Chapter 210 Return to Base

However, no one expected that they would complete the mission in just two days. They had originally planned to stay here for three to five days.

In fact, everyone knew that it was largely thanks to Yun Shuhuai and Xi Ling. The two of them alone wiped out the zombies in a factory and killed two level five melted zombies.

What was even more incredible was that their casualties were very small. Except for Qin Ye’s two dead followers, almost no one was injured.

Gu Zhucheng felt that if they went back to submit the mission today, the military leaders would definitely not believe it. They might even think that they had escaped from the battlefield.

Fortunately, everyone was carrying a recorder. I believe that the senior executives would be shocked after seeing this.

After Yun Shuhuai and the others stopped, the hot wind did not continue to hit them. The water surface began to freeze gradually from far to near in such a cold temperature.

"Ah? The water is freezing again! Isn't it a waste of our efforts after we leave?" Du Hao shouted in surprise.

Gu Zhucheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. It's just a normal phenomenon." He picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Everyone, don't worry about the ice. Let's clean up the debris near the dam first."

After receiving the new instructions, everyone began to pick up the debris with various tools.

Yun Shuhuai froze the impurities and water on the edge of the rotten garbage rack into ice, then used object manipulation to lift it up, and then fired a fireball, burning the large amount of impurities mixed with ice into ash, which fell into the water and was washed away.

With Yun Shuhuai's demonstration, everyone followed suit. Ice and fire psychics worked together, which was much more efficient. They no longer had to consider where to throw the impurities.

After a while, they had almost cleared the impurities floating near the dam.

Then Yun Shuhuai and Xi Ling made another move. They used ice energy at the same time to freeze the water on the edge of the dam again. The ice surfaces created by the two were connected, and the connection was completely fused. The texture and thickness of the ice created by the two were almost the same.

"Are you ready?" Yun Shuhuai said to Xi Ling who was standing far to her right.

"We can set off anytime." Xi Ling also looked over and exchanged glances with her. Although they were so far apart, they seemed to be very close.

Yun Shuhuai chuckled, "Let's set off, but don't fall behind me."

"No."

"Then let's go!" Yun Shuhuai said as she jumped directly from the dam and landed on the ice she had just made.

Xi Ling on the other side had also jumped down. The two stood on the ice and looked at each other, releasing ice energy at the same time, spreading from their feet to the surroundings.

"What are they doing?" Du Hao was confused. "Didn't we melt the ice? Why is it freezing again?"

Gu Zhucheng explained, "We opened the river to ensure that the water can flow smoothly through the dam, but the temperature is so low that the water here will inevitably freeze again after we leave. Although the generators will generate heat when they work, in order to avoid attracting zombies to break into the dam again, my colleagues and I have reallocated the generators and rotated them to generate electricity. Only three generators are left working, and the rest remain in shutdown. These three generators are distributed relatively far away to reduce heat generation."

"Before, under my suggestion, Chief Xi added several layers of iron fences in the water diversion tunnel to prevent zombies from getting in, and also covered the generator to prevent heat from escaping and attracting zombies. The purpose of doing this is to add a uniform layer of ice cover on the water surface to block the cold air from the outside and prevent the ice from freezing thicker. The water under the ice cover can still flow freely, so even if we leave, the dam can still operate normally."

Du Hao understood, he nodded and said, "So that's how it is, it's really thoughtful."

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you, because they are the only ones who can do this, I only told them two."

Tao Zheng said: "It doesn't matter, as long as they can complete the task."

Gu Zhucheng smiled again and said: "In fact, they have other tasks, you see."

The two people standing on the ice, they used ice energy while walking towards the center of the reservoir, and the ice they made was closely connected.

But when they walked to a distance of about ten meters from the dam, they squatted down at the same time and put their hands on the ice, and I don't know what they were doing.

Suddenly, icicles began to grow on the flat ice surface in front of them, with the same distance between them, neatly arranged in a row. Then, in front of everyone's eyes, the icicles grew to a certain height, began to bulge on the sides, and began to grow horizontally, and finally connected to each other like a fence.

"What is that?" Du Hao asked in surprise.

Gu Zhucheng explained, "It's an ice fence. There are actually some under the water. They are mainly used to block debris and zombies. They are only for temporary use. After we survive this winter, the base will send people to build a stronger fence."

After a fence was built, the two began to move forward. Every time they walked a certain distance, they built an ice fence in the water until it connected to the ice in the center of the reservoir.

Fortunately, no zombies attacked them during their work, and the work went very smoothly.

When Yun Shuhuai stood on the river, she was also aware of the zombies under the water, but their number was so small that it could be ignored. However, Yun Shuhuai would not let them go. She manipulated the ice on the water surface to grow ice spikes to attack the zombies, directly knocking out the crystal cores and pressing them into the mud.

No one knew that Yun Shuhuai was just walking on the ice, but she actually killed so many zombies under the water.

An hour later, the two returned to the dam.

Everyone returned to the dam and carefully checked it inside and out again. After making sure there were no other conditions, they could finally go back.

Gu Zhucheng originally suggested taking a rest here, but everyone said they would leave immediately and could rest in the helicopter.

So everyone quickly boarded the helicopter. The captain was also very excited. He flew the helicopter over the dam for a few circles before heading towards the base
