The Flame of All Things Chapter 26 - The Nightcrawler (3)
"How's that, can it still be used?" Bolai turned down the brightness of the tactical flashlight to the lowest, constantly aiming around.
"There is no electricity and the backup generator is also broken. Chen Mingming replied, and he dropped the wire in his hand.
The power grid at the construction site was rendered useless in an instant, and the previously bright space suddenly became pitch black. After shooting several "zombie dogs", they hid inside the house at the bottom of the control tower.
"Didn't you say that the D-class crusade mission was casual? Ji Jie asked
"I don't know, according to the usual D-class crusade mission, the difficulty of about ten zombie dogs like this is about the same. Senior brother also felt a little strange.
"Ten of them? I think there's no less than forty or fifty of them moving outside. "Ji Jie is completely devastated
Now there is magic power and it cannot be used, it will provoke the "zombie dogs" outside, the entire construction site is in a state of loss of lighting system, and the infinite electric headphones are interfered with. They are trapped here.
"I think it's all about the people who raise these things. Chen Mingming said
"Yes, this kind of thing is premeditated, and the target of this crusade should be that middle-aged man, but he was ignored in the chaotic battle just now. Brother Bolai's voice was calm.
He tried to contact the college's satellites, but the signal was blocked.
"So what now? The people are gone, leaving behind a bunch of these monsters. Ji Jie secretly looked out of the crack in the door.
"This 'zombie dog' can't be left until the next day, otherwise the secrets here will be discovered. When the time comes, things will get out of hand. He opened the door and walked out.
"Hey, senior brother, there are so many ...... outside" Ji Jie just wanted to stop him, but Senior Brother Bolai had already walked out, and the squad leader Chen Mingming followed behind without saying a word.
He was the only one left in the room, and he hurried to follow.
With the memories they had just made, the three of them kept groping outside in the dark. The silence was broken by gunfire, and there was constant fire.
I could hear that it was the gunfire of the Academy's weapon Type 92, and it should be a student. The senior brother wanted to catch up, but the gunfire became farther and farther away.
"Senior brother, what do you see?" Chen Mingming said, pointing to a black figure in front of him
The shadow seemed to know that it had been discovered, and hurried backwards.
"Chase. β
Bolai didn't hesitate and rushed straight to the dark shadow target.
"Aren't you going to help your companion?" asked Ji Jie
"If the source of the problem is not solved, it is useless to help. Chen Mingming made his own judgment, and he followed Senior Xiang Bolai.
Ji Jie was a little hesitant, in fact, the instructor had asked everyone this question as early as the freshman training camp.
At that time, the instructor stood on the stage
"If you join the Operations Section in the future, there are two choices in front of you when you are on a crusade mission. First, the target of the crusade is escaping, and if it is not pursued in time, this operation will fail. Second, the team members are in danger and may die if they don't help. Which one will you choose?"
"Help your teammates!" no one objected. The freshmen are also proud of each other's tacit understanding.
"Additionally, if the target escapes, you will not be able to complete the mission, you will not be able to exit safely, and all of you will be in danger. And now?" The instructor's voice was emotionless, he just described it lightly
"This ......," many people began to hesitate. But the voice of helping teammates still prevails, because those who abandon their teammates don't deserve to go to war.
"Plus, if the target escapes, all of you will die. And now?"
"It's not fair, why do you fall into this situation because you save your teammates? In actual combat, it is possible that because you save your teammates and preserve your combat effectiveness, the situation will not fall into a crisis. Someone below refuted it
"You're right, it's the case. The instructor paused, "But in actual combat, it's hard to tell which choice is in your favor." Because you don't know what happens after you do it. β
"What does the instructor mean?"
"If people are saved, targets must be killed. β
"This ...... How to do it. β
"Lift yourself up and don't let that happen. Believe that your teammates have the ability to get out of the crisis, and also trust that your teammates will come and help you. More importantly, believe in yourself. β

Bullets streaked across the sky, the steel cables on the crane were broken, and hundreds of kilograms of pianos fell into the building on the side. A loud roar woke up Ji Jie.
He gritted his teeth and stepped forward to follow his senior brother.
Senior Brother Bolai and Chen Mingming in front of him chased all the way, and the black shadow was not fast, so he hid in the unfinished building, trying to hide inside. But Bolay was also a C-class commissioner after all, and he shot as he ran, and the bullets were ready to hit the path of the black shadow.
"Boy, what are your abilities?" shouted Boley
"Senior brother is optimistic. Chen Mingming felt his whole body boiling.
He had been training hard for so long, just for the moment when he went to the battlefield, and some things that were hidden in deep, deep places were lifted little by little. Scenes of marquee-like phantoms flashed through his mind, and no matter how deep the pain was, he sealed it away.
The middle-aged man fell to the ground, and a bullet hit him at the foot. He could almost feel the bullet grazing the side of his leather boot. The people behind were chasing too fast for him to escape.
So he decided to give up, and he took the initiative to remove the American cashmere fur from his head.
"Don't do it!" he shouted
ββββββββ
Xia Linyu planned to choose a very high place from the beginning, after all, girls should be a little timid. She hid in a sundrewn building on the side, just long enough for a radio headset to deliver the message.
But after a while, there was a fierce gunfire in the center of the construction site. She could only hear Brother Bolai's voice from the earphones, "Leave now!".
Who is it? Beast? I've never seen a beast before. She felt a little regretful, there were eight people in the same group, why did she find such a secluded corner to hide?
I didn't bring a partner with me.
I don't know what happened to Yesranka, although that guy is also a girl, but there are not as many boys as she is.
"How's it going?" she asked, but the radio headset no longer had that sizzling radio sound, and suddenly it seemed to be broken.
Xia Linyu slapped it hard, but the headphones still seemed to be out of order. So she jumped down from the unfinished building, patted the dust off her body, and walked towards the center.
"Let's find a companion first. She decided.
There were gunshots all the way, undulating, and the location of the gunfire divisions was scattered. Are there so many enemies? Is the enemy also a squad?
It was dark on the construction site, and the streetlights that used to be there every little distance were now all out, and tonight was a rare moonless night. Xia Linyu turned on the tactical flashlight, hung it on the pistol, and pointed ahead.
It's really annoying, why do you have to walk alone at night. She thought. Didn't any of the boys come to her with a reliable point? He thought of Gu Xiaobei and Ji Jie in the trio. scolded them for having no heart and lungs, and they usually invite guests to dinner, right?
But what happened to leave her here alone?
When she was looking for a vantage point, she remembered a classmate who was very close to her position. It's around here. It was a storage house, where cement bags were stacked and where workers occasionally ate.
There are fast food boxes all over the floor.
"Ding Yuan, are you there? I'm Xia Linyu. She shouted softly
Ding Yuan is also their classmate, but this guy usually doesn't talk much, and his sense of existence is relatively average, except for Gu Xiaobei, who occasionally talks to him, the rest of the people don't talk to him.
Xia Linyu's voice echoed in the storage room, a little ethereal. No one replied to her.
"Isn't it there?" she muttered, thinking that Ding Yuan should also go to find his companions. Sure enough, I am
She was about to turn her head, but she seemed to hear something.
It was the sound of eating, wild beasts gnawing at their prey, and the air smelled of blood and rust. The claws pierced into the flesh, bringing out large swaths of internal organs.
The light of the tactical flashlight passed, and a creeping shadow appeared on the ground.
"It's ....... Xia Linyu covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound. She extinguished the light of the flashlight, and only the red eyes remained in the darkness.
Is it eating something? Swallowing and biting, Xia Linyu wanted to see the face of the corpse on the ground, and she turned on the flashlight again.
No need to look any further, she covered her mouth and ran out, holding back the feeling of vomiting.
The figure on the ground is a classmate from the past three months.
Obviously yesterday, they were still on the same train, and they were still eating together. But now, the familiar figure was lying on the ground and being used as food.
A loud noise could be heard in the distance.
Xia Linyu felt it, and the figure behind him ran towards him.
