94: Chapter 94 Special Event! The [Beast Research Lab] with its Lights On
Looking at the earnings from scavenging all night yesterday, Chu Hong nodded with moderate satisfaction.
[Remember this site domain and go to Taiwan novels for the full collection]
11.97 million.
"This was still exploited a bit by the damned Special Service Department's acquisition price. If converted to the external reality collection market, it would be at least thirty million..."
Chu Hong shrugged. Now that his scavenging routes had become increasingly skilled and proficient, aside from being a bit tired,
Chu Hong actually didn't worry too much about Source Energy points anymore.
He strapped a 24-slot large backpack onto his back.
After putting on his equipment, [Ba Xiaoying] and [Ba Xiaohua] sat on Chu Hong's left and right shoulders respectively.
"Enter [Cliffside Epidemic Hospital · Confidential]!"
...
The customary dark transition phase did not appear.
Instead,
just when Chu Hong was almost ready to judge where this round's landing would take place,
he was surprised to find that he had actually appeared on a helicopter, overlooking the entire [Cliffside Epidemic Hospital] from high altitude and taking in the whole situation.
He widened his eyes.
He saw that within the [Cliffside Epidemic Hospital], which ought not to have even a single bird's chirp and was completely covered by zombies and viruses, in the direction of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory],
a fierce battle was breaking out.
In his impression, the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory] building, which should have been breached, not only suffered no damage at this moment, but its surroundings were also filled with heavily armed personnel.
Right in front of them at this moment,
hundreds of densely packed zombies were endlessly and frantically surging toward the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory] from other places.
Seeing this, his vision went dark once more.
His feet landed on the ground.
When Chu Hong's vision recovered, he found himself standing at the spawn point of the south entrance of the [Cliffside Epidemic Hospital].
"What the heck! What the hell is this situation?!"
Chu Hong, who was encountering this kind of situation for the first time, was completely stunned in place.
Fortunately, at that moment, a prompt from the [Special Service Department] arrived.
[Ding!]
[Host triggered the [Investigation] area 'Cliffside Epidemic Hospital' Special Event — The Beginning of the Fall]
[The Beginning of the Fall: Pre-cataclysm timeline of the [Investigation] area 'Cliffside Epidemic Hospital' scene. The virus first broke out collectively in the [Main Hospital Building]. Although the [Epidemic Prevention Guard] launched infection elimination operations at the very first moment, the infection rate of the [omega virus] still exceeded the guard's control, and the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory] became humanity's last stronghold on this land.]
"This motherfucker can even be like this?!"
Chu Hong gasped.
At the same time, he couldn't help feeling fortunate inside.
In his mind, [Source Energy Middle School] had also taught such content, but according to the school's teaching materials, out of ten thousand secret realms with Special Events, having even one would be considered not bad.
Moreover, triggering such a Special Event was not easy either;
it relied on probability...
"Fortunately, I ran into this in the [Special Service Department]'s confidential-level instance dungeon. If I encountered this again in a real top-secret secret realm, wouldn't that directly blow me up?"
After understanding the situation, Chu Hong immediately exercised his traditional skill.
"Falcon, launch~"
The [flying bird drone] immediately transmitted the footage in real-time onto Chu Hong's armor visor.
Seeing that almost all zombies, and even the mutated zombie [Blood Fiend Butcher] from the [Underground Dissection Center], had walked out from underground, Chu Hong's face couldn't help but reveal joy.
Almost all the monsters on the entire map went to the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory].
"Doesn't that mean I can directly and safely loot the [Main Hospital Building] and [Staff Dormitory]? Even the [Sanatorium and Rehabilitation Center] and [Underground Dissection Center] can be looted at will..."
Suddenly,
Chu Hong paused his steps.
"Wait a damn minute! Then how am I supposed to take on the benchmark quest for this Special Event?"
...
"Doctor, they are here..."
Inside the [Core Laboratory] on the second underground floor of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory],
through the huge floor-to-ceiling bulletproof glass, [Hoffman] stared fixedly at a huge solution tank located in the third underground floor area below.
Inside it at this moment, a monster resembling a lizard, but with disgusting tentacles extending all over its body, was curled up with its eyes closed.
It was precisely the [Project Dominator Clone].
"What is the body activity value?"
A researcher holding a tablet nearby looked somewhat ugly: "1,375. From the safe range to safely peel off the [heart of the overlord], it is estimated to still take at least one hour."
Hearing this, a stalwart man in a combat suit beside [Hoffman] immediately shook his head.
"Doctor, given the currently remaining firepower and personnel allocation, one hour might be difficult to hold out. My suggestion is to escort you to evacuate first, and then we tighten our defense circle, hold fast to the underground area, and wait for headquarters to send people for support."
[Hoffman] shook his head, a pair of eyes reflecting cold light beneath his lenses gazing fixedly at the monster in the solution tank.
"This fellow is manipulating everything... It is ordering those infected bodies to come save it!"
[Hoffman] put down the tablet computer in his hand
and calmly gave an order.
"Order the Biological Weapon Department to prepare to activate [Fenrir], and let the [cobweb brain-computer interface] operator quickly go to the control room to prepare."
On the third floor of the [Main Hospital Building], inside a room hanging a sign that read "Dean's Office",
Chu Hong crouched in front of the desk, one hand skillfully and swiftly dialing the password on a large safe.
"10086"
"Click!"
Retrieving [Safe (High-Value Container)]: ...
One two-slot, one one-slot.
[Ding!]
"Yo, a [gold bar]~"
[Ding!]
"Yue~ You bastard actually forgot to put blue-quality earrings in the big safe too. And you call yourself a dean with this! Ptui!"
Just as Chu Hong put the [gold bar] into his backpack, he suddenly heard a familiar yet ferocious roar coming from the direction of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory].
His expression changed slightly.
He strode over to the window.
Through the dim twilight light, under the huge searchlights of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory],
he suddenly saw a huge container.
Surrounded by a group of people wearing hazmat suits and spraying the container as if applying pesticide, it was slowly transported out from the underground floodgate on the side of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory].
Amidst the intense gunfire, Chu Hong could faintly hear an officer of the [Epidemic Prevention Guard] roaring the order to evacuate.
Hundreds of [Epidemic Prevention Guard] members immediately began to organize an orderly evacuation, entering the interior of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory] one after another.
And almost at that exact instant,
"Click~"
amidst the sound of air pressure discharging, the iron door on the side of the container slowly rose,
revealing the ferocious black wolf crouching inside and slowly opening its eyes.
Its terrifying body was nearly seven or eight meters long, complete with fangs and sharp claws, truly resembling [Fenrir], the monster from Western legends.
[Project Code Fenrir Matrix]!
Chu Hong's pupils shrank slightly.
In the transmitted footage from the [flying bird drone], he clearly saw that a ring of metal artifact was locked around the neck of [Fenrir], and even at the back of its huge wolf head and neck, something seemed to be embedded.
"Awooo~"
[Fenrir] let out a fierce roar.
The moment the container opened, it lunged straight out.
The mutant zombie [Blood Fiend Butcher], standing over three meters tall and resembling a small giant, wore a fierce and hideous expression on its ugly zombie face covered with black and red scars.
With a pair of glowing red eyes, it was about to charge into the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory].
"Puchi!"
[Fenrir]'s sharp claws, resembling a guillotine blade, swept across fiercely. The latter's body was instantly split in two from the middle, and its exaggerated bone-cleaving broadsword fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Roar——!"
In front of the [Exotic Beast Research Laboratory], which originally could almost only passively defend and watched step-by-step as its defense line was about to fall under the siege of massive numbers of zombies,
[Fenrir] incarnated into an impassable loyal hound in front of this building.
Blazing purplish-blue flames spewed out from its mouth,
instantly enveloping the hundreds of zombies in front of it and burning them into piles of flying ash in the blink of an eye.
Biting! Clawing! Unleashing flames...
Watching [Fenrir] unilaterally tyrannize all the zombies until they began to retreat, a flash of shock could not help but cross Chu Hong's eyes.
This [Fenrir]... why does it look so good at fighting?
Clearly just a mutated monster, when fighting, it was far too much stronger than the [Fenrir] in his impression!
[Exotic Beast Research Laboratory], third underground floor.
Inside a room heavily guarded and even sealed with a steel door,
two stalwart men were sitting on chairs with ferocious expressions, each wearing a circle of [cobweb brain-computer interface] around their necks, their faces flushed so red that their pores seemed to be oozing blood.
From time to time, wolf howls resembling a beast's roar faintly came from their throats.
