The Walking Dead: Rebuild

Chapter 207 Locking in Dr. Manhattan

The moment the micro-nuclear bomb exploded, the whole world seemed to fall into silence, followed by a roar like the earth was shattering, and a high temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees like the surface of the sun, instantly melting everything around it.

Whether it was the Black Watch troops and their aircraft and tanks surrounding the base, or Wilson who was still standing there, staring at the sky and had not yet recovered.

Whether it's the concrete buildings and remaining human soldiers on the ground of this base, or the tens of thousands of zombies pouring into the base from the gaps.

All of these seemed to be just inconspicuous dust in front of mankind's most terrifying killer weapon, evaporated completely in the high temperature without any sound.

Under the nuclear explosion, all living beings are equal.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes after the nuclear explosion that a group of figures wearing black metal power armor more than two meters high rushed from the forest outside the base to the place where the nuclear explosion occurred.

The protection of this high-tech armor, which is comparable to the defensive power of a heavy tank, cannot cause any damage to the warriors in the power armor, whether it is super-intensive nuclear radiation or high temperatures on the surface.

After arriving at the huge explosion pit, they endured various injuries and began to rummage for something in the still-high-temperature soil.

It wasn't until after more than ten minutes of rummaging and a dozen huge pits were dug out in some suspicious places that Gil asked Jesus with some concern:

"Captain, I haven't found him after searching for so long. Isn't Alex already dead?"

"Could he survive such a nuclear blast?"

Jesus looked at the signal locator in his hand in silence. Due to the huge interference caused by the nuclear explosion, they could not use the tool in their hands to find the coordinates of Alex's current location, and could only roughly determine a range.

"It should be no problem. The target of the micro-nuclear bomb we launched was not him, but the Black Watch troops surrounding the base."

"The impact point is some distance away from it. According to the staff's estimation, with Alex's recovery ability, such an explosion should not be able to kill him."

Jill sighed slightly and said:

"I hope so. Faced with the nuclear explosion, even if you don't die, it must be very painful. I don't know if Alex will blame us."

Considering the powerful power Alex possesses, if this operation on the European continent loses this sharp knife, the damage they can cause will be much reduced.

Jesus said with some regret:
"We have no other choice. There are too many Black Watch troops. Counting the remaining soldiers in the base, the total number is almost 1000. Plus the special mutant monster that Alex fought with is still there. Watching all around."

"We are the only team here. Even if we add Alex, there is no way we can be their opponent."

"We can only rely on miniature nuclear bombs to clear the field. It's better than Alex being captured."

"He should be able to understand us. This is also a plan that has been discussed before."

And as soon as Jesus finished saying these words, a large hole was suddenly dug out from the inside of the soil at the edge of the explosion pit. Alex, whose whole body was almost burned to coke by the high temperature, climbed out of the pit, and followed As he moved, the charred skin kept peeling off his body, revealing the bloody muscles inside.

While dragging his weak body slowly, he said in a hoarse voice:
"Don't worry, Mr. Jesus, I know your difficulties and I don't blame you for releasing the mini-nuclear bomb."

"However, please at least inform me before you release the miniature nuclear bomb."

Seeing that Alex was still alive, Jesus immediately came to his side, took out a special recovery injection potion containing Z element from his tactical pocket, and injected it into Alex's body.

And with the injection of this potion, Alex's body immediately recovered, and began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually returned to the perfect state before the battle.

This is a recovery potion made by Dr. Hathaway for Alex. It needs to consume a certain amount of Z elements, and the materials are quite expensive. Basically, as long as he is not burned to ashes, injecting this potion will restore him within a certain period of time. As before.

In the past, Alex thought he wouldn't need it, but it turned out that less than three months later, he is now using it.

Jesus manipulated the power armor, and used a mechanical arm to support Alex's body. Compared with the nearly [-]-meter-high power armor, Alex, who was originally a macho figure, looked like a monkey Thin.

"It's not that we didn't inform you, Alex. After the Black Watch troops arrived, the signal in the entire area was blocked."

"They must have guessed that you still have allies here and want to use this method to block the connection between us."

Alex nodded. He actually didn't think that much, and he didn't mean to blame Jesus and others. He was even a little happy to be able to eliminate so many enemies at once.

Moreover, we all have to deal with the forces of Freemasonry together. His death will not be beneficial to both parties.

Although they didn't get along for long, Alex could feel that the residents of the Human League were more civilized and more humane than other forces in the apocalypse.

While the two were communicating, Chris, who was also driving a powered armor, also came over and said:

"Captain, we have to leave. The nuclear explosion just now was too loud and has attracted the attention of the Freemasons."

"If we don't leave quickly, we will face an encirclement and suppression by the Masonic forces."

Jesus nodded and was about to lead the team away when Alex suddenly said:
"Wait a minute, I sensed something good."

As he spoke, Alex held on to his somewhat weak body and walked towards a position in the center of the explosion pit. As he walked, he hooked his hand towards Jesus and said:
"Here, Mr. Jesus, I can't support my physical strength. Come and help me dig."

Jesus did not refuse. As he walked in the direction indicated by Alex, he asked with some doubts:

"What are you trying to dig up? Is there anything that wasn't destroyed in the nuclear blast?"

Alex was silent for a second and said:

"If my feeling is correct, it should be another experiment made by that bastard in Manhattan."

Jesus paused, and asked in surprise:
"The one who just fought with you? Isn't he dead yet?"

"He was almost completely exposed to the center of the mini-nuclear bomb explosion!"

Alex directed Jesus to start digging the soil on the surface and said:
"According to the special induction between us, he shouldn't be dead yet, but he should be almost there." Jesus groaned, sighing in his heart at their monster-like vitality, and then controlled the power armor to start digging hard, probably digging. After about one meter, a bloody piece of flesh was finally dug out from the hard soil.

Judging from the outline, no human shape can be seen anymore. Only the outline of a human being can be seen from the exposed brain-like tissue.

Alex took the flesh and blood tissues handed over by Jesus, observed them and said:
"There is no other way, Mr. Jesus. He can't hold on anymore. There is no recycling value anymore."

Jesus nodded. He had no hope for this in the first place. Although it was a pity for this precious sample, since it could no longer be recycled, there was nothing we could do.

"Since there is no value for recycling, let's retreat quickly."

"Other Masonic troops are already on our way."

After hearing Jesus' proposal, Alex did not throw away the garbage in his hand, but remained silent for a few seconds, and then stretched out countless black tentacles from his arms, directly wrapping the bloody body tissue, With a faint whine, he completely devoured the body that originally belonged to Wilson.

Fortunately, although most of Wilson's brain has been destroyed, Alex can still obtain quite a lot of memories from it.

With his whole body shaking violently, Alex held his head, although his brain was in great pain due to the influx of memories.

However, after reading Wilson's memory, he couldn't help but reveal a ferocious smile.

Perhaps the bastard in Manhattan was too confident in his experimental subject. He actually got the location of Manhattan's laboratory from the head of this experimental subject named Wilson.

Although the base where he is located is almost the most defensive area in the Freemasonry, as the chief scientist of the Freemasonry and one of the giants who hold the actual power of the Freemasonry, once Dr. Manhattan is eliminated by them, then he can almost It can be considered that one-third of the power of Freemasonry has been eliminated.

Although Alex is now eager for revenge, he knows that with his own strength, he cannot break through the secret underground base where Dr. Manhattan is located and avenge his family.

So, after a brief thought, Alex raised his head and said to Jesus:

"Captain Jesus, I found Dr. Manhattan's location."

"This is very important information. We must have him report it to the President and General Ross as soon as possible and let them make a decision."

........................

In the People's Federation base, Leon put down the communicator in his hand, but he was a little undecided.

Alex discovered Dr. Manhattan's traces. This was very important information and its credibility was quite high.

If this bastard could be killed, it would undoubtedly cause unimaginable damage to the Freemasons.

After all, facing hundreds of elite soldiers from the Black Watch and Wilson, a special experimental subject, apart from the micro-nuclear bombs of the Human League, it was impossible for Alex to defeat these enemies without the cooperation of a large force. .

The result of this battle must have exceeded the expectations of the top Freemasons and Dr. Manhattan. In order to ensure that Dr. Manhattan does not escape after getting the time, they must make a decision in a short time, otherwise, they are likely to let the target fall again. run away.

However, the opponent's location is a research institute hundreds of meters deep underground that can defend against nuclear bomb attacks. Unless a large-scale construction team is sent out to rely on excavation to destroy the institute's defenses.

Otherwise, as long as they close the door, it will be impossible for the troops outside to capture it in a short time.

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help but sigh a little, unless they had a way to disguise themselves and enter the underground base, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to kill that guy easily.

However, fate is often such a coincidence. Just when Leon was almost giving up this rare intelligence, he ordered Alex, Jesus and others to return to the Black Light Force and continue to fight steadily, slowly consuming the power of the Freemasons.

Alex suddenly sent another communication to Leon, telling him something that seemed to be destined.

"Mr. Lyon, after devouring Wilson's body, I should have gained a new ability."

"I can [-]% disguise my body to look like Wilson."

………………

At night, in Dr. Manhattan's base.

Wilson, wearing a black suit, had arrived at the entrance of the underground base, accompanied by a group of soldiers.

On the screen of the metal door, Dr. Manhattan, wearing a white coat and without a single hair on his head, had a serious face. He looked at Wilson across the screen with a scrutinizing gaze and said in a cold voice:
"Captain Wilson, because of your recklessness, we lost more than 600 of the most elite Black Watch soldiers, a squadron of armored vehicles and armed helicopters, but you are the only one left alive in the entire team."

"Although you were lucky enough to kill the defected experimental subject, all his body samples were lost in the explosion."

"The top management of the organization is quite disappointed with your performance. You have failed our trust."

In fact, both of them knew very well that the failure of this battle could not be blamed on Wilson at all. He was neither the commander nor the main force of this battle. In this battle to ambush Alex, Wilson the The experimental subjects played more roles of bait and backhand.

However, facing the scapegoat sent by Dr. Manhattan, Alex knew very clearly from Wilson's memory that this young man was a very brainwashed and loyalist who would not resist any decision of his superiors.

So, Alex resisted the awkwardness in his heart, and controlled his expression into the memory of Wilson's slightly guilty facial paralysis.

He lowered his head sincerely, faced Dr. Manhattan's position, and said apologetically:
"Sorry, Doctor Manhattan, everything is my fault. I will bear all the losses caused by this mission and win more glory for the organization in future battles."

And on the other side of the screen, Manhattan saw Wilson's familiar humble attitude, and the last trace of vigilance in his heart dissipated unknowingly.

He acted like a superior, nodded slightly arrogantly, looked at Wilson and said:
"Come in, Captain Wilson. We must conduct a comprehensive examination on you. We hope to find some tissue samples of the experimental subject from you."

Because no one has ever seen anyone with such a disguise ability as Alex, after this conversation with Dr. Manhattan, Alex, disguised as Wilson, openly entered the most heavily defended building of the Freemasonry. , and it is also the highest-level underground research institute.

What they didn't know was that as the metal door opened, it was also their door to hell.
