Chapter 52: Sudden bad news (seeking monthly ticket)
Before he finished speaking, a teleportation array rose up under Po Jun Thirteen's feet.
As Gao Fei watched the company commander's figure disappear into the beam of teleportation light, he felt an inexplicable feeling of intense uneasiness in his heart.
The vehicle assigned to Team 05, the police van, had been smashed into pieces by the White-haired Ape King. It could not be repaired no matter what. Gao Fei and others could only walk back to the hotel where they were stationed.
On the way, I was stopped by passers-by from time to time and asked to take photos with them, which was very annoying.
It took more than half an hour for everyone to return to the hotel, wash up and then go downstairs to have dinner.
Sitting at the dining table, Gao Fei habitually opened the astrolabe, checked the changes in the special service points rankings, and found that he had jumped to the first place.
When he first saw the ranking, he thought it was mainly due to hunting down the White-haired Ape King. However, after looking at the list carefully, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought.
Liu Xingyu, who was originally ranked in front of him, and Lin Qi, who was ranked behind him, both disappeared from the list.
How is this going?
Gao Fei immediately thought of a possibility.
When a Tiangong special police officer is urgently recovered due to serious injuries, or dies on the battlefield and is unable to continue to perform his duties, his name will be removed from the special service points ranking list.
This thought made him shudder, and he was unwilling to admit that this was the reason why Liu Xingyu and Lin Qi had withdrawn from the list. He quickly sent a letter to Lin Qi through the astrolabe, asking her how she was doing, but there was no reply for a long time.
"Gao Fei, have you noticed that Liu Xingyu, who was originally ranked first on the site, Lin Qi, who was ranked third, and Penny, who was ranked tenth, seem to have disappeared from the list."
Jiang Feng also discovered the same problem.
Gao Fei managed to remain calm and nodded slightly.
"I sent a letter to Lin Qi just now, but she didn't reply."
"Then you try sending letters to Liu Xingyu and Penny again."
"OK."
Gao Fei sent two more text messages of greetings, but the result was the same as always.
"Brother Fei, I don't want to say anything negative, but I have to worry... Team 01's trip to the mountains to hunt Lord Lei this time may not go well." Qi Tian expressed his concerns as tactfully as possible.
Gao Fei said nothing, the ominous premonition in his heart getting stronger and stronger.
Ma Tao frowned, opened the astrolabe, logged into the Tianren Forum, and posted a message inquiring about the whereabouts of Team 01. However, after waiting for half an hour, no one with knowledge of the matter responded.
The six special police officers of Team 01, especially Lin Qi, Penny and Liu Xingyu, are Gao Fei's best colleagues in the company, and of course they are also their strongest competitors.
Even if personal relationships are not considered, at least Team 01 helped them in a critical moment this morning, and everyone is grateful for it. Now that they know that Team 01 is in a worrying situation, they are inevitably worried and have no appetite for dinner.
Everyone hurriedly filled their stomachs and continued to wait in the restaurant, hoping that the members of Team 01 would return safely.
However, until 9 o'clock in the evening, the dining table dedicated to Team 01 was still empty, and not a single person appeared.
Just when everyone had lost hope, Wang Daqing suddenly jumped up, waved and shouted at the door of the restaurant.
"Xiao Wu! Come here quickly! It's so late, why did you just come back?"
Gao Fei looked up at the door of the restaurant and saw a familiar figure. It was Wu Qihang, the fourth figure of the 01 team, a level 5 Tiangong special police officer and a level 5 priest.
Behind Wu Qihang, there was also a dejected bald young man named Liao Kai, a paladin of Team 01.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Liao, why are you two alone, and where are Lin Qi and the others?" Gao Fei couldn't help but stepped forward to inquire.
"Brother Fei...I'm sorry, Sister Lin, Brother Liu, Xiao Pan and Zhang Sheng...can't come back." Wu Qihang choked with sobs.
Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other, their hearts heavy and unspeakably uncomfortable.
"Xiao Wu, don't be impatient. Sit down and talk slowly. What happened?" Wang Daqing patted Wu Qihang on the shoulder and consoled him.
After some questioning, Gao Fei finally learned the whole story.
Just as Jiang Feng had worried beforehand, Team 01 was overconfident.
They made a lot of preparations to hunt down "Lord Thunder". They thought they were sure of victory, but they still underestimated the opponent's tyrannical strength. They didn't expect that this mutated wild boar actually had 5 points of intelligence attribute, compared to the average intelligence of only 2 points.
Ordinary wild boars are simply the crouching dragon and phoenix chicks among wild boars!
Just this evening, when they arrived at the valley near Nuorilang Waterfall, they followed the thunderous roar of wild boars and searched all the way, and quickly found their target.
Next to the Thunder Boar, whose manes sparkled with electric sparks, there were two personal bodyguards. They were both mutant boars that were as big as a yak. The scientific name given in the astrolabe database was "Ferocious Boar" - look at the names.
You know that this is a mutation sequence similar to dire rats and dire apes.
With Lord Lei at challenge level 8 and two ferocious wild boars at challenge level 4, this lineup did not exceed Team 01's expectations and launched the offensive according to the battle plan formulated in advance.
Team leader Liu Xingyu ordered his natural partner "the creeping monster" to stand in front and use this large supernatural plant's special physique to absorb electrical energy to fight against the lightning beams ejected by Lord Lei.
Because Lord Lei's attack was so fierce, the creeping monster could no longer hold on any longer, so Liu Xingyu launched a backup plan, transforming himself into a "killer vine" that was also immune to electric shocks to help the creeping monster entangle Lord Lei.
At the same time, Lin Qi and Penny, who had been blessed with "anti-electricity barriers" in advance, were also besieging Lord Lei, forming a strong "iron triangle" with Liu Xingyu, constantly consuming Lord Lei's strong vitality.
As for the two ferocious wild boars, they were left to the second-tier members of the team—Wu Qihang, Liao Kai, and the ranger Zhang Sheng who had tamed a ferocious ape as a natural companion to fight together.
In the initial period, the battlefield situation was completely under the control of Team 01.
Wu Qihang and others took the lead in killing the two ferocious wild boars, and then assisted three teammates in besieging Lord Lei.
Just when they thought the situation was decided, Lord Lei suddenly roared three times to the sky, and wild boars howled from the dense forests on both sides of the valley, as if in response to the king's call.
Immediately afterwards, four ferocious wild boars suddenly rushed out of the dense forest, immediately disrupting Team 01's position!
They never expected that Lord Lei would be so cunning, ambush a new force in the dense forest in advance, and when they thought victory was imminent and unknowingly relaxed their vigilance, he suddenly came out and caught them off guard.
What happened next was like a living nightmare, leaving Wu Qihang and Liao Kai with an indelible psychological shadow that they almost dare not recall again.
