Chapter 195 Living Parasites, a Foul-Smelling Hideout
Captain Tiesheng stood at the entrance of Building No. 12.
He raised his right fist.
The screen of the miniature tactical terminal on his wrist was lit up.
The green dot representing vital signs is rapidly turning red.
He exhaled a breath of stale air.
The special forces soldiers behind him were holding rifles.
My finger rests on the outside of the trigger guard.
No one spoke.
Only heavy breathing echoed in the hallway.
The walls of this old building, built in the 1990s, have long since peeled off.
The motion-sensor lights in the hallway have been broken for a long time.
Tiesheng made a hand gesture.
Two goalkeepers stepped forward carrying alloy sledgehammers.
The hammerhead was fitted with a miniature kinetic energy propulsion device.
The thruster ignited the moment it hit the security door.
The security door, made of solid steel plates, collapsed along with its frame.
A fishy, foul odor wafted out.
This smell is even more pungent than an uncovered trash can in the summer.
"Wear a gas mask!"
Tiesheng shouted.
The special forces soldiers in the front row tore off the stun grenades from their tactical vests.
Remove the safety pin.
The cylindrical metal can rolled into the house through the door crack.
The bright light was blinding.
High-frequency sound waves covered the entire living room.
Three special operations teams provide cover for each other.
The beam of a tactical flashlight cuts through the darkness.
They did not use high-energy beam weapons.
The load-bearing structure of this old residential building is too fragile.
Unable to withstand the area-of-effect skills of the Awakened.
The rifles in the special forces soldiers' hands were loaded with solid brass bullets that had been enchanted with armor-piercing properties.
The butt of the rifle was pressed firmly against the shoulder.
Push the gun barrel horizontally.
There was no sofa or television in the living room.
The beam of the flashlight swept across.
Seven or eight figures dressed in black robes knelt on the cement ground.
They formed a strange circle.
Tiesheng made a hand gesture.
The special forces soldiers dispersed into formation.
The gun barrels were locked onto these people.
"Don't move!"
No one heeded the warnings.
One of the men in black robes turned his head.
He forced out a growl that was neither male nor female.
"Enemy attack!"
The man didn't draw his weapon.
He didn't make any defensive moves.
He pulled out a short knife and plunged it into his stomach.
The blade is pulled horizontally.
The belly was ripped open.
The magical crystal hidden in the abdominal cavity was exposed to the air.
The outer shell of the crystal is covered with vein-like patterns.
It did not crumble into dust.
Instead, it cracked.
Reddish-brown tissue fluid splattered out.
These liquids are extremely corrosive and reactive.
The cement wall hisses the moment it gets wet with liquid.
The white ash is peeling off.
Dark red chunks of flesh grew from underneath.
The surface of the meat was covered with throbbing blue veins.
The remaining black-robed figures began to swell.
Their bones pierced their skin.
What was originally a normal vertebra has been transformed into an exoskeleton similar to that of an arthropod.
The muscle fibers were forcibly stretched, turning a purplish-red color.
This change is completely depleting the body's resources.
They gave up thinking.
All that remains is the instinct to destroy.
"Fire!"
Tiesheng issued the order.
Gunshots echoed in the closed living room.
The enchanted armor-piercing bullet pierced the aberration's flesh.
The brass bullet tore through muscle tissue.
But those granulation tissues were wriggling too fast.
The bullet wound was filled within two seconds.
Tiesheng fired while observing the point of impact.
He discovered that these monsters had no vital organs.
Even if you pierce their hearts, they will still function.
If you blow someone's head off, new tumors will grow in the cavity of their neck.
A mutant charged forward despite the dense barrage of fire.
Its arm swung down.
That arm was covered in barbs.
Bone spikes slammed into the riot shields of the first rank of special forces soldiers.
A large dent appeared in the metal shield.
The special forces soldiers were thrown into the air by the enormous kinetic energy.
He smashed the window and his body fell uncontrollably outwards.
In mid-air, a white light chased after it.
Su Yunqing's healing beam locked onto the team member who had fallen from the building.
The effect of Yao Guang's Gift is triggered.
A thick shield enveloped his body.
He fell into the green belt downstairs and was unharmed.
A gap has been torn in the defense line.
The mutant took a step forward, ready to pounce on the second special forces member.
The precast concrete slab floor on the first floor collapsed downwards.
Gravel and steel bars fell down.
Dust rose up.
"Get out of the way!"
A loud roar came from underground.
Zhao Leiguang, holding up the Earth Wall, leaped out of the hole in the basement.
Its weight of over 200 pounds, coupled with the heavy shield, slammed heavily onto the floor in front of the mutant.
"War tramples!"
The pulse core converts kinetic energy into a yellowish-brown oscillating wave.
The shockwave swept across the ground.
The two deformed creatures at the very front made a crisp snapping sound as their leg bones broke.
The bones below the knee were shattered into powder.
Their massive bodies lost their support and collapsed to the ground.
Xiao Qianyu, carrying the Dragon King's Halberd, leaped out of the hole.
She ignored the deformed creatures that had fallen to the ground.
Her gaze was fixed on the pulsating chunks of flesh on the wall.
Wen Yue leveled the World-Destroying Thunder Crossbow.
Twelve scatter grenades were pinned to the four corners of the living room.
She did not detonate it.
She was waiting for the pieces of meat to gather.
Shen Xinglin's ever-changing lance has entered the broadsword mode.
He stood in front of Tiesheng and cleaved a mutant that was trying to sneak up in two.
The interior of what was originally an ordinary residential building has become a den of flesh and blood.
A viscous, stringy liquid hung on the wall.
The air was filled with a stench.
The beam of a tactical flashlight weaved through the flying bits of flesh and bone.
The metallic sound of the bolt being pulled mingled with the monster's roar.
Tiesheng looked at the group of awakened individuals who had suddenly appeared.
"How did you get up from down there?"
Xiao Qianyu shook off the bloodstains on the halberd.
"There's a sacrificial array in the basement."
She pointed to the tissue fluid flowing upwards on the wall.
"These guys didn't self-destruct to fight us."
"They're feeding the stuff on top."
This entire Building No. 12 is like a giant petri dish.
The reddish-brown fluid did not remain on the ground.
They climb up the wall and are rapidly seeping upwards.
Living anchors require a large amount of bioenergy to complete the final descent.
These believers are its nourishment.
These lunatics have no intention of living.
The deformed creature, its legs shattered, lay sprawled on the ground.
It did not retaliate against Zhao Leiguang.
Its arms gripped the chunks of meat on the floor.
Dragging his injured body, he desperately climbed towards the stairwell.
Zhao Leiguang looked at the mutant crawling on the ground and cursed.
"This thing is disgusting."
He raised the wall of earth, ready to smash its head.
"Don't touch it!"
Xiao Qianyu stopped him.
"Let it crawl."
"It can help us find the exact location of that anchor point."
Tiesheng changed the magazine and pulled the bolt.
"The energy level upstairs has exceeded the limit."
"Conventional weapons can't penetrate that layer of flesh."
Wen Yue tapped the crossbow twice with her fingers.
"Leave the physical attacks to me."
She pulled the trigger.
High-explosive grenades were fired, hitting the clustered chunks of flesh.
A series of explosions caused a bloody storm in the living room.
The shockwave was blocked by Lin Chuxue's shield.
The aberration needs to go to the top floor.
It wants to feed itself to that living organism as well.
A piercing scream, tearing through eardrums, came from the direction of the rooftop.
The steel bars of the entire building began to groan under the strain.
