Chapter 166: Chapter 166: An Old Man Who Knows the Current Situation
The soldiers of the Death Corps will show no mercy to their fallen enemies.
The shotgun roared violently, and countless steel balls gushed out.
The bloody monsters that were knocked to the ground were immediately besieged by other soldiers. Their exposed brain tissue naturally became the main target of attack.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Like a smashed watermelon.
A few minutes later, these monsters, which looked like skinned frogs, all turned into headless corpses.
Ignoring the still twitching corpses on the ground, Colonel Frank looked at the deep scratches on the armor of his Death Legion soldiers, which seemed to be about to pierce through the armor, and couldn't help but frowning.
Powerful strength, sharp claws, swift attack, and extremely high concealment. Just as Dwight said, the monsters here are most likely biological weapons developed by the Freemasons.
Although the soldiers of the Death Corps have not suffered any casualties so far, it is conceivable that without the advantage in numbers, a single soldier of the Death Corps may not be a match for this kind of monster.
Suddenly, before Frank could give any other orders, just a few seconds after being knocked to the ground, the headless corpses twitching on the ground stood up again, their claws dancing wildly, and began to attack the surrounding soldiers at an extremely rapid speed.
This time, without heads, the Death Legion soldiers could only fire at their bodies.
He knew very well that he could not survive in the difficult doomsday and had to rely on other forces to live a good life.
On the contrary, there were two soldiers whose chest armor was weakened and who were finally unable to resist the attacks of the monsters' sharp claws. Their chests were broken open and they died miserably.
What a bunch of stupid, rude and ignorant bastards. When faced with a great scientist and senior researcher like him, they only wanted to treat him as a cannon fodder. Not only did they not give him any preferential treatment, they always beat and insulted him. They are simply a bunch of garbage.
Avril nodded and wrote down the president's orders one by one.
"Not only does it take a lot of chemicals to kill the microorganisms in the fuel, it also wastes a lot of electricity resources."
Frank's expression remained unchanged when he heard this. He asked in a cold voice:
"Where are the Savior Army members? Are they all dead?"
Although he got nothing done, Jesus was not angry. He turned around and glanced at Dwight who was following them. He saw that Dwight was sweating profusely and his face was full of panic and fear. He was obviously frightened by the monsters just now.
"Since most of the Savior Army members are dead, we don't need to rush in."
"We have completely deprived these zombie monsters of their intelligence and distributed their control systems throughout all tissues in their bodies, leaving only their fighting instincts."
During the past few years that the old man had held out, the Freemasons ignored them and completely lost contact with them.
Dwight came back to his senses after hearing this, and was slightly stunned. He did not refuse, but said with gratitude:
"Thank you, Mr. Jesus. I'll go upstairs then."
Of course, the adjutants had no objection to Frank's order. They immediately commanded the soldiers to take the corpses on the ground and begin to retreat in an orderly manner.
"However, we cannot put all our hopes on the fuel issue."
"Their vitality is extremely strong. As long as their physical strength does not drop below 50%, they will slowly recover."
"Can fuel oil contaminated by bacteria and viruses be completely purified?"
At this point, Dr. Mason showed an even more smug expression on his face and said:
......
"Mr. President, do you think we should continue the attack?"
"But at present, this method is not worth promoting."
Colonel Frank had a stern face and ignored Jesus' words. Instead, he directed the soldiers to treat their injuries and rest after the war.
At the same time, he cursed Negan, whom he had met before, and the Saviors he led in his heart.
"Leave a member of the communications and reconnaissance team to monitor the situation here at all times."
"How is the proposal I gave to the Research Department before, the plan to manufacture electric cars and power tools, going?"
"We'll deal with this place next time when we're well prepared."
"The Ministry of Research believes that with our current industrial capabilities, we are unable to manufacture large-scale equipment suitable for the current environment."
After telling Leon all the information he had discovered, Frank asked with a choked voice:
"I want to join you."
Every soldier in the Death Corps is very precious. Currently, there are less than 500 people in the entire human alliance. If they continue to attack inside the research institute, it is very likely that dozens of people will be sacrificed or even all of them will be wiped out. By that time, the loss will be too great.
When Dwight saw him, he immediately said to Jesus:
"Boss, Mr. White can indeed purify the fuel."
Jesus and several other members of the Sting Squad did not attack those dangerous monsters at close range. They were not sure whether their special spider silk combat uniforms could withstand such attacks. They could only use assault rifles to assist the soldiers' attacks from a distance.
Indeed, if the monsters' target just now was someone like Dwight who was not wearing armor, he would have been torn to pieces by now.
The casualties of these two soldiers made Frank's eyes twitch. You know, every soldier of the Death Corps has undergone multiple selections and many years of training. They are the most elite soldiers of the Human Alliance except for the Solitary Assassin Squad, a special forces team.
However, the lickers in the game do not have the strong vitality that Frank described. They can only be killed by destroying more than 50% of the body tissue. They do not seem like products of the earth at all.
"Are you from the Human Rights Organization? I can tell you everything I know."
Hearing Frank's almost explicit question, Leon completely understood what his brother-in-law meant and knew that he felt sorry for the veterans under his command.
The other soldiers, under the command of the adjutant, entered the small town next to the sanatorium, searching for various materials and tools, preparing to completely block the gate of the research institute in the backyard.
"You'd better burn their bodies. This monster is called a licker."
"Or should we wait until we get the information from old man Mason before continuing the attack?"
Jesus is actually a very kind-hearted guy. He admires Dwight, a man who is willing to fight for his family.
According to his own memory, Leon knew very well that in the future, in order to deal with various problems such as fuel and environmental protection, the electric power generation system would be the future of mankind and a clean and recyclable energy source.
"In that case, you should seal the door of the laboratory."
"If we want to build a large vehicle, we have to reduce the weight of the vehicle as much as possible. We can't modify it for defense, and we can't carry a lot of cargo."
After receiving his order, Frank seemed to be secretly relieved.
Only after these monsters were dealt with did he say to Frank with lingering fear:
"We now know why there are no corpses of these monsters outside. We can't kill these monsters with the weapons of those poor bastards of the Savior Army."
"Unless you destroy more than half of their body tissues and make their control systems completely ineffective, you can't really kill these things."
Dr. Mason shook his head somewhat awkwardly and said:
"Go wait outside. You are not needed here for the time being."
"According to the think tank's calculations, the price of this fuel needs to increase fifty times to match its consumption."
"As for the idea of converting the power system of tanks or aircraft to electricity, it is simply unrealistic. Current batteries cannot provide such a powerful energy source."
However, these monsters were ultimately facing elite soldiers whose number was seven or eight times theirs. A few minutes later, under the fearless attacks of the tough men of the Death Corps, their limbs and even claws were all blown off by shotguns and melee machetes.
"I will ask Amy to allocate some of the electricity resources, and you also need to help Professor White find more suitable research talents and try to reduce the consumption of purified fuel."
The old man didn't seem to be very courageous. He was frightened by Frank's cold tone and trembled. He didn't dare to delay and said quickly:
"I am the research director of this institute, Dr. Mason Parker."
Hearing this sound, Jesus and several other team members immediately picked up their guns, pointed them at the place where the sound came from in the darkness, and shouted:
"Who is it? Get out now, or we'll shoot."
Dr. Mason responded to Jesus' questions very obediently and told the members of the Stinger Squad all the information he knew.
Moreover, most of the fuel equipment on the market must be replaced, otherwise the Human Rights Alliance will not be able to afford their consumption.
Being pointed at by a gun, the man in the darkness no longer dared to pretend. He hurriedly walked out of the darkness with a panicked expression and smiled awkwardly.
Lyon nodded with some toothache. If that was the case, the value of fuel would indeed be greatly reduced, except for a few equipment that had to use fuel.
Seeing that the old man's attitude seemed very sincere, Frank's eyes flashed when he heard his words. He chose to believe him temporarily, turned to the adjutant and said:
So, he set his sights on the Human Rights Association, which he had heard of from other managers.
Frank also heard the old man's voice, and immediately walked over with his weapon in hand, and asked in a cold voice:
"Who are you and why do you know the information about these monsters?"
Frank and Jesus looked at each other, then motioned for Dr. Mason to follow them as they returned to the surface.
After returning to the ground, Frank left Jesus, Mason and others to continue discussing intelligence. After sending away Reiner who was staring at the corpses with shining eyes, he quickly connected with Leon.
Leon smiled secretly in his heart. Although his brother-in-law looked like a cold-blooded soldier, he was actually a warm-hearted man with rich emotions. This could be seen from the fact that he cared so much about his sister and niece and attached great importance to family.
After thinking for a few minutes, Lyon gave the order.
"Their common trait is that they have strong vitality. The brain is no longer their fatal weakness, right?"
Jesus nodded upon hearing this, but did not put down the gun in his hand. Since the old man opposite was a Freemason, he was most likely an enemy of the Human League, so he could not let his guard down. He had heard of the poison gas leak that occurred at the previous Harvest Festival.
However, since the results in the laboratory have not been taken away by the Saviors, then there is really no need to be so anxious.
The best option is to wait until he has prepared manpower, brought various weapons and equipment, and figured out the intelligence inside, and then come to deal with this place.
"That is to say, the biological and chemical weapons in this research institute can be divided into five categories."
"With the current manufacturing capabilities of our research department, we can still manufacture single-person electric scooters and other means of transportation. However, due to the current battery capacity, the maximum mileage of such scooters is only within 100 kilometers."
"Mr. Jesus, he is the old man we caught. He said his name is Mason."
However, Leon was very interested in the monster called Licker mentioned by Frank. He didn't know whether it was a coincidence or the convergence of the world line, but this monster, which was once very famous in the Resident Evil game series, also appeared here.
But it's understandable.
"Carry the bodies of the lickers up there, and we'll retreat first."
"I am responsible for the research and development of these biological and chemical weapons."
Avril thought about Leon over and over again. She was already familiar with his jumping thinking habits. She flipped through her notebook again and turned to the previous ten pages.
While looking at the content above, he said:
"Boss, I have already consulted Director Thomas about this issue. At present, what we need to solve most is the battery capacity and power conversion consumption."
Leon was silent for a few seconds and said:
"For Shirley, I can't die now."
Thinking of this, Leon called his secretary Avril and asked:
"How's Mr. White's research going?"
"After I brought them to the base, I ran away secretly. They were chased by other test subjects and should be almost dead now."
"The brain is just an ordinary organ of theirs. Even if they lose it, it will have no effect on their combat effectiveness."
Perhaps this is why it is increasingly difficult to find traces of large organizations! They are also unable to solve the problem of fuel. Without fuel, human transportation capabilities are greatly reduced.
Even though their trunks and bodies are still alive and twitching, they have basically lost their ability to fight.
However, even though the tough guys of the Death Corps kept firing, hitting these monsters so hard that their bodies were full of holes and blood, they still couldn't kill them completely.
"Our aircraft, tanks and other important weapons require this fuel. We must maintain a certain amount of fuel reserves to ensure our troops' combat effectiveness."
Inside the Mason Mental Rehabilitation Center, Frank has selected a brave elite scout team and arranged for them to set up an outpost and communication system here.
He knew very well that with his knowledge and ability as well as his understanding of Freemasonry, any smart and ambitious leader of a powerful force would never refuse.
However, before he could make any move, a hoarse and obscene voice came from the darkness.
Mason nodded with a hint of pride and said:
"Yes, it was the bacterial virus that is prevalent around the world that gave us the inspiration."
Leon nodded. He was just an ordinary executive in the past and had no knowledge of such professional knowledge. Although he was quite anxious, he could only continue to wait.
Avril heard this, flipped through her notes, and then said softly:
"Besides, the ones you encountered were just mass-produced, semi-finished lickers."
"Our truly complete biological weapons will not only be equipped with special combat armor, but also equipped with combat chips to artificially control their combat methods."
"The combat power of a complete Licker is at least ten times that of the semi-finished product you see. It is a truly perfect weapon."
