In the staircase leading to the underground morgue.
Sully hurriedly put on her white coat for work and rushed down the stairs.
Her tone was full of apology:
“Ah, sorry, Jarvis. I just received a temporary order from Division Intelligence
Unit Three, so I have to go to the underground morgue to supervise the work.”
“It’s alright, Sully, I understand.”
Noland Lee followed closely behind her, holding her arm to prevent her from falling down the stairs in her haste.
Noisy sounds came from a far distance below, echoing in the stairwell.
Noland listened carefully, and it seemed like there were a lot of people gathered there.
Sully stopped, leaned on the stair railing on the second floor, looked downstairs, and shouted, waving her arm:
“Yog, Yog, has the Vidas Army Military Officer arrived?”
A weak shout came from below.
It was evident that the person shouting had used all their strength:
“Yes, Sully. They’ve brought all the corpses that need to be stored. Come quickly, we’re waiting for you.”
“Alright, I’m coming right now.” Sully immediately sped up her pace.
Noland looked straight ahead, not asking about the details, content to be just an observer.
About 1 minute later, Noland followed Sully into the cold first underground level.
There was dim light and dry air, filled with the strong smell of disinfectant and preservatives.
Noland saw the crowded scene in here.
Dozens of corpses sealed in body bags filled the entire walkway, leaving no space to step on.
Listening to the conversation between Sully and the Vidas Army Military Officer, Noland gradually understood the situation.
As a veteran army within the Korabo Legion, the Vidas Army was powerful.
During Noland’s vacation, this army was suppressing a joint rebellion between Grave Vaults 612, 613, and 614.
After the rebellion of these three vaults was quelled, Vaults 615 to 700 successively experienced outbreaks.
The army responsible for defending these vaults had all been sent into battle, with the Vidas Army as their leader.
The enemies they encountered were ruthless, fierce, and difficult to track.
In just the few days Noland was hospitalized, at least 50 Military Officers were sent to the Medical Department for emergency treatment, with shattered intestines and rotting internal organs, dying in a horrible state.
This situation persisted even until now without any improvement.
The morgue was constantly clearing and refilling corpses, always remaining full.
What kind of enemy could cause such injuries?
This question was precisely what Division Intelligence Unit Three wanted to investigate.
All corpses with such injuries were sent to Division Intelligence Unit Three’s laboratory, and only when there was no more space were they moved to the morgue for temporary storage.
According to the Vidas Army Military Officer:
Many soldiers were attacked by unidentified undead troops, leaving no corpses behind.
Reinforcement squads only found blood and pieces of flesh at the attack site.
Those corpses in body bags, like the ones in front of Noland, belonged to the category of better-preserved bodies.
The Korabo Legion backed the Vidas Army.
Behind Korabo Legion was Intelligence Department 4.
The demand of Intelligence Department 4 was simple: for Division Intelligence Unit Three to quickly investigate and find all the information on the unknown undead troops and effective ways to restrain them.
The update and iteration of undead troops were rapid.
.Transparently lacking in morality, humanity, and the constraints of human social laws, death-type magic had no taboos while creating undead creatures.
Death Priests were unscrupulous in achieving their goals, trying every combination they could conceive.
When a new kind of undead troop excelled in actual combat, it would quickly spread from a few vaults to all other vaults.
It was conservatively estimated that this process would take no more than half a month.
In other words, Division Intelligence Unit Three had to complete the investigation of unknown undead troops within half a month, starting from the joint rebellion of the three vaults.
Even a day’s delay would trigger a chain reaction.
At the very least, lieutenants would fall, or vaults would be completely lost,
becoming areas occupied by the Undead Cult.
With time pressing and tasks heavy, the primary participant would be extremely busy.
Sully took out her notebook for recording the names and numbers of corpses and directed soldiers to clear the corpse cabinet, making room for more.
The good news was that she was only a head nurse, not in charge of follow-up research.
After finishing the task of rearranging corpse cabinets, her overtime work for the day would be over.
Half an hour later, Sully was speaking with a dry mouth.
Noland went upstairs and got a cup of water in a disposable paper cup.
Sully drank the warm water Noland brought while directing the soldiers, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at Noland.
She whispered gently:
“It’ll be done soon, Jarvis. Once the soldiers finish sorting the third-layer corpse cabinet, we can leave.”
“Alright, Sully.” Noland glanced to see a soldier walking out of the cold morgue.
“Sully, there are two corpses of Sin Soldiers in the third-layer corpse cabinet. Should we also move them out and throw them into the incinerator?”
Sully waved her hand:
“No, soldier. Someone will come for those two corpses.”
“Oh, okay, it’s rare for someone to collect the bodies of Sin Soldiers.” The soldier muttered, picked up the body bag on the ground, and went back into the morgue..
