Latent Syndrome

Chapter 14 14. Fighting

In the narrow fire escape, with the spitting of the Scorpion submachine gun, flesh and blood spattered, blood flowed out, and the blazing blue flames surged.

The four members of the SCT had no time to react to the sudden attack. Two of them were shot in the head in the blink of an eye. Although their bodies were still able to move, they were in an unconscious state of near-death rampage and could only attack aimlessly.

According to Eugene, the specially-made ammunition contains a kind of neurotoxin specifically targeted at patients with latent syndrome. It works very quickly and can dissolve the will of the infected person in an instant. It reacts chemically with the infected person's body to produce that kind of neurotoxin. Strange blue flames.

Eugene had finished firing a box of magazines. What she didn't expect was that the remaining two men were extremely vicious. They used the rampaging corpse of their companion as a human shield in front of them, took out their pistols from the flesh and blood bunker and shot at her.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Although it was just an ordinary bullet, it was still lethal. Eugene's shoulder and abdomen were pierced, and blood flowed out gurglingly.

The berserk infected people who were dying also showed visions unique to patients with latent abyss syndrome. Sharp vines and thorns burst out of the palms of their hands and entangled themselves towards her, while green, sticky and corrosive liquid emerged from them. It spreads out from the air, carrying thick acid smoke. If it is touched by this thing, it will definitely corrode bones and flesh instantly.

Colin couldn't just watch Eugene die like this. His Tarot card suggested "the devil", which was a vision manifested by desire and curse. Compared with other visions, although the offensive and defensive properties were both Slightly worse, but the advantage lies in its terrifying recovery ability and mobility.

Click, click, click...

There was a sound of bones deforming and twisting in Colin's left arm. The flesh and blood fell off quickly, and the phalanges and wrist bones were reorganized, turning into a kind of sickle between bone and enamel. It was extremely sharp, and there were still shrinking blood vessels and tendons attached to it. It was extremely terrifying. .

Eugene, who is in a deadlock, needs external support, and Colin has not yet been exposed. At this moment, it is still a surprise attack for the SCT people.

Because he was worried that the bullet would detonate explosives, Colin, who was still a beginner in marksmanship, did not dare to use it, so he had to use a sickle to strike.

Click.

This bone knife was extremely sharp, and it cut through the two dying infected people directly. The red liquid gushed out, and it was extremely bloody. In addition, they had already lost their heads, and they had already suffered a devastating blow.

But the infected person's body is an existence that transcends matter and consciousness. Even if it does not imply "demon", it still has amazing vitality.

Those thorns and vines instead pierced Colin's body, spreading along his skin and spreading all over his body. You can clearly see the weird spikes and protrusions of the branches under his skin, and they are growing crazily. His fat layer was intricately knotted and tangled.

Brutal cramping pain covered Colin's whole body, and the feeling was like rolling in a web of blades.

But he had endured the more painful punishment of burning fire twice, which was not enough.

Colin forced himself forward with his body restrained by thorns. Every step he took, the skin caught by the sharp thorns tore open and burst into blood. The corrosive green acid also flowed onto Colin's body and melted instantly. The flesh and blood revealed the broken bones of the forest.

But Colin still resisted the pressure, and the five fingers of his other hand turned into Bai Sensen's bloodletting knife, forming a claw knife, and grabbed one of the SCT members who was still intact.

Hua Hua Hua...

A large piece of flesh and blood was taken away from the SCT member's shoulder blade, and he screamed in pain.

Finding that the operation had been completely exposed and that the surprise attack team had been completely defeated, Cohen no longer wanted to fight and threw away all the explosives on his body, because his ability would ignite the explosives and he would die together.

Eugene did not expect that Colin seemed to be possessed by the God of War and became extremely brave, which bought her a lot of time. However, Colin's injuries were also terrible, and the battle must be resolved as soon as possible.

"Get out of the way!"

Eugene shouted to Colin, who leaned down and fired again with the Scorpion submachine gun.

Ta-ta-ta...

One of the two people who was still alive was also headshot, with blue fireworks burning in his head.

As for the last remaining person, his eyes were extremely gloomy and half of his face was severely burned. Even in this condition, he was unusually calm. It was Cohen.

Discovering the power of the specially-made ammunition, Cohen immediately used his ability to form a covering airflow field around his body. It was a strange high-pressure hot wind with an extremely hot temperature, which directly caused the entire room to rise by more than ten degrees, getting closer and closer to him. The temperature is higher recently.

When the bullet hit him, it was melted directly before it penetrated the air flow field, unable to hurt him at all.

But Cohen had no desire to fight and turned around and ran away.

Colin was not an idiot showing off his courage. He had already considered what these people would do if they escaped.

On the way over, he had already requested help from the Los Angeles Police Department as an agent of the Countermeasures Bureau. However, the request was not about an explosion. He just said that at two o'clock, there would be a large-scale gang fight near the stock exchange. Be sure to use loud police sirens to intimidate these gang members to cease fire.

Human beings may be like this. When something is big, they will be restrained by various pressures and will not make any progress. If it is a trivial matter, it will be solved in an instant.

At this time, there were police sirens outside the stock exchange. No matter how stupid Cohen was, he would not go down and throw himself into a trap.

"I'll go after him. If you can still hold on, we'll separate!"

Eugene glanced at Colin and found that he still had some energy left, so he pursued the fleeing Cohen without looking back.

"It's really terrible..."

If I were not a patient with latent abyss disease, I would be dead now.

Colin pulled out all the thorns and vines entangled in his body. The intense pain made him breathe in the cold air. The places corroded by the green liquid were extremely difficult to heal, and there was still pain that continued to dissolve.

He now looks like a living dead, and his clothes are in tatters. Although he can move, it doesn't mean that his injuries are not serious. He probably lost half his life.

As time passed, these infected people who were on the verge of death stopped moving and died completely.

Colin didn't dare to delay the opportunity. He tried to use time retrieval as much as possible. He had done a good job this time, and there were no casualties except the scum of SCT.

After he calmed down for more than twenty seconds, he shot the still shaking corpse of an SCT member and chased him out.

When Colin arrived at the hollow lobby, the place was already in chaos. Because of Eugene's warning shot, the crowd was commotion, and the security personnel maintained the evacuation of the crowd to prevent a stampede.

Due to the hollow design, Colin's eyes could see all the movements in the area from the 1st to the 36th floor. After watching for a while, he could not find any trace of Eugene and Cohen.

With the sirens blaring loudly outside, Cohen would definitely think that he was surrounded by the countermeasures bureau and would not run out, but would only go upstairs.

at this time.

A flash of lightning flashed in Colin's mind. He had considered everything, but he had not considered this issue, which was what Cohen would do if he was forced into a desperate situation.

"Hold."

Colin was a little irritated and quickly pressed the elevator button. Although this was a useless effort and would not make the elevator faster, Colin still patted hard.

If innocent people die because of your own strategy, even if you successfully prevent the bombing, your intervention may sacrifice people who would not otherwise be sacrificed. Is this a good result?

Do you want to do it all over again?

Suddenly Colin was in this predicament. If he could, he didn't want to go back in time. He would be weaker every time. If he came again, he might not be able to do as well as this time in a weak state, and he might even be exposed to SCT. Crazy counterattack.

How to choose between the lives of ordinary people, the lives of many people, and the economic bomb?

Ding.

The elevator door opens.

But there was no room for him to hesitate, so Colin stepped in.
