Since Lianyi decided to go on the mission with Tornado, it was naturally not just talk. Especially after listening to Situ Yi's story, she knew that the situation over there must be very bad. Those mutated and enlarged rats must be difficult to deal with, otherwise she would not let them take action.

So she not only armed herself to the teeth, but also armed the whirlwind, giving it a set of soft armor to protect its belly, back and little butt.

At first, Tornado was reluctant to wear the soft armor, but after Ripple patiently explained it to it, it accepted it. However, Tornado still pushed the soft armor into Ripple's bag, hoping to wear it when he got to the place, and Ripple did not object.

This time Jiayao continued to stay at home. Liu Zili and Xu Fenfang left one person at home to take care of the children and prepare medicines, while the other took over the emergency rescue mission at the base, treating the wounded and treating patients with headaches and fevers. At least she could earn some food every day.

An hour later, all the team members were present, and Yuan Chongming, as the team leader, led the team again.

There were five teams operating with them this time, three of which had worked with them before when they captured Lu Zuochuan, so they were relatively familiar with the area. Each team had a speedboat and moved quickly on the melted water.

On the way they could see some people diving into the water to salvage things. Apparently the rapidly rising temperature had made them no longer timid and they began to look for food. Some brave ones would even intercept them, hoping to take their speedboat to the temporary base. They would curse at them when they were rejected. Only when Yuan Chongming pulled out a pistol did these people shut up.

"Now that the water level has dropped, anyone who can swim can go in and fish for food. As long as you are brave, you should be able to persevere. Our mission is important."

The captain of another team said.

According to the coordinates provided by the rescue personnel, he moved forward for another hour and had to abandon the speedboat because the terrain here was relatively high and the ground was exposed after the water level dropped. Moreover, they were located in the famous shantytown in Qimu City.

Looking at the half-collapsed shantytown in front of them, everyone frowned. It was dead silent here and it didn't look like anyone was living there.

"Captain Lin Yi, are you sure the location provided by the other party is here?"

Yuan Chongming asked.

"It's here! The person who brought the news said that he didn't hide here during the extreme cold weather. Instead, he was in the neighborhood we just passed by. He was attacked by rats and was brought here. This should be the rats' nest."

Captain Lin Yi answered affirmatively.

With a "meow", Tornado appeared. He wrinkled his nose and then called out to Ripple again.

Everyone also turned their attention to Tornado. The military and police officers who had worked together before knew how powerful Tornado was, and they also understood why Lianyi brought Tornado here. They all looked at Tornado, wanting to know what it was going to do.

"Be careful! If you find someone trapped, call out. If you find something wrong, come back. Don't try to be brave. OK?"

Lianyi put armor on Tornado like an old mother, kissed his little head, and then put Tornado on the ground and said:

"Go ahead!"

"Meow!" Tornado cried, swung his tail, and turned into a black lightning, rushing into the half-collapsed shantytown.

"Tornado smells rats. He's going to lure the rats out. Everyone, get ready to attack. My baby will notify me when he finds the trapped people."

Lianyi explained to the eager-eyed crowd.

Yuan Chongming nodded, and was the first to step onto the narrow road in the shantytown, moving forward cautiously. The team members kept in formation and followed, carefully stepping into the territory of the mutant rats.

A moment later, when the rescue team entered the shantytown, they heard squeaking sounds mixed with meowing sounds.

Lian Yi's face turned grim, and she walked directly to the head of the team and said to Yuan Chongming:

"I'll lead the way, you guys keep a certain distance from me and don't follow too closely!"

"Okay! Be careful!"

Lianyi has already loaded his weapons. The reason why his tornado is screaming so urgently is probably because there are too many rats and it is beyond his ability to handle.

Lianyi followed the sound of the whirlwind, quickly locked onto its direction, rushed over with light steps, and kicked open a shaky iron door.

"Whirlwind, jump!"

Lianyi's eyes flashed, and he saw the besieged Tornado, and immediately shouted loudly.

"Meow!"

Tornado responded quickly, gave up counterattacking, and jumped towards the low roof with a kick of his hind legs.

At the same time, the submachine gun in Lianyi's hand fired, directly towards the group of rats that were besieging Tornado.

The squeaking sounds were endless. When the people who entered the shanty house saw it, they all gasped and joined the shooting as they looked at the tide of rats.

"Tornado, come back!"

When Lianyi stopped shooting, the people behind him also stopped shooting immediately, so as not to accidentally hurt Tornado, as they couldn't afford the compensation!

Tornado had jumped down from the shaking lampshade on the ceiling, grabbed the mouse that was blocking its way with its two claws, then quickly jumped onto Lianyi's shoulder, meowing non-stop.

"retreat!"

Yuan Chongming said immediately.

After everyone had left, Lianyi was the last one to finish up, and he threw a grenade directly in.

With a loud bang, the relatively intact shed was blown up, and the dead body of a rat flew out. Seeing the gray rat that was as big as a medium-sized dog, everyone's brows were tightly furrowed. They looked at each other and became alert.

“Tornado said that he was besieged by the rats as soon as he entered.”

"Did Cyclone find the location of the trapped people?"

"I guess it has become food for rats."

Although Lianyi didn't want to say it, what Xuanfeng conveyed was that there was residual human breath in the room just now, but she only saw white bones.

"Hiss! Those aren't just 10 or 20 people, they're nearly 200!"

Situ Yi was also shocked.

"We have alerted them. Get ready. Tornado and I will lead the way and take a closer look."

That’s all Lian Yi could say.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

Lianyi stuffed several dried fish into Xuanfeng's stomach, and then let the little baby continue to work.

Tornado is also a brave one. After showing off the dried fish, he took the lead and continued to go deeper into the winding roads of the old shantytown, with Ripples following closely behind him.

They had walked less than a hundred meters when Tornado let out a cry, sending out a warning.

"Everyone be careful! The rats are coming!"

Lianyi immediately reminded loudly.

Everyone loaded their guns and stared nervously ahead, but the first to be attacked was the end of the team, where mutant rats surrounded them from behind and bit the shoes of a member of the action team. After he killed them with a single knife, rats began to fall from both sides of the road like dumplings.

These rats had a clear goal and did not let anyone go. They wanted to win by numbers and instantly overwhelmed the action team, excluding Lianyi and Tornado. (End of this chapter)
