Chapter 137 - The Final Defense Line
Chapter 137: The Final Defense Line
“Rumble!”
Occam threw the metal meatball out.
The metal ball of flesh hit the tunnel and kept rolling. Soon, it was gone.
“Huff!”
Looking at the crawler meatball gradually disappear into the distance, Occam could no longer hold on. He sat down and panted crazily.
The Magnetic King’s genetic ability was really very powerful, but it was precisely because it was very powerful that the consumption was huge.
With his current mental power, he could not control it freely.
He had to train harder in the future.
Occam could feel that he was tired every time he used his power.
However, after resting enough, the next time he used it would be even longer.
After he recovered this time, he would definitely not be so tired when he used the same move again.
Alice was very tired but she did not sit down.
She looked at the dead Rayne in the front of the carriage, her eyes complicated and sad.
In the end, she still did not make it.
Just as Alice was feeling sad, a warm hand placed on her shoulder.
Occam looked at Alice and said nothing. He gave her a comforting hug.
Occam knew that at this moment, whatever he said, it would only provoke and hurt. Sometimes a comforting hug was more effective than ten thousand words of comfort.
Feeling Occam’s warm embrace, Alice felt relieved. The sadness on her face gradually disappeared and she returned to being the strong and resolute Alice.
“Creak…”
The brakes of the train sounded and the train gradually slowed down. Soon, it stopped at the station.
“There’s not much time left, let’s hurry up and leave!”
Chad parked the train and left the driver’s side. He got on the platform and spoke to everyone.
“Bring the box and let’s go!”
Occam knew that there was no time, so he did not say anything and stepped out.
Alice hugged the box and followed.
Matt helped Chad follow him out of the station.
Everyone jogged out.
“Boom!”
When they passed through the door, the time remaining finally reached zero. The huge bombproof door began to descend slowly.
It was very difficult to bomb the bombproof door. Once it was closed, it was almost impossible to get out.
This was the final defense line of the hive.
Seeing the door slowly descend, everyone heaved a sigh of relief and had mixed feelings.
Some were sad for the dead and some were happy that they had finally survived. The mixed feeling of the two extremes made it hard to tell if they were happy or not.
“Let’s go! The real danger has just begun,” said Occam as he saw that Alice had been watching the door descend.
For a zombie crisis, it was easy to solve. He just had to kill the zombies.
However, it was much more troublesome for humans.
“What do you mean, Occam? What do you mean, it’s just begun?”
Alice froze at the words and chased after him. She did not understand what Occam meant by that.
Weren’t they out of danger?
Why was the danger just beginning?
“Ah!”
Occam was about to explain when Matt suddenly covered his arm and fell to the ground with a cry.
His wound kept wriggling, and flesh grew out from it.
It was from the crawler. Clearly, he was infected.
“You’re infected. You’ll be fine. We won’t lose you.”
Seeing this, Alice hurriedly opened the box and took out the medicine, ready to inject the antidote into Matt.
“Bang!”
However, at this moment, the door was opened and a group of people in protective clothes and gas masks rushed in.
“Help me!”
Matt thought it was the paramedic. He was overjoyed and called out.
However, these people had no intention of helping at all. They charged forward.
Not only did they not help, but they also pushed Alice away.
They started to arrest people.
“What are you guys doing? Hurry up and help him.”
Alice was stunned. What was wrong with these people? Weren’t they here to help them? Why did they stop her from saving Chad?
However, there were too many people and she could not resist.
He could only watch helplessly as Matt was subdued and taken away.
“Pfft!”
However, just as the people in the protective clothing thought that they could control the scene, a cold light flashed and the tip of the sword pierced through the chest of a protective personnel.
“Oh?!”
The man looked back at Occam’s cold face, stunned.
He did not expect the survivors to attack them without hesitation.
And the person attacking was an Asian?
How did the Asian get to their laboratory?
It was a pity that he would never know.
Occam continued to raise his sword, killing one at a time, completely merciless.
He was no longer the innocent student who had just transmigrated. After the slaughter along the way, he had become incomparably determined.
Others might not know, but he did. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖
These people were not paramedics but experimenters from the umbrella company.
They did not arrest them to save them, but to experiment on them.
In the original plot, Alice was captured by them to inject the T-Virus and had her head modified with a chip. Besides her, Matt was also made into a monster for killing.
Now that he was here, such a thing could not be allowed to happen.
Therefore, Occam did not hesitate to kill these experimenters.
“Occam, are you crazy?”
Chad watched Occam cut all the paramedics down with his sword and was dumbfounded. He thought Occam had gone crazy.
These people were here to save them. They just did not know the situation and thus created a misunderstanding.
“Murder!”
The last person did not expect Occam to be so decisive and fled in panic.
Occam threw his sword and it instantly passed through the last enemy.
“Occam, are you crazy? Why are you attacking the paramedics?”
Alice’s beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Occam in disbelief.
It was hard for her to connect the righteous Occam with a murderer.
“Do you really think that’s the paramedics who came to save you? They’re researchers from the umbrella company. They’re going to capture us for an experiment. If you don’t want him to become a monster, inject him quickly,” said Occam coldly as he shook the blood off his sword.
Alice was not stupid. She finally understood after Occam’s explanation.
These people were indeed suspicious. If they were here to save them, why did they arrest them immediately?
Thinking this through, Alice broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, Occam had found out in time, or they would have been taken by now.
She quickly picked up the syringe and injected it into Matt.
“Sir, there’s a problem with the special exit.”
Outside the house, in a temporary command post not far away, a surveillance officer sitting in front of a computer suddenly stood up and reported.
“What is it?” Kane paused and asked doubtfully.
He had sent so many people over, so there was no reason why he could not catch the few of them.
“There was an Asian among the survivors. He seemed to see through our intentions. Without a word, he drew his sword and killed everyone we sent in,” said the surveillance staff truthfully.
“What?! Asian? Killed our people?”
Kane was dumbfounded. He was an executive of the umbrella company and knew the laboratory very well. Since when had their company recruited Asians?
