​"Scream and hit absolutely anything around you, Rex! Draw this killing machine's attention away from me right this instant!"​Zac bellowed the command, his voice thundering over the heavy, ragged breathing of the giant mutant. The genius doctor's back was pressed tightly against the severely cracked concrete wall. He desperately needed a few crucial seconds to shift his position toward the corner near the vault doors. That was exactly where the six highly pressurized oxygen tanks stood waiting for the touch of his lethal concoction.​Rex widened his eyes from the pitch-black end of the corridor. The scrawny mechanic's face turned deathly pale, fully realizing that obeying the command was functionally equivalent to inviting the grim reaper directly toward him. His fierce loyalty to Zac waged a brutal war against the pure, unadulterated terror squeezing his chest.​"Hey, you incredibly ugly, eyeless freak!" Rex shrieked hysterically, snatching up his completely empty assault rifle from

​"Get out of the way, Mr. Zac!"​Rex's shriek echoed violently, shattering the stifling air of the underground corridor. The scrawny mechanic's vocal cords were nearly ripped apart by the sheer magnitude of his absolute panic.​The half-ton concrete pillar plummeted rapidly from the air. The giant mutant forcefully swung the massive chunk of cement directly toward Zac's head. Death was literally inches away. The shadow of the massive pillar completely eclipsed the dim red emergency lights illuminating the corridor.​Zac ruthlessly forced the muscles in his right leg to absolutely reject surrender to the agonizing pain. He violently threw his body sideways, rolling rapidly across the ceramic floor, which was heavily slicked with a massive puddle of filthy blood.​The concrete pillar slammed brutally into the floor exactly where Zac had been positioned a mere fraction of a second earlier.​A localized explosion of cement erupted instantaneously.

"Sprint to the corner of this corridor right this instant, Vance! That creature will crush your body into powder!"​Zac shouted loudly, violently shoving the technician's shoulders backward. The red emergency lights blinked blindingly, projecting highly terrifying silhouettes directly in front of the main vault doors. A giant mutant, standing exactly four meters tall, formidably blocked their one and only avenue toward Zac's neural salvation.​The creature's skin no longer remotely resembled mammalian muscle tissue. The absolute entirety of its body was heavily encased in thick bone plates, perfectly functioning as a suit of natural biological armor. Its two massive arms terminated in heavy, solid bone clubs the exact size of river boulders. The incredibly putrid stench of sulfur heavily mixed with acidic stomach fluids aggressively assaulted their noses, wafting intensely from its completely eyeless jaw. A heavy steel chain, exactly as thick as a human arm, was secure

​"Turn off your flashlight right this instant, Vance. You are only providing a free target for their bullets."​Zac issued the command in a voice incredibly low, yet razor-sharp. He halted his steps exactly at the threshold of the subterranean corridor entrance. Pitch-black darkness completely enveloped the concrete tunnel stretching out before him. The highly pungent stench of formaldehyde preservatives heavily mixed with raw ammonia aggressively assaulted the air, entirely poisoning the air circulation of the Scorpion clan's secret facility.​Vance hastily clicked the button on his flashlight. The harsh white beam vanished instantly. "This corridor is entirely too dark, Mr. Zac. We could easily trigger infrared landmines or hidden motion sensors. Walking completely blind without any illumination is functionally equivalent to committing suicide."​"Walking around utilizing a light source directly inside an enemy's lair is the action of a complete fool." Zac lowered his posture, creep

​"Get out of this cab right now, Vance! Move before they completely blow our fuel tank to kingdom come!"​Zac issued the absolute command, violently kicking the heavily dented truck door until it completely snapped off its hinges.​The armored vehicle's windshield had entirely shattered into a million pieces. Thick cement dust billowed wildly, heavily blanketing the driver's cabin as a direct result of the brutal frontal collision. Vance coughed violently, frantically fumbling with his seatbelt with incredibly trembling hands. Live, armor-piercing rounds immediately began raining heavily down upon the truck's outer hull, generating a truly deafening, continuous clatter of striking metal.​[Absolute maximum threat level warning. Three heavy machine gun emplacements are actively detected within the inner courtyard. The sheer penetrative power of the fifty-millimeter caliber projectiles will entirely obliterate the truck's armored plating within exactly sixty seconds.]​The system's mech

​Zac violently slammed the blood-soaked surgical forceps down onto the steel floor of the truck bed. The sharp clatter of metal rang out deafeningly, violently shattering the suffocating air inside the cargo hold.​His left hand trembled wildly, completely refusing to obey a single command from his genius brain. The flexor muscles in his arm spasmed violently, generating a searing pain exactly like a red-hot knife slicing aggressively along his entire nerve network. Zac took a heavy step backward, leaning his spine tightly against the truck wall, his breathing ragged and shallow.​"Mr. Zac, the blood will absolutely not stop flowing!" Rex shrieked hysterically, pressing both of his hands fiercely onto Professor Driscoll's back. "He is losing way too much blood! His face is already as white as cotton!"​"Shut your mouth, Rex!" Zac barked furiously, aggressively gripping his left wrist with his functional right hand using absolutely all of his strength. "I am trying to regain control ov
