Chapter 578: I'll go with you

Otherwise, the other party would not have found them so quickly and ambushed them at the intersection they had to pass.

Otherwise, everything would be unreasonable. He believed that there were no spies in their team. These were the people who had always been wholeheartedly following Brother Zhao.

Xiang Yu put a pot of hot water on the stove and said, "Drink a cup of water to warm yourself up first, and we'll talk about the rest later..."

Xiang Yu naturally noticed that some team members did not trust her. After all, she was the one who gave the box away personally.

But she didn't expect things to turn out this way.

After the water was boiled, Xiang Cheng took the initiative to pour water. There were only six cups, all carved from stone, and everyone took turns drinking.

The group did not dare to rest along the way. After trekking for more than ten hours to get here, they were tired and thirsty.

After drinking a cup of hot water, everyone regained some of their senses. If this woman really wanted to harm their Dawn Base.

With her relationship with Brother Zhao, she would have succeeded long ago.

Everyone trusted Xiang Cheng's words a little more.

Xiang Yu and Xiang Cheng were sitting on folding stools beside them. Xiang Yu was listening quietly to Xiang Cheng's report on what happened after the box was opened.

"You also met people from City B..."

"Yes, we met them. There were B City's logos on the three RVs, and I recognized them at a glance..." B City has always been very high-profile when going out on missions.

It's hard not to know them.

"Have you seen a bug this big..." Xiang Yu gestured with her hand. When she sent the bug away, it had grown as long as her arm.

It’s as thick as two arms and it keeps secreting mucus.

"I don't seem to have seen it..." Xiang Cheng recalled carefully, he indeed did not see the big bug that Sister Xiang Yu mentioned.

In addition, the situation was extremely chaotic at the time. There were too many insects, and the bullets could not be used up. There was no oxygen and the fire could not be started.

Once the bug crawled onto people's bodies and bit their flesh, they couldn't be shaken off, and no one could find a way to control the bug.

They had no choice but to flee in all directions.

"Did anyone else see it?" Xiang Yu continued to ask.

"Come here for a moment..." Xiang Cheng repeated Xiang Yu's previous question, and everyone said they didn't see anything.

Only one team member hesitated, with a thoughtful look on his face, but he felt that he had seen it wrong.

"I didn't see the big bug you mentioned, but I was the last one to run away. When I turned my head, I saw a huge thing crawling rapidly on the puddle on the ground."

He thought he was dazzled at the time because the thing was moving very fast, hiding in the black muddy water, and crawling under one of the cars.

This incident happened in just a few seconds, and the situation was very chaotic, so he didn't take it seriously.

"It seems that's it, the thing has run away..." Xiang Yu leaned back with his entire back against the chair.

No one spoke at this time, and the atmosphere fell silent for a while.

"Sister Xiang Yu, it's my fault. I didn't take good care of the things, otherwise those people wouldn't have succeeded..." It would be a lie for Xiang Cheng to say that he didn't blame himself.

But he was the backbone of these team members along the way. If even he kept sighing, these team members would lose their morale even more.

The cars and supplies are already gone, and if he starts complaining, it will be more trouble than it is worth.

Xiang Yu didn't say anything, but looked up at the ceiling. It was not until a long time later that she spoke.

"It's a foregone conclusion. It's a good thing that the things were not sent to the Dawn Base..." If Zhao Lixin opened it first, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

"Everyone is tired today, so let's take a rest first. I will set off with you tomorrow morning..." Xiang Yu stood up and stretched.

He wrapped his coat tighter around himself and walked out of the room.

Xiang Cheng was shocked. Sister Xiang Yu had been idle in the plains for several years. It seemed that the two empires had really annoyed her this time.

Soon Xiang Yu ordered the robot to find a few iron beds. Xiang Cheng and his companions were already tired after the journey, so they lay down on the beds and fell into a deep sleep.

Xiang Yu had lost all desire to sleep since she entered her own courtyard. She was in good spirits, and even felt a nameless anger in her heart.

She and Xie Li found the bug at the temporary camp in City A. At the time, they both thought the other had dropped it accidentally.

At the moment, it seems that this thing is multiplying so rapidly that the people in City A have obviously known about it for a long time, and they put it here on purpose.

They also knew they would go and investigate the camp.
