"if I?"

Du Jin was a little puzzled by McCas's lament. He knew that the former owner of this body, as a member of the "Eden", must have had a lot of contact with McCas as the captain, but from McCas's

In his words and tone, it seemed that before Du Jin's original consciousness was replaced, he had some secrets with Macas, and they were secrets about the blood seal.

McCas nodded, and he stood up from the alloy chair with his right arm, which had lost its intuition for a long time. Then he pointed at the laser pistol on Du Jin's waist and said in a calm tone:

"Can Dr. Du please lend me the pistol on your waist?"

Du Jin was not worried that McCas would do something unfavorable to him. Not to mention that he had an obvious interest relationship with the captain before. Even if Du Jin was grateful for saving him now, McCas was not worried.

He might do something to "burn the bridge", so Du Jin quickly handed him the laser pistol at his waist. Du Jin still had some emotions for this "partner" who accompanied him to kill the first corpse mutant.

So after Li Mengyan replaced him with a more efficient electromagnetic rifle, he still kept it.

"There is no need for Dr. Du. If I hadn't been rescued by other people on the ship, I wouldn't be alive today. Captain McCas, just call me by my name."

After taking the gun, McCas nodded, then pointed the gun directly at his right shoulder without any warning, and fired several shots in succession.

"Zi-Zi-"

The sound of high-temperature plasma penetrating flesh and bones rang in Du Jin's ears. He actually knew what McCas was doing. When a limb suffers a large-scale penetrating wound on the battlefield, it is often best to ampute the limb as soon as possible.

However, Du Jin had only seen this kind of behavior in the professor's explanations and books. He had never been on the battlefield and had never seen such a thing in person.

But those illusions of corpse transformations and blood seals made Du Jin's psychological acceptance significantly higher, so he was only slightly surprised for a while, and his face became much better.

McCas's infected and alienated arm immediately fell to the ground, but the normal flesh and blood connected to it continued to gush out blood. He calmly tore a strip of cloth from the bottom of his captain's uniform, and then wrapped it in a continuous

Bleeding wounds.

After doing all this, he raised his pale face and smiled at Du Jin, then sat back on the chair and said to Du Jin:

"Then I won't hide it. Yesterday, Du Jin, you came to me secretly and said that you discovered the deepest secret of the United Church: what truly symbolizes the church is a rare black holy seal, but this kind of holy seal

They only appear in some written descriptions, and almost no one has seen them. Those red blood marks are either defective products or man-made. They are just tools to spread death and are the beginning of all evil."

McCartney paused, then glanced at Ralph, who was on the ground with his eyes wide open, and said with a little self-deprecation:

"But I thought what you were talking about was false at the time, so I didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, what the federal bureaucrats asked us to mine was the red blood seal you called, and it is still being mined on this ship.

Unit, but I still arranged the operation for you according to your wishes, and injected a black medicine you gave me into your artery, and then you disappeared.

And Ralph, this bastard, seems to have gotten the news from somewhere, insisting on asking me to give him your permission code, and said it was an order from the church, but what I hate most is actually this kind of superior "cult", no

Any hesitation rejected him. Although Ralph was a medical officer assigned to the "Eden" by the Federation in order to ease the relationship with the United Church, I didn't have so many worries. It's just that this guy actually killed

He tricked the original security director and lured me here..."

At this point, McCas stopped talking. After all, the rest of the process was not very glorious for him. Du Jin looked at his hands and followed some clues in McCas's words.

, he seems to have understood where the so-called power that can suppress the black blood mark in his body comes from.

If he goes by what he said before, the black blood seal should be something with a higher level and ability than the black blood seal, and the two themselves may even have some kind of "superior-subordinate" relationship.

"If the red blood seal that is now a defective product can create such a large number of corpses, then the ability of the black blood seal may be even more terrifying, but this power is lodged in my body, which is probably the same as what was injected into me during the previous operation.

It is related to the black potion, and there may even be fragments of the black blood seal in it, but why was I selected in another time and space?"

Du Jin only felt that he had more and more questions. Originally, he thought that as long as he understood the source of his power, he could get rid of the hidden danger of the blood mark, but now it seems that other problems are coming one after another.

"Wu-wu-uh-uh-"

Ralph on the ground also began to twist violently at this time, and although his mouth was stuffed with clothes, he still made some vague screams. Du Jin walked to him. For this person who almost killed him, Du Jin

Du Jin has no mercy. Even though Du Jin's character is not very vicious, he will not have any relaxation or sympathy for his enemies.

He picked up the electromagnetic rifle in his hand, pointed the muzzle at Ralph's head, then looked into his eyes and said in a threatening tone:

"I can let you talk, but as long as you dare to shout, you can try to see which one is harder, your strengthened bones or bullets."

Although Ralph still stared at Du Jin with angry eyes, he still nodded slightly before the threat to his life.

"very good!"

Du Jin then took off the clothes from Ralph's mouth. Ralph, who had released his voice, immediately growled at Du Jin and asked:

"Why! Why do you know the secret of the Holy Seal? I have always been better than you, and I should receive all the gifts from the church. Why do you know so much? You are obviously a useless person who has not been "advanced" by the church.

How do you deserve such important information? You must be talking nonsense."

Du Jin looked at Ralph who was so excited and had a rough understanding of his psychology. Due to his excessive faith and worship, Ralph had fallen into some kind of madness. He used various methods to deal with his competitors and wanted to

Let yourself get as close as possible to the "god" you worship, and even need to obtain that extraordinary power. This kind of person is actually a kind of pitiful person, whose mind has been invaded by the cult, and the trajectory of his life has long been deviated from the direction and drifted away from the abyss of darkness.

Getting closer.

In Du Jin's view, the power of the blood seal comes from death, and the Heyi Sect, which worships the blood seal as a god, will eventually turn his life into a tribute and be swallowed by death. This is why he is determined to find a way to relieve the influence of the blood seal on himself.

The reason is that temporary power is definitely not free, and its price is probably far beyond what Du Jin can bear.

"What do you mean by "advanced"? Why are there no teachers at my level?"

Du Jin looked at Ralph and asked slowly. For this kind of person who longs for recognition, Du Jin knows exactly how to get the words out of his mouth. As long as he pretends to lower his attitude and is in his self-proud mentality, Ralph will

Tell useful information in a sarcastic way.

As Du Jin expected, Ralph first showed a mocking smile, and then responded to Du Jin in a raging tone:

"Hahaha, you are no longer worthy of being a member of the Oneness Church, so how can you receive gifts from the church? "Advancement" is the first step for any member of the Oneness Church to move towards a new human being, receiving the power of the Holy Seal

As a gift, not only can we have power that far exceeds that of mortals, but the corpses created by the Holy Seal will not attack us easily. It is precisely in this way that this federation will eventually be unified under the influence of the Holy Seal.

Become a truly complete world.”

"Won't he be attacked by the Necromorph?" Du Jin was shocked by the information revealed in Ralph's words. If he had injected fragments of the black blood seal according to what he said, let alone being attacked by the Necromorph, it stands to reason.

If you say that controlling these necromorphs is not a problem, why would you still be considered a target of attack?

"Could it be that the blood seal fragment that gave me strength is some kind of existence outside the so-called Unity Church?"

Before Du Jin could figure it out, the door to the security director's office began to shake. Du Jin had already predicted it and blocked the door with a table. The believers outside noticed the abnormality after trying to push it several times.

He immediately shouted towards the room:

"My Lord Bishop, are you in there?"

Du Jin put the clothes on Ralph's mouth again, then raised the gun and pointed it in the direction of the door. McCas was not slowed down because he had just amputated his arm. The high-temperature plasma flow emitted by the laser pistol hit the target in the direction of the door.

On the basis of cutting off his limbs, because his wounds were disinfected and stopped bleeding, McCas did not lose his fighting ability. It is not difficult to shoot a laser pistol with one hand, a weapon with almost no recoil.

matter.

"Guard! Break open this door!"

After Ralph didn't reply for a long time, the cultist outside the door called the security personnel without any hesitation. Listening to the constant footsteps outside the door, Du Jin nervously held the handle of the gun. The exoskeleton armor on his body

Defense against kinetic energy weapons is okay, but if there is a person outside holding some kind of laser weapon, then he is definitely likely to be killed on the spot.

And just when Du Jin was about to fight, and if it didn't work out, he would kidnap Ralph and leave, the originally silent communication channel came with an intermittent, but very familiar voice to Du Jin:

"Du Jin, where are you now?"

The helmet that had been somewhat deformed by Ralph's strange inhuman power now had obvious malfunctions in some functions. Du Jin no longer counted on the armor's original ability to survive in outer space for a short period of time, but as long as

Relying on the communication unit that was still functioning to get in touch with Li Mengyan, Du Jin was still confident that he would hold on until reinforcements arrived.

And what made Du Jin feel extremely happy at this time was that Li Mengyan, who he thought was already in danger, was now definitely alive, and judging from the tone of her asking where she was, she had not suffered anything.

Too serious injury.

"Mengyan, I have now entered the security center along the maintenance channel. Ralph is indeed here, and I rescued Captain McCas who was trapped here."

Less than three hundred meters away in a straight line, Manuka's team has followed Li Mengyan to the maintenance tunnel. The sound wave device she put down before has lost its sound. It may be that it was infected by some special infected body with certain intelligence.

It was destroyed, or it was possible that a large number of Necromorphs stacked together and crushed the siren.

But no matter what, its effect has been achieved. The team encountered a much smaller number of necromorphs along the way, and there were no highly mutated necromorphs. This also allowed Li Mengyan to rush here quickly.

After she eagerly inquired about Du Jin's location, her intermittent responses were received by her armored communication unit.

"Mengyan, I have entered the security center along the maintenance channel, Ralph is indeed here, and I...

Rescued...Captain McCas who was trapped here."

Li Mengyan was overjoyed when she heard the news. At least now she was sure that Du Jin's life was not in danger. However, she was familiar with armor structure and could judge from the intermittent degree of Du Jin's communication messages that Du Jin's helmet had been damaged.

There was a certain degree of damage, and she had no way of judging whether there was a greater degree of damage to the armor on her body.

After all, the concept of fighting a zombie and the concept of fighting an armed man with a gun are not on the same level at all.

"My companions have rescued Captain McCas, but they are likely to be suffering from some kind of crisis now, and we need to help them as soon as possible."

Manuka, who had always had a worried and heavy face, became obviously happy after hearing Li Mengyan's words, and the remaining teammates on the side also gave out low-pitched cheers. They, the soldiers of the Guards, were very happy.

Most of them were children adopted by McCas in his early years. In their view, McCas was like a family member. When they heard the news that he was safe, everyone's mood was obviously much higher.

What followed was gratitude to the companions Li Mengyan said. The courage and kindness to save Captain McCas alone made everyone present admire and be grateful. They knew very well that they had accompanied Captain McCas before.

What is the level of the three people who came to the medical deck? Since the hijacking opponent can subdue the three people, it means that the opponent either has a numerical advantage or is extremely powerful individually.

"Okay, let's go support now!"

Manuka didn't waste any more time and rushed straight into the gap that was as wide as his own. The remaining teammates followed and entered the maintenance channel one after another.

On Du Jin's side, the defense has already begun. A table cannot stop people wearing exoskeleton armor for too long. In this kind of street fighting in a room, Du Jin also learned relevant knowledge in the military academy:

From the perspective of bunkers, if indoor bunkers are purely considered to prevent penetration:

The base part of a non-wooden sofa, the longitudinal direction of a bookcase/wardrobe, etc. are all acceptable. The reason is that one of the principles of composite armor is to dissipate the kinetic energy of penetration (penetration) through multiple layers of different hardnesses. The penetration force is due to the

The angle of penetration force in different hardnesses changes repeatedly, affecting the final penetration result.

Especially when it comes to armor calculations, everything below 1km/s is suitable for rigid penetration (for anything over 1km/s, it is generally recommended to consider fluid or semi-fluid). For this kind of rigid penetration, composite armor protection is definitely better than single material protection.

, and at the same time, there is another type of composite armor called gap armor, so don’t be afraid that it’s not enough.

Therefore, as long as it is a cavity with a complex structure that can be basically filled, it can be used as a bunker. However, it is not recommended for door panels, TV cabinets, etc. that have a single structure and low possibility of filling. Most sofa chair backs

It is also difficult to withstand the penetration of bullets above the level of armed police guns.

Therefore, scenes like those in movies and TV shows where kicking over a table can block machine gun fire are obviously taking reality as child's play.

In terms of combat distance, due to the large space on the street, it is easy to change directions or distance yourself. As long as the distance is increased, the hit rate will plummet, especially for small-caliber pistols. After all, the warhead is light and it is easy to hit.

It will be deflected by external influences.

However, indoors are basically within the effective range. Hit wherever the opponent points, and the hit and damage will be maximized. Moreover, ricochet will be formed indoors. The ricochet can easily hit someone, and the ricochet can still cause considerable damage.

.

As for obstacles, the streets are outdoors and there are a lot of metal, glass or plastic products. These thick-looking bunkers are often very easy to penetrate. Taking cars as an example, only the engine and tires can effectively block bullets. In foreign countries,

Walls are often made of hollow bricks, which can be easily penetrated by rifle bullets. Walls are not necessarily safe bunkers. Look for thick cement blocks or stones, such as load-bearing walls.

It is more difficult indoors. Even if the large desk where Du Jin is hiding now is made of some kind of alloy, there will still be no problem in dealing with modern weapons as long as they are not rapid-fire kinetic energy weapons and as long as they stay out of the range of ricochet. But in

Under the suppression of technology in this world, kinetic energy weapons can rely on electromagnetic acceleration, which can be regarded as a streamlined version of the Gauss rifle.

Such a weapon is powered by an electromagnetic acceleration track and is a type of rifle that fires metal ammunition. It can fire metal spike bullets at supersonic speeds. This kind of ammunition is born to tear open the enemy's armor. It has high power and initial velocity.

Specs can cause damage to heavily armored tanks.

Therefore, Du Jin's pressure at this time was not as high as usual, and the believers outside did not hesitate much. They directly opened half of the alloy door and squeezed in through the gap. Du Jin immediately raised his gun.

He started to take aim, but he was facing living people, not corpses that were already dead. This change made Du Jin hesitate for a moment.

"呲-"

Manuka shot first without any hesitation. The cultist who wanted to squeeze in was basically wearing light maintenance armor, but after being hit by the laser weapon on the side of his helmet, he immediately lowered his head without any doubt.

He also fell down and got stuck at the door, blocking the passage for others to enter.

"Du Jin, in this situation where it's either him or you, hesitation is not a good choice."

Looking at Du Jin's steady and slightly trembling muzzle, McCas said with understanding. In his opinion, Du Jin's previous identity was just a scientific researcher. Even if he may have been sent to certain places for outdoor research before,

Its security is also responsible for the special escort force.

Even if he has witnessed the moment of death with his own eyes, the experience of killing other lives with his own hands is completely different. Du Jin nodded, and he also thought about some issues in his heart at this moment. At this moment, he put those believers

Think of them as "puppets" who have not yet mutated, but have been controlled by the blood seal, and their thoughts are controlled by the blood seal, and you want to free them.

With the psychological positioning, Du Jin felt that the pressure in his heart was suddenly reduced a lot. He put the butt of the gun against his chest and roughly estimated the position of those who were moving the corpse of the cultist outside the door without hesitation.

Pull the trigger, and the electromagnetically accelerated bullet instantly penetrates the alloy door panel.

"Boom--"

There was a sound of something falling to the ground outside the door. It was obviously Du Jin who had hit it. After firing a few more shots, the noise of the impact outside the door was much less.

"Did they leave?"

As soon as this idea popped into Du Jin's mind, a round sphere was thrown in from the outside. McCas immediately recognized it as a plasma grenade specialized for biological damage, and he immediately jumped to Du Jin

From the hiding position, regardless of the wound that started to ooze blood again after hitting the ground, he growled quickly:

"Get down! Quick!"

Then a shock wave hit through the alloy desk in front of him, but when the shock hit Du Jin, he discovered that it was not the destructive shock wave of the traditional shock bomb, but a large-scale shock wave.

As the electromagnetic field increased within the range, the panel in front of Du Jin's eyes immediately fluctuated violently, and the field of vision provided by the helmet became abnormally disordered. Maccas fell to the ground beside him and began to twitch, apparently temporarily losing consciousness.

"No! They might want to capture us alive!"

Du Jin stepped on their thoughts through this non-lethal range attack. He struggled to get up, but Du Jin tragically discovered that it was not just the helmet part of the armor that had problems, but also the joints of his limb armor.

There was an obvious feeling of lag, and the armor that was originally like nothing was now unusually heavy. Du Jin could only stretch out his hand and grab the edge of the alloy desk, supporting it with all his strength in an attempt to stand up.
Chapter completed!
