Chapter 109
Bai Chuan originally wanted to continue fooling Lou Tiannan, but Elena noticed something from Lou Tiannan's expression.
"You... know?" Elena asked.
Lou Tiannan glanced at them both coldly.
Baichuan also realized it without Elena having to say anything.
The three of them looked at each other, knowing what was going on.
Bai Chuan patted Lou Tiannan's shoulder as if they were good brothers, and said with a sigh of relief: "Well, you should have told me earlier. It's a pity that Elena and I still tried to hide it - uh..."
He was halfway through his words when he noticed that Lou Tiannan and Elena's eyes were on his hand on Lou Tiannan's shoulder.
Lou Tiannan brushed off Bai Chuan's arm that was resting on his shoulder and said, "Meet in the conference room in three minutes."
Bai Chuan's hand missed, and he turned around a little too late, frowning and glaring at Lou Tiannan's back. Every strand of his green hair radiated dissatisfaction with Lou Tiannan. He said angrily, "What's his attitude?!"
"Hmph," he snorted again, "I was kind enough to ask my boss to make him a bionic man to comfort him after his wife's death. But now it seems that there's no need to waste my time on that kindness!"
"Give him... another bionic man?" Elena felt that something was not right with Baichuan's words.
But Bai Chuan said as a matter of course: "Yes, doesn't he like the bionic man named Lin Bai? That was made by my boss. It wouldn't be difficult for my boss to make another one for him. With my boss's ability, making an identical one is definitely not difficult."
I just don’t know if the system can be set up the same as the previous Lin Bai, the model will definitely be the same!
It's not uncommon to like anything in the end times. Baichuan accepted the fact that Lou Tiannan liked Lin Bai, a bionic man.
Elena looked at him hesitantly and said, "Have you ever thought that Lou Tiannan might like the Shen Xing who made Lin Bai?"
Bai Chuan heard this and said decisively, "Absolutely impossible. He's an Alpha, and my boss is an Enigma. They're not a good match. Besides, they've fought countless times. My boss wouldn't have time to hide from a macho man like him!" Bai Chuan said proudly, "Besides, Lou Tiannan is not worthy of my boss. My boss likes obedient women, like me!"
Elena: “…”
Although there was no one around, Baichuan and Elena didn't speak loudly, but—
The communicators they were wearing buzzed, and then Lou Tiannan's cold voice rang out, "There are 30 seconds left. If you two don't get to the meeting room, you will have to kill two more Black Bones for today's mission."
"Damn it!" Bai Chuan cursed, and pulled Elena over with him. With the wind blowing around him, he entered the conference room on the fourth floor just in time for 30 seconds.
The Federation's potion plus the one given to Elena and the others by Chen Xing are enough for every member of the White Flame Base to have one, reducing many potential dangers for them.
After distributing the potions, Lou Tiannan divided the members of the White Flame Base into groups. Their actions gradually expanded to areas outside of East District 1. This was not only to help Chen Xing, but more importantly, it was their duty as a federal army.
Kill the zombies and retake the safe zone.
As early as three months ago, Xiya became a full-fledged member of the federal army. She is the youngest federal soldier but should not be underestimated.
At this moment, she was sitting in the conference room watching Lou Tiannan assigning tasks to them on the simple screen, wondering why the captain looked happy and unhappy at the same time.
After the tasks were assigned, each member group left in turn and followed their own team to complete the task.
Bai Chuan took the assigned task list and said to Elena: "Is he seeking revenge for personal gain? Why do I have to go so far to investigate?!"
"Because you are a wind-type person, your speed is faster than other people with special abilities." Elena felt that there was no problem with Lou Tiannan's arrangement. Lou Tiannan was not the kind of person who would take revenge on others for such a matter.
After hearing Elena's explanation, Baichuan reluctantly believed it, but he still didn't look happy.
Lou Tiannan was looking at the map and circling. The plan to eliminate zombies in the East District was going relatively smoothly. Only in the southwest district there were two or three difficult points to conquer. Before the end of the world, that place was a residential area with complicated road conditions and many obstacles. According to the information sent by the members, there would be about 7-8 black bone zombies here.
The White Flame team went there two or three times but failed to take it down, so he decided to go and deal with it himself.
He shifted his gaze slightly on the map. The southwest area was less than ten minutes away from Aurora Church. He narrowed his eyes and thought in a high-sounding manner that if he had time after dealing with the zombies, he could "drop by" and take a look. Perhaps there would be black bone zombies lurking near Aurora Church!
Seeing the pen stop at the southwest area, the sharp-eyed people knew that Lou Tiannan was going to the southwest area to eliminate the zombies in the residential area over there, so someone volunteered, "Captain Lou, we would like to follow you to that area to complete the mission, is that okay?"
Their group was the one that had failed to win twice. One reason they wanted to help Lou Tiannan was to help him, and the other was to avenge their previous defeat.
"Okay, get ready and we'll set off in five minutes." Lou Tiannan has always believed in the principle of quick victory.
With Lou Tiannan leading the team, the zombie clearing operation in the residential area of the southwest district went smoothly. The number of black bone zombies was two more than expected. Under the strong black flame, even if there were two more, it did not affect the result.
The team members were cleaning up the battlefield. Lou Tiannan smelled a cool scent in the air. He was very familiar with this scent. It was Chen Xing.
Is Chen Xing nearby?
After checking his surroundings to confirm his position, he said to his team members, "After you finish cleaning up, go back first. I'll check to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net nearby."
The team members did not suspect anything, nor were they worried that something might happen to Lou Tiannan alone. With Lou Tiannan's strength, it was not their responsibility to worry.
Seeing the members walking away, Lou Tiannan followed the smell to find people. This time the smell was different from other times. Until he got closer, Lou Tiannan frowned and smelled blood.
There was an obvious smell of blood mixed in with that cool breath. Was Chen Xing injured?
Lou Tiannan quickened his pace to look for someone.
He didn't notice that the direction he was heading was completely opposite to the location of Aurora Church.
As the sky gradually darkened, Lou Tiannan arrived at the commercial district in the northern part of East District 1. Before the apocalypse, there were many commercial buildings and office buildings here, like a steel forest. After the apocalypse, most of the high-rise buildings collapsed in half, and the ground was covered with vehicle wreckage, bricks and steel bars. Dim shadows were dotted on one side, like monsters with their mouths open, ready to swallow people at any time.
Lou Tiannan's instinct from years of fighting made him aware of the dangerous atmosphere, but he did not retreat because he smelled an increasingly strong smell of blood, with a hint of coolness mixed in that smell being very obvious.
He gathered energy in his palms and stepped into the steel forest step by step.
“Hehe——”
After he stepped in, the howling of zombies could be heard all around, and their red and blue pupils glowed faintly in the darkness, which was extremely terrifying.
Lou Tiannan shot out a black flame fireball with one palm, illuminating a corner, enough for him to see the situation there clearly. When he saw clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked. A huge number of zombies were densely gathered together, most of them did not move, but just stood there quietly, like sculptures in an exhibition hall.
How come there are so many zombies hiding in East District 1?
"Who is coming here..."
A hoarse and sinister voice sounded behind him.
Lou Tiannan turned around and saw the young man he had met before, Xize.
But when he saw the expression on "Xize", Lou Tiannan knew that this bionic man's body was definitely not a bionic system.
This bionic man is probably the source of the apocalypse, Ebona.
Ebona deliberately used Chen Xing's blood to attract Lou Tiannan, and it came up with a brilliant idea.
Chen Xing's interest in Lou Tiannan was nothing more than the glance when he broke out of the cocoon, which was just the imprinting effect of the egg-laying creature. If it could occupy Lou Tiannan's body, maybe it could hide in Lou Tiannan's body and kill Chen Xing!
It can't deal with Chen Xing for the time being, but it's not certain about Lou Tiannan.
Ebona looked at Lou Tiannan who was surrounded by his zombie army, with an evil smile on his lips, "Lou Tiannan, today...you stay here."
…
Chen Xing was doing an experiment in the laboratory when his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he felt vaguely uneasy.
She attached great importance to this feeling in her body, because she had only experienced this feeling twice in her life. The first time was when she couldn't contact Xiao Hehua, and the second time was now.
Is something about to happen, or is Ebona making his move?
Chen Xing's tentacles searched back and forth in Aurora Church. The church was still under the all-round monitoring of her consciousness tentacles as usual, and there was nothing unusual.
Her tentacles quickly picked up the communicator and asked Wu Zeyue of the Federation and Elena of the White Flame Base if there was anything unusual.
The answers we got were all that there was nothing unusual and everything was normal.
"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with anyone or anywhere?" Chen Xing asked again worriedly. While asking, her fingers touched her chest and her heart was beating abnormally. No... this feeling... wasn't right.
"No, if you want to say something unusual..." Elena thought hard and said something that was not too unusual. She said: "It's already this late, and Lou Tiannan hasn't come back yet."
But then she added, "It's not too unusual. He led a team to the southwest area to clear out zombies today. An hour ago, a team member came back and said he went to check on the situation nearby. Calculating the time, he should be back soon. There's really nothing else wrong..."
"Hello? Chen Xing, are you listening? Hello?" Elena called out twice, and finally heard Chen Xing reply: "I know."
There was the sound of wind in the background of Chen Xing's response.
"Chen Xing, are you outside?" Elena asked.
"Well, something happened. I'll contact you later." After Chen Xing finished speaking, he hung up the phone and ran quickly in the night, heading towards the southwest of East District 1.
The moment she heard Elena talking about Lou Tiannan, she knew that something must have happened to Lou Tiannan.
In five and a half minutes, she arrived at the southwest area, but there was nothing unusual here, and no trace of Lou Tiannan. Chen Xing closed her eyes and stood quietly in the southwest area, her consciousness spreading silently, searching for any traces or breath of Lou Tiannan.
Because she didn't mark Lou Tiannan last time, the connection between her and Lou Tiannan was very weak, but it didn't matter, her consciousness was strong enough.
In less than twenty seconds, her eyes suddenly opened and she found it!
