Chapter 21 Mission
Lin Luo listened carefully to Xiao Chen's explanation with shining eyes. She always missed the target when she first started shooting. As Xiao Chen taught her how to adjust her posture little by little, she finally made some progress and could hit the target at least six out of ten shots.
After practicing for two hours in a row, Lin Luo's hands were shaking a little. Seeing this, Xiao Chen ended today's practice and took Lin Luo back home.
After dinner, Lin Luo snuggled in Xiao Chen's arms on the sofa, and boredly grabbed Xiao Chen's bony hands and gently stroked the calluses on his hands.
Xiao Chen put his arms around Lin Luo's waist and looked at her quietly, the light in his eyes could drown people.
"Lolo, there is a mission tomorrow and I have to go there in person. You..." Xiao Chen was interrupted by Lin Luo before he could finish his words.
"Brother, don't you plan to take me with you?" Lin Luo felt disappointed, but he knew his own limitations and didn't force it.
Lin Luo looked up at Xiao Chen and said, "I understand. If I stay, it will only make brother worry. Don't worry, I will wait here for brother to come back."
Xiao Chen rubbed Lin Luo helplessly and said, "What are you thinking about? I wanted to ask you if you want to go with your brother."
He was worried about leaving her alone at the base. Although the base was safe, he couldn't feel at ease without her. Although it was dangerous outside, he had the ability to protect her. Most importantly, he couldn't bear to leave her.
Lin Luo was stunned, then replied with a look of surprise: "I think so. I won't hold my brother back."
Xiao Chen smiled dotingly. How could she be a burden? He loved her so much that he could give his life for her.
At the entrance of the mission hall.
"Little Lolo, here, here." Luo Yueyue saw Lin Luo and Xiao Chen coming together and immediately greeted them.
Lan Kexin was standing with her teammates. When she heard Luo Yueyue's voice, she looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman who looked like a perfect match. As she saw their tightly connected hands, a light flashed in her eyes.
When she heard at the base that the military was recruiting a special ability team and that the team leader was Xiao Chen, she fought for a place on this mission just to be able to get in touch with this man. During her time at the base, she also learned that Xiao Chen was the grandson of the base commander, a well-known figure in the military, and had strong abilities.
Lan Kexin was excited at the thought of being able to go on a mission with such an outstanding man. She was sure she could attract his attention. She had a feeling that this man would eventually belong to him.
When Lin Luo saw Luo Yueyue and the others, he knew that this mission not only included Xiao Chen's team, but also recruited three other powerful teams with special abilities.
There was the Wild Wolf Squad, led by a handsome man in his twenties named Liang Chuan, with nine members. There was the Thunder Squad, led by a bald, middle-aged man named Zeng Wei, with a simple, honest face and a goofy smile. Finally, there was the Phoenix Squad, with the girl in tow, consisting of five men and two women.
This mission was because the base received a distress signal from the M City Research Center, claiming that they were trapped in a laboratory, with no food or water, and the outside was full of zombies. Among them, a famous scientific research master before the apocalypse was also trapped there. If they could be rescued, perhaps a vaccine for zombies could be developed, ending the chaotic apocalypse, so this mission was very important.
Lin Luo hadn't expected Lan Kexin to join the mission. Seeing the admiring glances of the men around her, he thought to himself, "She's truly a woman! Just standing there can attract so much attention."
What Lin Luo didn't know was that more eyes were on her. She had a fair face and beautiful features, somewhere between pure and charming, pure and lustful. Everyone who saw her was amazed.
There was also jealousy mixed in. A pretty girl in Lan Kexin's team blushed when she saw Xiao Chen's tall and handsome appearance. Then, when she saw Lin Luo nestled in Xiao Chen's arms, the admiration in her eyes was covered by jealousy. She wished she could replace her and stand beside that man.
Xiao Chen swept his cold gaze over the group of men warningly, and put his arm around Lin Luo's waist as if to assert his authority. All of them felt a chill down their spines and looked away in fear.
"Behave yourself and stop attracting attention." Xiao Chen leaned over and whispered in Lin Luo's ear, full of jealousy.
Lin Luo looked at Xiao Chen in confusion. What had she done to attract so many people?
Xiao Chen looked at Lin Luo's puzzled and inquiring eyes, sighed softly, rubbed her head, and said nothing.
Xiao Chen explained the precautions for this mission.
"I'm in command of this mission. My only requirement is that you absolutely obey my orders. If any team is unwilling, they can withdraw now."
All three teams had no objections, and then Xiao Chen announced their departure.
