Chapter 136 Withstanding the Pressure



Fang Qingdai led her team back to the front line and found that, just as Xuan Liu had predicted, the battle was already in full swing!

The beasts went berserk, charging relentlessly towards the defensive line. The superhuman squad was overwhelmed and suffered heavy casualties.

As Fang Qingdai and the others blended into the crowd, they heard someone shout in despair, "Why haven't the official teams made a move yet? Do they expect us all to die before they act?!"

Fang Qingdai and others felt a deep sense of unease.

Official team?

Even if Outpost No. 4 is reduced to ashes, they probably won't make a move!

Thinking of this, Fang Qingdai's eyes flashed, and she shouted, "Go to the rear and see if the official troops have moved. If they haven't, they probably don't know the situation on the front lines yet. Also, send the situation back!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd agreed that it made sense, and many of those who were already considering leaving immediately began to move to the back!

He also understood Fang Qingdai's plan, and immediately took his family to travel around, encouraging everyone to go back and check on the situation of the official team!

Once the crowd realizes that the official team is indifferent, they will naturally question the official team. At that time, if they then say that the number of alien beasts far exceeds what the base indicated, and that the current combat power of the fourth stronghold is simply unable to cope with it, the crowd will naturally condemn Zhu Lingfeng's team.

Then we'll reveal the secret passage and incite the crowd to break out. Everyone will surely follow our instructions!

But right now the frontline troops are all retreating, and with no one to resist the beast tide, it will definitely push deeper and deeper, and the defense line may be breached prematurely.

Once the defenses are breached, the frenzied horde of beasts will advance unimpeded, and the people will be unable to resist, resulting in heavy casualties.

Before they could even urge the crowd to evacuate, most of them would have already been eaten by the monsters. This was not the outcome that Fang Qingdai and the others wanted to see.

"If the crowd retreats, the defensive line will be breached!" Fang Qingdai saw that the leader was still inciting the crowd, so she quickly stopped him to discuss countermeasures.

However, he said, "Even if everyone doesn't retreat and holds the line to the death without support, they will ultimately perish in the beast tide. It's better to let everyone retreat; perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope!"

That makes sense, but more likely, the crowd will descend into chaos, morale will waver, and they will be easily overwhelmed by the beast tide!

"That's about enough. Go back and try to put some pressure on Zhu Lingfeng's team. If he's forced to send the official team under pressure, it will stabilize the situation to some extent!"

If Fang Qingdai wasn't mistaken, Zhu Lingfeng probably planned to have the ordinary superhuman squad hold the front line and delay the beast tide so that he could slowly select suitable test subjects and kidnap them quietly.

Once he had selected enough test subjects, he led his men and evacuated directly through the passage, completely disregarding the lives of those on the front lines!

Now that Fang Qingdai and the others have intervened, his rhythm of selecting test subjects has been disrupted. He only managed to select the few dozen people in the secret passage, which is clearly a disservice to the game he has set up!

If he were greedy enough, he would likely send in an official team to stabilize the situation and buy some time to select enough test subjects.

When he mobilizes his troops and his forces are dispersed, that will be the best time for Fang Qingdai and the others to make their move.

After listening to Fang Qingdai's advice, he stopped his efforts to incite people everywhere.

But he was still worried and said to Fang Qingdai, "I have to go to the rear to find my team members!"

"I need them to act as spies in Zhu Lingfeng's team, and they can also help instigate things if necessary!"

Fang Qingdai frowned: "Are you sure those team members are trustworthy? What if one of them has already sided with Zhu Lingfeng?"

His face darkened, but after a long while he shook his head firmly: "No, at least my trusted confidants would never betray me!"

Fang Qingdai really wanted to ask him where his confidence came from.

If a boss can turn into a demon in the blink of an eye and want to kidnap him to be an experimental subject, why should his subordinates be loyal to him to the death?

Seeing his resolute expression, Fang Qingdai never asked the question.

Everyone has their own opportunities. Just like Fang Qingdai herself, she currently trusts Jing Yi or Xiao Mao and others completely.

Perhaps he has a special emotional connection with his teammates, which ensures that they will never betray him easily?

She didn't try to dissuade him, but she was also a little worried: "But it's very risky for you to sneak back. If you get caught again, I can't guarantee I can save you again!"

He shook his head fearlessly: "It's alright, I have to go. I'm entrusting my wife and daughter to you. I hope you'll take them with you with you no matter what decision you make!"

"If I survive this, my life will belong to you from now on. I'll do anything you ask without hesitation!"

Fang Qingdai nodded decisively: "You only have value if you're alive. Try your best to protect yourself."

I understand.

Fang Qingdai agreed to provide shelter for his wife and daughters entirely because she valued him as a person.

If he accidentally falls into Zhu Lingfeng's hands and can no longer provide value to Fang Qingdai, Fang Qingdai will protect them this time, but will not continue to provide help and protection in the future.

If he wants his wife and daughters to live in peace forever, at least he has to be alive!

He nodded earnestly: "I know, I won't act impulsively, I will act carefully!"

Fang Qingdai then waved her hand: "Go!"

After leaving, Fang Qingdai and her team stayed at the front line to fight against the alien beasts.

"Those on the left, step inside the circle of spikes and coordinate with my vines to kill the monsters!"

"The one on the right, coordinate with that desert cat to finish it off, don't attack it!"

Fang Qingdai's team quickly created a safe open space again. This time, Fang Qingdai did not confront the other small teams head-on. Instead, she took the initiative to pull other teams together to fight the enemy!

The team that was called was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Fang Qingdai's team handled the situation with ease, much easier than theirs, no one resisted and immediately joined her team to fight together!

With the addition of other teams, Fang Qingdai's team became even more ferocious in killing the alien beasts. The vines were swung around and caught them one by one. Once caught, the alien beasts were dragged into the area of ​​earth spikes and immediately pounced on by the waiting superhumans and hacked to pieces!

With Fang Qingdai's team holding up against the pressure, the other teams were able to catch their breath, and the already crumbling defense line was firmly stabilized again!

Fang Qingdai and the others didn't have to wait long. Just over ten minutes later, Zhu Lingfeng personally led his men to the front line!

He spotted Fang Qingdai and the others fighting in an orderly fashion amidst the chaos at a glance, and his eyes flickered.

"You still have some rest time left, why did you come to the front line early?"

Zhu Lingfeng approached Fang Qingdai's group and asked.

Fang Qingdai twitched the corner of her mouth. Sure enough, she was suspected!

It's unclear whether Zhu Lingfeng's suspicion arose because he sent people to search for them after they infiltrated the passage and couldn't find them, or because of changes at the exit that led to news being sent back, causing Zhu Lingfeng to become suspicious.

But no matter what, he didn't find any evidence!
