Chapter 064 Black Snake
Before daybreak, the special forces had already begun to assemble and distribute equipment.
This special team mission was carried out by selecting one group from among many special teams.
Two hundred people, twenty groups.
They were all veterans who had experienced many battles and were well aware of the dangers they might encounter when going out to investigate the situation at this critical moment, as well as how to respond in times of danger.
A group of people received their equipment and weapons. After putting on their equipment and carrying their weapons, they went to collect the supplies needed for this mission - level one nutrient solution.
Different from the nutrient solution used by everyone in the base and the outbound teams, the special teams all use this first-level nutrient solution once they go out on a mission. This is a concentrated nutrient solution developed by the base and is taken into the body through injection. One bottle can support the energy needed by the human body for ten days.
In other words, just one injection will keep you from feeling hungry for ten days.
The special team will be injected with one dose before going on a mission and carry one dose on their body, which is enough to sustain them for twenty days.
Level 1 nutrient solution consumes a lot of materials, and the process is cumbersome, with extremely low output. Currently, it can only be provided to special teams given tasks.
The well-equipped people lined up to get the nutrient solution.
The fourth group of the White Tiger Team arrived early, got their equipment early, and then took the team members to the place where the nutrient solution was distributed.
There are already many boxes here, which contain the supplies they need this time.
Ming Yi, the leader of Team 4 of the White Tiger Team, was the first in line. He had already skillfully verified his identity and the number of people in his team with the staff. After the verification, he stretched out his hand, and the staff quickly took out the bracelet and carefully put it on him.
Mingyi moved his wrist, confirmed that the bracelet was tight enough, and then put his hand down.
The staff took out two bottles of nutrient solution and gave them to him. Mingyi picked up the nutrient solution, put one into the bag on his body, and injected the other into his arm without blinking.
He had just moved to the side to make room for the team member behind him when the staff hurriedly called him, "Team Leader Ming, wait a minute, there's something else."
Mingyi looked over in confusion, "What else?"
The staff quickly delivered a box and instructed, "There are two buns inside. They can temporarily boost your combat power by 50% for five minutes at a critical moment. After the time is up, you'll feel a little tired, and your combat power will decrease slightly from its original level, but it won't drop too much, so you'll have to decide when to use them."
Mingyi looked at the small metal box in front of him with some surprise, and was a little skeptical, "Can it really increase combat power by 50%?"
The players behind him still maintained a neat formation, but they couldn't help but stick their heads out to look ahead.
Something that can increase combat effectiveness by 50% will cause some fluctuations in the mentality of even the special team members, no matter how stable their mentality is.
The person in charge smiled and nodded. "This has been tested in the laboratory and is confirmed to be correct. Each of you has one. Moreover, there are two buns in a box, which can increase combat power twice, without any interval in between."
In other words, they can eat the next meat bun immediately after the combat power enhancement period ends, and continue to enhance their combat power for another five minutes.
Mingyi took the metal box, which looked like the lunch box before Doomsday, stood aside to let the team members behind him, then opened the lid and took a look.
Two big, white and plump buns were placed in it. When going out on a mission, everything depends on convenience and speed. These buns are obviously not as convenient as the nutrient solution.
But it can increase combat power by 50%. Even if it is not so convenient to use, it is still a super treasure.
The buns were cold, but when he opened the lid, there was still a very fragrant smell. When he smelled this smell, Mingyi, who had just been injected with first-level nutrient solution, swallowed his saliva and his appetite was instantly aroused.
He quickly closed the lid.
The team members who received the supplies stood behind him, waiting for the other team members.
When the last person from Team White Tiger received the bun, they asked, "What if we don't encounter any danger during our mission and the buns aren't used? Do we need to return them?"
Any level one nutrient solution not used in their mission needed to be returned to the base, so this person asked.
During this period, the base distributed food to the entire base, and their special team also had some. After tasting the food, even if this bun had no special effects, he couldn't help but want to try it and see if it tasted as good as the ones he had eaten before.
The person in charge smiled and said, "The buns can't be kept for too long. If you don't encounter any danger during your mission, you should try to eat them within two days."
This is the disadvantage of steamed buns. Even though these metal boxes have a cooling effect, they cannot keep the buns for too long.
It would be great if this thing that can enhance combat power could be preserved for a longer period of time. Of course, it would be even better if it could be made into a liquid like nutrient solution.
Everyone received the supplies and understood the special effects of the buns. Then the whole team went to the parking lot and drove away from the base.
They left the base in different directions and headed towards different places.
In the car, the members of the fourth group of the White Tiger Team said nothing, their eyes focused and expressions carefully observing their surroundings.
At this time, the vehicle was driving in the canyon. The road was wide, but the surroundings were completely bare. The vehicle drove past, raising a cloud of dust.
It was very quiet outside the car, without even the sound of insects or birds.
But everyone in the car was on alert. Unlike the team going out on a mission, they only started to equip themselves when they reached the edge of the jungle. All of them were equipped before leaving the base, and they had weapons on them, so they could deal with danger at any time.
Soon after the vehicle left the canyon and headed towards the dense forest, a variety of chaotic sounds such as bang, rumble, and hiss came into everyone's ears.
Mingyi slammed on the brakes, and the vehicle continued to slide forward for a long distance due to inertia. Then, everyone saw dust flying ahead.
Faintly, you can see the silhouette of a giant beast flashing in the dust, and you can also see its huge black scales.
This place is still quite a distance away from the dense forest.
Now, the mutant beasts have left the jungle.
Mingyi's face turned grim and his expression became serious. He picked up the telescope next to him and adjusted the focus to see what was happening in front of him.
The place where he parked his car was some distance away from the strange beast that made the noise. It was too chaotic over there and it obviously didn't notice the car that suddenly appeared.
The telescope zoomed in, and he soon saw what was happening ahead.
That was a group of black snakes.
Mingyi had been in the special team for so many years, but this was the first time he saw so many black snakes. He tightened his grip on the telescope.
Black snakes are a very ferocious type of mutant beast. They are huge, with a body length of more than 20 meters, and are covered with hard and sharp scales. These scales usually stick to their bodies, but once fighting, all the scales can stand up, and each scale can cause fatal damage to the opponent.
At this time, the scales of this group of black snakes were not open, and they were obviously not in a combat state. The black snakes were tightly entangled, and the tips of their tails would hit the ground from time to time, making a banging sound.
Even at such a distance, they could vaguely feel the ground shaking in the car.
It was obvious that this group of black snakes were having sex.
The other members of the White Tiger Team also took out their binoculars to check the situation. When they saw the situation ahead, they all gasped.
"Have these black snakes changed their habits?" someone asked in a tense voice.
Everyone can answer this question.
But the black snake can leave the dense forest and run outside to eat, so its habits must have changed.
You know, the original black color likes darkness and humidity, so it gathers in larger and more lush forest areas all year round and will not easily run to dry places.
"Wait, team leader, look at the three o'clock direction." The team member reminded.
Mingyi looked over subconsciously, and his already ugly expression became even uglier.
Not far from the group of black snakes, there were many huge white oval objects piled up. If you looked closely, you could see that they were snake eggs.
At a glance, there were at least hundreds of snake eggs.
Mingyi's throat was dry. He opened his mouth and spoke after a while: "Huang Ke, go back and tell me the news, quickly!"
"Yes!" Huang Ke immediately stood up, unloaded some parts from the back of the car, quickly assembled it into a motorcycle-like vehicle, rode away quickly.
The car door closed, Mingyi restarted the car, parked it in a more secluded place, pressed a button inside the car, and the appearance of the entire car changed rapidly, and the color gradually synchronized with the color of the location.

An Qing came to the restaurant and gave everyone in the base a bag of fish with fermented black beans today.
The fermented black bean fish comes in a bag as a whole fish, and the price is very attractive. It costs thirty happiness points to buy one fish.
But she has enough happiness points now. One fish with fermented black beans for each person in the entire base only costs 26001990 happiness points, which she can afford.
What's more, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your child. If she is more generous, she will get more happiness in return tomorrow.
When she arrived at the restaurant, An Qing looked at the lard she had made yesterday. The lard had already solidified and was no different from the lard she had made in her previous life. Both were very white and looked like snow-white cream ice cream.
An Qing asked Ye Yu and the others to steam rice. She saw that there were one or two people following them, and she realized that these were the people they had found to learn how to do things.
However, with so many people, the kitchen seemed a little small, so An Qing called Wei Xunyi and asked him to expand the kitchen.
It doesn’t matter whether the restaurant is big or not, as long as the kitchen is big.
Wei Xunyi naturally agreed.
But the restaurant needs to use it now, so we can only wait until the evening to have someone come and renovate the kitchen, so we can only make do with it for now.
An Qing left the kitchen for them to use to steam rice, and she took out a stove and a wok to prepare to make jerky from the meat strips that she had cut yesterday.
She checked the meat and luckily, after a day, it was still fresh.
An Qing recalled the methods of making beef jerky that she had seen before. In fact, there are quite a few methods, and basically they all require marinating and baking. However, she doesn't have the conditions now, so she can only select some methods that she can do now.
Finally, she found a method of making jerky from the corner of her memory and started to make it.
However, when they started making the dried meat, Ye Yu and the others had already steamed the rice, so An Qing called them over to see how to make the dried meat.
Put the meat strips into the pot with cold water, remove the foam, then change the water, add cooking wine, onion, ginger powder and peppercorns, cover the pot and stew.
An Qing told them in detail what she added and what functions these things had.
After they wrote it down, An Qing looked into the kitchen. The people guarding the kitchen were the ones they brought with them.
"When you were steaming rice just now, did you tell them carefully how to do it?" Steaming rice is actually not difficult. As long as you listen carefully and take notes, you will be able to get the hang of it soon.
Ye Yu and the others nodded, saying that they had been told carefully how to operate it.
An Qing nodded. "After this pot of rice is cooked, let them start cooking. You guys stand by and watch. Remind them if anything is wrong."
Several people nodded.
An Qing didn't stew the pork for too long. Snow pork is relatively tender, so she took it out after stewing it for ten minutes and set it aside to drain the moisture.
After pouring out the remaining water, she handed the pot to Ye Yu and said, "You guys take turns to operate it."
There were still a lot of pork strips left, so they could each try it out without any problem.
Ye Yu was the first to arrive. She followed An Qing's previous operating procedures very strictly, including the time, to the exact minute.
Then came Jiang Shui and Bai Wei.
When it was Yuncheng's turn, the rice inside was steamed. Ye Yujiangshui Baiwei and Xiang Jiulai went in first to clear out the steamed rice, and then watched the newcomers steaming rice. They also helped to watch the newcomers brought by Yuncheng.
