Chapter 59

So, the four people on Ma Le's side began to wait. The food and drinks here were relatively abundant, and even if they ran out, there were reserves in other nearby abandoned houses. Ma Le had also encountered some survivors in the houses he had been to, but after going through hell, these people no longer trusted anyone, so Ma Le did not want to disturb them.

By the way, the dozen or so舔食者 (Lickers) had also exploded five boxes, which the four had already opened, but they were just some materials like fingernails and blood. The four casually divided them.

On Sun Wenxing's side, they had successfully found Kyle Reese, brought him to a hotel, and told him that they were the second batch of Sarah Connor's bodyguards sent years after he had traveled through time, to deal with the second batch of "Terminator" assassins sent by Skynet. This warrior from the future was extremely excited to see Sarah Connor and did not even question the identities that the adventurers had casually fabricated. The adventurers naturally knew that this guy, born in the ruins of war, had been secretly in love with Sarah for a long time, and had been jerking off to a forty-year-old photo for years. Now, traveling through time to meet his goddess, how could he not be excited?

Perhaps the plot and fate were secretly at work. With the groundwork laid by the adventurers, Sarah did not treat Kyle as a lunatic at first, as in the movie, but naturally accepted the reality and even developed a good impression of this handsome and capable warrior. The adventurers couldn't help but secretly exclaim that Kyle, who could travel through time and kill the leader's mother, was truly a model of rising from the bottom and a paragon of a nobody's comeback!

Sun Wenxing handed over the most powerful weapons he had collected to Kyle. He had already scanned Kyle with the Miracle Badge, and Kyle's strength attribute was as high as 9, his stamina attribute was 10, and his agility attribute was unknown, clearly exceeding the 10-point scanning limit of the Miracle Badge. Just these three attributes made Kyle stronger than most beginners, not to mention that he also had a toughness talent, increasing his health by an additional 400 points, making him more durable than the average ordinary level.

Of course, besides these hardware capabilities, Sun Wenxing valued Kyle's combat skills even more. Having fought powerful Terminators since he was a child, Kyle's combat experience might even surpass the strongest champion-level adventurers! As a seasoned professional soldier, Kyle was almost proficient in all weapons, could remain calm in battle, and was always ready to sacrifice for his faith, making him a world apart from beginners who only had enhancements but no courage! Getting such a powerful warrior, how could Sun Wenxing not be happy!

Just as everyone was rejoicing over the strong reinforcement, a sudden cry and scream came from the street outside the window. Kyle flashed to the window, pulled down the blinds, and peered out through the slats.

"What's wrong?" Sun Wenxing asked. Kyle put his hand down and replied, "It's the Lickers, there are about seven or eight of them. Damn, I only heard that a biohazard outbreak happened in this era, but I didn't expect it to be so severe!"

Lickers? What are these things? Jasmine also pried open the blinds and told the others in Chinese, "They are Lickers!" The adventurers had been wandering around Los Angeles and had naturally seen these monsters before.

Sun Wenxing frowned and asked Kyle, "Do you have biohazard monsters in your time as well?" Kyle replied in confusion, "Of course, the biohazard outbreak in Los Angeles in 1984 was successfully stopped, but the military had already obtained samples of the biohazard virus. When the Skynet crisis broke out, that damned AI used biological weapons to destroy humanity... Don't you know? Aren't you from a time after mine?"

Faced with Kyle's doubt, Sun Wenxing coughed and said, "After John Connor's victory, he destroyed this virus. In our time, biohazard monsters are history, only Terminators remain..."

Kyle nodded, provisionally believing Sun Wenxing's explanation, and continued to observe the street. The other adventurers, however, began to discuss in Chinese. It turned out that Hurricane City's intervention had already changed the future of this world. Although human civilization still experienced a catastrophe, it was destroyed by biological weapons rather than nuclear weapons. Would this change the difficulty of the world? With Skynet obtaining the T-virus, would the Terminators it created still be the same as in the movies?

As if answering the adventurers' questions, Kyle looked out the window and added, "By the way, since you have no experience facing biohazard monsters, I need to remind you that the Terminator sent back with me has a biological shell that has been modified by the biohazard virus. It not only has strong infectivity but also greatly enhanced combat power!"

"What?!" The ordinary-level adventurers were shocked when they heard the translation. The T-800 was already terrifying, and with the abilities of a biohazard monster, it would be even more dangerous! Several of them began to secretly rejoice, comforting themselves that joining Sun Wenxing's side was the right choice, as they wouldn't have to face such a terrifying Terminator...

Only Sun Wenxing was not afraid; he even showed a sinister smile, walked to a corner, and whispered to the Miracle Badge, "Find the T-800 immediately..."

On the other side, the T-800 drove the stolen car to the gun shop where the adventurers had stayed before. Many good things in the shop had already been taken, but as a machine that did not feel regret or surprise, the T-800's only reaction was to collect and select all the visible weapons. Then, following the plot of the movie, it flipped through the phone book and drove to the first house of a woman named Sarah Connor.

The T-800 rang the doorbell, but no one answered for a long time, so it simply smashed the door open. The house was in disarray, with bloodstains everywhere. Under the T-800's infrared vision, there were no signs of life on the first floor. Suddenly, a drop of liquid fell on the T-800's head. It looked up and finally saw the owner of the house, Sarah Connor. However, she no longer looked human but had transformed into a disgusting and ugly Licker.

Speaking of Lickers, in the movie version of "Resident Evil," they were biohazard weapons developed by *Company and appeared as the final boss in the first part. However, in the original game, their appearance was a coincidence, and no one knew exactly how they were born. It was speculated that they were zombies that had mutated after consuming a large amount of flesh. In the Terminator world, there was no *Company and no systematic biohazard experiments. It seemed that this time, Hurricane City's T-virus had been brought from the game world. Releasing the T-virus in a large city like Los Angeles with millions of people, the probability of Lickers appearing was naturally very high.

Lickers have a body mass similar to humans, belonging to the medium-sized category. Their strength is generally between 15 and 30 points, agility between 25 and 50 points, and stamina between 10 and 25 points. They are typical agile monsters with high attack and low defense. However, as products of the biohazard virus, these monsters also have the zombie constitution, and can only be killed by destroying their brains. Fortunately, the Licker's brain is exposed without a skull to protect it, making it a zero-armor vital point that can be easily destroyed, provided you can keep up with its speed.

Now, this Licker had its eyes on the T-800. As a stealthy Terminator, the T-800 was indistinguishable from a normal human in non-combat mode, and in the Licker's eyes, it was just a delicious meal. The skinless, long-tongued monster suddenly jumped down and pounced on the Terminator. The T-800 did not dodge or evade, but extended its right hand to meet the Licker, accurately and quickly grabbing its head, and with a forceful grip, the Licker's head burst, splattering blood and brain matter everywhere.

The Licker, known for its speed and assassination, could not even last one round against this enhanced T-800, something the T-800 in the movie could not do!

"Clap, clap, clap..." Applause came from the second floor, and a man and a woman walked down the stairs with a calm and casual pace. The man was tall and muscular but had a potbelly, making him look somewhat flabby, while the woman was petite and delicate, with most of her body hidden under a thick cloak. They were Max and Medea from Hurricane City.

"Truly worthy of being a top-tier boss at the beginner level, the T-800's strength is indeed remarkable, making it the ideal summoned creature!" Medea's partially covered face showed a smile as she turned to the fat Max and said, "Do you have the confidence to take it down?"

Max clenched his fists and snorted disdainfully, "Just a piece of metal, even if it's enhanced by the T-virus, so what? It's still just a brute. Don't worry, I'll take care of it easily!" As he spoke, Max's muscles bulged, and he charged at the Terminator.

The T-800 would not be provoked or scared. Facing the charging enemy, its only reaction was to counterattack. The T-800 raised a shotgun and fired at Max, but Max did not dodge or evade, protecting his head with his hands as the iron pellets hit his body. He pounced in front of the T-800, grabbed its shoulder, and lifted the nearly 800-pound robot, throwing it to the ground with a shoulder throw! With a loud boom, the entire first floor shook, and many floorboards were loosened and lifted.

The T-800 reached out to grab Max to counterattack but could not budge the fat man's thick arms. Instead, Max lifted the T-800 and threw it again! If an adventurer with energy skills had used energy vision to look at Max, they would have seen a faint golden glow on the fat man's body, a sign of the activation of a reinforcement-type psychic ability!

Sun Wenxing's data was from the previous world. After the rewards and enhancements from the world, Max's strength had already broken 70 points. With the activation of the reinforcement-type psychic ability, he could almost exert the equivalent of 100 points of strength. In a preemptive strike, dealing with a Terminator with only 90 points of strength was naturally not a problem! Taking advantage of this momentum, Max swung the Terminator around, smashing it horizontally and vertically, as if trying to tear it apart into pieces!

However, after a few swings, Max suddenly realized something was wrong. His arm, which the Terminator was holding, began to feel a sharp pain. He ignored it and continued the shoulder throw, but the T-800 in his hands suddenly felt much harder and heavier. Max looked down and saw that under the Terminator's tattered clothes, its skin had turned into hard, thick, keratinous muscle, and its hands had transformed into large, sharp claws, with the tips deeply embedded in Max's flesh!

The Terminator, no, this should be a Tyrant Terminator, had finally unleashed its full power!
