However, Zhou You was not interested in asking for more information. Instead, he turned to look at Jiang Qianyun's office and asked: "Aren't you going to return to life? Is it appropriate to leave me to chat with you?"
"Oh, yes, yes, we will talk about it later, business is more important!"
After hearing this, Luo Xun immediately turned around and ran away.
She still knows some sense of propriety.
But Luo Xun didn't know. When Zhou You heard that this was a serious matter, his heart skipped a beat and he even panicked.
He thought to himself, it's over, my brain circuit has been driven into the ditch by Yuan Yike.
I'm not pure anymore!
Business is important, not that!
When Luo Xun and his party were leaving, Zhouyou called Lin Yao and the others to follow, and said casually: "She has been a little unusual these past two days. Xiaoling, don't worry about it."
Unexpectedly, Lin Yao and Li Xiaoling retorted in unison.
Lin Yao: "I think Sister Luo Xun is right."
Li Xiaoling: "Mr. Zhou, I think I should really train seriously."
Zhou You looked away, thinking that it was better to forget it, the world was hopeless.
In the next time, he didn't go anywhere. Instead, he took Lin Yao and his team to find a relatively spacious conference room that was very close to the elevator and made plans.
He was accompanied by technical personnel, all of whom were casually wearing replaced basic bamboo armors, so he did not dare to wander around and had to ensure the safety of these people.
But when it was about ten o'clock in the evening, when everyone was closing in and going home to rest, Jiang Qianyun hurriedly called.
There's something going on in the basement.
In the previous sealing work, the basement was the focus from the beginning.
After all, up to ten tons of diesel are stored here, as well as important key equipment such as diesel generators.
However, the design drawings show that the need to prevent rodent infestation was very specifically considered when designing the club building. Both the ventilation ducts and the water and electricity pipe network were sealed with additional steel wire mesh and cement.
The construction team also checked each room in detail to make sure nothing was missing before leaving with confidence and shifting their focus to other directions.
During the second review, the construction team also reviewed the basement first.
But at 9:30 a.m., after my eldest uncle heard that the team was to close on time at 10 p.m., he didn't know why he took the initiative to go to the basement again for a third verification.
My eldest uncle's request is quite reasonable, and my cousin and his wife who are traveling around also want to accompany me.
Jiang Qianyun thought for a moment and temporarily organized a relatively elite team to accompany him down to the basement.
This elite team includes Luo Xun, Yuan Yike, Tang Dahe and He Zhongyou and other elite combat forces.
In addition, there are more than 20 first batch combatants, who can be said to be well-equipped and strong.
Except for the two over-limit members Zhou You and Jiang Qianyun who are not present, this can already be called the strongest team of the Zhou family.
It stands to reason that such an elite team cannot have any problems. This is the third verification. Everyone is a little too relaxed. They even forgot to bring a phone and watch when they went down.
But just tens of seconds ago, Tang Dahe, covered in blood, appeared in front of Jiang Qianyun's office.
Tang Dahe told Jiang Qianyun that after everyone went down, everything went smoothly, but just when everyone checked the room where the diesel generator was stored and prepared to return, they suddenly found that the escape route was blocked.
What blocks the road is an astonishing number of rats.
No one knows where these rats came from, but they just appeared so unreasonably.
When Tang Dahe reported the situation to Jiang Qianyun, he casually gave the statistics that there were at least three to four hundred.
But this data may not be accurate and is just an estimate.
In the basement, Yuan Yi, who was in the tactical command position, made a quick decision. Considering that everyone did not carry communication tools, they could not just retreat. They had to rush forward at all costs and fight a way out first. At least they had to.
Send someone up to report the news.
Yuan Yike's decision cannot be said to be wrong, it can be said to be absolutely correct.
The initial breakout went very smoothly, but just when everyone was about to reach the stairs, all the lights in the basement went out at the same time.
This nest of rats actually knows how to chew through wires!
Although human beings' night vision has improved, their night vision ability is still not comparable to that of mice who are born to walk in the dark.
When the lights go out, humans are immediately at a complete disadvantage.
Fortunately, my traveling cousin, as a non-combatant, is not qualified to wear aluminum alloy armor, which has the best performance but is still insufficient in production. He only wears bamboo armor, and he does not carry a gas tank or cylinder nail gun. He carries the lowest-end one.
lighter and nail gun, and he also brought two brand new disposable lighters as backup.
My cousin-in-law, who was protected behind the crowd, immediately lit the lighter.
Relying on the dim light of the lighter behind them, the people who had been in confusion quickly regained their composure, and poured out firepower wildly on the rats that had taken advantage of the darkness to kill them. They even launched a counterattack, knocking down the rats and almost dragging them away.
Three or four combatants were able to snatch it back.
At this time, Yuan Yike also used the light of the lighter to quickly complete the terrain observation, and ordered Tang Dahe, who was in the best position and should be in the best physical and endurance condition among all the people present, to prepare for a solo breakout.
Later, Yuan could also ask everyone not to use nail guns and could only use melee weapons to defend against the enemy. At the same time, he also asked everyone to use only melee weapons to strengthen the offensive. No matter what, they must fight to the bottom of the stairs.
There, there is an underground power distribution room that has completed all maintenance work.
Although the door of the power distribution room is tightly closed, the louvered ventilation hole below has been completely cut, and there is a door opening with a threshold that is 40 cm wide.
If everyone could retreat into this door, they would at least have a chance to survive the attacks of hundreds of rats for a while.
Just as everyone was struggling to reach the entrance of the stairs, Yuan Yike suddenly shouted and ordered everyone to aim their nail guns at the rats from everyone's position to the direction of the stairs.
More than twenty powerful nail guns fired at the same time, which indeed caused considerable damage to the dozens of rats here.
In particular, Luo Xun, who holds a nail gun in each hand and has been specially modified to have automatic loading capabilities and can fire one shot per second and ten shots in a row, was able to empty out two newly replaced nails in one go.
I put a new magazine on it and fired twenty rounds.
Luo Xun did not fire with the others, but deliberately delayed it for two seconds, observing the situation with the dim light of the lighter, and then targeted the rats that had slipped through the net but were not shot, and shot them specifically in the neck.
Or vitals like eyes, mouth, and nose.
Luo Xun alone, in the next ten seconds, achieved results comparable to those of ten people.
When the rat here was seriously injured and staggering around, Yuan Yike loudly reminded Tang Dahe and asked him to break out immediately and go to the top to report the news.
Like Zhou You, Tang Dahe, who was holding a short gun in each hand, immediately rushed to the stairs.
Although some lucky mice who were not shot tried to stop him, Tang Dahe managed to fight his way out of the encirclement by relying on his superior combat power.
Of course, during this period, Tang Dahe also received help from other people below. Many people tried their best to put aside their melee weapons and let the rats rush in front of them. They also forcibly completed reloading to provide suppressive fire support for Tang Dahe who broke out.
After asking about the situation in a few words, Jiang Qianyun immediately informed Zhou You.
At the same time, another distant relative of the Jiang family who was also in Jiang Qianyun's office immediately turned on the public address system in the club building, informed everyone of the danger, and asked all non-combatants to go into hiding immediately and prepare for war.
The combatants immediately gathered at the basement stairs.
Jiang Qianyun did not let these people go underground spontaneously.
Although Tang Dahe judged that there were three to four hundred rats, those were just random glances taken by people in emergency situations and could not be accurate.
Jiang Qianyun chose to prepare for the worst and consider increasing the number of rats.
If these combatants are allowed to go down on their own in an unorganized and undisciplined manner, they will inevitably end up in a situation like Calabash Boy saving Grandpa. Not only will they not be able to save anyone, but they will easily get themselves involved again.
Zhou You moved very quickly. After receiving a call from Jiang Qianyun and learning that something happened in the basement, he immediately asked Lin Yao and others to meet up at Jiang Qianyun's office. As for himself, he ran towards the stairs and jumped two stairs at a time.
, quickly went down to the first floor like a civet cat, and rushed to the stairs.
At this time, about twenty combatants had gathered at the stairs.
This team was led by Sun Yingjun.
Sun Yingjun wanted to rush down immediately, but he did not dare to act rashly without receiving a clear order from Jiang Qianyun.
After all, although Sun Yingjun has amazing strange powers, and his absolute power is stronger than the two super-limiters Lin Yao and Jiang Qianyun, he himself has been just a coolie worker at the bottom of society for many years, with an honest and honest personality, and he is really not good at making decisions and giving orders.
people.
Just when Sun Yingjun was hesitant and wanted others to obey Jiang Qianyun's arrangement and wait where they were, while he tried to rush down first, Zhou You arrived.
This is great, as soon as the tour comes around, everyone immediately has a backbone.
Zhou You only thought for five seconds before formulating a battle plan.
"I stepped forward, and all the first melee team members raised their shields in their left hands and swords in their right hands to form an array of arrows. They walked down with me. The width of the stairs was one and a half meters, and the distance between each person was maintained at two minutes.
Within meters, all the elite soldiers helped me put together short spears and combine them into long spears. They followed me and the melee team members in the second row, keeping a staggered arrangement with the front row. They took advantage of the length of the long spears and faced each other from our shoulders and sides.
The enemy is stabbing."
"The rest of the melee team members stand in the third row, behind the elite team members. They mainly use long-range weapons. They use the height of the stairs to cover the strikes from top to bottom. Pay attention to the parabola when shooting to prevent accidental injuries to comrades. All long-range team members stand further back.
, to carry out covering strikes against enemies farther behind. When carrying out long-range strikes, it is best to avoid salvos and instead fire at misplaced positions to avoid wasting firepower caused by multiple people aiming at the same target at the same time."
"In addition, long-range team members whose marksmanship is not accurate enough should not pursue fatal damage and only aim to hit the target. Those who have just become combat team members today and whose shooting skills are average are responsible for holding their mobile phones and providing lighting."
After Zhou You said these words, he took the lead and stood at the front.
The other combat team members quickly followed his arrangements to form a battle formation.
This entire process only took less than thirty seconds, during which several combat team members also arrived one after another.
There was no need to go around and re-issue orders. As soon as these people saw the formation on the scene, they immediately took the positions according to their roles.
"Go downstairs!"
Zhou You gave the order and the team began to move downstairs.
When I first went down the stairs, the visibility was pretty good with the lights on the first floor. But after walking around the corner and reaching a place where the lights on the first floor couldn't reach it, the external environment immediately turned dark. Even with my traveling eyesight, I could only see
I could barely see black shadows flashing below me from time to time.
At this time, a total of three mobile phones held by the remote team members following the team came into play.
As three mobile phones turned on their flashlights at the same time, the road ahead immediately became brighter again.
The team's progress accelerated again.
It only took everyone less than two minutes to successfully descend to the basement stairs and see what was going on in the passage.
Even though he has traveled around a lot now, he has seen a lot, but he was still shocked by the sight in front of him.
So many rats!
Just looking at the densely packed place can cause trypophobia and physical and mental discomfort.
Tang Dahe reported that there were about two to three hundred.
But Zhou You couldn't be sure whether Tang Dahe had seen it wrong or whether the mice hadn't arrived at all at that time.
In the long passage, there are at least a thousand rats packed together densely.
With the help of the lights from three mobile phones, Zhou You recalled the design drawings he glanced at at Jiang Qianyun's side, and immediately guessed where the mice came from.
He raised his head and looked deeper into the passage, and sure enough he saw something unusual with his stronger low-light vision.
Above the basement passage, there is a DN150 pipe used to provide air circulation. The main material of this pipe is a galvanized steel pipe painted with anti-rust paint, but the air valve is made of polypropylene plastic.
At this time, a large hole with a diameter of one decimeter had been gnawed out of the ball of the polypropylene valve, and there were several mice poking their heads over there, using their teeth to continue to gnaw at the valve crazily.
When seeing this scene, Zhou You immediately made a judgment in his mind.
Obviously, Yulong Community must have produced the Rat King just like the old building facing the street where Lin Yao's home is located.
And because the scale of Yulong Community is much larger than the single-family building where Lin Yao's family is located, the size of the team led by this rat king is more than ten times that of the original rat king.
What’s even more frightening is that no small baby rats were seen when traveling around the site, but only adults and young rats that were at least over 15 centimeters in length.
Zhou You was shocked to the core by this situation.
Currently, there are not many food reserves in the small club building.
Therefore, the purpose of a group of rats of this size gathering here and launching a counterattack from the basement was definitely not an instinctive action in pursuit of food like it was at Lin Yao's house.
There is another deep meaning behind this incident.
The Rat King observed the actions of humans and judged that humans planned to capture the Yulong Community Club Building and plan to take root again here.
After weighing the situation, the Rat King chose to strike first.
The purpose may be to destroy the vanguard of humans, or it may be to occupy a favorable position before humans, or it may simply be to prevent human actions.
In short, all this shows that the Rat King of Yulong Community has higher intelligence.
Under his leadership, this group of rats has completely jumped out of the instinctive behavior mode of animals, and has taken another big step towards true humanoidization.
The only good news that Zhou You has found so far is that he has not found any new rats reappearing from the valve.
The few rats still chewing on the valves are probably only responsible for widening the road.
The size of the enemy was so huge that many of the soldiers present were filled with fear and hesitated for a while.
At this time, most of the rats in the passage focused their attention on the ventilation hole of the power distribution room door next to the stairway. They were making strange noises and rushing in like a zombie siege.
The attack of the rat army was very crazy, stacked on top of each other to form a three-dimensional offensive, and then surged inside like a wave.
The people inside did not give up their struggle. Occasionally, firelight shone outside through the gaps in the rat pile, and from time to time when walking around, one could see spears being stabbed from inside to outside through the firelight.
Counting the time, about four or five minutes have passed since everyone was in danger, then trapped in the power distribution room, and now you are leading the team to kill the generals.
The elite team led by Yuan Yike is indeed powerful.
Even though there is such a disparity in numbers between the two sides, they are still able to rely on the advantageous location to defend themselves and have been able to hold on until now. However, no one knows how long they can hold on.
At this moment, I don't know if it was the Rat King hiding in the rat team who discovered the group of people coming down the stairs.
The Rat King issued new instructions.
Many rats who were originally blocked by the outer layer of the team besieging the door and could only jump up and down in a crowd but couldn't kill them got new instructions.
The rats all stopped attacking the door of the power distribution room at the same time. Instead, they stayed there for a second or two, then suddenly turned their heads and stared at the stairs.
Although the mice's positions at this time were chaotic, their head-turning movements were exceptionally neat.
Under the flashlights of three mobile phones, hundreds of pairs of mouse eyes looked at everyone.
Such a scene gives people an inexplicable sense of weirdness and fear.
The new warriors, who had previously had their willpower stolen away, became even more panicked.
Although these people have more fighting talent than ordinary people and have performed fairly well in previous battles, and are no longer pure junior brothers, after all, they have never experienced specialized military training and are not in a league with real soldiers in terms of psychological quality.
Comparable to soldiers.
Sun Yingjun noticed the panic of his teammates around him, gritted his teeth, and planned to set an example to his comrades by taking the initiative to rush forward without caring about anything.
But at this moment, Zhou You was the first to move.
There were no blood-thrilling bugles or hysterical roars. Zhou You just kept silent and grabbed the nail gun with his left hand, held up the scalpel with his right hand, and did what a real military array arrow should do.
