Chapter 70: Martyrs

After receiving treatment, the young man's face looked much better.

He sat up with support, his face full of gratitude. Just as he was about to thank Gao Fei and Huang Hansheng, he suddenly started retching.

Huang Hansheng had already found a plastic bag and was waiting nearby.

Seeing the young man showing symptoms of nausea, he quickly opened the plastic bag and signaled him to vomit into the plastic bag.

The young man lowered his head and started to vomit.

The vomit was filled with foul-smelling mud.

Jiang Feng heard the sound of vomiting and couldn't help but care. He came over and took a look.

"Strange, why did you vomit up a pile of mud?"

"No one would swallow mud into their stomach for no reason." Gao Fei turned around and smiled, making an explicit "tongue kiss" gesture towards his girlfriend, "Unless someone forcefully poured it into his stomach."

"Ah? This..." Jiang Feng vaguely guessed something. He was so curious that he couldn't bear it, but he was too embarrassed to ask.

"This young man was tall and handsome. He was spotted by a witch and raped him..."

The older security guard next to him revealed the truth in a low voice.

Jiang Feng wiped away cold sweat.

She complained to her boyfriend with mixed emotions: "This guy is really miserable! Just think about the smell of the Mud Demon... I guess he will never be able to get rid of the psychological shadow in his life!"

Ma Tao and others searched other rooms on the second floor and found no trapped persons, so they came to join them and escorted the rescued persons to seek refuge.

Before leaving, Gao Fei suddenly remembered something.

"Which one of you posted the distress message on social media?"

The four men looked at each other, looking a little weird.

"I have been sending distress messages since this morning." One of the bald security guards raised his hand with an embarrassed look on his face.

"What about yesterday?" Gao Fei asked calmly.

The man remained silent and looked at the deceased who was nailed to the wall.

"The monster forced us to ask for help from the outside world. The first person responsible for sending the distress message was Lao Zheng."

"After that, two waves of rescue teams came, and both were attacked and killed by monsters."

"It was only then that we realized the monster's insidious intentions, deliberately using us as bait and using the distress information we posted to attract people to come and die."

"Those despicable monsters, in order to lure rescuers to the bait, will even provide us with food to prevent us from starving or thirsting and losing the bait."

The bald security guard complained angrily.

"Old Zheng saw through the monster's conspiracy, so he secretly sent a message to expose the truth and prevent others from coming to die again."

"Unfortunately, the monster noticed it not long after this message was sent out. He brutally killed Lao Zheng and nailed his body to the wall as a warning to us."

The bald security guard continued:

"The leader of the monsters, that witch covered in mud, forced me to take over Lao Zheng's cell phone and withdraw the message I sent... You all know what happened next without me telling you."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but choke up.

He lowered his head with tears in his eyes.

It was obvious that he was blaming himself for his cowardice.

Although he also thought about preferring death to surrender like Lao Zheng, in the face of the threat of the devil, he finally chose to compromise and was forced to play an unseemly role.

Gao Fei couldn't bear to blame him.

After all, from a legal perspective, it is understandable to choose emergency evacuation when life is threatened.

As for whether you can get rid of the guilt in the days to come, it is not something outsiders can interfere with.

Facing the coercion of the devil, adhering to justice and willing to die rather than surrender, this is not something ordinary people can do.

Even mutants with supernatural abilities and the Tiangong special police who are tasked with fighting against demons are very rare to be able to stick to their principles without fear of death threats.

What's more, ordinary people like Lao Zheng don't have any superpowers and have no obligation to fight against demons.

Because of this, his sacrifice is even more valuable.

Such a civilian hero who has nothing but integrity and courage, and who does not hesitate to sacrifice his own life to convey the truth to the outside world, is more worthy of people's praise and memory.

Gao Fei pulled out the spear on the wall, collected Lao Zheng's body, and left it for burial after the disaster.

It was already dark outside the window.

A thrilling and busy day passed just like that.

The rain was still falling, but Gao Fei clearly felt that the rain had weakened and the concentration of magic power in the clouds was also declining.

Maybe this means that the disaster is about to pass, and the day when the rainbow will appear again after the rain is not far away?

The SWAT officers escorted the rescued people downstairs, put them on assault boats, and then returned to the hotel where they were stationed to rest.

Today's task ends here.

On the way back, Gao Fei checked the level data of the SWAT team.

Ma Tao and Qi Tian's special police levels have both been upgraded to level 11.

Li Jiajia and Ma Yun were promoted to level 9 special police officers together.

Xiao Ma’s progress is particularly outstanding, firmly occupying the top spot in the newcomer rankings on the entire site.

Wang Daqing's main profession could have been upgraded to level 11, but due to the needs of the team, he had previously used most of the experience points accumulated today to upgrade his secondary profession. The paladin was upgraded to level 8, and he learned the 2nd level divine spell."

Protective against toxins”.

Huang Hansheng and Hao Le also entered the rankings of newcomers on the site, one ranked third and the other ranked fifth.

The second and fourth place in front of them both belong to Team 11 - the newcomers under the supervision of Team 01.

The special police levels of Huang Hansheng and Hao Le remain unchanged at level 7, while their main and secondary occupations have been upgraded by one level each.

Huang Hansheng is now a level 6 radiant apostle, with 15 fire and radiant resistance points each, and has also mastered the 2nd level divine spell "Falling Step".



Lost Step: Spend a bonus action to be enveloped in silver-white mist and teleport instantly to an unoccupied position within the movement range of this round. If you move in this way, you will not suffer attacks of opportunity.



Similar to "Transformation", "Traveling Step" is also a very practical low-level teleportation spell.

Although the range of teleportation is relatively narrow, only equivalent to the walking distance in six seconds, it is still very good to use this move to escape when you are trapped in a tight siege.

Hao Le's Swordsman has also been upgraded to level 6, and the newly learned professional ability is the famous "Ghost Strike"!

Thieves are just "opportunists" in the early stages.

If there is no chance to get behind the enemy and stab him in the back, and there are no teammates in the front row to provide a flanking attack, the rogue's strongest "sneak attack" ability cannot be used, and he can only play the role of soy sauce.

But after learning "Ghost Strike", the thieves profession immediately turned around and became more prosperous!

Even if no one provides a flanking attack, you can't go around and stab in the back. You can also use "Ghost Strike" to attack from the front and teach your opponent how to behave!

For creatures that were previously unable to sneak attack, such as elements, undead, mud monsters, plants, constructs, etc., if you turn on "Ghost Strike", you can still deal sneak attack damage.
