Chapter 2561 The temptation of huge losses (two chapters in one)
In the forest where humans have built many strongholds, there are several transport vehicles driving fast on the straight road.
At the front of the convoy, there was a vehicle from the Superpower Administration leading the way.
Today this convoy will go to Stronghold No. 45 to deliver supplies to the warehouse in the gathering point.
After breakfast in the morning, the convoy set off and has been driving on the road for nearly two hours.
Recently, the forest has been quite peaceful, and there have been no large-scale attacks by strange beasts on the stronghold.
On the transport vehicle, the driver was humming a tune and looked very calm.
The scenery on both sides of the road flashed by quickly. Occasionally, I looked at the tall trees in the distance and saw some strange-looking birds standing on the branches.
There are countless towering trees, and the bright sunshine is blocked by the lush branches and leaves, forming a large area of shade under the trees.
The convoy passed under the shade of the trees, and when it was about to arrive at Stronghold No. 45, the investigator who was leading the way in front of the convoy stopped the car.
"Crack."
The car has stopped, and the transport trucks behind it have also stopped one after another.
The driver who was humming a little tune saw this scene and knew that there was a high probability that a battle would happen next, so he stopped singing and looked around curiously, wondering from which direction the alien beasts would attack?
It's not that the driver didn't feel nervous at all when faced with danger, but he had experienced this kind of thing many times before, and each time it was easily resolved by the investigators, so his current mentality is relatively calm.
The investigators in the car got out of the car and quickly formed a defensive formation.
The captain of the team looked seriously in one direction on the roadside, and then said to his companions.
"Are you sure this is the direction?"
The investigator wearing sunglasses nodded, "My superpower prompts that there are several psychic waves in this direction that are approaching us quickly."
The captain thought for a moment, and then he began to arrange a battle plan.
Not long after, the investigators present could sense psychic energy fluctuations in front of them.
Now these psychic fluctuations are not far from the convoy, and the specific number is very clear.
"Act according to the plan." The captain shouted, and then led a few people towards the place where psychic fluctuations appeared in the distance.
The investigators who stayed on the spot guarded the convoy. The main reason why they stopped the car and chose to fight instead of accelerating to Stronghold No. 45 was because they were worried that the convoy would be attacked while driving, which would cause greater losses.
Stopping the convoy to meet the challenge will make it easier to resist the menacing beasts.
The departing captain led a few companions through the woods. They moved very quickly, and after a while they arrived very close to the alien beast.
Suddenly, the investigator wearing sunglasses shouted, "Danger, everyone disperse."
Because the investigator's awakened power is to amplify mental perception, he can detect the movements of strange beasts more clearly and accurately than others, so when he opened his mouth, others immediately followed suit without any suspicion.
The investigators quickly dispersed. Their speed was very fast, and in the blink of an eye they were in an open field more than ten meters away.
"boom."
An air bomb flew from a distance and landed where the investigator was standing. It immediately blasted a huge crater into the ground and the shock wave destroyed the surrounding flowers, plants and trees.
The captain stared intently at the direction where the air bomb was coming from, and he saw a huge, gray-skinned alien looking at him proudly.
"roar……"
The alien beast roared and used its superpower to attack the investigators again.
The lethality of air bombs is amazing, but the flying speed is a bit uninteresting.
For investigators who have experienced many battles, it is not difficult to avoid the damage of these air bombs as long as they can take precautions in advance.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
A series of explosions sounded one after another in the forest, and the drivers of the transport team could hear it clearly.
Although I have seen investigators fighting strange beasts before, this was the first time I encountered such a fierce battle as today.
A middle-aged man got off the transport truck and walked towards the investigator who was standing guard, asking for information.
Not long after, he returned to the car, and at this time his colleague sitting in the passenger seat asked.
"How to say?"
"The investigator said we don't need to worry. It won't take long for all the incoming alien beasts to be taken care of..." the middle-aged man replied.
In this situation, they can only wait patiently for the results. This is all they can do.
The intense situation lasted for more than ten minutes, and everyone who stayed behind waited anxiously.
At this time, the sound of fighting subsided, and after a while, the figure returned to the transport team.
"Captain, are you okay?"
"I suffered a slight injury, nothing serious."
"Have all those strange beasts been killed?"
"I killed a few of them, and the others escaped."
After chatting for a while, the captain began to order the transportation team to continue setting off.
Although the battle just now was difficult, victory belonged to the human side.
Now repel the incoming alien beasts, and then hurry up and rush to Stronghold No. 45 to avoid a similar situation happening again.
The transport team set off, and the vehicle drove quickly on the straight road, heading towards Stronghold No. 45.
When the convoy left, on the top of a hill in the distance, several injured beasts looked at the human convoy with fear in their eyes.
"These guys are tougher than we thought."
"Yes! If I hadn't run so fast just now, I would have died in their hands."
"After passing this test, we have to take a long-term approach after we return, and we cannot rashly attack these guys again."
Several injured beasts whispered, then they turned around and came down from the hill, running deeper into the forest.
The transport team moved forward and soon arrived at Stronghold No. 45.
The guard standing guard at the door opened the door, and the convoy entered the stronghold and stopped at the entrance of the warehouse.
The person in charge of the stronghold knew that the transport team was attacked on its way and immediately dispatched manpower to strengthen the defense of the gathering point.
Regarding what happened this time, relevant news was transmitted back to the base camp at an extremely fast speed.
There has been peace for so long, and an attack by a strange beast on such a scale today has aroused many doubts.
The base camp immediately mobilized a reconnaissance team to conduct investigations where fierce fighting broke out.
…………
"Ha~"
There was a sound of yawning in the quiet bedroom. Lin Fei woke up from his nap and was in a daze on the bed for a while, then he got up and got out of bed.
The weather outside the window has changed a lot. The sky was still overcast in the morning, and now the sky outside has become pitch black.
Big raindrops fell from the clouds, and the rain hit the windows, making a crackling sound.
As the rain fell heavier and heavier, the raindrops formed a line and were blown around randomly by the wind.
Lin Fei went to the bathroom to wash up. When he came out, he felt refreshed and there was no sleepiness on his face.
It was raining heavily outside the window. Lin Fei came to the sliding door and looked out to the balcony through the glass.
The rainwater falling from the sky was blown into the balcony by the wind, and the various potted plants on the balcony were watered by the rainwater, which saved the time of watering them.
The rain started after lunch, and now it has been several hours. The rain has not stopped, and it is getting heavier and heavier.
Lin Fei looked at the weather outside for a while, then went to the living room to watch TV.
Time passed quickly, and as evening approached, the sky outside was much darker than usual.
The street lights were on, and the dim light looked hazy in the rain.
Apart from the sound of rain, no other sounds of play could be heard in the community.
Usually at this time, children after school would chase and play in the community, with cheerful laughter one after another.
"Ding dong."
Check out the correct version one by one!
The cell phone placed on the sofa suddenly rang. Lin Fei was watching a TV series. When he heard the cell phone rang, he immediately reached out and picked it up to check.
It was a voice message from Zhou Yue. He tapped the screen with his finger, and a pleasant voice immediately came from the phone.
"It's raining so hard now!"
"Yes, are you getting off work soon?"
"It will take a while."
"Are you waiting for your general manager?"
"Um."
"It's raining so hard. Do you need me to pick you up after you finish attending the banquet?"
"If you don't mind it, I hope you will pick me up!"
The two chatted and made an appointment with Zhou Yue to attend the banquet in the evening and Lin Fei to pick her up.
After finishing the chat, Zhou Yue just put down the phone when the general manager's call came in.
Zhou Yue answered the phone and soon heard Wang Lan's voice coming from the phone, "My meeting is over. Let's go now. Come and find me."
"Okay, Sister Lan." Zhou Yue responded with a smile, then she hung up the phone, packed up the things on the table, and left the office with her bag.
In the underground parking lot, the elevator door opened, and a graceful figure walked out of the elevator.
A luxurious black car was parked in the distance. The window of the back seat was opened. A middle-aged woman saw Zhou Yue coming out of the elevator and immediately shouted.
Zhou Yue heard the sound, walked over quickly, opened the back seat of the car and got in.
The driver and bodyguard was a woman in her thirties, very capable. After Zhou Yue got into the car and sat down, the driver immediately started the car and drove the two of them to the banquet.
"The weather is really bad today. After the banquet, I asked Xiao He to take you home." The general manager glanced at the pouring rain and said to Zhou Yue with a smile.
"Thank you, but no need. Someone will pick me up after the banquet." Zhou Yue said with a smile.
"Is it your boyfriend coming to pick you up?"
"Um."
The two chatted, and not long after, the car arrived at the entrance of a luxurious five-star hotel.
The general manager and Zhou Yue got off the car and walked into the hotel. Immediately, a receptionist came to receive them and led them forward.
…………
With endless mountains stacked upon each other, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead ran quickly.
There was a big tree over 100 meters ahead. He came to the big tree and jumped up. He raised his hands to grab the branches and quickly climbed to the top of the tree using his hands and feet.
Not long after, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the top of the big tree and looked around.
As far as the eye could see, there was a lot of white mist in an area in the distance.
You must know that it is still afternoon at this time, when the sun is strong and the temperature is high, so there should not be so much white mist.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the area shrouded in white mist in the distance and had many doubts in his heart.
To say that the white mist is naturally occurring is obviously not very likely.
There are currently many alien beasts competing for territory in this area, and the white mist that appears now is most likely caused by the alien beasts using their powers.
"I have to go and investigate and take some precautions in advance..."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood on the tree and observed, his thoughts running rapidly in his mind. He made up his mind and quickly came down from the tree.
Early this morning, he set out from the camp and immediately went to the various outposts built yesterday to check on the status of the pig-headed warriors.
After a whole night, the pig-headed warriors on duty at the outpost were all safe and sound, which made people breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead told the pig-headed soldier on the mission to pay attention to safety, and he began to patrol the surrounding area, looking for traces of strange beasts.
Especially those powerful beasts, he should pay special attention to.
"call……"
Strong winds blew in the forest, and the white mist blown by the wind surged rapidly.
But even as the wind continued to increase, the white mist only surged in place and was not blown away.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked forward and soon arrived dozens of meters away from the area shrouded in white mist.
This distance is already very close to him.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stopped and stared at the place shrouded in white mist not far away.
He observed for a while and found that as long as it was shrouded in white mist, he could not hear the chirping of insects and birds.
The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is now in the woods or bushes behind him, and from time to time there will be the sound of insects or birds.
Comparing the before and after, there is such an obvious gap. As long as there is no problem with the ears, you can know that the area covered by the white mist has been affected to a certain extent, which leads to this situation.
Based on past experience, the pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, could already conclude that the white mist was created by alien beasts.
Now he wanted to know the strength of the strange beast that created this white mist, but he didn't know how to start.
Entering a place shrouded in white mist to search is not a good idea. After all, if you enter such an abnormal place and are attacked by alien beasts, your combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced due to the influence of the white mist, and you will die if you fail to protect yourself.
"What to do now?"
"Other than entering the area shrouded in white fog to explore, there is currently no better way."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stared at the abnormal area, his eyes flickering, calculating the gains and losses.
Just when he couldn't make up his mind, a beast's roar sounded deep in the area shrouded in white mist.
Even from a long distance away, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead could clearly hear the roar of the beast.
