<h4>Chapter 369: Alert Triggered</h4>


    “What’s the situation in the passage?”


    Su Jincheng was also nervous. He walked to Parason and asked.


    “It’s not bad.”


    Parason had just taken a breath and was about to say something.


    The next second, the entire shelter sounded an rm.


    “Alert! Alert!”


    “Unknown lifeform has been detected!”


    “Alert! Alert!”


    Su Jincheng’s already tense nerves were triggered again. He asked loudly, “What’s the situation?”


    “It’s an alert from the sixth basement. An unauthorized creature has been detected!”


    A research personnel lowered his head to control the main control system. He was sweating profusely.


    “Unauthorized creature? What’s that?”


    “I’m not sure, I’m still checking...”


    “It’s the Licker Invasion.”


    Fang Heng interrupted the conversation between the two and conveniently controlled the main control console. He switched the screen projection to a monitor on the sixth basement.


    “Dong! Dong Dong!!”


    On the screen, the venttion duct’s was forcefully pushed open by the Lickers.


    Two Lickers crawled out from the venttion duct and quickly climbed along the wall.


    In the corridor, two members of the Night Owl organization realized the zombie invasion and immediately pulled out their guns and fired.


    “Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang!!”


    The passage was narrow and the Lickers were immediately hit by a few bullets.


    However, the bullets didn’t stop the Lickers. They continued to move along the ceiling at an extremely fast speed and passed over the two yers of the Night Owl organization.


    “Not good! They’re heading towards the central research room!”


    Fang Heng once again switched to the surveince screen, positioning the screen outside the research room in the sixth basement.


    The four Night Owl organization yers were ready for battle. They held their automatic rifles tightly in their hands and faced the corner of the passage.


    “Shoosh!”


    Two red shadows shed past the corner.


    “Bang Bang Bang!!! Bang Bang! Bang Bang!”


    The four yers pulled the trigger almost at the same time.


    The Lickers kept changing its angle and flew along the wall towards the Night Owl yer.


    “They’reing!”


    A shbang was thrown out of the yer’s hand.


    “Pa!”


    A strong light shed.


    “Weng...”


    The ultra-high frequency sound wave emitted by the shbang was a great restraint on the Lickers.


    Affected by the sound wave, the two Lickers lost their sense of direction and fell from the air.


    “Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”


    Following that, the bulletsnded on the two Lickers.


    Su Jincheng stared at the screen.


    The Lickers on the screen looked very familiar.


    He thought of the group of Lickers he saw outside the Federation’s shelterst night.


    Vaguely, Su Jincheng noticed a red light appearing under the Lickers’ skin.


    “Oh no!”


    Su Jincheng suddenly shouted, “Run!!!”


    “Boom!!!”


    He was still one step toote. The two Lickers’ bodies exploded in the passage.


    Red blood sshed out in all directions.


    The four yers were still quite far away. Two of them were unlucky, but the blood sshed on the silver mask.


    Almost instantly, the thinyer of the silver mask was dissolved by the blood!


    The blood stained the skin.


    “Ah!!”


    The two yers immediately cried out in pain and subconsciously reached out to touch the silver mask.


    The blood had dissolved arge part of their faces.


    When their hands touched it, it was instantly a bloody mess!


    “F*ck! Don’t move! Don’t touch the wound!”


    The other two yers were also shocked by the horrifying scene. They immediately took out the first aid spray, grabbed the struggling victims and sprayed wildly at the wounds.


    Affected by the explosion, arge part of the passage was corroded by the Lickers’ blood.


    In front of the monitor screen, the yers looked serious.


    “The Lickers with the self-destruct ability is the same batch that we sawst night.”


    Sikong Mao was not here and Su Jincheng knew that he could not control the situation in front of him.


    He forced himself to remain calm. He looked at Parason and asked, “Are they from the Federation?”


    “I don’t know. The Federation isn’t that fast, right? And aren’t they still dealing with the vampires outside? It doesn’t make sense that they’ve already broken into the shelter...”


    “Then where did theye from?”


    “How do I know... Have you contacted Sikong Mao?”


    “I’ve already contacted him. Due to the signal, I haven’t received a reply yet.”


    “Then what should we do?”


    Parason was very nervous. He was both shocked and afraid.


    Fortunately, the two Lickers did note towards the central stabilizer. Otherwise, once they self-destructed, the entire passage stabilizer would be paralyzed and the time passage would be destroyed!


    Fang Heng pursed his lips and switched the big screen projection to the venttion duct’s exit.


    “Both of you, now is not the time to argue. I don’t think we should sit and wait for death. From the current situation, the Lickers entered the shelter through the venttion duct as an entrance.”


    Fang Heng encouraged him at the right time, “There are no internal surveince cameras in theboratory on the sixth basement. Should we go there and check? It would be better to seal the venttion duct’s exit as well.”


    “And those wounded...”


    After Fang Heng’s reminder, Su Jincheng and Parason couldn’t help but look at each other.


    That’s right!


    The sixth basement!


    That was the secret research room that Sikong Mao had specially set up. It was also part of this n.


    There must be no mistakes!


    ....


    Su Jincheng gathered all his men and left a portion of the Night Owl yers to guard the time passage. He brought another group of yers and rushed to the sixth basement to provide support.


    In the passage opening on the sixth basement, a few Night Owl yers were guarding below the entrance of the venttion duct that had been broken open. They aimed their muzzles at the opening of the venttion duct and were on guard against Lickers who could jump out of the passage at any time.


    “Have you checked them all?”


    “I’ve roughly checked them, but the venttion duct is very deep. I don’t know where the Lickers invaded from.”


    One Night Owl yer was still frightened. He shrunk his neck and carefully exined, “We can’t climb into the venttion duct and thoroughly check it.”


    Fang Heng followed Su Jincheng and the other yers and raised his head to look at the venttion duct entrance above.


    It was dark inside the entrance.


    The space inside the venttion duct was narrow. It was troublesome for an ordinary person to turn around. If they met a Licker, they would be courting death.


    Su Jincheng also realized the problem and frowned.


    “Think of a way to seal it first. Seal the other venttion duct openings as well.”


    “Yes!”


    Fang Heng curled his lips and asked, “What’s the situation in theboratory? Is there a venttion duct opening inside?”


    “This, the security level in theboratory is even higher. We don’t know.”


    Su Jincheng’s heart tightened again when he heard that.


    “Let’s go! Bring me to take a look!”


    Su Jincheng brought everyone to theboratory’s door and verified their identities before opening the metal door.


    Everything in theboratory was safe and sound.


    More than ten researchers raised their heads at the same time and looked at the people outside the door.


    Seeing the scene in theboratory, Fang Heng’s pupils suddenly constricted.


    This...


    Cultivation pods?!


    More than half of the entire sixth basementboratory was upied byrge cultivation pods.


    Many researchers were doing data calctions around the cultivation pods.


    Fang Heng had a rough look and there were at least 40 of them.


    More importantly, Fang Heng found that these cultivation pods were extremely familiar!
