In the channel of the junction.

Thirty-two people, including Hicks, Hudson, and Yulia, decided to go to the laboratory of Hozette Enterprise under City No. 7 after hearing the piercing alarm and repeated emergency notifications.

The pedestrian still turned on the optical camouflage function and ran towards the civilian rail train station.

On the way forward, everyone did not find any soldiers from the UNSC Army or the Hozett Enterprise.

"Flap! Flap!"

"what…"

He heard gunfire and screams from a distance.

Hearing such a movement, the group of people immediately noticed that this sudden incident may be much more serious than they thought.

Hicks behind the helmet, glanced at the thumbnail in the upper left corner, and followed the planned route to the station.

But soon, a large number of yellow cursors flashed on the thumbnail, which means that there are a large number of'people' or'things' in the front site.

"Stop." Upon seeing this, Hicks immediately stopped the running team.

And here is a dedicated passage for employees, only need to pass the front left corner to directly reach the platform on the east side of the site.

"Walk forward, there may be abnormal creatures ahead."

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel."

After hearing Hicks' order, everyone slowed down, relying on the stealth strength of the RPA power armor, and came to the passageway through the corner almost silently.

!!!

Only after seeing the scene on the site, everyone was shocked.

At this moment they just saw a group of aliens surrounding the isolation gate, yelling at each other as if discussing countermeasures, and then dismembered a smaller alien.

What surprised Hicks and the others was that this group of aliens actually used the corpses and blood of their companions to corrode the isolation gate through a gap.

"Fuck..."

Hudson, who was half squatting beside Hicks, couldn't help but whispered on the internal communication of the helmet after seeing such a scene, sighed:

"These creatures that look like beasts even know how to work in a team?"

"A cruel teamwork." Hicks said solemnly: "Their blood is still acidic and extremely corrosive. Even the gate made of this compound alloy can easily corrode."

"hiss!!"

While a group of people was observing the group of aliens in secret, dozens of aliens spewed out from the stairs on both sides of the platform, rushing towards the gap in the isolation gate.

Because Hicks and others were still in the passage, coupled with the excellent stealth of the RPA power armor, this was not discovered by the aliens who were on a mission.

Soon, most of the dozens of aliens that appeared later passed the gap, but they still left two aliens waiting here, as if they were preventing survivors from escaping to City No. 6 through this gap.

"Lieutenant Colonel." Yulia looked at the two aliens standing in front of the gate and asked Hicks: "What should I do? Are you going to kill these two aliens?"

"Wait." Hicks said quietly:

"These anomalous creatures seem to have advanced intelligence. I wonder if they can find us with optical camouflage."

With that, Hicks ordered Hudson: "Hudson, you go out first, and be careful not to make any noise."

"Ah...Why me?" Hudson complained slightly.

"Don't talk nonsense, go," Hicks said.

"Hey... OK."

Hudson didn't complain anymore, but stood up, held the Gauss rifle in his hand, and slowly left the passage to the platform on the east side.

"hiss!!!"

When Hudson came to the center of the platform, the two aliens immediately howled at Hudson and were about to start attacking him.

"Grass! These beasts can see!"

After seeing the alien launching an attack, everyone including Hudson pulled the trigger to pour the two special spike bullets.

"Puff puff!"

"Papa! Papa!"

With a special suppressor, the Gaussian gun fired with extremely low noise, and immediately exploded the two alien shapes.

"Hey...!"

The sprayed green strong acid blood began to corrode the surrounding railroad tracks and the ground.

"Hui~" Hudson walked slowly along the edge of the platform, looked at the smoky rails and the ground, whistled and sighed:

"The bodies of these beasts are so fragile, they collapse in one hit."

"..." Hicks also came to Hudson's side, looked at the two alien bodies, and guessed:

"I feel their body structure, it seems that when they are injured to a certain degree, their bodies will explode, spraying the strong acid blood in their bodies for one-sided killing."

"It feels like they are perfect killing'machines'." Yulia interrupted.

"Moreover, their perception ability is very strong. Even the most advanced optical camouflage function can be discovered by them once they get close." Hicks said in a deep voice.

"Okay buddy." Hudson replaced a new magazine and said to Hicks:

"The work of analyzing these biological characteristics is left to the nerds (researchers) of the company. I think it is time for us to move on."

"Hudson is right." Hicks nodded lightly, led everyone to the stairs, and ordered:

"According to the information, the underground laboratory was built directly under the Hozett Enterprise Building in City 7. Since there is no information about the underground passage from the other party, we have to go to the Hozett Building on the surface.

But if we find that there are surviving citizens on the way forward, the task will be changed to protect the lives of citizens as the priority, and wait for the arrival of the Amber.

Did you hear it all?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!"

"Very good, let's go!"

Following commands and responses, thirty-two people walked quickly through the stairs to the security checkpoint on the upper floor of the site.

And the movement when they ran, also let the few aliens who stayed behind at the security checkpoint found out, and then...

"Puff! Puff!"

"hiss!!"

"Papa! Papa!"

Immediately afterwards, everyone stood in fan-shaped positions and began to shoot accurately towards the aliens who were guarding here.

Thirty-two people are all lieutenant-level officers and agents with rich experience. Coupled with the shooting calibration of the RPA power armor, only one round of salvo will solve the few aliens left here.

However, everyone under the helmet looked more solemn, because after this battle, they also found that these aliens were extremely agile and agile.

If you encounter dozens or hundreds of'alien army', then their Umbrella elite can not withstand the impact of the alien.

"Keep going, the task is changed to find the surviving citizens and contact the UNSC who stayed here."

"Yes."

After hearing Hicks' order, the group still acted to the surface without hesitation, and Hicks also cancelled the mission to the Hozette underground laboratory.

After all, the underground laboratory must be the central location of this incident, and the number of aliens there cannot be estimated. Sending them to investigate is undoubtedly an act of death.

Therefore, it is better to save the citizens as much as possible, wait for the arrival of the Amber, and then contact Umbrella's fleet through the Amber to request more support from the troops.
