Qiao Xuejun: "Why do sea monsters want us to become stronger with you? Won't they eat you?"
The mutant said quickly, "Of course they won't eat it. We can help them understand humans. You can too."
Qiao Xuejun continued through the observation window, "Who knows if you're lying? You're trying to trick us into becoming a dish for the sea monster."
Mutant: "How could that be? Aren't we all fine?"
"And it's so cold, you can only stay indoors, but we can stay outside. This is the best proof." The mutant said, "We are not meant to be eaten. We can really become stronger!"
The mutant blinked, his pupils small. "You see, you are not protected by the base at all. There are outposts and guns outside the base, but you are outside the protection circle."
"They don't want to protect you. In times of natural disasters, it's better to rely on yourself than on anyone else!"
He clenched his fist and said, "Relying on your own strength is the most stable."
Qiao Xuejun: “…” She spoke quite passionately.
Qiao Xuejun: "But, it's so cold outside. You can bear it, but we can't. How are we going to get to the sea monster camp?"
The mutant outside rolled his eyes and said, "Come out first. I have a solution."
Qiao Xuejun could tell that Chunchun was lying, even without Zhao Xian's help. She couldn't even come up with a lie, so she just wanted to trick her out.
Regardless of life or death.
I guess they really came out to buy food for the sea monster.
Qiao Xuejun nodded: "Step back a little first."
The tall mutant was a little suspicious: "Are you coming out with us?"
So easy?
The short one was a little happy and said to Qiao Xuejun: "I'm backing off. Come out soon."
Qiao Xuejun made a gesture to Kuang Qianli.
Kuang Qianli's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and pressed a button on the wall.
The weapon they upgraded last time is right next to the door! It's embedded in the wall and can be used as soon as it is activated.
The position where Qiao Xuejun commanded the mutant to stand was just within the rifle's attack range!
After Kuang Qianli pressed the start button, a trigger appeared on the wall. There was also an aiming screen above it with a crosshair in the center.
Kuang Qianli aimed the crosshairs at the mutant.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out and the bullet hit the mutant's body.
There was a human figure opposite him, and Kuang Qianli hesitated a little before shooting, but when he saw the mutant's fangs and yellow eyes, he pulled the trigger without any psychological burden.
This isn't the first time either.
Besides, these hateful mutants just wanted to trick them out into the snow and kill them.
When another mutant saw his companion being shot, he immediately turned and ran away.
Kuang Qianli turned the gun and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
The distance was very close, and he was also hit and fell to the ground.
The mutant who was shot was buried in the snow by the impact, and soon the blood dyed the snow red.
He twitched on the ground, and then crawled down the mountain in the forest very quickly.
The same with the other one.
Kuang Qianli was shocked: "What kind of weird creature is this?"
He hit a few more times, but he was not a professional after all, so his attacks on moving targets were not very accurate.
After a few breaths, the two mutants disappeared, and only a trail of blood could be seen winding down in the snow.
After confirming that he couldn't hit the target, Kuang Qianli reluctantly put away his gun.
Kuang Qianli: "He wasn't killed."
Qiao Xuejun: "They have very high physical strength."
It was the same thing when Zhao Xian fought the mutant last time. The first shot didn't cause any fatal injuries to the mutant, and he didn't even take a breath when speaking.
It was later that he died after being shot in the throat.
These two are indeed strong and can crawl on the ground even after being hit.
Qiao Xuejun: "Say hello to the zoo next door, be careful."
A few people at the zoo also stayed at home with supplies for two months. However, their building materials were the same as the shelter, so as long as they didn't leave, they would be fine.
Wang Juanfeng took out the walkie-talkie and contacted the staff at the nearby zoo.
Qiao Xuejun also took out the walkie-talkie and reported the unexpected situation to Zhao Xian.
Zhao Xian: "The patrol booths inside the base's defense wall are all on duty. They can't get up here."
He said, "Be careful and don't go out. Mutants are very fast and powerful, and you might suffer a loss if you confront them head-on."
Qiao Xuejun: "I know."
After Zhao Xian gave his instructions, he began to share intelligence: "They broke through the defensive wall and tried to enter the base to cause damage. They did the same to the sea fort, hoping to tear down the log wall to make it easier for the sea monster to attack."
However, there were guns mounted on the deck of the sea fortress, firing at the area below. The mutants knew what to do and did not dare to move forward even with their nine lives.
Zhao Xian paused for a moment before telling Qiao Xuejun, "They plucked some purple flowers."
That was planted by Qiao Xuejun and his men with great effort.
"..." Qiao Xuejun was shocked when she heard this. "How many were taken out?"
Zhao Xian: "It's okay. I pulled out four or five plants and then gave up. After all, the soil is frozen now, so it's difficult to pull them out. If you don't take proper measures, they will still be contaminated with violaceous alkali."
Qiao Xuejun: "That's okay."
Zhao Xian: "They also tried to set it on fire, but failed. It's hard to light a fire in this weather."
Qiao Xuejun: "That's good. If they were all pulled out and burned, all my hard work would be in vain." As she spoke, she pondered, "Are they paving the way for the sea monster? Pulling out the purple flowers and destroying the wall will allow the sea monster to come up."
Zhao Xian: "High probability."
He said, "Don't worry, the base can handle it."
After exchanging information with Zhao Xian, Qiao Xuejun put away the walkie-talkie.
The mutants targeted all human bases. They went to Hongmei Mountain to cause trouble and also went to the sea fortress.
Is this their mission?
Ever since the two mutants were injured and left, no one has come to Qiao Xuejun's shelter.
However, mutants continued to appear in the Sea Fort and the First Base, trying to repeatedly test and harass them.
Just like before, they were still loudly promoting the benefits of joining the sea monster camp, working tirelessly and very hard.
