The three of them went down to the underground third floor. As soon as they came out, they found that four people were divided into two groups and were surrounding the two corpses to observe, while the black man Sullivan was on the other side with a flashlight in his mouth, seemingly repairing the circuit.

"what happened?"

Xiao Feng walked up and asked, and saw two bodies on the ground, both holding guns, facing up with bullets in the forehead.

"They both wore white research uniforms with name tags on their chests. They are researchers from Umbrella!"

Richard half-knelt on the ground, holding up the eyelids of one of the corpses and shining a flashlight on it.

Seeing this, Rebecca hurried forward to observe, and then asked in confusion.

"Did they already have organ failure and internal bleeding before they died? Why is it that the pupils are clearly dilated, and there is blood clots in the blood vessels of the eyeballs? Look at his eye circles, they are still dark yellow, and it is obvious that his liver and kidneys are already in a scrapped state... Open his mouth and let me see his tongue!"

Richard nodded and did as he was told. Rebecca glanced at the corpse's mouth and was in disbelief. She quickly checked the corpse's palms and took off his shoes to look at the soles of his feet...

Enrique on the side had a serious look on his face, he crossed his chest and touched his chin as if he was thinking about something.

"They were both already half dead before they were shot. All their organs were failing, and they also had varying degrees of complications and internal bleeding. But the strange thing is... look!"

Rebecca grabbed the corpse's hand and raised it up, motioning for everyone to come and verify it.

"His nails are actually two or three centimeters long. Look at the half-moons and indentations on his nails. They are obviously newly grown. Look at his pale skin. If you rub it, it's all dead skin. Although the body still metabolizes, isn't his metabolism too fast?"

"So I guess they were attacked by chemical toxins before they died, but I can't tell what kind of chemical toxins it is, because so far I have never encountered something that can cause a person's whole body to fail and accelerate metabolism at the same time..."

Rebecca used the medical knowledge she had learned to professionally analyze the situation. Although everyone didn't quite understand, they all understood that the two men had been poisoned.

Xiao Feng on the side narrowed his eyes, knowing that these two people were likely to become zombies and were killed in advance.

"That's not the problem. Look at these two people. They are holding guns but their expressions are so panicked. This shows that they encountered an irresistible attack. They were shot in the forehead even though they were facing upside down. This shows that the opponent is extremely powerful and was able to kill them perfectly in an instant. So... they are..."

Speyer said coldly, he only cared about whether the enemy was strong and whether he should prepare in advance, but he had a little doubt...

"Let me tell you. They were trying to escape from something, but were blocked and shot here. First of all, why would two people in research suits hold guns? Secondly, Rebecca just said that they were all poisoned by chemical toxins, so they must need urgent treatment. Finally..."

Xiao Feng continued what Spier said, while Rebecca pulled up the trouser legs of one corpse, rolled up the sleeves of another corpse, and then spoke seriously.

"In the end, they were attacked by their own people, and the method was... very special? I guess this is also the reason why they were in a hurry to escape."

Everyone looked at him sideways, not sure what Rebecca meant by "special".

"Look, there are bite marks of mammals on the feet of this corpse. Judging from the arrangement and number of the tooth marks, there are six bite marks on the top and six bite marks on the bottom. Isn't it a human? Look at the scratch marks on the arm of the other corpse. They are broad, shallow, and smooth. If it was a beast, it would habitually hook its claws to firmly grasp its prey. This is its nature."

"But humans have long lost this function, so..."

At this moment, Alice's face was full of surprise and she said those words!

"You mean... they were attacked? Or were they scratched and bitten?"

Rebecca's childish and cute face was now full of seriousness, and she nodded solemnly.

"Hey~ Have you guys finished the autopsy? I've fixed the freight elevator's wiring!"

Sullivan ran over in a hurry. Seeing that everyone was either confused or surprised, he couldn't help but feel very curious. Enrique stopped thinking and stepped forward to continue summarizing and giving instructions.

"So what happened is that the Umbrella researchers were attacked by chemical toxins and brutally attacked by humans. They finally took the freight elevator to escape here, but were ambushed and killed. So now, our mission has officially changed from rescuing hostages to counter-terrorism rescue. There is a high possibility that there is an illegal Umbrella group building under this freight elevator."

"We need to search this building for possible survivors and be on guard against attacks from weirdos and ambushes from invaders. Is that clear?"

"Clear!"

"Okay, let's go!"

Chapter 38: Impotent before even entering?

There is a small house on the large freight elevator that runs diagonally downward. There are seats for five or six people in the house, which looks like a train.

Everyone tacitly agreed not to go in, for fear of an unexpected accident and being unable to avoid an attack in a small space.

"If it's so dangerous in there, why do we bring Alice with us?"

Suddenly, the carefree Edward thought of this and asked everyone.

Enrique glanced at him, then looked at Xiao Feng and Alice without saying anything, while Sullivan on the side rushed to answer.

"Who knows if she really has lost her memory? If we come down, she..."

Xiao Feng glared at Sullivan coldly, and the rest of his sentence died in his throat.

"Me? I don't remember anything... I don't know if I'm good or bad..."

Alice has been following everyone and found that the underground of her house is so complicated. She can't help but start to doubt her identity and her tone becomes gradually depressed.

Xiao Feng gently patted Alice's smooth shoulders to comfort her.

Without solid evidence, he couldn't prove Alice's innocence. However, when Alice was at the door of the mansion, she struggled in his arms, which made him doubt... Alice might not be a normal person...

The atmosphere on the freight elevator suddenly became tense, as if everyone was suddenly suspicious of Alice. Only Rebecca frowned and touched her chin, seeming to be still immersed in the autopsy. Her serious look was completely different from her usual cuteness.

Fortunately, underground buildings are often not built very deep, and the freight train soon arrived at an entrance with a coded gate that looked very high-tech.

Richard skillfully took out the code breaker from his tactical bag and cracked the code in a short while.

As the door opened, what came into view were all kinds of parcels and boxes, piled up in neat little piles at the door. It looked like a sundry warehouse.

Everyone made a quick tactical leap forward, occupying various cargo piles to serve as advantageous terrain and cover, and then using tactical sign language, they advanced in groups of five taking turns to provide cover, while Xiao Feng slowly followed up, holding up a large shield to protect the two women.

What’s strange is that although there was a dead body at the end of the freight elevator, there was not even a trace of blood or movement here.

But this actually made Enrique, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, feel a little relieved, because his team was currently advancing in the dark, and they were most afraid of being caught off guard in an encounter. This warehouse could just serve as an escape point to cover the evacuation and a battlefield for positional warfare.

So, under Enrique's sign language command, everyone quickly cleared the terrain and reached a strange corridor.

There were aquariums on both sides of the corridor, filled with yellow-green liquid.

Among the five-man team, Edward and his two companions stepped in first, followed by Enrique and his two companions. As Richard was observing and moving forward, he noticed a figure suddenly floating out of the aquarium on the right, so he quickly alerted and aimed!

I saw a bloated female corpse slowly floating in the dirty water to the thick layer of glass and gently approaching.

Xiao Feng, who was cleaning up the rear, noticed something was wrong, so he told Rebecca to "watch the back" and quickly rushed to the front.

"It was a woman, dead."

Spier said calmly, then stopped paying attention and pointed his gun at the front of the corridor. Everyone also let down their guard after hearing this, except Xiao Feng who suddenly said something.

"and many more."

He inserted the blade of the gun into the holster and tapped the glass lightly with his tactical gloved hand!

Suddenly! The female corpse in the aquarium opened her eyes, was stunned for a moment, saw the people outside the glass, and began to pick at the glass slowly, making "Rua——Rua——" sounds with her mouth.

Everyone in the team was shocked and pointed their guns at the aquarium!

Rebecca at the back gave a serious reminder.

"The pupils are dilated and only the whites of the eyes are left, which means that the person is dead. The swelling of the body looks like it has only been soaked for about a day."

"Oh my God... She's already dead, how can she still move! Isn't there corpse water in here..."

Sullivan, the black man next to Enrique, showed an exaggerated expression, and the others also began to murmur in their hearts and began to feel a little afraid of this bizarre phenomenon.

"That's what I encountered the night before last. I think it would be more appropriate to call her the living dead or a zombie."

"What? Wasn't that a terrorist you met the night before last?"

Xiao Feng stared at the female zombie that was constantly stirring in the aquarium, and said solemnly, while Edward beside him was full of confusion! He stared at the zombie while asking, not daring to move his eyes, for fear that it would jump out.

"That was Aislon's post-arrangement. I have no choice. Now for your safety, I have to tell you."

"What safety? Look at her silly look! Just like...just like...the sorcerer in the movie who staggers for a long time and can't even take a few steps...She should be fine..."

Sullivan spoke with a trembling mouth.

Xiao Feng glanced at him, then took off his gloves and put them against the glass of the aquarium.

"Be careful! What if..."

"No, the resistance, water pressure, and density of the reinforced glass make it almost impossible for the zombies to get out."

Xiao Feng calmly dismissed Richard's reminder, and after touching the glass, he said as everyone was puzzled.

"I wonder if you have noticed the sudden drop in temperature since entering this corridor? I touched the glass and it was still a little cold. After checking the thickness, I found that the water in the insulating glass might be around zero degrees. Water absorbs heat slowly and also dissipates heat slowly. The temperature in front of the corridor might be only between ten and twenty degrees below zero."

After everyone felt it for a moment, they found it was indeed a bit cold, and they all looked at him with concern and confusion, not understanding what Xiao Feng really wanted to say.

"What I mean is, if zombies can still maintain a certain level of activity in water of this temperature, what would it be like at normal temperature? This is just one of the reasons."

"Secondly, the warehouse alone is so spacious and has so much cargo, which means that this underground building is not only large, but also likely has many people working in it. However, with the temperature so low and monsters like this existing, there is no way there are any living people."

"Finally, I want to tell you something very scary."

As he spoke, Xiao Feng deliberately rewrote the events of the night before to make it so that after he had finished his patrol, he encountered someone calling for help on the road and being chased. He got out of the car and saw that it was two zombies chasing four people. He was not aware of the situation and rushed to rescue them but was almost bitten by the zombies.

In the panic, one of the four seemed to have been attacked by zombies, and began to attack others after turning into a zombie. When Xiao Feng had just figured out that only a headshot could kill the zombies, he discovered a fire in the rear, and realized that zombies would infect people if they bit them, so he hurried back to defend.

However, because they didn't bring enough bullets, they only killed the zombies and failed to save the other bitten person, which eventually led to the escape of three people...

After the story was told, the scene fell into silence. Even a fool would understand that zombie bites can be contagious, and this place might be full of zombies. Why bother investigating this?

So, everyone turned their eyes to Enrique nervously, and Enrique silently wiped the sweat from his forehead! He said in a dull and powerful voice!

"withdraw!"

"Yes, Sir!"×N

The scene of unity and solidarity before him made Xiao Feng feel suffocated in an instant!

He originally wanted to say that the low temperature environment inside should be able to trap the zombies, because the zombies in the aquarium were already in slow motion at 0.5 times the speed.

Then they would take a sample from the zombies that might be frozen, take photographic evidence, and go back to sue Umbrella. Who knew these people would be so cowardly!

Could it be that... King Ada's instructions mean that the mission will be invalidated?

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Enrique raised his hand to signal everyone, then raised the life detector with a serious look, and saw a red dot inside that was rapidly moving towards the center of the circle!

"Someone is heading here! Judging from the direction, it should be the other freight elevator we just came from! Everyone, be alert!"

Chapter 39 When the old man heard the young woman next door calling

Everyone rushed out of the corridor and pointed their guns at the warehouse door!

And three figures suddenly appeared at the door of the warehouse!

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Uncle Barry, a sturdy and strong man wearing a large explosion-proof suit, holding a shotgun, and with many bullet bags hanging on his body.

Captain Wesker is tall and burly, wearing sunglasses, a black tactical vest and holding a rifle.

And the heroic Pepper Jill wearing a small beret, a special rescue uniform, a waistcoat and holding a pistol!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Enrique was full of questions.

"Wesker? How did you get here so quickly? I remember the journey took at least half an hour, right?"

Wesker led the calm Barry and the slightly anxious Jill forward with an expressionless face. Wesker turned his head to look at the corridor and said solemnly.

"We came here by helicopter. Others were searching the mansion, so we came here to provide support. By the way, what is that?"

Seeing that Wesker noticed the restless zombies in the corridor aquarium, Enrique glanced at Barry and Jill and told them everything about Xiao Feng's analysis and previous events.

Jill's face turned paler the more she listened. She couldn't help glancing at Xiao Feng with worry, but she forced herself to look back and pretended not to look at him.

Barry opened his mouth exaggeratedly with a look of surprise, as if he was the one being chased by zombies in the story.

After listening to this, Wesker looked at Xiao Feng silently, then strode towards the corridor, and the others followed.

"Show me the life detector."

Enrique handed over the detector, Wesker took it, glanced at it calmly, then put the detector into his tactical vest and turned his head to speak.

"Before we came here, we received a call saying that a resident nearby accidentally received an unusual signal while listening to the radio. He adjusted the frequency and heard a sentence. It said something like this."

"I'm Annette. I'm currently in the basement of the mansion at 23 East Spire Street. It's full of monsters and it's extremely cold... I haven't eaten or drunk anything for almost a day... Help me..."

After hearing this, Enrique frowned and spread his hands.

"How can we save them? With only a dozen of us, are we going to face hundreds of fearless monsters in a small area?"

"But this is an order from Eslon, and this matter must be explained."

Wesker still had no expression on his face, as if he would not be the one facing the monster later.

"Who wants to listen to that dead pig? If he hadn't suppressed the matter from Bruce, would we be in this situation? Look at me, can the bulletproof vest I'm wearing protect me from the teeth of zombies? If I had said it earlier, I would at least be like Barry, wearing an explosion-proof suit that is as resistant to impact as plate armor!"
