Chapter 163 Research Institute Situation
The manor of the Dawes family is only used to hold banquets, and it is far away from the weapons research institute in the family. Being close to the heirs of the family, there is still a lot of guard work to be done, so half of the combat power has been mobilized.
Now that the Weapons Research Institute is under attack and the situation is unknown, the coming-of-age ceremony cannot continue. After Panser pleaded guilty to the people in the banquet hall, he arranged for the old butler Edward to see the guests off. So rushed to help.
The weapon research institute of the Dawes family is the foundation of the family. It stores a large number of blueprints, develops new weapons that are not announced to the public, and various reference weapons handed down from the mortal era.
If it was just these things, Panser would not be in a hurry. If the things are gone, they will be gone. What he fears most is the safety of the personnel in the Weapons Research Institute. Whether it is his son, daughter-in-law, or many researchers, losing a All will be miserable.
A group of transport beasts ran wildly on the road, carrying all the people who rushed to help.
"Don't worry, the institute's protection is still very good, and it won't be breached soon." Karen Hesser said to Panser, who was sitting across from her, who was extremely anxious.
As the foundation of the Dawes family, the Weapons Research Institute is the top priority, so when building, defensiveness comes first.
The ground floor and the basement have three floors. The ground floor and the basement floor are mainly set up with sentinels and permanent family fighters. The second floor is the experimental shooting range. It is constructed of special materials, so strong that it can withstand ten core energy cannon attacks. At the same time, for safety, each floor is equipped with a large number of offensive weapons, which are controlled by the family's guards. Such a defense is very difficult for outsiders to attack.
"Can't you be in a hurry, since the institute sent a message for help, no matter whether it is wired or wireless, it can't be contacted, and something may have happened inside." Panser was anxious.
The institute’s communication consists of wired communication and wireless communication. The interception of wireless communication can be understood as being interfered with. However, only the senior family members know where the wired communication line is buried. It is also cut off. There are only two possibilities. Either the line was found out, or it was closed from the inside, no matter which possibility, it indicated that there was a traitor in the family, and it was a high-level family, and the situation was very critical.
"Although the research area and the control room on the third floor are on the same floor, they are two different areas. With Higgs' caution, if something goes wrong, the door to the area should be closed immediately. Don't worry." Karen Hesse analyzed calmly .
Higgs is Panser's son and Jerry's biological father. He has an outstanding talent for firearm design since he was a child, and he is now in charge of weapon research.
"Who is in charge of the defense of the institute today." Karen Hesse asked.
"Pasay." Panser simply said a name.
"Why is it him? Didn't you hear what I said back then?" Hearing this name, Karen Hesse became agitated, her eyes blazing.
"I heard it, but how can it be like this? His father once saved old father and some clan elders, and the mistakes he made at that time are not wrong in the eyes of the family members." Panser whispered more and more, and at the same time Her eyes were still avoiding Karen Hesser's gaze.
"Hehe, okay, even if you all think he is right, but a person who can betray others for a little money, how can you trust him so much and let him be in charge of the defense of the research institute?" Karen Hesse asked.
"What you said is just one-sided words, and there is no evidence."
"He has been very active in the past ten years, and he was put in charge after the family meeting," Panser explained.
"You didn't stop it?"
"Why stop it? He has indeed done a good job these years, and what happened this time may not be his fault."
"You...you'd better hope that he didn't do what happened this time, otherwise the consequences will be even more serious." Karen Hesse said with a dark face.
The conversation between the two ended here, and they fell into silence together.
Chen Fang was also sitting on the transport beast at this time. He listened in a daze and didn't understand what they were talking about, but he understood that this incident was caused by the inner ghost.
Following the speed of the transport beast, it passed through the streets one by one, and after crossing a bridge, it came to a small hillside full of trees.
The Dawes family's territory covers hundreds of acres on the hillside. The family is located above the hillside, and the weapon research institute is built on a relatively flat place below the hillside.
At this time, Chen Fang heard the sound of an explosion. As the transport beast ran, the closer he got to the research institute, the louder the explosion, and at the same time he gradually heard the sound of fighting.
"Ready for battle."
After entering the woods, everyone who came to help saw the fire, and the guard leader of the Dawes family immediately shouted.
Under the order, the guards of the Dawes family immediately became armed, with weapons and firearms in their hands, ready to fight at any time.
Just as everyone was getting ready, suddenly, meteorites fell from the sky one after another.
"Enemy attack."
With the sound of shouting, the meteorite fell to the ground, blasting out deep pits, and at the same time, violent air waves and vibrations were set off.
The screams and the wails of the transport beasts were mixed together. This unidentified range attack injured and maimed nearly one-third of the people at once.
The transport beast that Chen Fang and the others were riding was at the back, but luckily they were not injured.
"Patriarch, it's dangerous here, I'll arrange for you to leave first." The guard commander ran over and said to Panser.
"Okay." Panser agreed not because he was afraid of death, but because he knew that he was an ordinary person, and he was just causing trouble here, so it would be better to go to a safe place to take command.
"Sister, come with me." Panser said to Karen Hesser and left here with the guard leader.
Karen Hesse nodded, and followed along with Chen Fang.
After the guard leader handed over the three to his two subordinates, he rushed back to command.
Escorted by the guards, the three of them came to the halfway up the hillside. There was a pavilion here. The location could clearly see the research institute. It was used as a temporary command post. At this time, a group of people gathered here.
"Patriarch, you are here." Someone came over immediately after seeing Panser.
"How's the situation?" Penser asked.
"It happened too suddenly. By the time we realized it, the first underground floor had already fallen. Now the enemy is using the defense of the ground floor to prevent us from going to the rescue."
"Because we can't get in touch with the inside, we don't know the specific situation now."
"Does anyone know who the enemy is?"
"The fighters who fought said that there were two groups of people. One group of monsters was not strong but very durable. Their bodies were transformed by mechanical structures and had traces of mutant biological transformations. The other group was awakened."
"This is the body of the weirdo who was sent over after being killed before." The man pointed to a body full of bullet holes lying on the ground and said.
Chen Fang looked over curiously, and saw that the upper body of this corpse was bloated than ordinary people, the head seemed to be sunken into the chest, the neck was almost invisible, the chest where the heart was inlaid with armor, and the left hand was a thick mechanical arm with several A large transparent tube is connected to the back, and there seems to be a brown liquid in it. The right hand is covered with scales and has sharp claws. The lower body is normal. It is wearing a pair of ordinary pants, but through the bullet holes on the pants, it can still be seen. Seeing the metallic luster inside, it seems to be a mechanical prosthesis.
Chen Fang looked at it with identification, and only got one title.
Calamity: Unknown.
Except for a name, he got nothing, Chen Fang felt that his recognition could be thrown away, it was useless at all.
"Didn't anyone notice that such a big monster appeared in our family? What are you eating?" Panser looked at the big guy on the ground, and suddenly became angry.
"According to the patrolling guards, the monster was sent here on the grounds of being a mutated biological target, and they also issued a pass issued by the person in charge of the day's duty. The group of awakened people used this pass to sneak into the research institute."
At this point, everything is clear. The attacker used a pass to deceive the gate of the research institute. After sending the monster to the shooting range on the second basement floor, he took the opportunity to launch an attack from the inside and captured the ground floor and the second basement floor.
Panser was so angry that he couldn't speak. Only Pasay, who was on duty that day, could issue a pass. If this matter had nothing to do with him, nobody would believe it.
"Where's Ma'am?" Penser asked again.
"Lady Seleucid is leading people to fight in the research institute, trying to break into the third floor to save people."
"Why don't you stop her?" Panser was in a hurry. His wife was getting old, and even if she had the strength of the fifth intermediate level, it would be greatly reduced at this age. What if something went wrong.
"Mrs. Lucy and Mrs. Seya are on the third floor." The man said timidly.
"What? Why are the two of them in there? Especially Seya, who is pregnant, shouldn't she be asked to suspend work and recuperate at home?" Panser's eyes turned red immediately.
Seya is a researcher at the Institute, and married Higgs after working with him for a long time. Lucy is Jaris' mother and also an awakened person.
"This afternoon in the control room of the research institute, I contacted that there was a major breakthrough in the new weapon, and I needed Mrs. Seya's assistance to take a look. Mrs. Lucy was worried about the pregnant Mrs. Seya, so she went together."
Panser had a terrible headache. No matter how stupid he was, he could still understand that this was a trap set up in advance by the inner ghost. Lucy and Seya were probably already taken hostage, and they were most likely to be used to coerce Higgs into opening the trap. Defense gate in the research area.
"It's over, the entire institute should be occupied." Panser muttered to himself with white lips.
