Embers Ad Infinitum

As his thoughts flashed, Jiang Baimian considered and said:

"If the probability of the 'Doctor''s attack was low before, and all our preparations and responses were just precautions and things to do casually, then now we have to really face up to this possibility. It looks like Getting up seems imminent.”

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the "Salvation Army" to be unable to contact the "New World" strongman sleeping in Wubei by such a coincidence.

Too many coincidences often mean there is some kind of necessity behind them.

When Long Yuehong and others were horrified, Commissioner Huang sighed, nodded slightly and said:

"Indeed it is.

"Over the years, we have contacted people who have entered the 'New World', and we have failed at most two or three times out of a hundred. However, these two or three times have precursors that can be predicted, which are completely different from this time."

"What's the sign?" Shang Jianyao, who is always looking for novelty and novelty, asked questions regardless of the occasion.

Commissioner Huang replied casually:

"Their bodies sleeping in reality show signs of dying, or are visibly decaying."

Before Shang Jianyao could ask again, he brought the topic back on track:

“Under the current circumstances, such anomalies are enough to show that some of your and my worries are not delusions.

"I was just taking advantage of the situation to provide you with some help. Anyway, because of the nuclear warhead, the people, soldiers and the sleeping man in Wubei had to be evacuated. Simply changing the plan is a piece of cake. But now it seems that we need to seriously consider how to deal with it. That's the 'Doctor' in your mouth.

"The previous plan must be adjusted to some extent."

"Without the protection of the strong men of the 'New World', can humans escape the infection of 'Wuxin Disease'?" Long Yuehong asked eagerly.

If not, then the strong people in the "New World" are equivalent to nuclear bombs on another level. No matter how much Commissioner Huang adjusts the plan, he can't change the outcome that a large number of people here will become "unintentional people".

Commissioner Huang glanced at Mr. Zhang who was wearing a deep-bottomed aluminum pot:

"As far as my personal experience and the various materials I have read are concerned, no one can escape the 'unintentional disease' actively spread by the powerful people in the 'New World' unless they keep a sufficient distance.

"Awakened people who enter the 'Soul Corridor' may be able to survive for a while longer, but because of this, such humans often become the focus of the strong people in the 'New World'. Under the influence of high-concentration viruses, those who can survive for a little longer will It’s easily offset.”

Commissioner Huang glanced at several members of the "old tune group":

"Only the robots among you are sure not to be infected."

Gnawa was not proud of this.

Bai Chen saw the team leader thinking and took the initiative to ask for her:

"How far away do you have to be from the strong men of the 'New World' to maintain enough distance?"

Commissioner Huang shook his head:

"There is no statistical data. We can only say that if one is in the southwest urban area of ​​Wubei and the exit is located in the northeast, it will not be affected and infected with 'Wuxin Disease'."

So scary... Long Yuehong almost took a breath.

Previously, he "simply" defeated the "Doctor", which gave him the feeling that the strong men in the "New World" were nothing more than this. Who knew that once such big figures really returned to the dust, the level of danger would skyrocket. The same cannot be said for taking action after passing the node.

At this moment, Shang Jianyao's face became quite gloomy, and his body seemed to be controlled by the cowardly and vicious person.

Jiang Baimian calmed down, looked at Commissioner Huang and said:

"How would you like to adjust the plan?"

In her opinion, Commissioner Huang must know the powerful people of the "New World" better than she and others, and the plan he formulated will be relatively effective.

Not being blindly confident and knowing how to listen to other people's opinions has always been Jiang Baimian's advantage.

Commissioner Huang walked a few steps toward the window with his hands behind his back, then stopped and said:

“I hope you can understand that my next highest priority will be the ordinary people and most of the soldiers in Wubei, as well as the sleeping one.

"But don't worry, we at the Salvation Army have no habit of throwing out collaborators as bait."

"No problem!" Shang Jianyao answered extremely loudly, almost raising his right hand and pressing it on his left chest.

Mr. Zhang, who was wearing a gray-white aluminum pot and had been listening quietly, seemed to nod slightly.

Now that Shang Jianyao has given the answer on behalf of the "old tune team", Jiang Baimian can only keep his expression unchanged and wait for Commissioner Huang to come up with a specific plan.

Commissioner Huang took out the crumpled pack of cigarettes, took one and stuffed it into his mouth.

This time, he didn't hesitate anymore, lit it with a match and took a long breath.

In the gray-white smoke that filled the air, Commissioner Huang said while thinking:

"Assuming that the only powerful person from the 'New World' who returns this time is 'Doctor', well, this probability is very high. The return of the 'New World' in batches only happens in rare cases. The most recent one should be When there is turmoil in the 'First City'.

"The Eighth Research Institute wants to deal with you. It's enough for the 'Doctor' to return alone. The other strong men might as well stay in the 'New World' and disturb our sleeping one in Wubei so that he can't provide help.

"With this premise, we can know that the 'Doctor' has two top priority targets. One is you, and the other is the one who is sleeping in Wubei. For the Eighth Research Institute, it can weaken our 'save the world' Jun's opportunity will definitely not be missed.

"I have already sent a telegram to Pingnan to report the anomalies that have occurred here. It won't take long for other 'New World' experts from our 'Salvation Army' to provide help to the one sleeping in Wubei. That is to say, the latter may recover and provide blessings after a quarter of an hour, half an hour, or an hour.

"The core of my plan is to delay as much time as possible until that time."

Pingnan is the headquarters of The Salvation Army.

"To make a long story short, since the sleeping one has been disturbed, it means that the so-called 'Doctor' will arrive in half an hour, or even less." Mr. Zhang, who was wearing a deep-bottomed aluminum pot, suddenly interrupted.

Commissioner Huang said "hmm" and said to the "old tune group":

"It remains unchanged that ordinary people and most of the soldiers will be evacuated from the northeast. We will go southwest via the Moonscale River to help attract their attention and give them time to fully organize themselves and create sufficient distance.

"The crowd retreating along the Moonscale River will be divided into several groups. As long as the general direction remains unchanged, the 'Doctor' and his followers will only have time to intercept and kill two or three groups.

“You and the sleeping one in Wubei are hiding in different teams, take the opportunity to stay away.

"I can't guarantee that you will never be discovered and locked. It really depends on luck. I can only tell you that I will personally select a group of people to pretend to be you and the sleeping one, and try to lure away the 'Doctor'. Once If he exposes his location, those still in Wubei will launch ballistic missiles to cover the corresponding area and destroy his body!"

It seems to be the consensus of the "Salvation Army" that the strong men in the "New World" cannot resist missiles. Xu Datong, whom he met before, also said the same... Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully.

Shang Jianyao frowned and asked:

"Aren't those people who were targeted by the 'Doctor' destined to die?"

On the one hand, there is a high probability of being infected with "innocent disease"; on the other hand, even if you can escape the virus, you will lose your life due to subsequent ballistic missile coverage.

"Yes." Commissioner Huang nodded calmly, "The current situation is that if the sleeping one fails to wake up in time, some people must sacrifice to create life for others. You also have this possibility, so I will I'll give you a few signal flares, and as soon as you confirm the position of 'Doctor', launch them at the corresponding location."

Do you think too highly of us? Long Yuehong felt a toothache when he heard this.

If the "Doctor's" main target hadn't been the "Old Tune Team", he felt that he would probably have chosen to follow the large army and run as far as he could.

"This plan is okay." Jiang Baimian thought for a while and expressed his approval.

Of course, the "Old Tune Team" can choose not to listen to Commissioner Huang, but this will inevitably lead to a fierce conflict with the "Salvation Army" before the "Doctor" attacks, wasting the opportunity to escape.

Under the current circumstances, it was a blessing in misfortune that there were many teams covering their evacuation.

When Commissioner Huang saw that the "old tune group" had approved his plan, he took another puff of cigarette and said:

"I'm going to make arrangements now and give you ten minutes to prepare.

"Meet you in the hotel parking lot later."

After saying that, he walked out of the room and took the people outside down the stairs. Mr. Zhang left without saying a word, holding the gray-white aluminum pot on his head.

"Get ready, get ready." Shang Jianyao shouted, taking out the black windbreaker he had requested and putting it on his body.

Then he put on his sunglasses.

"What kind of preparation is this?" Long Yuehong asked doubtfully.

Shang Jianyao straightened his chest and raised his head, and replied confidently:

"You'll look more handsome when you wear it like this."

"..." Jiang Baimian took a breath and said, "We have made all the preparations we need to make. Now we just need a call back from the company. Well, send another urgent telegram to say that the 'doctor' is definitely coming."
