Chapter 129
"Ah..."
Doctor Saitele was startled by this sudden turn of events, and after realizing what was happening, she let out an instinctive scream.
"Stop screaming, come and help!"
Behind the door, Sun Cheng was using almost every ounce of his strength to block it.
Because he didn't even dare to relax his breathing, fearing that if he let out a single breath, the beast outside the door would ram the door open and charge in, his face had already turned beet red from the strain.
Doctor Saitele finally realized what was happening and hurried over to help him block the door.
Sun Cheng's face was twisted in a grimace, and after dodging the sharp fangs that tried to bite his face again, he roared, "Shoot it, hit it!"
A few centimeters from his cheek was the pungent, fishy stench; the one ramming the door was indeed a Velociraptor. The beast's strength was truly not small; he was using almost every ounce of his strength to hold the door, yet the gap was still widening bit by bit with each of its impacts.
At first, the Velociraptor outside could only force its claws in, but now it could stick half its head inside to snap wildly.
Sun Cheng and the others had truly underestimated the intelligence of these beasts. Major Daqi had ordered traps to be set at the entrance of the Research Center, but who would have thought these beasts would not come in through the main entrance again.
Just looking at the grass-green bloodstains left on its claws and face, it wasn't hard to tell that these creatures with keen senses must have discovered the corpse of the Ghost Hunter he had pushed out from the restroom earlier, and subsequently snuck back into the Research Center through the restroom window!
The ramming force of this Velociraptor was simply too great, far beyond what a Normal Mode person like Sun Cheng, who hadn't received much training, could withstand, and the gap in the door was still widening bit by bit.
After being nearly bitten by the Velociraptor's head, which had suddenly extended through the gap in the door, Saitele finally reacted, raised the weapon in her hand in a panic, and fired a burst of shots at the Velociraptor.
"Da-da-da... da-da-da..."
"Hiss—"
Taking a row of bullets to the head, the Velociraptor hesitated slightly from the pain and pulled its head back a little.
Sun Cheng was waiting for this exact moment; he let out a loud roar to brace himself, exerted force from his waist, legs, and back all at once, slammed the office door shut, and nimbly locked it!
"Almost lost my life there..."
Panting heavily, Sun Cheng felt a lingering fear.
He glanced at Saitele and couldn't help but feel a bit grateful for the gun culture of the United States. Having faced it directly, he could see clearly that although Doctor Saitele was a bit flustered, her gun-handling, shooting angle, and so on were all much more proficient than his own; it was clear she had handled guns plenty of times, and was just a bit panicked when things happened.
Just as he finished his thought, a violent crashing sound came from the office door behind him again. After a loud bang, a dent appeared on the alloy door from the immense impact.
The expressions of Sun Cheng and Doctor Saitele changed in unison, "Quick, you come to the door and hold it for me for a moment, I'm going to move a desk over to block it!"
"Oh... oh..."
With Doctor Saitele now holding the door, Sun Cheng hurried to a desk, pulled and dragged it to the door, and together with Doctor Saitele, blocked it behind the door.
"No, this thing is too light..."
Seeing that a hundred-pound desk blocking the door had no effect, Sun Cheng was just about to go move another desk when he suddenly heard a violent explosion and gunfire from somewhere in the Research Center. Needless to say, Major Daqi and his team must have run into someone.
"Not good! We can't delay here any longer!"
Although the Ghost is the lowliest existence among the Hunter race, this barbaric civilization that has developed to the space age is far superior to Earth. The Ghost is equipped with an Optical Stealth Net, and although it only has cold weapons, its combat power is definitely not to be underestimated; it will be very difficult for Major Daqi and his team to get the better of it.
And once Major Daqi is completely hunted by the Ghost, its next target will definitely be them, the survivors.
Although Sun Cheng has the protection of Revenge to easily kill it, he cannot let the Ghost kill another person, otherwise, according to the Hunter coming-of-age ritual rules, the third Ghost, who is still wandering somewhere on the island, could return to the spaceship to equip an Energy Weapon. If it really reached that point, it wouldn't be something Revenge could easily handle.
His eyes couldn't help but look toward the window. Sun Cheng gritted his teeth, walked straight to the window, stepped on a stool, and climbed up, "Let's go, we have to leave here..." After saying that, he jumped out of the window.
Doctor Saitele hurriedly followed him and jumped out as well. After closing the window, Sun Cheng grabbed her hand and asked hurriedly, "Do you know where the Garage is?"
"I know, it's not far from here..."
Doctor Saitele's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly, "Follow me..."
The two had just run more than ten meters away when they suddenly heard a violent crashing sound from behind. Their hearts sank, both knowing that the office door had still been rammed open by that Velociraptor.
"Run..."
Velociraptors have a keen sense of smell and are the most vengeful.
Not to mention the many bullets they fired at it while blocking the door, just the fact that it had been locked in a narrow cage ever since being hatched by International Genetic Technologies was probably enough to make this ferocious ancient beast hate humans to the core, and it would not let them go easily.
Sure enough, the two had only run a little further forward when a vague sound of shattering glass came from behind.
"How much further?"
Sun Cheng had never been to the Garage and really didn't know where it was.
Fortunately, Doctor Saitele led the way, and not long after turning a corner, he saw the silhouettes of several open-top off-road vehicles.
"We're here..."
Saitele was the first to jump into an off-road vehicle and started rummaging for the keys.
Sun Cheng felt a jolt in his chest, hurriedly hid behind a vehicle, raised his camera to look, and after patrolling the vicinity for a while, walked into the Garage inside.
"Sun, where are you going?"
"Come here..."
Sun Cheng quickly found the Humvee inside the Garage, pulled the door open, sat in the driver's seat, and waved for her to come over.
No one noticed that an ultra-thin laptop was sitting under the driver's seat.
There was no key in this Humvee either. Sun Cheng was frowning as he touched the keyhole when he suddenly saw a long alloy arm reach out from under the driver's seat, gently insert and twist into the keyhole, and the car's engine started immediately.
"Boom... boom..."
The roaring engine sound was a better answer than anything else. As soon as Doctor Saitele heard the car's engine, she didn't say another word, jumped down from the open-top off-road vehicle outside, and rushed straight over here.
Sun Cheng opened the passenger door for her and was about to wait for her to get in before driving out, but he never expected Doctor Saitele, who was outside the Garage, to suddenly let out a scream.
Instinctively looking up in the direction of the sound, Sun Cheng's face sank.
Outside the Garage, a few meters behind Doctor Saitele, a Velociraptor suddenly lunged out, vaulted over an open-top off-road vehicle, and charged toward her with its back arched.

Starting tomorrow, I will make up for the missed updates!
