The Battle of Zerg 2

The ten soldiers moved out of the room they were in before and moved to the entrance of the bunker. Although the zerg went into this bunker but from the direction of the arrival of this zerg they can make sure that they did not come from the entrance they passed but likely have been in one of the places in the bunker this or any other entrance leads to this bunker.

The soldiers moved quickly, even as they used mechanical armor that strengthened the performance of their bodies making them move quickly leaving the zergs behind. After a few minutes of running while shooting at some zergs that appeared from the front finally the soldiers reached the bunker entrance and immediately exited the bunker and then closed the bunker door tightly. A few seconds after the bunker door was closed, several sounds of impact and the sound of iron rubbing was heard from inside the bunker, although the thickness of the iron door that became the entrance of the bunker was very thick, when they heard the sound of the sound still made them uncomfortable and worried that the bunker door would be knocked down in the next second.

"Let's get out of here, sooner or later the bunker doors will be broken down by these zergs" one of the soldiers said.

The others nodded and said "That's right, the zerg senses are so sensitive that even if they can't break into the bunker doors they will definitely find another way and come here"

Finally the soldiers could only run to avoid the zergs, they had no other way because the number of zergs was so many and like endless while their number was only ten people and supplies were limited. In the research room of the VR device Dimas who saw the actions of the soldiers let out a long sigh, the actions of those who continued to flee like this left him a little disappointed. If all their soldiers were like this where when pressed they would escape this could be considered defeat, if in the real world there are a bunch of zerg who attack the shelter but because the defeat of the number makes the soldiers flee then they have sacrificed the lives of many people for their safety.

"Sempathize, raise the zerg level to level 3" Dimas said to the Sempati artificial intelligence governing the virtual world.

"Level zerg upgraded to level 3" The male voice came from the loudspeakers in the study room.

Other scientists who also participated in researching the VR device were surprised by what Dimas did, even though it was just a virtual world and not the real world but what Dimas did was still too extreme. A level 2 zerg was four times stronger than the level 1 zerg they had previously fought against whereas a level 3 zerg was four times the strength of a level 2 zerg, he said, so you could say a level 3 zerg was sixteen times stronger than a level 1 zerg, though, although electromagnetic weapons can still kill them easily, the current zerg will be more difficult to aim at because its speed also increases.

"Professor Dimas, why raise the zerg level suddenly?! This would kill the characters of the soldiers" One of the scientists said frantically to Dimas.

You could say that Dimas who raised the zerg level suddenly had the intention of letting them die in this virtual world. Although the task that Dimas gave them was to survive as long as possible, the purpose of this test was to let these soldiers die so as to understand for themselves the horrors of the zerg. The simulated pain setting is 100% where the pain is the same as in the real world, this means that if these soldiers die then even though their bodies do not die, they will still feel the taste of death at that time.

Dimas looked towards the ten soldiers who were constantly running on top of that VR device, this time their movements were smoother than the moment before they reached the bunker, this is because in the virtual world they wear mechanical armor that helps them move quickly even though the blizzard is still ongoing. Even though they moved faster but before that Dimas had already ordered Sempati to raise the zerg level to level 3 making all zerg increase in size and all aspects, as well as all zergs, their strength and speed increased so that the zergs previously abandoned at great distances by the soldiers began to shorten the distance quickly.

"The Zerg behind us is accelerating, what should we do now?" one of the soldiers saw the zerg horde behind begin to shorten the distance said anxiously to the others.

The others immediately noticed it and were as anxious as the first soldiers saw it, they sped up their run but the distance remained shortened quickly. Not until 1 minute they ran, the zerg was already right behind them and the ten soldiers had to block these zergs from continuing to approach by shooting at them using electromagnetic weapons.

"Why did this zerg become bigger than before? They were also faster and their skin became harder so electromagnetic weapons no longer instantly killed them?" The soldiers asked with confused and panicked feelings mixed into one.

One of the zerg that was at the front jumped forward and managed to drop one of the soldiers who were at the back, the army fell and was immediately surrounded by many zergs around it, the soldier panicked and immediately shot desperately in a random direction but due to the overwhelming number of zerg the soldier was immediately overwhelmed and the electromagnetic weapon slipped out of his hand. Bites and scratches were immediately carried out by these zergs, although the soldier used mechanical armor, the claws and jaws of the zerg that could even penetrate the bunker door could easily destroy the mechanical armor made of only a thin titanium alloy. The soldier was quickly torn into pieces, even so quickly he was unable to let out a shout at all.

In the research room of VR devices, the previously dead soldier was divided into sections by a zerg in the virtual world screaming in pain as the nerve sensor outfit he was wearing simulated the pain of every bite and scratch carried out by the zergs in that virtual world. Fortunately when his character in the virtual world completely died all the pain disappeared instantly leaving only the soldier breathing heavily and cold sweat began to drench his body.
