After a while, the communicator was connected.

"Hello." There was a deep male voice on the other end of the link.

"B word 1874, I have important information to report to the country. The intelligence level is A. It is extremely urgent. I need at least a colonel to answer the call. Please transfer it immediately." Zhang Xi spoke quickly. As an officer of the Earth Defense Force, In fact, he has dual military status. After all, the military units of the Human United Defense Command (HUDC) are originally selected and established by various countries.

Of course, this situation is not recognized in theory. After all, the purpose of the Earth Defense Force is to protect the human race. Its soldiers were separated from the domestic military establishment as soon as they joined the Earth Defense Force. relation.

But in fact, as a school official, he certainly has a way to directly contact the country. Although under normal circumstances, he would not use it, but at this moment, he directly thought of seeking support from the country.

"Okay, B number 1874, I will transfer you immediately, please wait." This communication link is manned 24 hours a day. The person on the other side obviously knows the importance and the communication implications of linking in this tone so late. I didn’t say much about what I was talking about and started reporting directly.

While waiting, Zhang Chengxi anxiously raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch.

"Hello, hello, B number 1874, my rank is colonel staff officer, you can call me Chang Geng." About a minute later, when Zhang Xi became more and more anxious, a calm but serious man came over the phone. Alto.

Zhang Chengxi knew that the link in his hands was in charge of the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau. If the man opposite Chang Geng was really a colonel staff officer, then he would most likely be at the level of deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau. High official.

"Hello, Chief Chang Geng, let me declare in advance that everything I say next is true and is happening..."

.........................................................

.....................

"I will send some photos from my diary next to prove the credibility of my information. I know it may be unbelievable, but please believe what I say!"

Zhang Chengxi described everything as fast as he could, and then, without waiting for the other party to answer, he gave himself a shock with a stun machine...

"Crackling..."

There was a muffled groan, which made Chang Geng on the opposite side think that something happened to him, and he hurriedly asked: "Yizi 1874, what happened to you, are you okay?"

"It's nothing, the time is coming soon, I have to keep myself awake, so I give myself a break, don't worry..." Zhang Xi took a breath, but said in as light a tone as possible.

The person on the other side of the communicator was silent for a moment. Just when Zhang Xi thought that the other person might ask various questions to question him, and even thought about how to further gain his trust, the person on the other side of the communicator was obviously much more receptive than he imagined: "The word B 1874. Indeed, what you said is very serious and involved, and has exceeded the scope of my rank and authority. However, I personally choose to believe it, and I will report it immediately to gain support from higher levels. I need The diary photos you mentioned will be used to prove the authenticity of the incident. At the same time, we will immediately start confirming the personnel list of the Suifenhe. Now, I want to hear what you currently need our cooperation with?"

"The photos of the diary have begun to be transmitted. Interstellar transmission takes a certain amount of time. I think you will receive the evidence in a few minutes. As for the list of personnel, I think you should have your own channel." Zhang Xi knew that he was now involved The problem is not a simple one, but if you are not careful, it will lead to Dazhao being involved in a huge scandal involving the Human Joint Defense Command. After all, strictly speaking, his behavior at this time absolutely violates the relevant international regulations. Treaty!

And what he will do next is no different from a mutiny!

However, he had to do this, because if his guess was correct, then everything was extremely urgent!

While thinking about it, Zhang Chengxi organized his words: "The matter is urgent because it involves mind control, an ability I have never heard of, as well as unknown supernatural beings. So I have reason to suspect that Major General Schwartz may have something wrong. If this is the case, then if he calls all the school officials in Fengsui Fort for a meeting now, it may cause an extremely bad chain reaction."

Chapter 5 The Real Soldier

"I suggest that the empire immediately reports this incident to the United Human Defense Command and dispatches a fleet to block all military and civilian spacecraft from Beacon Castle and its surrounding asteroid belt, regardless of the reason."

"Until the incident is resolved, no aircraft will be allowed to enter the core area of ​​the solar system. If there is one that refuses to obey the control, please destroy it immediately!"

Due to the rise of interstellar development, some large mining companies now have several mining sites in the asteroid belt around Fengsui Castle. Therefore, there are often some civilian mining and transport spacecrafts traveling between Fengsui Castle, the earth and the moon.Zhang Chengxi's suggestion was equivalent to including these spacecrafts under control. At the same time, he also lost the possibility of returning to Earth before the incident was resolved.

Chang Geng, who was on the opposite side, had obviously thought of the subtext of Zhang Xi's request. He did not ask for his return and escape from the dangerous place, but asked for himself to be included in the quarantine.

This behavior obviously made Chang Geng more fond of him, and his tone became gentler: "I've written it down, is there anything else you need?"

"There are two battalions of orbital airborne troops stationed in Fengsui Fort, namely the 206th and 208th Rapid Reaction Force. I hope that Major Wang Hanjun, the commander of the 206th Rapid Reaction Force, can cooperate with me. In this regard, I need domestic coordination. "

"Do you know what this means?" The tone on the other end of the communicator turned serious.

"I know." Zhang Cheng Xi said calmly: "Without an order from my superiors, this will be regarded as a mutiny, and I will be sent to a military court. Even if my guess is later proven to be reasonable, I will be transferred from my post. This may be the end of my career.”

"Then you still ask for this?"

"You have fulfilled your obligation to remind us. Perhaps, we can arrange a spacecraft to allow you to evacuate first. The country will explain this to the Human Joint Defense Command."

Zhang Chengxi was silent for a moment. He knew that the other party might still be tempted, but if he agreed to this proposal, there was a high probability that it would really be possible in the country.

Although Fengsuo Fort belongs to the Human Joint Defense Command, due to the influence of the empire, there are still a large number of officers stationed in Fengsui Fort. He wants to bypass the command system of Fengsui Fort and arrange for a small spacecraft to return to the earth. In his With cooperation, it is not difficult.

For him, this is obviously a safer option.

However, is this really what he should choose?

He once again thought of the words left in the diary of his classmate, Major Ge Huaiyuan, who had died in the line of duty——

I am a soldier and I have to fulfill my responsibilities!

He exhaled: "You should know that the Earth Defense Force has had one and only one strategic purpose since its formation."

"That is to carry out resolute and uncompromising resistance for the continuation of the race when humans encounter attacks from deep space."

"Even if the enemy is too powerful to be defeated..."

"I am a soldier of the Earth Defense Force, and I have to fulfill my responsibilities..."

There was silence on the other side of the communicator for a moment, and Chang Geng's tone became obviously solemn: "I understand. You are a real soldier. I will truthfully convey your suggestions. As for Major Wang Hanjun, I will immediately start arranging communication. This is not It’ll be too long.”

"As for the rest, we will organize as much support as possible. However, due to the distance between time and space, follow-up support will take a certain amount of time. Unfortunately, in a short period of time, you can only rely on yourself."

"If there is any follow-up progress, keep communicating at any time."

"I understand, then, bye." Zhang Xi was obviously relieved. This statement from the other side showed that the country was already prepared for this, so at least at the very least, he had achieved his goal.

The person on the other side of the communicator did not cut off contact immediately:

"If I can come back smoothly, I hope to buy you a drink. Finally, I wish you good luck."

Hanging up the communicator, Zhang Xi immediately switched to the base's internal communicator and dialed Major Wang Hanjun's communicator.

After a short blind tone, the communicator was connected, and Zhang Chengxi said directly: "I am Zhang Chengxi, Major Wang, where are I now?"

"I just received the order from the headquarters and am heading to the large conference room. As you know, our military camp is a bit far away. It will take some time for me to get here." On the other end of the communicator was a strong voice with a northern accent in the empire.

Hearing that Major Wang Hanjun had not arrived yet, Zhang Chengxi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, things had not developed to the worst yet.

"Major Wang, please return to the military camp immediately. I have evidence that Fengsuitao is in a serious crisis, and Major General Schwartz may have a problem." Zhang Chengxi said seriously.

"Major Zhang, do you know what you are talking about now?" The voice on the other side of the communicator that was still smiling just now turned cold and serious.

"I know exactly what I'm talking about and what it means, and I'm going to show you the evidence to your face."

"Major Zhang, this is a serious act of disobedience. I forgive you for not accepting your suggestion." Major Wang Hanjun's tone remained cold, without any intention of being accommodating.

"Major Wang, please be sure to wait. You will receive instructions from the country soon. Alternatively, you can directly seek confirmation from the country. Please believe that the situation is urgent and I am not joking!"

There was silence on the other side. Apparently, Zhang Xi's words made Major Wang Hanjun on the other side start to hesitate. As a soldier sent from the country, although he has theoretically been separated from the Jokhang Army, however, when the situation is serious enough, two decisions must be made. When choosing one, there is no way Wang Hanjun would betray his country.

"Major Zhang, do you know the nature of this matter? This is a mutiny!" In the communicator, Wang Hanjun's voice was no longer so cold, but lowered his voice.Obviously, Wang Hanjun was mistaken at this time. He most likely believed that there might be some problem with the domestic and human joint defense command...

"I know the meaning of this very well, I'm not kidding! Major Wang, I'm on my way here now, please be sure to wait for me in the office!"

"Okay, I will ask for confirmation from the country, and you can come here as soon as possible." Wang Hanjun did not say any threats. As a major, he naturally cannot be a fool. Although he doesn't know what Zhang Xi wants to do, there must be domestic reasons for this. Otherwise, he alone would not dare to do this anyway. After all, this is enough to ruin his reputation!

Turning off the communicator, Zhang Xi quickly went out and headed towards the rapid reaction force barracks.

561 Major Zhang Zhang, where are you going?

The camp of the rapid reaction force is not in the same location as the main airport building where Zhang Xi is currently located. It is located on the other side of the asteroid, and is connected by an orbital warehouse.The barracks is relatively close to the asteroid's energy core fusion reactor, so the initial consideration was probably to provide nearby support when problems arise.

After Zhang Chengxi left the conference room, he grabbed the handrails on both sides of the corridor and quickly headed towards the orbital warehouse. The orbital warehouse is located on the west side of the first floor of the building. He is currently located in the southeast corner of the second floor near the airport tower, with at least 3 minutes between them. He must hurry up the journey.

The effects of the drugs and pain were still continuing at this time. In Zhang Xi's field of vision, everything was shaking in fragments. This made him extremely uncomfortable, and his body's balance was also affected to a certain extent. After a period of time, He even felt like vomiting, but he understood that he had to overcome all this.

Although he did not look in the direction of the Suifenhe at this time, the feeling of being watched still accompanied him intermittently. This was an extremely special experience. However, he knew that the time left to him would most likely There is not much left, I must do it as soon as possible...

When he turned a staircase and came to the first floor, a voice suddenly came from the front: "Major Zhang, where are you going?"

Zhang Chengxi looked up and saw an officer wearing the rank of second lieutenant walking towards him not far away. The fragment in his eyes at this time was the normal field of vision mode, so everything around him looked normal. He knew the officer in front of him. He is an officer in charge of airport communications, a mixed-race man named Leo.

However, Lieutenant Leo's question made him instinctively feel that something was wrong, because this was not the way subordinates talked to superior officers. The army is a hierarchical organization, not to mention that there are several levels between the two. Under normal circumstances, Lieutenant Leo's reaction when seeing the colonel would be to stand at attention and salute, instead of asking him where he was going like now.

Zhang Chengxi was already on high alert at this time. Hearing this, he immediately stopped and scolded in a serious and unceremonious manner: "Second Lieutenant, this is not a question you should ask about."

However, after hearing such scolding, Lieutenant Leo did not make any panic move or explanation. Instead, he continued to speed up and walked in the direction of Zhang Xi. At the same time, he smiled and asked: "Major Zhang. , Mr. Schwartz has issued an order to summon all base officers above the school level to attend a meeting. Your current direction does not lead to the headquarters, right?"

Zhang Chengxi's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he felt more and more wrong. He ordered in a stern tone: "Second Lieutenant, don't overstep your status. Now, I order you to return to your post or dormitory!"

As a military base, most of the staff in Fengsui Fort have military positions, and the military management is naturally adopted. If there are no duty tasks, normal soldiers are required to strictly follow their work and rest schedules at night, except for mid-level and senior officers.The second lieutenant Leo in front of him is obviously not in the rank of mid-to-high-level officers, so theoretically, he should be in only two places now, that is, on duty or on the bed in the dormitory.

At the same time that Zhang Cheng Xi gave the order, the scene in front of him flickered again, and the scene he saw the next moment made Zhang Xi fiercely pull out his pistol...

Second Lieutenant Leo, who appeared in his field of vision at this time, no longer looked like a normal person. He looked like a smiling face just a second ago. In Zhang Xi's field of vision at this time, his entire face had opened up like petals. When it opens, drops of thick mucus slip from the open petals, and you can even see the organs that look like sharp teeth densely covered on it.

And behind him, there was a silk thread that seemed both virtual and real, extending through the wall, making him look like a puppet on strings.

Obviously, he is no longer a "human"!

"What on earth are you?!" Zhang Chengxi shouted loudly as he backed away, but Lieutenant Leo did not answer. When Major Zhang Xi pulled out his pistol, he also touched his holster...

Seeing his actions, Zhang Xi immediately stopped hesitating and shot him in the head three times in a row. At this distance, all three shots hit him accurately, and Second Lieutenant Leo fell down.According to the reaction of a normal person, after being shot three times in the head, it would be impossible to get up again. However, Second Lieutenant Leo is obviously no longer a normal human being...

In Zhang Xi's field of vision, his three shots knocked half of Second Lieutenant Leo's head open like petals away. However, Second Lieutenant Leo who fell to the ground showed unusual vitality. After being severely injured, his body twisted and twisted, and then his hands and legs showed a strange posture of reverse joints, struggling to get up like a spider, and rushed towards Zhang Xi again!

Zhang Chengxi fired continuously until all twelve bullets in the pistol were fired, and then the monster stopped!

Only then did Zhang Xi notice that the thread on Lieutenant Leo's back gradually disappeared.

However, at the same time as the gunfire sounded, alarms began to sound throughout the building, which meant that the guards on duty at the base would soon arrive, and no matter what reason Zhang Xi had, he would be detained by then. stand up.Because even a major would not be allowed to directly shoot a second lieutenant officer without a trial.

Even if it can be explained clearly in the end, the most critical time will definitely be delayed!

On the other hand, Zhang Xi didn't know at all how many monsters like just now existed in Beacon Castle!

This kind of monster obviously has the ability to use humans as shells, and even retains a certain amount of wisdom from the original owner. If such a monster were allowed to enter the earth, the consequences would be simply unimaginable...

At this time, shouts were heard in front, which was the direction of the orbital module that Zhang Xi was originally going to...

Obviously, the previous plan had to be adjusted. Hearing shouts from the corridor ahead, Zhang Xi immediately turned around and left. He had another plan.

Passing through a long corridor, Zhang Chengxi went down from the elevator to the first floor as quickly as possible. He knew that his affairs would be exposed soon, and his authority would be locked by then, so he had to hurry up .

Not long after he left, there were rapid footsteps and shouts in the passage behind him. Zhang Xi did not stop, but accelerated forward.

About a minute later, he grabbed the handrail on the corridor and arrived in front of a gate in a catapult-like posture under low gravity conditions.

Chapter 592 Leave

Just as he started to check the identity verification on the door, a figure rushed out from the corner not far away. Zhang Xi glanced out of the corner of his eye and found that several people were already chasing him.

To be precise, it is no longer appropriate to say they are "people", because, perhaps in order to move faster in the corridors, these "people" all have spider-like postures. What is especially strange is that at this time, they The shape is with the chest and abdomen at the top, the back at the bottom, and the limbs are bent in a twisted posture, just like large insects, climbing towards Zhang Xi at a speed that exceeds that of a normal person.

At this time, Zhang Xi had passed the verification and the door was opening. Zhang Xi stepped into the door and immediately pressed the button to close the door. The moment he saw the door closing behind him, the pursuers had already caught up behind him and hit the door. Makes a dull sound.

Immediately afterwards, they saw the pursuers who had been twisted like monsters and began to perform identity verification.

At the same time, gunfire rang out again, and Zhang Xi fired three shots at the identity verification device next to the door, destroying it. As a result, the door was locked and temporarily unusable until someone came to repair it. .

Zhang Chengxi ignored the "people" banging on the door behind him and walked inside, while ejecting the pistol magazine and refilling the bullets.

This is a garage. There are several garages in the entire Fengsui Fort. This is one of them. It is rest time and there are no maintenance personnel in the garage.

Zhang Chengxi's plan at this time is that if there is no way to go directly to the military camp through the orbital module, then he can only drive there. Of course, this requires direct exposure to space and traveling through a considerable distance on the ground. In terms of speed and time, It's much slower, but relatively controllable.

Zhang Chengxi took out a spacesuit from the buffer area after entering and put it on. Before putting it on, he gave himself another electric shock.

Fortunately, his authority is still not locked at this time, and the major's authority can mobilize a variety of vehicles here.Zhang Chengxi chose an open-top outdoor cruising vehicle commonly used here. This kind of vehicle is specially designed to travel on asteroids like Fengsuibao. It does not use a wheel structure, but a magnetic levitation-like structure. The structure is more like a boat than a traditional vehicle.

Since the main structure of the asteroid where Fengsui Castle is located is made of iron and nickel, it is naturally qualified for the use of magnetic levitation technology. On the contrary, if it is an ordinary vehicle, it may rush out of the asteroid due to low gravity.

Zhang Chengxi opened the door from the garage to the outside world, then returned to the vehicle and fastened her seat belt. She started the vehicle and checked it. She directly unplugged the network connection and adopted completely mechanical mode.This would ensure that he would not be unable to start the vehicle due to his authority being cut off while driving. After that, he ignored the prompts that repeatedly popped up on the vehicle and started the vehicle.

The magnetic system started to work, and the entire vehicle began to lift and levitate. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xi stepped on the accelerator, accelerated the vehicle all the way, and began to go to the outside...

承和37年西历2016年3月31日02:05临州云山坊张宅

Zhang Jing was reading the intelligence and news summary sent to him by Sen Baolin in his study. Sen Baolin now sends him a news briefing of the day every day and a summary every week. It has to be said that this is compared to It’s not 01:30 that makes it more efficient for him to collect relevant information on the Internet by himself. After all, he is a professional.He can even collect some secret information that cannot be seen in normal media through his own channels or make his own research and judgment on some news. This undoubtedly gives Zhang Jing a better way to understand the world.

Therefore, when Zhang Jing thinks about it now, he needs to appropriately expand the teams of Senbaolin and Le Qingshan. After all, if nothing else, just information support is enough to make him more accurate and effective when making judgments. . , and at the same time, we are better able to grasp the changes that are taking place in the world.

One point mentioned in Sen Baolin's briefing attracted Zhang Jing's attention, that is, with the occurrence of some supernatural events around the world, major countries have begun to establish relevant organizations to deal with these incidents, including Dazhao. , most of the relevant organizations in various countries are independent from the intelligence system.

In addition, from the perspective of domestic stability, various countries have also begun to control relevant information, so that relevant information appearing on the networks of various countries will be blocked as soon as possible, and even the parties who sent the information will be interviewed. , and asked the other party to remain silent on the grounds of national security and other reasons.

However, even so, some gossip has inevitably begun to spread in a small area, especially the donations recently raised by major religious societies. Judging from the information that can be collected through public channels, it can be known that there has been a significant increase.

In addition, in the field of public opinion, as time goes by, the volume of discussions on niche topics such as religion, supernatural events, mysticism, etc. is also expanding. Some related non-mainstream scholars, UP owners, content production practitioners, etc., They are also adding fuel to the fire by retelling some recent events in their respective content programs and drawing some eye-catching conclusions to gain attention.

For example, the tomb of Song Shouxuan, a famous Taoist priest and Celestial Master in the Southern Qi Dynasty, was excavated during road maintenance, and the "Celestial Master's Appearance Incident" caused by this incident was even reported by the media at the time. Therefore, it was recently repeated by a guest on a variety show. Mention to support your point of view.

That variety show is a debate variety show. Since the topics are usually sensitive, it has always had a fairly stable audience.The debate title of the issue released not long ago was "In the interstellar age, do humans still need religion?"
