The Death Knell

Chapter 37 Research Institute

"boom!!!"

As an explosion sounded, an earth dragon made of dust rushed out from the door, turning the people behind the bunker into disgrace. The dust mixed with the wet rainwater on their bodies turned into mud.

A sign that came from nowhere was also blown up in front of Su Ming's eyes, with only the word 'laboratory' left on the debris.

"It seems Falcone didn't clean it after moving in. His new Rome is not as clean as ancient Rome." After the dust settled, Cindy observed it and patted the dirt on her body: "But this does have an archaeological feel. .”

"Are you sure his men took Director Gordon this way? This environment doesn't look like it." Su Ming raised his pistol and looked outside the door into the institute. All he saw in the eyepiece was red.

"I'm not sure, because I didn't find today's footprints at all. There may be another entrance to the scrapyard." Cindy took a few steps forward and leaned against the door frame, making a creaking sound as the debris on the ground was stepped on. .

The night vision function of the helmet has always been very useful, but when I look in at the door, all I can see is all kinds of garbage. The inside is still the same as it was during the evacuation, including burnt documents, damaged typewriters, and everything that can be destroyed. Everything was destroyed.

"That's okay, the place is right."

He knew that this was probably due to Vikvali's luck. She just wanted to film the news program that Su Ming promised her, so fate brought them here.

Don't think about it, if you take this route, there will definitely be enough fighting in it, maybe it will be enough for her to edit a 'news movie'. And in this weird situation, if they want to find another way, they will definitely not find it. This is the role of luck.

If she wanted a gas mask, she could find it in the Batcave; she thought she was short of money, so she found gold.

Wei Ke is like an uncontrolled causal weapon. It is a double-edged sword. Naturally, Su Ming is sometimes burdened by this luck.

But now she had to borrow her luck. Su Ming felt that she was not very lucky. She was suddenly thrown from a rental house to Gotham to face a hail of bullets. The world was counting down to the end of the world. This was simply a non-chief-like treatment.

Take her with you, if something unexpected happens and you are unable to do anything, metaphysics may be able to save your life. Just keep it with you as a good luck charm until you find Bliss, who is the daughter of destiny, and is more effective than Vico, and then make a decision based on the situation.

Now Su Ming just hopes that there won't be too many monsters inside.

"We go in, you protect them." Su Ming put away the gun, pulled out the long knife from behind again, and was about to enter the research institute.

Cindy quickly stretched out a finger and pressed his armor chest. She shook her head and pulled him behind her. She took out the two knives from her back and walked in first.

Are you kidding me? Letting a man explore the road will make her lose face in the future.

Su Ming shrugged. Since she wanted to open the way, she would just stay behind. In fact, it was only a few steps behind.

The two helmets have night vision systems, which are not affected by the dim indoor environment, while the other three must use the lighting on the camera to see their surroundings clearly.

The power supply here is normal, but the lighting system on the first floor has been damaged. The lighting box and the wires are limply pulled out of the wall, like a dead animal with its entrails dropped out.

Barbara felt like it was swept by a typhoon. In front of the camera lens, she saw that most of the things were shattered.

Gotham's history is shattering before our eyes. This kind of place shouldn't exist in Gotham.

Wei Ke has already started recording, but she only asked Pete to shoot some environment and other materials, and has not started narrating yet.

This is the first floor of the underground research institute. Logically speaking, it is relatively safe. However, looking at the surrounding situation, Su Ming felt that something might have come up from below.

At this moment, Cindy, who was exploring the way ahead, waved her weapon, and the cold sword light flashed in the air. The black shadow flying towards her was cut in half and fell to the ground.

The thing was not completely dead, but was still squirming on the ground. Cindy lowered her head and saw that the thing was like a black maggot the size of a palm.

"What the hell?" She raised her foot and trampled the still squirming thing into a puddle of thick pulp.

"It looks like a larger maggot." Su Ming also saw the little thing, which was actually just a by-product of genetic experiments.

"I'm starting to hate it here."

Cindy rubbed her knife against the remains of the desk beside her. There were some jelly-like green entrails wrapped around the back of the knife, and then she continued to move forward. From time to time, bugs would bounce towards everyone from the darkness.

"We have to find a way to the lower level, pass through the experimental area, and reach the dormitory area." Su Ming also chopped off a bug and said to Cindy.

"There is a passage 200 meters away from 11 o'clock." Cindy raised her head and glanced. The equipment and experience allowed her to make an immediate judgment.

So everyone began to move that way. As they moved forward, there were more and more black bugs on the road, which were densely packed. Cindy began to use shotguns to improve the efficiency of their progress.

It seems that these things can never be killed. I don’t know how many there are in the darkness, so it is better to pass quickly.

The closer to the passage, the denser the monsters became, which proved her judgment that these things escaped from the experimental area, which was the road leading to the experimental area.

But this also means that something is out of containment, and lunatics don't just play with little creatures like this.

Under the protection of the two people, everyone arrived at the door smoothly. With just a slight push, the door opened.

A black shadow suddenly appeared on the ceiling behind the door, jumped on Cindy, and kept attacking her with claws and teeth, making the sound of metal colliding.

But Cindy would not panic. The world-class mercenary had seen countless emergencies. She immediately drew her knife and stabbed it directly in the head. It penetrated from the eye socket and came out from the back of the head, and the skull made a "crack" sound. The sound of breaking.

The body fell to the ground.

This thing looks like a hairless monkey or orangutan, with thick carapace growing out of its joints, like a crab shell.

It should be a hunter that hunts leeches for food, but unfortunately it picked the wrong prey this time.

Cindy simply chopped off its head, so that even if it had the ability to heal itself, it would still take a lot of time for everyone to pass.

"What is this called now, beetle monkey? Longhorn orangutan?" Cindy picked up the head of the strange creature. The teeth of this thing actually grew sideways, like an insect.

"I don't know what it's called. It probably just has a test item number, but I guess it might have been a human before." Su Ming said calmly, leading the three of them through the passage door.

Cindy shrugged and continued to clear the way. She already knew that it was a military experiment. Naturally, there were humans who could be used as primate samples, so why did we need monkeys?

"Is this a human being?" Barbara was shocked. Except that the facial features of this thing were slightly human-like, there was no way she could have guessed that it had once been a human being.

"Guess." Su Ming closed the door behind him and looked at the body on the ground.

Barbara was speechless. She felt a little sad. She once again felt the madness of human beings. This tendency of self-destruction will always be with human beings.

Wei Ke nodded, which proved her guess about the origin of the death knell. She immediately wrote it down in a small notebook, and at the same time directed Pete to give something on the ground... Whatever it is, let's take a close-up first. Then take some overall pictures of death.

She feels that the audience will fall madly in love with her after watching this special episode.
