went forward to check, but found that a key card was needed.

"Come and help..."

Two adults and one child tried to lift the door together, but after trying for a long time there was no response.

"Are you sure this is the way?"

Claire had no choice but to ask the little girl.

"That's how my mother took me away last time..."

the little girl replied.

"Shirley?!"

Suddenly, a deep, middle-aged male voice came from the side of the parking lot.

"It was so hard for me to find you, Shirley..."

"It's really brave for a little girl to go out in these circumstances!"

The four of them turned their heads at the same time.

After he finished speaking, a fat, white-haired man with a vest and a beard walked out from the shadows.

"Chief Bryan!"

Elliot exclaimed when he saw who it was.
