American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

The wind and snow continued relentlessly, the blizzard showed no signs of stopping. The large snowflakes mixed with ice shards were carried by the gale, bombarding the outer walls of the research base and creating a cacophony of dense, piercing sounds.

Professor Yevgeny tightened his robe and turned to pick up his freshly brewed coffee, paying no attention to the irritating noise. He had been working here for over ten years and was well accustomed to the environment.

The name of the research base had changed several times, and the directors had come and gone. However, as a scientist assigned to the base since its establishment, Yevgeny was intimately familiar with everything here, including the subject they had been studying for over a decade.

The subject had crash-landed in a high-tech spaceship within the borders of the nation. Its arrival had caused panic among local residents, but once the military had surrounded and detained it, the incident was suppressed. Everyone involved, except for a few soldiers and scientists, signed confidentiality agreements.

The environment on the tundra was harsh, with constant wind and snow. Even Yevgeny, who was used to the climate, sometimes longed to leave and revisit the bustling city life.

However, sacrifices were necessary for the pursuit of science. Professor Yevgeny had resolutely given up his job and a comfortable family life to stay here and study alien technology.

"Professor, take a break. You have to prepare the report on the alien tomorrow," a young man yawned as he greeted Professor Yevgeny.

"Yes, you go rest," Yevgeny replied, but he remained seated. He knew that the analysis of the alien cells had reached a critical stage, and he wouldn't be able to sleep even if he tried.

The young man was his most outstanding disciple. In this desolate place, it was thanks to this young man's care that the old professor managed. Yevgeny had even considered marrying his daughter to this considerate disciple.

"I'm off to bed. Take care of yourself, Professor," the young man smiled, removed his white coat, and wrapped himself in a blanket before leaving the lab.

Watching his disciple's departing figure, Yevgeny smiled. No matter what, this young man was indeed his pride. Perhaps, in the future, he would take over Yevgeny's mantle.

After a moment of contemplation, Yevgeny took another sip of hot coffee, driving away the cold from his body.

Suddenly, a deafening alarm sounded in the distance. The abrupt noise startled Yevgeny, causing him to drop his coffee, shattering the cup on the floor.

But Yevgeny had no time to worry about it. He looked around in confusion before realizing that this was the military's invasion alarm, an evolved form of the air raid alarm, activated only during a terrorist attack.

The research base was located within a large military fortress, the only protected facility. If the fortress was attacked, the enemy's target was undoubtedly the research base.

Realizing this, Yevgeny quickly left the lab. Before he could take a few steps, the internal alarm of the research base sounded, and the passageway lights turned red, casting an eerie glow.

"How could this happen? The fortress alarm just sounded, and now the base alarm is going off. Could the enemy have breached the fortress defenses so quickly?" Yevgeny was horrified. He returned to his office and retrieved a handgun from the drawer.

At that moment, a squad of heavily armed soldiers rushed past the lab. Yevgeny recognized them as the special unit assigned to protect the lab. Their urgency indicated that the enemy had already infiltrated.

Yevgeny stopped a soldier and asked, "I'm the head of the laboratory. What's happening? Who is the enemy?"

"I don't know. We're still investigating," the soldier replied anxiously. "The commander said the fortress has been breached, and our troops are engaged in combat with the enemy. We're to secure the lab."

Boom! Boom!

Before the soldier could finish, the entire underground lab shook, accompanied by thunderous sounds. Yevgeny immediately recognized it as the sound of heavy artillery, and it was their own military's heavy weapons.

The enemy's firepower must be formidable, forcing the fortress defenders to use their last resort.

"That's the highest-caliber howitzer! What kind of enemy are we facing?" Yevgeny shouted, bewildered. To warrant such firepower, the enemy had to have at least a division's worth of strength. But how could so many enemies approached the base without being noticed.

"I don't know either. Professor, you should evacuate. I have to carry out my orders," the soldier said, gripping his gun tightly, his face tense. He left to rejoin his unit.

Yevgeny knew now wasn't the time for questions. Fighting the enemy was the soldiers' duty, not his. His task was to evacuate with the other professors and researchers.

Running through the lab, Yevgeny saw chaos everywhere. Soldiers were gathering, heading towards the main entrance of the lab. Some researchers, just woken up, hurriedly wrapped in blankets, followed the majority to evacuate.

No one knew what was happening, they only heard the continuous explosions outside the base. The intense, disorderly bombardment reminded Yevgeny of when the military deployed him to weapon testig site.

He gripped his gun tightly, seeking a semblance of security from it.

But soon, a chilling fear crept into his heart, and Yevgeny felt the temperature drop even lower.

Breaking away from the crowd, he ran towards his disciple's dormitory. His only concern now was the safety of his most outstanding disciple, a young man he considered as his own child.

The dormitory was on the second floor above ground. As Yevgeny ascended, he saw the soldiers' stern readiness and felt the battle's intensity more directly.

During the battle, Yevgeny avoided using the elevator, opting to climb the stairs. Reaching the ground floor of the research base, he instinctively moved towards a window, wanting to see the situation outside.

He wanted to know who the invaders were and what enemies the defenders were fighting.

But when he peered out of the window, his wrinkled face contorted in terror, and his eyes widened in shock.

"Zombies!!!"
