Looking at the door in front of them, the captain and lieutenant looked at each other, glanced at the players behind them, and the captain gestured for a temporary rest. Two team members were on guard near the gate, while the others rested in place. I don't know if it is because of being underground or because there is a steel gate at the end of the tunnel. There is a mysterious atmosphere everywhere. No one in the team talks, just silently drinking water and eating bread to satisfy their hunger.
"Captain, this is probably an old military base." After checking the situation near the gate, the black adjutant returned to the captain and said in a low voice: "The materials used in the gate, the design of the rails, and other auxiliary equipment are very Obviously not our current magic technology."
"An old military base?" The captain took off his helmet, rubbed his hair and said: "Well, let's see what's inside."
He stood up and said in a deep voice: "All up, let's go. Check your equipment, I need you to be able to fight at any time."
All the team members quickly conducted a self-inspection of equipment. The captain made a gesture to the adjutant. The black adjutant took a magic rifle from his back. This rifle named "Storm" can carry out rapid strikes and firepower. Suppression is the most appropriate for cover. The captain took out a magic pistol, activated the pistol, raised the gun and walked in the gap in the gate first.
Other people filed in.
The air behind the door is dry and the team members breathe smoothly, indicating that the air circulation in the base is good. Everyone's tactical helmets have enabled the infrared vision mode, and no one dares to use the torch on the helmet in this dim environment. Otherwise, it is simply a moving target.
Entering from the gate is a downward passage. The passage is very spacious. It cannot be seen from the road signs that this is a two-way passage, which can accommodate four armored vehicles to pass side by side at the same time. There is no major damage to the structure of the passage. From this point of view, the quality of the military base is still very good. After all, the popularization of magic technology is only two hundred years ago, so it can be inferred that this base is a product at least two centuries ago, and the base environment can still maintain a rough appearance, which is already very rare.
There is no lighting in the base, like a dead grave. This kind of silent march, even these well-trained soldiers, is also under tremendous mental pressure. This passage seemed to have no end. When the captain saw the road ahead, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The road post has been abandoned, and the electronic system is no longer in operation. After crossing the road post, there is a platform behind it. Judging from the nearby signs, this should be a transit platform for cargo transportation. External materials are delivered here and then handed over, and then transported by the base's internal vehicles. The platform has several passages leading to the car-carrying elevators, but without electricity, these elevators are naturally at a standstill.
After a while, the team found a staircase on the east side of the platform.
Standing at the dark entrance, the captain made a guard gesture, and then entered first with the adjutant. After walking for a while, there was a slight noise from below, and the captain controlled his head at the armrest. The image below was displayed in the visor of the tactical helmet. Just below the stairs, a dark shadow was lying on the stairs blocking the way. As if feeling the captain's gaze, it moved and then raised its head.
The captain drew back quickly, even if he was as experienced as him, his heart was beating hard. In the moment of looking at each other, he saw a monster. It was the monster that took away his soldiers, but it was not known whether it was the same one. Just to be sure, there are such monsters hiding in this military base, and these beasts are definitely not natural products. The cold eyes didn't look like a beast at all, but more like a well-trained soldier.
And it's the kind trained to be a killing machine.
The captain made a gesture to the adjutant. The latter understood, and whispered to the soldier behind him: "Release the reconnaissance robot."
The soldier removes the tactical backpack and takes out a box from it. Open it. Among them is a reconnaissance machine disguised as an insect. After activating it, the robot flies down the stairs and can see the picture under the stairs through the screen on the tactical board.
Sure enough, on the stairs below, there was a monster who was about the size of a calf, with lion heads and horns, with human-like arms. The muscles of both arms are bulging, but the hind limbs are like cattle legs, with black and shiny hooves. On the screen, the monster seemed to have spotted the robot. It looked up, and suddenly a ball of flame appeared between the horns of its head. Suddenly, the fire shining on the screen brightened up, making it impossible to see objects, and then the screen lost its signal. It was obvious that the robot had been destroyed.
The captain is in a heavy mood, and the monster behaves like a sentry, destroying any suspicious things passing by. At this time, the adjutant bumped him, and the captain realized that there was a fire light under the stairs. He raised the visor of his tactical helmet, and saw that the fire was so obvious in the dim stairs, and it was getting brighter. After a while, a shadow appeared at the corner.
The monster is coming towards them!
The captain immediately made a retreat gesture, and at this moment, a scream sounded behind him. He turned his head and saw a monster rushing down above the stairs. The two corners of his head pushed up one of his soldiers, and the other soldiers raised their rifles and greeted the monster. The rain of bullets swept over the monster, shooting it to splash blood. But it didn't even scream, dropped the soldier, and burst out a ball of flames with its mouth open.
At this moment, another monster under the stairs also appeared in front of the captain, and was flanked back and forth. The captain could only shout: "Kill these two monsters!"
The team is divided into two sides, about seven or eight people on each side, and concentrated firepower to shoot off these two monsters. The storm rifle in the hands of the black adjutant is even more pouring. A rain of light fell on the monster, the power of the magic rifle was obviously higher than that of ordinary firearms, and the monster was shot into a sieve in a blink of an eye. But its vitality is extremely tenacious, and its whole body is dripping with blood, but it still rushes forward desperately. The black adjutant simply put away the rifle and roared vigorously. Two fists were surrounded by flowing cyan flames, and he greeted the monster with a punch.
This head smashed the monster's skull with a shattering sound, but the monster also left a few claw marks on the adjutant before his head drooped to death.
The adjutant backed back, blood dripping on his chest, and even a cut was made on his face. Fortunately, there was no serious problem. The captain patted him on the shoulder, then turned and killed the monster on the stairs. Under the cover of the team members, he hurried forward with his gun, and several blood-red energy bullets fired from the muzzle, blasting into the forehead of the monster's head one after another with an astonishing standard.
When he stopped, the monster had closed his eyes and died, but the captain was not happy at all. Seeing these two monsters covered in bullet holes, the captain felt uncomfortable. These things were terrible. They didn't know how to shrink, and their vitality was terribly tenacious. If there are more such monsters...
At this time, the adjutant came over and said: "Captain, don't you think these monsters are the same as the Burning Legion that the adult showed us?"
The captain nodded and said: "We have to go back."
"Don't save people?"
"It can't be saved." The captain shook his head and said, "You have seen it, but we have to do our best to do things like these two ends. God knows how much there is in this base. On the contrary, we have to send this message back. This is even more important."
The adjutant nodded, suddenly raised his rifle and shouted: "Who is there."
The captain raised his head suddenly, only to see a figure appearing at the top of the stairs, he turned on the torch on his helmet and took a picture. What appeared in the beam of light was a boy, twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a checkered shirt. Except for a smudge on his body, he is no different from the older children that are common in the country. The only difference is that he shouldn't appear in this tomb-like base.
"Are you from Iwan Village?" the captain asked.
The boy didn't react at all.
The captain frowned and said: "We are here to save you, kid, tell us, why did you come here? Who brought you here."
"He." The boy finally said.
"He? Who is he?"
The boy did not speak, just raised his hand and pointed at the back of the crowd. The captain looked back, and there was nothing behind. Looking back, I saw the boy's body twisted unnaturally. The thin body was swelling, and then it exploded like a balloon. Blood and tissue splashed all over the floor, and the captain and adjutant were all stuck with the boy's flesh. Then there was a monster in the place where the boy was, just like the monsters just now, but with a smaller size. The monster raised his head, flames spurted out of the corner, and then leapt over silently.
The captain and the lieutenant fired at the same time, and the two magic weapons focused their firepower, blasting the monster down the stairs. After confirming that it was dead, the two exchanged glances.
"How could this happen, people have become monsters? Could it be that the villagers in Yiwan Village have become monsters?" There was already a bit of fear in the adjutant's voice: "Did we just shoot and kill it actually Villagers of Wancun?"
This is not impossible. The boy just now showed them how he turned from a human into a monster. If this is the case, it would be terrible. What is in this base that can turn people into monsters?
"That's right, soldier." A low voice rose under the stairs.
The captain and lieutenant turned around and saw their soldiers lying on the stairs sometime. Behind them stood a man with a hooded head. Sparks scattered around the man with long black hair.
The man suddenly lifted his head, revealing the dark red armor draped over his body. There were faces on that armor, and each face had a different expression, looking very strange and evil. The man smiled and said: "As long as you touch my flames, no matter what kind of life you are, you will turn into a soldier of the Burning Legion. This is the flame of my doom, the mighty power of Kylistan!"
