Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 281 Ceremony
Power supply is the top priority of a base.Although this base is temporary at the moment, there are several backups of power supply, and if one line is cut off, it will automatically switch to another line immediately.Even if all the lines fail, the base itself has an emergency backup power supply, so it is absolutely impossible to completely lose the power supply.

But at this moment, this situation really appeared in front of Lu Ming.

At this moment, because it was too sudden, Lu Ming's brain froze for a moment.It took a moment for him to react.Then a thought flashed through his mind.

"The plans of the monsters are about to start!"

Things are too weird at this moment, if there is no human factor in it, no one will believe it.Since this is the case, it is only possible that there is a certain existence deliberately doing it, in order to achieve a certain purpose.Combined with the fact that the monsters intentionally left the No. [-] experimental subject in the hands of humans, the final answer is ready to come.

And no matter what the ultimate goal of the monsters is, what they want to achieve, in short, they have now activated!

Lu Ming's whole body tensed up, and he rushed towards the core of the base, where Experimental No. [-] was imprisoned, like a conditioned reflex.

In this dark and moonless night, there were panic shouts everywhere in the base.Wearing white coats and undertaking research tasks, experts from various disciplines ran and roared like headless chickens, as if they had encountered some fatal danger.The guards guarding the base did not panic at all.

They yelled loudly, asking all the experts to go back to their rooms, and dispatched manpower in an orderly manner. base.Most of them made the same choice as Lu Ming, and also rushed towards the core of the base.

Seeing that the quality of the guards is so high, even though the incident happened suddenly, they were handled safely, and Lu Ming saw that there were still some retreat signs in the base, and some key core facilities were still in operation. It means that the backup power supply of the base itself has not actually been cut off, but some external devices have been cut off because of their low priority, and my heart has gradually settled down.

Lost public lighting, do not know how many bright flashlights lit up, shaking in this dark night.With the light, Lu Ming saw the figure of a person in charge of the security.He yelled in the past, and the person in charge immediately saluted Lu Ming with a strong voice: "Report to Sheriff Lu, the first team has set off to troubleshoot, the second team is responsible for protecting scientific research experts, and the third to seventh teams are going to enrich The external defense forces are currently loaded with live ammunition and are on full alert. Teams eight to twelve go to the core of the base, and teams thirteen to fifteen are on standby temporarily!"

"Good job! There may be monsters attacking the base from outside the base. Once you find any traces of monsters, I authorize you to kill them! Also, call for support immediately!"

"Yes!"

"Give me the light!"

The person in charge gave Lu Ming the flashlight, and Lu Ming rushed towards the core of the base in a hurry.

On the way, he met He Wei and Zhang Dingshan.At this moment, both of them looked solemn and made the same decision as Lu Ming.

Go to the core of the base first.In any case, it is necessary to ensure that the No. [-] experimental subject is not accidental.As for the impact from the outside, even if the individual monsters are powerful, the three of them don't think they can break through the defense line of the base.

The core area of ​​the base is the area with the highest priority for power supply.At the moment, the place is still brightly lit.After rushing into the isolation ward together with the guards from the brigade, through the layer of tempered glass, Lu Ming immediately saw that Experimental No. [-], which was firmly fixed on the bed by special fibers, was about to die at this moment. Break free.

A total of eight ropes were fixed to it, and six of them had been cut by it at this moment.As long as the two ropes fixing its legs are cut again, it can completely escape.

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment.

Doesn't it have the ability to cut this special fiber rope?In the past, under the fixation of this kind of rope, it has never been able to resist at all!Why now, it can cut it open?

There is only one explanation.That is, in the past, it intentionally hid its ability, intentionally made people mistakenly believe that it could not be cut open, and then hibernated until today, until the monsters' plan was launched, and it escaped in one fell swoop!
Zhang Dingshan shouted in a low voice: "Everyone be on alert! Get out of the room!"

The guards raised their guns and exited the room in an orderly manner.After that, the heavy steel gate was sealed.

"Once Subject No. [-] breaks out of this room, kill it immediately!"

"Yes!"

This thick metal room is the last bottom line in Zhang Dingshan's mind.He could tolerate Experimental No. [-] breaking free, even breaking the layer of tempered glass, but he couldn't tolerate Experimental No. [-] leaving this room without control.

Once that happens, no matter how precious this experimental subject is, no matter how high its research value is, it will be ignored, and it must be killed first.

Zhang Dingshan, Lu Ming, and He Wei rushed to the monitoring room and continued to check the movement of Experimental No. [-] through the monitoring.

In just this moment, Lu Ming saw that it was completely out of trouble and walked down from the hospital bed.

What will it do next?Breaking tempered glass?Or just try to destroy the steel wall to escape?
Lu Ming thought quickly.But what happened a moment later made Lu Ming startled again, unable to react in his head.

After getting out of trouble, Experiment No. [-] not only didn't destroy the room he was in, but instead raised the bone knife that was used as an arm, and directly pierced his little triangular head a little.

It let out a howl full of pain and evil, which made people feel chills.The next moment, the bone knife was pulled out, and a small pitch-black sphere appeared on the end.

That's its eyeball.

"Is it self-harming? It's pulling out its own eyes? What's it going to do?"

He Wei murmured subconsciously.

The next moment, Lu Ming saw Experimental No. [-] gently place his eyeballs on the ground.After that, next to the eyeball, it bent its knees, put its arms on the ground, drooped its small head, and knelt down on the ground, just like the kneeling posture of a human being.

It seemed to be bowing down to the eyeball that had just been dug out of its own body.

An ominous premonition rose in Lu Ming's heart.

He didn't know what Experimental No. [-] was doing. He didn't know whether the things it was doing at this moment were related to the blackout of the base, or whether they were related to the plans and goals of the monsters.But he knew in his heart that this must not be a good thing for his side.

Maybe our side should block it?But will your own obstruction make things worse?At least, at this moment, it doesn't look like a threat.

Lu Ming's thoughts turned, thousands of thoughts flashed through his head.

At this moment, Experimental No. [-] suddenly let out a howl.This howling was like a prelude, followed by a series of hasty, fast, high-pitched but vague syllables.

Lu Ming never knew that this monster could make so many different syllables.In the past, not only Lu Ming, but even experts in various disciplines thought that this monster could only make a limited number of sounds.At this moment, judging from the complexity of these syllables, the pronunciation they can master may even be no less than that of humans.

There seemed to be some weird rhythm in that syllable, and it sounded a little like the incantations and scriptures that Lu Ming had heard in some religious occasions.

The high-pitched and loud syllables echoed in the monitoring room, stirring people's minds.Lu Ming wanted to do something, but after weighing the pros and cons, he finally decided to wait and see what happened.

He believes that there really is a special mechanism in this world that allows Experiment No. [-] to go through some kind of sacrificial ceremony, and the probability that it will actually lead to some consequences in the real world cannot be said to be absolute. Doesn't exist, but must be small.

Compared with this possibility, he still believes that threats from the outside world deserve more attention.

First of all, the external power supply of one's own side was cut off, which must be the prelude to some changes.And this prelude can never just lead to the weird ceremony in front of it.

The power outage caused chaos, and then the monsters outside took advantage of the chaos to attack, which was the most likely thing to happen.

If there were no accidents, at this moment, on the edge of the base, the guards who were fully alert should have discovered the traces of those monsters, and the two sides had even exchanged fire.

Maybe these changes happening in the core area of ​​the base at this moment, or maybe the weird performance of the No. [-] experimental body, is just to divert our attention and disperse our troops, so as to create conditions for external monsters to attack the base.

He took out the communicator and asked the person in charge, "How is the situation at the edge of the base?"

"Report to Sergeant Lu, everything on the edge of the base is normal! We are on strict guard, but so far, no abnormalities have been found!"

Lu Ming was taken aback.

how could this be?

The monsters cut off the external power supply of the base with great fanfare, causing a certain amount of chaos. In the core area of ​​the base, the No. [-] experimental body pretended to be a ghost, forcing a considerable part of its own troops to stay here, but nothing happened?

Thunder, little rain?

No, it's impossible, there must be something that our side has overlooked, it must be...

Lu Ming thought quickly.

If, if the power outage and the strange behavior of Experiment No. [-] are just appearances, they are all just a disguise for the real plan of the monsters, then, then...

The real purpose of the monsters must be their own base.You can't go wrong.But if they don't adopt the method of strong attack and hard attack, how else can they extend from the outside to the inside of the base?
A few words flashed across Lu Ming's mind instantly.

Water, fire, light, air, sound, earthquakes, airplanes, missiles.

These eight kinds of existence are means that can directly affect the interior of the base from the outside of the base.

First is water.But there are not enough water sources around the base, such as reservoirs.So water can be excluded.

Fire can also be ruled out.In terms of light, it is possible to think of the star map that can cause people to go crazy and eventually mutate just by seeing it.However, the transmission of light is easily blocked. Many people on our side are indoors and cannot see the change of light from the outside at all.So light can also be excluded.

In terms of sound, how loud can it travel so far?Or do you have to rely on your voice to shock your side to death?This is too ridiculous.

As for earthquakes, Lu Ming doesn't think monsters have the ability to cause earthquakes.

As for aircraft, missiles, and various long-range offensive weapons, Lu Ming also didn't think they had this capability.

After eliminating one by one, the last word appeared in Lu Ming's mind.

gas.

Lu Ming's pupils tightened.

Is it poisonous gas?
Lu Ming remembered that biologists said that theoretically speaking, the body of this monster has the ability to secrete a certain kind of highly toxic nerve agent.The nerve agent evaporates quickly and easily forms a poisonous gas.

Of course, it's only possible.

Could it be that relying on power outages to cause chaos and Experiment No. [-]'s pretending to be ghosts are just appearances. The real plan of the monsters is to rely on the release of poisonous gas outside the base to kill and injure the personnel inside the base?
The flow of gas can spread to every corner of the base.

Lu Ming took out his phone, quickly opened the weather forecast, and saw that the real-time weather at the moment showed that the wind direction at the moment was southeast, and the wind speed was one to two.

It really is poisonous gas!
Lu Ming immediately made a judgment in his heart.Because if the wind speed is too high, it is very easy to blow away the poisonous gas, so that it cannot form a sufficient concentration and cannot affect the human body.If there is no wind at all, the poisonous gas cannot spread in a certain direction.

The current weather conditions are just right for spreading poisonous gas.Lu Ming didn't believe it was a coincidence.

"Captain! I doubt that the monsters will release poisonous gas on us!"

Lu Ming quickly described his guesses and judgments, and Zhang Dingshan and He Wei immediately looked serious.

Zhang Dingshan immediately took out the communicator, as if he wanted to give some order, but in a short while, he removed the communicator again.

He shook his head: "We cannot order gas masks and isolation suits."

Lu Ming was startled, and then realized the problem.

At this moment, almost no one in the base is equipped with gas masks and isolation suits.These materials are stored in a unified manner, but now people are scattered throughout the base, sticking to their posts.

Once the order to wear isolation suits and gas masks is ordered, if the time requirement is too tight, it will easily lead to confusion and lead to loopholes in the defense line.Maybe at that time, the monsters will really rush in.

However, the time requirement is not tight. People are required to retreat in batches to receive gas masks and isolation suits, or to assign special personnel to deliver them. If they are worn in batches, the time required is too long, and it cannot be completed within an hour.After such a long time, the poisonous gas will come long ago.

Lu Ming realized with horror that he had unknowingly fallen into a dilemma.

At the critical moment, He Wei gritted her teeth and said, "If that's the case, then find a way to prevent the monsters from releasing poisonous gas!"
