Chapter 101 Night Raid
Luo Yin was dragged along by him and started running.
Along the way, she finally met the rest of the people in the base.
Several soldiers who were in charge of cooking jumped out of the food serving window and rushed out with their weapons.
A row of hidden sentries stood guard around the corner next door, and Captain Mu Chenmu, who had just gotten out of bed and hadn't even tidied his hair.
"No, what's wrong?"
"You're not going anywhere right now. Just stay in your room and wait for me to come back, understand?"
Hossen pushed her directly into the room, gave her some serious instructions, and then rushed out after her.
Before Luo Yin could even extend her hand, she had vanished.
As she listened to the alarm blaring through the night sky, she couldn't help but feel anxious.
With such a high level of security, there must be something important happening at the base. I wonder how dangerous it is?
I hope they are all safe and sound!
Luo Yin stood at the door waiting, occasionally hearing a few heavy gunshots.
When she realized what it was, her heart immediately clenched.
If they're really going to use their weapons, then they've really encountered a problem. Could it be some kind of ferocious beast in this desolate wilderness?
But aren't these all protected animals? How could they be so reckless as to use weapons?
As she was thinking this, the window behind her was suddenly smashed open.
"Bang—crash!"
"ah!"
The sharp crack of the glass shards startled her, and after a moment, she instinctively looked towards the window to see what had caused it.
But all that could be seen outside was pitch black; nothing could be seen at all.
Luo Yin felt it was better to keep her distance, no matter how close she got.
She quietly retreated to her original spot and leaned against the door, waiting for them to return.
Time passed slowly, and the sounds outside grew more urgent. Several booming sounds exploded in succession, and Luo Yin guessed what kind of explosions were making.
The next moment, her vision went completely black.
The circuit breaker tripped!
Oh no, the power's out!
Luo Yin leaned against the door, clearly hearing her own breathing become much more rapid.
In the dark and unfamiliar base, she was all alone, hiding there, having to listen to the sounds around her. Luo Yin kept swallowing her saliva, trying to calm her racing heart.
But what happened next almost made her heart race again.
"Bang bang"
"Bang bang"
The familiar and clear sound of an impact rang in her ears.
That place was by the small window.
Luo Yin's fingernails dug tightly into the door. What on earth was in that place?
As Luo Yin thought about it, she touched the wall, preparing to push the door into someone else's room. Couldn't she just leave this place?
As she left, she clearly heard something actually rise to the ground; the sounds of objects scraping against each other and shattering glass clanging were distinct and terrifying, telling her, "It's here! It's here!" "Hiss!"
"Aaaaaaahhhhh~"
Luo Yin lowered her voice, suppressing a scream.
She tried her best not to think about the one that best fit, and her legs went weak as she slowly shuffled to the next room.
I reached for the familiar door, grasped the doorknob, but couldn't open it.
Luo Yin thought this should be the shop next to the wooden team, so she walked forward again. As soon as she reached the shop next door, she heard the sound of spicy strips.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
Loin is certain, it's here too!
She simply started walking, not caring about whether she stayed or not.
She strode quickly outside, not daring to run, afraid that making too much noise would attract attention.
But after walking a short distance, she was startled when she stepped on something soft and slippery, which made her scalp tingle.
"What the hell?! Help!"
Luo Yin rushed forward, barely feeling the foot that had stepped on something.
She didn't know where to go; it was pitch black all the way, and she couldn't tell which way was ahead or behind.
She just ran, running as long as there was a road.
He ran until he was too exhausted to run any further and stopped panting near a large iron gate.
She listened carefully until the sound of spicy snacks disappeared from her ears, and only then could she breathe a sigh of relief.
Luo Yin's mood had only calmed down for a few seconds before it quickly turned heavy again.
She simply couldn't imagine that the scene outside must be even more chaotic.
Luo Yin didn't know how long she had been waiting, but she felt that the surroundings were unusually quiet, and she was all alone in the quiet deep forest.
She quickly patted her cheeks to remind herself not to get distracted.
So he quietly headed back the way he came.
After getting used to it for a while, she could barely make out some of the outlines of her surroundings.
Especially regarding the general direction, she realized that she seemed to have wandered into a very strange place.
The structure of the base is usually the same, with the same floors and rooms, only differing in size.
But as she touched the wall in front of her, the path became increasingly circular and meandered downwards.
Really?
She opened her arms and stretched out as far as she could to touch the rocks on either side, but the more she examined, the more surprised she became.
It's really not straight and complete, so how come she didn't notice it before?
Luo Yin felt inexplicably scared, but after thinking about it, she realized that this place was definitely not simple.
The more effort you put in, the better the results will be.
An alarm bell rang in my mind, and I immediately sprinted to one side.
Just as she was about to cross, a hand reached out from the shadows and gripped her shoulder tightly.
She could clearly feel the damp, rotten smell beside her as a large hand gripped her tightly with increasing force.
Luo Yin never expected that other people would suddenly appear, and at that moment she almost couldn't help but scream.
Overwhelmed by fear and panic, she struggled but couldn't push him away. She did hear the person opposite her groan a few times, followed by a weak and feeble voice.
"Go and inform Director You immediately, things are in chaos again in District 10."
"Ah, what did you say? I can't hear you."
Luo Yin clearly heard a hoarse male voice.
Finding that she could communicate, she temporarily suppressed her fear and used her strength to pull him away. When she received no response, she realized that he seemed to have a fishy smell on him.
Is he injured?
Oh dear, it's so dark I can't see anything!
Luo Yin kicked the wall in anger, and then thought of "the 10th floor is in chaos," what does that mean?
Where did he come from?
Forget about all that, let's get him out of here first.
As Luo Yin dragged and pulled the person out in the dark, the battle outside was also reaching its climax.
Looking towards the first group of defenders, one can see animal carcasses lying in patches beneath the high-voltage netting, starting from the outermost perimeter.
Most of them were spicy snacks that had been burned and electrocuted.
Poisonous and non-poisonous, first-level protected and second-level protected, thumb-sized and arm-thick, countless creatures rushed into the base, one after another, risking their lives.
The logistics soldiers who were cleaning up the area were horrified. They had been picking up trash every day, but they never imagined there was so much left in the mountains.
"Squad leader, are these things not afraid of dying? They're acting like madmen!"
"Shh, don't say anything like that, hurry up and get it out of your skin."
"Make sure that not a single one survives!"
The logistics squad leader and two comrades tied up the bundles of burlap sacks tightly. Seeing so many spicy strips, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"What's the situation now? Has that thing appeared?"
"Report to Captain Feng: The target disappeared after appearing in the wild forest an hour ago. However, several more groups of ferocious wild boars have been spotted in different locations."
"Handle this quickly and tell others to be on high alert."
"yes!"
In the flickering firelight, Feng Yingwei's tightly furrowed brows appeared even more solemn and serious.
He knew these were minor incidents; the crucial measures were yet to come.
Under the cover of night, the Ailao Mountains were like a raging north wind, biting and piercing them relentlessly, trying to devour them all.
What used to be a poisonous fog that occurred every few months has now become a monthly occurrence, several times a month, and even now, a continuous week. As a result, more and more animals deep in the jungle have become extremely aggressive.
They would attack the outer perimeter of the base every night.
First, smaller species led the way, with herds of wild boars charging and butting around, breaking through the barrier. Then came the main army, with monkeys and apes frantically biting, golden pheasants with bloodshot eyes, and countless flocks of birds screaming and crying blood.
Team Leader Feng, who doesn't recognize any animals, has seen no fewer than a hundred animal carcasses during this period.
The white peacock and the green peacock plucked each other's feathers until they bled to death.
This was the scene that left the deepest impression on Captain Feng.
He could still recall that scene, the beautiful peacock that had perished before they could even make a move.
They've gone mad! They've all gone mad!
This mountain has gone completely mad!!!
Hosen had been following and fighting ever since he came out, and when he discovered what was on the outside, he suppressed all his questions.
At first, all we needed to do was use the electric grid and fire to control the situation.
Even with such a large area, some fish still managed to slip through the net, as well as the area where the hole was dug.
"No, these things have gone mad, we have to fight them!"
"Don't hold back, just kill them."
Fearing he might not understand the situation, someone shouted at him.
Hosen was stunned for only a few seconds before quickly following the others to clear the area in front of him completely, but soon an explosion came from the area behind him.
It turned out that two gorillas, each nearly three meters tall, were attacking the base.
Luo Yin was unaware of the dangers outside, but she sensed that the man seemed to be on the verge of death.
Normally, pulling on it would make some noise, but now there was no reaction at all. She carefully checked its breathing and found it to be frighteningly faint.
In most cases, the blood only flows in and doesn't flow out, and the heartbeat is very slow and weak.
Luo Yin knew in her heart that this was bad; if something went wrong, she wouldn't be able to explain herself.
She quickly put the person down on the ground, gently patted him to wake him up, reminded him not to speak, and asked about his injuries.
"Don't fall asleep yet! Tell me your name and show me the way. Maybe I can still save you."
"Cough cough, pfft... my chest..."
"Oh, your chest hurts. Sorry, it's too dark to see."
The man slowly woke up, regaining some energy. His breathing quickened as he slowly reached for his pocket.
"Hey, what are you looking for? Let me help you. Oh, by the way, I haven't asked your name yet."
The man spoke slowly but with emotion, "I've never seen you before at the base. Did you arrive recently?"
Luo Yin took a small square box from his hand, followed by a small round bottle about the size of her palm.
"What are these? Are they medicines?"
She shook the box and heard the man say, "No, you must give the contents of that small box to Old Man Chen Dong, the blind old man."
Luo Yin was surprised to hear a familiar name from him; she knew it!
"The other one can be used to start a fire. You can go now!"
Luo Yin pulled off the cap, and the smell of kerosene, carried by the firelight, illuminated her vision.
Her face lit up with joy, and she shone the light on him.
The person who was about to ask her to leave ended up staring at her intently.
Both of them were in a sorry state, their bodies and faces covered in sweat. Luo Yin exclaimed, "Brother Meng, it's you!"
"My God, how much blood have you lost?!"
"Xiao Luo, what a coincidence!"
Luo Yin thought to herself, "Isn't this a coincidence? I should have guessed that he would come after I ran into Brother Du and Old Chen earlier. But I never imagined he would end up like this."
"Alright, I stumbled into this place in the dark. Do you know the way? Let's go to my lounge first. There's medicine there that you can use."
Meng Shaoyuan thought he was going to bleed to death here, but he never expected to run into Luo Yin.
He nodded, but then waved his hand and said, "I'll get up myself."
If he hadn't known her at first, it wouldn't have mattered; he could have let the young girl drag him along however she wanted. But now, he felt a little embarrassed.
"Brother Meng, stop struggling. I really don't have much strength left. Get up quickly."
Before she finished speaking, she pulled him up and left, almost causing Meng Shaoyuan to stumble and fall.
"Wait, let go of me first, I can do it myself."
Meng Shaoyuan's tone softened considerably, clearly pained, because Xiao Luo's words had aggravated his injury.
"Bear with it, we have to leave quickly, this place is very strange!"
As Luo Yin spoke, her hand movements became much smaller.
No sooner had the two left than the large iron gate was slowly pushed open from the inside.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
After overcoming numerous difficulties, the two arrived at her lounge only to find it quiet and empty, with all her belongings gone.
"Brother Meng, look at these, they're all for treating external injuries, and this is for stopping bleeding, take them quickly."
Luo Yin quickly took out her backpack and handed him the medicine bottle.
"Thank you, I can do it myself."
"But why are you standing at the door and not coming in?"
After taking the pills and applying hemostatic powder, he looked at Meng Shaoyuan, who seemed to be in better spirits, and asked...
"Ah, I'm afraid of snakes."
Brother Meng was taken aback for a moment, then forced a laugh, "Haha, that's true."
"However, it should be gone now."
"Oh, how so?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a "click" sound, and the light above her head turned on.
"Oh dear, the power's back on!"
Light truly is a great help in dispelling darkness. Luo Yin could see his wounds clearly at this moment, and his clothes were soaked in dark color. His face was frighteningly pale.
"Brother Meng, your injury is too serious."
"Here's what you'll do. You eat some dried meat to replenish your strength, and I'll go outside to find someone to rescue you."
She handed him the last small packet of dried meat, thinking that if he didn't eat something good now, he might die.
It's a pity I didn't have any brown sugar water on hand, otherwise I would have given it to him regardless of his gender.
"I don't need it, you can take it back."
Brother Meng waved his hand in refusal, but then ran away as soon as she finished speaking.
"Here you go, eat this. Look how haggard you look. Wait for me, I'll be back soon. Just stay here."
After finding the light, she circled around a few times and finally found the main group.
Calling it a large group is a bit of an exaggeration, but it's true that there were people there.
"Comrade, there's a wounded soldier over there who's bleeding profusely. Could one of you take him away for treatment?"
"We've already done some basic hemostasis, but we still need to do it professionally."
The squad leader, covered in gunpowder and covered in dirt, was about to tell her to go back when he heard this.
He glanced at the people beside him, then found a comrade and asked him to go with him.
"Thank you so much, please come with me!"
When she led her people back, she ran into Captain Mu and Captain Huo, who were also returning.
"Hey, where have you been? I told you not to run around."
Mu Chen reeked of blood and spoke to her in a cold, hard tone.
"Captain Amu, Captain Huo, you've arrived too. Come with me quickly to rescue them."
She ran towards the house, and the people behind her naturally followed.
"Quick, someone come quick! Brother Meng has fainted."
With her shout, the crowd erupted once again.
The chaos that day caused the base to lose several high-voltage power grids.
The usual patching and mending would last for three years, but by this time it was no longer usable.
Luo Yin was so tired from her busy schedule that she wanted to sleep as soon as she leaned back in her chair, and the noise from the people around her did not wake her up.
She didn't know how long she had slept, but when she felt her back and waist ache, she realized that only four hours had passed.
Thinking about what happened before I went to sleep, I glanced at the people who were still in the meeting.
Yes, I remember a few hours ago after we sent Xiao Meng to get treatment, they were taken to see Old Chen again.
After handing over the items, Luo Yin received the devastating news that they would be leaving in two days.
Yes, two days later, the nine-person team officially set off in the early morning!
The team was led by three veterans, Chen, Du, and Meng, who were responsible for solving the practical problems encountered. The main force was then handled by Captain Feng, Captain Mu, Qin Chuan, Liu Cheng, and Captain Huo, with her at the very end.
"That's all for now. Get the equipment ready, and then get some rest."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it myself."
"By the way, Elder Chen, what about the things that Xiao Meng brought up..."
Director You stopped talking as soon as he noticed Luo Yin, who was sleepy and lost her way.
"Alright everyone, go back and rest!"
