Age Of The Sirens

All the soldiers felt their scalps go numb, and quickly picked up their guns, and at the same time issued an order to their sea monsters, "Do it!"

Rose was the first to take a step forward, her wine-red curly long hair was lifted up by some invisible force and fluttered in the wind.She opened her hand slightly, took a deep breath, and suddenly a sharp blade-like scream shot out from her throat with a violent wind, and all the pipes on the wall trembled and resonated amidst the sound Moaning, the echo continuously strengthened and amplified the sound waves, and the invisible force crashed into the sea of ​​mutated mice like a huge wave.

In the next moment, the mice that were first touched by the sound wave exploded one by one like meat bombs, the eyeballs were the first to pop out of the eye sockets, the flesh and internal organs flew all over the sky like fireworks, and there was a "puff puff puff" sound when the flesh and bones were torn apart One after another.Flesh and blood flew everywhere the sound waves passed, like a huge scarlet wave rolling through the black tide.Tang Yi was stunned by this magnificent scene of carnage. This was the first time he had seen the power of the Kraken in actual combat.At this time, the roar of countless little feet stepping on the ground and harsh hissing sounds came from behind them, and the other three sea monsters also released huge biological energy carried by sound waves.The black corpse and blood of the mouse fell into the murky black water, and the splashes splashed everywhere like rain.

The team members didn't even need to make a move, and the rats were wiped out in a short time.Tang Yi thought to himself that having a sea monster among them was just a display. The power of the latest microwave guns and laser guns in their hands was insignificant compared to the biological energy of a sea monster.

The Army often calls the Kraken team the "Invincible Supermodel Legion". It turns out that the name focuses on "Invincible" rather than "Supermodel"...

"Everyone be careful, don't let the skin be stained with rat blood when passing those corpses." Nolan raised his gun and continued to move forward, his heavy military boots making a sticky sound as they stepped on the pool of blood and rotten flesh.The other team members are also accustomed to such a scene.Tang Yi tried his best to restrain his urge to open his mouth into an O shape, and secretly glanced at Quicksilver beside him.He remembered reading on Mercury's information that this silver-haired siren with slender arms and legs once led two other sea monsters to forcefully kill a supersonic nuclear submarine with biological energy... He couldn't imagine that kind of biological energy. What a terrifying force it would be.

At this moment, a member of the [-]th team suddenly screamed in pain.Tang Yi turned his head abruptly, only to find that a mouse that had been blown up by the sound wave to the front half of its body was biting the team member's ankle, and the hard leather boot was bitten.The team member's siren kicked the rat flying with a shriek, its brain exploding before it hit the ground.Everyone was stunned by this sudden change. The sea monster helped the pale-faced team member sit up and down a thick pipe by the wall, and took off his military boots for him with trembling hands.There were two bright red blood spots on the white socks, so small, but it caused the sea monster to let out a low cry of despair.

"No no no..."

Everyone was silent, and Tang Yi didn't even know the name of that team member, but his expression was blank, as if he had lost his mind.

Before going to the battlefield, every soldier hopes that if he will die, at least he will die like a hero, perish with the enemy or die for the base or for mankind.But the reality is often cruel, and you may be infected with the Leviathan virus by an ugly rat in the sewer and die without even seeing the shadow of the enemy.

The soldier's sea monster hugged him tightly, looked at the medical officer of the fourteenth team in a panic, and murmured, "Please..."

But no medical officer stepped forward to help him heal, and everyone just looked at him with a strange but helpless expression.

In the deathly silence, the soldier looked desperate, and slowly took out a laser pistol from his waist, aiming it at his temple, with tears streaming down his eyes.

Tang Yi was aware of the opponent's decision, but was surprised to find that no one stopped him.The team member was about to pull the trigger, when suddenly a gust of wind hit his face, his wrist numb, and the gun flew out.He opened his eyes in panic, and saw Tang Yi slowly withdrawing the kicking leg.

"Why..." The soldier stared blankly at him, his eyes were somewhat relaxed besides fear.He thanked someone in his heart for stopping him.He didn't want to commit suicide, but in this situation... If he didn't do it, someone else might do it too...

The other team members also looked at Tang Yi in surprise, as if they couldn't understand him.And Tang Yi couldn't understand why they all watched their comrades commit suicide so calmly.A certain nightmare that had haunted him for many years rushed into his mind. The blood-soaked man was lying in his arms, desperately clutching at the hem of his clothes, as if holding on to the last straw, panting in vain.That was his best friend since he was a child. He told him over and over again "you will be fine, don't be afraid, everything will be fine", but what he said was not the truth, he couldn't help him at all, he could only watch The friends who put super glue on the dean’s doorknob together when they were young, were assigned to the military academy together, beat up the bully in the military academy, entered the army together, and went through all kinds of inhuman training together opened their eyes. With eyes full of horror, he exhaled his last breath unwillingly.

He still remembers his friend crying and saying over and over again, "I'm so scared, I don't want to die."

Tang Yi suppressed some kind of anger, turned around and asked Tan Mingyuan, "Is there a [-]% chance of being infected with Leviathan virus from a mouse bite?"

Tan Mingyuan said, "No, but these mice have reached the end of the disease, when the virus is most contagious, and the probability of infection is as high as 80.00% or more."

"That is to say, there is still a [-]% chance of not being infected." Tang Yi turned his head and stared at the desperate team member, "If you belong to that [-]%, don't you think you died in vain?"

"Tang Ya!" Nolan walked over quickly and pulled him a little further away. Because he was worried that Mercury would eavesdrop, he deliberately covered his mouth with protective earmuffs, and said in a low voice, "You didn't know when you came here. The written tradition is that once bitten or scratched by the enemy, you will kill yourself immediately. One is that everyone does not want to develop to the end and die so disgustingly, and the other is that the blood is contagious from the early stage of infection. Although it cannot be detected, this will greatly increase The possibility of other team members being infected. Just leave it alone."

Tang Yi stared at him, "What if he is not infected?"

"There is an [-]% chance, why do you say that he is one of the few [-]%?" Nolan was also a little impatient, "This is already a well-recognized rule, even Tang Ya will not object. Otherwise, in case The virus spread and caused more casualties, can you afford this responsibility?"

Tang Yi clenched his hands into fists, "Where's his sea monster?"

Nolan was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what he meant.He complained in his heart why Tsuruta entrusted him with the task of taking care of the newcomers, while trying to explain patiently, "The Kraken is naturally taken care of by the team. You don't have to worry about this. The missions performed by the Kraken team are the most dangerous, and we all With such awareness, looking forward and backward like you will only drag everyone down, you have to get used to our tradition."

Tang Yi knew that his behavior had caused other people's uneasiness, but it was difficult for him to get used to it.Death is obviously such a terrible and hopeless thing, and there is only one life, why do they give up so easily?Perhaps for this kind of severe infectious disease, committing suicide immediately regardless of whether he is actually infected is the safest and most convenient solution to preserve the collective interests, but he just can't get through "what if he is in the 20.00%?" "This hurdle.

Tang Yi turned his head to look at the team member who was sitting uneasy on the ground, his sea monster was holding his head in his arms, gently comforting him.Although the siren's singing is not as beautiful as mercury, it is still soft and sweet, and it looks extraordinarily pure and gentle in this dirty sewer.Tang Yi could tell that the team member didn't want to die at all, his eyes were too similar to those of his friend before he died.Even if he could only live for another 10 minutes, he didn't want to die.

After all, it is a human life... How can a human life be sacrificed just because of excuses like "easy" and "uncertain"?What kind of tradition forces a person to commit suicide before he is sentenced to death?What's more, this person is still a comrade in arms fighting side by side.

"I'll take him to explore the way ahead, you follow behind, don't approach us. I promise, if he shows any symptoms of infection, I will kill him immediately with my own hands." Tang Yi raised his eyes and looked directly at Nolan.That calm and menacing gaze was full of some kind of dangerous pressure.

Nolan was a little surprised.Before Mercury appeared, Tang Yi's impression was always casual and unkempt. Although he also pretended to be serious and cautious like Tang Ya, he only learned form but not spirit.But now this look is full of danger that is completely different from Tang Ya's - a bit like a wolf's look.

He suddenly didn't dare to refuse the other party's proposal.

So he could only sigh irritably, "If you are like this, you will be recognized by Quicksilver sooner or later."

Tang Yi returned to the team, and Mercury's eyes fell on him through everyone, as if gently pricking his skin.Tang Yi didn't dare to look at him, so he went straight to the team member and squatted down, "You and your sea monster will explore the way ahead with me. After the task is completed, a doctor will test you."

The sea monster looked at him gratefully, but the team member blinked uneasily, "Is this... okay?"

Tang Yi directly grabbed him by the collar and picked him up, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get ready."

So the situation became that Tang Yi and Shuiyin walked in the front, the infected soldier and his beige-haired siren followed behind, and the rest were led by Tsuruta to walk a hundred meters away.Tang Yi now knew that the soldier was named Gao Yan, who had just turned 19 this year, and had only been an official member for less than a year.Tang Yi felt a little sad when he remembered that the recruits he led in the army barracks were only of this age.

In addition, he found that Mercury became more and more silent.

In the half hour just now, he didn't even say a word to himself.

Tang Yi felt a little guilty, a little uneasy, wondering if what he did just now was too much, and Shuiyin became suspicious of him.But if given another chance, he would still make the same choice.This decision may not be rational, but he always believes that a balance point can be found between collective interests and personal interests. Perhaps this kind of thinking is a bit too naive for his age, but he feels that people To live in this world, one has to naively believe in something.

The underground waterway system existed before the old city was abandoned. After the construction of District 210, it was only modified on the original basis. Therefore, the waterways here are extremely intricate, and it is easy to follow the detection map projected on the watch. go off.Tang Yi suddenly felt that he was walking in the stomach of some disgusting creature. The dense pipes on the top of the head and on the wall were blood vessels, and the black water channel in the middle was the flowing intestinal juice.As for the greasy and unidentified garbage on the shore, it is probably digestive residue...

Along the way, I encountered some aggressive mice sporadically. Fortunately, the Leviathan virus only works on warm-blooded animals. Otherwise, the cockroaches crawling all over the ground and the toads crawling on the shore would be impossible to kill.There was a lack of air circulation in the sewer, and a layer of sticky sweat formed in the armor. Tang Yi stopped at a fork in the road to identify the direction.

At this moment, Quicksilver grabbed his wrist suddenly and pulled him into his arms.Just when Tang Yi was in a state of desperation, thinking why this Mercury was in heat regardless of time, place and place, and was about to break free, he felt something rush into the air from behind him.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw a woman in a nurse's costume lying on the ground. The white nurse's skirt and body were covered with dirty mud, which made her skin turn blue.And on the bare arms and plump chest, large pieces of rotten skin are peeling off, the nails have been broken, most of them have fallen off, the condensed black hair hangs down, and the face cannot be seen clearly.

The woman let out a low grunt, and when she moved slightly, she could hear the uncomfortable clicking of bones and joints dislocating.Her movements were twisted and weird, as if all the joints had been disconnected and reassembled the wrong way.Her head was turned at an unfathomable angle, revealing an unforgettable face.One eyeball fell out of the eye socket, and was pulled by several elongated extraocular muscles to hang on the cheek. The other eye was covered with yellow and red bloodshot things, and the lips had rotted away, revealing a Rows of teeth scattered.

Almost reflexively, Tang Yi fired a microwave gun, burning a bloody hole in the woman's face instantly.However, some other vague figures appeared from the passage on the left.They came running, so fast, but their posture was extremely distorted.The most surprising thing is their number.

It was a dark place, filled with countless people.Their animal-like gasps echoed in the originally silent sewer.Gao Yan behind him was also shocked by this scene, and said, "shit!!!"

Tang Yi's first reaction was to back away while protecting Mercury, and at the same time turned on the communicator and shouted, "Don't come over, there are a large group of zombies ahead!!!"
