Chapter 57 They are in the light, the enemy is in the dark
Ever since Jian Yubai rescued Qi Huo, the days were peaceful for almost two weeks, as if the rebels never existed in the world.
But just because life is peaceful doesn't mean people have forgotten about it.
When the psychics were training in the base, Qi Huo and Jian Yubai went out with the reconnaissance team several times, but they didn't find anything.
Just when everyone was worried about what the rebels were doing in the dark, one night, the rebels finally showed up again.
Overnight, Area A2 was attacked by zombies and rebels and became a deserted city just like Area C5.
Some died, some were injured.
Moreover, their situation was even worse than that of Zone C5, because the people in charge of communication on their side died in the mouths of zombies before they could notify the surrounding zones for support.
The second time this happened, it attracted everyone's high attention, and for a moment, panic enveloped the place again.
"You guys talk nicely, but how can this be that easy?!"
In Area C12, the three top brass sat in the front, on chairs in the back, while the commanders sat around a round table.
There were originally thirteen of them, but now there are only eleven left, and the commander of area A2 was also killed in the battle.
"Since the rebels have acted twice, there will be a third time," Qi Huo said, "The current situation is enough to prove that if we only stay in the safe zone, it will not work at all."
Since the attack on Area A2, the commanders were called into another emergency meeting.
Because the top management has also discovered that this situation will not work if it continues.
Now according to Qi Huo's opinion, they should take the initiative to attack, sweep away the zombies outside, find out the rebels, and catch them all in one fell swoop.
In other words, they can no longer stay in the safe zone. Since the enemy has taken action, they have to take action as well. They can't just wait for the other side to attack every time.
They are in the light while the enemy is in the dark, which is already very unfavorable.
If the zombie attack happens again, I wonder how many families will be destroyed and killed.
"But if we leave the safe zone, who will guard the safe zone?" someone asked.
Some people agreed with Qi Huo's idea, while naturally some people expressed dissatisfaction, thinking that this was too risky.
"We can only transfer the psychics in the rear." Qi Huo said.
The so-called psychics in the rear refer to those who are guarding safe areas on all sides, such as Area C12.
There is actually no point in having a large number of people guarding this kind of area, because as long as the areas in front are safe, there will be no danger in these areas.
The main thing is to guard areas like C6 and A9, which are surrounded by wasteland and are likely to be attacked by zombies.
"Stop. The problem now is not only that most of us have left, but how are we going to defend the safe zone?" said Chen Xiu, the commander of the C7 zone. "Even if we get out, can we really find the space where the rebels are staying? If we find it, can we defeat them?"
"Yeah, wasn't even Commander Qi arrested once?" someone agreed.
"I think you guys are just cowards," Xiao Chuyun spoke up. He glanced at Chen Xiu indifferently, "It's just being caught once. It doesn't mean you will lose forever."
"Yeah, if we S-classes join forces, how can we not win?" Another S-class also spoke up, "If you are scared, you can just stay in the safe zone without taking any action."
It was a rare occasion that they stood on the same line.
It’s not that they want to help Qi Huo, but as S-level, they all have their own unique pride.
Although they know that their strength is not as good as Qi Huo's, they cannot accept others saying "Because Qi Huo can't be defeated, you can't be defeated"; nor can they accept that they, as S-level, are looked down upon by others.
What kind of rubbish is this? Can it possibly kill a bunch of S-ranks?!
"I also agree with Commander Qi's opinion." The speaker was Liu Zilin, the commander of Area A9.
There is also wasteland around the A9 area, which is a relatively dangerous area.
Liu Zilin was afraid that the rebels would attack District A9 next. He didn't want to die, nor did he want the residents of District A9 to die.
It turned out that if they continued as they had been doing before, their district would be doomed once the rebels attacked.
So he still felt that he should take action.
"And me." Qiao Tan also spoke.
Ever since he was caught by Qi Huo when he went to cause trouble for Jian Yubai in the middle of the night, Qiao Tan seemed to have lost his admiration for Qi Huo.
I don’t know why, but he looked at Qi Huo with a strange look, but looked at Jian Yubai with a passionate look.
"You guys...but isn't this method a little too sloppy?"
I didn’t expect that the S-level psychics would reach a consensus, and several A-level psychics couldn’t hold back any longer.
"Wouldn't it be better if we mobilized manpower to strengthen the defense of the outer security zone?"
The commanders who opposed were all commanders of the rear safe zones. Even if the rebels attacked, it would not be their turn to suffer for the time being.
But if they act according to Qi Huo's wishes now, their lives would be in danger, and they definitely don't want to do that.
"How long can we defend blindly?"
Xiao Chuyun became impatient. He felt that he had nothing to say to these cowards.
"Now we have to take the initiative to attack, understand? Only by eliminating the rebels can we completely resolve this matter!"
"You are unwilling to take action at a critical moment. Are you still qualified to be a commander?" Qiao Tan seemed to be impatient. "You have superpowers in vain. Since you are so cowardly, you can just not participate and stay to guard the safe zone."
Even if some A-level psychics don't dare to mess with these S-level ones, they will not be happy if they are criticized again and again.
Chen Xiu's face darkened: "Is it because we are cowards? You just don't use your brains at all! The rebels have so many high-level psychics, and there are even guys who can seal off psychics! If we act rashly, we will only die miserably!"
"I think there's no need to care so much about the person with super powers who can seal off super powers." Jian Yubai suddenly spoke at this time.
Although it was a meeting of commanders, everyone recognized Jian Yubai's strength from previous operations.
Naturally, no one would have any objection to Jian Yubai participating in such an occasion.
"Why do you say that?" Mr. Wu, who had remained silent, finally spoke.
"What would we do if this ability belonged to us?" Jian Yubai asked.
If Jian Yubai guessed correctly, Qiu Zili's ability was not part of his supernatural powers.
If Qiu Zili was a dual-powered person like him, he would have used that ability when he first met him and Qi Huo.
But in fact, he was crippled by Qi Huo and was of no use.
Now his ability to seal supernatural powers should be the same as his invincibility and immunity. It is a special ability given by the system and its use should be limited.
"Is there any need to ask? Of course I will rely on this ability to knock them down!" Xiao Chuyun said.

There are still not many five-star book reviews up to now. I just opened the backstage with great anticipation to see if there were any new book reviews, but there were none.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have expected it. Alas, I thought I was loved. So sad.
