Chapter Twenty-Four: The Rescue Team Outside the City
Outside the city of Guanghua
late at night
In the dark night, a military off-road vehicle drove on the road to Guanghua City. There were two men and a woman in camouflage uniforms in the car, and the driver, a burly man, drove the car slowly. Because there are no street lights on the road, and twenty hours have passed since the cataclysm, it is not uncommon for vehicles to cross the middle of the road, hindering the speed of off-road vehicles.
Sitting in the passenger seat was a beautiful woman, with her right arm on the window, holding her chin and staring out the window, thinking about something.
In the back of the SUV sat another scrawny male, humming a little tune while fiddling with the military machete in his hand.
"Monkey, can you please stop fiddling with that thing, don't scratch us with this little space in the car." Li Siqiang said to the people behind him.
"If you want to take care of it, just drive your car, what so much nonsense!" Jia Xingguo replied to him disdainfully.
"Sister Maggie, you should take care of him." Li Siqiang asked for help from the beautiful woman next to him.
"Okay Xingguo, don't play with your knife, I have something to discuss with you." Wang Meiqi turned around and said to Jia Xingguo behind her.
Since it was Wang Meiqi who spoke, Jia Xingguo immediately put the machete back into the scabbard.
"What's the order?" Jia Xingguo looked at Wang Meiqi with a serious face.
Wang Meiqi said to Li Siqiang and Jia Xingguo: "Along the way, I have been reflecting on whether we are the culprits of this catastrophe because we burned the prisoner's body." ”
"Sister Maggie, we are soldiers, and we only obey the orders of the Federation. Since it is a federal requirement to study this virus, we can only enforce it, regardless of the consequences. Li Siqiang said to Wang Meiqi while driving the car.
"I know what you say makes sense, but I can't bear to think of so many innocent people dying because of us." Wang Meiqi slowly lowered her head.
Jia Xingguo comforted Wang Meiqi and said: "Sister Meiqi's Federation is also out of helplessness, if we don't study this virus, but let the enemy country research it for weapons first, then more innocent people will die in future wars." ”
"I see, we are soldiers, and the interests of the Federation are above all else." Wang Meiqi raised her head and smiled at the two.
Jia Xingguo suddenly looked at Wang Meiqi suspiciously and asked, "But Sister Meiqi, there is one thing I really can't understand?" ”
Maggie Wang replied, "What's the matter?" ”
"How could this virus appear for no reason, as your father's guards, we only heard that the base is developing chemical weapons, at first I thought it was a virus like the flu, but I never thought it would be such a virus." Jia Xingguo said helplessly. "And the second basement laboratory of the base, I also entered it for the first time, how many unknown secrets does the general still have, and he is hiding from us!"
Wang Meiqi replied: "I have only participated in the research of the virus, but I only learned about the mutation biology laboratory on the second basement floor. So I don't know more than you do, and I'm sure my father hid it from everyone because of the Federation's orders. ”
"But how did this virus get discovered, Sister Maggie?" Li Siqiang asked.
"Well, I won't hide it from you, this is the top secret of the Federation, and you shouldn't be let know." Maggie Wang sighed and continued. "Due to the war in recent years and people's long-term destruction of nature, the ozone layer in the atmosphere has been thinned, and the ability to protect against light particles has decreased, resulting in global warming and a significant greenhouse effect. As the temperature at the poles rises significantly, viruses that were hidden millions of years ago beneath the ice are becoming active and waking up. There was a team of ten people on a bipolar expedition, and this rare ancient virus was occasionally discovered during polar expeditions. In order to obtain a sample of the virus, they tried to bring it back to the institute, and in the end, only one person survived and successfully brought the virus back to the institute, and this person is Professor Li Xiangbin, whom you know. But I never expected that just yesterday, when we were doing the first human experiment, because of the mistake of handling the corpse, it brought an unprecedented disaster to the entire human race. ”
"The whole of humanity... Sister, no! Li Siqiang said in surprise.
"Believe me, in three months at most, the World Destroyer No. 1 will sweep the world." At this time, Wang Meiqi's expression was extremely calm.
The three of them sat in a moving SUV and never said a word again.
After a long time, Li Siqiang said to Wang Meiqi next to him: "Sister Meiqi, there is Guanghua City in front." ”
All three people in the car looked ahead. On weekdays, the whole city should be brightly lit, but now it is like a dead city, and the whole city is hidden in darkness except for a few buildings that are still lit.
"Sister Meiqi, the road ahead is getting harder and harder." Li Siqiang said to Wang Meiqi.
Suddenly, the crowd felt the buggy start to jolt. The highway is full of car parts. The further they went, the harder it became, and when they reached a distance of three kilometers from the city, more than a dozen cars crashed into each other, blocking the road.
Li Siqiang said to Jia Xingguo behind him: "Monkey, get me an automatic rifle from the trunk, and I'll go down and take a look at the situation." ”
Jia Xingguo turned around and knelt in the back seat, rummaged through the trunk, took an automatic rifle out, and then handed it to Jia Li Siqiang and said, "Be careful." ”
Li Siqiang nodded, turned on the safety device on the automatic rifle, then got out of the off-road vehicle and walked towards the accident vehicles.
"No, it's too dark. Xingguo went down to help him. Wang Meiqi said to Jia Xingguo behind her.
"yes, I see." After speaking, Jia Xingguo also got out of the car.
"Why are you here, who protects Sister Maggie, go back!" Li Siqiang whispered.
"Sister Meiqi asked me to come, he doesn't worry about you, you have to go back, go back yourself." Jia Xingguo replied in a low voice.
In this way, the two of them whispered one by one, and turned on the bickering mode again.
Just as the two of them were frozen in place, Wang Meiqi popped her head out of the window and whispered: "You two hurry up, go and don't ink together." I still use you two for protection? With that, she took out a pistol from her waist and dangled it in front of the two of them.
There was no way Wang Meiqi gave a death order, and there was no point in the two arguing any longer, so they could only prepare and slowly move forward and carefully inspect the past.
Li Siqiang turned on the tactical flashlight on the automatic rifle, raised the gun, and slowly patrolled forward. Compared with Li Siqiang, Jia Xingguo's equipment is much simpler, he holds a strong flashlight in his left hand, his military dagger in his right hand, and follows Li Siqiang with his hands crossed in a vigilant posture.
"Uhhhhh
"How many?" Jia Xingguo was behind Li Siqiang, and walked to Li Siqiang's side while asking.
"One, do you go or do I go?" Li Siqiang asked.
"You go, if it's just one, I won't dirty my knife, or I'll have to wipe it." Jia Xingguo said with his head to the other side.
"You know I'm sorry." Li Siqiang looked at the back of Jia Xingguo's head with a look of disdain.
"You! Give me a gun. After speaking, Li Siqiang handed over the automatic rifle to Jia Xingguo.
Li Siqiang walked towards the living corpse opposite with his bare hands.
I saw the living corpse opposite him, the clothes on his body were already in tatters, and there were traces of being torn and bitten everywhere on his body.
When the living corpse approached Li Siqiang and was about to pounce on him and bite him, Li Siqiang came behind the living corpse in an instant, and the slow-moving living corpse had not yet reacted, he hugged the head of the living corpse with both hands, and his right leg knee was pressed against the waist of the living corpse, and his hands were twisted and pulled up. Within two seconds, I heard a 'pop'. The head of the living corpse was pulled out alive by Li Siqiang's thick arm, and even the spine was pulled out together.
Just when Jia Xingguo was standing in place, a fishy liquid suddenly sprayed over from opposite him.
"Phew, that's fucking disgusting!" Jia Xingguo looked at his body.
At this time, his body was covered in black and red blood, and the stench almost made him vomit.
"You kid did it on purpose, Li Dahan!" Jia Xingguo angrily scolded Li Siqiang with a nickname.
"You let me go, just a living corpse, I don't want to use a gun, in case of alarming the living corpses around, we can't do it, besides, you have a knife, I don't have a knife." Li Siqiang looked at the brother opposite him with disdain.
"Okay... Yes... Yes... I can't say you can do it. After speaking, he threw the gun to Li Siqiang and continued to walk forward.
At a distance of dozens of meters behind, there were still a few scattered living corpses, and every time Li Siqiang wanted to hand over the gun to Jia Xingguo, Jia Xingguo immediately refused.
"Come on, I'll come, I can't afford you, you can rest!" Jia Xingguo said the same thing to Li Siqiang every time.
Half an hour later, in front of the off-road vehicle, Wang Meiqi saw the two returning.
"Well, what does that smell like!" Wang Meiqi covered her nose and said to Jia Xingguo.
"Sister, Li Siqiang, this bastard cheated me!" Jia Xingguo sued Wang Meiqi.
"Sister, don't listen to him, this kid is a chicken thief!" Li Siqiang immediately defended.
The two of you, I said one sentence, Wang Meiqi wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to laugh out loud.
"Defeated by the two of you, there are spare clothes in the trunk, go and change them on, this fishy smell is not good for your health for a long time.
Five minutes later, Jia Xingguo walked out from the back of the SUV, and by this time he had changed into a clean set of clothes.
The three of them got into the car and discussed their next steps.
"We can't get into Guanghua City by car, so we can only go in on foot." Li Siqiang said to Wang Meiqi.
"Don't make a fuss, we still have three kilometers to get to the east of Guanghua City, Guanghua Ocean College is in the west of the city, do you want the three of us to walk through the whole city." Jia Xingguo immediately became emotional.
"What's the solution?" Li Siqiang replied.
"Guanghua City has a population of 9.4 million, and it is a miracle that 100,000 people in the city are still alive. Do you want us to fight all the way to the west of the city? Jia Xingguo lost his temper at Li Siqiang.
"Alright... All right... Don't quarrel between the two of you, there's no way around it. What we have to consider now is how to get to Guanghua Ocean College. Wang Meiqi smiled at Jia Xingguo.
Looking at Wang Meiqi's moving smile, Jia Xingguo said helplessly: "Okay, I won't say it, you two can love it as much as you like, I am only responsible for protecting Sister Meiqi." ”
After Wang Meiqi saw that Jia Xingguo's mood had stabilized, her expression immediately became serious and said: "Jia Xingguo and Li Siqiang obey orders!" ”
"Here! What instructions does the lieutenant colonel have! Both replied at the same time.
"Put all the extra weapons in the car, drive the car to a hidden place and hide, let's travel lightly and start preparing." Wang Meiqi gave the order, and at this time her majesty was no less than that of her father, General Wang Long.
After they hid the off-road vehicle, the group of three set off towards Guanghua City with a few weapons.
