"Beep!"
"Beep!"
"Beep!"
The moment the shrill sirens blared over the Quantico military base, expressions of surprise and astonishment crossed the faces of the soldiers on duty, those resting in their barracks, or those already resting in the town.
A split second later,they reacted.
"Holy shit!"
"Combat alert."
"Enemy attack."
"Jesus Christ, what's going on?"
"Another fucking sneak attack from the Japanese! No way, this is Quantico, not Pearl Harbor."
The soldiers were stunned, but once they realized what was happening, they quickly jumped into combat mode.
This was Quantico, after all.
It was a Marine Corps base, not to mention the FBI Academy and Langley Headquarters nearby.
Almost three seconds after the battle alarm sounded, the first soldier quickly appeared, followed by the second, the third...
"Hua La La!"
"Where?"
"Gamma Lab."
"Fuck!"
A lieutenant colonel cursed upon hearing that the former Gamma Lab had been invaded.
He pulled on his clothes and ran to the door, pulling out his phone and dialing.
The call quickly connected.
"Hello!"
a deep voice came from the other end.
"General, Gamma Lab has been invaded."
"..."
On the other end of the line, General Thaddeus Ross, who had just left the Pentagon and got into his car, was stunned by the news.
Oh my god.
What did he hear?
Gamma Lab was invaded?
How could it be possible?
Gamma Lab is located at the Marine Corps base in Quantico.
How the hell could it be invaded there?
General Thaddeus Ross, who was skeptical of the news, was stunned and said something.
"Tell me again, where was the invasion?"
"Gamma Lab."
"Shit!"
Thaddeus Ross's heart sank.
"What's going on?"
"The emergency response team is already there. I'm on my way."
"..."
Thaddeus Ross took a deep breath, loosened his tie, and patted the driver's seat. "Quantico, hurry!"
The driver nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and started racing right under the noses of two Capitol Police officers standing nearby.
The two Capitol Police officers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Meanwhile,the base's emergency response team had arrived at the Gamma Lab, which was surrounded by metal sheets.
Loud, rumbling sounds echoed from within the Gamma Lab, and the secret experimenters who had been inside the lab began to run out in panic.
The moment they emerged, the arriving soldiers pounced on them, catching them like chickens.
"What's going on inside? How many intruders are there?
What do they want to do?" "I don't know. I know nothing."
"One. He's going for the gamma stone." "
..."
The emergency team leader fell silent as he looked at the experimenter who had revealed the information.
The other soldiers also looked at the experimenter with disbelief.
"You just said... one?"

"Yes, just one,"
The experimenter's face still shone with terror. "But he's not human.He shattered the wall with just one punch, and the bullets couldn't hit him. The soldiers who shot at him were all killed."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
At this moment, a soldier, seemingly injured but not dead, who had been aided by the experimenter, ran out and echoed, "What he said is true. There was only one intruder."
The emergency team leader's gaze instantly fell on the soldier who was aiding him.
"Soldier, report the situation."
"It's just as he said. There was only one intruder. He seems to be after the gamma stone. Our bullets couldn't hit him. He killed every soldier who shot at him almost instantly."
"What about you?"
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
The injured soldier, now in a state of mental collapse, roared at the emergency team leader, "He killed every soldier who shot at him."
In fact, he had fired his weapon.
But his gun suddenly jammed at the moment of firing, and no bullet was discharged.
It was precisely because of this that Hawke, at the last moment, didn't kill him, instead shattering his leg, rendering him incapacitated.
But the other soldiers who fired shots and the armed experimenters inside weren't so lucky.
As Hawke had said before,once the killing spree was opened, killing was no longer a matter of choice, but simply a matter of quantity.
Yet Hawke remained restrained.
Hawke had already reached the basement of the Gamma Laboratory.
His first sight was the excavated hole in the basement.
With a thud,Hawke, wearing a hood and a medical mask, leaped directly into the hole.
Then,he saw a tunnel, a narrow passageway covered in stone picks and other tools. "
Wow, how primitive!" he thought.
"No.
This must have been intentional. After all, not all members of the military are united."
Hawke's eyes drifted to the stone walls on either side of the passageway.
That was the stone he had seen in Dr. Connors's laboratory.
Just then.
A phoenix cry echoed through Hawke's microcosm, and a message was relayed to him.
"Devour."
"Leave it to you to refine."
"That's easy."
Hawke digested the message.
He had originally thought he'd have to do some minor work, mining these stones that, for some unknown reason, had absorbed gamma rays following the explosion in the gamma lab.
Turns out all he had to do was place his hand on them, igniting his own microcosm so that the Phoenix Constellation within them could absorb the gamma rays stored within them.
This was fantastic.
Hawke's face lit up, and he was about to absorb them.
But just as he was about to do so, his gaze flickered to the entrance of the cave he had just jumped from.
Hawke launched a powerful punch towards the entrance.
Boom!
The entrance to the basement collapsed under his punch, and smoke and dust, accompanied by a shockwave, instantly swept through the excavated, though shallow, tunnel.
But the smoke and dust had no effect on Hawke.
He did this mainly because he didn't want the people above to disturb his next work.
Now it's all right, I can absorb it with peace of mind.
Hawke thought to himself, without hesitation, placing his hands on the stone walls on both sides.
The next second!
The microcosm exploded!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
