Chapter VIII: New Tasks

The Battle of the Valley of Despair ended in a crushing victory for the defenders.

At this time, it was late at night, but there was a commotion in the Defender Mi Branch, and on the square, thousands of defenders gathered under the podium, all listening to the speech of the defender Major General on the stage.

"This raid was perfect, we eliminated the base of the lurkers in northwestern Arizona in one fell swoop, although there are people who have returned to the arms of God, we will not forget them, so the people who survive are meritorious men, so I decided to promote Hank to second lieutenant, the rank of one level to be promoted, Feng Zhan, Lucas, Claire to corporal."

Immediately afterwards, there was a dense applause from the audience.

Subsequently, the middle-aged young general personally wore a new military rank for everyone, which was a great honor for others, but Feng Zhan didn't feel the slightest honor, because their honor was exchanged for their lives, which made Feng Zhan feel guilty, although Feng Zhan had only known them for a few hours.

Then the crowd listened to the major general's tirade, and time slipped away from the major general's speech......

The night flew by, and the next day, under the gaze of Hank and Claire, the plane took off slowly, Claire's eyes flashed with an unknown light, and she whispered in a voice that only she could hear: "Don't worry! Fight, next time I must be stronger than you, so that I can be worthy of you. ”

Probably since Feng Zhan rescued Claire, this girl always had Feng Zhan's face in her mind, and then her face was flushed and her shame exploded.

Rewind to the end of last night's meeting.

"What task?" Feng Zhan vaguely guessed something, but he wasn't quite sure.

"Area Thirteen, you've probably heard of it!" The middle-aged major general is not nonsense either.

How could Feng Zhan not have heard of the thirteenth region, but the biochemical map he first came into contact with, strictly speaking, Feng Zhan had a special affection for the thirteenth region.

Feng Zhan only knew that it was a biochemical map, and Feng Zhan didn't know its specific background story, so he tentatively said: "There is an outbreak of biochemical virus in the thirteenth area?" ”

"That's right, it was done by the group of lurkers, this group of guys is really crazy, none of the members of the search and rescue survivors sent by the Celestial Empire headquarters have come back, so Shangfeng asked me to find you, your experience in the Valley of Despair, Shangfeng already knows, so he specially named you and Lucas, as for Hank and Claire, their age is not suitable, you go back early now to rest, and set off early tomorrow morning."

As soon as the picture turned, he returned to the plane, Feng Zhan's mood can be described as extremely complicated, he just came out of the Valley of Despair, and now he is going to the thirteenth region, facing a more dangerous existence, if he can, Feng Zhan would rather go back to the original world, at least the original world, he doesn't have to do the work of a mercenary.

"System, I'm already a corporal, is there any new permission to unlock?" Feng Zhan asked in his mind.

"Congratulations to the host, you have unlocked the virtual mall and tactical prediction skills, the virtual mall, you can use the virtual currency in the system to buy physical objects, including firearms, food, ammunition, medicine, and armor, and tactical prediction is the probability analysis that you can see what the enemy will do in the next second, the above is the current permission, the rest of the skills or something, please upgrade the host to the sergeant and then unlock it."

Feng Zhan couldn't help laughing when he saw such a magic skill of tactical prediction, and then Lucas next to him immediately glanced at him, and finally squinted his eyes and stared at Feng Zhan, Feng Zhan couldn't help but be shocked when he saw it, could it be that he found something?

It should be unlikely, just when Feng Zhan was thinking about how to break the atmosphere, "Poof! Then Lucas's squinted eyes stretched out, revealing a very cool expression, yes, this is Lucas's fart, and then Feng Zhan's cheeks twitched......

After a long-distance flight of more than two hours, Feng Zhan and Lucas finally arrived at the defender station around the thirteenth area of the Celestial Empire, but this place looks more like a desert, and there are many patrol guards here, they seem to be particularly vigilant in a place, Feng Zhan looked in the direction of their vigilance, only to see that there is a towering steel wire fence with no end in sight, and inside the steel wire mesh are all kinds of high-rise buildings in the thirteenth area, but those high-rise buildings have been dilapidated, obviously experienced the destruction of artillery fire, Feng Zhan vaguely guessed something, They were then taken to the commander's office by the garrison commander's guards.

"Report to the chief, Corporal Feng Zhan, Lucas is here to report." Feng Zhan and Lucas gave a standard military salute to the resident commander, and the resident commander also returned the salute and motioned for the two to sit down and talk.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, two young and promising corporals, let me introduce myself, the contemptible Chen Feihu is in charge of the defense of the periphery of Area 13." The young man, dressed in the uniform of the Flying Tigers and with the rank of major, said.

"This time the two people are also for the thirteenth region, right?" Chen Feihu looked at the two and asked his own question.

"Yes, but I just saw that the entire Thirteenth area has become dilapidated, why is that?" Although he knew some secrets, he couldn't help but want to ask the origin of the matter.

"Three months ago, the infiltrators raided our camp near here, and their fighter jets dropped a missile here, causing a small number of casualties, and our branch reassured the people that they would find out the lurkers, and the resentment stopped, but who knows, this is only the beginning of the nightmare, that night, the people who were injured by the missile, or the people who were closer at that time, began to mutate, their complexion turned red, and their personalities became extremely irritable, and in the next few days, The police station in Area 13 keeps receiving reports that some red-skinned weirdos are attacking passers-by for no reason, and they are so ruthless that people die every time. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Feihu took a sip of water and continued: "There are more and more such things, but no one knows that this virus is contagious, finally, the virus broke out on a large scale in the No. 13 area, fortunately, the high-level defenders found some clues in advance, so they ordered the transfer of 30,000 soldiers, surrounded the No. 13 area, and set up fortifications, anyone who comes out of it must be tested, and it is precisely because of this that the virus has not spread for the time being, otherwise, I can't imagine the consequences of the spread of the virus." Saying that, Chen Feihu was also afraid for a while.

"I see, so what does Major Chen need us to do?" Feng Zhan looked at Chen Feihu, waiting for his order.

"Actually! It's that we need to know the situation inside, the only certainty at the moment is that there are survivors inside, and the two of you are called here because they have experience in dealing with those things, we have organized a rescue team, the purpose is not only to investigate the biochemical ghosts inside, but also to rescue the survivors, from today on, this rescue team, will be handed over to you to train, just teach them, you are in the Valley of Desperation to deal with those biochemical ghosts, after that, by the two of you led the team into the thirteenth area, I hope my comrades can come back a few more. ”

Feng Zhan nodded in response.

Immediately, Chen Feihu led the two out of the office and into the square.

"Rescue team assembled!" In less than a minute, hundreds of young men and women gathered in the square, and they quickly stood in line within thirty seconds, and then one of them came out and shouted in a sonorous voice: "Report to the chief, the temporary rescue team has been assembled, please instruct." ”

Chen Feihu nodded, and then began to speak: "Let me introduce, these two are your new instructors, Corporal Feng Zhan, and Corporal Lucas. ”

As soon as the words fell, the rescue team began to talk.

"So young? Can he train us? ”

"Maybe it's some kind of nerd, or the son of a high-ranking official." As soon as this statement came out, many people immediately echoed it.

"But he's very handsome."

A few girls talked about Feng Zhan's appearance again.

Although it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders, Feng Zhan looks younger than them, and although he is already a corporal, it is inevitable that it will be a little difficult to convince the public.

"Report!"

One walked out of the queue and shouted.

"Speak!"

Chen Feihu responded.

"He can't teach us!"

The man glanced at Feng Zhan with disdain.

"Why do you say that?"

Chen Feihu looked at Feng Zhan playfully, wanting to see how he stepped down.

"If he has any ability, or a brilliant record, then we will obey him."

As he spoke, the man's gaze never left Feng Zhan, as if trying to find an ugly look on his face, but he was disappointed, Feng Zhan maintained that bright smile from beginning to end.

"Are you not convinced that I am?"

Feng Zhan looked at the person who came out of the queue with a smile, glanced at the others, and asked, "Who else disagrees with me, let's stand up together!" ”

Hearing this, some people hesitated, probably because they were afraid that Feng Zhan had some strong backgrounds, and some of them didn't care about it, and stood up in a daze, and in the end, only a dozen or so people stood up.

"Very good, give you a chance, if you want to challenge me, please come out of the queue If you win, I won't turn around and leave! You come to lead the team," Feng Zhan looked at the dozen or so people and said coldly.

"Young man, this is what you said, don't regret it when the time comes."

As he spoke, Li Zhen licked his lips and stared at Feng Zhan with a look full of wild killing intent, hoping to find some bad emotions on Feng Zhan's face again, but he was disappointed again, and Feng Zhan's face was still terrified.

"How do you want to compare?"

Feng Zhan looked at Li Zhen playfully, if Li Zhen knew Feng Zhan's current data, then he would definitely shut up and obediently obey the order, but there is no if in the world.

"Just fight in the simplest and roughest way!"

Li Zhen chose to make a death comparison, and fought with a ruthless person whose physical strength was 135% higher than his, wasn't that dancing on the edge of the cliff?

"Yes, but I have one condition." Feng Zhan glanced at the others.

"Oh? What conditions? ”

Li Zhen was a little proud, he thought that Feng Zhan was afraid, and he thought that this young corporal Gu was pretending to be shocked, but Feng Zhan's next sentence made him stunned.

"If you don't accept it, let's go together!"

Feng Zhan's words were astonishing, these unconvinced people were stunned at first, and then they became a little angry, this is a naked provocation.

"Don't regret it!"

Letting out this sentence, Li Zhen took the lead in pounced on Feng Zhan, his right fist was like a tiger, and Feng Zhan pushed him away with one hand, just such a push, for Li Zhen, how could it be so comfortable, his whole person flew out of seven or eight meters, and then fell to the ground.

The rest of the people were stunned for a moment, and then they also rushed towards Feng Zhan, trying to use the crowd tactics to pile up Feng Zhan to death.

The corners of Feng Zhan's mouth lifted a ghostly smile, and then he shuttled through the rest of the people as fast as lightning, and all those who were not convinced were pushed to the ground, Feng Zhan did not make a ruthless move, after all, they were both defenders, so they were all in a bad robe.

"Are you convinced?"

Feng Zhan looked at everyone lying on the ground and said aloud.
