Accompanied by the roar of the helicopter's huge blades.
Li Zhen leaned in front of the helicopter's half-open door, his fat face almost full of solemnity and sadness.
It’s not far from Fudu Base to Chongfeng County.
As a native of Tianfu, Li Zhen has even been there several times.
But never once did I go there under such circumstances...with such a purpose.
Accompanying his thoughts were the silences of countless soldiers and ability users in the cabin.
From the portable radio on one side, calls for help mixed with screams and curses continued to come out.
"Please help, please help... We are the National Defense Force..."
"Help, someone come and save us. We are trapped in the x county subway station. Woohoo, the passages on both sides have collapsed! We are buried alive!
”
"Notify all friendly forces not to go near the west of Jingping Road in County X. Our troops have run out of ammunition and food and are preparing to detonate tactical weapons...Long live the Federation!
”
"..."
As various sounds and messages with strong interference on the radio continue to spread.
Everyone in the cabin had the same expressions and gazes as Li Zhen.
Underneath the seemingly calm face, hidden is all the nameless deep anger.
Deep in the eyes, there is a light called sadness flickering.
At the end, Li Zhen sighed deeply.
Directly turn off the communication radio station on the communication soldier with the sound of "stuck".
"Major Li?"
Suddenly, he saw Li Zhen standing upright in the cabin and scanning his eyes.
Regardless of the team of ability users under his command, or a group of soldiers from the Special Air Service Regiment.
Everyone focused their attention.
Knowing that this is the nominal battlefield commander... he has something to say.
"Everyone..."
Facing the eyes of everyone with complex emotions.
Li Zhen first glanced at everyone's eyes in turn, before he even had time to speak.
The military terminals on almost everyone rang at the same time.
Then, it plays automatically as if synchronized.
"This is the second research base!
Support troops...your position...your position!"
"We, we can't stand it anymore!"
Accompanied by the sound of a man breathing heavily.
It seems to be confirmed that the commander here is Li Zhen.
A holographic image was even played directly from his terminal.
"I am Yang Yuan, the base officer of the Second Research Base!
”
As the middle-aged officer in the video opened his mouth to introduce himself.
It’s as if you know you don’t have much time.
In the image, Yang Yuan, whose body was stained with a lot of blood and dust, first paused for a moment as gunshots rang out everywhere.
Then he spoke with difficulty:
"These behemoths are the invaders' troop transports!"
"I don't know how to describe what they are, but... they must be sworn enemies with us humans!"
Saying that, just tap a few times on the terminal in your hand.
The video being played jumped, and a shaky battle record was created.
It seems to be a passage in front of the base.
As the dense barrage like a rain curtain passed through the passage, the figure that appeared on the opposite side... made everyone in the cabin stare at each other.
"Human, with a fish head?"
"Is this a legendary monster... or an alien??"
As many people took a breath, shock appeared in their eyes.
Yang Yuan, who seemed to have turned into a narrator, even said hastily:
"The armor on these invaders is so strong that small-caliber weapons are almost impossible to penetrate! The weapons in their hands are even more sharp!"
"Experts and important targets in the base have been hidden in the safe house, I..."
That’s it.
The gunshots coming from the communicator became denser again.
Then, the communication from the second research base stopped suddenly.
"What happened? Why was the communication disconnected?"
I saw that the communication terminal in my hand instantly lost the signal of the other party.
Li Zhen looked shocked.
The communications soldier of the Air Service Regiment beside him already said with an ugly expression:
"Major Li, it's interference!"
"These extraterrestrial beasts will release extremely powerful interference waves on their own. They should have entered their coverage area now...communication has been completely cut off."
As the signal soldier's voice fell.
From the corner of Li Zhen's eyes, he could already see in the distant sky... a figure that looked like a giant whale, swimming wantonly.
"This is..."
As the giant whale in the sky comes into view.
Li Zhen's 'Galaxy Power' was even more powerful, and he reacted instantly.
"These giant beasts are not aliens at all!
”
"This is actually...a monster??"
Feel the looming demonic power on the giant whale in the distance.
Li Zhen only had time to look at the other party from a distance, and a sense of crisis suddenly emerged in his heart.
"Not good!
”
Feel the mana aura that is rapidly condensing on the giant whale in the distance.
Li Zhen didn't even have time to remind the driver to be careful, and just watched a scorching light falling from the sky.
With a "boom", a nearby accompanying helicopter flew into the sky into a ball of fire.
"We've been discovered!"
"All helicopters land immediately...land quickly!
”
With wide-eyed roar.
The pilot in the cabin ahead seemed to know that the situation was urgent.
As the entire helicopter suddenly raised its head.
The huge black helicopter has rapidly slowed down and is pressing towards the ground.
At this time, Yu Susu, who was sitting next to Li Zhen, looked extremely confused, looked at his military terminal and murmured:
"Captain, we are still thirty kilometers away from our destination!"
"What if we land here?"
"..."
"We have no choice!"
Face the threat of death from the searing rays of the giant whale in the sky.
Li Zhen, who was originally anxious and a little frightened, suddenly became calmer.
As the first batch of ability users in the capital.
Ever since he joined the Secret Service, he has been working under the ‘twisted witch’.
Death may be a frightening unknown to others.
But for Li Zhen...
In training alone, he had at least hundreds of near-death experiences.
Several times, I almost failed to save him.
My mood instantly became calmer.
Li Zhen looked at the approaching road below and said in a calm tone:
"The flying speed of the helicopter cannot escape the light attack of the giant beast in the sky!"
"Now that it has discovered us, if it doesn't land... we will all be shot down sooner or later!"
The words have not yet been spoken here.
The sky has changed its direction, and the giant whale cruising here has once again emitted the aura of mana that made Li Zhen's face change drastically.
"Turn left! Turn left!
”
Feeling the breath of death pouring out of my heart.
Li Zhen couldn't even wait for the driver to react.
As soon as the mana on his body moved, he pressed the joystick to the left.
Then, the helicopter, which was descending smoothly, seemed to tilt instantly and fell directly to the left.
"No, we're out of control!
”
Accompanied by the driver's trembling exclamations.
An almost hair-curling orange-red beam, already carrying a billowing heat wave, directly passed by the helicopter that was out of control.
There was no sound, and one-third of the entire tail of the helicopter was instantly missing.
At this time, the driver's heartbreaking scream sounded again.
"The tail rotor is damaged! We are going to crash!"
"Everyone catch..."
Even the words "Hold on" were too late to come out.
The helicopter has hit the ground heavily with a fierce friction sound of "boom, boom, boom".
As many people kept bumping and flying back and forth in the cabin.
Even with Li Zhen's current strength, he felt that his mind was blank.
What brought him to his senses was the loud voice of the air service officer beside him calling forward.
"Major Li! Major Li!"
Just when I roared a few times in front of me, I even considered giving Li Zhen a big mouth.
The latter reacted in a flash.
"Major Li, the plane is going to explode!"
"You guys leave quickly!
”
Accompanied by an urging voice speaking very fast forward.
Li Zhen took a deep breath and didn't even need to take a look.
The chubby figure instantly turned into a phantom, throwing the figures who had fallen everywhere in the cabin, whose life or death was unknown, one by one.
At the end, I mentioned him to the stunned eyes around me and jumped directly outside.
Everything seems to happen in an instant.
When Li Zhen carried his strong body forward and landed on the soft grass more than ten meters away.
Where the helicopter crashed just now, there was another violent explosion.
Although the explosion didn't look big, the previously extremely spacious cabin had been completely swallowed up by the sea of flames.
"Huh...huh..."
At this time, I looked at the burning wreckage of the helicopter in the distance.
Li Zhen just had time to take a few deep breaths.
Looking at the miserable people nearby, he said:
"How many people do we have left? How are the other crews doing?"
"..."
"We..."
There was a look on his face that looked like he was crying but not crying.
Yu Susu, who seemed to have been hit hard on the forehead and had a large swelling, said with some tears:
"Four people in our team were thrown out of the plane just now, and two were seriously injured! Apart from us...the other helicopters were all hit by the beast's beam."
"..."
Listen to Yu Susu's movements.
Li Zhen's heart sank, and his eyes instantly turned to Xiang Qian.
"You asked us?"
Unlike Yu Susu, who was extremely emotionally unstable, Qianqian showed a wry smile on his face.
He shook his head directly and said:
"Twenty-two people, five died on the spot."
"I won't talk about the injured. Those who can continue to fight... I'm afraid there are less than ten people left."
"..."
"What??"
His eyes glanced at the group of injured people lying on the ground, twisted and twisted.
Li Zhen's breath suddenly stagnated, and he was about to speak.
In the woods not far away, there was some movement.
Then, Li Zhen's ears... unexpectedly heard a very familiar girl's voice.
"Li Zhen? Why are you here??"
"..."
"What??"
I suddenly heard a voice in my ear.
Li Zhen trembled all over, but just turned his head.
I saw a graceful figure just like him, wearing an ability user combat uniform.
It was Chen Jixing who had entered the 'Daqian Cangbing Arsenal' with him before.
"Chen, Master Chen!
”
He looked back and forth at Chen Jixing to make sure that he had all the parts.
Li Zhen saw many ability users and soldiers wearing combat uniforms walking out of the woods.
All in all, there were hundreds of people.
"Look what I do?"
It seems that he is very happy to meet Li Zhen here.
Chen Jixing's pretty face first showed a smile, then he looked at the group of injured people around him and sighed:
"Just now, the monsters in the sky opened fire on the ground. Was it you who hit them?"
"This area has been sealed off, and any aircraft... will be hit with precision by that beast."
As he spoke, he looked directly at Li Zhendao:
"Have you also been tasked with rescuing the second research base?"
"How many useful people are there now? Let's join forces... and continue the mission!"
……
……
Faced with Chen Jixing's invitation, Li Zhen couldn't think of a reason to refuse, both emotionally and rationally.
In terms of personal relationship, although he and Chen Jixing were not childhood sweethearts.
However, the relationship between Zhizhou Guan and Siji Guan, both of whom were born, is very good.
Even though Zhou Guan has declined to only three people now, they still move around frequently every year.
What's more, in the Death Sand Sea, the two of them had a life-long friendship.
As Li Zhen ordered all the personnel under his command who were still able to fight, they joined Chen Jixing's team.
The two of them led the team towards the 'Second Research Base' in Chongfeng County while reminiscing about old times.
"You said that your team was also attacked by monsters in the sky and almost all were wiped out?"
On one side and with its rapid speed, it quickly shuttles through the dense forest with easy roads.
Li Zhen looked at Chen Jixing, who had a look of sadness on his face, and couldn't help but glance behind him.
At this time, they were behind, but there were hundreds of people following them.
"You mean them?"
As if the sadness in his heart had been dispelled a little, Chen Jixing brushed his short hair on his forehead and sighed:
"Some of them are remnants of the nearby Federal Defense Forces, and some are survivors of other support units."
"I met him along the way and was temporarily incorporated into the rescue team."
Following Chen Jixing’s explanation.
Li Zhen sighed inwardly, knowing that what she said was true.
How could it be possible for only his team to rescue the Second Research Base?
There are probably countless rescue teams in all directions.
"But how many people can reach their destination alive?"
Thinking of the helicopters that turned into fireballs and the federal soldiers on them.
Li Zhen sighed in his heart and was about to speak again.
Chen Jixing beside him suddenly gritted his teeth and whispered:
"Li Zhen, you are stronger than me."
"If you really can't do anything, don't worry about the mission...the most important thing is to protect yourself!"
"..."
"What?"
I was shocked to hear Chen Jixing say this.
Li Zhen's eyes were stunned and he instinctively turned his head.
As far as the eye can see, Chen Jixing's pretty face, which was originally very comfortable, is now filled with solemnity.
"To tell you the truth, my mission and yours are...different."
"If something goes wrong..."
Staring at Li Zhen and shaking his head gently.
Chen Jixing did not continue what he said next.
But Li Zhen, opposite her, already understood what she meant.
There was even more surprise and uncertainty in his eyes.
"You understand?"
Seeing Li Zhen suddenly showing surprise and suspicion.
Chen Jixing showed a helpless smile and sighed:
"The experts and tools of the Second Research Base cannot fall into the hands of those monsters from outside the world."
