Returning to the apocalypse, Zero emerged from the space, looked at the cleaned-up room, and smiled slightly.
When I went outside, I found it was unusually quiet.
Although no one bothers people in the base area normally, there are still sounds of people talking and exchanging ideas.
Now, there's not a single person outside, not even the slightest sound.
What happened?
After walking a little further, they saw a person running around in a panic.
Zero called out to him, and he turned around. Upon seeing Zero, he seemed to see a savior and find his pillar of support. He rushed forward and said anxiously, "Sir, something has happened!"
Ling's heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, something happened here!
Zero gestured for him to calm down first, and then asked him what had happened.
He replied, "The days after you left went well at first, and everyone cooperated with the training. In particular, Captain Ye Hao and his team even came to guide us. But... just three days later, people from who-knows-where suddenly broke into the base and kidnapped many people. Because of what you said before, everyone fought back, but the difference in strength was too great. Even Captain Ye Hao and his team couldn't resist. In order to reduce casualties, the captain activated the defense system to temporarily protect us."
Zero asked somewhat anxiously, "What exactly happened?"
He tried his best to recreate the scene as it was.
At that time—
"There seems to be some noise at the door, I'll go check it out," said the man who was tidying up his belongings at the door.
"What could possibly be going on? Did monsters get in?" the man next to him said dismissively. Just as he finished speaking—
With a loud "boom," a hole was blasted open in the doorway.
Then a group of "people" dressed in gray rushed inside.
The first to suffer was the man who "went to take a look," who was blasted in two!
Upon seeing his companion in such a miserable state, the other man disregarded everything else and scrambled towards the base as fast as he could.
The man in gray didn't rush to make a move, but instead followed the runner step by step towards the center of the base.
Along the way, people were being killed or arrested...
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Something terrible has happened!" A panicked voice rang out, causing a ripple in the quiet base.
"Oh no! Someone has broken in!" someone else shouted as they ran.
"What happened? Why are you in such a panic?" Ye Hao, who rushed over upon hearing the commotion, frowned and grabbed one of the people to ask.
"Team... Captain... Someone has broken into our base!"
"What should we do, Captain? What should we do?" another voice asked anxiously.
Ye Hao composed himself and said seriously, "Everyone, don't panic! Think about what Lord Ling said before he left! What are we going to do?"
"That's right, Lord Zero said we must rebel!"
"Yes, we have to fight them!"
"Charge!"
Before Ye Hao could say anything, a group of people rushed forward...
...
These defenseless people, rushing forward, were like mantises trying to stop a chariot...
Ye Hao anxiously called them back.
He hadn't finished speaking yet. Even if there is a confrontation, there must be a countermeasure. Isn't this just like an egg hitting a rock, utterly vulnerable?
What... what should we do?
Qin Feng, Chongming, Ling Shuang, Ling Shu and their group also arrived at the scene. Seeing the situation before them, they did not rush forward like the others, but instead observed it.
The "gray-clad man" arrived suddenly and acted ruthlessly. Strange tentacles would occasionally emerge from his body, snatching away everyone's weapons. Taking rash action might backfire.
Are we just going to let this continue? Are we just going to let them slaughter us like this?
No, absolutely not!
Ye Hao carefully observed the movements of the "gray-clad men," including their attacks and the frequency with which tentacles appeared on their bodies. Finally, he discovered a clue...
He discovered that these "gray-clad men" seemed to act on orders and had no independent thought.
They have no thoughts of their own? That means they are puppets. So, if we can find the person controlling the puppets, we can stop them!
It must be said that if things were really as Ye Hao thought, the solution would indeed be quite simple. However, the strange thing about these "gray-clad men" is that they aren't puppets!
Ye Hao thought he had found the "leader," and suddenly leaped up, took out a flamethrower from his combat bracelet, nimbly rolled in the air, pulled the trigger, and with a "bang," a burst of flame shot out from the barrel and rushed towards the "gray-clad leader."
The gray-clad leader looked up, a glint of green light flashing in his eyes, before meeting Ye Hao's gaze.
Ye Hao was startled and almost fell over.
He steadied himself and continued firing.
But the gray-clad leader seemed oblivious to the flames, walking straight through them...
You...you've already worn it?
Ye Hao and his group were shocked. Could it be that these "people" were not afraid of fire?
It turned out they weren't afraid at all. The flames had no effect on them.
However, upon closer inspection, one can see that when they were engulfed by flames, countless tiny hair follicles emerged from their bodies. These follicles secreted a green liquid, which, upon contact with the flames, dissolved like water droplets falling into the ocean…
Seeing that the fire attack was ineffective, Ye Hao and his team exchanged glances, nodded to each other, and shouted, "Everyone, retreat quickly! Run as far away as you can! Don't come any closer! Activate the defense system immediately!" Then, the thirteen members of the legion leaped out and surrounded the "gray-clad man."
