The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.
Chapter 346 Geological Changes
Dajing, Base No. 2.
The soldiers hiding in the dark watchtower are concentrating on scanning the surrounding weirdness through the weird energy detector. According to the city defense team, since the awakening of the seventh-level weirdness, the weirdness in the whole city has become active, and the No. 3 defense line has been lost. Once the weirdness goes one step further, the No. 1 base will be completely doomed.
Originally, Defense Line No. 3 had been abandoned, but the emergence of Base No. 2 made this defense line be used again. The city defense team sent out elite soldiers to patrol in shifts around the clock to monitor the strangeness of the entire block.
At this time, a soldier noticed smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and a convoy followed by densely packed parasites and weird things was heading towards Base No. 2.
"They're back, Captain Fang and the others are back!" The soldier immediately picked up the communicator to report to the command camp and pressed the alert button at the same time.
It wasn't just Fang Mingyue's convoy that came back, but also the weird things and parasites in the entire block.
Although the command knew that such a situation would happen before Fang Mingyue led the team to receive the resources, because even if the transport vehicle had undergone many improvements, its movement would definitely attract the attention of the surrounding monsters and the parasites, but when they saw the densely packed group of monsters like ants, the soldiers on the sentry tower were also frightened.
Fortunately, the new parliament had already arranged for support, and after receiving the sentry's alarm signal, it immediately launched an emergency response plan.
Deng Yuqi was on standby at Base No. 2. After receiving the signal, he immediately connected to the surveillance screen, picked up the communicator and said, "After the convoy enters the blockade area, start the 10-1 interception procedures in 3 seconds to intercept the weird and parasitic creatures behind outside the blockade area."
The interception program that Deng Yuqi mentioned is a program set up by the research department using the abandoned defense facilities of Line 3 and the latest type of weird defense devices.
After Fang Mingyue's convoy entered the blockade zone, the No. 1 interception program was activated, and immediately a loud "boom" was heard. A two-meter-thick metal wall slowly rose from the ground of the block, and it was four or five meters high. Although this height is insignificant compared to some level 3 monsters, it can keep the largest number of low-level monsters and parasites out of the blockade zone.
Since the metal defense wall did not rise very quickly, some of the monsters were pushed up, and some even passed over the defense wall.
Although the three-meter-thick defense wall seems strong, it is actually immediately twisted and deformed, and even has gaps when it encounters those four or five-meter-high third-order monsters.
But this was only the first step in the defense process. After the defense wall was broken, a thick black mist of strange energy immediately emanated from inside.
This is the high-level weird aura collected by the warriors of the exploration team who risked their lives to enter the seventh-level weird blockade zone. There is a strict level suppression between the weirdnesses. Unless it is a first-level weirdness or a low-level weirdness like the parasite that does not even have the instinct of fear, most of the second and third-level weirdnesses will be suppressed by the weirdness of the high-level weirdness.
As expected, after the strange black fog appeared, some third-level monsters immediately stopped and rushed in the opposite direction, or rushed into the nearby ruins and hid.
But this level suppression is not absolute. Since Fang Mingyue's team brought back too many monsters, a large number of them still broke through the defense line.
At this time, the No. 2 defense program was activated, including the collapsed ground, power grid, strange energy blasting bombs, etc. The sound of explosions resounded throughout the entire block in an instant.
Finally, it was the defense program No. 3. The hatch of the bunker hidden in the surrounding ruins opened, and the monsters that had been trained by the research institute and the shelter immediately escaped and fled in the opposite direction of the shelter.
They exuded a delicious strange energy, which immediately attracted a large number of weird people. At this time, the three groups of soldiers who had been on guard around them launched an attack.
The city defense team held several key defense lines, while the exploration team and the ghost hunting team, who were more adept at fighting against ghosts, rushed to the front line.
After Fang Mingyue commanded the convoy into the underground passage of Base No. 2, he immediately led the team to the front line for support. This was the most intense defensive battle the shelter had experienced since its construction.
The most scarce thing at the end of the world is resources, and food is the most scarce of them. Everyone knows that the resources Fang Mingyue brought back can at least support the people in the shelter for one or two months, so they all risked their lives to stop the strange attack.
Although one or two months is not a long time, the shelter is already planning to evacuate Dajing, and this batch of resources is the key to whether they can survive and reach the next habitable place.
The battle lasted for nearly two hours, and nearly 30% of the soldiers of the Third Regiment were killed or wounded. They finally managed to stabilize the offensive and keep the weirdness outside the blockade area.
Fang Mingyue's combat uniform was soaked in blood, and when he walked into the command center, he left a trail of blood on the floor.
"Reporting to Captain Deng, the resources we brought back this time include not only a large amount of food, but also various weapons and ammunition." Fang Mingyue reported all the harvest this time. According to the preliminary estimate of the Logistics Department, if these foods are only used for consumption at Base No. 2, they can last at least three and a half months.
"Well done!" After Deng Yuqi praised for a few words, he began to ask about Fang Mingyue's injuries and the details of the operation.
When Fang Mingyue heard that Shen Ge stayed behind to cover their retreat and that this was how their team was able to escape the blockade area from the high-level weird pursuit, he suddenly became thoughtful.
In fact, Deng Yuqi never understood why Shen Ge spared no effort to help them. Even when he heard that he came from another world and that there were people like them in that world and they were his comrades-in-arms, he still doubted Shen Ge's "motives".
The reason is simple. The saying "love someone and love his dog" can be used to add icing on the cake, but in a situation like this where someone is willing to risk his life to help, it is hard not to be suspicious.
But no matter what, Shen Ge's contribution to the shelter so far is obvious to all, and he even helped the shelter to eradicate the cancer of the New God Cult.
Although Shen Ge's plan to replace the New God Cult as a charlatan and let the New Parliament control the civilians in the shelter both physically and spiritually failed, it still set a good example for the New Parliament.
"Captain Deng, do you think... we should organize a team to go back to the blockade area to search for Shen Ge's whereabouts?" Fang Mingyue asked.
The reason why her tone was a little tangled was not because she was afraid of high-level weirdness, but because she had a clear understanding of her own strength after several cooperations with Shen Ge. If she formed a search team and went back, she might not be able to help Shen Ge at all, and would hinder him again. When she thought of this, Fang Mingyue suddenly became a little depressed. This was the first time she felt that her strength was so weak. As a captain, she didn't help at all in several operations, and it was all thanks to Shen Ge that she could escape from danger.
When Deng Yuqi was struggling over whether to send someone to support Shen Ge, a soldier ran into the headquarters and said, "Captain Deng, Captain Tu of the Ghost Hunters who went to carry out the investigation mission sent back a video. When the senator contacted us, Captain Liu was suppressing the riot at Base No. 1. We couldn't contact him. Do you think we should go to the parliament to report?"
Strictly speaking, Liu Jiayi, Deng Yuqi and other veterans of the three groups are also members of the new parliament, so any new decisions of the parliament must be approved by their opinions.
The biggest difference between the new parliament and the old parliament is that the cadres of the Third Regiment will not be directly dispatched by the new parliament. This is also to prevent the situation of Base No. 1 from happening again.
Moreover, during the combat period of the Third Regiment, the new parliament must not interfere with their combat operations. This is a critical moment for Base No. 2, so Deng Yuqi has the right to refuse to attend the meeting.
"Captain Tu?" Deng Yuqi naturally knew Tu Dou Bi. He was one of the leaders of the main exploration teams for several evacuation points this time.
Right now, there are problems with bases 1 and 2, and defense line 3 is also in danger. In addition, there is a level monster in the blockade area that is about to complete a breakthrough to level . The relocation of the shelter is imminent, and Deng Yuqi has to handle this matter with caution.
"Where are they?" Deng Yuqi asked.
The soldier replied: "Conference Room 3-2."
"I'll be there now." After saying that, Deng Yuqi looked at Fang Mingyue and asked her to go back and rest and take care of her wounds. She would send someone to deal with Shen Ge's matter.
Although Fang Mingyue really wanted to say that given Shen Ge's strength, they should not cause trouble, but she was still worried about Shen Ge's safety. She opened her mouth, but finally just nodded.
When Deng Yuqi arrived at the meeting room of the new parliament, he found that the number of cadres summoned from various regiments was much greater than he had imagined. Even several senior researchers from the research department who had been obsessed with weird research in the laboratory for many years appeared in the meeting room. This was enough to show that the information sent back by Tu Dou Pi this time must have great research value.
After Deng Yuqi took her seat, an assistant to the legislator placed the information in front of her and gave a brief introduction to the situation of the meeting.
Tu Doupi went to the north. Logically, according to the current season, the north should have been covered with ice and snow. However, when he entered the blockade area of Sandeshen City, what he saw was not ice and snow, but a primeval forest.
"The video sent back by Captain Tu was interfered with and some images were missing. After a day and a night of emergency repairs, my colleagues in the research department finally restored the image. Please look at the screen." After a researcher stood up to debug the instrument, he played a very blurry video on the projector.
As the picture gradually becomes clearer, we can see a group of soldiers trying to climb up a mountain that looks like a primeval forest.
The leader was the fully armed Tu Dou Bi. Before them, an exploration team had come here to explore. After receiving the signal, they rushed to support.
After climbing to the camp halfway up the mountain and reuniting with the original garrison team, the recorder turned on the recorder and began recording the conversation, and then tried to transmit the information back to headquarters.
The leader of the exploration team who came first was named Cai Hua, a senior leader of the exploration team appointed by Deng Yuqi. He extended his hand to Tu Doupi and said, "Hello, I am Cai Hua from the exploration team, responsible for the exploration of the **** area this time. The exploration team sent me to lead the team because I grew up in Sanshen City and I am very familiar with this place. But this operation made me doubt my childhood memories. It's not just the weather that has changed here, even the terrain has changed dramatically."
Cai Hua spread out a map on the conference table and pointed to the route from Dajing to Sanshen City. He said, "Since this evacuation is of great importance and time is of the essence, we chose the route that is most suitable for tanks to pass through. But you also found out when you came here that the mountain roads here are difficult to walk on, and the abundance of plants is comparable to that of primitive forests like tropical rainforests."
"But the problem is not with the flourishing plants, but... there are no 'mountains' on this route!"
Tu Dou Pi was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes turned to the map that Cai Hua took out. According to the map, there were very few hills in this area, let alone mountains.
After entering the mountainous area, his team could clearly feel how steep the mountain was. Even if the strange characteristics caused geological changes, it would be impossible for a big mountain to appear.
Cai Hua continued, "After we set up a temporary camp here, we conducted a comprehensive survey of the surrounding area and found that the plants here grow very fast. Although there are many plants that I have never seen before, there are also many plants that we are familiar with and can eat."
"The reason why I listed this place as a habitable area is because the plant resources here are very rich, and the land is fertile. If we can build a defense line to keep the weirdness under the mountain, then this place will be a paradise."
Tu Dou Pi asked in confusion: "If that's the case, why don't we just report to the headquarters and find the best evacuation point, and then report the data here and arrange for evacuation? Why do we need to ask for support?"
Cai Hua lit a cigarette, his expression becoming serious: "Because we found a passage leading to the interior of the mountain. A strong strange energy reaction was detected in this passage. The deputy captain and several team members who entered the cave for reconnaissance disappeared. I tried to enter the cave to look for them, but the situation inside was very complicated. Without the support of path-finding equipment, I dare not go deep rashly. I can only ask for help from the headquarters."
Upon hearing this, Tu Dou Bi immediately understood what Cai Hua meant. This suddenly appeared mountain had lush vegetation, rich resources, and fertile land. It was indeed suitable for building a base for survival in the doomsday. However, if there were strange hidden caves on the mountain, if they were not dealt with, it would be equivalent to building a base on a time bomb. No one knew when it would explode, perhaps in peacetime, or perhaps in the face of a strange attack.
The former is not bad, just need to arrange personnel to be on guard 24 hours a day, but if it is the latter, when the combatants are fighting with the monsters on the front line, suddenly a large number of monsters appear in the cave, and they are attacked from both sides, and everyone may be killed here.
Therefore, Cai Hua had to be cautious and sought support from the Ghost Hunting Group, intending to let them go into the cave with him to search and confirm whether it was safe.
"Apart from the cave that has strange reactions, how many strange things are there in this mountain?" Tu Dou Bi asked.
Cai Hua said in a deep voice: "There is not even one. This is what I am most worried about. Since the outbreak of the doomsday, there is almost no place in the world without strange activities. And here, let alone high-level weirdness, even low-level weirdness and a parasite are not seen. This itself is a big problem!" (End of this chapter)
