Chapter 898: Unrest at the Base
Zhuang Mingxu did not wake up that day, and Lu Weiyi, who was originally supposed to take over the affairs of the base, had lost interest in taking over. The people in the team could not urge him at this time, so they could only stop everything.
Zhuang Mingxu's situation was not announced at the base, but the news of Lu Weiyi's return was widely spread. However, he never showed up, which made those who had been waiting for his return anxious.
The first person to come over was Zhao Gang, who conveyed to Ning Yuan the news that the suicide squad was about to take action.
"The research institute's suggestion is that you don't upgrade, but there is no specific solution for the time being. Even if the base commander comes back, he can't solve this problem. There is nothing you can do about it, right?"
Ning Yuan was also extremely worried, and as Zhuang Mingxu had not woken up yet, Lu Weiyi's condition had visibly deteriorated. Those of them who had helped Zhuang Mingxu conceal the situation in the beginning already blamed themselves, and now they were too ashamed to appear in front of him.
"I'm worried that they will cause trouble again," Zhao Gang directly expressed his thoughts.
Ning Yuan took a puff of cigarette and cursed, "How about sending them out to clean up the zombies?"
Zhao Gang shook his head and said, "As long as superpowers are in use, there is a possibility of upgrading. Nowadays, people no longer use superpowers in their lives."
He smiled bitterly, "Don't talk about them. We are afraid of death too. Who wouldn't be afraid of death if they can struggle to break through the bottom line and survive?"
"I'll urge the laboratory to think of a solution. Aren't you using the supernatural jammer now? Use it to temporarily alleviate the situation. After this stage is over, let's not talk about personal relationships, but only about interests. The base will not be willing to give up on you good knives, so they will definitely help you solve the problem."
"Okay, I'll try my best."
However, just two days after Zhao Gang left, it was Fang Tang who was the first to get into trouble. One night, he went alone to blow up a laboratory.
**
The explosion that echoed throughout the base was like a signal, and the entire base was thrown into chaos. By the time Lu Weiyi learned the news, the situation was already out of control.
"The laboratory that Sugar Cube had blown up was the one that had been attracting mutated animals. Now an entire wall there has been broken. Everyone who approached it at first fell unconscious. Not long after the smoke cleared, mutated animals began to move towards the base again."
"Li Qing from the second team led the team to hunt mutant animals. The personnel in the rear have been reshaping the walls of the laboratory, but it seems to be made of a special material. The walls built by earth-type mutants cannot block the smell from escaping."
"Do you have any idea for a solution?" Lu Weiyi looked at the person on the bed who was still unconscious and listened to the report calmly.
"We have already requested assistance from the weapons center. Lu Xi is going there with a new type of protective shield. We haven't received a response yet on the specific effect, but..."
"High-level zombies have appeared in various parts of the base, committing crimes everywhere. The surrounding environment is dark and hard to guard against. The areas where ordinary people live are completely out of control. Most of the base troops have been transferred away, but the situation is out of control for the time being, and they request support."
"Where are the people from each team?"
"Zombies also appeared in their own residential areas, and they were unable to take care of themselves."
"Go find Qin Jin and ask him to help control it."
"Yes." The man stood still and saluted, then turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned back and looked at Lu Weiyi, "Base Commander, aren't you going to take a look?"
"Base Commander, please prepare for the trip and leave immediately. Go find Qin Jin first and inform him of the situation..."
Before Lin Yimu finished speaking, a gust of wind carrying the smell of blood blew through the door, knocking the person at the door flying out. After he stood still, the Qin Jin who had just been mentioned appeared in the ward, holding Qin's mother, who was bleeding in his arms.
"Where is the healing department? Where is the healing department of the base?" Qin Jin's eyes, which were filled with white, sometimes even turned red. "Hurry up and save them, save them."
"It's chaos everywhere right now, I'm afraid we can't find anyone at all." Lin Yimu frowned when he saw the situation, "I'll let the doctor take care of it first and tell you the place. You go and see if you can find them."
"Go to Shanshen Village and find Mo Tiantian," Lu Weiyi said.
Not to mention whether the other three people can be found in the current situation, the possibility of Qin Jin being able to bring them over is also very low.
Qin Jin nodded, turned around and disappeared into the room. Lu Weiyi didn't have time to ask what was going on. As soon as he stood up and walked forward, Lin Yimu grabbed his shoulder and said, "Master, go outside. What happened today must have been premeditated. You have to go and stabilize the situation."
Lu Weiyi looked at the person on the bed without saying a word. Since it was premeditated, who could guarantee that nothing would happen here?
"The people at the base and your teammates are all waiting for you." Lin Yimu stroked Lu Weiyi's grown hair, "You said you would not let the people at the base down."
Lu Weiyi looked at the person on the bed and fell into a dilemma. He always knew clearly what he wanted, so he was extremely calm every time he made a decision. Even if those choices sometimes did not conform to the general public, he did not care at all.
But at this moment, he knew clearly in his mind that he should not leave, but familiar and unfamiliar faces appeared in his mind. These team members had followed him through life and death, and the people here were once trusted and fought against all bases for him.
"I promise……"
“You can’t guarantee that”
Lin Yimu knew that he couldn't let go of Zhuang Mingxu, and just when he was about to say that he would definitely protect him, he was interrupted by Lu Weiyi before he could finish his words.
Lin Yimu opened his mouth, then resigned himself to his fate and said nothing more. He was just an ordinary person, and the world today was too unfriendly to ordinary people. Even if he did not give up any training, he was still no match for the psychics or nature. He could only hide in this pure land and try to survive for a while.
Lin Yimu looked at Lu Weiyi's conflicted expression, his eyes gradually becoming moist, "Sorry, Master, I..."
This time, he couldn't share the burden for him.
While the two were talking, Qin Jin had already appeared in the ward holding Mo Tiantian.
"Go and get treatment." Qin Jin pushed Mo Tiantian in front of Qin's mother.
Mo Tiantian was a minor, still in a trance. When she saw the other people in the ward, she was about to speak, but was interrupted by Qin Jin's stern voice, "Treat him!"
Mo Tiantian trembled all over, and Lin Yimu immediately stepped forward to comfort her and signaled him to save people quickly.
While waiting, the sound of running was heard again outside, and someone in the corridor was shouting that he needed support.
Judging from Qin Jin's condition, he would not leave at this time, and Lu Weiyi could not just stand here and watch the people outside getting into trouble. He took a deep breath, grabbed Zhuang Aiyi and said, "Go and take your brother into the space."
"I'll guard here." Qin Jin came all the way here and saw the situation outside, so he took the initiative to say.
"No need." He didn't trust anyone to entrust the person to, "Brother Damu, you go into the space too."
Lin Yimu shook his head and said, "I have to stay and dispatch material support to everyone."
"But……"
"Don't worry, it's just logistics, nothing will happen. And if I leave and supplies are not replenished, the consequences will be disastrous."
Hearing him say this, Lu Weiyi did not try to persuade him. Instead, he walked forward, picked up Zhuang Mingxu from the bed and sent him directly into the space.
"Aiyi, Taotao, guard the big..."
"Xiao Yi..."
A weak voice sounded, and Lu Weiyi turned around abruptly, and saw Zhuang Mingxu, who had not woken up since the operation, looking at him.
"You're awake."
Lu Weiyi's tense emotions could no longer be contained and tears flowed uncontrollably. Affected by his emotions, Zhuang Aiyi also started to sob.
"Don't cry." Zhuang Mingxu wanted to get up and wipe his tears, but he had been lying there for too long and was very weak. "Listen to me."
"I should have woken up when I was here, but something in the ward suppressed my consciousness and prevented me from waking up. I know everything that happened during that time."
Lu Weiyi wiped his face, his emotions quickly subsided, and a murderous aura permeated his body, "I'll go and find out who's behind this."
"There are not many people who can have such a big impact on our base. You should go find Shen Xiuyin first. He has a newly developed new signal jammer, which is made based on Xiuyuan's controller."
Zhuang Aiyi brought a glass of water to Zhuang Mingxu and put a pillow behind his back.
"The laboratory that was blown up should be the one where the abyss mushrooms were grown. The spores inside can be used to make a film that protects against radiation, but during the maturation process the spores will attract mutated animals. I know this, but the film is more important to us, so I have let Xu Sa and others lead the team to clean up the mutated animals and have not stopped them."
"Lu Xi has a protective shield that should be able to ease the situation temporarily. Go to Shen Xiuyin's place and get the signal jammer and cover the entire base. If it works, it is very likely that the zombies are brought by An He. Capture An He first, and deal with anyone else who takes advantage of the chaos."
"If..." Zhuang Mingxu took a deep breath and said, "If the signal blocker is useless, then it is very likely that it is not the case. At that time, let the psychics blockade the entire base."
"The psychics in our base shouldn't be able to cover the entire base, right?"
"Qi Le informed the base of the method of making the protective shield, and the base has quietly covered part of the area around the base. Xing Zhou knows how to make the mental barrier and the protective shield complement each other, so you just let him arrange it."
The simple arrangement had already made Zhuang Mingxu a little exhausted. He was panting, but his eyes were unusually firm.
"If it wasn't for external unrest, then ..."
"Purge the insiders".
**
When Lu Weiyi returned to the ward, the wounds on Qin's mother's body had been repaired. Mo Tiantian huddled in a corner, looking at Qin Jin in horror.
Seeing Lu Weiyi coming over, he rushed over and hid behind him, pointing at Qin Jin and stammering, "He, he...he..."
"You are safest here, so you'd better not run around." Lu Weiyi tore it off, found the person who delivered the message in the corridor, and made the arrangements, not forgetting to ask what happened on Qin Jin's side.
Qin Jin has been staying at home with Yin Jin to accompany the children recently. He goes to Qin's father and mother's house for dinner during the day and returns to the room assigned to Yin Jin at night. Over the past few days, Qin Nian has accepted him well.
On weekdays, they would return to the villa at night to avoid making things difficult for Lu Weiyi and the others. Today, Qin's mother said she was not feeling well, so they stayed at her home.
When the explosion sounded, Qin Nian, who had been playing games all night, had just fallen asleep, and Qin Jin was talking to Yin Jin. Hearing the noise, he handed the child to Yin Jin and prepared to go out to check, when he heard a knock on the door, and then Qin's father opened the door.
When he went out, Qin's father had been pushed to the ground. The people outside were looking at Qin Jin with indignation, holding various weapons and shouting at the zombies to get out of the base.
His identity has been kept secret, and recently he has been wearing sunglasses whenever he goes out to hide his eyes. No problems have occurred in the past few days. In addition, the identities of Qin's father and mother have been kept secret, so even when the fight was fierce, no one knew that their son was the zombie king.
He didn't expect to be exposed at this time. Yin Jin, who came out, was also in a panic. He had witnessed the situation at the time, so he naturally knew how much pressure this would bring to the leaders of the base, and he was a little at a loss.
Amid the fierce rebukes from the crowd, no one knew who started the fight first, and Qin Jin immediately mobilized his fire ability to resist.
"My mother stopped me and said..." Qin Jin looked at his mother who woke up once and fell asleep again on the bed. He had an indescribable feeling for a moment, "The base takes good care of them and cannot recognize my identity."
In the end, it was Qin's father who used his supernatural powers to take them away from home, but while leaving, Qin's mother was hit in the chest by a kitchen knife thrown by a child.
Qin Jin's words were almost squeezed out from between his teeth. He turned his head in slow motion to look at Lu Weiyi, "There is no possibility of reconciliation between zombies and humans."
Zhuang Mingxu had already woken up at this time, and Lu Weiyi no longer thought about things that would not happen. He didn't know how to answer him for a moment, "We must have been plotted against. I suspect it was An He. The base has hidden the identities of the uncle and aunt very well, so it is impossible for them to know. They may have been affected by the illusion."
"I'll investigate as much as I can," he said as he walked out, "If you stabilize yourself, help us control the zombies in the base."
Qin Jin didn't say anything, and Lu Weiyi didn't force it.
When he reached the door, he remembered the situation in the ward, turned around and whispered a few words to Qin Jin. After the other party nodded, he left.
Knowing that Zhuang Mingxu was in a safe place, Lu Weiyi's whole mental state was completely different. The murderous aura in his aura made the people who followed him out excited.
When he reached the ground, the chaos around him appeared completely in front of him. Not far away, someone was stumbling towards this side. It was the person he sent out to get the signal jammer.
"The lab said there are only nine in total, three of which have not been tested yet, so their effectiveness is uncertain." The man handed over the carefully packed instrument. It was only as long as an adult's arm and looked like it was modified from the signal blockers before the apocalypse.
Lu Weiyi directly opened the map and pointed out a few places, "Send eight teams, open them and place them at these locations, have people watch them and make sure no one touches them."
"Yes, Base Commander."
"Where are Ning Yuan and the others?"
"Ning Yuan and Xu Sa led people to the back mountain to clean up the mutant animals that came. Wu Yue took Lu Xi to the bombed laboratory. Antonio and Dean took Xu Yi to rescue the people injured in the landslide. Bai Miao and Li Dongsheng went to the plantation to save the destroyed food."
"Zhou He led all members of Team 4 to guard the entrance of the base. Li Yan led Team 3 to disperse to various laboratories. Li Qing and members of Team 2 went to ordinary residential areas."
All the personnel that can be mobilized have been deployed, but the urgent problem is that these are not enough.
"How long will it take for the psychic team to arrive?"
"The person in charge, Xing Zhou, has been notified and should be on the way." While the person next to him was reporting, he looked around at the situation and then pointed into the distance, "They are here."
Not far away, Xing Zhou and all the psychics of the base army were running towards him. Even in the darkness, he could still see the huge team clearly. Lu Weiyi only knew that Zhuang Mingxu had chosen him to form a team of psychics alone, and he didn't expect that there would be so many people.
This made him wonder, are psychics so worthless?
"Base commander, are you looking for me?" Before Xing Zhouren got close, his voice came first.
