Eye of the Wasteland

Chapter 299 Investigation News
When the sunlight shone into the room through the gap in the curtains, Wu Yunhao woke up slowly.

At the same time, feeling his movement, Chen Xiaojia in her arms muttered softly, then turned over gently.

Seeing that the beautiful woman in his arms was still sleeping soundly, Wu Yunhao didn't bother to wake her up, so he quietly retracted the arm that was resting on her, and then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

After going to the bathroom to wash up briefly, Wu Yunhao heard someone knocking on his door lightly.

When Wu Yunhao opened the door, Ding Shiyang stood outside the door smiling.

"Did you have a good rest last night?"

Greeting Wu Yunhao with a smile, Ding Shiyang then said softly: "The City Lord's Mansion let us go there, saying that there is something wrong with the scout team sent to Jingdong City to monitor."

Although Ding Shiyang tried his best to make his tone not sound so heavy, his words still made Wu Yunhao frowned suddenly.

It is learned that Jingdong City has been captured by the Zerg, and a huge insect nest has been built in the dilapidated urban area.

While Fuyuan City rapidly expanded its guards throughout the winter and rapidly increased the production of various ordnance and equipment, it also did not relax its investigation of Jingdong City.

Fortunately, due to the inconvenient transportation in winter, the folks did not know the news from Jingdong City.

At the same time, under the official arrangement of Fuyuan City, the news of the accepted Jingdong City fleeing convoys was also limited to the survivor towns and homeless strongholds that accepted them.

It's just that Wu Yunhao can also guess that the news that he needs to be summoned to the City Lord's Mansion is probably not very good news.

So, Wu Yunhao nodded to Ding Shiyang, signaling him to wait for him for a while.

After returning to the room and talking to Chen Xiaojia, Wu Yunhao put on a thick winter coat, followed Ding Shiyang to the downstairs, got into the waiting jeep and headed for the City Lord's Mansion.

When Wu Yunhao and Ding Shiyang walked into the meeting room of the City Lord's Mansion, Feng Wenyan, Ding Jiayi, and Xu Zhiyong led many Wasteland Alliance officials were already waiting in the meeting room.

Raising his hand to signal Wu Yunhao and Ding Shiyang to sit down quickly, Feng Wenyan said: "Okay, since everyone is here, let's take a look at the latest news that the scouting team sent back for us."

As he spoke, Feng Wenyan picked up the remote control he had placed on the table beside him, and then turned on the projector placed on the conference table.

After the waiting staff turned off the lights for the conference room, the projector directly projected a clear picture onto the projection screen that had already been hung in the conference room.

Judging from the shooting angle and the footage, this should be taken by the scouting team outside Jingdong City through a mobile phone.

Nowadays, although the mobile phone in the civilized era has lost most of its functions, it is a good choice to use it as a convenient camera and video camera and a file transfer device.

In the picture taken by the mobile phone, the entire Jingdong City has long been covered by the haze formed by the huge smoke column spewing out from the insect nest.

Compared with the clear sky in winter, the entire Jingdong City is like an unlucky city shrouded in weird weather, so dark that people have countless weird guesses about it.

At the same time, through some buildings that can be barely identified in the haze, it can be found that the insect nest is still growing very vigorously, and has covered many original urban areas in Jingdong City.

Those high-rise buildings are now wrapped in those strange fleshy things, even the investigation team can see those buildings with huge tumors and tentacles from a long distance.

Moreover, in the hazy sky, some figures can be seen in the air, flapping their wings and flying fast.

It's just because the speed is too fast, and the location of the investigation team is too far away from Jingdong City.

In addition, the light in the city is too dim, so it is impossible to clearly capture the clear appearance of those flying figures.

Apart from the fact that the insect nest is rapidly engulfing the entire Jingdong City, there is nothing special about this video.

It's just that the entire Jingdong City is being quickly swallowed by the insect nest in the video alone. This scene is enough to cast a cloud of haze on the hearts of everyone present when the insects are approaching again.

Seeing the unsightly expressions on the faces of everyone present, Feng Wenyan raised the remote control in his hand and continued to operate the projector.

After completing the video playback, the projector quickly played the pictures taken by the reconnaissance team on the projection screen one after another.

Most of these photos were taken by the reconnaissance team quietly approaching the periphery of Fuyuan City at night, using the night camera function of the mobile phone.

Most of these photos are Zerg soldiers in Jingdong City, and you can clearly see those Zerg soldiers who are thriving like a bug nest.

A sword bug with a taller and stronger body and a more slender bone blade.

Corrosion bugs whose heads seem to be a circle larger than ordinary ones of the same kind.

Huge, five or six stories high, with thick bone armor, Zerg soldiers who are currently named Tank Bugs.

There are also new Zerg soldiers with potbellies that look like giant beetles.

In addition, what made everyone present feel a little weird was that some weird humanoid creatures began to appear in the subsequent photos.

Judging from the clothing fragments and some human characteristics left on these humanoid creatures, they should have been residents of Jingdong City.

It's just that now their heads are attracted by a Zerg like a huge meat ball, and it is this meat ball-like parasite that controls their actions.

The most striking thing is that although these humans parasitized by the Zerg are staggering in stature, many of them are holding pistols or even submachine guns and assault rifles in their hands.

After playing these photos one after another, Feng Wenyan looked around at the expressions of everyone present.

Then, he said slowly, "Today, the reason why I called everyone here is because the scouting team sent me some interesting videos and pictures."

"Through these videos and pictures, we can find that Jingdong City's Zerg seems to be thriving at a speed far beyond our expectations during this time."

"However, according to the report of the reconnaissance team, they saw at least dozens of patrols consisting of dozens of Zerg and some parasitic humans."

"That is to say, the Zerg in Jingdong City currently has at least the defense scale of tens of thousands of Zerg soldiers in terms of city defense forces."

"As for the total strength of these damn Zerg, we can't estimate yet."

Having said that, Feng Wenyan tapped his hand on the table in the conference room: "The Zerg is growing too fast."

"And according to the news discovered by the scouting team, these damn bugs are no longer content to hide in Jingdong City."

"I think there's a good chance we'll be at war with these damn bugs after winter is over."
