The Hunter Under the Tree of Origin Chapter 8: : Dangerous office building
Time: 21:02 at night; 2 hours and 57 minutes before the hatching of the second-generation Nightmare Weaver.
Location: Anyi residential area.
"Merciful Lord, thank you for making my work go smoothly today, may you bless the ignorant human beings, and the punishment of destruction will not come..."
In the parking lot, the driver of a taxi was praying silently with a cross in his hand. Suddenly, there was a bang on the roof of the car next to him. He hurriedly came out to check the situation, and then he saw that there was a pile of haystacks on the car next to him at some point, and a person jumped out of the haystacks above, and jumped in front of him.
The driver exclaimed in surprise: "Are you an angel from heaven?"
"It's not an angel from heaven, but a policeman who just came out of hell. Please send me back to the police headquarters in the city as soon as possible. I have to interrogate two angels who came in violation of the rules."
Wang Ji waved the police card in front of the driver. The dim light inside the car was not enough for the other party to see the proof clearly. Wang Ji also didn't intend to waste time on verifying his identity, pretending to be a policeman and going to the police headquarters. It was not a reasonable behavior, so he quickly took the police card, opened the car door, sat in, and closed the car door.
So far, his Leap of Faith has only (1/3) available times left.
"You really know how to joke."
The driver scratched his head and got into the car, looked at the haystacks on the car next to him and muttered: "It's really strange, when there was so much hay piled on it, now the car maintenance is getting more and more strange."
The engine started, and the taxi slowly exited the parking space. The old driver skillfully adjusted the direction and drove the car into the road. Fifteen minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of the urban police station. Wang Ji paid and got off. Just as he stood on the sidewalk, a faint cold wind suddenly blew out from the gate of the police station. The iron gate of the police yard is only open now, and the lights in the building are also dimmed. Wang Ji walked to the window of the reception room and looked at it. The guard on duty had passed out, and his posture was very abnormal. kind of fright. It was already 21 o'clock in the evening, and there was almost no traffic on the street where the police station was located. Wang Ji wiped his mask, and there was newly contaminated virus dust on his fingers.
"Sure enough, the remaining nightmare weavers are here, are you going to protect the last batch of parasites of the second-generation eggs?"
With a blank face, Wang Ji took six batteries from his pocket for backup, then walked quickly into the courtyard with Krampus' head in his hand. He entered the office building through the small door, clutching his head tightly, ready to go. He found an abnormal situation, the wind whistling in the corridors and passages, no doubt the windows of the corridors were opened. This is not a normal phenomenon. At night, after most police officers get off work, the windows of office buildings must be closed according to regulations.
"If mistakes are ruled out, it is artificially opening the window to prepare for the spread of the virus gas. The fangs and claws of the nightmare weaver can't do it, so it can only be done by controlling people."
After making an estimate of the situation he was facing, Wang Ji came to the stairs without making a sound, without making a sound from his hands or feet. The silence in the office building was terrifying, and Wang Ji could even hear his own even heartbeat. His breathing was very shallow, and after standing on the side of the stairs, he didn't pop up immediately, but turned on Eagle Vision.
At the corner in the darkness, there was a slightly red shadow, which represented a threat and aggression towards Wang Ji. His location was extremely accurate, and he could see everything at the stairs under the moonlight. As long as Wang Ji poked his head out a little, he would be headshot.
"Then..."
Wang Ji fumbled for a battery in the dark. He looked up and prepared to throw the battery up in the gap, attracting the target's attention and then clearing away the threatening target. Grabbing the battery, he was about to throw it up when a big hand suddenly pressed his arm.
"Hush."
Liu Guobang's voice was almost only from his nose, and it was so weak that he could hardly hear it through the gas mask. Wang Ji suddenly turned his head and raised Krampus's head, but he recognized Liu Dui through the outline outlined by his eagle vision, and the rare blue light shadow proved that there was no threat to him.
Liu Dui took the battery from his hand, then threw it towards the corner of the corridor, and the glass window slammed. Almost at the same time, gunshots rang out from upstairs! Liu Dui rolled over the corridor and shot out facing the moon. Under the action of the muffler, the muzzle of the gun rang slightly.
Plop!
"Ah..."
There was a shrill howl from above the corner, and the person ambushing at the corner fell to the ground with a plop. Like a tiger going up the mountain, Team Liu took out the handcuffs from his waist with one hand and threw himself on the ambush person, quickly disarming him Then knock him unconscious. However, after he threw himself on the ambush man, he didn't stand up again.
"Did you get shot?"
Wang Ji hurried up the stairs, quickly squatted down to pick up the thrown battery, and then squatted down to look for Liu Dui's wound, his voice was low. Dui Liu opened Wang Ji's hand with a flick of his hand, and said weakly: "It's really you, but it's true, no one except you may have thought that there would be a problem here. I didn't get shot, but the air here is a bit strange, which made me A little dizzy. Wearing this gas mask is useless."
As he spoke, Team Liu threw away the gas mask.
"You'd better put it on again, and you can't stay here, it's dangerous here, you have to leave quickly."
Wang Ji immediately realized the reason. If human respiratory protection masks can resist the spread of viruses, then the Nightmare Weavers are not enough to be called the species of destruction. He retrieved the gas mask and gave it to Team Liu.
Liu Dui took the mask and seemed to be laughing in the night, he said: "You can't stay here, I hid in the mail room before you came and saw something, it's invulnerable...it's very dangerous here, I have already called the higher-ups. But until now no one has paid any attention. Don’t get into this muddy water, you boy, the mask is even cruder than mine.” Speaking of this, Team Liu did not forget to mock Wang Ji as a senior. But it is well-intentioned.
Tick tock!
A drop of viscous liquid fell on Liu Guobang's trouser legs, as if it was burning, making a sizzling sound, and creaking sounds from above the corridor.
"Help me up!"
Liu Dui's voice was deep and powerful, and he tried his best to wake himself up. From his perspective, he has seen the fangs revealed from the deep dark night on the railing of the corridor, shining coldly under the moonlight, making one's heart palpitating. An unprecedented creature appeared in front of human beings, easily arousing the fear and despair deep in people's hearts. But he didn't want to hurt the idiot in front of him, he couldn't even grasp a gun, and he came here with a puppet to meddle.
Wang Ji ignored Liu Guobang's request. He quickly got up and took two steps back up the stairs. After a drop of the Nightmare Weaver's saliva flashed in front of him, he looked straight ahead, pointed Krampus's head up, Opened the mouth of Krampus's head.
Liu Guobang once again saw the terrifying shadow of the monster clearly. When Wang Ji retreated to the stairs, he completely exposed himself to the fangs. Liu Guobang shouted desperately deep in his heart: "Silly boy! Run away!" A momentary thought could make him shout thousands of times in his heart, but none of them could come out from his hoarse throat.
He couldn't make a sound, he could only watch helplessly as the terrifying shadow of the monster rushed down. He wanted to close his eyes so as not to see the tragedy that happened next, and then, he saw the burning cross, the smell of sulfur burned away the bad breath, and the gushing pillar of fire purified everything under the dark night!
The burning Nightmare Weaver was hit back by the pillar of fire, rolled and struggled painfully across the corridor, twitched a few times and then struggled to escape. Only half of its body was left, and the burnt edge of the body was still burning. Wang Ji calmly chased after him, stepping lightly, and loaded batteries one by one into Krampus's head to recharge.
Poof!
The burning cross reappeared, and the struggling monster was finally burnt to ashes. The flame had a sulfurous smell, which was not pleasant, but for no reason, Team Liu felt much refreshed, and his lost strength and gradually lax consciousness recovered a little. Team Liu had no time to think about these things, but looked at the puppet toy in Wang Ji's hands, with the flames engraved with the cross still burning brightly in his eyes.
"What is this?"
Liu Guobang's voice regained some strength.
"Pesticide."
Wang Ji looked up from the gap in the stairs under the moonlight, and there was a ding, like a bullet hitting an iron railing. In front of Wang Ji's eyes, a spiraling bullet came down from above. The impression was almost instant. He looked away, not feeling lucky for the rest of his life, but feeling sincerely puzzled. Obviously, there were still police officers on the upper floor who were controlled by the nerve virus, but they didn't fight them all at once. As long as there were more than two police officers equipped with pistols, it was enough to kill him and Liu Guobang.
"It's useless."
Liu Guobang said softly: "You don't need to hide at all. People from the Serious Crime Squad and the Supervision Section are there, they won't come down, they will just stick to the stairs. You can't go up. You seem to have known about those bugs for a long time Now, what's on it? You can tell me now."
Liu Guobang's vision was still a little dazed, and the burning cross in his eyes was still there, like a flaming sword being held by Wang Ji. When his consciousness is clear, he can clearly realize that Wang Ji must have a dark secret. Perhaps, he is the person who specializes in dealing with such terrifying monsters.
"I'll send you out first, and then I'll figure out a way."
Wang Ji came down from the second floor, and while helping Liu Guobang, he picked up the gun that had been left on the side, and said he would borrow it for use. Liu Guobang couldn't deny it, stood up with all his strength, staggered down to the first floor with Wang Ji, and was helped to the police yard. Liu Guobang said: "It's best not to act without authorization. Wait for support."
"That's inefficient. Is the power turned off?"
Wang Ji put Liu Guobang down and asked suddenly. Liu Guobang nodded, "They destroyed it. People are using it to guard the floor."
"I have my way."
Wang Ji said.
"Be careful."
Liu team said. Old hands and young people outline understanding and tolerance with simple dialogues. Team Liu did not interfere too much with what Wang Ji had and what he wanted to do.
Wang Ji quickly returned to the dark office building and walked around the first floor. Came to the power supply room. A small number of machines in the power supply room were damaged, and it was obviously caused by the damage caused by the giant impact. Wang Ji had no way of knowing where their wisdom came from, but he could see that they destroyed the place purely to turn off the lights of the entire building. That's all. Finding darkness and creating darkness seems to fit their survival pattern.
The power supply system of the elevator shaft is still good, but the main gate is closed.
"Through the previous temptations and the reference information given by Liu Guobang, these people controlled by the nightmare weaver probably only maintained a basic single-line thinking. This situation is very similar to the thinking mode of people in sleep, seemingly It's normal but essentially muddled. So I don't need to fight for death."
Amidst the sound of electric current, he turned on the emergency power supply system of the elevator shaft.
"Whether you want to guard the stairway or the floor, this will be confirmed soon."
Wang Ji came to the second floor, which was confirmed safe by him. He woke up the elevator on the second floor. After entering, he set up to go up to the top floor of the 9th floor and down to the first floor. Then he got out of the elevator and stood at the entrance of the stairs. , began to wait silently. He is waiting for confirmation as to what the specific tasks of the police officers controlled by Nightmare are.
Whether it is to intercept the stairway or the entire floor.
As the elevator doors closed, the elevator shaft began to operate. Wang Ji took out a chair from the office and placed it on the railing. Soon the gunshots rang out, and the moment the bullets flew out of the gun, Wang Ji could still see numb faces through the gaps in the corridor. He was unmoved and silently pulled back the chair.
"After confirming, their thinking is so simple that they are numb."
