Kreese remained wordless. This choice was so confusing that he couldn't make up his mind at all.

"Master, to tell you the truth, I have no idea at all." Cristan is honest.

Wu Qi is not surprised, in other words, anyone will be stumped by the choice problem involving their own future.

"Master, what about the last two days of the escort mission? There are only 9 people left in the convoy, and there will probably be more plague species after that. I'm afraid we'......"

"Krees, you don't have to worry about this," Wu Qi smiled slightly, revealing extraordinary confidence in his faint smile, "It's enough for you to think about the future." ”

Wu Qi rarely laughs, but his laughter always has a magic, just like Mount Tai can talk and laugh even before the collapse, which is exceptionally reliable.

"Okay." Krees replied softly. His right hand always held the needle filled with the blood of the White Wolf King's heart, and did not lift it.

"It's not too early, rest early."

"Hmm."

Nothing was said all night. The next day, the new sun rose into the sky as usual, and the warm glow spread across all corners of the mining area, stretching the shadows of the large mining machines for a long time.

The temperature was warm and comfortable, and the extreme cold that was as low as tens of degrees below zero last night seemed to be just an illusion that did not exist.

Wu Qi lifted the curtain of the tent. He was dressed in a new white soldier's uniform, with an electromagnetic kinetic rifle hanging from the back of his tactical belt, and a three-foot-long knife that was also his strongest weapon, lying quietly in the scabbard on his back.

Wu Qi has a hunch that today's protagonist will be a long knife.

When the time came, the miners began their work on the penultimate morning, and the coarse noise of the large mining machines lingered throughout the mining area.

Wu Qi has been listening to these voices for 5 days, and he is used to it.

Morley did not call them over this morning to assign assignments, and as soon as the patrol time began, they took matters into their own hands and went on patrol according to their previous divisions.

Wu Qi walked straight into the area where Morley was patrolling, and Morley heard footsteps from behind him and turned around.

"Wu Qi, what are you doing here with me?" Morley's tone was calm and authentic. From him, I can't see the swaggering momentum of the previous few days.

It's not that Morley is cowardly, he just forbears. If he puts up a fight now, not only will he not be able to summon Wu Qi, but he will likely be humiliated. This is difficult for his self-esteem to accept.

At least he could put on a calm posture so that the two of them still looked equal on the surface.

"This is the central point of view that connects the whole patrol area, so let me sit here." Wu Qi said.

Morley was silent for two seconds and said, "If you think you have what it takes to sit in the center, then give it a try for you." ”

With that, Morley gave up his position and went to the patrol area where Wu Qi originally belonged.

Wu Qi simply pulled out the long knife, and with a clear sound of the blade coming out of the sheath, Wu Qi nailed the long knife to the ground with the blade facing down, and his hands overlapped to cover the end of the handle. His back was as tall as a pine and cypress, like the strongest guard in the mines.

The sunset and moonrise and the appearance of a beautiful orange-red sunset symbolize the end of the day. The miners who were off duty could not rest immediately, and they had to help the guards carry and clean up the corpses of the plague species to prevent the growth of mutant bacteria.

Wu Qi was still standing in place, his long knife was stained with blood, and the dried blood stains had reached the point where it was difficult to wipe it clean with a cloth.

From morning to evening, the total number of plague species that invaded the mining area reached 98, and a staggering 73 died under Wu Qi's long knife.

Wu Qi said that if he wants to sit in the center, he really wants to go all out to protect the mining area, even if he does not hesitate to expose his true strength.

No matter how difficult the situation is, as long as you spend two days, the escort mission will usher in the final victory.

The pale blue night sky is particularly quiet, and the mountain breeze carries a faint smell of blood. Wu Qi dispersed the perception net, and after not perceiving any of the aura of the plague species approaching, he lifted his posture.

He lifted his long knife from the ground, like a battlefield general in blood-stained heavy armor, and walked slowly but steadily towards his camp. Everywhere they passed, soldiers and miners looked sideways.

This day was the day when Wu Qi exposed his strength, and it was also a day that shocked the people in the whole mining area to Wu Qi and was speechless. Before today, the soldiers only admired Wu Qi, and the miners felt reliable about Wu Qi at most. At the end of today, their attitude towards Wu Qi has reached the point of looking up.

They had never seen a second-order pioneer who could instantly move through various locations in the mining area like a ghost with just one person and one sword, instantly taking away the life of one plague seed and harvesting the next, and even the process of fighting was so fast that people couldn't see it clearly. Even if Wu Qi was the strongest of the second order, slaughtering 73 individuals of the same rank with a completely crushing posture was too outrageous.

In their impressions, Wu Qi had already transformed into the strongest reinforcement with hidden strength that was actually a third-order pioneer. Wu Qi can now be said to be the biggest reliance of the understaffed mine guards to survive the last two days, that is, the trump card.

Wu Qi accepted many gazes from behind, sideways, and forward, and he did not squint, as if the eyes and discussions of others were like a cold moon and a breeze to him, and there was no wave in his heart.

Gao Yuan, Guo Bobai, and Krees stood outside the camp tent, smiling at their big hero, and Wu Qi, who was regarded as a "reliable trump card" by the whole mining area, returned. The evaluation of their team by the whole mine is growing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye, and the feeling that those who had previously excluded them in the name of jealousy are now eager to meet them and take a detour, which is really a comfortable breath for all of them.

Wu Qi came to the three of them, and Krees stepped forward and said excitedly, "Master, do you feel the eyes of that group of people?" It's absolutely stunning! ”

Wu Qi smiled slightly, and did not deny Krees's excitement. He said lightly: "If I say it here, I don't care about their eyes, isn't it too impersonal." ”

The corners of Guo Baibai's mouth crooked into a crescent moon, revealing two cute little dimples, she said, "That's right." ”

"But the boss also paid the price of exposing his strength because of this. With the character of the leader, he really doesn't care about the evaluation and vision of those people compared to the top priority of completing the escort mission," Gao Yuan folded his arms around his chest, and changed his words halfway through, "But I'm a layman, and this feeling is really quite relieving." ”

"Yes," replied, "it is better than that they do not look up to their master, but are afraid of their master's condition. ”

For a rare time, Krees felt that these ant-like humans were not so eyesore.

"Alright, let's eat first. I have important business to do tonight. Wu Qi stepped over the gap between the three of them and lifted the curtain of the tent.

The three of them looked at each other and asked in unison, "What is it?" ”

Wu Qi had already sat cross-legged on the marching blanket, he gently lowered his long knife to the floor in front of him, and then glanced up at the three of them.

"Go down the tunnel and uncover the true face of that 'thing'."

"Well, now you're a celebrity, and it's too easy to be found if you're gone, right?" Gao Yuan worried.

"Don't be so troublesome, Li Fushan, if you don't agree, you have to agree," Behind Wu Qi's gentle and calm tone, there was a domineering spirit that was as immobile as a mountain.
