I am immortal with scientific thinking

Chapter 854: Guardian in the Dark

When riding in a car late at night, be sure to keep your eyes open.

Because you don’t know whether the car will drive silently into a sparsely populated place while you close your eyes, such as a dead end with no people, a deserted wilderness with no lights, an abandoned factory area, etc.

If this is the case, there is no doubt that you are in danger because someone is targeting you.

Of course, it is also possible... that it is not a human.

At this moment, the old detective felt as if he was sealed in a corpse freezer. The coldness called death penetrated every inch of his skin, even deep into his bones.

For some reason, he suddenly recalled what Lin Chen said in the interrogation room:
"…But I can tell you for sure that I didn't kill anyone."

Yes, he did not kill anyone, because the person he killed... was not a human at all!

But the monster in front of him had a face exactly like his, but a body like a corpse!

Looking at that face that no longer looked like a living person, the old detective had only one thought in his mind...

run!
Run now!
Click!Click!Click!
The door handle of the car was pulled up frantically, but the door was already locked and could not be opened.

Then, accompanied by the sound of breaking bones, the monster who looked exactly like the old detective sitting in the driver's seat actually turned his right hand 180 degrees, stretched it out suddenly, and grabbed the old detective's neck tightly. An overwhelming force was transmitted from this cold and stiff hand, and a strong feeling of suffocation and dizziness quickly came to the mind.

“Die, die…”

The experience of catching vicious criminals has taught the old detective that in a critical moment, the most important thing is not to ask the other party to stop, but to resist, resist at all costs!

His hand went to his waist...

Then...

boom!
At that moment, the gun went off.

The old detective took out the pistol from his waist, pointed it at the monster in front of him that looked exactly like himself, and pulled the trigger hard!
boom! boom! boom!
In the darkness, the death-like silence was completely torn apart.

Cars were flashing lights and sirens were blaring.

The bullet completely shattered the car's instruments, and it was not even clear whether it hit the fuel tank. The old detective covered his neck and gasped, but he could not care less now. He quickly opened the car door and staggered out.

At first he was wondering why the superiors allowed every criminal policeman to be equipped with a gun, and even to carry it with them at all times. It turned out that it was to deal with this kind of monster!

“Ahem! No, I can’t leave. I have to get back to the police station and report this to my superiors, otherwise more people will die at the hands of these monsters!”

But the old detective had just gotten out of the car and taken a few steps when he suddenly froze in place.

Because in front of him and behind him, at some point, there were already densely packed black shadows.

Most of these shadows were hidden in the darkness, with their oval heads facing away from the old detective.

Judging from its outline, its limbs are long and thin and it doesn't look like a human...

Because no one's limbs can grow to two meters!

What frightened him the most was that these tall and thin black shadows were shrinking continuously at this moment. Their limbs were folding, their bodies were swelling, their heads were turning, their faces were twisting... In the end, they turned into people who looked exactly like him!
Fake...person!

Seeing this scene, this word suddenly popped up in the old detective's mind, and a long-lost fear surged into his heart at this moment.

What he fears is not his own death, but what these pseudo-people symbolize.

Xiao Wu, who was almost inseparable from him, had been quietly replaced. What about the others, the others in the police station?

Have the others been replaced?

Even worse, has the entire police station been completely invaded?

Have the colleagues I work with day and night, the disciples I have brought up, the dignified old leaders... all turned into these monsters that are neither human nor ghost?

If they are already like this, what about the other humans who live in this prosperous metropolis with bright lights and nightlife that they are protecting?
How many of them have been replaced?
Regardless of whether these pseudo-humans have superior intelligence or not, one thing that can be seen is that they are hunting, and in countless silent nights like this, they have quietly replaced real humans.

If no one sounded the alarm, and the fake people were allowed to replace their real people, then would the lights of the thousands of homes that he had protected with all his efforts over the past few decades, and without regard for his life, be replaced by these damned monsters? !

No, no, absolutely not, no matter what!

Thinking of this scene, the old detective's eyes turned red at this moment, and he could no longer care about anything else.

Having lived for most of his life and caught so many criminals, he has long seen through life and death. He is not afraid of criminals, evil, or death. The only thing he fears is that these damn things will destroy everything he is trying to protect with his life!
For the sake of their families, cowards can take up knives and guns. For the beliefs in their hearts, brave people may not fear death. Even when facing this monster that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, the old detective does not show any fear!
With this thought in mind, the old detective no longer hesitated, turned around, and pointed the gun at the car's fuel tank without hesitation.

As long as they find a way to detonate the car, the violent explosion will definitely attract attention from all parties. In addition, this car is closely related to the police station, and the bullet marks left at the scene will inevitably attract the attention of superiors.

The old detective didn't know whether this would allow the higher-ups to discover the fake person, but at this point, he could only take a gamble.

Even if the stakes are his life!
call--!
But before he could fire his gun, he heard a whistling sound of wind.

Then, he flew backwards from where he was and hit the wall hard!

A flash of blood completely blurred his vision, and the severe pain made his body lose all perception. Only his mouth and nose could feel liquid flowing down.

Not only can these monsters disguise themselves as humans, their physical fitness also seems to be far superior to that of ordinary people!

"Car, detonate the car..."

At this moment of life and death, the old detective had only this one thought in his mind.

He even forced himself to stand up and struggled to crawl towards the car.

As long as the ignition is turned on and the switch is turned on, the car with the bullet piercing the cash box may explode, which will be enough to attract the firefighters and the police. With his current identity, the bullet marks left at the scene will be enough to attract the attention of the top leaders of civilization!
But at this moment, a fake person who looked exactly like him and was naked walked up to the old detective who was crawling on the ground covered in blood, then raised his foot and stomped down hard!

boom! ! !
At this moment, the head exploded like a watermelon falling from a high altitude, blood and brain matter spilt everywhere, accompanied by the sound of a body falling down. However, the one who fell down was not the old detective, but... a fake person!
Its head was completely blown up, and a bowl-sized hole was left on the wall in front of it, emitting a burnt smell. It was obviously penetrated by some heavy weapon!

This sudden change made the intelligent pseudo-people present stunned for a moment. At this moment, they all turned their heads and looked in one direction.

I saw a very tall figure standing on a high wall.

The figure had a metallic luster under the moonlight, and his limbs were too long to look like a human. There was a faint glow, and in his hand he held a huge revolver, with faint white smoke emanating from the muzzle.

This is the most powerful pistol in the world, no doubt about it, it can even be said to be a hand cannon.

Smith & Wesson's improved M500 revolver!

The original version was a terrifying firearm used to hunt large creatures such as rhinos and elephants. Now it has been further improved and can even forcibly tear a big hole in a small tank.

But the price to pay is that even if a trained adult male fired this shot, he would either die or have his arm half-broken due to the horrific recoil. This is simply not a firearm that can be used by the human body.

But now in the hands of this dark shadow, it is like a pistol in his sleeve and can be used at will!
"Fuck! I tracked more than a dozen cars before I locked onto your location. You monsters are really fucking sneaky and hid really well!"

Under the dim light in the distance, the black shadow revealed its appearance, and it was Su Mu's face.

But at this moment, he was very different from before. His whole body was covered in a layer of steel, like a large robot in movies and TV shows, with the tremendous strength of a super soldier.

This is the technology developed by the Federation of Human Civilization - mechanical exoskeleton armor!

A mechanical exoskeleton, or powered exoskeleton, is a wearable device made of a steel frame that provides extra energy for movement of the limbs.

With this "costume", humans can become so-called "supermen"!
After this technology was perfected in the third season, the biggest remaining limitation was energy.

Although it has been developed for hundreds of years, mankind's cutting-edge battery technology, whether it is sodium-ion battery, lithium-sulfur battery technology, or other battery technology, still cannot perfectly serve as the energy device of mechanical exoskeleton armor.

It was not until the twentieth year after the disaster that the evolutionary disaster began. Humans discovered a species of electric eels evolved from electric eels in the depths of the ocean. Using their specific characteristics, they developed the latest version of the battery, which perfectly met the needs of exoskeleton armor in terms of energy density, power output, charging and discharging performance, and other properties.

As a result, this black technology has finally come from the laboratory to the battlefield!
That's why Su Mu dared to come to the meeting alone.

Of course, saying that he is just one person is just bragging. After all, behind him there are a series of equipment and teams on standby behind the scenes, including the honeycomb type small drone bombing system, the long-distance orbital electromagnetic cannon for positioning and fixing, and the exoskeleton special forces team. Once things change, they will be completely activated!

But at least from the current situation, it is indeed him who is fighting against these alien monsters that are not human!

"Hiss~ Thinking of this, I suddenly feel my blood boiling. One man against many, with weapons and horses, this is the romance of a man!"

Su Mu suddenly murmured to himself, and it suddenly dawned on him why these mechanical exoskeleton armors were so difficult to apply for. He had to ask his mentor Fang Changqing to make a call personally. Which man wouldn't want to get his hands on such weapons that were guaranteed to be safe and had terrifying lethality?

Unfortunately, the monsters in front of him didn't understand men's romance. When they sensed danger, they acted without hesitation.

In just a few seconds, they burst out with a speed that humans could not achieve, crossed a distance of more than ten meters and a three-meter-high wall, and pounced towards Su Mu!
Obviously, unlike the fake people that Lin Chen faced, when facing the old criminal police who were armed with guns and had rich experience, the fake people dispatched the strongest among them, or the army, to ensure the smooth operation.

These pseudo-humans far surpass ordinary humans in strength and speed!
At least at this moment, the space in front of Su Mu was completely covered by the fake people!
But what greeted them was not torn flesh and blood, but a cold light as cold as autumn water!

In an instant, the night was shrouded in a silver-white cold light, and the knife came out like a dragon, dancing in the wind, bringing blood to the sky and a bloody wind!
I saw a knife appeared in his hand at some point. It was a knife that was used to killing and skilled in beheading. It perfectly combined human body mechanics and aeromechanics.

In particular, the one-piece manufacturing method using modern technology makes the blade and handle integrally formed without any flaws. When swinging the knife, you can hardly feel the air resistance, and the blade has an excellent curvature, ensuring the concentration of the best cutting force.

In order to ensure its sharpness, the research institute has used the most advanced technology since the third season to create it, allowing it to truly be able to cut iron like mud and break stone with a single blow. It is a first-class killing weapon.

As for why he didn't use that high-energy particle lightsaber, Su Mu wanted to borrow it to play with, but that thing was too precious and he couldn't borrow it!
But at least this is enough. At least under this long sword, these fake people present are not just one team at a time. Under the continuous flashes of the sword, blood and flesh splattered, and broken limbs were scattered all over the ground.

Some even wanted to take the old detective as a hostage, but a shot from the improved M500 revolver in his hand blew their lower bodies to pieces, leaving them no chance of resistance at all!
"We need to keep him alive, and also keep some materials... huh?!"

Su Mu, who was killing people indiscriminately, suddenly changed his expression. He rushed forward without hesitation, protected the old detective lying on the ground behind him, and then ran out desperately.

next moment……

boom! ! !
Accompanied by a huge explosion, raging flames suddenly lit up in the darkness!

The car parked in the alley exploded at this moment!

"Damn, three of them ran away."

After the explosion dissipated, Su Mu, who was protecting the old detective, raised his head and looked at the three black shadows fleeing rapidly in the distance, feeling a little puzzled.

boom!
But at this moment, a dull gunshot suddenly rang out in the darkness.

One of the fleeing black shadows froze and fell down.

"Fuck! This is... an anti-material heavy sniper rifle?! Dude, don't kill them all!"

When Su Mu saw this scene, a look of anxiety appeared on his face.

"Don't worry. We have to give them the feeling that their escape was difficult so that they won't get suspicious." A cold voice came from the headset.

"I hope your actions won't cause any accidents..."

Su Mu replied unhappily, and then immediately said,
"Quick! Send the micro-tracking drone to follow, and use the Skynet system to assist the low-Earth orbit satellite in locking onto the target!"

"Yes!"

In the darkness, something like a hummingbird followed silently.

The scene was filled with blood, body parts, and bullet holes, and a group of professionals quickly arrived to clean up the traces and seal off the surrounding area.

In the city center not far away, there is still a hustle and bustle of life with many men and women enjoying themselves. Not many people know about the battle that took place in the dark, nor do many people know the sacrifices and efforts made by each guardian to maintain this prosperity. (End of this chapter)
