Chapter 166 Joint Operations
-In the emergency shelter on the 8th floor.
There were frightened, rapid gasps one after another, mixed with a faint sob.
Wu Jiaqian held back her tears and asked, "Minister, what should we do now? Will they... rush in..."
Li Chenglin said "Shh!", signaling her to be quiet.
The shelter is built with special materials that are very hard and tough. Even though the door panels look thin and not that strong, they can withstand the impact of mutants.
Just now at the observation window downstairs, in just a few minutes, the bulletproof glass and the protective net were washed down.
Too many!
Since the establishment of the Tianchi base, we have never seen so many different types of riots, as if an invisible hand was controlling them.
The six of them only had time to run upstairs and had no time to shut down the defense system on the 8th floor. As for the protective net on the 7th floor above, Li Chenglin restarted it after they came down.
Now they are trapped in the middle! With a group of manic mutants!
Li Chenglin was very glad that he had acted cautiously. If the base had let these mutants rush in without any preparation, the consequences would have been disastrous...
After a while, the breathing of several people gradually became steady, and their general outlines could be seen in the darkness.
Feng Wei tiptoed to Li Chenglin's side and said in a low voice, "Minister, I had already uploaded the information before it came in..."
He didn't finish his words, but his meaning was self-evident. Even if they all died here, it would be worth it as long as the data collected was useful.
Feng Wei's words made Wu Jiaqian sob uncontrollably, and she could only cover her mouth desperately, for fear that she would cry out. She was the only female researcher present, and Minister Li had already made it clear to her before she came, but she still made the choice resolutely.
Her father died in an experimental project three years ago, and today may reveal a corner of this mystery, so Wu Jiaqian must follow.
"Can we wait for rescue?"
Her words expressed the thoughts of the others.
"The deputy base commander will definitely send someone to rescue us as soon as possible, don't worry..."
Before Li Chenglin finished speaking, there was a dent in the closed iron door with a clang, followed by another loud bang, and the teeth-grinding sound of metal deformation was like a heavy hammer, hammering everyone's heart.
Wu Jiaqian could no longer control her fear and screamed “Ahhhhhhhhhhh!”
The door can't hold up at all!!
As the banging outside the door became more and more frequent, screams of fear rose and fell in the darkness.
Under this situation, it would be too late for rescue and they were finished!
"Don't be afraid, we will definitely hold on until rescue!"
Even Li Chenglin himself didn't believe his words of comfort, and his whole body was shaking.
…
On the other side, He Jiuran acted decisively and ordered everyone to evacuate immediately.
When the surveillance camera on the -9th floor captured the scene of the paralysis, only the follow-up combat team was left to clean up.
Lin Chuchu had already evacuated a distance and was waiting for deployment outside the base.
He Jiuran ended the call with his superior, his eyes briefly passed over Lin Chuchu's face, and finally stopped at the combat team member, and said in a deep voice:
"According to the signal source uploaded by the research center system, their last location was near the emergency shelter on the -8th floor, so there is reason to believe that they have escaped into the shelter."
"Due to signal interference, the underground situation is unclear. The rescue mission is very dangerous and there is an unknown risk of infection. Is there anyone willing to go down with me to rescue people?"
"Me!" Wang Xun was the first to stand up.
"Captain! I do!"
"Me too!"
"And me!"
…
All thirty-five combat team members took two steps forward, their eyes determined.
He Jiuran's cold eyebrows moved slightly, revealing a faint smile to cover up the sadness that flashed across his eyes.
"The first row is in line! Follow me down to rescue them!"
"yes!"
Drink in unison.
"One minute, check the weapons and ammunition you are carrying!"
"yes!"
These people...
Lin Chuchu felt a lump in her throat. Perhaps He Jiuran believed her, but he still made the same choice. However, the number of people was only eight, not more than twenty people as last time.
At this time, Lu Feng on the side said sternly, "I'll go with you."
As they passed each other, he whispered to her, "You evacuate first."
"team leader……"
Lu Feng raised his hand and touched her hair. "Wait for me at the Ninth Military Region."
Out of his understanding of Lu Feng and the tacit understanding they had when they fought together, He Jiuran did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
? ?
Lin Chuchu felt like she was just a clown!
After all the fuss, they finally went down to rescue people...but she couldn't say that she wouldn't save people.
She came back wearing it for nothing?
Lin Chuchu's blood pressure soared.
There must be a way! Think fast! Think fast!
According to He Jiuran's previous description, the beast tide had already retreated when they went down, and only Xiaobo's variants were still wandering around. However, according to the systematic investigation, it has not retreated much at present.
There are only a few of them going down there. Let alone saving people, they are basically going to die.
No! This is absolutely not possible!
"Host, if you keep the detection function on, the mutation will not retreat..."
*! Forget about this!
So these mutations lasted for so long because of her attraction...
Lin Chuchu slapped her forehead and shouted, "Deputy Base Commander! I have something to say!"
He Jiuran's eyes suddenly darkened, thinking that she was trying to persuade him, but Lin Chuchu frowned and showed an unprecedented seriousness, "I have a solution!"
"But we need everyone to work together!"
…
——
Someone in the darkness whimpered, "I don't want to die yet!", which resonated with the audience. Several researchers gathered together and almost cried their heads off.
With a "clang" sound, the bottom of the iron door had separated from the door frame and could no longer rebound and close, revealing a gap as wide as a foot. The gap got wider as it went down, and a bald, hairless head with a pointed mouth and fangs was already visible through the widest part.
Its flashing red eyes stared at the people in the room, its sharp beak slightly opened, and it let out a high-pitched cry.
“Wuwuwu…”
There is nothing to be ashamed of when death is imminent. A researcher cried out in despair, "Help... Someone please save us..."
While crying bitterly, the head shrank back and never came in again.
Through the gaps they saw a tide of beasts rushing out, and all kinds of cries penetrated their eardrums, shaking the ground.
Li Chenglin was desperate. "Could it be that they broke through the defense line?"
…
The defense line was not breached, it was closed artificially.
Three vehicles formed a triangle and drove at high speed around the base, followed by a large group of mutants.
Some of the small and extremely fast mutants were eliminated one by one by the team members on the vehicle, while the remaining large force followed them in circles relentlessly.
After more than ten minutes, Lin Chuchu began to sweat coldly.
She kept the system's detection function turned on, with the aim of leading them together.
Lu Feng observed her face while driving. Seeing her pale lips, he felt a dull pain in his heart.
"Chu Chu, help is on the way, it will take at most twenty minutes."
"I can hold on!"
It was like a long tug-of-war. If she relaxed at all, she would lose everything.
Sweat slid down her brows, wet her eyelashes, and flowed into her eyes. The burning pain was accompanied by blurred vision. Lin Chuchu was already at the end of her strength.
Time passed minute by minute, and the long-term mental overdraft caused her to begin to have auditory hallucinations.
She seemed to hear Lu Feng shouting something, followed by the sound of fireworks exploding. The sound was so loud that her eyes rolled back and she fell straight down...
