Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 661 Black Well
The two rushed out the door immediately, ran to the corridor, and looked down.

Aya, who was wearing power armor, fell to the ground, a tentacle covered with mucus and blood got in from her mouth, wriggling constantly, and the other end of the tentacle was connected to the one that was only five or six The body of a little old girl.

"This little girl is a container?!" Ke Lan felt his scalp go numb, and jumped over the railing in front of him. tentacle.

Ke Lan grabbed the broken tentacle that was about to drill into Aya's stomach, and pulled it out forcefully. Along with the tentacle, there were also a lot of blood and visceral fragments... the foreign body that occupied the throat After being taken out, Aya immediately coughed violently, but every time she coughed, blood splashed out from her nose and mouth, and soon dyed a large area of ​​Ke Lan's clothes red.

After crushing the struggling tentacle with one foot, Ke Lan took out the spare stimulant and blood tonic from his pocket, and inserted them into the injection hole on the surface of the power armor.

Many organs in Aya's body have been crushed under the ravages of the tentacles of the Seed of Corrosiveness. The internal organs have been damaged and a lot of internal bleeding. The reason why she can still breathe is all due to the strength of the high-level enhanced person. His body was struggling.

What's worse, many places in her body have been invaded by the cells of the Corrosive Seed. Even if she can save a life by surgery, she still cannot escape the fate of being infected and parasitized.

"Cough...cough..."

Aya opened her eyes with some difficulty. Her vocal cords and trachea had been damaged by tentacles, and she was unable to speak, so she could only look straight at Ke Lan.

Ke Lan understood the meaning in her eyes - she wanted to have a good time.

As a member of the Security Bureau, Aya knew very well that she was hopeless... The infection in her body was so severe that even if the internal organs and body were removed, there was no way to recover. The cells of the seed of erosion had penetrated into the bone marrow, and along With blood and body fluids spreading to the whole body.

In addition to the severe pain, she could also feel a maddening itching, as if there were countless small granulation twitching under the skin, ready to come out at any time.

"You should close the mask of the power armor." Ke Lan said to her.

Aya lifted the mask earlier in order not to scare the little girl, but she never imagined that the little girl she was holding in her arms actually had a parasitic erosion seed that was about to enter the catastrophic period, and she was the least prepared for it. when he attacked her.

If she hadn't lifted her mask, her injuries wouldn't have been so serious, and she wouldn't have been infected by the cells of the erosion seed.

Aya shook her head with difficulty.

"You want to tell me that it's too late to say this now, right?" Ke Lan turned his head, and on the other side, Akira Asano had already borne the seed of erosion that came out of the little girl's body, and the tentacles scattered all over the ground And the fragmented body parts are rapidly decomposing and festering, and the stench mixed with the smell of blood permeates the house.

"Lend me the knife." Ke Lan said.

Asano Akira shook off the blood on the saber and threw it away.

Grasping the handle of the knife in the air, Ke Lan lowered his head and glanced at Aya, who was already dying, and then penetrated the tip of the knife into her body.

……

"You avoided the vital points in her body?" Akira Asano's ears twitched imperceptibly. Although his eyes couldn't see it, the tentacles of his mind could clearly capture the angle and direction of Ke Lan's knife. depth.

"Of course, I want to save her, not kill her." Ke Lan said, "This knife can temporarily suppress the erosion seed cells in her body, and as long as she can change to a cyborg prosthetic body, she will can survive."

"Like Ivan?" Akira Asano tilted his head.

"Ivan just lost an arm. If she said it... I think the parts below the nose will have to be replaced." Victoria's figure could not help but appear in Ke Lan's mind.

"The medical team came in to save her immediately! Be careful not to have any contact with the injured body, blood and body fluids, she has been infected by the cells of the Corrosive Seed." Ke Lan shouted into the communicator.

According to the regulations of the Security Bureau, agents infected by the Corrosion Seed must be "handled properly" regardless of whether they are dead or alive... But as Ke Lan, he has full authority to modify this rule.

"You just need to save the lives of the injured. I will send someone to take over the rest of the matter, whether it is follow-up treatment or replacement of artificial organs and cyborg prosthetics." Ke Lan added.

At this time, Asano Akira came out, holding a delicate white arm in his hand.

This is a severed arm, from the little girl who was parasitized by the seed of erosion.

"Look." Akira Asano said.

On the inner side of the arm, there were several needle holes that had not healed, which seemed to be newly pierced.

When the security bureau surrounded the Williams mansion, the little girl was injected with a high concentration of erosion seed cells, and more than one injection was given.

If Ke Lan hadn't seen the photo, he would have wondered if this girl was Roger Williams' biological daughter.

Tiger venom doesn't even eat children... and this group of people, using the word beast to describe Ke Lan felt that it was an insult to the word beast.

A helicopter hovered over the manor, and four Security Bureau agents wearing power armor specially designed for medical soldiers jumped out of the cabin and landed in the central courtyard.

Aya, who still had the Akira Asano sword on her body, was carried onto a folding stretcher. The four agents quickly connected the life support device on the back of the power armor, and at the same time injected Aya with a large dose of adrenaline.

"Remember, don't pull out the knife during or after the rescue." Ke Lan said to the four agents, "Make sure the blade is in direct contact with Minister Breya's body—this A knife can suppress the erosive cells in her body and delay the infection process, understand?"

The four agents nodded vigorously before loading the stretcher into the helicopter.

Immediately afterwards, Ke Lan and Asano Akira also jumped into the cabin.

"In the mansion of the Williams family... there should be no survivors." Ke Lan said in a deep voice, "Allow the military to use large mechs and heavy weapons to directly bulldoze the entire mansion."

"Yes!"

……

……

Security Service, Headquarters.

Aya didn't know how many hours she had been in a coma. In a state of blurred consciousness, she vaguely remembered that she was first penetrated by Ke Lan with a knife, and then carried onto the plane by her colleagues... They injected herself with a lot of medicine ... Then came a lengthy operation... And then, my body seemed to be put into the medical cabin...

The cells of Corrosion Seed will contaminate the LCL liquid in the medical cabin, right?

Are they trying to save themselves?

But... the degree of infection is irreparable, right?

She felt as if she was falling deeply into the abyss, and everything she could see was darkness... But at this moment, fresh air was suddenly pumped into her lungs, and a strong electric current flowed along her limbs and bones Come on!
"Ugh..."

Aya couldn't help but let out a groan, but at the same time, she heard a human voice coming from very close.

"Successful! The new prosthetic body was successfully activated! All indicators are perfect, and the fit is almost [-]%!"

"The assimilation of those invading cells has also been suppressed! The ore fragments provided to us by 'that' really have such a miraculous effect!"

"Check again... Oh, she seems to be awake?"

……

Aya tried to open her eyes, and found that she was lying on a sterile operating bed covered with a laminar flow hood. Beside the bed stood a row of equipment she could not name, countless pipes and cables. These devices extend all the way to the bed, connecting with the interfaces of various parts of her body.

"The brain waves, heart rate, and blood pressure are all normal." A person standing in front of the testing equipment said, another person in a sterile suit walked up to him, took out a medical flashlight like a pen from his pocket, and pointed it at the Aya's eyes flickered, and after realizing that Aya's focus of sight would consciously track the light source, he lowered his upper body excitedly and asked softly: "Can you hear my voice? If you can, blink your eyes. "

Aya blinked.

"Very good, the consciousness is clear." The other party nodded, and the assistant beside him quickly took notes on the tablet.

"Then do you remember who you are?" the other party asked again.

Who am I... I am... Aya Breya... an agent of Ark Security...

Aya blinked again.

"Can you still remember what happened before you fell into a coma?" The person in the sterile suit continued to ask, "We need to confirm whether you have symptoms of amnesia... Your body has replaced a large area of ​​cyborg prosthesis , There are more than [-] lines connected to the spinal nerves and the cerebral cortex alone, which may have a certain impact on your brain."

"Don't worry, think slowly, it doesn't matter if you don't remember it, don't worry." He said again in a gentle tone, "Everything is over, you are safe now, and you have plenty of time, you can think slowly. "

Things before the coma...

Aya's body couldn't help shaking violently—she clearly remembered that the body temperature of the little girl in her arms suddenly rose sharply, and then, a tentacle broke out from her chest and attacked herself face!
It was impossible to dodge this kind of almost zero-distance attack. I only had time to utter a shattering cry, and the tentacle went along my mouth and into my throat...

Later... Then Ke Lan appeared... He pulled out the tentacle, but it was too late...

I want to ask him to kill me, but I can't make a sound, I can only use my eyes to convey the message...

Fortunately, he understood the look in my eyes... He took the knife and stabbed towards me...

I'm not dead?
Aya froze for a moment?Am I saved?

However, the tentacle that invaded his body has already reached his stomach in one step, and the internal organs have been severely damaged. In this case, the cells of the seed of erosion have already flowed throughout the body along the blood, which is logically impossible Block the infected...

Could it be... Could it be that he has become a container for the seeds of erosion?

This thought immediately made Aya a little desperate, and she struggled unwillingly, wanting to sit up.

"She's very emotional! She's on the verge of losing control!" The person in the sterile suit suddenly became tense, holding Aya's limbs with his hands, "Push her with twenty units of sedatives! Use a restraint device! If necessary, you can cut off the energy supply of the cyborg prosthesis!"

Accompanied by a burst of mechanical noise, several mechanical arms protruded from the edge of the laminar flow bed, imprisoning Aya's hands and feet. At the same time, an indescribable sleepiness surged from the depths of her brain.

"Am I really... am I going to become a monster?" She thought with despair, and fell into a deep sleep again.

……

North District [-], the office building of the United Parliamentary Group, the sixth basement floor, the entrance to the "Black Well".

Ke Lan walked into the elevator alone, and a dark red laser scanned him slowly from head to toe, and a mechanized female voice sounded in the car: "The identity verification is complete, welcome to Heijing, Your Excellency the Pope. "

The so-called "Black Well" is actually the only external terminal of the General Archives. This terminal is buried deep underground in the North District [-], and only members of the Undead Crew Club can enter it—the "external archive" connected to the Ark Network. The data of the "library" are all sourced from here, and the news that can be "public" will be provided to different departments and institutions according to different authority levels after being screened layer by layer (with deletions and changes). The original, most primitive, and most complete data will all be sealed in the black well.

For the sake of safety, Heijing did not connect to the Ark's network, but adopted a clumsy but very reliable method of information storage—a vast amount of data was stored in countless large-capacity physical hard drives. The hard drives are neatly stacked on labeled cabinets, just like the archives in the old era that were responsible for collecting and preserving file files.

Ke Lan handed over the work of the Disaster Relief and Rehabilitation Office to the Hound, Zofia and others. Although they were somewhat suspected of nepotism, at least Ke Lan could trust their character and ability.

As for himself, he has more important things to do.

Calculated according to the time, Aya Breya's prosthetic body modification surgery should have been completed by now. In order to suppress the erosive cells in her body, Ke Lan provided a lot of stalagmite fragments for the technician in charge of the operation to implant them into Aya Breya. Ya's prosthetic body, and these fragments also reminded Ke Lan of many things.

The abyss of the underwater city, the unnamed island without day and night, the underground ruins where the prehistoric species were once kept in captivity... and the mysterious mission that the 776 special team once carried out.

And that puzzling secret phrase.

The answers to these things lie in the black well.
