Thrive in Catastrophe

In less than 30 seconds, all the pursuers were wiped out.

This greatly boosted morale.

Xiao Yan stretched out his fist subconsciously in the direction of Casey, which was a gesture of celebration.Immediately, he felt a little carried away, and just as he was about to withdraw his fist, Casey's fist hit him.Xiao Yan's heart trembled, and a smile appeared on his lips.

The two did not relax, because they both knew that these pursuers were probably just cannon fodder sent by Valentine to test their strength.

Xiao Yan couldn't help but be amazed that the surging Antarctic base was right in front of him.In just a few months, Valentine actually built such a complete base in Antarctica. Through the scanning of the aircraft, the base is extremely deep and the structure is stable. Even the most important supporting material is made of ultra-density titanium. Xiao Yan couldn't believe it, where did he get the manpower and material resources!

Just when they were less than 200 meters away from the base, the aircraft suddenly plummeted!

Xiao Yan and Casey couldn't control the engine at all, as if there was a huge and irresistible force pulling the aircraft down.

The situation got out of hand, Xiao Yan and Casey issued an alarm, and at the moment when the aircraft was about to touch the ground and crash, everyone was ejected from the aircraft.

The sound of the explosion caused an avalanche from a glacier in the distance. When Xiao Yan rolled down to the ground, he could feel a violent tremor. The hot air burned along Xiao Yan's back. The combat uniform isolated the damage caused by the high temperature, and Xiao Yan got up quickly. , when he was sure that everyone left the aircraft safely, he let out a breath.

"Damn—what's going on!" Mark yelled.

Heine squatted on the ground, pushed aside the thick snow with his palms, and saw a layer of metal-like substance.

"It's a magnetic field. Valentine used a magnetic field conversion device to destroy the engine function of the aircraft. No matter how powerful the brain is, the pilot cannot resist the damage caused by the magnetic field to the engine."

Xiao Yan immediately contacted the backup force, warning them that they must not drive the aircraft close to this area before removing these devices.

When he turned his head, the gray base in front of him was like a beast moaning in the cold wind, ready to swallow them up.

Wen En sneered, "Are you sure we want to go in? Will Valentine really open the door and wait for us to come?"

Even knowing that this is a trap, they still have to move forward.The support troops stopped at the outer edge of the magnetic field conversion device and were dismantling it.

"Let's go." Jane stepped forward step by step with no expression on her face, leaving a row of footprints on the ice field. Casey followed behind him without saying a word, carrying the terminal device on her back.

When they came to the entrance of the base, Jane stopped and said coldly, "Xiao Yan, Casey, turn on your wireless terminals!"

After finishing speaking, Jane pressed her palm on the door, his biological information was recognized, and only heard a "Welcome home" from above her head, which belonged to Claire's voice. Casey's shoulder paused slightly, and the door opened slowly. Open it, and there is a deep and seemingly endless passage in front of it, and the cold wind is howling and pouring in, making a hoarse sound.

Jane took out the double blades and raised her foot to step in. Casey was about to grab him, but his first step had already landed, and instantly the whole passage was brightened from the outside to the inside.

"Is this saying welcome?" Mark scratched his head.

"He won't let us in easily." Casey snorted coldly, lowered the eyepiece to scan the wall of the passage, "There is a laser emitting device installed on the wall, no matter how strong your healing and regeneration ability is, you will be cut into flesh by the laser Even God can't save you."

"Lasers... are so retro, I thought he would launch missiles directly!" Wen En took out the silver wings from his waist, and flew out along the ground, sensing the weight, several lasers swept across, and the silver wings were cut into pieces Shard of Metal, "How Do We Get Through?"

Jane smiled and moved her wrist, "Of course it is to destroy all laser emitting devices."

As soon as he finished speaking, Heine took out the condensation gun and assembled it neatly. In almost half a second, he held the condensation gun and rushed into the passage.

"Heine—" Xiao Yan was about to step forward, but Jane suddenly pushed him back, and Xiao Yan crashed into Casey's arms.

"Do you think Jane and Heine are ordinary people?"

When they rushed into the passage, the laser shot out, like a net, once it was cut, the consequences would be disastrous.

The three of Wen En guarded Xiao Yan's side, while Hai Yin stepped on the wall, turned around in the air, and a laser light passed through his raised arm along his ankle, but Hai Yin almost cut himself open when it almost cut himself open. The trigger was pulled in two halves, destroying the laser launch port.The moment he landed, two or three more lasers were fired alternately, constantly changing the angle.

Xiao Yan's heartbeat tensed for a while, and his brain was calculating the angle in an instant, and Heine seemed to have an indescribable tacit understanding with him, passing the first laser beam exactly as Xiao Yan imagined. Destroy the laser just before it changes, and then smash the third laser with a half-tilted body.

Jane, on the other hand, seemed direct and rude. He reflected the laser with the blade of the blade, and refracted it at a special angle to destroy other laser emitters.It was only then that Xiao Yan realized that Jane's sword was also made of super-density titanium, so it could reflect laser light. This should be Casey's masterpiece.

Xiao Yan pulled out the gun from his waist, looked at Casey, and the two understood.It is impossible for Jane and Heine to completely dispose of these laser emitting devices, the passage is too long!

Wen En did not stop Xiao Yan, but followed closely behind.

Xiao Yan's rapid-fire ability is top-notch even among special mission forces, because the laser emitter is not an organic substance, and the condensation gun cannot automatically track the target and can only be aimed manually.The more Heine and Jane went to the inside of the channel, the more intensive the lasers became, and the speed of change became faster and faster. Xiao Yan had to remove the obstacles for them to reduce the burden in advance.Within one second, Xiao Yan fired two shots in succession. The condensed bullets brushed the broken hair next to Heine's ears and sank into the wall in the distance. Reached the end of the passage.

Mark and Liv carefully guarded Xiao Yan and came behind Heine.

The gate to the base was closed at this time, Xiao Yan tried to use the communicator to contact the foreign aid troops, but the signal could not be sent out.

Xiao Yan closed his eyes and pressed the back of his head against the wall with all his strength. They had no way out now.

"Can you invade the master control here?" Jane stretched out her finger, and was about to poke Xiao Yan's cheek when He Yin grabbed her. He Yin's hand firmly blocked Xiao Yan's face, his fingers were extremely Pushing hard, Xiao Yan heard a rattling sound, it was Jian's finger bones that were breaking.

Xiao Yan clasped Heine's wrist, making him let go of Jane.Jane flicked her fingers and smiled indifferently.

"It's impossible to invade, not only the contact signal is blocked, but I can't even catch any usable signal inside this base." Xiao Yan frowned.

Wen En put his palms on the wall, and said with a cold snort: "It seems that Valentine is really afraid of Xiao Yan's brain, and he doesn't intend to let his mind connect to the system here easily. The configuration here is so old-fashioned. Make modern means useless."

"What do you mean?" Mark poked his head and asked.

Winn pushed Mark back, "You don't need to understand what it means!"

They moved forward all the way, and the road in front of them led to the bottom of the base.

Mark lowered his head and looked down. The entire space was illuminated very brightly, but there was always a sense of eerieness surging up. The ground was like a glass mirror, which made people wonder how it had been washed and polished.

"There won't be mutant monsters down here, right?"

"Of course not. We have all been injected with the Sharon virus, and any zombies will no longer be able to attack us." Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, and he admitted that he felt very uncomfortable at this moment, because every step now seemed to be a step away. Within Valentine's plan, they had no other choice.

"Calm down, you once said 'not fully prepared', for us, and for Valentine as well."

When Hai Yin's words sounded in Xiao Yan's ears, his impetuous heart instantly calmed down.

"let's go."

All the way down, the entire base was empty, and one could not help but wonder if anyone else was really here besides them?

This kind of silence made Xiao Yan feel an inexplicable tension. Liv, Mark, and Winn have always maintained a triangular formation to protect Xiao Yan's surroundings. Now Xiao Yan only wants to find a control room or a research room, as long as he can By connecting the systems here, we can figure out the structure of this base.

And the empty base had already made Mark lose his patience. He lowered his voice and cursed: "Damn—is Valentine really hiding here! There's nothing!"

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, looked up at the entire space above his head, there were countless closed doors on the wall.

"Not necessarily nothing."

As soon as the words fell, the doors opened in an instant, and there was a faint sound of rapid sliding down.Everyone was on high alert. When an object passed over their heads, Mark quickly pulled out a sharp knife to split it open, only to hear the sound of bones and muscles shattering, blood falling from the top of their heads, accompanied by the smell of some kind of laboratory nutrient.Hai Yin dragged Xiao Yan over, and the corpse fell down, everyone was stunned.It was a corpse, which looked like a boy of twelve or thirteen years old. His eyes were wide open, his body muscles were obviously atrophied, and his facial features were out of balance. It made people feel familiar but couldn't remember where he saw it.But when Xiao Yan saw the mole in the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but look in Jane's direction.

Jane lowered her head and used the blade to turn the corpse's face in her direction. There was no warmth in her eyes.

"It's a failed replica. If I'm not mistaken, this is Valentine's factory where 'Kids' are made."

At this time, more than a dozen corpses were drawn out of those holes. When they hit the ground, some of their skulls were shattered, and some of them were completely deformed.

"Let's leave as soon as possible! Obviously this layer is used to deal with the failed clones! The dissolving agent will be released soon! Any organic matter will be dissolved!" Casey warned sternly, seeing more and more corpses falling down.

"Damn it! No wonder the floor is so bright!" Mark yelled.

"How do we leave? Where are we going? There is only one road here, and there is no point in going back along the same road." Liv frowned.

Without further ado, Hein ejected the sliding rope, pierced into a pipeline for handling corpses, and stretched out his hand towards Xiao Yan, "Let's go!"

Xiao Yan nodded, this pipeline must be connected to the laboratory that manufactures and trains replicants!Where there is a laboratory, there will be a terminal!Xiao Yan climbed up along the rope.The inside of the pipe is very smooth, and you can only barely move forward if you hold on to the curved wall. There are corpses that almost slide down face to face with them. Resisting Xiao Yan's feet, Xiao Yan barely supported himself.The nutrient solution from the body rubbed against Hai Yin's body. In order to withstand Xiao Yan, Hai Yin's muscles tensed all over, and she had no time to care about the greasy liquid.

When Xiao Yan managed to hold the exit of the pipe with great difficulty, two more corpses fell down, almost pushing Xiao Yan down, but Hein groaned and forcefully pushed Xiao Yan up.Lying on the ground, Xiao Yan was stunned by the scene in front of him the moment he raised his head.

In the dark space, countless petri dishes are displayed, and each petri dish is a clone. They are sleeping peacefully in the nutrient solution. Xiao Yan looks around, and even the farthest place is faintly flickering with petri dishes. bright.They all came from the same DNA as Jane, some still babies, some just a few years old, and some close to adults.

In a certain petri dish not far away, a clone suddenly twitched all over his body. His eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at Xiao Yan from no focus to crazy. Trying to come out, as if he couldn't breathe, he struggled desperately in the nutrient solution.As he struggled, his skin gradually peeled off, revealing bright red flesh, and as the nutrient solution penetrated, his pain doubled.

This clone failed.

Xiao Yan didn't know how to look away, until a palm suddenly covered his eyes and pressed him to the embrace behind him.

"do not look."

Hai Yin's cool voice flooded into Xiao Yan's mind, he subconsciously clasped the other's wrist, feeling the rise and fall of the other's chest when he breathed.For Xiao Yan, this is the proof of being alive, Heine's temperature and Heine's breath.

There was only a "bang--" sound, and the dead replica slipped from the bottom of the petri dish, was conveyed by the machine, fell into the conveying pipeline, and was disposed of like garbage.

When Heine's palm moved away, another embryo was implanted in the petri dish in front of Xiao Yan, like a nightmare reincarnation.

Wen En and Liv managed to drag Mark up. The big man was washed down by corpses several times, and everyone was dumbfounded by what they saw.

"My God—how many... are they really all Jane Wallis?" Mark tapped his finger on a petri dish in disbelief, "that is, Valentine Sheehan You can even create an army! And an army with special missions capabilities! Oh my God!"

"Yes, that's how Casey and I came to this world. There are many unstable factors in copying a complete life directly with DNA. Valentine also hopes that we will be more adaptable to the X virus, so we accept the X virus. Virus embryos are more prone to deformities and premature death. Out of hundreds of thousands of replicants, only one may survive. This is the difference between us and you, we never know where we really belong. Ah... no, From a genetic point of view, I am Valentine Sheen." Jane pulled the corners of her lips mockingly.

"Even if these petri dishes are not connected to the main control, at least they are connected to the research room here!" Wen En carefully observed the structure of the petri dish, looking for the line that can connect the wireless terminal carried by Xiao Yan, "the The wiring is so weird..."

Xiao Yan frowned, "Wen En, you don't need to check, the petri dish here is not connected to the terminal at all. You only need the most primitive information control system, and repeat the process of cultivating replicants according to the program settings! "

"Damn it! How are we going to continue looking for Valentine when we get to this ghostly place?" Wen En pointed to the distance, as if the entire base was occupied by petri dishes.

At this moment, Xiao Yan felt something approaching quietly from the distant darkness.At that moment, countless silver wings were released, smashing the petri dishes mercilessly and even penetrating the replicants' bodies to attack them.Everyone dodged in an instant, Xiao Yan stepped on the petri dish with his left foot, and pulled out the dagger pinned to his thigh while flying in the air, parrying the silver wing stabbing at his waist.The moment he flew into the air, Xiao Yan realized that it was not a few people who attacked them, but a group of people.

A cold light flashed by his side, and the moment Xiao Yan's dagger collided with the opponent's blade, he could clearly see the opponent's face.

"Jane—what are you doing!"

At this moment, Jane suddenly fell to the ground, and two killers who looked exactly like him attacked his shoulders with blades from left to right.

"My mother—how many Jane Wallis!" Mark cried.

It turns out that these killers are Jane's clones!

The Tide killers were tough enough, if they were on Jane Wallis' level, it would be disaster!

Xiao Yan lowered his body, the dagger pierced the killer's abdomen, then went around behind him, and stabbed the dagger hard into the back of the killer's neck.

The moment the killer fell down, Xiao Yan met his eyes and shuddered.Those eyes were completely different from Jane's, cold to empty, without the so-called fear of death, as if his existence was like a machine.

There was another killer attacking, and nutrient solution flowed out of the broken petri dish behind Xiao Yan, he slid down suddenly, and the moment he fell to the ground, he would ruthlessly throw the dagger, the opponent's blade separated Xiao Yan's dagger, In an instant, Heine cut off his neck.When swarms of killers kept coming, Hein grabbed Xiao Yan and turned around to block their attack, with an imposing manner.The killers were afraid of Hai Yin, and moved slowly to find a gap to attack.

Xiao Yan lowered his body and picked up the sword blade dropped by the killer. At the moment when the killer attacked Hai Yin, Xiao Yan skimmed over the two killers with ease, swung the blade of one of them, and slashed across the waist of the other. At the same time, after retreating, he turned around and smashed the back of his head with the handle of the knife.Everything happened in less than a second. When the killer fell, he stared at Xiao Yan with wide eyes, unable to believe his own death.When a certain killer was about to sneak attack Xiao Yan, Hai Yin stepped on the half-broken petri dish, slashed in the air, along the killer's shoulders and towards the chest, attacking with an irresistible momentum.

Xiao Yan turned around and kicked the killer's lower body away. When his upper body fell to the ground, he was still trying to hold the blade tightly, and Xiao Yan kicked his head off.

Not far away, Mark and Liv teamed up to kill several killers, and Wen En was covered in blood all over his body.

What surprised Xiao Yan was Casey's skill, which was dexterous and unpredictable. When he unscrewed the head of a certain killer, there was no look of pity on his face. He knew exactly what his goal was and what he wanted to do. determination to do it.

Not to mention Jane's arrogance, his blade pierced a killer's chest and threw him out. The blade crossed a sharp semicircle, forcing the killers to back down while he attacked without fear. , seemingly random, but with the experience accumulated in years of fighting, he can always make the most lethal assassination in a subtle moment.

Wen En put his arm on Mark's shoulder, admiring Jane's last blow. This time, his face was serious. Jane was hailed as Heine's successor, and it was not for nothing.

"I said that while it's nice to be able to kill Jane Wallis over and over again, it's really disgusting to see the same face all the time."

Wen En spoke slowly.

Jane put the sharp blade into the sheath on her back with a smile, came to Xiao Yan with a smile, lowered her head slightly, "Oh, your hair is all dirty."

"These killers didn't come out of petri dishes. They were trained and finished." Xiao Yan looked down at the corpses everywhere.

"Although it is a finished product, it is far from my standard. If one-third of them are as strong as me, even Heine Burton cannot guarantee to take you away alive." Jane squatted on the ground, Looking at the faces that are exactly the same as themselves.

Heine walked towards the depths of the darkness, and Xiao Yan followed.

"Boss—where are you going!"

Liv finally pushed Mark impatiently, "Idiot! These killers came in from other places! If they can come in, we can get out!"

They moved forward, passing one undamaged petri dish after another, and finally found an open passage door on the ground.

"It feels like we are stepping into Valentine's trap step by step, and we can't extricate ourselves." Liv frowned, "I have a bad feeling."
