Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 336 The rain stops
At this time, outside Building No. 3.

Outside the glass door on the first floor, two fully armed soldiers put down their controllers and shook their heads at the group of people standing behind them.

Next to them, there is a heavy laser cutting machine, and the laser generator that serves as the "blade" of the cutting machine is emitting wisps of green smoke.

In addition to the laser launcher, there were a lot of things scattered on the ground: bricks, crowbars, hammers, chainsaws, tactical door-breaking hammers... there were even two bottles of aqua regia and a 60mm rocket launcher.

However, the surface of the tempered glass door in front of them, which was no more than one centimeter thick, did not leave any traces at all. Compared with five minutes ago, only the sticker on the door was gone.

"Director!" A soldier trotted over to a middle-aged man still in pajamas, "The second team has already dug to a depth of 25 meters..."

"Still can't get in?" The middle-aged man called "Director" tightened his pajamas around his shoulders and asked with a frown.

From the look on the soldier's face, he had already guessed the result.

"Based on the wall of Building No. 3, the barrier extends to 25 meters underground... The second group is still trying to dig deeper, but..."

"Where is the third group?" The director raised his head and looked towards the roof.

"Although the barrier does not extend directly above Building 3, it wraps around the entire building. The door to the rooftop is the same as the main door and cannot be opened... With the tools we have, the building structure cannot be destroyed."

There are a total of seventeen psychics stationed in the experiment, but no matter how hard they try, they cannot enter the blocked Building No. 3.

"Then it seems we can only wait for reinforcements from headquarters... I hope the boy can hold on..." the director sighed.

"Difficult." Sun Qiong shook his head slightly. "The picture the drone just captured... He was forced back into the room by containment No. 549. That's a dead end."

"Didn't the people from the First Research Institute just give him the Weird Equipment Suit? How long do you think he can deal with Object No. 549 with the power of the Weird Equipment Suit?" asked the director.

"It's hard to say... After comparing the observation results with the detailed information sent from the headquarters, I came to the conclusion..." Sun Qiong hesitated.

"What conclusion? Just tell me directly."

"The degree of mutation of Object 549... is completely beyond our ability to judge." Sun Qiong said, "If we hadn't detected a completely matching memetic fragment... the monster in Building No. 549 now would be completely different from Object ." Sun Qiong said helplessly.

"Not only that, but the memetic sequence of containment No. 549 is still constantly changing. It's hard for us to determine what it will become in the end..." said another researcher.

"According to what you said, the boy is dead?" The director raised his head and stared at the row of windows on the sixth floor, saying, "Let's not talk about the boy's identity... Do you know what his ability is? If he dies, it will be a huge loss for us and the entire federation..."

"Director, there is one more thing." Sun Qiong leaned close to the middle-aged man's ear and whispered, "In addition to containment No. 549, there may be more strange things at the scene."

"What do you mean?" The director raised his eyebrows and his expression suddenly became more serious.

"The technicians have just performed a memetic analysis on the barrier that covers the entire building 549... and found that the ability of this barrier does not belong to containment No. ."

"Are you saying that there is another strange creature in Building No. 3?" the director asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Maybe there is more than one." Sun Qiong whispered, "It is even possible... that the entire Building No. 3 has turned into a monster - a G-type monster."

"…Since it's a Type G monster, what does Fukada say?" The director glanced to the side and saw a girl wearing a dark brown windbreaker with straw-yellow hair draped behind her head. The girl was wearing a black eye patch on her face, covering her right eye.

With the girl's fair skin and stern face, this outfit would have been a very cool one, but unfortunately there was a sticker with "死ね" written on it on the eye mask, which instantly turned the coolness into something second-year.

Sun Qiong shook his head.

The girl's name is Fukada Miki, she is seventeen years old, of Japanese descent, and is one of the seventeen psychics stationed at the base. She is also a full-time psychic who has signed a long-term employment contract with the psychic management department.

Her code name is "Eye of Death" and her superpower comes from her right eye which is covered by an eyepatch.

Eye of Death is the code name she gave herself. Just hearing the name makes it sound like she has the ability to kill anyone she sees... This is of course impossible, but from a tactical perspective, her ability is quite a bug.

The ability of "Eye of Death" can be summed up in one sentence - after staring at a monster or infected person for two to three seconds, the target's flaws will appear in her field of vision.

She herself has no combat ability, but when she cooperates with other psychics, monster hunters, those who are qualified for monster equipment... or even ordinary people who operate modern weapons, she can have a very terrifying effect.

Although she is only seventeen years old and has only been working at Tianshu Tower for two years, she has assisted Tianshu Tower in completing more than forty tasks during these two years.

It was precisely because her abilities were too abnormal that the superpower management department gave her a revised employment contract. In addition to being required to be on call at any time, she had almost the highest degree of freedom among full-time superpowers, as well as ten times the salary and benefits.

But even the "Eye of Death" could not see the "flaw" in the barrier covering Building No. 3.

"Snapped."

A drop of cold liquid hit Fukada Miki's face. The girl raised her head and looked at the dark night sky.

Accompanied by a "swish" sound, the rain falling from the sky began to increase.

"Director, it's raining." A guard took out an umbrella and held it over the director's head.

Apart from the busy soldiers, other researchers were also looking for rain gear, or simply hiding in the vehicles nearby.

Fukada Miki snorted coldly, pulled up the hood of her windbreaker, and tucked her hands into the wide sleeves.

In just a few seconds, the drizzle had turned into moderate rain and was showing a tendency to develop into heavy rain.

At this moment, a roar of an engine came from overhead, and a helicopter with the Tianshu Tower emblem slowly lowered its altitude. The 16-meter-long propeller blades cut through the rain curtain and threw the rain water away.

When the helicopter was about three meters away from the ground, a young man in a thin sweater jumped out of the cabin. The moment his feet touched the ground, the rain suddenly stopped.

"I hate the rain," the young man muttered. "It's wet and cold."

Miki Fukada narrowed her eyes. She felt a very dangerous aura from this young man.

In addition to the "Eye of Death", her intuition is also very sharp - she once believed that intuition was also one of her superpowers, but this statement was not recognized by the superpower management department.

Miki Fukada quietly lifted her blindfold and looked at Sun Hang with the "eye of death".

Unlike the light brown pupil of her left eye, her right eye showed a verdant blue color, just like a piece of the finest blue jadeite…As the blue in her eyes slowly flowed, the pupil of her right eye quickly contracted.

At first glance, she saw that the young man's body was covered with flaws almost everywhere. If a sticker were pasted on each flaw, the densely packed stickers would almost wrap the young man into a walking mummy.

But after she blinked, all the flaws on the young man disappeared!

He became a "flawless" being!

Miki Fukada was certain that the young man was an infected person because her ability would only work on objects carrying the meme, but this was the first time she had seen a hunter without any flaws.

Anyone in any state will have flaws. Although those flaws may not be fatal, they will definitely exist... No one can make themselves flawless. Theoretically speaking, this is impossible.

But in just these few short minutes, Fukada Miki saw two flawless beings.

One is the barrier of Building No. 3, and the other is the young man who jumped out of the helicopter.

"Who is he?" Fukada Miki couldn't help but become curious, "Is he the monster hunter sent by Tianshu Tower?"

……

"Besides being wet and cold, there's also mud." Sun Hang glanced at the mud on the toes of his shoes with some disdain, then walked straight towards Sun Qiong, "Where's Ling Xiao?"

"He's in this building." The director spoke first, "You... no, you should be... the 'VIP', right?"

"What's the difference between V and VIP? I have a name, just call me Sun Hang." Sun Hang said, "Who are you?"

"The second-in-command of the Superpower Management Department." The director said, "He is also the manager of this test base."

"Oh, then I'll call you Lao Er." Sun Hang said casually.

"Ahem...just call me by my name. My name is Yuan Rui."

"Okay, Yuan Lao Er." Sun Hang nodded, "Is this building the No. 3 building that is blocked by the barrier?"

"Yes, Ling Xiao is now on the sixth floor, at that window." Yuan Rui stretched out a hand and pointed while saying, "Four minutes ago, he and containment No. 549 had a brief battle in the corridor."

"how is the situation?"

"He cut off one of Subject 549's arms... but it wasn't a fatal injury to Subject 549." Yuan Rui said as quickly as possible, "Subject 549 then killed a reserve psychic and his girlfriend. A minute ago, the reserve psychic living in Room 607 also lost his vital signs. Now Subject 549 is in Room 607... eating."

"What about Ling Xiao?"

"He was forced back into Room 549 by Subject No. 608 and has not come out since then." Yuan Rui replied.

At this time, the helicopter that Sun Hang was riding in finally landed steadily on the ground, and Yuri, who had changed into a set of field training uniforms, ran out of the cabin quickly.

"The latest comparative data is out. The mutation level of Object 549 has reached 2913%!" Yuri said with a hint of anger. "How is this possible?! Didn't I tell you to cut off all power to Building 549? Did you use a powerful searchlight to shine on Object ?!"

"No!" Yuan Rui suddenly felt a little aggrieved. "After discovering the invasion of the monster, we immediately tested the monster's meme and notified various departments including you! Then, at your request, we cut off the power supply of Building No. 3 and turned off most of the light sources in the base, leaving only the minimum level of lighting."

Yuan Rui pointed at the laptops and instruments on the table in the tent and continued, "If the light from the indicator light and the fluorescence from the computer screen can induce containment No. 549 to mutate to that extent, then I really have no other choice. My subordinates are all humans, and they can't work in a completely dark environment!"

Yuan Rui's grievance was not without reason. The scene was indeed pitch black. Apart from the insignificant light from the monitoring equipment, almost everyone was working in the dark... The only more than one hundred head-mounted night vision goggles in the base had all been distributed.

If we were to talk about the brightest light source at the scene, it would probably be the lights on Sun Hang and his team's helicopter.

"This brightness of light... It is indeed impossible for Containment No. 549 to mutate to this extent..." Yuri pondered, "But according to the data we collected earlier, Containment No. 549 must have been directly exposed to a high-lumen light source during this period of time."

"Could it be the lights in the corridor?" Yuan Rui asked. "Before the power was cut off, the corridor of Building No. 549 was always lit... If Object lay dormant under the light for a while and then..."

"No, there's not enough time!" Yuri rejected it outright. "Containment No. 549 just disappeared and you found it... Let's not talk about how it instantly crossed a distance of dozens of kilometers and appeared here. Even if it was exposed to the light the whole time, it wouldn't..."

Before Yuri could finish his words, Sun Qiong interrupted him with a low cry: "Containment No. 549...it came out of room No. 607!"

Everyone immediately raised their heads and looked towards the windows on the sixth floor.

A bloody humanoid creature could be vaguely seen standing in the corridor, with something that looked like human intestines hanging from its messy long hair...

Just as Sun Hang was looking at it, it seemed to sense something, turned its head and looked downstairs.

Sun Hang saw a pair of bright red eyes, so red that they seemed to be dripping with blood.

The next second, Object No. 549 withdrew his gaze and instantly accelerated towards Room No. 608 at the end of the corridor!
