At midnight, the alarm sounded, which made people shudder with fear.
In the inpatient building, the lights in the wards were turned on one by one.
Many people were awakened with sleepy eyes, ran to the window, and looked at the source of the noise.
In the thick night, the outline of a gray building was vaguely revealed, as if it was completely swallowed by the darkness.
Sometimes, there were dense sounds like frying beans, mixed with the alarm, and drifted with the wind.
It seemed that some unknown horror was happening in that building.
Just when everyone was confused, a powerful roar came from a distance, covering up all the strange movements.
Several armed helicopters, like steel giant eagles, roared through the night sky and quickly flew over the building.
When descending, the strong winds rolled up by the rotors made the surrounding trees tremble.
On the ground, a row of armored vehicles poured into the hospital area like a steel torrent.
The Ren’an Hospital, awakened by the alarm, was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere in an instant.
The armored vehicles roared towards the rehabilitation center and surrounded the building tightly.
Teams of soldiers in camouflage uniforms filed out of the vehicles and built a defense line in agile and orderly manner.
They held assault rifles, used armored vehicles and roadblocks as cover, half-crouched on the ground, and pointed their guns at the entrances and exits of the building.
"Falcon Squad, maintain low-altitude reconnaissance and pay close attention to the movements inside the building!"
"Other units, check weapons and equipment, wait for further instructions, and do not act rashly without my order!"
In the command vehicle, Colonel Deng, the head of the military, held a walkie-talkie and quickly issued combat orders.
Then he looked at the signalman who was busy debugging the equipment and asked:
"Haven’t you contacted the garrison personnel inside yet?"
The signalman shook his head in response, still trying to search for signals.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were fixed on the building shrouded in darkness.
The armed helicopter circled in the air according to the instructions.
The strong lights under the belly of the aircraft were like swords, sweeping every dark floor window.
But at this moment, it was too quiet inside, and even sporadic gunshots were not heard.
You know, the reason why the military placed those patients infected with black rain here.
In addition to the convenient conditions of Ren’an Hospital close to Xishan, there is also a military base nearby, which can provide support at any time in any situation to ensure that they arrive at the scene as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Colonel Deng had a bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be that he was still late?
But it took only ten minutes from receiving the report to mobilizing the emergency combat troops to get here.
The marching speed was quite fast.
Even though there were unexpected mutants among the patients detained in the rehabilitation center, it is impossible to kill hundreds of garrison soldiers instantly, right?
Just when Colonel Deng was in doubt, a loud noise suddenly came from the intercom, mixed with painful cries:
"Hello… Hello… Is anyone there? We were attacked by monsters on the fifth floor, with heavy casualties, requesting support…"
The voice was intermittent, and the signal seemed to be interrupted at any time.
Colonel Deng raised his eyebrows, immediately tightened the intercom, and asked repeatedly:
"What’s going on inside? Why is there no movement? How many of you are left?"
"I don’t know… The number of those monsters is unknown, and they are very powerful. It is difficult to kill them with bullets, and the night vision goggles can’t see their figures clearly…"
"And… there is also a guy who seems to be a leader, who can roar and command other monsters. He killed many people instantly just now. You must be careful when you meet him… Several of us are too seriously injured now, so we can only hide in a room…"
The surviving soldiers panted and answered intermittently.
Colonel Deng’s face became more solemn after hearing this.
Although he had a rough idea of the situation inside, he was still hesitant and struggling.
Should he immediately send a commando team into the building to rescue and fight the unknown monsters?
Or should he continue to stay outside, use his firepower advantage to block the building, and wait for a more appropriate time?
As he weighed the pros and cons, beads of sweat could not help but ooze out of his forehead.
He knew very well that this confrontation with the monsters could not afford any mistakes.
If he was not careful and caused greater casualties or negative impacts, he would probably be stripped of his military uniform and dismissed from his post tomorrow.
And this was hinted at when he took over the garrison mission.
If he encountered an irresistible force, he could directly destroy the entire building, at all costs.
Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked anxiously at the fifth floor, where the doors and windows were reinforced and blocked.
In any case, the bottom line is that the monsters must not be allowed to escape, thus creating greater panic in society.
Otherwise, even if he is shot, he cannot bear this responsibility.
So he must get rid of those monsters in the shortest time and with the most reliable method.
With this in mind, Colonel Deng took a deep breath and made a decision immediately:
"All units listen to the order, all firepower groups continue to aim at the entrances and exits of the building, do their best to defend the defense line, and the assault team is ready to enter the building. Your task is not to kill the target, but to attract those monsters out…"
He issued a more cautious order, which can also be said to be a "luring snakes out of their holes" plan.
The purpose is to use the open area and rely on the firepower advantage to concentrate on annihilating the enemy, rather than falling into a relatively difficult and unpredictable street fighting mode.
With an order, the most elite assault team quickly assembled in front of the main gate, ready to sneak into the dark building occupied by monsters.
Other soldiers were strictlyThe guns in their hands flashed with a cold metallic luster, and the pairs of eyes hidden under the helmets stared at the front.
The whole encirclement seemed to be getting tighter and the air seemed to be solidifying.
A battle full of gunpowder was about to start.
However, at this moment.
A burst of hurried footsteps came from inside the building.
The soldiers guarding the main gate line were instantly alert, their fingers tightly gripped the trigger, and they all raised their guns.
The searchlight projected into the dark doorway, vaguely revealing two ragged and bloodstained figures.
It seemed to be survivors.
The two survivors staggered, and one of them was injured in the leg, but he still limped and insisted, desperately running out.
After they ran out from inside, they raised their hands to block the glaring light, revealing an extremely panicked expression.
When they saw the scene of being surrounded by the army, they shouted:
"Don’t shoot, it’s us, we are from the special search team!"
The two survivors were the white-haired man and the shield-bearing strong man.
"Wait, don’t fire for now, take them over."
Colonel Deng recognized the two and immediately gave orders.
The white-haired man and the shield-bearing strong man did not retreat behind the defense line immediately.
Instead, they turned their heads and looked at the hall behind them, which was still shrouded in darkness, and shouted vigorously:
"Sir, come out quickly, the support troops outside are here!"
The two shouted with hoarse voices, and their tone was full of anxiety and concern.
At this time, a rather violent movement came from inside the building.
It seemed that an iron whip was whipping the air, making a frightening whistling sound.
It was like a heavy hammer hitting the ground, causing brick and stone debris to fly everywhere.
It sounded like some kind of dangerous battle beyond the imagination of ordinary people was taking place in the corridor.
Then, a man’s voice floated from the depths of darkness:
"You two don’t have to wait for me, quickly evacuate to a safe place."
The voice seemed relatively calm, and then raised the volume a little, shouting to the outside of the building:
"Everyone prepare for battle, wait for me to bring the target out, and you will concentrate your firepower to attack!"
The person who shouted seemed to be of high status, and his tone was unquestionable. He actually directly ordered the armed forces stationed outside.
Hearing this, the white-haired man and the shield-holding strong man immediately obeyed and did as they were told.
While retreating quickly, the two shouted to other soldiers and repeated this order.
Obviously, a special search team leader was desperately trying to hold back the monster chasing him in order to cover the evacuation of two subordinates.
Colonel Deng narrowed his eyes slightly and then changed the battle plan through the intercom:
"The assault team will temporarily retreat and wait for orders. Everyone else should hold the line and follow my instructions.Prepare for battle."
Just as he made the move.
There was a "crash" sound, as if glass was smashed by a heavy object.
A figure suddenly flew out of the darkness and ran towards the main entrance of the building.
"Yes, sir, don’t fire yet!"
Seeing this, the white-haired man and the shield-holding strong man shouted nervously.
They were afraid that these soldiers would shoot in advance and accidentally hurt their own people.
The figure was already very fast, like a flash of lightning passing through the terrifying dark hall.
When he arrived at the door, he squatted and stepped on the ground. He was like a spring, and he accelerated again.
The soldiers behind the defense line had not reacted yet, and they had already rushed out of the door and came to the roadblock.
"The monster is out, fire quickly! "
The figure’s breath seemed unusually stable, and he could still shout loudly while running a 100-meter sprint.
Before he finished speaking, he quickly jumped over several roadblocks and jumped behind the defense line.
The soldiers were shocked and almost couldn’t help pulling the trigger.
Fortunately, they were all well-trained elite soldiers and would not shoot rashly before receiving combat orders.
Looking at a hideous figure chasing out of the building.
Colonel Deng’s pupils shrank, his heart skipped a beat, and he shouted decisively:
"Open fire, and focus on attacking the monster behind! "
Almost the next second after the figure crossed the defense line, gunshots suddenly rang out like popcorn.
Several heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles roared instantly, flames licked the front frantically, and bullets poured over like raindrops.
The soldiers also pulled the triggers one after another, and the assault rifles spewed hot flames, interweaving into a dazzling and deadly fire net.
Bang bang bang bang bang——
Countless bullets swept the concrete floor, splashing rubble and bricks, leaving dense holes, as if a metal storm had blown through.
Under such violent firepower, it is hard to imagine that any monster can survive.
The white-haired man and the shield-holding strong man looked at the scene in front of them, feeling quite excited.
<br >
Then he greeted the officer who had also escaped safely from the devil’s cave, wanting to express his gratitude.
"Hush——"
Fang Cheng pursed his lips at them, indicating that the battle was not over yet.
The two of them were startled, and immediately turned their heads and looked in front of the defense line.
In the hail of bullets, the extremely terrifying monster stood firm, seemingly safe and sound.
The dark red bone spurs formed an extremely tight shield, protecting its entire body.
The bullets hit it, only splashing a series of sparks, like fleeting fireworks in the night sky.
Then, the monster roared.
The sound waves vibrated like a substance, shaking the broken glass on the surrounding buildings to fall.
Many soldiers who were close to him had their ears ringing due to the force, and they lost their balance and fell to the ground.
A round of firepower volleys did not cause much damage to him.
The general calmly retracted the bone spurs and looked at the big battle outside. He was a little shocked.
Realizing that their attack strength was just so so, he immediately laughed:
"Hey, just a few muskets dare to deal with me, it’s really a fantasy. Humans in this era are still so weak…"
His bones are like some kind of hard metal material. Even if he doesn’t use the bone spur shield, ordinary bullets hitting him are like mosquito bites.
Fang Cheng’s eyes are slightly condensed, and he ordered in a deep voice:
"Not enough firepower, use artillery and missiles."
Without his reminder, Colonel Deng has already issued a battle order.
Several infantry fighting vehicles roared forward, and the self-propelled artillery on the roof began to rotate, and the muzzle sprayed hot flames.
The powerful shells suddenly brought a breath of destruction and whistled towards the monster.
But in the smoke and fire, the figure of the general was still standing proudly.
Several shells only left a few shallow dents and cracks on the hard bone spur shield.
"Not enough, still not enough, try harder, let me see your highest strength."
After blocking the attack again, he couldn’t help but be more proud, and the sound of ridicule became even louder.
So he swayed his body slightly, took another artillery, took a step forward, and said sternly:
"Otherwise, I will show my power…"
It seemed that he had sensed the weakness of human weapons and was ready to start the attack, enjoying a feast of gluttonous killing.
But before he finished speaking, there was a "whoosh".
A whistling missile, dragging flames, flew in front of him.
Boom——
The scarlet flames bloomed, and a hot air wave rushed into the sky.
Accompanied by a violent explosion, billowing smoke swept around like a sandstorm, and broken concrete fragments fell like rain hundreds of meters away.
The air wave was so strong that even the nearby roadblocks were overturned.
In the aftermath of the explosion, the smoke gradually dissipated, revealing a bony body, standing in the ruins, with eyes emitting a creepy green light.
The bone spurs that originally served as a shield seemed to be shattered into a spider web.
Everyone looked with wide eyes and found that the other party had moved again.
Then he leaped into the air like an onion in a dry land and flew in another direction.
It seemed that he finally realized the danger and wanted to escape.
The veins on Colonel Deng’s forehead bulged and he shouted:
"Keep firing missiles, don’t stop!"
If one is not enough, then two, if two are not enough, then three.
It seems that if he doesn’t kill the enemy completely,The momentum of not stopping until the people are blasted into pieces.
The pilot received the order and pressed the launch button again.
This time, two powerful missiles with human anger shot towards the monster.
The general who leaped into the air was locked and hit by the missile. Unexpectedly, the two suddenly collided, and a loud noise of shaking the earth broke out in an instant.
The powerful impact force sent its body flying dozens of meters, and it hit the wall of the building heavily.
Then with a "click", it fell down, and the skeleton was scattered all over the ground.
For a long time, it did not move again.
The general who seemed to be a demon god and arrogant seemed to die in hatred.
