"Are there any members of Project 101 here? Did you see Zhao Feixuan or Professor Lu Tianxing? " Meng Chao did not have time to explain, so he went straight to the point.
Meng Chao had participated in many of Blue Home's activities, so quite a number of people knew him.
He immediately stated his identity. They were indeed members of Blue Home who came to participate in the transmigration conference.
The good news was that Meng Chao had warned them in time. Most of the Project 101 transmigration experts had fled to the rooftop ahead of time.
At that time, there were not many monsters in the building, so they should have been able to reach the rooftop safely.
These people were the strongest in the conference or those who had served in the military. They volunteered to stay behind and fight for time for the transmigration experts to escape.
For the time being, Project 101 had not been completely wiped out.
This made Meng Chao sigh in relief.
But the next piece of bad news almost froze his heart.
"Professor Lu was captured by monsters," one of the survivors said in resignation.
"At that time, we were escorting Professor Lu and the other transmigration experts up the stairs. There were a lot of monsters chasing after us, and we only focused on firing at them. We didn't pay attention to the elevators in the corridor.
"In the end, when Professor Lu passed by an elevator, the elevator door suddenly tore open, and dozens of Giant Praying Mantises, spiders, and centipedes crawled out.
"Even though we managed to get rid of most of the monsters in time, Professor Lu was bound by them.
"Professor Lu was bound by the other party's mucus and spider silk and dragged down the elevator shaft.
"We used flares to test it. The elevator shaft is really deep. It's much deeper than the normal height of Noble Descent Hotel. The enemy must have found the elevator shaft accurately under the hotel and dug a hole.
"We don't know what's going on underground, and we have to protect the remaining experts. Besides, our fighting strength is a little lacking. The real elites have all gone to provide reinforcements to the south of the city. So, no one dared to go underground alone, except for Zhao Feixuan.
"At the moment the monster bound Professor Lu, he pounced on it and tried to cut the monster's spider silk.
"In the end, he crashed into the elevator shaft with a monster and fell into the depths of the shaft before Professor Lu. Now, we don't know if he's dead or alive! “
This was the worst news.
At certain times, an incredibly intelligent expert could be of irreplaceable use and instantly push a certain technology forward by decades.
On the other hand, if the expert unfortunately passed away, the technology would stagnate for decades until the next genius appeared. This was also a very common thing in the field of cutting-edge technology.
And Dragon City could not afford to wait for decades.
"Could it be that, just like in my previous life, the transmigration technology is going to end in vain? “
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and cooled down his burning mind.
Things are not irreparably bad.
The monster did not immediately kill Professor Lu Tianxing. Instead, it captured him. Why?
'That's right. Since Professor Lu is the best transmigration expert and the person in charge of Project 101, his brain must contain unfathomable wisdom and countless secrets from the ancient ruins in the depths of the Supernatural Tower.
If he were an exotic beast, he wouldn't kill him so easily even if he had the rare opportunity to do so.
This was too much of a waste.
Capture Professor Lu, invade his brain, and steal or interrogate him for the secrets of transmigration technology and the Primordial Ruins.
They even used biochemical technology to modify his brain, squeezing out every last drop of Professor Lu's intelligence.
Only then would they be able to recoup all the capital they invested in this battle and even earn a lot of money.
The survivors told Meng Chao that this happened five to ten minutes ago.
Right now, Professor Lu should still be underground near Noble Descent Hotel.
Since Meng Chao and Lu Siya had used their connections to send news to the outside world in time, more powerful fighters and armies were on their way. The surveillance of the underground had also increased, so it would not be easy for them to transport Professor Lu out without anyone noticing.
Before dawn, they still had a chance to save Professor Lu.
"Listen, a large group of monsters is about to revive. We have to leave this place and go to the roof!" “
Professor Lu might be important.
He could not ignore the other transmigration experts from Project 101 who were on the roof.
Otherwise, if they managed to save Professor Lu after so much trouble, he might end up as a lone general, and the transmigration technology might go down the drain.
With this thought in mind, Meng Chao gave an order.
There were more than ten survivors in the armory. Usually, they might be knowledgeable experts, rich people, or veteran hunters who had fought in hundreds of battles.
But now, they obeyed Meng Chao's orders.
They quickly packed up the remaining guns and ammunition in the armory and were about to run out when a series of slurping sounds came from the end of the corridor.
It was followed by piercing screeches and low growls.
Deformed and twisted figures appeared under the red light of the emergency lights.
They bared their fangs, and they looked like the silhouettes of monsters from hell.
They were zombies and the undead.
The undead in the lead was the Sewn Monster Meng Chao had seen before. It was formed by eight large insect carcasses.
At that moment, the dozens of eyes on its body shone with a red light. They stared at Meng Chao.
Meng Chao felt as if his brain had been pierced by the Sewn Monster's gaze, and his mental strength index plummeted.
He also sensed that the brainwaves of the people behind him had become chaotic.
Clearly, their fear was contagious, and they had turned into fear bombs.
"Relax, it's just a bunch of zombies. If we can kill them once, we can kill them twice, thrice, and countless times!"
Meng Chao's shout made the people calm down.
When they remembered that the transmigration experts had been safely sent to the roof, they calmed down a little, and an indomitable killing intent shone in their eyes.
That's right. If they could kill them once, they could kill them twice and countless times.
At most, they would end up dying together with the monsters, just like the countless pioneers who had dyed Dragon City red in blood over the past half a century.
When the courage of humans resonated …
The fear bombs were destroyed on their own.
Everyone's mental strength indices returned to normal.
"Are there any other exits here?" Meng Chao asked.
There really was one.
The armory was on the fifth floor of Noble Descent Hotel.
It was very close to the roof.
Just like many other buildings, there was an anti-air base on the roof of the hotel. There were around thirty anti-aircraft cannons and anti-aircraft machine guns there to fend against flying monsters like the Demonic Air Ripping Eyes.
The armory was in charge of storing and delivering ammunition to the anti-air base.
There was also a small maintenance room next to it. Usually, the maintenance of guns and the replacement of gun barrels were done there.
Hence, there was a unique delivery tunnel between the armory and the anti-air base.
The survivors had already investigated it. Even though the tunnel was very narrow, it could allow one or two humans to climb up at the same time.
They had originally wanted to go up to the roof through the tunnel.
But they were controlled by the Brain-rotting Insects, and they were immersed in a meaningless slaughter. They wasted too much time.
"Close the door and head to the roof!"
When Meng Chao saw that more undead had formed a tide of death and were charging over from the end of the corridor, he made a prompt decision.
The door of the armory was made of alloy and was at least twenty centimeters thick. It was comparable to the high-grade crystal safety deposit boxes in banks.
Since it was too heavy, there was a sliding track at the bottom. The door could be opened and closed with the help of gears.
Two of the survivors pounced on the handles and used all their strength to spin.
The remaining survivors fired at the corridor. More than ten lines of fire sealed off the entire corridor, and the Stitched Monster in the lead was instantly shot full of holes.
Unfortunately, the undead's life form was completely different from normal monsters.
To put it in simpler terms, they were like the amalgamation of fungi and microorganisms. They just used the corpses of living creatures as their armor and weapons.
Even if their "armor" and "weapons" were damaged, they wouldn't be completely doomed.
Slurp, slurp, slurp.
A large amount of thin and long red threads gushed out of the Stitched Monster's wounds, and soon, the wounds were sealed.
Perhaps it was because too many of its limbs had been destroyed by the bullets, but it even swung its mandibles and casually pierced a small undead beside it. It pressed the pitiful creature against its wound.
A large amount of thin and long red threads gushed out of the wound, and the small undead were actually "stitched" to its body.
This scene made everyone's skin crawl.
And as they continued firing, the barrel overheated, and the problem of not having enough ammunition was exposed.
The lines of fire became sparser.
By the looks of it, they would not be able to hold back the undead for long.
An ear-piercing squeak came from underneath the slowly closing door.
No matter how the two survivors shook the handle, the door did not budge.
"The door is stuck!"
The two of them lay down and examined it for a while before they cried out in despair.
When they entered the armory, they had engaged in a small-scale exchange of fire with the monsters.
Aside from the Brain-rotting Insects hiding in the dark, quite a number of monsters had been torn to shreds by their bullets. Their broken limbs were strewn all over the ground.
One of the Golden Scythe's carcasses had fallen outside the door.
And its sturdy mandibles were stuck on the slide under the door.
Because its carcass was outside the armory.
They could only see a small part of its mandibles, so it was very difficult to get it out.
But now, it was impossible for them to run outside and clear the carcass of the Golden Scythe in front of the undead that filled the corridor.
This caused the survivors to be in a very awkward situation.
Since the door was already half closed, there was at most one meter left.
In other words, the shooting range left for them was only one meter. It was practically impossible for them to use all their firepower.
With their firepower reduced by half, the undead, who were not afraid of bullets to begin with, naturally pushed forward. They were about to reach them and jump into the armory to engage in a brutal melee.
If humans had a certain chance of winning against monsters in a melee fight, they would definitely suffer losses.
Fighting against undead creatures was a business that would only result in losses. Even if he won, there was a high possibility that he would be infected by the virus and the Blood Flower, turning into a new undead creature.
Just when the survivors sank into despair …
"Excuse me, please make way."
They heard a calm voice coming from behind them.
When they turned their heads around, they saw Meng Chao.
There was also a Type 45 Heavy Double Barreled Anti-Aircraft Machine Gun that weighed 225 kilograms and had a firing rate of 1,200 rounds per second. It could fire 19.5mm tungsten core shell shelling bullets, armor-piercing bullets, incendiary bullets, and crystal bullets. The bullets were thicker than drumsticks and the barrel was thicker than an arm. It could completely tear apart a Demonic Air Ripping Eye in three seconds.
