Age Of The Sirens

Even though the transport aircraft has the most advanced radar stealth function, the pilots still fly cautiously along the way, for fear of being detected by the rebels.The two teams landed in the southeast of Area 210. There was dry land everywhere, and occasionally a few lifeless withered grasses could be seen swaying in the wind.There are many high-rise buildings that were abandoned decades ago, and the rows of densely packed windows on the damaged buildings are like countless bullet holes on the corpse of a giant. They are covered with thick dust and sand, reflecting the setting sun like blood.

Holding a microwave gun in his hand, Tang Yi looked up at those tall buildings, guessing when they were built, and how glamorous they were when they were just built.People living in this rich city at that time would never have imagined that one day their proud city would become what it is now.

The air was so dry and choking that you could smell it even with a gas mask on.Ten people and ten sirens trudged across the ground covered by collapsed boulders and taupe vines, and a few lizards stared at them coldly from afar.Quicksilver stopped in his tracks suddenly, and the wind blew his hair like snow.

Tang Yi also stopped, "What's wrong?"

"Someone is here."

As soon as this remark came out, all the other team members became nervous.Sea monsters can hear frequencies that humans can't hear, and Mercury's hearing is particularly sensitive. It is his extreme sensitivity to the surrounding environment that has saved the [-]th team from danger in many missions.

Tsuruta ordered decisively, "Find a place to hide!"

Tang Yi followed Quicksilver and quickly dodged behind a reinforced concrete wall that had collapsed from a nearby building, and the others also looked for obstacles to hide.Quicksilver was close behind him, with long hair brushing the side of his neck, that tickling feeling kept rushing to his heart somehow.Tang Yi felt awkward, moved forward uncomfortably, poked his head out and looked out.

After about 5 minutes, a medium-sized mini-machine suddenly turned out from behind a building. It looked like a long oval aircraft for transporting goods, but the model was very old, and the fuselage was full of rust.

"That aircraft...has a disgusting smell inside." Quicksilver's voice penetrated into his ears wetly.When he turned around, he found that Mercury was so close to him, and his reflection was captured by a pair of starry blue eyes, which seemed to be able to penetrate the soul.

Tang Yi's heartbeat stalled, and he quickly turned around as if nothing had happened.

The aircraft slowly disappeared into the gap in the center of a building that was folded in half in the distance, and the team members came out of their hiding places.

Tang Yi said, "That aircraft doesn't look like the military's. The model is too old. Even miniature aircraft like the army have been eliminated. Could it be the rebels?"

James said, "It's quite a distance from the rebel barracks, the Eighth Division, and Area 210. What are they doing here?"

"Could it be a trap..." said the soldier named Bob from the [-]th team.

Tsuruta discussed with James in a low voice, and then said to everyone, "Lin Maochen took the Kraken with me and James to have a look, and the rest of the people waited in place. If there is a situation, use the communicator to contact. We will return in two hours. If you don't come back, Nolan will lead the team to continue the mission without waiting for us."

Mercury frowned slightly, raised his head to look at Tsuruta, and then at Nolan, but no one expressed any objection.

what happened?Why did everyone's attitude towards Tang Ya change so much after being injured once?The strangest thing was that Tang Ya didn't respond at all.

Even if the former Tang Ya didn't speak, no one would dare to ignore him.Why has it changed so much?

Tsuruta Takumi and the other six quickly disappeared among the collapsed obstacles.Tang Yi was bored and sat on the roof of an abandoned car, habitually trying to reach for a cigarette, but he couldn't.He sighed, took off his helmet, and ran through his messy hair.The car suddenly sank, and when he turned his head, it was Dr. Tan who sat next to him and handed him a piece of chewing gum.

"There are nicotine substitutes in it to help you relieve your addiction." The doctor smiled gracefully.

"……how do you know……"

"How many soldiers don't smoke? It's just that most sea monsters don't like the smell of smoke, so many people quit after joining the team. Besides, the air is so poisonous now, you have to poison yourself, Think you've lived too long?"

Tang Yi confirmed that Mercury was talking to another siren standing far away, so he dared to chuckle in a low voice, "Damn it, the bird is almost fading out of my mouth."

Tan Mingyuan smiled silently, and turned to look at the gradually rising mist in the distance, "To be honest, how long do you think you can hide it?"

Tang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head and rubbed his nose, "How long can we hide it... This is an order from the Ministry of Security."

"He's already suspicious of you."

Tang Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at the doctor's handsome side face, "What do you mean?"

"You have worked very hard. I can see that if you are not very careful, you will probably think you are Tang Ya when you are pretending. But don't forget that Mercury and Tang Ya have been facing each other for more than ten years. It can be said that Mercury was created by Tang Ya, so does he not know what the real Tang Ya looks like?"

Tang Yi felt a kind of coldness spread from the nerve endings, he forced himself to stare at the doctor, "Otherwise what do you think I should do? Just tell him that your master is dead and I'm a fake, please don't commit suicide?"

"Don't get excited, I won't tell the truth. If necessary, I can even help you. But, you remember..." The doctor stared deeply into his eyes, as if they were prophetic, "he will recognize you sooner or later .You have to be mentally prepared."

Tang Yi rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "Thank you for your 'encouragement'." Then he jumped out of the car.The doctor smiled as he tossed the nicotine drop into his mouth before spitting it on the floor and howling "FUCK!!!"

Ah...he forgot to tell Tang Yi that he made the candy himself.

Nolan hadn't received any communication from Tsuruta since about an hour ago.He tried calling several times with no response.Two hours were about to arrive. Nolan looked at the time and made a decision, "Everyone, get ready. We will head to our destination in 10 minutes."

Tang Yi glanced in the direction where Hetian and the others left, feeling uneasy.To be precise, this whole mission made him feel uneasy, he was in a hurry.

The entrance looks very inconspicuous, just a very ordinary manhole cover, hidden among a piece of camel thorns.After the manhole cover was pulled away, Tang Yi was stunned by a strong rancid stench.The bottomless hole stared at them coldly as if the eyeballs had been gouged out, and a row of crude ladders spread down on one side.Nolan went down first, Rose followed behind him, followed by Tang Yi and Quicksilver.They turned on the night vision function on their helmets, like a string of ants crawling down a narrow shaft.

The rotten smell in the damp became more and more intense, and the walls swept by the light from the watch were densely packed with pipes of different thicknesses, just like the criss-crossing blood vessels in the human body.The ground was pitch black, and there was a lot of greasy old garbage lying on it. The black water was almost solidified in the sewer, and the bottomless color made people wonder if there might be a pale, swollen corpse underneath.

There was a rustling sound between the walls, and countless black mice were frightened by the foreign invaders and ran away.Tang Yi's feet softened, and when he looked down, a black mouse was trampled by his military boots, and its brain burst, and the white mouse's brain sprayed all over the floor.Tang Yi's face turned pale, Dr. Tan's dark cooking appeared in his mind for some reason, and he almost sprayed his vomit into the protective mask.

In the darkness, Mercury's whole body exuded a layer of strange silver shimmer, as if covering his body with the moonlight he saw on the sea that night.The dark and dirty sewers are in sharp contrast to the silver and clean sea monsters. Tang Yi feels that Mercury is not suitable for this place at all.To be precise, he is not suitable for this world at all.

He felt that Mercury should live in the past, hundreds or even thousands of years ago, when the sea was still dark blue.

He felt an inexplicable desire to protect Mercury.

Just at this time, I saw a strange and crooked mouse running along the bank to the quicksilver's feet, not afraid of people at all.Tang Yi shot immediately, the microwave beam tore through the rotting darkness, and burned the insidious creature into scorched earth.Everyone was startled, and Mercury was also taken aback.

"There's something wrong with that mouse." Tang Yi simply explained.

Bob made a fuss and yelled, "I'm scared to death, there won't be viruses in the sewer too!"

"Tang Ya did the right thing, be careful. According to what Tsuruta said, shoot all animals that are not afraid of people." Nolan carried his huge ultra-high-energy laser gun in his left hand, and swaggered towards Rose with his right hand around Rose's waist. go forward.Tang Yi and Shuiyin followed behind him side by side, thinking that if he could also put his arms around Shuiyin's waist like this...

【What the hell am I thinking!? ! ! ] Tang Yi suspects that he has been pretending to be Tang Ya for a long time, is he a little too involved in the drama?I have only met this Mercury three times, and the other party is still a man, so what kind of love do I think of like a girl...

After walking a few steps, all the sirens stopped at the same time.Rose sounded the alarm, "Something is approaching rapidly ahead!"

All the soldiers raised their guns and waited in full force. Tang Yi asked, "Is it a human?"

"It's not...it's small things...a lot..." The butterfly-like vermilion fins on Rose's back stood up, as if feeling a strong threat.Tang Yi had the same reaction when he saw Mercury, the pupils in his blue eyes suddenly tightened, and the small cheeks on his neck opened and closed slightly.

The surroundings were terribly silent, everyone was staring at the depths of the darkness, and an unknown dangerous aura rushed towards them.

The first thing to come out of the darkness was a dark brown mouse.It was dirty, its hair was matted, it squeaked, it staggered but moved quickly, and ran towards them.

"It's been a mouse for a long time..." just as a member of the [-]th team finished speaking, three more mice suddenly ran out.Followed by more than a dozen... more than [-]... In just a dozen seconds, the ground a dozen steps away in front of them was dark, full of furry black mice, crowded and wandering , Hissing, black water gushed out like water.They exuded a strong rancid smell, and some of them were apparently at the end stage of the virus infection, and there were rotting pieces of meat dragging on the ground.

Take a bite from any of the rats and it will turn into something like them.
