Chapter 67 Veronica Complex!

Chapter 67 Veronica Complex!

"Javier got away again!"

Krauser said in annoyance.

The place on my arm where the bone spur pierced me still hurts a little.

And as time went on, the arm was gradually losing sensation.

"Let's go."

There was no choice but to leave here first.

The team gathered outside the double doors, behind which was the elevator.

Suddenly, there was a violent tremor.

A huge hole suddenly appeared in the concrete ceiling above my head, and a huge claw fell down.

Yang Ren immediately pulled Claire and Manuela and retreated quickly.

At the same time, the others also scattered.

This avoids the risk of being wiped out in one fell swoop.

"What the hell is this!?"

Krauser exclaimed.

Seeing that its attack failed, the giant claw grabbed the mutated body of Manuela's mother and dragged her up.

Only blood was left on the ground.

When everyone looked at the double doors again, the entrance was blocked by several huge rocks.

"Look over there! There's an exit!"

Everyone looked in the direction Manuela pointed, and sure enough, there was a small rolling door that had been torn open.

The team swarmed in. Inside the door was a passage built with a simple wooden frame, like a mine tunnel.

When everyone was about to move forward, a python vine suddenly emerged on the road ahead.

This python vine is not as thick as the one I saw at the Antarctic base.

There is no scaly-covered epidermis, the head is large and the roots are thin.

In the narrow passage, the python vine attacked the team like lightning.

It's hard not to stab someone in such a crowded place with so many people.

The people at the front of the team dodged to both sides of the passage in time.

The medic at the back was unable to dodge and was pierced on the spot and nailed to the wall.

Everyone grabbed the python vine, drew out their daggers at the same time, and cut it into pieces on the spot.

After its head was cut off, the python vine shrank back at a faster speed, spurting out green blood.

Turn around and look at the medic behind you.

The python vine pierced his abdomen, leaving a bloody hole with a diameter of at least 20 centimeters.

His body slid limply down the wall and he died instantly.

"Leave him alone...he's hopeless!"

Darren wanted to go back to support the medic, but was grabbed back by Leon.

After coming out of the mine tunnel, they found themselves outside the secret room that the team had crawled out of before.

The lost engineer lay quietly on his back at the door of the secret room.

His face had been eaten beyond recognition by the mutant ants, almost like a skeleton.

Everyone ignored him and followed the underground passage back to the surface where they had fought with Javier's men.

On the open ground, Yang Ren suddenly felt a strong murderous intent, and the hairs all over his body stood up.

Without thinking too much, Yang Ren immediately pulled Claire to the side.

boom--!

A huge foot came down, and the container in front was stepped on and turned into - container.zip.

Before he could catch his breath, the foot was raised again, ready to fall.

"Hide now!"

Leon shouted.

Soon, the container next to him was also flattened.

The huge impact force directly sent Leon flying.

The crowd scrambled to avoid being trampled, and only after running for some distance were they able to look back.

With the glow of the setting sun, I could clearly see the owner of the foot.

The monster in front of him was so huge that it could almost be described as a building.

Judging from his height, he must be at least 20 meters tall!

The head looks like a canine skull magnified dozens or even hundreds of times.

The body is like a huge ball of flesh covered with spikes.

And each of those spikes is almost the size of a head.

The body is surrounded by a circle of large and small legs, some of which are sickle-shaped, and some are as sharp as spider legs.

And then there were those flat-headed, hammer-shaped legs that had just trampled on everyone!

Yang Ren's pupils suddenly shrank.

What a big spider!

(Veronica Complex/V-Complex)

"Is this guy also a BOW?!"

Krauser exclaimed as he looked at the gigantic V-Complex.

"Look... this is the true power of the virus...!"

Javier's voice came from inside the V-Complex, his tone full of madness.

"It's Javier! He merged with the plant in the greenhouse!"

Leon yelled.

Everyone who reacted immediately opened fire at the V-Complex.

Yang Ren took out his satellite phone and dialed the number while running.

"Connect the quick reaction force!"

Soon, the noisy sound of helicopter blades came from the other end of the line.

"What's wrong, Boss?!"

It was Kevin's voice on the other side.

"How long will it take you to arrive?!"

Yang Ren asked as he dodged the V-Complex's huge limbs.

"Almost there! 5 minutes!"

"Pilot! Faster!"

"——If we go any faster, we'll hit the ground...!"

Kevin and the pilot were talking on the other side.

Yang Ren thought for a while, then said to Kevin:

"Bringing down the Hammer!"

After saying this, he hung up the phone.

Everyone who listened to this conversation felt itchy with hatred.

How to deal with such a huge monster without heavy firepower and air support?

The military has shit in its brains...

If we send a helicopter over here and launch a few rocket launchers, what creature can survive?!

The M249 on the flight crew that had been delivering continuous firepower to the V-complex suddenly stopped firing.

"I have no bullets...!"

Before he finished speaking, the ground beneath his feet began to churn.

A python vine sprouted out from the ground, pierced his body from behind, and threw him aside.

The plane crashed into the container and stopped moving immediately.

The grenadier at the side raised his gun and fired a grenade at the V-Complex, which exploded outside the tumor on its body.

The multi-purpose high-explosive bomb instantly shattered several tumors, and a large amount of blood spread out.

The grenadier immediately loaded the second grenade.

But before it could fire, a huge sickle-shaped limb swept over.

The grenadier was unable to dodge and was cut in half on the spot.

Phew—boom! ! !

The next moment, a missile with a long tail of smoke flew from the sky and hit the body of the V-complex directly.

The explosion severed several of the V-Complex's limbs, briefly delaying its movement.

And judging by the fireball produced by the explosion, this missile had at least 50 kilograms of explosives.

The V-Complex also let out an extremely angry roar, as if the attack had caused it considerable damage as well.

Woo——Boom——!

A few seconds later, a fighter jet flew over everyone's heads at an extremely low altitude at an extremely fast speed.

The sudden and huge supersonic boom almost deafened everyone, and even made people want to squat down and cover their ears.

"Yeah Baby!!!"

The sight of fighter jets flying low overhead was truly exhilarating.

Rifleman Grant, realizing that air support had finally arrived, immediately shouted excitedly.

"Grant, be careful!"

Darren shouted, reaching out to Grant's back.

A python vine swung like lightning, and Grant's tiny body was directly knocked into the air dozens of meters high.

Rolling and spinning in the air, it fell from the base into the jungle outside the base wall.

At this point, only Darren and Krauser were left in the 16-member special operations team.

"Fuck!"

Darren punched the ground angrily.

Falling into the jungle from such a great height would surely lead to death.

The rifle bullets had all been used up, so everyone immediately pulled out their pistols and fired continuously at the Veronica Complex.

The pistol bullets hit the V-Complex, and even the blood splatters were so tiny that they were invisible.

"I see…"

"This pain... is my proof of being human..."

"If the pain disappears, then I will no longer be human..."

"No...I choose to die as a human!"

Manuela at the back gradually stood up.

Its tiny body contrasts sharply with the huge V-complex that appears so majestic in the setting sun ahead.

While everyone was changing their guns, Manuela rushed towards the V-Complex without hesitation.

"Manuela, don't go!"

Seeing this, Lyon immediately followed.

At the moment when V-Complex was about to crush Manuela to death, he grabbed Manuela's hand.

Then, the two of them rolled and fell into the deep pit next to them.

Krauser immediately stepped forward and saw...

Leon held Manuela tightly under him.

The two looked at each other affectionately for a moment, and then Leon looked back at the V-Complex.

The huge, sharp legs came down again, about to crush both of them to death.

"Leon!"

Klausa yelled.

At the critical moment, Manuela pushed Leon away and stretched out her bandaged arm.

The bandage on the arm began to burn, emitting a dazzling golden light and forming a light film like a protective shield.

Klausa's pupils shrank suddenly.

The moment the V-complex's limbs touched the light film, they were vaporized on the spot by the high temperature.

Moreover, due to the huge inertia, the entire foot stabbed downward with great force and could not be stopped at all.

After a while, when the light film dissipated, two-thirds of the entire leg visible to the naked eye had disappeared.

"Ouch-!"

As the V-Complex howled in pain, Manuela gradually stood up.

There was still a raging fire on her arms, and as her arms swung down, the flames went out.

At the same time, a large amount of blood dripped onto the ground.

"Manuela...is that you?"

Leon supported himself on one hand and looked at Manuela in disbelief.

The latter slowly turned his head and smiled.

“It’s me…”
