Desperate Night

In the blink of an eye, two weeks and fourteen days passed.

At the port of Baihe City, a ship after another slowly left and moved towards the distant sea.

The ship was full of supplies and also full of migrants who migrated away together.

The population of the entire Baihe City was rapidly declining and leaving.

Everyone tried to go to New Aurora City, which was much safer and had much more abundant supplies than here.

In order to cover the migration of the urban population, the elite enhanced team of the joint army began to be sent out to assist the ordinary military team to deal with the dangers approaching the surrounding area.

In the suburbs, outside the wall of an abandoned industrial park.

A fully armed team carrying various guns, knives and explosion-proof shields was standing quietly at the entrance, checking all the equipment on their bodies.

"This mission was assigned from above, and all enhanced teams will participate, and there is no way to shirk it." The team leader Xue Ningning said helplessly.

All teams must be assigned mission areas. Even if she has connections, she can't avoid it at this time. This is an order directly issued by the supreme commander.

"Captain Ning has been very nice. We really can't avoid it this time. I heard that more than a dozen ordinary teams have disappeared. The infection of the language people has spread, and it is difficult for everyone to defend." A middle-aged male team member sighed.

"We are just buying buffer time for the main force to retreat." Another person sneered, "It's just a higher-level abandoned child."

"You can quit." Someone said.

"I don't want to do it a long time ago. What kind of people are in the team. Captain Ning, I mentioned it a long time ago, don't be soft-hearted and lead people, but you just don't listen. Now, the task is coming. With our limited manpower, there are only a few people who can really be useful in the team. What should I do? ”

A young man with a shaved head and the strongest figure said very irritably.

"Tang Xing, the five of you will go in with me, and the rest of you will stay outside." Xue Ningning said helplessly.

This time, there may be an attack by the language people, and there must be no drag in the team. If you are not careful, it may lead to the destruction of the team.

The five people named by her looked very dissatisfied, but they were helpless. They also knew the trouble of the language people.

Among the few people who stayed outside, there were Ou Li, Lin Yiyi, and Chen Qiaosheng.

The three looked at Xue Ningning and his men entering the park with different expressions.

"Captain, will there be any danger?" Lin Yiyi showed a worried look.

"Do you still need to ask such nonsense?" Ou Li said coldly, "Can you stop asking such idiotic questions in the future?"

"Captain Ning has taken care of us for so long, can't he do something?" Chen Qiaosheng sighed.

"You are not satisfied with the opportunity to be lazy?" Ou Li raised his eyebrows.

This is the truth, but Chen Qiaosheng and Lin Yiyi's expressions are completely without a trace of relief and happiness.

"Where is the Silent Army? Why can't we see anyone?" Ou Li asked, "Although we are enhanced people, we are all ordinary people, and our literacy is far worse. Shouldn't this kind of thing against the language people be the time for them to be useful?"

"." No one around replied. In fact, many people thought so in their hearts.

A group of people waited quietly, waiting for the movement in the park.

The fog around them gradually thickened, and even if they were four or five meters apart, they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

More than half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.

Xue Ningning and the others still didn't come out.

Among the remaining team members, a girl with a ponytail took a communicator, opened it gently, and typed in the password.

This was the contact information of the anti-speaker they agreed on.

Da da da, as the knocking sound came out, there was no sound at the other end of the communicator.

The faces of several people changed slightly, and they felt something was wrong.

Bang.

At this moment, a sharp gunshot was heard in the park.

Then, before they could react, they saw a ball of red fire, which completely exploded from the location of a factory in the park.

"It's the location where Team Ning went!!" Chen Qiaosheng couldn't help but lower his voice, his face tense.

Hiss.

The communicator finally had a sound.

"Don't talk, come. A few people to pick us up." Xue Ningning's voice came out. With a hint of weakness, a hint of fatigue and pain.

Obviously she was in trouble.

After hearing Xue Ningning's voice, the six people who stayed behind all changed their expressions.

It's only been a short time since they entered, and even the powerful Ning team was injured and needed help. You can imagine how dangerous the park is.

Everyone hesitated at this time. If they went in, they might encounter great danger.

Didn't everyone join Team 3 just to get an easy job? Isn't it to make themselves safer and avoid danger?

But now.

The ponytail girl holding the communicator was silent, gritted her teeth, and gently put the communicator on the ground and stepped back two steps.

No one came forward to pick it up.

Bang bang bang!

Suddenly, there was another gunshot from the communicator, followed by Xue Ningning's painful groan, and then the sound was cut off. The communication on the other end seemed to be broken.

"." The ponytail girl looked at the others. She was thinking of a reason to leave here quickly.

"Ou Li. I helped you wash your clothes for two months. We are friends, right?" The stuttering Lin Yiyi suddenly spoke and asked her companions.

"I guess so, what's the matter?" Ou Li lowered her voice and replied impatiently. She was also looking for a chance to withdraw.

"If you are a friend, just follow me!"

Snap.

Suddenly, Lin Yiyi grabbed Ou Li's arm with one hand, without waiting for the other party to come back to his senses.

She exerted force under her feet, and she rushed forward. She picked up the communicator, dragged her friend who was caught off guard and rushed into the large iron gate of the park.

"Communicator, I can't, it's up to you."

"Ahhhh!!"

Lin Yiyi's instructions and Ou Li's screams sounded at the same time, and the two of them disappeared into the mist in the blink of an eye and disappeared into the huge park, completely disappearing.

Wow.

A large basin of stones was dumped by Yu Hong against the courtyard wall. He shook the ashes in the bucket and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves.

Look back. The large piece of pyroxene in the yard has now been made into powder. When the black mark is strengthened, it will be strengthened into large pyroxene powder.

Boom boom.

Just as he was about to go back and continue, there was a gentle tapping sound from outside the wall.

Yu Hong turned around and looked in the direction of the sound.

A car key was thrown away, accurately crossed the wall, and landed in front of him.

Picking up the key, Yu Hong showed a relaxed look on his face.

"Back? Lao Li."

Sure enough, a familiar figure was standing outside the wall.

The opponent was wearing a black and green camouflage uniform, carrying a mess of various equipment on his back, including guns, shields, knives, and even two food store packaging bags with the words Xu Ji Lobster printed on them.

Li Runshan was still the same, opening his goggles and looking at Yu Hong with a smile on his face.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and got the strains, as well as the accompanying breeding instructions!"

But soon the smile on his face quickly faded, replaced by solemnity and coldness.

"But there is also bad news. I learned from the survivors I met on the way that nearby prefecture-level cities are evacuating. In the future, the entire East River will focus on building a new Aurora City, and everyone will move towards that direction. Migration.”

"Migration? New Aurora City?" The first thing Yu Hong thought of was Lin Yiyi. "What about the other prefecture-level cities like Hope City? Just give up?"

"The daylight hours have been shortened by another two hours. Now it is almost night, and the daytime is full of fog. There is not enough sunlight, and solar energy cannot continue to be used." Li Runshan replied. "Coupled with the collapse of the front line and the influx of high-risk black disasters, I am afraid that the prefecture-level City of Hope will also be abandoned."

"After that, the supply team." Yu Hong was silent for a moment and asked.

"No more. Even the prefecture-level City of Hope has been abandoned, let alone us. But the number of immigrants is limited. It is impossible for everyone to be moved away. At least one third of the people will stay and fend for themselves. We can contact these people in the future," Li Runshan replied.

After explaining this, he turned around and headed back towards the post office.

"From now on, we can only rely on ourselves." He waved his hand, without looking back, and gradually disappeared into the mist.

Yu Hong held the key and watched him leave.

Turning around, he entered the safe house, went to the basement, and looked at the countdown on the wall: 11:24 on the 9th.

'Soon. Soon'

He exhaled, full of anticipation, and was about to go to the first floor to warm up by the fire, raise the room temperature, and have a good rest.

Suddenly, a strange feeling flashed through his mind.

Li Runshan's demeanor, expression, and eyes when he spoke just now flashed through his mind. I always felt like something about the whole scene felt wrong.

Standing up straight, Yu Hong slowly returned to the first floor, found a stool and sat down, recalling the scene over and over again.

At the same time, he also took out the enhanced red value detector to measure the values ​​of the surrounding environment and himself.

‘0.124.’ In the safe house, which is a pyroxene chamber structure, the red value is close to zero, making it very safe.

‘Is it an illusion? ’

He frowned slightly.

In the gray mist.

Li Runshan entered the yard with the fungus bag and opened the door of the stone house with the key.

Although the broken door had been knocked down several times, he still relied on his own skills to put it back together and repair it.

"Hey, Nana, I'm back." He raised his voice.

Enter the house and close the wooden door behind your back.

Li Runshan looked at the empty stone house and knew that they were all underground, so he put down the bacteria bag, took off his somewhat cracked helmet, turned and walked towards the living room.

That's the entrance to the underground civil defense.

However, after taking only a few steps, he frowned, the smile on his face quickly faded, and he slowed down and took off his steps.

Snap.

He paused suddenly and turned to look behind him.

The empty corridor of the stone house was all gray and white, with only two colorful paintings by Eisenna on the wall.

Li Runshan scanned the corridor carefully, checking every inch and corner.

But nothing was found.

He trusted his instincts, because just now, he felt someone behind him.

Someone stood about five or six meters away from him, staring at him.

‘Could it be a ghost? ’ He carefully looked at the talisman array boards on the surrounding walls. Each talisman board was all exchanged from Yu Hong. These talisman boards were evenly attached to the inner wall of the stone house, covering most of the area. If the shadow wants to come in, it will definitely touch the talisman board, causing a reaction.

But he checked all the talisman boards posted on the wall and found no movement.

The talisman board was safe and sound, still attached to the wall.

"Fuck!" Li Runshan felt something was wrong.

He took out the red value detector and pressed the switch. All the values ​​on it were normal, showing 11.

It is obvious that the surrounding rune boards offset part of the red radiation in the outside air.

Holding the detector, he breathed a sigh of relief and pressed the off button.

Suddenly, he saw a reflection from the smooth panel of the detector.

In the reflection, behind him, not far away, there seemed to be a vague white figure standing.

It was hard to tell whether the figure was male or female, but he could vaguely feel that the other person was smiling.

A very bright smile.

In the reflection of the detector, he smiled happily at Li Runshan.

Swish.

Li Runshan turned around suddenly, but there was nothing behind him.

But at this moment, he already knew that he was wrong!

‘I can’t stay here, I can’t implicate Nana! ’ He was so scared that he made a quick decision, took his equipment, opened the door and rushed out of the stone house, rushed out of the yard, and soon disappeared in the fog.
