Chapter 361 Invasion (Part )
Q City, the biological research institute center that Han Zu once helped to establish.
Alarms sounded inside the institute, but no armed garrison came to check. It was not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't.
The entire biological research institute, rooms, laboratories, corridors, and rest areas were filled with the bodies of the institute's garrison. Judging from the marks on their bodies, they died from a variety of weapons and were attacked in a planned, fierce, and precise manner. Whoever attacked the institute, they knew exactly what they were doing.
In the three-headed giant biological observation room at the deepest part of the institute, there were many fully armed and taciturn elite soldiers gathered here. In front of them was a group of senior members of the institute who were kneeling on the ground. There were not many of them, but the chiefs of various fields, including the director of the institute, were all here. In front of them, a woman was holding a terminal and operating something. After a minute or two, the alarm of the institute was suddenly shut down. And a modified false news of the alarm being triggered by mistake was transmitted to the outside.
A soldier who looked like an elite captain approached the woman, whispered something in her ear, and pointed his gun at three of the researchers kneeling on the ground. He then handed the woman another small sealed reagent bottle.
The woman nodded, waved to the soldiers behind the group of people kneeling on the ground, and then turned and left the observation room. Two soldiers took away the three people who were pointed out just now and followed them. Then, gunshots were heard behind them, and the remaining researchers were executed on the spot. Now, except for the three people who were taken away, everyone in the entire biological research institute had been killed or executed.
"drop."
"Ms. Garcia, is this what you want?"
The woman's watch lit up. It was a communication from afar. When she turned on the communication screen, Garcia's face appeared on the screen. It seemed that she was in a huge laboratory, and there were many researchers working behind her. The woman's tone was even a little playful, which was completely different from when she executed those researchers with an expressionless face.
"That's right, Miss Christina. It seems that my previous understanding of you was wrong. You are not only beautiful, but also very capable. This is what I want."
This woman is the younger sister of the current head of the Feidenan family. In general, she is also the second person in the Feidenan family. When the Infinite Company was preparing to catch cheaters, she was the leader of the team. She was the only one who escaped from the incident that Han Zu saw.
"So should I give it to you now, or should I wait until all my actions are completed before sending it back?"
"It's all fine. Just use your own judgment, Christina. I think your actions during this period have proven that you have sufficient judgment."
When Garcia was communicating in the laboratory, the researcher next to her handed her a report. Garcia looked down and then looked up again, only to find that the communication had been interrupted.
"Here, Ms. Garcia."
"Oh! I was shocked. Sorry Christina, I forgot you could do this."
"You'll get used to it. When my brother first learned about this, he was no less surprised than you."
When she turned around, Christina had already appeared next to Garcia. Garcia was obviously a little frightened by her sudden appearance, but she recovered quickly. It was obvious that she knew about Christina's special teleportation ability, but she had never seen it before.
After handing the sealed reagent bottle to Garcia, the two exchanged a few simple courtesies and Christina disappeared in the laboratory again. However, she did not return to Q City immediately, or go to the next mission location. Instead, she was summoned by the head of the Ferdinand family, her brother.
A villa in the woods in an unknown place.
"elder brother."
"Ah."
"What's the matter that requires you to come here so urgently?"
Compared to Garcia, the head of the Ferdinand family was not surprised by Christina's sudden appearance. It seemed that he was used to it.
"The team we sent out last time has been treated and their cognition has been restored. Although their memory has been damaged to a certain extent, we still found a way to lock the last location where the family's old equipment appeared. Christina, I need you to go there."
"According to Garcia, isn't that place a secret base that the man built privately? Why, you don't believe Garcia?"
"Of course, Christina, you have to remember that only family members are trustworthy. Do you understand?"
"I see. What should I look for? Is there anything I should pay attention to?"
"Collect information. Collect whatever you think is important. Although Garcia has said a lot about that man, I think it's better for our own people to collect intelligence. The information provided by our people is that there are gas delivery equipment and cognitive position generation devices at the entrance of the secret base. Other than that, the internal structure is actually unclear. You take some people with you and break through the entrance. I judge that there must be a lot of traps or automatic sentry weapons inside. So you must be careful and let the cannon fodder go first. Do you understand?"
"Okay, then when should I leave?"
"Now, I have sent people to the old house above the secret base, and they are currently cleaning up the scene. Judging from the several sentry systems set up by the advance team, there must be something important in this secret base. But if it is too dangerous, come back first. Your safety is the most important. Do you understand, Christina?"
"Got it, don't worry, brother! What about the things I have on hand? Have you arranged for someone to take over? Or will you wait until I come back to do it?"
"You have completed the important tasks. The rest are just cleanup work. Just leave it to your subordinates and cannon fodder."
"I'm leaving?"
"Be careful..."
Before the head of the family could finish his words, Christina had disappeared.
Han Zu’s old house, right above the secret base.
As soon as Christina appeared, the commander on the scene came to greet her. Without any nonsense or courtesy, the commander directly began to report the situation on the scene. It can be seen that this group of soldiers are not ordinary cannon fodder. Judging from their achievements, they all have something on their bodies.
"We have cleared 80% of the sentry systems around the site. Based on the detection of the equipment, we suspect that there are some trap systems in other peripheral locations. However, there are other residents nearby. If we act rashly, it may attract the attention of the Dragon Country military. Therefore, we have not ruled out the traps in those locations. This is the distribution map of all the traps. The locations that have been ruled out and those that have not been ruled out are carefully marked."
"How's the perimeter layout going?"
"No problem. When we arrived nearby, we used cloaking and jamming devices, so the surveillance system didn't capture us. We also deployed cloaking force fields and cognitive modification force fields, as well as silent shielding equipment, on the periphery. All our work here will not be leaked."
"Great, how's the breach at the entrance going?"
"We have found several entrances through human investigation and equipment detection. The closest one is the one in the well. Although our equipment can shield the poison gas equipment, we cannot interfere with the cognitive modification field inside. The cognitive modification field generator inside should be protected by a protective magnetic field. So we are trying to break through other entrances... Our team No. 300 broke through one of the entrances, meters away from here, inside another abandoned old house. They have successfully entered the entrance and are eliminating the traps inside the entrance corridor. Should we let them continue to break through to the inside, or wait there?"
"Let them continue working, we'll go over now."
"clear."
300 meters is not far, and the group soon arrived at the location described in the information of the third team. Inside an abandoned old house, they saw an open metal trapdoor on the ground in the master bedroom. Although the trapdoor looks like it has been there for a long time, it should have been built together with the old house. However, through the detection of the equipment, it can be known that the trapdoor is artificially aged, including the bottom of the trapdoor, which is obviously a polished shaft. But ordinary people can't see it.
There were two soldiers from the third squad guarding here. Christina went forward to ask about the situation on the scene. Everything was normal, no problem.
"The shaft is about 30 meters deep and there is no climbing equipment. When we used drones to remove traps, we found some small holes inside the shaft. Judging from their size, they should be traces left by steel bars. There may be some special detachable climbing equipment, but the positions of the holes are irregular, so it may be modular equipment."
Although these soldiers were not clear about the actual situation, Christina knew that these should be the climbing marks left by the man's fingers. However, there was no need to let these people know about the man's existence because they were not qualified.
"Is there any other equipment inside the shaft?"
"There is an intelligent gravity trap that only responds to living things. Our equipment discovered it at first, but we didn't know what the device was. So we caught a wild animal nearby and threw it in as a guinea pig. Then we used the equipment to disarm the trap when it was activated. We have already cleaned up the scene."
"How is the progress of the breakthrough below?"
"Debrief the situation."
"We have now broken through the corridor, cracked the second blockade, and entered the facility. We are using interference equipment to clear the traps and sentry systems inside, but the innermost core system is highly encrypted. Although we can crack it, it may trigger the bottom-level alarm, and the core system may pass on the message that the facility has been invaded. We are currently looking for the location of the core system's equipment, which will take about a few minutes. We are currently using the interference field generator to lock the status of the core system."
"Keep the current state, we will go down now."
"Yes."
A few people were left to guard the top, while the others used the rappelling equipment left by the third team to quickly reach the corridor below the shaft. After the entourage went down, Christina was also teleported down. The entourage raised their weapons, protected Christina in the middle of the team, and carefully passed through the corridor, passed the second blockade, entered the facility, and successfully joined the remaining members of the third team who had already entered the facility.
"We can currently lock onto the core system inside the facility. The main server is located below this floor. The core system is a modular device. We have deployed interference fields near the detected modular locations. As long as our interference field equipment is not destroyed, the alarm inside the facility will not be triggered."
"Can you analyze the structure of the entire facility?"
"No, our equipment can only scan the detailed structure of two floors. There is special interference at the bottom of the facility, which should be a shielding device. We did not find a matching device model, so it should have been specially modified. However, we have basically eliminated traps on the other two floors, so they are safe for now."
"Have you searched the equipment on this floor?"
"Yes, most of them are various equipment. Although they have been modified and reorganized, they should be reassembled or tertiary assembled with a large number of unauthorized unlimited company equipment. We have analyzed the basic functions of the equipment. This is the information of these equipment. The rest are some raw materials. Some things are difficult to get on the market. Even the family's reserves of certain specific materials are not as sufficient as here."
"You can't even get your family?"
"Our equipment is on the next floor, and it has scanned a large amount of XIIV-969-T. And it's not defective, it's high-quality raw material."
A large number of manufacturing equipment and a large number of XIIV-969-T made Christina suspicious. In other words, the owner of the facility was secretly manufacturing a large number of things here, and it must be related to these XIIV-969-T. The members of Team were right. The family didn't have many of these things. The only places that could store more than this place were some special facilities of the Infinite Company. These things were definitely not obtained through formal means.
"Get ready. We'll go search the next level first. Once we're sure it's safe, send someone down to set up the transporter and send all the XIIV-969-Ts back."
"clear."
There are three entrances to the next floor, one is a large lifting platform, one is an elevator, and the other is a shaft that can be climbed by one person, but there is no ladder. The large lifting platform is currently locked by the core system of the facility and cannot be cracked. There is a large amount of special poisonous gas inside the shaft that cannot be filtered by conventional equipment, so the only entrance to the next floor is the elevator. Although the elevator is not controlled by the core system, it is also in a locked state.
"Our drone has gone down to check. There is a biometric lock at the bottom of the shaft that is connected to the core system. It is currently unbreakable, just like the elevator. However, we found this terminal on this floor, in a position similar to the desk of the facility owner. The terminal is highly confidential. A lot of information requires a biometric lock, but the elevator control does not. We have broken through the elevator blockade."
"Once we're done exploring the facility, take this terminal with you. Perhaps the technicians can crack the biometrics and find something useful inside."
"We are using drones to check the interior of the elevator and found a Tesla trap on top. Once we remove it, we should be able to ride the elevator normally."
"By the way, check along the elevator shaft. There may be other trap devices."
"Yes."
