C24 Wilderness
If it was a competition of speed and reflexes, zero was not Hans's match. In terms of battle experience and calculation, zero was far above him.
The narrow emergency passage was not a choice in times of emergency. A battle of zero was always based on reason and strategy. On the battlefield, impulsiveness could only cost one's life. Computing and strategy, on the other hand, are the weapons of survival.
The narrow passageway was unfavorable for combat, but here, zero could reduce the number of hits in at least one area.
He leaned against one wall, one hand making shooting motions in front and to the side. But he knew that Hans, whose agility was far above his, would definitely be able to dodge it in advance. And other than the front and the sides, the only place Hans could finally move was behind him.
Therefore, the other gun was already waiting there and gave Hans a bullet. This was the difference between an experienced veteran and a rookie. At the same time, it was the result of careful calculation and not pure luck.
Zero never believed in luck.
After giving Hans one shot, he added a few more, hitting Hans's head and heart respectively. This was based on the assessment of the physical structure of the organism. No matter what kind of mutated creature it was, if its cerebral nerves were severed and its heart was destroyed, it would die no matter how strong it was.
But looking at the Hans who had turned into a bloody mess, Zero did not dare to be sure. The prickling sensation under the clothes had not yet subsided, indicating that the danger was still there. But he really did not understand what kind of monster Hans was going to turn into in order to be able to survive under this kind of injury that could cause ordinary people to die a hundred times.
It was clear that Hans's body was constructed outside of the laws of knowledge. Seeing the broken skull heal once again, and the muscles growing out of his chest from the explosion, Zero frowned and turned around to leave the emergency passage.
The tavern was not the right battlefield, but that did not matter. Zero will personally find a suitable battlefield for himself and Hans.
Coming out from the emergency passage, Leah was no longer in the tavern. Su Yun could be at ease, Leah was a smart girl, she would definitely know that her existence would drag Su Ming down. This way, Zero could focus on dealing with Hans.
Even though it was his plan, he couldn't say who would be the one to deal with him. After Zero left the emergency passage, the gate of the passage suddenly cracked. A figure suddenly appeared from the inside. It was Hans, or maybe not.
Su Yun looked at the Hans in shock.
Previously, he had seen Hans's damaged flesh being repaired through proliferation, but the process now was a little too excessive. Hans's wound had already been filled with new flesh and blood, but he still continued to multiply. With the excess meat and bones, Hans's body that was not strong, the skin that was wrapped around his body could no longer support the growth of his muscles.
Hans's body had doubled in size, but the lower half of his body still remained as it was before. It was hard to imagine how his thin lower body was able to support his upper body that had become like a ferocious bear. The bone spikes pierced through Hans's skull one by one, and then extended into the back of his head and all the way to his femur.
Hans who was like this, could no longer see his human form, but looked like a monster.
He shouted at Zero, "I'm going to tear you apart, Soldier. And then I'll eat you up. "
"If you can do it, come." At the same time, he turned around and ran out of the tavern and ran at a speed of 60 km/h through the entrance of the base.
Behind him was Hans's furious roar and the sound of ten thousand galloping horses' footsteps. However, Hans's body had undergone a drastic change, causing his speed to drop a little. Furthermore, his reflexes were not as sharp as before. Therefore, every time he passed by a turn in the passage, Hans would directly crash into the alloy wall, break free, and then chase towards zero.
As a result, the speed of zero increased by a sliver.
Whether it was the tavern or the other places in the base, none of them were suitable for this battlefield. With Hans's strength and recovery ability, it was impossible for her to fight him in close combat. If he wanted to snipe from afar, the wilderness outside the base would probably be more suitable.
Therefore, Zero continued to sprint towards the exit of the base. When he followed Allen's corpse, he also picked up the young soldier's sniper rifle, opened the safety lock, and pressed the bullet into the barrel. Those bullets that Allen did not have the time to shoot, Zero decided to give them to Hans.
Zero definitely did not believe that there was an immortal creature in this world. If there really was, then humans would have already gone extinct and there would be no Z7 base. In other words, Hans's body structure had only changed. What Zero needed to do was to find his weakness and kill him!
In the blink of an eye, the exit was in sight.
Zero quickly typed in the "Open door" command on the operating platform. Accompanied by the sound of the hydraulic machine, the main entrance of the base first shrank three meters inside, then separated. When the door revealed the crack in the door where only one person was left, Zero did not hesitate to enter the dazzling sunlight.
When Hans came chasing over, the door was just halfway open. He, who had already turned into a monster, used his nose to sniff. After catching a whiff of the smell, he roared and ran like a human tank towards the endless wilderness outside the base.
Hans had been preparing for this plan to massacre the base for a long time. Two years ago, after he was driven out of the base by Old Jack, he had been wandering about in the wilderness. As his records had already been uploaded to the Parkland's valve's database through the computer, and other companies and bases could share information about the normal level through some contracts, Hans would also be informed about the virus.
Therefore, in this land of the Middle Kingdom, there was no base or company that would take Hans in. Of course, a settlement without any constraints might be an exception. Because those places didn't have a complete computer network or equipment to check for viruses, Hans couldn't sneak in. However, if the residents of the area that was not restricted by the rules found out that Hans was carrying an illness, he would definitely be cut into pieces and fed to the Corpse wolf.
Therefore, Hans could only wander around in the wilderness. There were many times where he almost died under the claws of Corpse wolf or other mutated beasts, but Hans managed to survive. While he was already in despair, the opportunity to change had already appeared in his body. Through an adult's gift, Hans obtained something that was referred to as a "core", and he became like this.
Possessing both the third stage Strength and Agility, and also the ability to regenerate and multiply bones. However, the man told him that he wasn't a real Adept, nor was he a mutated creature. Hans's ability completely originated from that mysterious substance — — nucleus.
Following that, the lord mysteriously disappeared. Before he left, he only told Hans to go ahead and do what he wanted.
To Hans, there was nothing more important than revenge for Z7. So he came back and waited patiently for his chance. After wandering around the base for more than half a month, using his memories, Hans killed a soldier on a daily patrol this morning and sneaked into the base using his clothes and proof of identity.
And then, there was a massacre.
However, the plan now was incomplete. There were still some miners who had safely stayed in the mining area due to the separation of the Workspace's gate. Even in the base, Leah and Zero did not kill them.
The man whom Hans had found in the hibernation chamber before, was now challenging Hans's bottom line.
Hans's head hurt, his nerves felt like they were on fire. Just now, in the emergency passage, Zero had hit him accurately in the chest and shot him in the head and heart. Hans was really shocked, he did not know the extent of the damage his physical body could take either. However, when he recovered, his fear turned into anger.
Something in his head seemed to have broken. That thing was called rationality. The current Hans only wanted to kill zero.
To kill this man who gave him a sense of danger.
However, he did not realize that after losing the shackles of reason, he had embarked on a very dangerous path.
His head hurt, the sunlight in the wilderness was blinding, and that damned man. Where are you?
Hans roared, he did not notice that his own voice had become the howl of a monster.
A bullet shot out from an unknown place, accurately piercing into Hans's head. Amidst the blood mist, Hans's center of gravity became unsteady due to the huge impact. His feet staggered as he fell to the other side, falling onto the road along the cracked road.
Moments later, the sound of the sniper rifle came from afar and was tinged with ridicule.
This is the wilderness. Danger can occur at any time, and the god of death will always be at your left!
