Haru and I returned to his office. Since the others are busy at the moment and some are resting after the deadly battle earlier, the meeting only composed of me and Haru at the moment. Well, I can still do have the knowledge of the enemies despite the fact that I am not the one researching those guys. Just like earlier, Haru pulls out the projector and connected his laptop in there.

”This is a file I gathered when I tried hacking the systems of a laboratory somewhere here in Osaka. I don’t know what they are doing but they were indeed doing something worse which made me think that it was a similar account on the Behemoth. From what I gathered, the mutated person who was exposed to the virus became a bit similar to the Behemoth who turned similar to jelly. The only mutation that varied him and the behemoth is the fact that he was immediately killed before he can transform into one that is similar to the behemoth.”

After he said that, he showed me a presentation video on his laptop.

”This video is one of the files I managed to hack. It was a bit secured so I had a hard time hacking it but with a few codes here and there, I managed to steal the data and put it on my usb drive. I know that I might get hacked sooner or later so I used that method to hide it immediately.”

”Wait, you managed to hack that place too? Are you saying that the laboratory managed to make a first similar style to the behemoth before they terminated it?” I was surprised. Looks like Nanami missed some info from that website they hacked with her hacker friends.

”Do you know something about it?” Haru asked.

”Yeah, Nanami managed to hack the website of the underground laboratory that you mentioned of. We managed to gather a few of the research of the Virus and due to that, we knew that the name of the Virus is Virus Galea. We never thought that we missed a great detail about it.”

”I see. Well, the event occurred before the outbreak. Well, they managed to kill the guy before he turned out unkillable but he was not killed by a bullet in the head like the traditional one,” Haru revealed.

”What? He was not killed by a bullet?” I was taken aback. The only enemies who fell under that kind of trait are the blob monsters that I killed by using a flamethrower.

”Its hard to explain but we could watch the video so that you would see it for yourself,” Haru sighed and clicked his remote. The video on the projector moved and started playing.

In the video is a man being attended by a few people wearing a lab coats outside the room and a few more people wearing hazmat suits(1) are within the chamber where the man who was being used as the lab rat was in. The man was clearly against the experiment as he thrashed about and he was being secured by the people in Hazmat suit and they seemed to be trying to contain him. The video has no sound so I have no idea what he was shouting in.

From the video’s perspective, it was clear that it was in first person view of the video. Its not a third person documentary that is usually done in most documentary videos. In this one, it was clear that the person capturing the video is someone who is closely acquainted with the other scientists. Possibly, a scientist itself.

The video was shaking a bit so the features of the scientists were either blurry or hard to distinguish due to the movements. But it was clear that the person capturing the video is someone who is a scientist because there was a slight glimpse of his hand shown earlier and he was shown to wear a gloves. Although it was understandable to wear protective suits after entering a lab, it would be too hard to enter a top secret area and film the place like nothing. Its not something you can easily do if you are a freelance writer unless you are similar to Frank West(2) who seeks news only to move to an outbreak area and have fun killing the dead in there.

The video continued a bit and the one capturing the video focused capturing the event of the guy thrashing about. The guy was saying something but it was inaudible and cannot be easily done with lip-reading because of the blurs. But not long after that, the situation became violent as the people in the hazmat suits started punching and slamming the man on any hard object in the room. No one stopped this despite the bleeding forehead of the guy became more apparent. The guy, is still conscious and I can see that he was clearly gritting his teeth in anger.

Maybe due to the blood leaving his forehead, he was finally strapped to the bed and he was somewhat injected with something which is presumably, the Virus Galea. The man who was strapped stopped struggling before he suddenly grew more dangerous and shakes his shackles and the strap off forcefully to the point that the process he was doing it made his skin peel out from his body and blood flows out.

The people in Hazmat Suit quickly vacated the place, leaving the guy trying to rampage. Just like how the usual undead ravages, it was same from the guy but soon enough, his body seems to be melting and his skin seems to peel off. It was like he was forming into a melted plastic but he still retains the form of the human shape. Soon enough, his arms melted the shackles and the straps snapped off.

The person capturing the video looked at the scientist beside him and nodded. The scientist bowed and clicked a button. Before I knew it, the guy was shot into the head. The man fall but he stood up again. This made the person panicked but somehow, the person using the camera did not and silently took over the control and clicked on two buttons labeled electrocution and burning.
