Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Around the bridge.

The gate is closed tightly, and there are dents and scratches on the gate, more blood stains and minced meat, but the main structure is still in good condition, indicating that the bridge has not fallen.

So Lyon asked the elite and the two groups of undead to guard the rear, and he used his highest authority to successfully unlock the closed gate through the terminal on the right bulkhead.

Crack...squeak...

With a burst of frustration and piercing metal whistles, the gates slowly opened to both sides, and all the living people in the bridge also pointed their guns at Leon and the others nervously.

However, when a young agent saw Leon's face clearly, he quickly lowered his gun and said excitedly, Sir! It's sir! Sir is still alive!

Director Kennedy?!

We are saved!

At this time, everyone in the bridge finally lowered their guns to avoid accidental injury.

Lyon also nodded to everyone in the bridge, and then let all the undead and the elite retreat to the bridge. In the end, the gate was closed again, temporarily blocking the threat of the mutant.

With a sound of Boom!, the gate was completely sealed.

Lyon, standing in front of the gate, hung the laser micro-punch on his chest, scanning and counting the survivors in the bridge.

Roughly speaking, at least a hundred people survived, most of them were the crew members on duty, some hunter soldiers wearing simple protective gear, and two researchers wearing white coats, but the white coats were already covered with dried blood. .

After counting, Leon's mood was disturbed again, because there was no red figure on the bridge.

But now he is the backbone of everyone, so he didn't, and couldn't show any uneasiness. Instead, he walked to the center console very calmly, and said to the chief officer with the highest rank: Report the situation, I need to know what happened to the Udora. what happened.

Yes. The first officer followed Leon, walked to the center console together, and then operated the center console to bring up the holographic screen, preparing to play the corresponding surveillance video for Leon, while reporting:

Sir, about thirteen hours ago, a violent psychic impact erupted from the cargo hold of the Udora. Afterwards, nearly 95% of the crew and soldiers who suffered from the psychic impact suffered from various degrees of trauma. Distortion, please see, sir.

As the first officer spoke, the holographic screen presented in front of Leon began to broadcast the explosion in the cargo hold seven hours ago.

In the cargo hold, the trackers and tyrants standing in the corner were motionless and vigilant, while the four-man hunter soldiers equipped with power armor were patrolling slowly.

Suddenly, among all the containers and airtight boxes, the one with the largest volume and the one that Ada feared, a scarlet light overflowed through the gap.

This movement instantly attracted the attention of the trackers, tyrants, and hunter soldiers.

But immediately afterwards, the scarlet light transformed into a substantially aggressive spiritual energy impact, and then, this spiritual energy impact immediately overturned the trackers, and then quickly radiated to the entire Udora.

At this time, the surveillance video zoomed in on a pair of soldiers who were lying unconscious, as if to observe the state of the soldiers.

But as soon as the field of vision was narrowed, the four fallen soldiers couldn't help twitching. The bone-like tissue was deformed, proliferated, and still tinged with blood. It pierced through the power armor from the inside out and was exposed to the air. , Immediately afterwards, the soldiers stood up crookedly, and looked around blindly.

After observing such a scene, the surveillance video quickly adjusted back to the original field of view, so as to overlook the entire cargo hold.

It turned out that in just a few seconds, the hunter soldiers who were in charge of patrolling the cargo hold were all affected by the impact of the spiritual energy, and all of them suffered irreversible distortions.

On the other hand, the stalker and the tyrant did not undergo any changes due to the impact of spiritual energy. However, it was precisely because of this that all the deformed soldiers regarded the stalker as hostile targets.

In an instant, the hunter soldiers who were originally the most elite, the most determined, and specialized in hunting demons in different spaces were now reduced to unconscious distortions, attacking the trackers and tyrants who belonged to their colleagues.

Facing this kind of melee attack, trackers and tyrants can almost completely crush them. Although the aberrant soldiers have the strength increase of power armor, they cannot pose an effective threat in terms of numbers.

But…

Surveillance captured more and more aberrations, rushing from other compartments to the cargo compartment, and soon formed a bloody ocean, desperately trying to engulf the trackers.

At this moment, the container seemed to regard the tracker with the highest output and crit as a threat, and then burst out a small burst of spiritual energy again.

Roar!!!

The stalker who was suppressed by psychic power raised his head and roared furiously, but his anger couldn't help him get rid of the psychic suppression. In the end, hundreds of deformities swallowed him up, and he was never seen again.

The monitoring was plunged into darkness due to psychic power, and since then, the bridge has completely lost the control of the cargo hold.

After watching this video, Leon's already gloomy face became a little more dignified.

stalker...

Although it is a biological weapon, the tracker is also Umbrella's veteran and the mascot of Umbrella and their Supervision Department. Killed through the plane of hell with D-1999.

Never thought that the tracker would die so easily and simply, which made Leon feel a burst of sadness.

Sir. The first mate continued to report without waiting for Leon to continue to ask: After that, we lost the steering right to the Udora, and were forced to block the leap flight by a psychic position. Pulled into the universe that is suspected to be a different space.

Due to the sudden incident and the fact that we lost contact with you, Commander Wang, and the captain, we had no choice but to seal off the bridge after admitting enough survivors to avoid the complete fall of the Udora. the point.

You did a good job. Leon affirmed, and then he operated the center console, called up the blueprint of the Udora, and said:

However, according to your description, the number of survivors on the Udora with 40,000 people will be less than 2,000, or even less.

Aw~! Indeed. The elite who broke out from the siege gave an ow and echoed slightly sadly: I came out of the training cabin, alas... many comrades in arms have turned into monsters, so I have to If you don't kill them, in the end, I will be the only one left.

Director Kennedy... Another crew member said worriedly, What should we do?

Don't panic. Leon turned to look at the two researchers at the side, and asked, What do you think of the mutants that ravaged the Udora?

Hearing this, the two researchers glanced at each other, and then an older researcher said to Leon: Director Kennedy, we don't have enough biological samples, and we don't have the experimental conditions to conduct research.

But according to our observations, aberrants should not be demons in the traditional sense, but more like the result of mutations caused by people receiving certain signal hints and stimulating nerves.

Mutation? Leon said in a deep voice.

That's right. The older researcher nodded: The vaccine can help us resist the corruption of different spaces and chaotic psionic energy, but if we bypass the vaccine and directly attack our brains, it is possible to cause the current situation. And the vaccine has not failed, otherwise we would have lost consciousness in a different space and become playthings of evil gods and demons.

Ok.

Everyone at the scene agreed with the researcher's analysis.

After getting a relatively reliable guess from the researcher, Leon turned to the first mate again and asked, Can you directly open the jump entrance and take us out of here?

No, sir. The first mate explained helplessly: The bridge has also lost control of the conventional, jump and jump engines. The current Udora is in the normal cruise mode, similar to this area. Navigate in the space domain of different space.

Then do it manually.

Seeing everyone's sad faces, the straight-tempered elite couldn't bear it, and immediately offered a suggestion that he thought was extremely reliable.

...

But this suggestion attracted everyone's attention. Even though no one spoke, the slight expression and gaze revealed the meaning of I'm afraid you are not crazy.

Am I wrong? Elite was puzzled.

Ahem. The first officer cleared his throat, first glanced at the serial number, military rank and name on the elite's left breastplate, and then helped him explain:

Sergeant Vasso, the engine room is located at the very end of the battleship, and if you want to go to the engine room, you must pass through the belly area where the cargo hold is located, unless you walk out of the cabin to get around, you can rashly leave the cabin in the space domain of a different space ...

The first officer didn't continue to say go first, but everyone knew it well, even Sergeant Vasso knew very well that the result of voluntarily exposing oneself in a different space is tantamount to suicide.

However, Vasuo still shrugged and insisted on his proposal: So what's the matter? Isn't it over if you kill it?

As he said that, Vasuo raised his finger to the undead who kept standing still, and continued: I, together with the group of warriors who can't speak, should be able to break through the siege of distortions, and! I'm a hunter unit members, only we are the ones to hunt and kill others, how can there be any reason for others to block us??

The sergeant is right. Leon took the words: In the current situation, the only way to get out of the encirclement is to go to the engine room. Otherwise, the only end waiting for us is death.

But sir... the first officer hurriedly dissuaded: There are tens of thousands of colleagues and comrades in the Yudora who have been twisted into deformed bodies, no matter how brave Sergeant Vasso and the living dead are, it is absolutely impossible to break through the tight encirclement.

I know. Leon didn't deny it, but he zoomed in on the holographic blueprint of the Udora, marked a route in red, and then said to the first officer:

Breakthrough from the front is indeed a dead end. Presumably, the outside of the current bridge should be completely blocked. However, if we use the ventilation channel under the bridge to bypass the cargo hold, we can minimize the possibility of frontal firefights with the distortion body. risk.

Besides... Lyon glanced at the people present, and said in an extremely calm tone: Don't forget that we are the Supervision Department, as Sergeant Vasso said, only we can hunt and kill others.

This is the spirit! Sir! Vasso was the first to salute and respond.

The rest of the people also saluted one after another: Yes! Sir!

Very good. Leon picked up the laser micrometer again, and began to order everyone.

Next, Leon will personally lead the team, leading Sergeant Vasso, eight undead in good condition, and six hunter soldiers to form a surprise team of 16 people in total.

On the side of the bridge, the wounded living dead and three hunter soldiers were left behind, and the chief officer commanded the ship crew to try to restore the communication, and when Leon and the others succeeded, they allowed the Udora to escape back to the first place in the real universe. Time to seek support.

…

Shortly after.

In a narrow, dark ventilation duct.

Lyon and the others were divided into four groups. The first and last groups B and C were still the eight undead with the strongest overall quality. In the center were the groups A and D of Lyon and Vasso.

When walking forward, they will also encounter the intersection of conventional passages, and a row of grid-shaped ventilation fans will be installed at the intersection, and the corridor or various cabins under the pipe can be seen through the gap.

And below...

Except that the scythe monster is an aberration, no living people were found at all.

After nearly 30 minutes, a group of people came to the top of the cargo hold. When Leon passed the ventilation fan at the intersection and slowed down to observe, he saw that the cargo hold should have been clean and tidy, but now it was reduced to a flesh and blood purgatory .

The decks and bulkheads were stained red with blood, and there were many tumor-like, translucent flesh tissues all over the place. The source of everything, that is, the largest container had long since disappeared, replaced by a black stone tablet.

Its main body seems to have two conical structures intertwined and spiraled, and the outer wall of the rock is engraved with unknown characters emitting red light.

Of course, there are densely packed aberrations in the cargo hold, and it seems that they have built a lair here.

Moreover, Leon also found that the sarcoma-like tissues were full of unconscious researchers, ground crews, agents, and hunter soldiers.

At this moment, the sarcomas collectively opened a gap, stretched out numbing and disgusting slender tentacles, randomly wrapped the comatose people and dragged them into the belly.

Leon, who was used to seeing this kind of scene, didn't change his face and his heart didn't beat, but when he found Ada who always liked to dress up in cheongsam among the comatose crowd, his expression froze immediately.

Xin Hao, sarcoma seems to only eat one person at a time, so Ada escaped by luck.

But what about next time?

How long is the activity gap of sarcoma?

Leon completed his thinking in a very short period of time. In the end, he gestured for everyone to continue to the engine room and return the Udora to the physical universe as soon as possible.

As for rescuing Ada...

Leon was more heartbroken and anxious than anyone else. He had the urge to jump off now, but he still restrained it. After all, the only result of his doing so was not only failing to save Ada, but also killing himself in vain.
