At the front-line scene in the distance, flames shot up into the sky.
Lin Xiaoman watched for a few minutes, and some experience flowed in, and some was dropped.
Lin Xiaoman couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and smiled.
Hao Qiong is a professional at snatching monster heads, and just by looking at the drops, you can tell that Hao Qiong specifically snatches elite leaders.
It was obvious that only a small wave of monsters came, so the battle over there ended in less than half an hour, and the night quickly returned to quiet and peace.
With Wang Yi and Liu Gudao taking turns to keep watch, Lin Xiaoman was not worried about safety. He took Chu Youyou, who was still yawning and drowsy, and Wang Cuiqing held Chu Binbin, who had never woken up, and the four of them got into the car and continued to sleep.
As daybreak approached, the noise of people gradually became louder.
During breakfast, Hao Qiong came back and reported the situation. According to his investigation, there are three king monsters here, a mutant octopus, a mutant turtle, and a mutant shell. They are three groups of big monsters standing on the three legs, and there are five groups of small monsters of other species led by a leader.
He tried to touch the three big monsters, but it was so depressing. They were standard high-defense monsters, and even with a strength attribute as high as his, he could only take away a little bit of their health.
It is absolutely necessary to rely on concentrated fire to push.
Don’t be fooled by the large number of people gathered here, 99% of them are unprofessional Chosen Ones, and rushing up to them will definitely be a disaster.
In short, after weighing the combat power, Hao Qiong's strategy is: burn blue and release summoned beasts!
That was the basic situation. After a brief explanation, Hao Qiong went to catch up on his sleep, while Wang Yi, Liu Gudao and Ding Zhi went to wander around the surrounding bases under the pretext of "visiting relatives."
Looking at the Xichuan base camp just a few hundred meters away, Lin Xiaoman's eyes flashed. With Wang Cuiqing and Lan Xiaojia taking care of them, there wouldn't be any big danger. What's more, Hao Qiong was there. When it came to escaping ability, he was second to none.
So Lin Xiaoman is very relieved about safety.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Xiaoman finally decided to go to the Xichuan base to inquire about the situation.
He covered himself with dirt to create a dusty look, and used the excuse of "looking for relatives" to sneak into the civilian team of Xichuan Base. He found a team with children and women who seemed easier to talk to. He used an egg to get close to an aunt, and successfully started a conversation.
This team only has a few chosen ones and they don’t have much strength. They just want to take advantage of the large army and see if they can pick up a corpse as food.
Lin Xiaoman learned some information. In the city of Xichuan, because there were no cockroaches and rats, not many people died at the hands of mutant beasts. Xichuan was originally a big city with a population of eight million.
Because of the large population and the extremely small number of chosen ones, they were often harassed by mutant beasts, and the crops they planted were often destroyed by the beasts before they could mature. Therefore, life in the Xichuan base was very hard. At the beginning, thousands of people starved to death every day, and scenes of fighting for food and even cannibalism were staged.
After chatting for a while, Lin Xiaoman got an important piece of information. The former top leader of the Xichuan base was a man who didn't care about the lives of the people. He refused to distribute food, which led to the starvation of two to three million people. In April and May, there was a change in the leadership. The former leader stepped down, and the army completely took over the management of Xichuan. The military leaders came to power and began to hunt mutant beasts in large numbers and distribute food.
But even now, Xichuan Base was in a state of food shortage, and everyone was tightening their belts to survive. This time, they were counting on getting some edible corpses and, with luck, picking up a container full of food.
In this regard, Lin Xiaoman can only say that there are too many people and it is miserable.
There are only a few hundred thousand people left in the Wu City base, and food is a problem. This Xichuan base has a population of at least four million. It's really...
"Big sister, not many people died in Xichuan. Your relative is definitely fine. There is a special missing persons agency in the base. You can post the information there. I believe they will be found soon."
"Auntie, I wish you good luck. But your new leader is really amazing, and so is his wife..." Lin Xiaoman was trying to answer her questions seriously, when suddenly...
"Sister-in-law?" A male voice sounded a little uncertain.
That voice seemed to have been heard somewhere before.
Looking up, Lin Xiaoman saw several men in camouflage combat uniforms in the distance. One of them, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a square face, walked quickly towards her, and said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, it really is you!"
Lin Xiaoman:? ?
After a 3-second pause, Lin Xiaoman quickly flipped through his memories of Liu Ying's time in the army. Finally, he looked at the person and asked, "Xiao Shen?"
When he was in the army, Chu He spent most of his time on missions. Chen Yang was a soldier under him, and Liu Ying would look for him when she encountered any problems in life.
"Ha, sister-in-law, you still remember me! Sister-in-law, I'm so glad you're okay. How about my niece? Is everything okay?"
"Yes, everything is safe." Lin Xiaoman nodded.
"That's great." Hearing that they were all fine, Shen Yang smiled happily.
“Chen Yang, which sister-in-law is this?”
While the two were talking, several people in camouflage uniforms came over with him, and one of them asked.
"Yes, yes, since we've met again, Chenyang, why don't you go and inform people."
The smile froze, and a flash of embarrassment flashed across Chen Yang's eyes. He stammered, "This..."
Lin Xiaoman narrowed his eyes slightly, there is a problem!
Chen Yang said "this" several times, and obviously deliberately slapped his head without introducing himself, "Yes, yes, sister-in-law, I will take you to find someone."
After that, he said to the others, "Wait for me for a while, I'll be back soon."
"Okay, no rush."
"Sister-in-law, come with me."
As he left with Lin Xiaoman, Shen Yang looked hesitant to speak, and it was obvious that something was wrong.
"Xiao Shen, do you have anything to say?" Lin Xiaoman walked out of the crowd and asked in a low voice while there were not many people around.
"No, nothing..."
"Okay, you're not the type to keep secrets." Lin Xiaoman showed a worried look on his face. "Actually, I've heard before that Chu He and Huang Jiaojiao..."
"Sister-in-law!" Chen Yang's eyes widened, and then his expression was filled with extreme guilt. He didn't dare look her in the eye and was full of apology. "Sister-in-law, please don't blame the boss. He couldn't do anything at the time. It's us who let you down!!"
Standing still, Lin Xiaoman was happy in her heart but looked at him silently, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Combining the information she knew, Lin Xiaoman roughly guessed that it was probably because Huang Jiaojiao was good at farming, so she had to be won over. The simplest and most effective way to win over a woman is to use the beauty trap to win her heart!
"I, ah..." Chen Yang sighed deeply and confessed honestly, "We really didn't let you down. Back then..."
