Ark of the Immortal

Melantha then remembered that before this war started, Ace called Melantha into his office one day and said he wanted to talk to her about something.

At that time, Ace told Melanza that she was already within the assessment scope of elite operators and needed time and experience to encourage everyone to give her points.

This process may be longer, but it will also allow Melanza to get involved in some more dangerous tasks, and Ace will also have to determine her own wishes.

Melantha would naturally be happy. After obtaining her teacher's consent, Melantha expressed her willingness to Ace.

There is no doubt that this time the doctor asked the A1 preparation team to follow Melantha, which also meant to accelerate Melantha's growth.

So, after putting on the rappelling equipment, several elite operators started rappelling together with Melanza.

Remember to keep in touch, our safety is in your hands.

After saying this, they jumped down slightly from the gap on the edge. The rope was tied to them, hanging their bodies firmly, and then slowly descended with the help of the members who stayed above.

In fact, everyone has the ability to go down on their own. But because of the safety period, it is safest to use equipment.

This hole is not very high, it looks very deep. But only about two minutes passed before everyone descended.

When everyone stood firm on the ground floor, they looked up again, and they could only see a hole with light shining down, like looking up at the sky from the bottom of a well.

At this time, there was a sound in their headphones.

The rappel distance is fifty meters. Sirs, you can unpack your equipment.

The rappelling device can measure the depth of the drop through the rope that is shaken out. Sometimes, the rappelling device is also used to measure the depth of well water. These are all improvised uses.

So, I watched most of the rappelling equipment being recovered upwards, leaving only one or two ropes still hanging in place for use as emergency evacuation ropes.

The people who descended to the ground also retracted their sight.

Okay, stop looking, it's working time now.

Ace clapped his hands, calling everyone's attention back.

Turn on the searchlights and let's see what's here.

Everyone turned on the searchlights and saw that in this space that was dozens of meters high, the four walls completely blocked the way out, and there were several huge chains on the ground.

One side of the chain was embedded in the wall, while the end of the other end was corroded by something, leaving only the rough tip remaining after corrosion.

There was even some molten steel solution on the ground, but it had completely lost its temperature.

It seemed that the dragon had indeed escaped from here. Almost every link of the huge chain was as tall as an adult male.

The surrounding walls, including the floor, were densely covered with claw marks.

Predictably, these are the traces scratched out by the dragon's struggle and anger.

Logos took out a portable camera from his body and recorded everything that happened here.

It seems like this dragon is also restless.

Huang turned on the searchlight while imagining the situation at that time.

No wonder he was so angry after he rushed out.

But this does give us a message. This dragon may not completely obey its maker.

Scout is keenly aware of this feature.

If it is really a monster created by Traces, then Traces should be able to make this dragon as obedient as easily as he can control those monsters. But it is very irritable, and even the chain was broken before escaping. Go.

This is quite a discovery.

At the connection between one of the walls and the floor, an exit with half of the door destroyed was exposed to everyone.

When they saw this door, the elite operators immediately took a defensive stance.

Scout held the short knife at his waist and placed his left hand on the handle of the crossbow.

Huang stood in front of Melanza and held up the handle of his chainsaw.

Doctor, Ace calls doctor.

Ace raised his shield and pressed it on his headset.

Soon, the doctor's response came.

I can hear you, Ace, how's it going?

We have arrived at the location where the dragon appeared. Logos took some photos and will transmit them to you via the communicator later.

There is a lot of space here, and there is a gate leading to an unknown road. The gate seems to have been destroyed. Do we need to conduct detailed exploration?

This is probably related to the infected people who disappeared in Londinium. I need you to follow this path.

As the doctor spoke, he received the photos from Logos with the help of his assistant.

Well...I received it. It seems that this dragon also has a bad impression of Tracys.

Just by looking at the photos, the doctor came to a conclusion similar to Scout's.

In summary, keep moving forward, remain vigilant, and obtain more information while ensuring your own safety.

clear.

After the brief communication ended, the team, mainly composed of elite operators, slowly advanced and entered the half-damaged door.

494. Sign for receipt

Obviously, the doctor's judgment was correct. This was not just a place to imprison the dragon.

It is also a secret base used by Tracy's men to conduct experiments.

In a sense, what they saw was evidence of Tracy's cruelty and ruthlessness.

my God...

Scout frowned, and this sentence came out of his mouth subconsciously.

It's all because of what they saw after they walked through the dilapidated door.

Dozens of corpses and various containers filled the entire passage. Even the operators who came from Rhode Island to investigate didn't have a place to stay.

What the hell is going on here, Jesus.

Huang's eyes widened and she took a step back in fright, even bumping into Melanza who was behind her.

Melanza took a look over curiously, and her face immediately turned pale.

If it was just an ordinary death, no one would be so surprised.

They are all elites who have experienced the battlefield and will not feel uncomfortable with a bunch of dead people.

But what if it wasn't just any corpse?

The bodies were wrapped in pitch-black mucus, and the black crushing that still remained in the broken containers became the last traces on these corpses.

The basic shape of some corpses could no longer be identified. Even their physiological structures have been alienated and become some kind of unidentifiable creatures.

After Logos and Scout briefly adapted to these shapes, they even felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

Why does it look so similar...

After Scout found one of the corpses and knelt down to examine it carefully, he said doubtfully.

Their physical changes resemble those of sea heirs.

Logos came to Scout and patted him on the shoulder.

I know what you are going to say. This is somewhat similar to the new generation heirs we saw in the lower levels of the Alk in that dream.

Both of them knew part of the truth.

Especially what happened on the Alk.

What Alk? What are you talking about?

Ace came over curiously, trying to find out what Scout and Logos were talking about.

Scout and Logos looked at each other, and then tried to use simple words to explain the ins and outs to Ace.

On the way to search for Agor, we experienced a dream. It was a dream created by the god of the Heirs. The Heirs we met in the dream looked very similar to these corpses.

When he said this, Scout subconsciously glanced at Melanza who was standing behind Huang.

Melanza was the last one to enter the passage. When she saw the bodies of these guys, she stood there in a daze.

In that dream, Melanza's role was also very important.

Scout clearly remembered that the silt aggregate was invulnerable to everyone, but only Melanza could cut off part of its body and have a substantial impact on it.

Perhaps this is part of the doctor's belief in Melanza's value.

But Melanza's performance now is a bit dull, and she doesn't look as agile as she did in her dream.

Melanza, what do you think?

Scout seemed to casually bring the topic to Melanza.

Melanza reacted for two or three seconds, then raised her head after realizing it.

At this time, everyone was looking at her with some concern in their eyes.

Feeling uncomfortable?

Huang came to Melanza and reached out to touch her forehead.

This is not the same as Melantha's past situation, and they don't want to see such a stupid and stupid Melantha.

No...it's not.

Melanza shook her head quickly and said there was nothing wrong with her.

It's just that I remembered something.

Melanza frowned, a little distressed.

I always feel like I've missed something, but Senior Scout is right. These guys look a lot like the monsters in the dream!

After receiving Melanza's affirmative answer, Scout and Logos continued.

In the end, when Agor stopped the Lord of Dreams, we saw the phantom appearance of Traces with our own eyes. Maybe he has these researches because of Heir.

As Logos spoke, he continued to take pictures of these scenes with the camera in his hand.

But the question is, where did he get so many heirs?

one of the team members behind Scout asked.

Haijir?

Ace shook his head, he corrected.

These people are not heirs.

As he spoke, he rummaged through the piles of corpses, and finally found something that looked like a card from the pressed corpse, and showed it to everyone.

They are residents of Victoria.

What is above this is Victoria's citizenship certificate, which contains the owner's name and place of origin, the most basic information.

I think we have found the whereabouts of those missing infected people.

While saying these horrifying words, Ace stood up from his half-crouched state and patted his hands that had just touched the almost corrupted flesh.

That's why we're here to fight Trasis, isn't it.

Ace looked at these corpses with a little resentment and helplessness in his eyes.

Yes, just as Ace guessed.

After the fall of Londinium, those who disappeared, including the infected who were taken away by the Iberian sergeants, basically gathered here.

They became props for Tracy's research and spent their last days in the underground facilities of Londinium, and their bodies stayed with these containers.

These corpses here should only be a small part. There are a lot of people in Londinium. Although there are many people who escaped, there are not just a few dozen people.

Ace picked up his shield again, pulled down the eyepiece hanging on his head, and held it in front of his eyes.

Let's go first, let alone the intelligence, we have to at least see if there are any survivors.

...

After passing through several corridors, the view before everyone became wider and wider.
