LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 53 Mission
Video accepted here.
Command Center: (slightly surprised) Ruins? Agent, are you sure?
Agent A: Confirm, you can connect to my individual camera with Agent ■■(B).
Command Center: Good agent, in the process of connecting, please continue to go deeper.
Agent A: Received.
.
After Agent A ended the call with the command center, Agent B appeared in his field of vision, looked left and right at the giant stone pillar, and kept shaking his head.
.
Agent B: Dude, I always have a bad feeling that... if we go any further, our lives will be lost.
Agent A: (Goes deep through the door frame) Okay, we can't go back without seeing those travelers or anomalies.
Agent B: (sighs) Well, well, it's good that the company gave my son enough money to go to college.
.
The two agents continued to advance deep.
The corridor structure behind the door frame is very different from the naturally formed tunnel outside the door frame.
Boxy.
The width and height remain the same, about five meters.
And the walls are painted with various frescoes, and there are ancient Greek texts every once in a while.
Although the corridor didn't turn off, the agents wasted some time on this stretch of the way to make all the murals and text visible to the command center.
five minutes later;
Agent B: (sniffs) Do you smell it?
Agent A: (sniffs) Well, kind of like hard-boiled…rotten eggs.
In unison: Magma!
Agent A: (There is light at the end of the hallway in view) It looks like... there is lava ahead to illuminate us.
Agent B: (blows a whistle) We visited an active volcano at public expense.
Agent A: (chuckles) Alright, turn off the night vision system.
Agent B: Ok.
.
The two agents turned off the night vision system.
The video screen was dim at first, but gradually brightened as Agent A walked.
The agents came to an expansive lobby.
Agent A looks around.
The space is rectangular.
The height, length and width are the same, about 100 meters.
The ground is made of neat marble bricks, and there are several rows of giant statues of ancient heavy soldiers on the right.
In front of the field of vision, there is still a stone pillar door frame similar to the entrance.
The abyss on the left hand side glows red, illuminating the hall where the agents are.
In the center of the screen, there are several pools of blood and residues of clothes.
Seeing this, the two agents stabilized the rifles in their hands and stepped forward to check.
.
Agent A: (breathing slightly) It seems that there are anomalous containment items confirmed here.
Agent B: (in a tense tone) Ah… man, I think it's time for us to retreat, my sixth sense tells me it's not good.
Agent A: (Gesturing Agent B to wait a moment) Command center, confirm the casualties of passengers.
It should be caused by an abnormal phenomenon. Do you want to continue to explore?
Command Center: Good agent, we have seen the real-time picture, if you judge that there is danger, you can… (interrupted)
Ow-!
A deafening roar came.
Immediately afterwards, Agent A looked towards the source of the sound.
A huge lion appeared in the field of vision, slowly walking out of the rows of statues.
It looks like a common African lion, and is judged to be a male lion by the mane on its head and neck.
But the size is more than seven or eight times larger than that of a normal male lion.
His eyes radiated a dim light that scrutinized the prey, and he stared at the two agents.
.
Agent B: (rapidly) Man, it's time for us to retreat!
Agent A: (raised voice) Command Center, did you see what we saw!
Command Center: Agents, retreat quickly, UBCS will take over!
Agents A and B: Yes!
.
clap clap! clap clap!
The two agents began firing alternately, retreating toward the corridor behind them, covering each other.
Ow-! ! !
But the 5.56 caliber warheads of the two agents could not cause any damage to the male lion at all, and even made it even more angry.
The field of vision swayed violently with Agent A's frequent turning back and running.
Pfft!
The sound of the human body being stepped on by a heavy object.
The video footage shows that when Agent A turns and crouches down and tries to cover Agent B's retreat and shoots at the lion, it is found that…
Agent B has been crushed to death by the lion's giant claws.
what! !
While shouting angrily, Agent A hung his rifle on his chest, freeing his hands to find a grenade.
flutter! !
However, before Agent A opened the grenade ring, the lion jumped in front of him and hit Agent A's body directly with a giant claw fan.
what--!
Pfft!
At the end of the screen, Agent A made a parabolic motion in the air, and finally fell into the magma at the bottom of the abyss on the left side of the hall.
Video ends.

…
inside the car;
This this.
When the old President Carolos saw the content of the video, he put down his glasses in disbelief and sighed:
God! The army never told me that there are ruins under the Santorini volcano, and there is a giant beast in the ruins.
Mr. President. William replied indifferently:
What you see is only owned by Umbrella.
Hey... I hope you can go to heaven.
Carolos sighed to himself with his eyes closed, as if he was sad for what happened to the two agents and the passengers.
.
William didn't say much, but gave the old president time to relax.
The huge male lion shown in the video is not difficult for the prepared UBCS to arrest.
The only thing worth paying attention to is that there are ancient ruins under the active volcano.
There was no need for William to come to Greece to deal with it.
But the fact...
When the two agents contacted the command center in Athens and died, the system that had been silent for a long time also popped up.
According to its original words:
[Anomalies that are difficult to contain have been detected.
If the host's troops successfully contain all the anomalies of this event.
This system will give the host two chances to draw the characters. 】
and then…
Not anymore.
The system did not mention at all which world the anomaly came from.
However, William also analyzed from the minimalist words of the system that this containment operation had to face most anomalous phenomena.
In other words, there are stronger enemies after the giant lion.
So William and Andre brought the UBCS company equipped with AAES from the Troy base, plus the Alphas equipped with five sets of biochemical armor.
