"That's really great news, Boss."
"Look, I told you so. There are many talented people in our base. They are definitely not worse than Jiang Mi and his team. Don't worry. After a while, we will definitely surpass them by several levels."
Hearing this, he couldn't help but shook his head and then said.
"Our goal is to create a new human era and rebuild a new human home, not to compete with anyone as you said."
"Don't mention this kind of thing in front of me in the future, or I will teach you a lesson."
After saying that, he stood up, turned and left.
The people behind him didn't dare to say another word.
Gu Qi came to the wasteland outside the door as quickly as possible. Half a green plant had already appeared here, and he was naturally happy.
In this apocalypse, green plants represent new life, which seems to be a step in their progress.
Looking at the green plants, a smile appeared on his lips.
"It's almost done. Everything will be done soon."
“Oh no!”
Suddenly, the alarm bell rang and everyone in the base evacuated to the safe area.
"What's going on over there?"
Gu Qi's expression changed slightly, he turned back suddenly and asked in a cold voice.
"There are mutants approaching."
Hearing this, he was moved and rushed into the crowd.
Standing on the T-watchtower of the base, one can see a dark mass of people below. There are at least several hundred mutants approaching.
"Why are there so many mutants suddenly here?"
Gu Qi asked loudly, but no one answered.
"I'm asking you guys a question, but you're all speechless. Where on earth did you attract so many mutants from?"
Before he finished speaking, someone behind him responded cautiously.
“We were accidentally injured when we went out to collect food, leaving blood all the way to the base.”
"But when we found them, we had already buried the blood and covered up the smell. We thought we could stop these mutants from following us, but we didn't expect them to find us anyway."
Gu Qi was filled with indignation. He never dreamed that these people would be so careless in doing things.
In this situation, if these mutants were allowed to break through the defense line, the lives of everyone in the base would be threatened.
Thinking of this, he spoke coldly.
"Prepare for battle, we must stop these mutants!"
Three lines of defense have been established.
In order to ensure everyone's safety, Gu Qi led his men to the first line of defense.
At this moment someone discovered him and naturally became very anxious, and spoke loudly.
"Why did you come down to the defense line? Get out of here quickly. It's too dangerous. If there is any trouble, it will be terrible."
Gu Qi looked at everyone coldly and spoke loudly.
"There are still many weak survivors in the base who need our protection. Everyone must persevere."
Although he is not a good person, he still has to ensure the safety of the stronghold under such circumstances.
Everyone, including him, will be attacked by the mutants!
By then, I'm afraid there will be no way to resist.
"Everyone fight them."
Seeing that these deformed people were approaching them, everyone picked up their weapons and fought back.
However, because the other side had too many people, when one group fell down, another group rushed up.
So much so that the first line of defense will soon be breached.
At this moment, many people were injured and attacked by the mutants!
"Boss, we can't hold on any longer. We have to retreat quickly."
Gu Qi watched as the people around him fell one after another, groaning in pain, and some were already in a state of awakening due to the attacks.
In this situation, if they don't make preparations, they will probably die.
Thinking of this, he suddenly spoke.
"Bring all those who are about to awaken back to a safe place. The second line of defense is officially open. We must stop the mutants."
Before he finished speaking, the second line of defense had been set up, and everyone was taking all the injured people who were about to awaken back to a safe place.
Fortunately, they fought back.
The mutants were also hit hard, suffering countless casualties. Seeing that half of their men were gone, these guys actually suspended their attack.
They quickly retreated to the surrounding area, giving them some breathing space.
Gu Qi looked at the dark crowd in the distance and felt a little uneasy.
"Everyone must take good care of the area around the base and do not let them launch an attack. If there is anything unusual, notify us immediately."
"As for the others, they should heal their wounds and make preparations. We have to go check on the injured now and make sure they don't get into any more trouble."
After saying that, he suddenly stood up and went directly to the group of people waiting to be awakened.
These people fell to the ground, already in coma, and it looked like they were about to wake up.
However, because there were too many people, there was no one to look after the unconscious people, and they didn't know when they would wake up, which also put a certain amount of pressure on the base.
"Boss, we suffered heavy losses this time. When we counted the number of people, we found that half of them were attacked."
"One-third of them are about to wake up, but are now completely unconscious and have no clear consciousness."
"The remaining 1/3 have been declared dead."
Gu Qi looked at the people behind him, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He knew that this was the consequence of their concealment, and immediately became furious.
"What about those two people? The ones who went out to look for food and caused the general attack with blood? Where are they?"
Originally, I wanted to find these two people and punish them severely to serve as a warning to others.
This is to prevent such things from happening again. After all, each time the losses were heavy, and he could not possibly bear all the blame for such a person.
I never thought of it.
The person next to him whispered.
"Those two people were attacked at the first line of defense just now. One of them has been declared dead, and the other is lying in the array of awakeners."
"I don't know when we will wake up. But there are more and more mutants out there. What should we do?"
At this moment, everyone in the base was already a little panicked.
Looking at the dark masses of mutants outside, I felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.
Seeing this, Gu Qi felt somewhat dissatisfied.
Then he couldn't help but speak.
"Don't worry about it. Tell everyone about this matter. Be careful when you go out to find food or complete tasks in the future. Never let something like this happen again."
"Otherwise, leave him alone to face those bastards out there."
Hearing this, the assistant and others nodded hurriedly, not daring to say another word.
But now, facing so many people who are about to awaken, he is a little at a loss.
Although the reagents he developed could temporarily guarantee their safety, they could not guarantee 100% success. Moreover, he did not know when they would be able to wake up, which was the most important thing.
Now, the only one who can help them may be Jiang Mi. (End of this chapter)
