Chapter 108: Going to the Tiger Mountain Even Though You Know There Is a Tiger There
Fengcheng at this time is like the chirping of cicadas dormant in a summer afternoon, waiting for a ray of bright sunshine to start chirping all over the city.
"Boss, there must be something wrong in the city. Should we still go into the city as planned?"
The raccoon cat and the prince jumped down from the tree. "Boss, there are no people anywhere in the camp, and there are no zombies in the nearby streets and communities. Could it be that someone has cleared out the zombies nearby?"
Xing Lie shook his head. "No. When we clean up the zombies, we won't clean up the bodies as well."
"Do you think there is any idiot who has the leisure to clean up the zombie corpses now? Are you afraid of affecting the city appearance?" A man with a scholarly look, kind eyes and a pretty face came over and spoke earnestly to the raccoon cat and the prince.
"Fortune teller, why don't you calculate what the current situation in Fengcheng is? You speak as if you know it." Xiao Wu ran back, patted the fortune teller on the shoulder and said.
The fortune teller's name is Yan Suan. He is one of Xing Lie's thirteen subordinates and has always been the brain trust of the team. It's not that he has extraordinary intelligence, but his family heritage has always been based on deduction and calculation. After arriving on this planet, his superpowers were suppressed and could not be used, but not long after, he awakened another spiritual superpower.
induction.
This is a psychic ability that converts supernatural powers into sensing power, and can transform the geographical location and scene distribution of an area centered on itself into a visual image reflected in his mind.
The higher the level of the ability, the wider and more detailed the locations he can sense.
The first level of sensing ability can only vaguely sense some dynamic factors in the surrounding environment. After a few days, Xing Lie gave him most of the crystal cores he collected along the way, allowing him to absorb and advance.
The second-level sensing ability can already sense environmental changes within three kilometers.
The faint white energy spread out from Yansuan to the surroundings. In just three minutes, all the environments within three kilometers, whether it was streets, houses, or green plants and trees, were reflected in his mind in the form of images.
"Ayan, how is it?"
Long before their car reached the outskirts of Fengcheng, he vaguely heard an unusual sound, the source of which was inside Fengcheng.
"Boss, there is no one within three kilometers. My ability level is too low. If it is a human or creature hiding underground or with special hidden abilities, I cannot detect it." But even so, the ability of the calculation is comparable to a satellite positioning system device. And as the ability is upgraded in the future, there will be unexpected effects.
Xing Lie's brows furrowed even more.
"What's the direction of Fengcheng's air cargo terminal?"
“There is no unusual movement.”
Seeing Xing Lie's serious expression, Xiao Wu and the fortune teller asked, "Boss, if something is wrong in Fengcheng, why don't we try another route?"
At this time, the other seven special forces soldiers in the car also got out and asked about the current situation. Everyone had different opinions on whether to change the route and find another air transport station.
Xing Lie shook his head. "The air transport station in Fengcheng is the closest station to the nearby small town that can be transported by air. The journey back to Kyoto is too long. If we don't take air transport, it will be difficult to reach there in a month at the current situation. We can't afford it."
"Yeah, it took us two days to get here from City S. If we change the route, I don't know how much time we will waste." Xiao Wu nodded seriously in agreement.
The zombies and life in the apocalypse seemed to be evolving at a rapid pace. First, the zombie cows in Sanxing Village would have evolved into level three zombie life if they hadn't arrived.
Although they did not encounter zombies above level 2 along the way, the number of zombies increased each time. No living people were seen.
Time is precious to them. Their own strength is constantly improving, and they must seize every second to steadily lead the world.
"In fact, the absence of zombies in the city doesn't necessarily mean there's something fishy going on. Maybe we're just lucky, and the zombies inside have already left before. It's not impossible." Xiao Wu's fantastic words made the fortune teller and the raccoon cat prince look at him as if he were an idiot.
"A city has at least a million people, several million people. The whole city disappeared? Are you stupid or are there no places for zombies to go? Let's hold hands, let's go together?" The raccoon cat and the prince glared at Xiaowu, doubting him deeply. If he hadn't followed the boss, he would have died hundreds of times in the universe battlefield.
Xing Lie took out a small tablet from the side pocket of his tactical pants, entered a password, and then opened a page with a few nimble clicks of his fingers.
"This is the location of the air transport station. The air transport station in a third-tier city should have small and medium-sized transport aircraft. Our target is the location of the red dot. Everyone should be alert along the way. If there is anything unusual, go to the transport runway of the air transport station."
"yes!"
The twelve people spoke in unison and had no objection to Xing Lie's words.
The thirteen people returned to the car, Xing Lie and Yan Suan were in the first car, and Li Mingqi was in the second row.
"Captain Xing, are there another group of zombies?" Li Mingqi asked nervously. He was now a helpless and useless ordinary person. Without the protection of these special forces, he would not be able to return to the Kyoto Institute.
The situation along the way made him deeply realize the cruelty of the end of the world. He originally wanted to ask Xing Lie to help find his granddaughter, but after being sternly rejected by the group, he was helpless. He did not have the courage to leave the team to look for her, so he had to think of a solution after returning to Kyoto. Although he knew in his heart that the possibility of his granddaughter surviving was extremely low.
Hua Xiaoting tried her best to get close to Xing Lie and make him have a good impression of her. But when she asked to meet Xing Lie or change cars to Xing Lie's car, she was ruthlessly ignored by these special forces. Moreover, every time she encountered zombies and needed to fight, she was clearly fully prepared, but when she saw the ugly and scary zombies, she just couldn't move her legs to get out of the car. She was so scared that she kept shaking, let alone helping.
Faced with the choice between safety issues and getting close to Xing Lie, Hua Xiaoting chose the former without hesitation.
"Brother Tanuki, are we heading into the city? Aren't we going to the airport to take a flight to Kyoto?"
Hua Xiaoting asked tentatively.
The raccoon glanced back at Hua Xiaoting, then looked forward again, ignoring her. Seeing her embarrassment, the prince replied, "Who told you we were going to the airport? The cities here are all third-tier small cities, without civil aviation airports. The nearest one is the air transport station in Fengcheng, which is used for material transportation. There should be small and medium-sized transport planes there, enough for all of us to take."
Hearing this, Hua Xiaoting breathed a sigh of relief. She originally thought that her family would have to follow these soldiers and drive all the way to Kyoto. If they encountered any powerful zombies or monsters along the way, she didn't know if she could get there alive.
"That's great. If we take a plane, we will definitely reach Kyoto very quickly."
Hua Jianshen also looked at the special forces with a smile, flattering them one after another. "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do this time. If we have the chance in the future, our family will definitely repay you."
Cai Shaoyan also agreed, "Yes, is this place far from the air transport station? Captain Xing, if you need help, just tell us. Although the two of us can't help much, Xiaoting is an ice-type mutant and has great strength now. Please don't be polite."
Hua Xiaoting was also thinking to herself that she would have to hurry up and grab a seat next to Xing Lie when she got to the air transport terminal. It would take more than four hours to get to Kyoto from here, which was enough time for her to perform.
