55, Chapter 55
"A1 module is normal."
"The d3 module is normal."
"engine……"
The whole plane shook violently.
"Unknown engine failure!"
"Initiate emergency landing procedures!"
"Captain, the emergency procedure failed to activate!"
"Switch to manual mode!"
The entire plane was shaking wildly, and the engine roared intermittently.
Hubbard tightened his grip on the seat armrest and checked that the seat belt was securely fastened.
"Fault?" Lu Feng said, "Didn't it be inspected before takeoff?"
Hubbard beside him frowned slightly: "Were you attacked by flying alien species during the flight?"
Another officer said: "No, we are safe the whole time."
Hubbard narrowed his eyes: "Speaking of which, our wingman also crashed three hours ago."
The cabin was trembling non-stop, and the plane was rising and falling. Finally, it maintained stability and taxied to the ground.
The cockpit door opened, the first officer and the navigator turned pale, and the navigator knelt down and vomited next to the trash can.
"Oh my God..." the first officer said, "It's almost over. There must be something wrong with the engine. I've never seen such a failure. This aircraft cannot be saved and must be completely overhauled."
However, despite almost finishing the game, they landed safely.
The moment he got off the plane, Lu Feng looked up at the city in the twilight. In the outer city area, a swarm of bees flew up and disappeared into the sky.
"Bees?" Hubbard said.
But they had no time to continue the discussion.
A row of officers from the United Front Center stood neatly under the elevator.
"Welcome back." After the leader saluted them, he said with a serious expression: "On behalf of the base, I celebrate for you."
Hubbard has no military rank and does not need to care about the red tape of the military. He speaks directly: "What happened to the base?"
The officer's mouth tightened and he said: "An unspeakable disaster."
Then he turned to Lu Feng: "Colonel Lu Feng, please come with us."
Lu Feng glanced around, said nothing, and got into the car with them.
Looking at the direction they were leaving, Hubbard's eyes were fixed. Next to him was a senior officer from the staff. At this time, the officer said: "The relationship between the United Front Center and Colonel Lu is not very good."
"I heard that on the first day he officially became the Inquisitor, he killed a lieutenant general from the United Front Center." Hubbard crossed his arms and said.
The officer did not speak. In this situation, silence was almost acquiescence.
United Front Center.
"That's probably what happened." said the admiral at the end of the long table.
The base's military hierarchy is strict, but the Tribunal is an exception. At first, it was just a joint organization between the lighthouse and the military. It mainly focused on scientific researchers and did not preset high-level positions. Later, the Tribunal was stationed outside almost all year round.
The levels of the city and the outer city are even more restricted. The directors of the city defense office and the city affairs office are all colonels and military officers. Therefore, no one has proposed to upgrade the military rank of the judges for many years.
But everyone knows that the judge has the power to judge and issue orders across all levels. His actual authority is far beyond what a colonel can possess. Because of this, the existence of the judge seems to be more alarming and fearful, but the base cannot
Give up.
Lu Feng's voice was very soft, and he could not hear the ups and downs of his emotions. He said, "How many people are there in the base?"
"Preliminary statistics show that 8,700 people survived."
"Currently, the United Front Center has dispatched a flight formation to track the trajectory of the swarm." The general said, "Colonel Lu, I must state that the two direct suspects in this disaster are related to you."
"I'm sorry." Lu Feng said, "But I am absolutely loyal to the base."
"The base believes in you." The general said, "You know what you should do."
"Yes." Lu Feng's voice was calm: "The pl1109 formation has an unknown fault and is unable to perform the flight mission. Please apply for a change."
"good."
At night, twilight fell. An Zhe didn't know where his black bee was going to fly, but he was about to be blown dry by the wind. So when the black bee landed for a short rest, he turned into mycelium again and covered its entire body.
brain.
The black bee fell asleep without any surprise.
This place is very dry, a flat desert, not suitable for mushrooms to survive. Anzhe took out human clothes from his backpack and put them on, ate some compressed biscuits and drank water. He used the body of a black bee to block the wind.
He planned to sleep one night first.
The roar of the plane came from the sky, and An Zhe looked up and watched it flying south. At the end of the day, there were more than ten planes flying to the south. An Zhe thought for a long time on the back of Black Bee, and finally came up with a guess.
Black bees are also flying south. Their swarm of bees must have a destination, flying to a place where bees are suitable for survival, and those human planes are chasing the bees, and their purpose is to kill those bees.
, because they are bees that have acquired human genes. Arthropods are a very vulnerable group among monsters in the wild. If they are not eliminated, human genes will be scattered throughout the wild along with the food chain. If those monsters unite to attack the base,
It's very dangerous.
As for why humans can track those bees, he doesn't know. At present, it seems that his black bees are not within the scope of pursuit.
He looked at the plane. It was a small one and seemed to be some kind of fighter. It flew very unsteadily and trembled in the air. An Zhe frowned and watched quietly, after a violent tremor, the plane flew in the distant sky.
It exploded into a ball of fire and then fell quickly.
He saw the same scene twice during the day. Human planes were having accidents frequently, and he didn't know why.
An Zhe wrapped his clothes tightly and closed his eyes. There was a constant roar in the sky, but he was hiding under the black bees. It was night again, so humans should not be able to see him.
Just when he was about to wake up, a loud noise made him suddenly startle and open his eyes.
The wind was very strong, and the rumbling sound was also very loud. It was so loud that it was so loud that An Zhe tried his best to open his eyes and look towards the source. A hundred meters away, a small human fighter plane shook violently in mid-air and tilted his head.
Down, and then - crashed to the ground, one wing broke off, and the entire plane turned sideways.
The ground shook and thick smoke rose from the plane.
An Zhe frowned even more, and he stood up and walked over there. Sometimes it was difficult for him to explain the motives of his actions, just like that day when he dragged An Ze, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, back to his cave.
The cabin door was deformed, twisted and cracked. When An Zhe used all his strength to push the broken cabin door open, a human body rolled out. He was wearing a dark blue uniform of a military pilot. He was covered in blood and his eyes were tight.
Close. Anzhe leaned over and carefully tested his breath.
——Already dead.
He climbed into the cockpit and saw that a person was dead in another seat of the cockpit. An Zhe went in and saw the manned cabin and weapons cabin behind him. He thought that the two people in front were not breathing and there was no way to save them, but
Maybe he can find some supplies here.
Just like that, he walked into the back cabin.
The next moment, he was completely stunned.
Right in front of him, there was a person - he was motionless, his head resting on the back of the seat in front of him.
An Zhe almost stopped breathing. He quickly walked in front of him. He lifted the man's upper body and saw his face.
This is Lu Feng.
Lu Feng also died.
An Zhe couldn't describe his mood at this moment. Lu Feng... was dead?
He had no time to think about why Lu Feng appeared here, so he could only tremble and test his breathing.
The next moment, his mood was up and down - he was still breathing. The cabin was in good condition and the seat belt was fastened tightly. Lu Feng was not hit by anything. The impact of the crash must have been too great and he passed out.
There was a burning smell everywhere in the small space, and a wisp of smoke drifted over from the cockpit.
He knew he couldn't stay here for long.
Lu Feng's gun was stuck at his waist, and he took it over, then pulled Lu Feng up, lifted his arms with his shoulders, and tried to move him out of here.
But it was too difficult. He couldn't pull it. The distance between the seat and the front wall was too narrow. The pungent burning smell became heavier and heavier, and the sound of "hiss--" and "hiss--" came from the communicator, mixed with
The operator shouted: "The United Front Center is calling Colonel Lu Feng. Please answer when you receive it."
"The United Front Center is calling the PJ103 fighter aircraft. Please answer when you receive it."
The smoke became heavier and heavier, and the engine roared. An Zhe gritted his teeth and pulled hard——
He saw Lu Feng suddenly open his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the world was spinning. Lu Feng reached out to grab him, and kicked open the emergency exit door on the side with a flash of lightning. The steel fragments rolled down with thick smoke. Then, he suddenly pushed An Zhe onto himself.
With a tug, the two of them rolled heavily into the ground below, but Lu Feng did not stop. He held An Zhe's wrist with one hand and clasped his shoulder with the other hand, and the two of them fell together into the slightly concave terrain not far away.
place.
It hurt a little. An Zhe subconsciously hugged Lu Feng tightly. The next second, a deafening explosion sounded in his ears!
In the shallow pit, the ground trembled and earth and rocks rolled down. An Zhe looked up and saw a bright and intense firework exploding in the night sky. A raging flame suddenly burst into flames around the fighter plane. The heat flow rushed towards his face. The fire was like a golden lightning that lasted forever. The wreckage of the plane
Like meteors, they exploded in all directions. A person's broken hand was thrown high in the sky with the firework, briefly staying at the highest point, and then falling. The wrist fell outside, and the palm fell not far from them, stirring up a wave of excitement.
Puffy dust.
The plane blew itself up, just like the two accidents An Zhe had witnessed before.
Three seconds later, the explosion stopped, and the surrounding area was silent. Only the sound of wind and the whirring sound of flames blown by the wind were left, and thick smoke billowed up.
Just a little bit.
If he had not gone into the plane, Lu Feng's life might have ended in that explosion, and he would never know who died in the accident.
Or, even if he went inside the plane, Lu Feng didn't wake up in time, and it was the two of them who died.
After narrowly escaping from death, his heart felt a little stuffy, his blood was rushing up, his ears were buzzing, and he could only hear each other's breathing.
After a long time, he heard Lu Feng whisper: "...Thank you."
Anzhe gasped a few times, and his whole body ached. The pain caused when he fell to the ground was nothing, but the sequelae left by the electrocution and the rough treatment by the soldiers were more serious.
An Zhe raised his head.
Just like that, he and Lu Feng looked at each other.
In the few seconds when he looked at him, the pain of electric current piercing through his limbs surged up from the depths of An Zhe's consciousness. He seemed to be in the interrogation room of the small and cold ditch again, but this time the interrogator became Lu Feng.
.
Lu Feng made him feel more dangerous and scared than anyone else.
Lu Feng looked at him for a long time, and An Zhe couldn't understand his expression.
Lu Feng's voice was very low and he said word by word: "An Zhe?"
An Zhe said nothing.
The name on his ID card is An Ze, but he calls himself An Zhe. Even though there are many cases of people changing their names without authorization due to dissatisfaction with the randomly assigned names, it still cannot hide that this is a flaw in itself.
Those eyes - eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, were exactly the same as the day they first met. The day he walked into the city gate, he was ready to die under the gun of the judge, but that day, Lu Feng let him go.
But he couldn't escape, and the trial came only two months late.
He heard Lu Feng ask coldly: "Where is the sample?"
An Zhe couldn't answer this question, but the judge's tone and power frightened him more than electrocution. He bit his lip and finally said: "It's eaten...it's gone."
Lu Feng pressed his fingers on his abdomen, pressing down gently and forcefully. Through a thin layer of fabric, the touch was terrifyingly clear. An Zhe's whole body was numb with fear. He realized clearly that if Lu Feng
If Jie knew that the spores could still be taken out, he would not hesitate to cut open his body, just like he had cut off his hyphae with a saber half a year ago.
He couldn't think, his mind went blank. He could only look at Lu Feng. Under the moonlight and firelight, the colonel's face was expressionless. His thin and cold brows and thick, dark green eyes lacked even a trace of warmth and could not show any emotion.
He is always flawless and cold and ruthless.
An Zhe gasped lightly. He had originally hidden Lu Feng's gun behind his back, but now he continued to push it back quietly, trying to hide it more concealedly.
Anyway, without the gun, Lu Feng couldn't... couldn't do anything to him.
However, such an action made Lu Feng discover the existence of the gun. His eyes flashed, his movements were incredibly fast, and his strength could not tolerate any resistance. He held An Feng tightly in his arms with his backhand, and stretched out his other hand.
Open Anzhe's five fingers and quickly grab the gun.
Anzhe gasped violently and struggled to resist——
"boom!"
There was a gunshot.
An Zhe's mind went blank for a moment, but then he realized that he was still alive. He heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground in the distance, and accompanied by the monster's roar, he turned his head and saw a lizard-like monster that was hit by Lu Feng and struggled down.
Go down.
An Zhe trembled slightly, he knew that in this world, he and that monster were the same kind of thing, and Lu Feng and them were eternal enemies.
Lu Feng's communicator once again transmitted intermittent and distorted sounds amidst the harsh turbulence of electricity: "The command center is calling... 03 Fighter, please hear me..."
Lu Feng's cold voice answered the call: "Pj103 has been received, the fighter has crashed, and the pilot is confirmed dead."
"Please...task progress, send...coordinates."
The sound became increasingly distorted and intermittent. If it wasn't for the communicator having a problem, it was because the base's communication network covering the wild areas had collapsed again. During that month in the outer city, Anzhe learned from a few words from the mercenary team that the signal in the wilds had never been better.
.
Just listen to Lu Feng's voice: "The target is under control."
"...order, confirm...the mutation type, obtain the missing...clue...kill. Please——"
"Did you hear that?" Lu Feng's voice was hoarse, and his final voice seemed to be trembling a little, but it was more of a tough indifference: "Answer."
The cold muzzle of the gun touched An Zhe's temple. For the first time in his life, he realized that he was so close to death. Fear controlled him tightly. He trembled and said, "No... I won't give it."
"pj103, please immediately——"
The broadcast sound from the communicator pushed all emotions to the top.
Then it stopped abruptly the next moment.
"Buzz——"
The sound of the current became louder and louder, first a rustling sound, then a long buzzing sound, and finally disappeared suddenly after a sudden high-frequency sound.
It was replaced by a gentle frequency and a gentle female voice: "Sorry, due to the influence of solar wind or ionosphere, the base signal has been interrupted. This is a normal situation, please don't panic, all activities will continue as usual, and the communication signal will be restored from time to time.
A public broadcast will be sent to you, please stay tuned."
"Sorry, affected by solar wind or ionosphere..."
An Zhe was still being held tightly. They were so close. The distance was extremely dangerous. Lu Feng could kill him anytime and anywhere. He could also feel Lu Feng's heartbeat and breathing - he was so calm.
When I open my face, my heartbeat is not slow.
Lu Feng tightened his fingers on An Zhe's shoulder, and just happened to touch his injury. An Zhe shivered, his eyes were covered with a layer of water vapor, his body trembled, and he whimpered.
The cold muzzle of the gun was still pressed against his temple, not even a little warmed by his body warmth. The fear and shadow of death did not recede even a little bit. An Zhe opened his mouth. At that moment, he could hardly speak.
, he knew he had collapsed - if the mushroom would collapse too.
All the scenes in this life flashed back before his eyes, but he couldn't catch anything, and he couldn't get anything. Just the night before, he was still thinking about how to lie to protect the colonel.
"I... won't give it to you." He stretched out his hand to protect his abdomen, his voice trembled violently, broken into sentences, and he said with a cry, "I hate... you."
The muzzle of the gun suddenly trembled.
"...Please stay tuned."
The last sound of the broadcast fell.
Everything is quiet.
The fire in the wreckage was extinguished, the sound of the communicator stopped, and all connections were severed.
Here, there are no traces of human existence, surrounded by wilderness and endless desert, directly connected to the night sky.
It was as if no human being had ever existed. There was no human being, no human civilization, and no human base. All—all the struggles and entanglements suddenly disappeared as the signal disappeared.
There were only two of them left in this eternal desert.
With a dull sound, the whole gun fell to the ground.
Lu Feng closed his eyes and held An Zhe tightly in his arms.
The author has something to say: I'm sorry for being late. It was three or four o'clock in the night when I wrote this chapter last night. I used to write late at night, but I'm afraid I won't be able to write well this time.
Six o'clock in the morning is the best time for me to force myself to keep updating daily, but sometimes the state is not good or the 3D is very busy, and the quality is not satisfactory, so I can only postpone it. It is because I am not doing a good job. I will work hard next
Keep updating on time, thank you all for waiting for me.
Chapter completed!
