"This mission is also very important. It's possible that we will find a way to deal with these aliens and drive them out of their home!"
Night Owl's expression hardened, and he gave the orders: "Parrot, Raccoon, you two are responsible for escorting Dr. Wei to the capital. The rest of you, come with me to the amusement park!"
"Yes, Captain!" all the team members replied in unison.
“In addition—” Night Owl’s gaze swept over everyone, “In order to ensure that the mission can be completed more quickly and effectively, the higher-ups have ordered us to inject the X virus and become the first batch of X virus injectors.”
With a "gulp," Lightning swallowed hard. Inject...inject the X virus?
The X virus sounds similar to the T virus. On the one hand, he was excited because he thought that after injecting the X virus, he might become as powerful as Alice, the female protagonist of "Resident Evil". On the other hand, he was afraid that after the virus mutated, he would not become a superman but instead become a zombie.
There were thirty X-viruses in the metal box. Dr. Wei took out seven of them, put on white rubber gloves, and inserted the syringes into the glass tubes.
Lightning couldn't help but ask, "Dr. Wei, does this X virus have any side effects? For example... what kind of accidents might happen?"
"You don't need to doubt this. The X virus here is the final product. We have conducted many research experiments. However, the process of modifying the body with the X virus will cause severe pain. The person who is injected may die from the pain. But you are soldiers. Your physical fitness and mental strength are far superior to ordinary people. I believe you can endure it."
Hearing Dr. Wei's words, Xia Linyin couldn't help but feel guilty. After all, she wasn't a real member of the special forces, and she didn't know if she could withstand the pain brought by the X virus. But no matter what, she had to accept it.
Because one of the messages given in the game is, "A soldier who obeys orders is a good soldier!"
This is a hint that the players' task is currently pending, but they are not completely clueless or directionless. All they need to do now is follow the instructions of their captain, Night Owl.
Xia Linyin hadn't forgotten her painful experience in the previous game, which had given her the message, "Being loyal to your duty is a traditional virtue. There are some escort missions you can't take, but once you do, you must escort the goods to the designated location. As long as you are here, the mission is here."
Later, the Millennium Female Zombie was damaged, and the game determined that they were not qualified bodyguards, thus triggering a side quest.
This is the punishment given by the game.
Therefore, when the game provides information, players need to pay close attention to every word and every sentence.
“Soldier, do you have any questions?” Night Owl looked at Lightning with a serious expression.
“No, of course not.” Lightning shrugged.
“Alright, then let’s start with you!” Night Owl declared decisively.
Lightning's eyes widened in disbelief. "This isn't fair! Captain, you're too cunning!" she exclaimed, throwing the item in frustration.
Resigned to his fate, he rolled up his sleeves, glanced at the large syringe in Dr. Wei's hand, and quickly turned his face away.
Dr. Wei swiftly and efficiently injected the X virus into Lightning's arm.
After being injected with the X virus, Lightning quickly collapsed to the ground, convulsing and foaming at the mouth, with the veins under his skin bulging and throbbing.
He then began to roar, seemingly slamming his head against the ground repeatedly because he could not bear the immense pain.
"Black Bear, hold him down!" Night Owl commanded.
The team member codenamed Black Bear was a muscular man who was two meters tall and had a very strong physique. His arms were covered in bulging muscles. He walked towards Lightning and used only one arm to firmly pin down Lightning's struggling body.
After receiving the injection, Night Owl lay on the ground, clenching his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
As Dr. Wei walked towards her, Xia Linyin took a few deep breaths and then stretched out her arm.
The cold, pale green liquid was slowly injected into Xia Linyin's blood vessels, and the X virus flowed through her limbs and bones along her bloodstream.
A piercing, excruciating pain struck, and Xia Linyin collapsed to the ground, her body convulsing uncontrollably. She was struggling to breathe, as if someone had covered her mouth and nose and choked her throat.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
My heart pounded heavily against my chest, with such force and speed that it felt like it would explode at any moment!
It hurts! It hurts so much! It hurts to the bone!
Every part of my body was screaming in pain; it felt like my bones were being broken one by one and then put back together.
Sweat soaked through her clothes from the inside out. Xia Linyin curled up, clenched her teeth, and her nails dug deep into her skin as she strained. She kept telling herself the same thing over and over.
"Just a little longer, just a little longer! It'll be over soon!"
This is her fourth game. She hasn't been killed by ghosts, monsters, or corpse beetles. Is she going to die in agony now?
No! ! !
"Ah!!!" Finally, what felt like an eternity to Xia Linyin, the pain in her body slowly subsided.
But strangely, she didn't feel exhausted after suffering intense pain. Instead, she felt full of energy, as if she had been reborn!
Her vision became clearer, and her hearing became more acute; she could even hear noises outside the laboratory.
Xia Linyin stood up from the ground, stretched her limbs, and her bones made a cracking sound. She felt like she could kill a bull with one punch!
This feeling is wonderful, as if I have inexhaustible energy.
With a loud thud, the black bear slammed its fist into the ground, creating a large dent in the hard metal floor.
A fleeting look of surprise crossed his face as he looked at the effect he had created with satisfaction. Was this the effect of the X virus?
Unfortunately, this physical modification cannot be brought back to the Grand Hotel. Once they return to the Grand Hotel, they will revert to their original physical condition.
Lightning pushed off the ground with both feet and leaped off, reaching out his arms to touch the roof of the laboratory.
Although he knew that the X-virus they created was extremely powerful, Dr. Wei couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "It's amazing!" after seeing the abilities displayed by the team members after their virus modifications.
"Alright, let's go!" Night Owl gestured.
After reopening the laboratory door, the group, with Dr. Wei holding the X virus in the center, moved towards the elevator.
A helicopter was parked on the rooftop of the experimental building. After pressing the floor number for the top floor, the elevator kept going up.
Xia Linyin's watch displayed a map of her floor, which she saw was constantly updating as the elevator ascended.
After leaving the previous floor, the red dot reappeared on the map.
"bite--"
The elevator stopped moving upon reaching its destination, and the elevator doors opened. The instant the doors opened, a huge wave of aliens rushed out!
