Chapter 275 Habit

The Sentinels, already mutated, have dark matter almost seeping into their very bones.

It's a bit troublesome to manage and guide people.

There were two sentries, but she only had one little bluebird.

Moreover, Yun Zhao couldn't see anyone, so he had to do it himself, relying entirely on his mental threads to capture and clean up bit by bit.

When Xie Tu and Song Liang came in, they saw her standing between two metal cabins, surrounded by fluorescent light, her whole body glowing.

The staff and sentries around her remained as silent as wooden figures, not daring to make a sound to disturb her.

The metal storage room had become completely quiet.

The bluish-green fluorescence reflected a chilling light on the cold metal walls, making the surrounding silence even more eerie.

Xie Tu's gaze involuntarily fell on her.

She stood there quietly, her head slightly tilted back, her eyes closed, her brows furrowed, carefully cleaning away the dark matter.

Xie Tu noticed at a glance that she seemed to have been summoned in a hurry, and she hadn't had time to put on her hat and scarf, and the zipper of her down jacket wasn't zipped up properly.

Seeing this, Song Liang patiently waited with the team leader for the treatment to end.

＊

Another half hour passed.

Yun Zhao finally withdrew his spiritual threads, and all the fluorescent light immediately dissipated.

"It should be alright now."

The sentries were surprised that it happened so quickly, and they all looked delighted and gathered around to express their gratitude.

He then rushed to the metal storage to check on his teammates.

Song Liang first greeted Yun Zhao, then went over to see his brother-in-law.

The metal hatch was opened.

The originally dark and cramped space became bright and airy, and the chilling, oppressive atmosphere was no longer there.

The person inside had already lost consciousness.

The distortion is irreversible, and a comprehensive examination is needed to understand the specific physical condition.

Song Liang felt a huge weight lifted from his heart once he saw the person.

At least it looks normal on the outside, with a pollution concentration of 68%. The aberration only happened recently, but fortunately Yun Zhao is strong enough to clean it up quickly.

The five sentries in that squad had the same idea.

I came over again to thank her.

"Guide Yun, we owe you so much this time... I can't thank you enough. Please feel free to ask us for help in the future."

Yun Zhao had been working all day and was a little tired, so he nodded perfunctorily.

I couldn't hear what they were saying at all.

Her work was done; the rest was none of her business. She needed to go back and rest.

Xie Tu seemed to have seen through her thoughts, greeted Song Liang, and led her away.

The two walked down the quiet corridor. Xie Tu deliberately slowed his pace to walk beside her, turning his head to ask, "Did you forget your hat and scarf in the evacuation room?"

Yun Zhao: "Yes, I was in too much of a rush just now and didn't have time."

Xie Tu: "Shall we go get it now?"

Yun Zhao thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need to take it, I'm too lazy to go, anyway I have to go there tomorrow."

It wasn't as cold in the afternoon as it was in the morning.

She took the car back, which only took a few minutes, and didn't want the hassle.

"However, I need to go to the operations department. I bought a batch of weapons, and Minister Duan said he would help me equip them. I need to take them back."

I received the message around noon.

Yun Zhao had originally planned to finish and then go pick it up.

Xie Tu knew she had bought it for the low-ranking sentries in Qingshan Town, so he nodded and said, "Let's go then."

Neither of them mentioned the matter of guard post number 36.

Since Yun Zhao started seeing patients, he finally understood the true value of the saying "Don't talk about get off work after work."

She had absolutely no interest in knowing the whole process.

Unexpected things happen every day outside, and anyone could be sacrificed before this cannibalistic world ends.

＊

The two arrived at the operations department's equipment depot.

Xie Tu was responsible for doing the hard labor, helping to move guns and ammunition.

She knew nothing about weapons and never fired a gun after learning target shooting.

The diamond bird I gave her was more like an ornament she wore.

Xie Tu opened the box and helped with the inventory and inspection.

Fortunately, she knew to ask Minister Duan for help.

The minister personally spoke up, saying that the people who prepared this batch of weapons had put in a lot of effort, and all the firearms had been assembled and tested, so they were ready to use right away.

Yun Zhao didn't want to cause trouble. He watched as the man carefully inspected the box with his head down, then closed it again and moved it onto the military vehicle.

The base's small military vehicles are eight-seaters. Although they are not as good as their armored vehicles, the seats are removable and the space is large enough to fit all the things we bought.

The support staff were also helping to move things, and I wanted to peek but didn't dare.

S-class Sentinels are seen as legendary figures, guardians of humanity's hope.

Xie Tu had long held sway at the base, exuding a sharp and imposing aura. He was powerful, authoritative, and always a man of his word.

Nobody has ever seen Captain Xie do manual labor for others.

Everyone found it strange.

Xie Tu worked calmly, and after moving the boxes and confirming that everything was in order, he signed the papers and then called her to get in the car.

Yun Zhao climbed into the passenger seat and settled in, then asked, "Shouldn't I be the one signing?"

"It doesn't matter who signs."

Xie Tu paused for a moment, then said, "This is just a confirmation and acceptance process. Once the logistics department's items leave this room, any problems discovered will not be covered by the department."

"You can do that?"

Yun Zhao said subtly, "What if we get a bad weapon? Wouldn't we just have to accept our bad luck?"

Xie Tu smiled and said, "Not at all, they wouldn't dare."

If you dare give her anything with problems, Little Bluebird will probably burn down the armory with his useless spirit.

Yun Zhao was relieved.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to go directly to Minister Duan.

The car slowly drove towards the outer city area.

The two sat in the car chatting.

As usual, Yun Zhao began to share with him what she had done that day.

They would also talk about things in town, such as the progress of the aunties making sausages, the children's winter vacation, and the two plots of land they cultivated on the back hill...

She seems to have gotten used to the current way they interact.

The two initially only talked about business, but now they talk about everything and even send each other goodnight messages at night.

Xie Tu listened attentively, and whenever she was about to stop, he would speak up to continue the conversation.

The car drove directly into the residential area.

Xie Tu got out of the car and helped carry all the weapon boxes into the Cheng Dongshu brothers' house on the first floor before leaving to continue his work.

＊

Days passed by like this.

The sentries guarded the base's security outside, while Yun Zhao went to the evacuation room to help out every day.

She initially only received eight sentries per day, but later approached Minister Bai and offered to increase the number of reservations to twelve.

no way.

So many people have booked her services; she's received rave reviews and is constantly in a queue.

If she continues to manage eight people a day, she probably won't be able to finish by the time the Lunar New Year arrives.

Before we knew it, it was the day before the eve of the Lunar New Year.

Xie Tu had sent out a notice in the group a few days ago.

Team Zero's Lunar New Year's Eve dinner.

The main concern was that during the Spring Festival, Song Liang and Duan Xi would have to spend time with their families, while Yun Zhao would probably have a reunion dinner with the people in town.

Team Zero's New Year's Eve dinner was scheduled for the eve of the Lunar New Year.

Meat is hard to buy during the Chinese New Year.

Xie Tu ordered dozens of kilograms of meat a few days in advance, brought it back to the training ground, and notified Qi Ling at the same time.

He will officially join Team Zero's dinner party.

Qi Ling hasn't been having a good time lately.

Commander Xie arranged for him to receive specialized training on the rules of the contaminated area, including physical fitness tests and firearms lessons...

The packed schedule was extremely draining, leaving him feeling hungry and constantly hungry...

Qi Ling now weighs her meat before eating it every day.

Then, wearing special barrier gloves, they recorded the points they had earned in a ledger.

Watching the debt pile up higher and higher.

Qi Ling was filled with anxiety.

The more he eats, the more he owes, but if he doesn't eat, he'll be so hungry he'll lose consciousness and be completely unable to train seriously.
