The murderer who killed him was the tasker, so Bei Ming was on high alert the moment he saw these five people. But on the surface, he remained calm, just casually glancing at them before looking at his old comrades.
He still doesn't understand why he can figure out the identities of these people, but this ability helps him avoid danger, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
Bei Ming died while on a secret mission, and those with insufficient rank and authority had no way of knowing his whereabouts. Therefore, seeing their old boss join the rescue team was pleasantly surprised, not unexpected.
People who were familiar with Bei Ming gathered around, calling him captain, with happy smiles on their faces.
Bei Ming high-fived everyone one by one. Although his back was facing the five people, he could still see their every move in his field of vision.
Only then did he discover that his eyes had also undergone some kind of mutation. Besides expanding his field of vision by 360 degrees, he could also see infrared and ultraviolet light, invisible to the naked eye. This meant that even at night, he could see as clearly as in the daytime. Nothing around him, from the sky to the ground, could escape his sight.
With such a magical pair of eyes, Bei Ming felt relaxed even with his back to the five taskers.
He knew that everything was under his control.
So, what exactly did Dr. Zhuang Li do to him? What was he like, the man who could transform an ordinary person into a superman? These questions once again surfaced from the depths of Bei Ming's heart.
The desire to meet Dr. Zhuang Li grew deeper and deeper in his heart.
At the same time, he was also observing the five people.
This seemed to be a small group, gathered together, whispering something. The leader had a handsome appearance, a square face, thick eyebrows, and thick lips. He looked like an honest man. Above his head, a line of text floated: [A-level tasker, gold system, 100,000 points.]
The younger man who looked quite similar to him, but was slightly shorter, should be his younger brother. A line of words also floated above his head: [A-level Tasker, Wood Element, 100,000 Points.]
The remaining two young men, one from the Precision Department and the other from the Gold Department, were both A-level. Judging from their appearance, they were both sunny and handsome, with a bright smile, easily gaining the favor of others.
The girl among the four men had a round face and large eyes. She spoke softly, seeming to be a gentle young woman. The words above her head read: [A-rank Tasker, Healing, 100,000 points.]
It is obvious that this is a team with fairly even strength, but it is unknown what their purpose is in infiltrating the army.
Bei Ming knew very well that his awakening was an accident, so these five people should not be coming for him.
What is their purpose? Is it related to the five people who killed him? Are they members of the same organization?
As Bei Ming was pondering these questions, a slightly choked voice sounded behind him: "Bei Ming?"
Without even turning around, Bei Ming saw the tall man walking in. This man was none other than Bei Ming's former teammate on a mission abroad. He had even personally brought Bei Ming's body back home, so he knew everything that had happened.
Bei Ming turned around, wondering how to explain his resurrection from the dead, when the man strode over and hugged him tightly, saying in a hoarse voice, "It's good that you're back. We've been waiting for you!"
Bei Ming's eyes moistened slightly, but no tender words uttered. He was accustomed to the hail of bullets, but not to showing weakness in front of others. So he silently patted his comrade on the back.
The two of them stepped back a little, looked at each other and laughed out loud.
At this moment, the five taskers all looked over and focused their eyes on Bei Ming.
The square-faced man asked silently, "System, his name is Bei Ming? What's Bei, what's Ming?"
The other four people also asked the system in their hearts.
Bei Ming, smiling at his comrades, had a darkening moment in his eyes. He was absolutely certain he wasn't hallucinating, nor was he experiencing any visual or auditory hallucinations. So, how did these five people manage to make sounds without moving their lips? What system were they calling? The people around him looked normal, clearly unable to hear them.
This strange phenomenon attracted Bei Ming's great attention.
Ye Huai handed him a list and asked him to count the number of people.
At the same time, the system the five people had called replied, "Host, there seems to be a bug in my task manager. After scanning, I've confirmed that this person is the Bei Ming mentioned in the first bounty. Please wait, I'll submit a bug report to the mainframe immediately."
Bounty mission?
Bei Ming remembered this keyword and quickly analyzed the situation while checking the team list.
Five cold mechanical sounds suddenly appeared in the warehouse for no reason, but the people around could not hear them at all. From this, it can be inferred that the sounds must have come from their minds.
Was it the voice of his heart? Had he acquired the ability to read minds?
In just a few seconds, the five systems said simultaneously: "The bug has been corrected. The first mission has been reclassified as unfinished. The reward points have been increased to 2 million. Please kill the target as soon as possible."
The five men remained calm, but murderous intent was gathered in their eyes.
They all looked at Bei Ming who was standing with his back to them, but they didn't know that their every move, even the slightest expression, was seen by Bei Ming.
Bei Ming immediately figured out the details of these five individuals. Like the five weirdos before him, they were also out to hunt him down. They belonged to the same organization, which rewarded them with points to take on missions.
The so-called mission may include other things besides killing people.
The system that communicates with them should be an intelligent AI, just like the mobile phones used by ordinary people, which is an auxiliary tool.
Sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the five men, Bei Ming felt a surge of murderous intent. He casually glanced at everyone and asked, "Who are those people? I don't think I've ever seen them before."
The team member who knew Bei Ming had returned from the dead immediately explained, "After the apocalypse, a small number of people experienced genetic mutations, gaining special abilities. Those unfamiliar faces are the special abilities recruited by the army. Some can control fire, some can control water, and some are invulnerable to weapons. They're incredibly powerful. Their presence has greatly enhanced the army's combat effectiveness."
This person obviously admires people with special abilities very much, and his eyes are full of longing.
Ye Huai, who was standing next to him, snorted coldly, seeming to be extremely disdainful. Although he knew that not all people with special abilities were bad, he could not develop a good impression of this group of people who thought highly of themselves.
What's more, among the superpowers there are also taskers. They are basically a group of demons who want the world to be in chaos! They are mixed in with the superpowers and are really hard to guard against.
Ye Huai was firmly against the army's decision to recruit people with special abilities. However, the army desperately needed such talents, and his influence was insignificant, making it impossible for him to change anything.
Bei Ming nodded, and immediately realized that the taskers were using the cloaks of psychics to conceal their true identities.
The teammate introduced the newly joined psychics one by one. When talking about the five-person group, his tone became noticeably more intimate: "The big guy is called Ah King, a gold-type psychic. When the apocalypse just broke out, he led his team to save hundreds of ordinary people. They even saved my life.
"The shorter man next to him is his younger brother, Wang Xuan. He doesn't have any special abilities, so we call him Little Wang. The man with his arm around Little Wang's shoulder is Liu Ping. He also doesn't have any special abilities, but he's a very good marksman. He's currently our team's scout and sniper.
"The person standing opposite Xiao Wang and Liu Ping is called A Gang, a gold-type psychic. He's quite introverted and doesn't like to talk much. The girl is called Xiao Cai, a healing psychic. Aside from the zombie virus, she can treat most injuries and illnesses. She's our military doctor. With them, our journey will definitely be much smoother. They're both very powerful."
The team members gave a thumbs up, their faces full of admiration.
Ye Huai sneered and turned his head away.
Bei Ming nodded slightly without commenting.
At this moment, King walked out of the armory under the pretext of smoking.
His four teammates followed suit.
The five of them stood in an open area within easy reach of Bei Ming, leisurely smoking, chatting, and occasionally laughing together, seemingly discussing something amusing. They were at least several hundred meters from the weapons depot, and the constant rumbling of trucks and armored vehicles could be heard from all around them.
Logically speaking, under such circumstances, Bei Ming could not hear what they were saying at all.
But Bei Ming could hear their conversation clearly. In addition to his 360-degree vision, his hearing seemed to be extraordinary.
Once again, Bei Ming felt a strong curiosity about Dr. Zhuang Li. What genes had he implanted in him? Why was he so powerful?
Bei Ming, who was lost in thought, was drawn back to his senses by King's words.
The man smoked a cigarette and said slowly, "I didn't expect there was such a big fish hidden in the army."
Xiao Wang said with a grin, "It's just too lucky, there's nothing I can do about it. Who is this Bei Ming? His points are higher than those of a high-level zombie?"
"I don't know, the novice mission is purely to give points to novices? It's our luck that we came across it, so it doesn't hurt to do it." Ah King exhaled a puff of smoke and said lazily.
"Of course." Liu Ping nodded.
A Gang glanced at Bei Ming with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Brother King, when we get to other provinces, shall we kill these soldiers immediately? I want to sleep in every morning, but that instructor is so annoying. He forces me to get up and keeps blowing the bugle outside my dormitory. I've wanted to take action several times." Xiaocai's smile was very innocent and cute, but the words he said were chilling.
Just because she was forced to get up early every day, she had the idea of killing everyone. It seemed that she was already used to trampling on life.
"Okay, when we get to Province S, I'll help you kill them." King rubbed Xiaocai's head.
Xiao Wang also followed suit, saying, "Cai Cai, not only will I help you kill people, I'll also help you pick off their flesh, make bacon, and leave it for you to enjoy as a snack. What do you say?"
"Who wants to eat these stinky things? Man, I like children, children's meat is tender." Xiaocai licked his lips, with a look of aftertaste on his face.
This statement is obviously not a joke.
Perhaps because the reborn's warning poster had served as a warning, the rescue team from City B arrived quickly when the apocalypse broke out. Their tireless efforts significantly reduced the city's zombie population. Meanwhile, the leadership in other provinces reacted with remarkable slowness, resulting in a far greater zombie population than in City B.
This also created a dilemma for taskers in City B, where they didn't have many points to earn.
Now, all the main roads out of the city are jammed with cars, and all major airlines have already stopped flying. It is extremely difficult for these five people to go to other provinces to harvest zombies. So they infiltrate the army and try to take a military plane to other provinces under the pretext of rescue.
After arriving in other provinces, they would kill the soldiers accompanying them, without any special purpose, just for the sake of convenience.
Finally knowing the overall plan of these five people, Bei Ming clenched his fists, his eyes filled with frost.
They are addicted to killing and eating people. It seems that these taskers are no different from those zombies.
In that case, just kill them all!
