Chapter 417 The number of people who have fallen

Ling Cong scratched his head and said with a smile, "It's nothing serious."

"It's just that there is a mission that is not very dangerous recently. I just thought that Wan Bai's strength is pretty good now, and I want to bring her along as well, so that I can increase my experience and have more actual combat experience."

"However, since Wan Bai is not here, let's forget it this time, and come to her next time I have a chance."

"Then, goodbye, Aunt Bai." Ling Cong didn't plan to stay for long, after all, he had to leave after a while.

Bai Yuan: "Hey, okay, goodbye."

……

"Huh? Brother, didn't you say to call Wan Bai?" Ling Xuanwei looked at Ling Cong who came back alone and asked with some doubts, "Did he agree?"

"No, Wan Bai is not in the base." Ling Cong replied, "I don't know what she is doing? Even Aunt Bai doesn't know."

"..." Ling Xuanwei examined Ling Cong's expression.

Ling Cong: "?"

"Brother, to be honest, have you fallen in love with him?" Ling Xuanwei guessed.

"!" Ling Cong stared at Ling Xuanwei with enlarged eyes and said, "Hey, Xiaowei, you can't spread rumors."

"I just want to take care of an excellent seedling," Ling Cong added, "Wanbai's strength is now a fourth-level ability user, and he is only one level behind you."

"Besides, the number of psychic powers in the entire base is simply a handful, and she can be regarded as the mainstay of the base in the future."

"Really?" Ling Xuanwei confirmed.

"No." Ling Cong nodded seriously.

"Okay." Ling Xuanwei gave up asking, "Hurry up and pack up your things, and you'll be ready to go in a while, and your dad wants to tell you something, this time you are leading the team."

When it came to the task, Ling Cong complained a little speechlessly: "By the way, how many people are missing in Minglei base, can't they solve it by themselves? Why do you need our help?"

This time, Minglei Base issued a request for help to the other three major bases. However, in general, Shuguang couldn't spare any extra manpower, so it was basically Cangqiong and Longwei bases.

"I don't know, but after all, it was the head of Minglei North District who personally notified, at least face is still to be given." Ling Xuanwei guessed.

However, combined with the memories of the previous life, Ling Xuanwei always felt that things were not so simple this time.

"Moreover, it's not just because of the disappearance, we also have to escort the materials there."

Mineral resources are abundant near the Minglei base, but because the winter is too cold, food has to be purchased from other bases every winter.

Ling Cong nodded: "That's true."

……

The meeting room in the east area of ​​Cangqing Base.

"For this mission, the base is handed over to our Eastern District, and the mission is not very dangerous." Cheng Jun said, "The top [-] who will join the special training this time will also go with them. It can be regarded as an experience."

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Jun once again raised a few points for attention, and then let everyone leave.

Everyone had almost left, but Han Qichuan still stayed in the meeting room, looking at Cheng Jun with displeasure.

"What else do you need?" Cheng Jun looked at Han Qichuan with some doubts.

Han Qichuan asked: "How long will this operation last?"

Cheng Jun replied: "A conservative estimate is about seven days. Of course, the specific situation depends on your operational efficiency."

Han Qichuan frowned slightly after hearing this: "I refuse to participate in this operation."

Cheng Jun raised his eyebrows: "The reason?"

Han Qichuan was silent for a while, and then confide a few words: "I don't want to go."

"..." Cheng Jun was speechless for a while and directly dismissed it, "No, it's not a question of whether you want to go or not. For this mission, General Yu Ning called you to participate in the execution of this mission."

After hearing this, Han Qichuan just stared at Cheng Jun silently for a few seconds, as if he understood that no matter what, there was no way to quit this mission, so he turned and left without saying anything more.

Cheng Jun looked at Han Qichuan's back and sighed, "This guy..."

"Why can't you think about it?"

"This kind of task that can earn work points and is not very dangerous is something that others may not necessarily be able to grab."

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that Yu Ning wanted to promote Han Qichuan this time, and personally named Han Qichuan and others, he might not have been able to go.

Therefore, Cheng Jun really couldn't understand Han Qichuan's thoughts.

Just when he gave up on figuring out what was the reason, Cheng Jun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked about the duration of a mission before thinking of Han Qichuan.

"Isn't it because after he left, he couldn't go back to Mize Forest at night and couldn't see Boss Yun?"

There was a hint of speechlessness in Cheng Jun's surprised tone, thinking carefully, this is really something Han Qichuan can do.

……

Xia Lan is a fourth-level wood-type supernatural being. Even though she was chased by those mutants before, she has little physical strength left.

But as a veteran figure who contributed to the establishment of Minglei Base in the early days, in this state of walking and repairing, it is not something that a small number of low-level zombies can touch porcelain.

It was impossible for them not to encounter a single zombie along the way, but the number was not large, and the level was not high enough. Xia Lan was able to move with ease while protecting the district chief.

When Yun You caught up with them, Xia Lan happened to have a vine directly pierced through the head of a zombie not far away, rolled up the crystal nucleus and retracted it neatly.

End the battle in the shortest time with the least amount of stamina.

After the two parties met, they didn't stop too much, and went straight to Yunyou's branch.

At the same time, Yunyou didn't forget to keep looking for detailed information on the way, saving these two people was considered to have intervened in this matter, and she wanted to know the whole picture of the whole incident.

Because Han Bin once said in Tianmou that although Boss Yun has a mysterious origin and unknown purpose, he can give him some trust.

Xia Lan briefly analyzed the pros and cons, and then informed Yun You of more detailed information, and the district chief at the side added it on her behalf, and the whole picture of the whole incident emerged.

The number of residents in the slum area of ​​Minglei Base is always erratic, but it is generally showing a downward trend.

This is not a strange phenomenon. In the era of the end of the world, it is inevitable that there will be people who will be eliminated in the slums. Coupled with the high latitude of Minglei's base, this number will increase by leaps and bounds in winter.

However, in recent months, rumors of monsters catching people have emerged in the slums.

At first, Han Bin also thought it was a circulating story, but he didn't discover the problem until he asked someone to check the number of people in the area again.

The number of people who disappeared has increased exponentially, and among these disappeared people, most of them are teenagers over ten years old and adults under 40 years old.

Tianmu began to investigate this matter.

Initially, it was found that the management personnel in the northern area of ​​Minglei base had changed in recent months.
