Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Die Together
After entering the underground base, Alex did not rush to see Dr. Manhattan. Instead, he used the excuse that he needed to change clothes and took the time to go to several different places, such as the toilet, locker room, dormitory, and kitchen.
And every time he arrived at a place, he would take out a pre-hidden miniature nuclear bomb from his own flesh and blood, and hide them in places that ordinary people could hardly detect.
According to his memory, the underground research institute covers an area of several thousand square meters, and a miniature nuclear bomb alone is not enough to completely destroy everything here.
Although the high temperature generated by the explosion can basically kill most humans, it is better to install a few more just in case.
In order to make it difficult for others to detect the hidden weapons, Alex even flushed the smallest micro-nuclear bomb into the sewer.
If you want to find it, you have to dig up the pit.
But he didn't dawdle for too long. Dr. Manhattan was not a good-tempered person. If he waited too long, it would definitely arouse his suspicion.
After setting up the micro-nuclear bomb, Alex took a deep breath and looked in a mirror, adjusting his expression to Wilson's slightly stiff expression.
Then he followed the route he remembered and walked towards Dr. Manhattan's office. He was finally going to see the bastard who had destroyed his family again.
No matter what, this bastard is dead today. He brought so many nuclear bombs this time and has made the worst-case plan of dying together with Manhattan.
"You should know how valuable my time is."
Under a nuclear explosion, all beings are equal.
The movement in the office also attracted the attention of the guards outside.
As the biggest contributor to this operation, they must confirm Alex's life or death and bring this human hero back to the Human Union as much as possible.
Of course, his proposal was severely rejected by Pruitt. However, after Alex threatened Dr. Manhattan's life, severely tortured the dying old man, and agreed to let a team of 100 elite soldiers escort him, Dr. Pruitt reluctantly agreed to Alex's request.
Although the gate was surrounded by Masonic soldiers, he was more afraid of the miniature nuclear bombs hidden in the underground base than the ordinary firearms outside.
After working for more than ten minutes and still finding nothing, Jesus had to command his soldiers to use the most primitive method.
The usually high-handed chief scientist had never experienced such pain. His eyes, which always showed a harsh look, bulged out, his pupils were instantly filled with bloodshot, and his whole body was trembling. Even when Alex pinched his throat, he could not hide his painful wails.
In just one or two seconds, without giving anyone in the base any chance to react, the ground above the underground research institute collapsed completely, and at the cracks of the collapse, countless scorching flames instantly engulfed everything in the base.
Just when they had been searching for nearly an hour and were about to give up, a life form made up of black tentacles struggled to crawl out of the mud.
Of course, if the plan went well, he wouldn't have to die.
Hearing this, Dr. Pruitt squinted his eyes to examine Alex's expression, then looked at Dr. Manhattan, who was lying in his arms, with his limbs broken, incontinent, and already dying.
However, before he could react, Alex, who was standing in front of him, appeared beside him in an instant, and his right hand grabbed his throat like a steel claw, lifted his body slightly, and controlled it directly in his hand.
Alex had no sympathy for this old bastard. With a hint of satisfaction on his face, he grabbed the old man's arms with his left hand and twisted them hard, breaking them in half. Broken bones came out of his arms, and the flesh on his arms was crushed into meat paste due to the huge force.
Even halfway through, Alex asked Dr. Pruitt to take the precious alien life meteorite with him on the grounds that the underground research institute was no longer safe.
Entering the office, looking at Wilson played by Alex in front of him, Dr. Manhattan still had no good expression on his face. He stared at Alex with his gloomy eyes and said in a flat tone:
"Has your insignificant victory made you arrogant?"
And these soldiers who are in charge of guarding will definitely be severely punished. Now is the end of the world, there is no legal constraint, and people who make mistakes are likely to lose their lives.
"Mr. Alex, if you are buried, please give us some signals if possible."
It is precisely because of Manhattan's crazy ambition that tempted those bigwigs in power that the world has become what it is today.
Amid the roars, fear, surprise, or dazed expressions of Dr. Pruitt and the other soldiers, Alex turned into a ball of black tentacles and instantly devoured Dr. Manhattan's flesh and blood into his body.
They searched and shouted, and almost walked through the entire ruins, but unfortunately, still without any results.
After confirming that the old man in front of him was really the Dr. Manhattan in his memory, and not a substitute or a clone, Alex could no longer suppress the intense anger and hatred in his heart.
They turned on the small speakers equipped on their power armor and shouted loudly while searching:
"Mr. Alex, where are you?"
All the Freemasons were either vaporized directly in the explosion or died in the huge shock wave.
At the same time, the remote control buried in Alex's body was triggered by him. Eight of the largest-sized micro-nuclear bombs exploded instantly, turning into torches as big as the sun, instantly evaporating all objects around them.
In just a dozen seconds, this chief scientist who held one of the highest positions in Freemasonry was turned into a cripple with all his limbs paralyzed in his hands.
Ten minutes later, the dust settled. The largest Masonic base was left with only a huge dirt pit after the explosion of eight miniature nuclear bombs. All the buildings, including the underground base, had disappeared.
Not only can these nuclear bombs be remotely and manually controlled to explode, they also have a one-hour timer set inside them to explode. Once activated, they cannot be stopped. Even if someone can open the outer shell of the micro-nuclear bomb, it will only cause the nuclear bomb to explode prematurely.
Noticing the change in Alex's attitude, Dr. Manhattan's expression changed slightly, and he seemed to have some doubts about the person in front of him.
The blockage of air made the old man, who was nearly sixty years old, turn pale, and then the pain of suffocation turned his face purple.
Before anyone could react, he had inserted his hands into Dr. Manhattan's chest.
Seeing that Manhattan's legs were kicking harder in pain, Alex showed a cruel smile and kicked Manhattan's knee mercilessly, directly comminuted the old man's legs and made him completely unable to move.
After waiting for a few minutes, until Dr. Manhattan's deputy, Dr. Pruitt, arrived at the office, Alex spoke to him:
"Dr. Pruitt, I got the news that Dr. Manhattan has betrayed our Freemasonry. The bases we lost recently were all due to this bastard's betrayal."
Alex, disguised as Wilson, nodded and said to Pruitt:
"I'm going to take him to see General Caspian. Once we're in front of the general, we'll have a formal trial meeting."
Pruitt frowned when he heard this. Within the Freemasonry, General Caspian was Dr. Manhattan's rival, and the two often disagreed and had conflicts. Now that Wilson had kidnapped Dr. Manhattan, he was somewhat suspicious that this might be General Caspian's conspiracy.
The appearance of this life form was extremely horrifying. Its entire body was charred, with mud and flesh stuck to it. Only a bare skull was left on its head, and its limbs were all torn off. It was impossible to identify its identity from its appearance.
Facing the gun, Alex's expression did not change at all, and he still looked like Wilson, so no one, including the guards, would have thought about why the most loyal captain in the base would treat his superior like this.
A few minutes later, after bypassing layer upon layer of security, Alex finally met the old man in a luxurious office.
Alex breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the alloy metal door, which was several meters thick, being slowly lifted up.
Alex looked up at him and just hummed lightly without saying anything else.
His hands involuntarily grabbed Alex's arms, and he kicked his legs wildly, trying his best to pull away the arm that was pinching his throat.
However, Dr. Manhattan is the most important chief scientist for the entire Freemasonry. As long as he is in the hands of the Freemasonry, no senior official will choose to kill him.
Everyone, including Dr. Pruitt at the entrance of the underground base, was turned into dust in the flames and explosion.
"What do you want to do, Wilson?"
Even if they didn't die instantly, there was no way they could survive the hot radioactive dust.
Taking this into consideration, Pruitt chose not to provoke Wilson for the time being. He believed that Wilson must have been bewitched by other high-ranking Freemasons to do such a thing.
Although the power armor on their bodies protected Jesus and others from the surrounding radiation and high temperatures, they were also unable to determine Alex's location due to the interference of the strong radiation.
However, this old man holds the highest status and power in Freemasonry and is the best shield at any time.
Several guards with weapons immediately rushed in alertly, and when they saw the miserable state of Dr. Manhattan, fear and anger immediately covered their faces. They clenched their weapons and shouted hysterically:
"Wilson, what are you doing? Let go of Dr. Manhattan."
This was a major victory worthy of being recorded in history, and they succeeded in dealing a heavy blow to Freemasonry.
As for Dr. Manhattan who is now being tortured to death, it is nothing. With the current zombie technology, as long as the person is not dead, it is easy to cure him. At most, he will become infected with the zombie virus.
Now the old man was only four or five meters away from him. With his speed, unless Manhattan could teleport, he would never be able to escape.
In fact, if it weren't for the chance to escape from the underground base and avoid being killed by the power of the nuclear bomb explosion, Alex would never have controlled Manhattan in this way, but would have directly missed him into pieces.
Along with the gushing blood, countless black tentacles emerged from all over his body, and in just one second, they wrapped up Dr. Manhattan.
Dr. Manhattan seemed to be confused by what was happening in front of him when his throat was strangled by Alex.
Alex smiled coldly. Under the roaring firepower of the soldiers, he showed his true appearance to everyone, and then fled along the outer wall of the underground base at his fastest speed towards the outside of the base.
And because of the special way the soil was buried underground this time, a huge amount of soil was swept into the sky by the explosion. They formed large patches of dark clouds, blocking out the sunlight in the sky and severely reducing the visibility here, almost to the point where you can't see your hand in front of you.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that given Dr. Manhattan's current condition, even if he was rescued, he would probably only be half alive.
So, Dr. Pruitt thought for a few seconds and asked tentatively:
He has a bald scalp, a gloomy face, and wears a pair of plain myopic glasses. His harsh eyes always show a kind of contempt for human life, as if ordinary people are not of the same species as him.
Alex coldly dragged Dr. Manhattan, who looked like a dead man, out of the metal gate, then turned around and gave Dr. Pruitt a weird smile.
Looking at the soldiers outside the underground base who were staring at him, and Dr. Pruitt who was following behind him with a gloomy face.
"I have to hand it over to other senior executives now."
He knew very well that Dr. Manhattan could not betray the Freemasons. After all, he was one of the most important leaders of the Freemasons. How could someone betray himself?
However, as the second-in-command of this secret research institute and a member of the same faction as Dr. Manhattan, he must save Dr. Manhattan's life. This is also for his own sake.
"Captain Wilson, you made me wait for ten minutes for nothing."
It was the only thing they could do for Alex.
In the abdomen of this strange life form, a purple crystal meteorite the size of a watermelon was firmly clamped by his muscles, emitting a strange glow.
"Even if Dr. Manhattan betrayed us, we still need to go through a formal interrogation. We can't just believe your one-sided statement."
By the time they finally arrived at the exit of the underground laboratory, nearly forty minutes had passed.
Just like that, when the top leader Dr. Manhattan was almost in a coma, Alex took Manhattan hostage and, accompanied by Dr. Pruitt, walked out of the underground research institute located hundreds of meters underground.
But even so, in this dangerous environment, Jesus still rushed over with the members of the Sting Squad as quickly as possible and entered the radioactive ruins without hesitation.
His actions instantly drove everyone around him crazy. No one cared about anything else anymore. They picked up their weapons and attacked with roars.
However, after seeing this strange life form, Jesus and others did not hesitate at all. They immediately took out a large ball of clean cloth, wrapped it in it, and took him away from the ruins.
There's so much commotion here, if they don't leave now, they will definitely be caught by other Masonic forces.
As for that strange life form, now on the entire earth, except for Alex, there is no other creature with such powerful vitality.
