Chapter 112 Past Failures

The battle was not difficult in the early stages. With the command and dispatch of the central AI, they could accurately find the chaotic phantoms hidden in the corridors and various small spaces, and then disperse and deal with them. But the situation was not so good afterwards.

The monster's 'arms' tore through the outer armor of the twisted barrier, and more and more modules inside were designated as dangerous areas that needed to be isolated. As a result, the energy and power that the central AI could mobilize became less and less. They were forced to move back again and again under command until they received the final notice from the central AI a few minutes ago.

[Please leave this space barrier immediately, the self-destruct sequence is about to be activated]

Finally, after the AI ​​marked the escape route for them on the map, no new orders came.

Originally, they were going to leave on that lifeboat, but...

In the suddenly ripped gap, a 'long arm' mixed with twisted objects penetrated the side of the corridor and then pierced into the structure inside the barrier. Under this sudden attack, half of the dragon sequence's companion's body was instantly torn off, and he was also knocked unconscious by the heavy metal armor. He woke up several seconds later due to the electric shock stimulation of the combat suit.

There was still severe pain and dizziness in his head, but the situation before him forced Jeremy to take it seriously as soon as possible. He had to take action immediately, otherwise he would become an insignificant number on the list of casualties.

Three meters ahead, the thick "arm" carrying various "parts" continued to penetrate deeper into the barrier. The process was like some kind of earth-drilling machine, and the scattered parts on the arm were all "flesh and blood monsters" corroded by the Chaos Phantom. This kind of thing was specially recorded during the Chaos Disaster in the early Tertiary Period.

Their composition is extremely complex, but most of them are lives that have lost their self-awareness after being corrupted by the Chaos Phantom, but are not completely dead. The souls inside them have long been shattered and messy, but their bodies are dominated by the Chaos Phantom, becoming something similar to the Chaos Phantom, with only instincts.

Compared to ordinary Chaos Phantoms, it may still use some skills and ways of speaking from its previous life under the influence of incomplete soul fragments or partial memories, but you must not be fooled by its appearance and think that it can still be saved, so as to be soft-hearted. Too many tragedies have occurred in history because of this kind of lucky hope.

Sometimes hope is not a good thing. It makes people feel lucky and thus become weak. At the same time, they cannot make up their minds and can never get rid of the current situation. Therefore, in the allusion, the goddess did not put out the last thing in the box out of pity, and its name was "hope".

What was now before Jeremy were several bodies that had been peeled off from the 'arm'. Two of them were probably the barrier staff who had passed through the module. One of them only had the upper body, and the other only the side of the body. They didn't seem to be completely dead yet. They looked at Jeremy with a little confusion, as if they were a little at a loss, and then moved closer.

Watching the various organs and parts inside it constantly wriggling on the ground, leaving long trails of blood, Jeremy felt nauseous, but his good training allowed him to hold back.

"Inject me with combat stimulants." He lowered his head and spoke under the helmet, and then heard a response from the portable AI in his ears.

"Yes, start injecting the t-470 stimulant. This drug will temporarily stimulate the host's physical fitness. Its effect will reach its peak within 20 minutes and then decay. After that, there will be a nearly 12-hour period of weakness. Please pay attention." The mechanical synthesized voice explained quickly, and then Jeremy only felt a slight pain in his arm, and then a slightly cold liquid was injected into his body. Soon the pain in his head began to disappear, and his body seemed to be extra strong and his reaction became quick.

"It's begun." His body sank slightly, then he rushed out suddenly, kicked away the bloody body coming towards him, and quickly picked up the annihilation gun left on the ground when he landed.

His fingers touched the gun, instantly releasing the self-locking system on it, and then he opened fire, shooting at the speed of blue light in segments. Three shots hit the target, making several holes in the flesh monster one meter in front of him. Then, while the opponent fell to the ground, Jeremy retreated again and kept his distance.

The battle angered the other flesh and blood remains in the distance that were originally uninvolved. Compared to the Chaos Phantoms, they still had some soul fragments and incomplete and twisted consciousness, so they would also produce some basic emotions, such as "anger".

These flesh and blood monsters rushed towards Jeremy. One of them seemed to be a dead fighter, with an annihilation gun on its drooping arm. The opponent's scattered shooting, although inaccurate, also made Jeremy tremble with fear.

This annihilation gun that was used to deal with the Chaos Phantom is naturally effective against humans. It can even easily tear apart his combat uniform. If a part is exposed for more than 0.5 seconds, it means penetrating the protection and burning through the flesh.

Even after being injected with a stimulant, Jeremy still broke out in a cold sweat. Then, while moving rapidly, he carefully avoided the muzzle of the annihilation gun, and then took advantage of the gap to quickly shoot and destroy it.

It was only about ten seconds, but it was like a life-and-death experience. After the opponent lost the gun that posed the greatest threat, Jeremy easily dealt with all these flesh-and-blood monsters that did not have much intelligence in the remaining minute.

[The energy of the annihilation gun is less than 10%, please pay attention to replace the battery.] Just when he was feeling happy, a mechanical synthesized voice rang in his ears, breaking this state.

"Well, I guess I shouldn't be too happy too soon." Jeremy began to scan the surroundings, looking for possible supplies.
