Why it never ends

Chapter 991 Rescue

Tonight is the celebration of the old Independence Day, and whoever is behind this conspiracy clearly intends to cause casualties among the civilian population.

Victoria entered two extremely complex passwords into her mobile phone, and a bright red touch area soon appeared on the screen.

After experiencing many chelate tide missions, she was given the authority to warn of extremely dangerous situations. If she pressed the confirmation button at this moment, the mercury needle in the mother city would come immediately - after all, when danger is approaching, the farther the battlefield is from the mother city, the safer the mother city will be.

  But... maybe this is the purpose?

In the silence, the sensor lights in the corridor dimmed, and Victoria's face was illuminated by the red light of the screen.

Suddenly, Susie's call came in.

"Victoria—"

"Any response from the Cauchy workstation?"

"No, I just came out of the Cauchy workstation, and their staff on duty told me that all the speed measuring devices in Emmanlia have been dismantled. We can only identify them with the naked eye, and we can't use the method of monitoring ultra-high-speed moving objects to confirm the location and quantity of chelates, but the speed measuring devices outside the city are still intact. In addition, I also-"

"Victoria!" Zoe's voice also cut in, "Rico replied to my message, they will be here soon."

"Okay - Suzy, go on."

"—I also found a whole box of unopened pheromones! Want to use them?"

Victoria looked back one last time at the dead body behind her.

“…Try it!” She opened the door of the stairwell and left as quickly as possible. “Take the pheromones with you to the upwind location and smash them together at least five kilometers away from the city.”

"it is good."

In the night, Victoria quickly climbed up the clock tower to the highest point. She jumped between buildings, from King's Central Avenue to Seventh Street, and then jumped back to Third Street - every street was crowded with people. Especially the King's Statue Square on Central Avenue, there was almost no open space there, and the crowds swayed gently in the wind, like dense seaweed on the seabed.

This scene gave Victoria a headache. She had experienced a misinformation about chelation disease in the 9th district. At that time, it was also a crowded square. After receiving the alarm from the mercury needle that "the drinking water in the activity square was suspected to be contaminated by chelating bacteria", the police began to evacuate the crowd. As a result, they clashed with several young people on the street as soon as they arrived.

The two sides got into a fight after a disagreement, and one of them tried to grab the police baton, so the police chose to shoot. The gunshots caused panic, and the panicked people quickly spread rumors that "drinking water was contaminated by chelated bacteria" into "chelates are killing people", so in an instant, the crowd in the entire square began to disintegrate and flee...

Afterwards, AHgAs found that there was no pollution problem with the drinking water in the square, but nearly three hundred people died in the stampede that night.

At this moment, Victoria suddenly missed Si Lei. If Si Lei was here, she would probably only need to say "The task of evacuating the crowd is up to you" and not have to worry about anything else.

The wind blew from afar, and Victoria smelled the scent of pheromones.

Suzy had already smashed the entire box of pheromones upwind of the city.

This compound, which simulates the smell of mercury needles after they first awaken, is difficult for ordinary chelates to smell, but it is very attractive to extremely dangerous chelates such as deformed ones. Normally, when the latter smell this smell, they will rush to the source of the smell regardless of everything.

However, Victoria waited for more than twenty seconds and did not see any suspicious shadows on the ground or in the air.

  What's going on... Is it possible that among the chelates that infiltrated Emanlia tonight, there are no high-risk species such as the Deformers?

On the other side, Theresa and Ende in the theater continued to send good news: as a large number of audiences evacuated in an orderly manner, the chelates hidden in the theater continued to appear, trying to prevent the crowd from leaving and launching attacks.

However, every battle between the mercury needles ended quickly and cleanly. After the close combat, Ende and Theresa realized that the physical fitness of these chelates was very ordinary before they died, just ordinary people who had never received strength or combat training. Therefore, even though their speed and strength were greatly improved after the onset of the disease, they had no advantage in a head-on battle with the mercury needles who had undergone rigorous training.

So far, no one has been killed in the attack. The only injured child was a child who broke his knee when he fell down because he was a little anxious while escaping with his mother.

"How's it outside the theater?" Ende asked.

"Everything is calm," Victoria replied. "No suspicious signs have been found so far."

"Okay!" Ende said confidently, "It's just as you said. All these chelates are huddled in the theater, not even one of them is running out!"

Victoria did not feel relaxed at all. She only felt that the calmness before her was showing a kind of weird trap.

"Where are you now?" Victoria looked in the direction of the theater. "I see the lobby and the main entrance are empty."

"We are all in the underground parking lot." Ende said, "Most people came here by car, and some viewers who came from the bus or subway are looking for carpooling. We try to let everyone leave from the same exit, which makes it easier for us to watch over them!"

Victoria turned over and jumped to the other side of the bell tower - the exit of the underground garage of the theater. A string of closely connected vehicles was slowly merging into the longitudinal main road that had not yet been affected by the parade. Once the vehicles were on the road, they quickly disappeared into the night.

"Okay, be careful," Victoria said, "Let's do this first--"

Victoria's voice suddenly stopped. A sudden sense of oppression made her dodge quickly. A row of bullets pierced the stone brick wall where she had just stood. Victoria quickly looked back and saw something diagonally below her disappearing into the shadow of the opposite building.

Another firework burst into the night sky, and the sudden gunshots were covered by the continuous sound of fireworks. Victoria took a running start on the narrow wall on the top of the bell tower, and like an arrow from a bow, she flew through the sky with a cold wind and accurately jumped into the window that once spit out tongues of fire.

A huge room appeared in front of Victoria, and near the door, a man in black stood there.

"Is it a mercury needle?" asked a processed synthetic voice.

"who."

"Let me ask you, are you Mercury Needle?"

"Do you even need to ask this?" Victoria asked coldly, "Could it be that the thing that dodged your bullet just now was the chelate?"

"So many of your companions have died, and yet you are still able to work leisurely here..."

The voice was silent for a moment. Even though the sound had been processed, Victoria could still hear a hint of bitterness.

"...You have no heart?"

Victoria was startled, and the next moment, a dagger almost cut through her eyes.
