Chapter 747: Dog gene
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Still, piranhas were only fatal to ordinary humans and creatures. It wasn't impossible for Zi and the contestants to defeat Hammond's snare, but doing so may cause a commotion and expose themselves; getting picked up by surveillance and inadvertently alarming the snake.
At this moment, Sheyan bluntly slashed himself and allowed his blood to stream out. The aroma of his blood quickly allured the majority of the piranhas, as they besieged him vehemently in the water. Nevertheless, his innate 'Stronghold' allowed him to withstand them comfortably.
Proceeding from there and after an arduous test, the gang of four arrived before the entrance of the secret lab. What greeted them was a pair of enormous sliding doors that were as solid as underground bunkers. Furthermore, the doors were concealed seamlessly, where the contestant quartet only discovered it after an excruciating round of inspection.
Clearly, the steel doors were a countermeasure not to humans, but colossal grand-tier dinosaurs at the apex of the food chain. Only such fortified doors could resist their monumental might. Hammond,as the father of dinosaurs, ought to have a clear picture on the degree of evolution of the dinosaurs on Isla Nublar.
Fortunately, not too long later, the sealed doors rumbled slightly before sliding to both sides respectively. A roaring truck drove through as its exhaust spat out regiments of black fumes.
Even the individuals hidden by the side could feel a throbbing sensation in their hearts from the roaring truck.
The truck halted on the main road ahead.
An old man clad in a white coat spoke out.
"Lads, remember to activate the 'Sonic Drive' manufactured by the doc', lest even your bones be eaten by those giant lizards."
"Run along, Old Harry, the lord summons you." The truck driver returned a mocking scoff.
Old Harry frowned and replied with a serious expression.
"The headquarters are starting to suspect. After this latest batch of materials are delivered here, you guys may have to idle for a period. Don't worry, after we capture some eggs or young dinosaurs and deliver em', those brats with money in their eyes will trust the doc' once again; even farfetched lies will sound like truth!"
As fast as lightning, the truck soon vanished into the darkness.
While strolling through the doors, Old Harry raised his remote control, pointed to those enormous doors, and pressed a button. The doors slowly slid in as Old Harry slowly strolled into the building.
Yet in this instant, four drenched figures abruptly scurried out from the tiny river, and hastily pounced onto Old Harry.
Sheyan, in particular, directly activated 'Horn-Rage' and stampeded towards Old Harry; successfully infiltrating the building before the doors shut and knocking the old man onto the ground.
In a fit of furious astonishment, the old man attempted to scream. Instead, Sheyan quickly covered his mouth and callously admonished.
"Scream and you're dead."
Sheyan then seized the old man's neck but didn't expect the old man to be so relentless. The old man immediately screamed out when he noticed a chance.
"Invaders!!!!"
Following his ludicrous scream, a shrilling siren shattered the calm of the base.
Sheyan's eyes then flashed with iron ruthlessness; he exerted strength and following a 'kacha', he snapped the old man's neck.
The old man's chicken-like scream ceased abruptly after his neck snapped.Sadly, his death failed to prevent the various defense systems from activating.
Three automatic rifles lodged on the wall instantly targeted over and unleashed a sequence of long fiery tongues; spraying out bullets incessantly.
However, along this broad entrance, there wasn't a single visible cover at all! This prompted Zi and Mogensha to quickly dive behind Reef's shield and back.
After killing off Old Harry, Sheyan realized he could pick up the remote control used for manipulating those enormous doors. He quickly snatched it and exclaimed.
"I can control the doors, retreat or proceed?"
Zi instantly replied.
"Charge! I'll cover you. The longer we drag on, the more preparations our enemy can afford."
Sheyan inhaled deeply and stored the remote control. He then heaved up Old Harry's corpse, and charged forward while burying his head behind the corpse. His charging posture was like a wild crazy beast, even a range of mountain would shudder and retreat.
Even so, the damage dealt by those automatic defense rifles was exceedingly devastating. Even Sheyan couldn't hold on with his outstanding defense as his HP plunged down like a torrent. Indeed, it seemed like the difficulty of this secret lab could only be confronted by an Awakener.
While the firepower was concentrated onto the tanking Sheyan, Zi and Brother Black retaliated simultaneously.
A 'Force Collision Wall' soon compressed in and struck an automatic rifle slanting 70 degrees away. The rifle's support became warped upon impact as its maneuvering gear jammed up, forcing it to aim constantly at one direction.
As for Mogensha, a shuttle of bullets struck explosively onto another automatic rifle, resulting in certain damages to the system. After firing for 5-6 seconds, the automatic rifle emitted a jamming 'ka ka ka' sound as its shooting speed was substantially reduced.
Following that, with a deep breath, Sheyan leaped up like a fish behind the last automatic rifle.
Crack! Cha! He grabbed the maneuvering gear of the rifle, twisted it and forcibly tore it out from the wall; sending fragments of cement dispersing everywhere.
Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu! The three deadly automatic rifles were now spraying bullets out randomly, no longer capable of posing a threat to their foes.
Knowing that time was extremely precious, the contestants hastily healed up and charged into the cave. However, the distance was still relatively far and after dashing for 20 plus metres, Brother Black exclaimed abruptly.
"Careful!"
DA! DA! DA! He then unloaded a clip of bullets into the darkness.
A fleeing human was instantly struck flying by the burst fire, as turbid blood splattered like rain in mid-air before he landed 7-8 metres away. After rolling several rounds, that human's body resembled a sieve with blood congregating into puddles around him.
This human was about to sprint into a nearby right channel but failed to evade Brother Black's eagle eyes. Before his miserable death, though he got shot so many times, he still managed to retain a final breath and maliciously swore.
"You, you, and you will all die! All, of you will die!!!"
The gang of four ignored him and continued running through the main cave passageway.
However, they soon slowed at a bend. The entire cavern passageway was extremely spacious and the most noticeable sight here, was two garages specially created to house those large trucks.
After making the bend, the entire cavern passage narrowed to as small as three metres high and five metres wide, but was still sufficient for two trucks to travel side-by-side. This narrow passageway stretched to a full 50 metres and was considerably straight.
After their experience in Sando Company, the gang didn't dare to act recklessly. After all, the lesson from that laser channel still resonated in their minds. Perhaps if this was a covert infiltration, they could take the risk. Yet right now, their enemies were clearly vigilant.
Yet in this instant, a furious roar resounded from the channel.
"Kill them!"
That furious roar sounded a little hoarse and brutal. Closely after, they could observe over ten marine-looking combatants standing at the opposite edge of the passageway. Along with them, were unexpectedly six german shepherds.
Reacting to the roar, the leashed german shepherds were set free. They released angry barks and stampeded in with astonishingly fast speeds.
As for the ten plus combatants, they tailed their dogs and opened fire from behind.
"We cannot tarry for too long here." Sheyan earnestly urged Mogensha. "We must end this battle fast!"
Mogensha nodded.
"I got it boss, but my 'Sparta Long Spear' only has a hurling range of 30 metres"
Sheyan nodded and replied.
"Kill the dogs first. Reef will escort you to 30 metres proximity. Let's see after charging through this channel first!"
Instantaneously, gunfire, rumbles, mini-explosions and furious barks filled the cavern passage.
After arduously managing to kill one, Sheyan realized the few german shepherds possessed incredibly astounding life force. He also noticed their canine fangs protruded out from their lips, while their muscles were exceedingly robust. Moreover, the blood oozing from their bodies was red and shockingly wouldn't solidify even on the ice-cold cavern ground. Instead, steam spiralled out the blood which indicated their heated temperature.
In a flash, Reef escorted Brother Black to the 30 metres mark.
Mogensha hastily tore forward and hurled his 'Sparta Long Spear' with utmost ferocity.
Instantly, a blinding silver chain lightning streaked in and bounced amongst the frenzied combatants. Their own weapons exploded as flames erupted and plundered their bodies, while emitting crackling charred sounds.
In a blink of an eye, they were all eliminated!
The feebleness of those armed guards surpassed the contestants' expectations. Brother Black exclaimed with surprise.
"Eh? Those guys can't even put up a fight, but offer such amazing rewards?"
As he spoke, he shared his combat log to the rest.
[ You killed a genetically-modified dog feeder: Receive 500 utility points ]
[ You killed a genetically-modified dog trainer: Receive 500 utility points ]
[ You killed a genetically-modified dog watchguard: Receive 500 utility points ]
"...."
Viewing the combat log, Sheyan quivered and immediately exclaimed.
"Shit!! Watch out for those german shepherds!"
