Chen Wan and the others didn't know that the military had imagined so much. Qin Ke, Wei Siyu and the others were picking up level 3 mutant animal crystal cores from the ground. They counted the crystal cores they had picked up and found that there were a total of 26 level 3 mutant lion crystal cores.
"That's good now. We have all the crystal cores we need." Chen Wan looked at the black crystal cores in his hand, his face beaming with joy.
She put all the crystal cores into a storage bag, and then she felt a little relieved. The joy of getting the crystal cores subsided, and Chen Wan began to dislike herself again. The smell of blood on her body made her want to vomit, so Chen Wan took out the kettle, threw away her blood-stained coat, and asked Jiang Yanxin to help her pour water so that she could wash her face and hair thoroughly.
Thick blood mixed with the water in the kettle fell down. The kettle was used up and Chen Wan's face could barely be seen. The rest of the water needed to be drunk, so Chen Wan could only make do with it for the time being.
Everyone waited there for more than ten minutes, but there was no more movement from the mutant lion.
"Commander, are we going to go back directly?" Chai Guanfeng saw that all the third-level mutant lions had been eliminated, and their mission was considered completed.
"Don't worry. Last time our people came here to transport supplies, more than a dozen trucks were left here, and no supplies were moved back. It's just right that we are here this time. Notify all the personnel to drive the vehicles to the vicinity of the shopping mall and fill all the trucks left here with supplies before leaving." Cao Wei thought for a while and said, it is not easy for the convoy to come out once, not to mention that most of the team members who came here yesterday were killed or injured, and all the trucks were left in Wukou Town and not driven back. It's just right that the crisis is over now, and they can move all the supplies back.
"Okay, Commander." Chai Guanfeng received the order and immediately asked someone to convey it. Soon everyone got on the car. However, Chen Wan and the others also had a mutant lion, and the lion meat was edible. Chen Wan was reluctant to leave the mutant lion meat here and waste it, so he simply put the lion's body on the top of the armored vehicle.
The convoy slowly gathered towards the direction of the town shopping mall. After honking the horn, there was not a single zombie around. Chen Wan thought that the mutant lion must have killed all the zombies here.
They parked the car and found that there were indeed 20 large trucks transporting supplies parked around the mall. There were also many corpses of military personnel around. They must have been attacked and killed by mutant lions when they came to transport supplies yesterday.
Commander Cao saluted the corpses in front of him and asked the soldiers to gather the corpses together for cremation. After they had used up all the corpses, everyone started to enter the mall to move supplies.
Chen Wan found it in the supermarket
After washing her hands and finding some shampoo, she and Jiang Yanxin went up to the women's clothing area on the third floor.
They entered a shop and closed the door. Chen Wan took off the blood-stained clothes and washed her body inside and out with mineral water. She also washed her hair. Only then did she feel that there was no blood smell on her body.
After tidying herself up, she found a pair of casual clothes from the store and changed into them. Jiang Yanxin also found a coat for herself. She had just used her coat to wipe the blood off Chen Wan's head.
After taking care of himself, Chen Wan followed Jiang Yanxin downstairs to help.
There were a lot of them, but it was not easy to fill 20 trucks. Seeing that it was getting dark, Commander Cao simply ordered everyone to rest in the car for one night and return to the base together after all the supplies were loaded into the trucks tomorrow morning.
As it got dark, Commander Cao ordered armored vehicles to form a large circle on the streets to prevent any emergencies. The soldiers began to look for dead and damaged trees around them to find a place to live and cook.
Chen Wan and her team also surrounded the city. Qin Ke was responsible for making a fire, while Chen Wan pulled the body of the mutant lion off the top of the armored vehicle. When she came out, she took a lot of seasonings from the supermarket, a bottle of mineral water, and a barbecue rack. She was going to have a barbecue here later.
Qin Ke also moved quickly. The small flame lit up brightly in a short while. She added a lot of firewood.
Chen Wan had already cut a piece of lean meat from the lion's belly. Jiang Yanxin poured water on it, and Chen Wan used the water to wash off the blood on the mutant lion's meat. Then he cut a lot of cuts on the large piece of meat with a knife and put it on the barbecue grill. Chen Wan smeared the meat with white wine, brushed a layer of peanut oil on the mutant lion's meat, and then added soy sauce. Then he put the barbecue grill on the fire.
Compared to the sumptuous meals that Chen Wan and her friends had, the other soldiers were either cooking canned food and noodles in small pots, or cooking instant noodles in small pots.
Chen Wan and the others also cooked a bowl of instant noodles each to fill their stomachs, and the staple food was still roasted mutant lion meat.
Soon the aroma of barbecue spread. Chen Wan took a jar of honey and used a brush to brush a layer of honey on the lion meat on the grill. The surface of the meat was fragrant and sweet, and tasted better than ordinary barbecue.
Many soldiers around looked at Chen Wan and the others, and suddenly felt that the instant noodles in their bowls were not tasty anymore.
Commander Cao was also eating instant noodles. He saw Chen Wan and her team were so busy from afar and shook his head with a smile, "Chen Wan,
The relationship between our team is really good. Compared to other teams, they look more like friends and have more human touch than ordinary teams."
"Yes, and there are many people with special abilities in their team, including powerful characters like Jiang Yanxin. If they can stay, it will be a blessing for our First District." Chai Guanfeng said with a smile.
"Well, it would be best if you could stay. We won't force you to leave. You have already helped a lot this time. Otherwise, we would probably all have to die here today." Commander Cao said with a sigh.
Chen Wan and his friends had eaten instant noodles, and Chen Wan applied honey again. The roasted mutant lion meat was almost ready, so Chen Wan cut the meat into pieces and shared it with everyone.
She also tasted a piece herself. Chen Wan roasted the meat very well. The meat inside was cooked, but the texture was tender. The outside was roasted crispy and delicious, with a sweet honey flavor. Everyone praised it.
Because the barbecue rack was a little small, everyone finished the first round of meat quickly, and Chen Wan cut off a few more pieces of meat.
Qin Ke and Shen Mingyan took out three more racks from the supermarket. Chen Wan rinsed the meat one by one, applied seasoning on it, and then grilled it on three racks. Soon the aroma of barbecue wafted out again.
The mutant lion meat is very tender, just like high-quality beef, and tastes excellent. With the seasonings Chen Wan added, it instantly becomes even more delicious.
On the other side, in the first area, Shi Tou and Ke Qing followed the soldiers to a lounge in the office area. The soldiers said that Major General Wang still had some things to deal with, so they asked the two to wait here for a while and prepared snacks, juice and other food and drinks for them.
As the two of them waited, it gradually got dark.
Around seven o'clock, a soldier knocked on the door and came in, saying to Shitou and the others, "Gentlemen, Major General Wang wants to see you. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"It doesn't matter. We don't have anything to do today anyway." Shi Tou replied quickly.
The two followed the soldier leading the way to Major General Wang's office. Shi Tou still felt a little embarrassed.
Major General Wang smiled at him and said, "You are the stone, right? Don't be nervous, sit down quickly."
Shitou and Keqing sat on the sofa opposite Major General Wang. He pursed his lips and asked, "Is there something you want us to come over for?"
Major General Wang nodded, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Yes, I heard that you are a member of Chen Wan's team. You also know that several of your friends went to Wukou Town on a mission with Commander Cao and the others. Now is the time.
The spy hasn't returned yet, so I assume your teammates and Commander Cao have met with misfortune."
Major General Wang sighed and continued, "But the base can't always be without a leader. My old boss was also one of the commanders of the military district, but the base in Funan City was destroyed, and he's now somewhere else. District One has no leader right now, and I think my old boss is the best candidate to take over. I'm just worried that people with special abilities will cause trouble. I want you to be the representative of the special abilities and take the lead in suppressing the troublemakers and comfort the people left behind in your team. I've contacted Commander Yang via long-distance satellite communication, and Commander Yang will be in District One around noon tomorrow. Once Commander Yang has stabilized the base, wouldn't it be better for you to be the commander's adjutant in District One than to be in Chen Wan's team?"
Shitou's eyes lit up when he heard the latter part, and he quickly responded, "Don't worry, Major General. I will definitely keep our people stable and prevent them from causing trouble. Please assign some people to me when the time comes, and I will help you keep a close eye on the superpowered people in District One."
When Major General Wang heard what Shitou said, he smiled and said, "That puts my mind at ease."
Then he arranged for his trusted associates to select a team of people for Shi Tou, all of whom were armed with guns. There were about thirty of them, and they were all handed over to Shi Tou to monitor the psychics who remained in the first area.
Shitou transformed from a small soldier with a flat head into the captain of a special task force. He was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth. Keqing beside him was even more smiling.
She leaned into Shitou's arms and praised him, "I told you, you're definitely something special. Look, after leaving Chen Wan, they were immediately appreciated by the officers of District One. Being the commander's adjutant—that's a position many people wouldn't even dare to dream of. Shitou, you're amazing! I knew I wouldn't misjudge you."
Shi Tou was also very happy. He hugged Keqing and replied with a smile: "You are really my lucky star. Before I was with you, I just wanted to live one day at a time with Siyu and the others. It was you who woke me up and taught me that I have my own value. Keqing, thank you so much. Don't worry, I will definitely treat you well."
"Well, when Commander Yang comes tomorrow, our future will definitely get better and better." Keqing also looked forward to her future life.
At the same time, people in the first district were in a panic, and there were even signs of chaos. The people who had been law-abiding began to have other thoughts, and many people began to get restless.
Shitou and Keqing were going to Building 76 to inform Yiyi and the others not to get involved in the military's internal strife. This was his best effort towards his former team.
