Evolution begins with Resident Evil.

Set the time forward.

The first missing Delta Force "Metal" team was not completely wiped out. They successfully hid in the sewers.

The infected who were chasing them did not know how to open the manhole cover, so they could only wander around the "disappeared" place in the delta, unable to attack their "companions" furiously.

However, the owners of those special infected people already know that uninvited guests have entered the sewer area, and are deploying their troops to prepare to deal with these "little mice."

But the sewer system here is different from that in Harlan City. Relatively speaking, there are not so many open sewer entrances, so if you want to enter the sewer area under normal circumstances, you either open the manhole cover and climb down like the Delta Force, or you take a long way around. Go to outfalls or sewage treatment plants on the edge of the city.

The owner of this special infected person obviously didn't understand this. He only knew how to push up the manhole cover, but didn't know how to pull it open, so he chose to find another way.

-----------------

The situation in the sewers is much better than on the ground. There is no flesh and blood covering the ground or walls.

"Mikhail, check the ammunition situation."

The captain of the metal team was the first to come down. After confirming the safety, he counted the number of people. Except for those who had sacrificed before, there were no more losses in the battle just now, so he only asked his deputy captain to count the ammunition.

Now they are still some distance away from Mercy Hospital, and they will definitely have to fight some tough battles next.

Everyone counted the ammunition on their bodies and reported it.

The deputy captain concluded: "We only have two or three spare magazines left. It is much more consumed than expected."

Against those infected, the Deltas can still deal with them calmly and use a single burst of fire to kill the enemy, but when facing some special infected, they often need to use half or even the entire magazine to kill the enemy.

Especially the three special infected, the Collider, the Jockey and the Hunter, move quickly and know how to cooperate, so in order to deal with them accurately and quickly, the Delta people had to empty their magazines quickly.

"Damn it." The captain said with an angry look on his face: "That bastard Renaldo is trying to trick us."

The enemy's combat effectiveness was much stronger than expected, and there were a lot of specially infected people, but General Reynaldo Mineiro did not provide them with any information about the specially infected people.

Because they are responsible for destroying evidence, if they know too much, the result is that the Metal Team will also be silenced, so their superior Renaldo also has good intentions and does not tell them too many things.

As for why he didn't mention it after changing the mission objective later, it was because the Metal Team did not report on the special infected, so Renaldo felt that they could handle it, so he did not waste time talking about these things.

The Metal Team did have the upper hand against those special infected, but Renaldo did not consider that the Metal Team's advantage was based on sufficient firearms and bullets, so he miscalculated the supply problem.

During the mission briefing, he planned to have the metal team complete the mission quickly relying only on air-dropped supply ammunition, so the metal team did not carry loose bullets, but carried as many full magazines as possible and then threw them away after use.

Although the vice-captain was equally angry, he remained calm because it was his duty to hold back the object of his anger.

He said: "It's useless for us to be angry now. How about we evacuate directly from the sewer? So far, the zombies have not come after us. There won't be many zombies who want to come here. Sparing bullets should be enough for us to evacuate."

Normal people would not venture into a place full of stench. If no one came here, there would naturally be no infected people.

"You know I won't run away. What are the other options?" The captain didn't want to be a deserter. Even if he had to give the bastard who gave the order a heavy blow, that would be after he completed the mission and returned alive.

The deputy captain looked up and said: "The first is to change places, stay away from Mercy Hospital and then contact the superiors again for ammunition supply. The second option is to go directly to the entrance of Mercy Hospital to resupply, and then rush into the research institute in one fell swoop to complete the mission. "

The air-dropped ammunition boxes contain magazines that have already been loaded with bullets. When resupplying, you can just stuff them into the ammunition bag.

"The hospital is the source of the outbreak, and the enemy will definitely defend it. Unless we can contact our superiors to provide us with helicopter support, it will not be an easy task for us to supply supplies."

The leader of the metal team has now planned his team's actions based on the assumption that the zombies also have commands.

The vice-captain shook his head and said, "Edgar just tried to contact the command center, but failed."

As the communications soldier in the team, it is Edgar's responsibility to ensure smooth communication at all times, so in addition to checking the ammunition after entering the sewer, he also checked the communication situation.

Now they are basically in a dead situation, unless they can contact Renaldo to confirm the location of the air-dropped ammunition boxes, and then use the remaining bullets on hand to grab the ammunition boxes and replenish them in batches.

Otherwise, when the metal team confirms the location of the ammunition supply box and goes to get the supplies, the bullets in their hands may not be enough for them to cover each other to get the ammunition.

"Or I can try to contact my superiors." Signal soldier Edgar, who was listening on the sidelines, raised his hand and said, "There is a hole in the manhole cover, big enough for me to extend the antenna."

"Very good, but the zombies above should still be there, please pay attention to safety." The captain thought the other party's method was good.

The vice-captain thought for a moment and said, "It's still some time before the next regular contact, why don't we take a break first?"

The Delta captain glanced at the teammates around him and said, "We don't have enough oxygen. We can't let us dawdle. At least we need to get some more oxygen bottles airdropped to us from above."

Edgar nodded, moved the communication device to his chest, and then climbed up the vertical ladder.

A little below the manhole cover, he leaned against the shaft wall and stood with his feet on the stair pole, so that he could use his hands to control the communication equipment.

Pulling out the antenna, he did not rush to point it at the small hole in the manhole cover. Instead, he held his breath and listened to the movement above.

He was worried that the zombies would break the antenna or tear it out.

After confirming, Edgar stretched out the antenna and was about to contact the command post when he heard the sound of a pool of liquid spitting onto the manhole cover.

Before he could react, a thick arm smashed through the manhole cover with the sound of metal being corroded.

Edgar was hit in the face with this punch and fell unconscious instantly. His feet gave way and he fell down.

The others were resting, and no one reacted. Edgar fell to the ground without any movement.

The members of the Metal Team instantly stood up with their weapons in hand and saw that the Signal Soldier's facial features were sunken and that some green liquid was corroding his clothes and skin.

The medics in the team ran forward, trying to save people.

At this time, a rammer jumped down and stepped directly on Edgar's body, crushing the communication equipment that Edgar subconsciously protected on his chest when he was unconscious.

The deputy captain quickly grabbed the medic and threw him back. At the same time, he held an assault rifle in his other hand and fired, killing the attacker who had not had time to protect his head with his hands.

The remaining members of Metal Team knew that the ram was just an appetizer and that this place was no longer safe.

Because they didn't take off their equipment when they were resting, they could start running immediately as soon as the captain gave the order.

An ordinary infected person was attracted by the sound of gunfire and did not notice the hole in the ground. He stepped on the air and fell down, making another loud noise and falling to pieces.

The vice-captain took the time to look back and could only say that he and the others still had a little bit of luck, and it seemed that the enemy would not be able to catch up for a while.

"We go directly to the research institute! Use the communication equipment there to contact the outside world, and then we guard the research institute and wait for others to rescue us."

In an emergency, the captain thought of what they had to do next.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the change. When they were still three hundred meters away from Mercy Hospital, the damn "wall" appeared in the sewer, blocking them again.

"I'll just blow this damn thing up!" The team's blaster made a quick decision and took out the explosive pack he had prepared earlier.

"There is methane here! I don't have time to assess your safety!" The vice-captain didn't dare to gamble and immediately stopped the other party's behavior.

The captain looked around and found the shaft returning to the ground, and said: "Let's go up first! After you install it, leave time to retreat!"

"Copy that!" The Demoman said with a ferocious smile, his skills were finally put to use.

The manhole cover was covered with thick lichen. The team leader pushed up the manhole cover hard and cut it with a knife before successfully pushing the manhole cover open.

"This way!" The captain quickly confirmed the location and pointed to the two-story commercial housing with the door open in the distance.

The Demoman quickly followed, but after the countdown ended, nothing happened, and there was no vibration.

While the captain fired to deal with the infected people who were surrounding him, he said, "Are you sure you didn't get the time of the explosion wrong?"

"I have been dealing with bombs for most of my life, there is no way I can make a mistake!" The demolitionist was also anxious and immediately said that he had not made a mistake.

Since it's not a problem with the Demoman, it's a problem with the "wall".

But no matter what the reason is, it is impossible for the Metal Team to go back to the sewers now. The area around the manhole cover outside has been occupied by infected people, and they don't have many bullets on hand, and they are all reserved for dealing with those special infected people.

So it seems that they have only the last way left, which is to move on, get to the hospital to get supplies, and then enter the institute to wait for rescue.

However, the current Metal Team needs some luck to complete this plan.

-----------------

Twenty minutes later, there were only three people left alive in the metal team at this time, namely the captain, deputy captain and the team's medic.

The Demoman sacrificed himself and used all the explosives he carried to draw the zombies away while opening a way forward for the other members.

In addition, two people died.

One of them was sprayed with acid by a special infected person who could vomit acid. In the pain, while he could still move his arm, he ended his life with a bayonet, while the other risked his life and pushed the military doctor away and was ambushed. The attacker crashed directly out of the window and fell to the ground from the fifth floor.

After sacrificing their lives along the way, the remaining three finally arrived at the top of an apartment building fifty meters away from Mercy Hospital, which was not yet covered by those fleshy lichens.

The reason why they came here was just to bet that the guys sent by the superior's backup plan could attract the zombies away and find them hiding on the rooftop.

Because they have exhausted all their bullets and are unable to advance any further. It is now difficult for them to protect themselves in the face of special infected people.

Although the three survivors left those disgusting flesh and blood carpets, the zombies had basically heard the sound and moved, and it was only a matter of time before they broke through the iron gate of the rooftop.

It can only be said that life should not be taken. The second Delta Force sent by General Reynaldo, the helicopter formation of the "Juliet" team, came to the sky above Mercy Hospital and began to cause a scene, killing the infected. All attracted away.

"Here comes the backup plan." The deputy captain carefully stuck his head out and observed the helicopter's movements.

The captain who was leaning against the wall did not observe the situation and just nodded. Those helicopters were not here to rescue him and others, so it was not time to be happy yet.

The military doctor looked at the captain and said, "We have to use the flare gun to let them find our location and pick us up."

The captain sighed, stood up, cheered up, and said, "They also have their own missions. Do you think they will give up their missions now just for the sake of a few of us?"

"I know, but those armed helicopters won't stay in the sky forever. Let's wait until they evacuate."

As if to verify the military doctor's words, a cement block flew quickly from the ground in the direction of the helicopter, directly smashing the armed helicopter down.

The cement block was not a missile. The siren on the helicopter did not sound at all. When the driver was sitting in the cab, he had a large blind spot in the field of vision below, so he did not react at all.

The enemy was very smart. He threw it away and ran away. The other gunships didn't even see the enemy.

That is a special infected person, not only a cement block, but also a car is child's play for it.

While other armed helicopters were cleaning up the scene and looking for traces of the enemy, a car flew directly over from the other direction. By the time the pilot of the targeted helicopter was reminded by others, it was already too late. .

The three members of the Metal Team, who were watching the battle not far away, looked at the falling helicopter, as if they saw their hopes falling with it and being smashed to pieces.

At this moment, the door of the transport helicopter protected in the middle opened, four ropes were thrown down, and the members of Juliet's team began to land.

"They actually landed like this?" The time from the start of the attack to the landing was obviously not enough to clear a safe landing place, so the deputy captain was so surprised.

The captain also raised the assault rifle with all the bullets empty in his hand, used the double scope as a telescope, and said, "When did the people in Team Juliet become so powerful?"

If he read correctly, all the special infected and ordinary infected who crossed the gunship's fire net were knocked down by Juliet's team's bursts of fire.

The two sides often engage in training competitions, and the results are mutually beneficial, so the Metal Team has a say in the strength of the Juliet Team.

The deputy captain observed for a while and said: "I am familiar with their deputy team. Judging from his size, he is right. Moreover, that guy doesn't like to use optical sights. His gun is the only one in the entire Juliet team that does not have a sight."

The captain nodded when he saw that the person the vice-captain was talking about happened to be walking at the end of the team.

Team Juliet moved very quickly and entered Mercy Hospital, disappearing from the sight of the three members of Team Metal.

The battle with the gunships ended when Juliet's team entered Mercy Hospital, immediately raised their altitude and began to retreat.

But during the evacuation, the transport helicopter that previously carried the Juliet team was hit by a high-rise water tower during the stretching process.

The survivors of the Metal Team finally saw the special infected person standing on the roof and thrown out of the water tower.

The monster has a huge body, and the muscles all over the body have been strengthened. Especially the muscles of the upper body have become extremely developed, especially the arms. The overall change of the lower body has not been much, so that its strong hands can almost touch when they are naturally vertical. to the ground.

After shooting down the transport helicopter, the monster did not pursue the victory. He let out a low roar and beat his chest with both arms, declaring his powerful power to the surroundings.

As for the metal team, under the puzzled gaze of the military doctor, the team leader held the flare gun tightly and did not fire the flare.

Because of the presence of that kind of monster, the armed helicopter simply had no time to lower its altitude and save him and others from leaving. Moreover, the other party did not know the identity of himself and others, so it was very likely that he would choose to ignore his signal flare.

At that point, it’s time to truly despair.

Therefore, the captain of the metal team chose to retain this last glimmer of hope and did not fire the signal flare.
