Chapter 65:
The short sentence was like a bolt from the blue, smashing everyone.
First of all, fear - Qiu Brown is the core and leader of the players in the north of the base. But again, once something happens to him, the remaining players will inevitably fall into a situation where everyone is in danger.
But at the same time, there is a second shocking and even dare not think about information: Zombies have ambushed human beings!
"How can zombies be ambushed? They are just a group of corpses that rely on body instinct to move!"
A tall player roared and found himself the center of attention. He is also straight-tempered, with two thick eyebrows raised high, "Look at me? Am I right?"
Bai Qi said lightly, "You are right, but now is not the time to dwell on this issue."
He worked hard for more than a month's "potential", so he was in danger in the face of an unexpected change.
No, not without warning!
Bai Qi suddenly looked at Tang Xiao, their eyes crossed in the air, and at the same time they looked at the soldiers guarding the door:
"I have something to do and I'm afraid I can't continue to participate in the celebration/Can you help me contact someone?"
“…”
The soldiers have just learned the news from Bai Qi's mouth with everyone, and they are no less shocked than they are. But fortunately, the hard quality of the soldiers is still there, and they still stick to their posts, and they also provide assistance to Tang Xiao and the others by the way.
They only have one paging machine, because Tang Xiao was the first to ask for someone, so he asked her first, "Who are you looking for?"
Bai Qi couldn't see her expression, so she took a step back.
The three words of Colonel Feng blurted out, and Tang Xiao realized that when it was time to use the name, she didn't even know the other party's full name.
So she quickly added, "Colonel Feng, who is in charge of the city defense army, what is his number?"
Fortunately, the soldier did not question, "Dong Yaodong."
Dong Yaodong is 010, Tang Xiao dialed the number and the call was connected.
"Excuse me?" A familiar voice came from the microphone.
"Tang Xiao." Both of them were concise.
"It's you." Colonel Feng breathed a sigh of relief, Tang Xiao could feel his breath a little unsteady, and he seemed to be on the road while on the phone.
She went straight to the point, "I heard that someone encountered a corpse tide outside the base, which reminds me of the corpse tide I encountered in Star City, and may provide some useful information. Can I go there now? "
Colonel Feng was silent for a moment, Tang Xiao couldn't "see" his expression through the microphone, but he could sense his footsteps stopped, and then the man asked, "Are you in the square?"
"I'm at the celebration, the commendation has not yet started, but I can ask the staff to help me receive it. My intuition tells me that this information is very important, when can I see you? From the square to the research institute Or how long will the military take?"
A series of questions will make people feel that the questioner is very urgent. In fact, Tang Xiao just moved his mouth quickly, and there was no unnecessary emotion in his eyes.
If you have time to panic, it is better to scold the dog more to save your worry and effort.
Colonel Feng seemed to be discussing with others, and returned to the microphone after a few seconds, "You wait there, I will send someone to pick you up."
Probably to appease Tang Xiao's emotions, he paused slightly and said rustly, "Don't worry, I'll be there soon."
Hang up the phone, Tang Xiao gave Bai Qi his place. Who knew that the young man didn't pick up the phone first, but asked Tang Xiao, "What are you going to do?"
Tang Xiao looked back in surprise, "Isn't it obvious what I'm going to do, shouldn't it, your IQ is so low?"
Bai Qi: “…”
He held back his inappropriate emotions and didn't speak again.
Tang Xiao heard his voice in his mind:
【Do you want to help the base resist the corpse tide? 】
Spiritual transmission? Mental skills?
She replied calmly: [Why do you ask, is your mission to help the zombies destroy the base? 】
[…]
[As a human being, is there any problem in fighting the virus from the standpoint of human beings? 】
[…]
Bai Qi gave her a deep look and picked up the phone.
Tang Xiao no longer cares who this group of people wants to contact, and walks to the gate alone, and sure enough, a military vehicle drove over shortly after, and it was to pick her up.
As the door closed, the bustle of the square quickly disappeared behind you.
Colonel Feng is not in the car, he may be at the headquarters, or he may be preparing to set out to rescue the team outside the base.
Tang Xiao was thinking about it, but the car suddenly stopped halfway through. Inertia made everything on the car tilt forward. Tang Xiao moved his fingertips slightly, and a subtle electric current swept across his body to stabilize his body. , the current disappeared instantly, and no one noticed all this.
There are two well-trained soldiers in the driver's seat and the communication machine on their waist keeps ringing, and the roar can be heard by Tang Xiao across a row of seats:
"Now all the patrolling soldiers go to the southwest, and gather near the northwest corner! Repeat, all the soldiers who are not on duty go to the southwest, and gather near the northwest corner!"
Don't even think about it, it must be related to the corpse tide just now. Tang Xiao immediately said, "Do you need me to go down now?"
The vehicle started again, and the soldier in the co-pilot looked like a recruit, young but stable, "Colonel Feng is in the southwest corner."
The southwest and northwest corners are the names of the two defensive buildings near the exit of the base. If you don't look carefully, you may think it is a thickened wall. But Tang Xiao used his mental power to carefully check the layout when he entered the base the day before yesterday, so he knew that the real line of defense was not in this wall, but in the formation of countless heavy weapons, bombing zones and laser lines of defense.
As long as there is no internal problem, it is almost impossible for ordinary corpses to break through.
It only took a few seconds for Tang Xiao to change his mind. When Tang Xiao was taken into the fortification, he realized that there were not only officers but also professors from the research institute.
The old man and the old lady, who had been in their sixties for several years, quarreled with the leaders of the city defense army, and Colonel Feng was not spared.
If it weren't for the physical unbearableness, these old professors would even go to the battlefield in person, just to get first-hand information and specimens.
A little girl who came quietly barely caught their attention, but fortunately there were acquaintances there. Professor Li seemed very calm among a group of emotional colleagues. Maybe he was too old to be noisy. He even took a sip of the wolfberry and red jujube water that he carried with him. As soon as he turned his head, he saw the familiar figure of a little girl.
His eyes lit up: "Little girl, it turns out that the person who has information to hand over to the country is you!"
Tang Xiao smiled and said that providing information was handed over to the country.
Seeing a group of bigwigs who play an important role in the state organs all look at her, Tang Xiao is no nonsense, she doesn't like to waste time in those so-called mysterious pomp, and since she has decided to act, she Not a minute is spare.
She spoke quickly, and her words were clear: "I heard a corpse tide outside the base at the celebration, and I immediately recalled that we had also encountered a corpse tide in Starcatcher City."
In the eyes of everyone, the girl's eyes flashed memories, and then she said with certainty, "I felt something was wrong at the time, that corpse wave was assembled illogically, and the actions were orderly, not like a mistake It was formed by accident. What’s more, it was a coincidence that we had just obtained research materials from the ruins of the base of Zhaixing City.”
"The target of the corpse tide is also the few of us."
Everyone's face changed.
Some people looked solemn and wanted to ask questions, and some people turned their heads, as if they couldn't bear to listen. Although this is just the words of Tang Xiao's family, it undoubtedly corresponds to a guess that they have kept secret for many days.
But now, a girl who has just traveled to the base from the hardest-hit area in the south has made this guess clear:
"I even had a bold idea at the time, that is, will these zombies obey the instructions of some kind of power?"
"Even - could they evolve without us seeing it?"
