The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Chapter 160 The real "Twelve Branches" are actually around you

At an intersection one kilometer away from Tokyo Tower, several giant strange monsters were fighting together. Ultraman's battle with the little monsters finally became a reality in Sakura.

However, Shen Ge obviously didn't think it was a big deal, and lured one after another. This was on Sakura's territory anyway, and no one would bother him no matter how much he messed around.

"Detective Shen!"

As soon as Shen Ge rushed out of the busy street, he saw a familiar figure running towards him.

After Fang Mingyue received the news from Shen Ge, she immediately started to "attract monsters" and attracted a level 3 monster that was wandering in the east block.

The equipment carried by Fang Mingyue is not much less "mobile" than Shen Ge's sneaky boots, including the flexible bone stick that can be retracted and switched between forms, the grappling hook gun, and the elastic cushions of the sneaky arm guards. These pieces of equipment can move freely between the buildings in the neighborhood.

"Go this way!" Shen Ge jumped up. When he jumped down from the building, the extended tentacles of his arms wrapped around the stone pillar not far away, and then swung to the middle of the street.

Shen Ge originally wanted to wait for Fang Mingyue to come over, then take her and swing his tentacles directly to the distant roof to attract the level 3 weirdo behind her.

As a result, Fang Mingyue swung up from the air with a grappling hook gun in hand and didn't mean to stop. Instead, she picked up Shen Ge and carried her away.

"..."

Fang Mingyue obviously didn't notice Shen Ge's subtle expression, and asked subconsciously: "Detective Shen, why did this strange fog suddenly disappear?"

Shen Ge replied: "The people from the support team just sent a message saying that Sakura used a mysterious fog-repelling bomb that can drive away the fog in a short time."

"I see." Fang Mingyue nodded. After following Shen Ge's instructions and landing on a building, the two of them worked together to introduce the level 3 strange creature into the battlefield.

Fang Mingyue asked: "Should I continue to attract the weird people from East 2 District?"

Shen Ge confirmed the locations that maintained the seven layers of strange space through the [Map]. The original plan was to bring the seven together to take the opportunity to break the strange space.

Shen Ge was about to nod when he received a message from the communicator. When he opened it, Luo Jing told him about the situation of the underground facilities and focused on the monitoring issue.

"An underground facility similar to Bang Country?" Shen Ge was immediately interested. Since the strange appearance, the whole world has been doing some research behind the scenes. This is not surprising.

But with the emergence of the twelve branches, this mysterious organization dares to claim to be the second in the world in weird research, and no country dares to claim to be the first in the world.

Even the Great Celestial Empire and the Beautiful Kingdom, which have developed the most rapid research on guile, dare not pat their chests and guarantee that their research on guile is above twelve branches.

Take "human experimentation" for example. In this regard, the Great China could be said to have broken through the southern wall before turning around. It suffered a huge loss and even went so far as to strictly prohibit continued research.

But not only did the Twelve succeed, those who were the captains of the brand also blatantly used the "results" of human experiments to cause destruction all over the world.

If the twelve branches could really reach a level far beyond the world with just one "organization"? This is also a question that Shen Ge has never been able to figure out.

Until the Haiya Research Institute was "exposed", Shen Ge suddenly thought that even if the Twelve Branches wanted to study weirdness, they didn't need to open a research institute of their own.

They can use various methods to place their people in research institutes in various countries, whether as researchers or experimental subjects.

"Detective Shen, is there something wrong?" Fang Mingyue couldn't help but asked when she saw Shen Ge was distracted staring at the communicator.

Shen Ge said in a deep voice: "Luo Jing just received news that there is an underground research institute under the Tokyo Tower area. The console in the research institute monitors a large area. It is said that this is a research base built by the Beautiful Country in conjunction with Sakura. As for research, Luo Jing hasn’t figured it out yet... but I suspect it has something to do with the Twelve Branches, otherwise I can’t think of anyone who would make their city look like a testing ground.”

"Then... let's go to the underground research institute now?" Fang Mingyue asked.

Shen Ge nodded.

The two jumped from the roof of the shop to the street. The parasitized people around them immediately shook their weird and terrifying heads and gathered towards them.

Shen Ge asked Xiaoqi to analyze and scan the information sent by Luo Jing, then scanned the [map] and quickly determined a route.

Fang Mingyue looked at the densely packed balloons with human heads flying in the sky, and said anxiously: "Tan Shen, these parasitized people are making too much noise, and they have attracted all the balloons with human heads in the sky."

Shen Ge suspected that these human-head balloons were strange new parasites studied by the Twelve Branch. He personally saw several survivors being chased by human-head balloons.

There is a tentacle-like rope hanging under the human head balloon. When the tentacle wraps around the survivors, it will strangle them to death and then drag them into the air. The balloon will open a bloody mouth and swallow the corpse. , and then the head balloon will turn into the face of the corpse that was swallowed.

Shen Ge finally discovered that as long as it comes from the Twelve Branches, there are more or less clues that can be found on them.

"Don't waste time on them, let's go." Shen Ge stretched out a tentacle with his left hand, the tip of which was a weird stomach, bit the stone pillar in the distance and flew himself out.

The extended tentacle of the other hand wrapped around Fang Mingyue's waist. Fang Mingyue was also used to this way of "moving" and knew how to use the power of the tentacle to stabilize her body.

The two people evacuated from the "air", so they also attracted a large number of balloons with human heads to attack them. The low-level weird and parasitized people did not intend to let them go, and they all crowded towards the direction where the two people were evacuating.

At this moment, there was a sound of a balloon bursting in the air. Fang Mingyue looked up and saw a giant balloon floating in the distance.

It is inappropriate to call it a human-headed balloon, because its entire head is a cube, with long tentacle-like whiskers floating below it.

Wherever this large "balloon" floated by, it swallowed all the balloons with human heads around it. As more and more balloons with human heads were swallowed, the strange square face became bigger and bigger.

"Detective Shen, there's a big guy." Fang Mingyue shouted.

Shen Ge replied calmly: "There is a bigger one in the distance."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise like the ground was shaking, and the building in the distance collapsed, and then a huge thing rushed out of the ruins.

"Tsk, this thing looks really unique, like an alien hybrid." Shen Ge complained and deliberately stayed on the roof for a few seconds.

The "square head" in the air immediately floated over, and the giant weird on the opposite side also noticed Shen Ge and the square head in the air.

Shen Ge originally just chose the shortest way to leave, but unexpectedly, an unexpected combination of circumstances led to the remaining two high-level weirdos coming out.

Now, all seven high-level weirdos gathered near Tokyo Tower. It is estimated that the reconstruction project of Tokyo Tower can already be put on the agenda without waiting for the disaster to end.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The giant strange creature rushed towards Shen Ge with huge steps. The buildings, brick walls and rubble that blocked its path were trampled to pieces.

With the help of weird boots and tentacles, Shen Ge led Fang Mingyue through the air through the streets where the parasites gathered. At this time, the giant weird and Fang Ren collided with each other. The third-level weird's weird power was obviously better than that of Shen Ge and Fang Mingyue. The temptation of two living beings doesn't require the two of them to fight each other, and the two weirdos start fighting.

In just ten minutes, the entire neighborhood was reduced to rubble.

At this time, Shen Ge and Fang Mingyue followed the route provided by Xiao Qi and came to an electronic parts processing factory near Tokyo Tower.

Entering the factory, the two men immediately smelled a disgusting smell of rancid blood. They walked inside and pushed open the big iron door. They saw that the factory building of several hundred square meters was filled with parasitized people whose human skin had been stripped off. The corpse, some low-level weirdos were gnawing on the corpse.

This place is like a factory that feeds weird things. There are all kinds of weird things, most of which are centipedes. It looks like you are going to suffer from trypophobia.

Shen Ge didn't intend to waste time on these weird things, so he and Fang Mingyue bypassed the weird things and went all the way to the innermost office.

There are also piles of corpses with human skins peeled off around the office. They are thrown here like feed for those weird people to gnaw on.

Walking into the office, the environment here immediately reminded Shen Ge of Bang Guo's control room disguised as a toll booth. On the wall were monitors monitoring the surroundings of the factory. Several headless corpses were lying on the console, already dead. .

"Search around, there should be something similar to an elevator here." Although Shen Ge can use collapse to go directly underground, but if he doesn't know how deep it is, it's best to take the elevator. Both of them were veteran agents of the Special Strategy Department, so it was not difficult for them to find the mechanism. After a while, they found the switch in the corner and discovered the elevator leading to the underground.

Shen Ge and Fang Mingyue took the elevator to the bottom floor. Outside was a long and narrow corridor, and the hatch at the end was locked.

Shen Ge didn't know the password, but once the invisible realm was opened, he could directly use "collapse" to enter. He didn't need a key at all.

The spacious experimental area gave Shen Ge the illusion of returning to the underground experimental base of the Bang Kingdom. He and Fang Mingyue rummaged around the experimental area and found that it was a base for researching human experiments.

In order to speed up the search process, Shen Ge and Fang Mingyue entered the passages on both sides, one on the left and the other on the right. Shen Ge once again used "collapse" to pass through a wall, and after entering the closed secret room, they saw hundreds of operating tables in the secret room. They were all corpses whose human skin had been stripped off, but none of these corpses were intact.

Shen Ge even saw many familiar "weird" limbs, such as rotten flesh, tentacles, various flesh-and-petal heads, etc.

Shen Ge asked Xiao Qi to take pictures of the situation in the laboratory and send them back to the branch together with the experimental report. As for whether the Special Policy Department should use these data to make a fortune or do other business, this kind of zz question will take turns. Shen Ge doesn't have to worry anymore.

On the other side, Fang Mingyue also found a similar laboratory. Holding back the discomfort in her body, she walked to the room at the end, which seemed to be a management office. There were at least hundreds of screens in the room, but they were all dark at this time. With.

Fang Mingyue rummaged around the room and found the lab map and door card, and then found the backup power switch based on the main control room icon shown in the picture.

"Snapped."

Fang Mingyue turned on the backup power supply, and the lights in the experimental area suddenly turned on. When she returned to the office, the surveillance screen on the wall was restored.

Unlike the main control room where Luo Jing and others were located, which mainly monitored scenes in the city, the monitoring room Fang Mingyue found only saw scenes in underground facilities.

However, one of the pictures immediately made Fang Mingyue feel his scalp numb. He saw thousands of parasitized people being imprisoned in the laboratory in the picture.

Because the power supply in the underground experimental area was restored, the sound of various instruments starting up woke up the parasitized people who were still sleeping.

They slapped the explosion-proof glass and walls of the laboratory crazily, and gnawed at each other.

Various mechanical instruments in the laboratory were also activated, peeling off skin, removing bones, and dissecting and dissecting, just like the torture in the eighteenth level of hell, which made people's scalp numb.

After all, Fang Mingyue was not a staff member of the research institute. She only found a way to activate the power switch, but did not have the authority to control those machines or turn on the defense system.

The awakened parasites broke through the blockade of the experimental area and poured into various parts of the institute. Fang Mingyue was blocked in the office area.

She and Shen Ge chose to search the underground experimental area separately, and did not plan to meet up so soon, so after explaining the situation to Shen Ge through the communicator, Fang Mingyue found the administrator's emergency escape passage through the map, and used the passage to enter another experimental area. .

But before she could go far, the parasitized and strange people who poured into the experimental area broke through the office door and chased into the escape tunnel.

Fang Mingyue looked at the parasites jumping down from the escape tunnel like dumplings, and immediately lost the desire to fight and ran forward.

boom!
With a loud noise, the floor of the office was even collapsed by the influx of parasites, and more and more parasites fell into the lower area.

The power supply in the lower area does not seem to be the same as that in the upper level. The power supply in the upper area has been restored, but the lower area is still dark, and the passages are complicated, and there will be forks in the road after running for a distance.

After Fang Mingyue ran forward for a certain distance, there were emergency lights at regular intervals, barely allowing people to see the road under their feet.

Rushing to the end, Fang Mingyue found a locked gate. She doesn't have the means for Shen Ge to pass through walls, so she can only use the simplest method——

blasting.

Once explosives are used, they will definitely attract the surrounding parasites, but Fang Mingyue has no choice. He took out several explosives from his bag and placed them to blow open the gate, and a dark passage appeared in front of him. The left and right sides lead to different places, and directly in front is the staircase going down.

Hearing the swallowing sounds of the monsters behind him, and the distance between the parasites getting closer and closer, Fang Mingyue didn't have time to think too much and chose to continue walking down.

Fang Mingyue turned on the flashlight and walked down the dark stairs. She touched the spider web on the iron railing, and then shined the flashlight on it. The iron handrail was already rusty.

According to the information Luo Jing told Shen Ge, Gerez said that this place had only been abandoned for two or three years. With Sakura's technological level 20 years later, not to mention the underground facilities built to study weird things, it is impossible for such two or three years to happen. It has become derelict to the point where it was built more than ten years ago after not being used for many years.

"Could this be a weird space that messes up time?" Fang Mingyue suddenly thought of this possibility. After all, this is also the most common characteristic of weird spaces.

Fang Mingyue followed the stairs to the bottom. In front of her was a closed iron door. She took a flashlight and scanned around to make sure there were no traps, then she tried to push the door.

With a harsh "creak" sound, the iron door was pushed open.

Fang Mingyue's flashlight scanned the switch on the wall. She walked over and pressed it. There was a soft "pop, pop, pop" sound, and the energy-saving lamps above her head were turned on one after another.

This place looks like a long-abandoned warehouse. The items originally stored here have long been removed, and there are several large iron boxes similar to containers in the corner.

The ceiling was covered with spider webs, and the broken wooden boxes piled in the corners were covered with thick dust. The floor tiles were already somewhat loose, and they made a creaking sound when stepped on, as lifeless as a dark basement. This place seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, and there was a strong smell of moisture in the air.

There were several corpses in the corner of the underground warehouse, but these corpses were already dried and were chewed to pieces, as if they were being eaten by some kind of canine. In addition, there are many body parts scattered in the warehouse, such as hands, feet, half of the body, etc.

The entire warehouse was filled with dampness and corpse odor, which made people sick.

Fang Mingyue looked around and heard a slight friction sound coming from the container in the corner, like the sound of some kind of animal moving.

Fang Mingyue cautiously approached the iron box and saw through the crack in the door that there was a giant centipede covered in blood-red tumors!

Fang Mingyue slowly retreated towards the door, and then slowly closed the iron door. Visually, the centipede was also around level 2-3. She didn't even want to take the risk of using a sly detector to verify it. Since the other party didn't notice her, Then run away quickly.

According to Shen Ge, their purpose here is not to provoke disgusting weirdness, but to find clues related to the twelve branches and information related to this strange disaster.

After all, according to Shen Ge's guess, Tokyo Tower is one of the two areas with the most serious disasters in Tuokou City, and there happens to be an underground research institute here, so there must be some connection between the two.

Shen Ge even felt that whether it was the twelve leaders with four heads and eight arms, or the captains of the fonts who came out to cause trouble from time to time, they might just be a "cover".

The real "Twelve Branches" are actually around us. They may be the special strategy department of the Great Celestial Dynasty, or the anti-conspiracy department of Bangguo, and the anti-conspiracy department of Sakura...

Perhaps the "Twelve Branches" took advantage of the opportunity of the strange appearance to enter the counterattack departments of various countries without anyone noticing.

Otherwise, how can we explain that Seoul of Bangguo, Tuokou City of Sakura, and even Dajing and Rongcheng of Great Celestial Dynasty would all choose to build "research laboratories" like time bombs in their cities.

Dajing City and Tuokou City are good examples. Once the enemy departments are attacked and fell, it will definitely turn into a disaster!
A strange disaster might have broken out in Rong City, but unfortunately the attack of the twelve armies was not strong enough, or maybe they tried hard, but were finally blocked by Shen Ge and Deng Yuqi.

After all, after the first sneak attack on the Rong City branch, Deng Yuqi put a lot of effort into defense. Even if it was infiltrated by twelve branches, it could not touch its roots.

These "accidents" made Shen Ge completely realize that perhaps the "Twelve Branches" they had been chasing did not have a fixed target at all.

Because they may be hiding in the counter-terrorism organizations of various countries!
After Fang Mingyue left the underground warehouse, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in her heart, and a question suddenly occurred to her.

The underground warehouse is closed. There are no entrances or exits except for a few vents sealed with iron bars.

Before she entered, the warehouse door was locked.

How did that giant strange centipede get in?
Could it be that the giant centipede was deliberately kept in the underground warehouse by the researchers here, and then the failed experimental subjects were fed to it as food?

In this way, the underground research institute has a way to dispose of corpses, and can also use it to raise a powerful weirdo for them to study?
Tsk.

really.

Humanity's greatest enemy is always the endless "desire for knowledge."

After Fang Mingyue discovered the secret, she immediately reported the situation to Shen Ge through the communicator. At the same time, Shen Ge also discovered a terrifying experiment plan in Area 1.
