Late Night Intelligence
Chapter 62
The ghost crow held the Nether Fire in its beak and flew towards the white rhinoceros at Wei Huan's command.
The white rhino shook its head restlessly, as if it was struggling instinctively.
As a legendary monster, it obviously possesses certain autonomous abilities.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard I try, I still can't get rid of it.
Fortunately, it struggled hard and finally threw the creature on its back away.
An unwilling roar sounded from above the white rhino's head.
The white rhinoceros suddenly seemed to have received an imperial decree. Its huge body was as agile as a monkey. It jumped and leaped, then turned and ran away.
The army of undead followed closely behind.
It runs and they chase.
In the blink of an eye, it is the horizon.
The whole world was quiet for a brief moment.
The sandstorm caused by the explosion seemed to be gathering slowly at this moment.
The wind and sand suddenly rose.
The undead army, which had been blown apart, once again dragged its remains and surrounded the wandering monsters.
The wandering monster has no soul, and is also not afraid of battle damage or life and death, and fights again.
However, there was an obvious gap in strength between the two sides, and on the other hand, Wei Huan was constantly replenishing his combat power.
The wandering monsters were quickly eliminated one by one and in groups.
Until there is nothing left.
“We won!!”
“We won!!”
"I'm alive!!"
"Thank you, Captain Wei! Thank you, Captain Mu! Thank you, captains! I'm still alive. I can actually survive among these monsters!"
Cheers not only rang out from the intercom, but also the wind and sand were filled with celebratory laughter.
They opened their windows and celebrated their survival with people in nearby cars.
The male and female captains also opened their car windows and saw each other.
There was a kind of excitement that could not be concealed in the eyes of both of them.
Then they asked Wei Huan, "Now that the problem of the wandering monsters has been completely solved, can we just go back to the city and rest?"
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong discussed it and agreed.
The city was indeed in ruins, and the walls on all four sides were of no use at all, but it was still safer than crossing the desert at night with such a long caravan.
Going back to the city to rest is indeed the best solution.
So, after leaving for the second time, Wei Huan returned to the city again.
The city was already in great ruins, and the protective shield that had been installed was abandoned. Sandstorms passed through the city walls, making a shrill "woooo" sound.
But when people come back here again, there is no more despair and fear in their eyes.
They parked in the parking lot, in their own parking space, turned on the lights in the car, and let the wind howl in the parking space, but they felt full of peace.
The two team captains and Fan Tao came to Wei Huan's car, and also came with Xu Qingqiang, Lin Xu and Zhou Yong who were under their escort.
The three men had obviously been beaten up and were now standing in front of Wei Huan like prisoners.
The male captain said: "What I hate most is bounty hunters like you. You have no morals and no morals. For a little money, you dare to do anything unscrupulous!
You brought that big thing here, didn't you think we couldn't handle it? More than a hundred people died just because of your selfishness?"
Xu Qingqiang didn't say anything. Lin Xu and Zhou Yong looked at their boss and saw that he was silent, so they also fell silent.
Lin Xu raised his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, which was bruised and swollen, and was kicked by the male captain. The male captain was angry that they were hurting others, so he kicked them hard. After a few kicks, Lin Xu spit out a mouthful of blood.
"What are you doing!?" Xu Qingqiang, who had lowered his head to accept the punishment, became furious and hit the male captain with his backhand.
He stood in front of the two brothers like an old hen protecting her calves, and his eyes turned red when he stretched his neck to confront the male captain.
Compared to Lin Xu, he had more and more severe injuries on his face. One of his eyes was beaten so hard that he couldn't open it, and his clothes on his chest were covered in blood. However, compared with the male captain's protective look, people subconsciously avoided his creepy gaze.
He opened his mouth, tearing open the wound that had just healed, blood flowing out. He said hatefully, "I owe them what they owe me, and I've already paid them back. You better clean up your hands and feet."
The male captain was furious: "Do you think that beating you up will repay you?"
"What else?" Xu Qingqiang glared at him fiercely, his eyes as fierce as a wolf's. "Killing someone means paying with your life? Kill me! Kill me if you dare! I was driving the car, and I had the idea! Come on! Punch me right here!"
Xu Qingqiang was lifted up by his collar. The male captain was so provoked by him that he really wanted to kill him.
Finally, the female captain suppressed him and looked at Wei Huan: "How to convict him? Captain Wei has to come. Besides, Captain Mu is here too. You need to control your temper for me."
As she finished her words, everyone's eyes fell on Wei Huan and Mu Zhong's faces again.
Mu Zhong sat in a wheelchair, Wei Huan standing beside him. The two had been silent since the beginning. It was not until they were asked that Mu Zhong spoke up: "Tell us about the rhino."
Having said that, Mu Zhong took out the magic flute.
The magic flute, which looks like a black devil's horn, is not big, but about the length of a finger. There is a red rope wrapped around the magic flute, so it should be worn directly around the neck.
The dark energy of this magic flute is very strong. Once it appears in the car, it makes most people here feel uncomfortable.
The same thing happened to Mu Zhong. He held it for two seconds and felt a prickling sensation. When he was about to put it back, a hand reached out from the side and took the magic flute away.
Mu Zhong turned around and looked at Wei Huan, who had a surly expression.
Wei Huan played with the magic flute in his hands, then looked at Xu Qingqiang indifferently.
Xu Qingqiang was like being hit on the head by a bullet, and he became quiet the moment he spoke: "I just opened the box.
A month ago, we received the news that a treasure was about to appear here, so we rushed here. Unfortunately, we were a step too late and only encountered monsters besieging the city.
Under those circumstances, we had no choice but to leave Challenge World and only came back today to go to the treasure location."
When Xu Qingqiang said this, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly: "The white rhino is sleeping right next to the treasure chest.
Seeing how big it was, we knew we were no match for it, so we didn't dare to attack it. But then I noticed that there was a group of people doing something to the white rhino.
Later on, I thought about it and stole the treasure chest.
Next thing you know, not only did the white rhino fail to kill those people, but it was controlled and chased me.
I just…"
At this point, Xu Qingqiang glanced at Wei Huan and asked, "Can I smoke?"
Wei Huan nodded, Mu Zhong shook his head, and then Wei Huan shook his head.
Xu Qingqiang's face was grim, but he didn't dare to really touch the smoke. He curled his lips and said, "Look, I've already given you the magic flute. You promised to protect us from death. You must fulfill the promise of the deal. You can't kill me and my people."
Mu Zhong said, "Let's put it this way. We protected you from the monster, and the deal is done. Now we must settle the score for diverting the trouble.
A total of 102 people were nearly killed by you. As a captain of the Northeast Challenge Army, I now impose a penalty on your actions.
From now on, you will be imprisoned until the end of the return CD. After returning to Blue Star, you will receive a judgment from the Northeast Challenge Army, and the law will naturally determine everything."
Xu Qingqiang pursed his lips, with dissatisfaction evident in his eyes.
But he had no intention of arguing, he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The two captains worked together to take the three people away and found a place to guard them.
For a moment, Fan Tao was the only one left in the car.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Fan Tao said, "It's so late, why don't you eat first? Everyone has prepared the food and is waiting for you to finish. I want to thank you properly."
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Although challenging the world is cruel, over time, challengers who have adapted to this kind of life gradually begin to pursue a higher quality of life.
The food that the Legion grows and raises in the microscopic world is continuously put on the auction house every day.
For old challengers, earning points through various means and maintaining basic living standards is no longer a problem.
Those who are incapable have long returned to reality and given up their identities as challengers. Those who can stay in the challenging world have some ability.
As the "screws" that maintain the flow of materials at the grassroots level in the world, their existence is also important.
Who doesn’t have some stock in their car?
Using the food to make a delicious meal to thank Wei Huan and Mu Zhong for saving them is the best way these old challengers can think of to repay them.
We had dinner in Fan Tao's car.
She was only a second-level blessing speaker, but had a third-level car.
This vehicle is the tank left at the No. 3 supply point. The official used a treasure chest prop to allow this level 3 vehicle to circulate so that the vehicle will not disappear when the driver leaves.
Challenging the world is too dangerous. If the legion is gone, it will turn into a brigade. If the brigade is gone, it will turn into a squad. If the squad is gone, as long as there is one person left alive, the person and the car are still there, this base will still be there.
Fan Tao was protected by his teammates, survived to the end, and inherited the car.
In this car, she welcomed Wei Huan, Mu Zhong and Liu Chengzhi and thanked them for saving her life.
The old challengers got on the bus with their best food. When they met, they all shed tears of relief that they had survived the disaster.
There was more crying than laughter during this meal.
Many people died during the monster siege. Some people did not have the "Return Talisman" and did not stay in the challenge time long enough, so they died directly.
Nearly two hundred people died in this crisis, but under the light of a new batch of challengers entering this world, not even a splash was made.
Not to mention that later the monster leader was upgraded to level five, and humans turned the tide and finally had a level five car, which is still talked about today.
Challenge the world like that.
You have to know that more than ten days ago, five million young people died around the world.
What does the death of just two hundred people matter?
Only those who were struggling inside were shouting for help at the top of their lungs.
Only the Legion could squeeze out a little bit of strength under that tremendous pressure to save this group of people.
In the monster leader's attack, the Northeast Challenge Army suffered the heaviest losses, almost to the point of being severely injured and unable to recover.
How many people here have given up hope and decided to give up their status as challengers?
So how could they not laugh or cry about what happened today?
Being alive has really become a luxury here.
But in the end, they raised their tea and the thin wine diluted with a lot of water, and raised their glasses to Wei Huan loudly: "A thousand words, but a single thank you!"
…
When Captain Wang, Liu Xiaotian and Miaomiao arrived at supply point No. 3, they were already frozen stiff.
When the aircraft was brought over, it was said that this thing had high speed and high wind pressure, and could only be used by a soldier.
They came back all the way from the fifth-level highway, passing through mountains and forests, and swamps. By the time they reached the desert, it was dark.
They had been told in advance that the night environment was harsh and the cost of using aircraft would be high.
It was not until actual use that it was discovered that even the soldier king who was famous for his strength and resistance to exercise could not withstand the coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow.
"Since all the problems have been solved, why go back there and do it?" Liu Xiaotian's teeth were chattering and he almost froze to death.
Captain Wang squeezed out two words: "Mission."
"Intent, intelligence, can, can be given to you later, important, important secret, secret chat."
"Mission accepted, completed." Captain Wang continued concisely, "Almost there."
"Miaomiao, are you okay?"
"Um."
"Hold on, be patient."
"Um."
"Speed up further, it's late at night and even colder."
"Um."
The three soldier kings, like meteors gliding across the sky, disappeared in an instant.
Two hours later, before dawn, we finally saw the ruined city.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The three frozen people could barely control their bodies and land normally.
It could only turn into three meteors and crash into the empty ground.
The ground suddenly exploded, turning into a deep pit, and the high temperature from friction burned the gravel into a transparent, sticky substance.
People in the city who had just relaxed and were about to go to sleep were awakened by the huge noise.
Having just experienced a life-and-death crisis, they were all very sensitive.
Almost all the cars displayed attack mode at the same time.
They first wanted to protect themselves, but at the same time they all looked towards where Wei Huan and his car was.
Just a word about whether to fight or not.
That place is now their "backbone".
Soon, Mu Zhong's voice came from the intercom.
"Someone's coming, safe, someone from the Legion."
Is the Legion coming?
My tense body finally relaxed, and after lying down, I couldn't fall asleep again due to mixed feelings.
Complaining that the troops sent by the Northeastern Challenge Army were too weak and too late.
But this resentment faded away because of a bit of helpless understanding.
In fact, even though such a big incident happened on the front line, the legion did not forget to arrange people to rescue them, which is the best they could do.
After all, if they didn't become challengers, they could still be ordinary citizens on Blue Star. Returning to the challenge world even though they knew it was dangerous was simply out of their greed.
But if the front line can't hold on, let alone the challenger or not, I'm afraid so many people on Blue Star may not be able to be saved.
Among those people are their cherished relatives and friends.
It's just that this cruel and challenging world has disrupted the truly happy and stable life...
…
"Captain Wang, Xiaotian, and Miaomiao." Mu Zhong knew the three people who came.
They were escorted all the way here by the army of undead, and they were walking with their hands and feet clasped together before getting on the car, looking extremely embarrassed.
After getting in the car, Liu Xiaotian was the first to throw himself on the sofa, hugging a pillow and gritting his teeth.
Miaomiao was at the other end of the sofa, her hands trembling as she took the hot water handed to her by Liu Chengzhi.
"Thanks."
She had never felt that a cup of hot water was so precious.
Only Captain Wang still maintained the basic qualities of a soldier. He tried hard to stand up, looked around the car, and asked, "Where is Wei Huan?"
Mu Zhong said, "In the great tomb."
"When did you go in?"
"Almost two hours."
"Okay, let's rest for three hours. After Wei Huan comes out, we'll leave." The latter sentence was said to Liu Xiaotian and Miaomiao.
The two of them hummed in agreement, not only did they not complain, but Liu Xiaotian even said happily, "It's great to be able to rest for three hours."
Miaomiao had a smile on her lips. After relaxing, she slowly drank the hot water in her hand, bit by bit.
Mu Zhong frowned: "Is the war so tense ahead?"
Captain Wang wanted to say something, but then looked at Liu Chengzhi, whose eyes were wide open.
Mu Zhong introduced: "Driver Liu Chengzhi, I asked you to help me look up information before. He is the heir of Xinggang Group and the grandson of Chairman Zhang Mingzhu. He is also a newcomer to Challenge World this year and is in District 1006 with us."
"Yes, I remember now." Captain Wang nodded, his gaze softening as he looked at Liu Chengzhi. "Regardless of whether before or after the advent of the Challenge World, Star Steel Group was a pillar enterprise of the country. Especially after the advent of the Challenge World, Star Steel Group has shouldered a great responsibility in both the people's livelihood and the military industry."
When Liu Chengzhi heard that he was being investigated, he did not feel offended. Instead, he raised his head proudly.
He has always been grateful for being born in such a family.
It's not just a matter of wealth, but the loyalty and pride that the family guards, which is also his goal.
But even so, Liu Chengzhi was not qualified to hear the secrets that Captain Wang was going to convey in person.
Liu Chengzhi was quite sensible, so he said he would make something to eat for everyone and left for the kitchen.
When there were only a few people left in the room, Captain Wang gave the USB flash drive he had with him to Mu Zhong.
"We must show it to Wei Huan."
Mu Zhong nodded while holding the USB drive, thinking that it was a waste of talent to send three military kings over for this matter.
Captain Wang then whispered, "General Mu has been sidelined. Commander Chai has transferred all of his fifth-level combat forces, causing our land reclamation to be suspended. There have been no new operations for five days.
Commander Mu's orders cannot be carried out outside the Legion, and we will return to Blue Star in the next day or two. Let me tell you, don't return to Blue Star for the time being. He will solve the troubles outside. You guys should develop in the challenge world well, and we will wait for you in the front. "
Mu Zhong frowned. "What does Commander Chai mean? Are you still fighting for power at this time?"
Captain Wang didn't say anything.
It was Liu Xiaotian who spoke: "It's not about vying for power. It's all about cultivating your own confidants. It makes mobilization smoother, and the people on the front line are doing very well. It's just a pity that we have so much energy but nowhere to use it. We're just catching fleas for fun."
This is somewhat contradictory.
He said he was busy before, but now he’s so free that he’s catching fleas.
But that's how the legion is. They can do nothing at their posts, but they can never leave their posts. War situations often come suddenly, and once there is any action, they must be there at the first time.
However, Liu Xiaotian and the others, as the trusted confidants of General Mu, were used to being assigned tasks on a daily basis. Now that they were suddenly given nothing to do, they were not thinking about finally getting a rest, but about the anxiety of having nothing to do.
"Okay, stop talking." Miaomiao interrupted Liu Xiaotian's complaints and said to Mu Zhong, "Mu Zhong, let me start by saying that I came here with my own ideas. I won't beat around the bush about our relationship. I need some supplies, do you have any? Just tell me what resources you need, even if it means risking your life. As long as we produce a level five vehicle, we can break the deadlock."
Liu Xiaotian jumped up while hugging the pillow: "Fuck, do you have a secret mission?"
Captain Wang also looked at Miaomiao in surprise.
Miaomiao pursed her lips, glanced upstairs, and whispered, "No, I just want to try it. Really, no matter how much the southwest side gives, I can double it."
Mu Zhong smiled bitterly, "We really don't have any materials. A platinum chest can only drop one core material at most, which happens to be what's in short supply in the southwest. We are also powerless."
Miaomiao heard this and let out a long sigh.
…
Wei Huan had only stayed in the tomb for half the time when his spiritual and mental powers were almost exhausted.
The casualty ratio of this battle was the highest since his rebirth.
The low- and middle-level cannon fodder troops were sent back to the tomb in large numbers by the explosive power of their own netherworld fire. They all needed to replenish their netherworld power before they could be summoned again and leave the tomb.
High-level ones like Xiuroma and Earth Beasts have all entered a weak CD, especially those Xiuroma who have received the "Bloodthirsty Blessing". It will take at least 20 days before they can barely participate in the battle. It will take more than a month to fully recover.
Wei Huan returned to the challenge world again, crushing his opponents all the way, and no one could stand up to him.
This was the first time he mobilized 90% of his strength, but not only did he fail to kill the other party, he also let the other party escape.
Recalling the enormous white rhino, Wei Huan thought of the scene in his previous life where he saw the white rhino fighting against the army of human challengers from afar.
There were still huge crowds of people and corpses everywhere.
But before that, the soldiers of the Legion had probably never thought that one day, they would not die on the battlefield they imagined, and their opponents would not be the dark beasts that forced Blue Star into a desperate situation.
The Zhan Clan... these traitors! A bunch of lunatics!
When Wei Huan came to his senses, his fingers had already pierced into his palm.
In the Temple of Occupation, he was just a spirit body, and the pain in his palms was just phantom pain, but he still felt severe pain.
He was filled with anxiety.
So, did the legion during this period of time notice this undercurrent?
If left unchecked, the tragedy of the previous life will probably be repeated.
We cannot wipe out the "War Clan" after suffering the pain of betrayal and losing so many soldiers.
That is meaningless and cannot make up for the lives lost...
After resurrecting a group of undead lives again, Wei Huan's spiritual power has been exhausted when he sees that there are only a few undead left waiting to be resurrected.
Pressing his aching forehead, Wei Huan had no intention of leaving immediately. He wanted to stay in the tomb until the last moment before leaving, and it would be best if he could complete all the resurrection work today.
Xiaodian was summoned over, and Wei Huan sat on its back in the tomb for a rare occasion.
The mother underground beast was too tall to detect abnormalities in the large tomb, so Wei Huan usually sat on the back of a running wolf in the large tomb.
But today Wei Huan had a headache and felt weak. A smaller back would be more comfortable, and he needed to take a break.
Following Wei Huan's orders, Xiaodian walked at a leisurely pace.
It usually follows Wei Huan on patrols in the mountains, and even without Wei Huan's control, it knows where to go.
Just like this, step by step, we circled the tomb and went up in a spiral.
Wei Huan initially sat on the smaller back shell, but he became sleepy as he rocked for a while. At the same time, the headache caused by the excessive consumption of his spiritual power continued to bother him.
I don't know when he fell asleep.
Normally, if a professional falls asleep, it means he is not in good spirits and will be ejected from the professional temple.
In severe cases, the patient may fall into a coma directly, which is also a protective mechanism.
But today, Wei Huanming was clearly asleep.
He was drowsy and knew that he was asleep, but he seemed to be possessed by a nightmare and could neither wake up nor leave.
He just lay there, and could even feel the slightly shaky gait of his body, hazy and confused, as if he was drunk. No matter how hard he tried, he could only make his fingers twitch.
His misty eyes were half open, looking at the gray sky above his head.
On ordinary days, he didn't look at the sky above the tomb so carefully.
Even in his previous life, during the 11 years he spent in the farmer sequence, he had never looked so carefully at the sky of the professional temple to see what it looked like.
It's like painting the sky with dark gray paint. The poor technique makes the sky in front of you look particularly dull, without any of the spirit that a painter should have.
But as he was swaying like this, Wei Huan felt as if he had double vision in his eyes.
It was like transparent smoke, floating around and distorting his vision.
Blinking and watching, I found that the smoke seemed to have a fixed shape.
Why do the lines on the edge look so much like bat wings?
And in the middle of the wings, is that a ball?
So this is it!?
Wei Huan almost jumped up when he realized what he was seeing.
