Chapter 433: Settlement
There was silence for a moment, and then the sound of artillery fire was heard, and visible fireballs were heading towards the square.
"team leader……"
"run--"
Feng Chengjun roared and turned to look at the stage. Du Ping was protecting Zhuang Mingxu and running towards the government building behind. Feng Chengjun was so excited that he wanted to use his special power to grab the person. But when he tried to move, he found that he couldn't use his special power.
"Captain, we have a jammer, but our powers are useless, what should we do?"
"Where are the jammers? Where are the extra jammers our team has?"
"Captain, where is the jammer you took away?"
Jammer...
Of course, it’s for the outside helpers.
Feng Chengjun rolled on the ground and ran out of the square, trying to leave. However, he found that whenever he got close to the perimeter, there was machine gun fire. Anyone who took a step forward was killed on the spot.
It was the first time he saw a crystal core gun shooting at a person. The muzzle would melt in a circle after it passed through, and a fist-sized hole would form at the location where the gun was shot. The aroma of cooked meat came along with the hissing of fat, and along with screams, it rang in his ears like a death warrant.
At this time, the artillery fire in the distance had stopped attacking, and the surroundings were filled with teammates who had been burned to ashes, or people who were rolling and wailing, trying to put out the flames on their bodies.
Zhou He led hundreds of people in uniform who rushed out from all directions and surrounded them tightly. From time to time, he shot at those who tried to leave. After a sound, another body was found on the ground. Soon, the area around the square was crowded with people half a person high.
"Keep an eye on them, don't let any of them go," Zhou He ordered and turned to the government building, "Dean, hurry up, Captain Zhuang Ji seems to be injured."
"Here I come!" A cheerful voice sounded from beside him, and a short boy, also in uniform, trotted behind him.
Du Ping carried Zhuang Mingxu out of the government building on his back. Taotao, who was beside him, grabbed Zhuang Mingxu's trouser leg and shouted, "Uncle, little uncle" when she saw the person coming.
"Coming, coming," Dean responded, putting his hand on Zhuang Mingxu.
"Thank you." Zhou He was standing far away and saw clearly that Zhuang Mingxu's leg was injured. If it weren't for this man carrying him and running fast, it would have been difficult for him to avoid being affected by the artillery fire.
"Partners should." Du Ping looked at Dean, "Is it serious?"
"My calf bone is fractured and two ribs are broken," Dean said indignantly, his supernatural powers moving rapidly.
"Hurry up and heal the burn on my arm," Zhuang Mingxu urged.
"This piece of clothing has melted into the flesh. We need to dig out the bad flesh first," Dean explained haltingly.
“Then dig now.”
"This environment..." Even though Dean was not a professional medical student, after so much forced study, he had some knowledge of a doctor and felt that this kind of surgery should be done in an operating room.
"If the city center is also being plotted against, Xiaoyi will definitely think of something happening here. I think he is about to come back, so don't delay," Zhuang Mingxu urged, taking out an anesthetic from the space.
He had not originally intended to let Lu Weiyi participate in this matter. The people he sent out were also involved in the base and had relatively safe relationships. He thought of getting rid of these jumping clowns while he was away, and he wouldn't say anything when he came back and everything was settled.
But if I come back at this time, it would be hard to say.
Dean said nothing more and started to take action immediately. Zhuang Mingxu said to Zhou He, "Watch them and then judge them one by one."
"Yes," Zhou Heying said.
Zhuang Mingxu quickly took out the walkie-talkie, tuned in, and asked, "Qingyue, what's the situation over there?"
"Ning Yuan and his teammates brought back a lot of zombies and started fighting with the psychics below. Zheng Jun asked us to protect the wall to cut off their retreat and let the zombies consume the enemy. Ning Yuan took his teammates to support Qingji."
"Follow Zheng Jun's plan."
After Zhuang Mingxu asked about Gu Qingji and Lin Yimu's situation, he just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the buzzing of an airplane coming closer and closer in the sky.
"That...is that an enemy fighter plane?" Zhou He asked in disbelief.
Zhuang Mingxu only took a glance and hurriedly urged Dean, "Hurry up, it's going to be bad."
"This can't be quick." Dean remained unhurried, looking meticulous.
Zhuang Mingxu watched the plane hanging in the air, the cabin door opened, and someone slid down the rope ladder. Standing in the front was the young base commander of their base.
**
The situation at the base has been basically under control. Lu Weiyi brought the second team back and soon detained all the people who caused the riot. Only then did Lu Weiyi know Zhuang Mingxu's plan.
Ever since he knew someone was trying to seize power, he had already been planning to clean up the restless elements in the base. But Du Ping happened to come to him for help, and the two of them decided to take advantage of the situation.
"Why does he want to cooperate with us?" Lu Weiyi asked Zhuang Mingxu while looking at his teammates who were still in shock and huddled together in the villa.
"He and Zheng Chengjun are cousins. They have been supporting each other since the end of the world, so their relationship is naturally impeccable. At that time, he took him with him after his superpowers could be upgraded, thinking that with two S-level superpowers in the team, the team would be more stable in the base. Who knew that after the upgrade was successful, he gradually felt that the two deputy captains seemed to have a closer relationship."
"He leads the team out all year round, and matters within the base are handled by Li Feng. After noticing this, he sent his confidants to keep a close eye on them, and discovered that they were in contact with many teams with ill intentions. By the time he knew about this, many of the teams under him had already participated, and his own voice in the team gradually weakened."
"Either cooperate with them and wait to be cleared out later, or cooperate with us and clear them out together," Zhuang Mingxu waved his hand, "Everyone can make this choice."
"More importantly, when he was upgrading, he found that it was very dangerous to just purify the crystal core at S level. It is conceivable that SS level would not be much safer. As the only SS level psychic today, he had to hesitate for the sake of his own life."
Seeing that Lu Weiyi didn't say anything, Zhuang Mingxu knew he was guilty and took the initiative to say, "I asked Ning Yuan and the others to ambush outside the base to prevent any external collaborators from invading. I thought that by then, the five S-level psychics and an A-level team would be enough. By then, they would cooperate with the Qingyue Zheng army to completely stop the enemy. Who knew..."
"Who knew that the other side would send more than 10,000 people at once..." Ning Yuan added for him, "We were all stunned when we noticed it. We were afraid that the other party would find out, so we didn't dare to drive away directly. We couldn't contact the base at that time."
"So you found a way to attract the zombies," Li Zhuang summarized for them.
"Yes, knowing that the zombies in Pingjin City have been almost cleared, we turned to the southwest. When we came back from Cangnan before, I remember there were quite a few zombies there. There is no large base along the coast, so there will definitely not be special people to clean it up. Fortunately, the bet was right. You can't imagine how devastated I was when I found out that the number of people coming was ten times what I expected." Ning Yuan shed a tear of sadness.
The original plan was for them to work together with Gu Qingyue and his group to deal with the incoming mutants, but they didn't expect that the number of people exceeded so much that it would be difficult to attack directly. While they attracted the zombies to suppress the enemy, they quickly took the opportunity to return to the base.
When they came back, they just happened to meet Xu Chu and his men going to support the ice wall. The soldiers on the West Island had already been deployed at the North Island outposts and uncultivated areas in advance. There was continuous artillery fire on the North Island, so they knew that the plan here was going smoothly. They turned around and rushed to Gu Qingji.
"Although there were some disappointments, it was completed successfully in the end." Ning Yuan stretched and stood up. "Is there anything else I can do? I've been lying outside in the snow for several days. I'm sleepy and tired."
"Several teammates who had been busy for a few days went to sleep one after another. The remaining ones discovered that something was wrong with the two base leaders and left one after another. Soon, only Lu Weiyi and Zhuang Mingxu were left in the living room.
"Are you angry?" The wound on Zhuang Mingxu's arm had been healed, but the skin color was obviously different, and one could still tell how serious the injury was at the time.
Seeing Lu Weiyi staring at him without saying a word, he pulled down his sleeves to cover his arms, pulled him over and explained, "I wanted to discuss this with you at first, but then when I saw you were so angry, I thought of sending you out. By the time your team returned, the problem had been solved, and you didn't want them to be an eyesore. Who knew that people had been planted on your side as well."
He held Lu Weiyi's head with both hands and pressed it against his, "I see that you've been too busy this year. I can help you solve all the things you don't want to do and the people you don't want to face."
"Didn't expect it to fail?" Lu Weiyi was not moved by his love words at all.
Zhuang Mingxu touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lu Weiyi knew that this man was a male chauvinist in his bones and had liked to be relied on since he was a child. He didn't say anything more and told Li Zhuang the results of the interrogation. Coincidentally, Li Qing also brought the preliminary interrogation results.
"Several bases are involved in this incident, including the Kyoto forces, the Pingjin base, the Mengbei base, the Changhong base, and the nomadic hunting psychics, all the bases along the coastline are involved." Li Qing handed over the list obtained from the interrogation, "It may not be the intention of the base, but some individual forces are indeed involved."
After Lu Weiyi looked at them one by one, he handed them to Zhuang Mingxu.
Neither of them spoke, so Li Qing could only ask again, "What should we do with these captured psychics? And what about the families of some of the participants in the base?"
"How many people were affected by the base? Have you figured it out?" Lu Weiyi asked first without answering his question.
"Two thousand two hundred and eighty-one ordinary people were infected and died by zombies, seventeen soldiers from the base were sacrificed, and more than seven hundred people were injured. This is only the situation within the base, not the city center." Li Qing's face was heavy with grief.
Zhuang Mingxu held the list of casualties in his hand, gnashing his teeth, and spoke after a long while.
"Count the family members of all the participants, withhold the supplies and compensate the families of those injured and sacrificed this time, and drive them all out of the base in front of these psychics. Let everyone in the base, including ordinary people, watch. Afterwards, all the psychics in the base will be executed." Zhuang Mingxu threw the list on the table with an indifferent expression.
