Chapter 373: An Unrestful Atmosphere on
Wu Qi suddenly disappeared in place, his legs bursting out at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour. He teleported to the invisible owl's side like a ghost, and the invisible owl sensed a strong danger, and immediately sped up into the air, hiding out of the range of the long knife's attack.
The next moment, the invisible owl found that Wu Qi did not swing his knife to slash it, but threw two projectiles. It's easy to dodge.
It didn't recognize, it was a pop and flash that pulled the clasp. Light. Play.
A blinding blazing white light and a high-pitched, terrifying roar suddenly emerged from the dark forest. The strong visual and auditory impact caused the birds that inhabited the vicinity to be frightened and fled one after another. The same movement was transmitted to the battlefield in the mining area.
Two minutes later, Wu Qi returned to the mine with a steady pace. He pushed aside the last of the dark barriers made of the woods, and the bright yellow lights between the mines immediately came into view.
What broke into Wu Qi's field of vision was also a terrifying wolf corpse, and a pool of red blood that was half-connected. Thick, thick filthy blood flowed on the dusty surface, emitting a pungent smell of blood all the time, which was unpleasantly disgusting.
Morley and the other guards stood in the middle of the mine, near the miners' tents. They were surrounded by two sheets of white cloth, slightly raised, just wide and long enough to cover a person.
Wu Qi jumped to the area of the buffer zone and walked to the center of the mining area step by step. He saw Morley and the others with solemn expressions, especially Morley, whose scarlet eyes reflected the light of anger and hatred, as if he had killed so many terrible wolves was far from being able to vent.
Morley heard footsteps on the edge of the mine and jerked his head to see the person he hated the most at the moment.
"Wu Qi! You're one of the sentry posts in charge of night duty, why didn't you fire a flare gun......" Morley opened his mouth. However, in the middle of his sentence, the pupils of his vermilion eyes suddenly contracted.
He saw Wu Qi's extremely serious injuries. A large piece of flesh had been dug out of the left armpit by something, and it appeared empty; There was a bottomless scar on the left side of his neck, and his neck, shoulders, and even the chest and trouser legs of the white soldier's uniform were stained crimson with blood.
Wu Qi's footsteps were not vain, and his movements were step by step, steady and steady. He looked at Morley with an unkind look, and his obsidian-like eyes showed a frank expression.
A pitch-black knife shadow flashed out from behind Wu Qi, and with a pop, the body of the invisible owl with a pierced chest was thrown on the ground between Wu Qi and Morley.
"If I hadn't killed it in the forest, the mine would have suffered much more." Wu Qi lightly stated the facts. He understood that if he said this, Morley would definitely not believe it, at least not in his mouth.
The facts are easy to verify, and even if they do, they will be covered up by the words of "pretending not to understand", so Wu Qi thinks that he doesn't need to explain. The extractable psychic virus stock solution from the enemy's corpse and the two fatal wounds on his body that rested on ordinary people are silent and best explained.
The only defense he could do against Morley was the one sentence he had just said, and that sentence was his strongest defense.
Morley bowed his head slightly, glanced at the corpse of the invisible owl, and then ordered one of his men to bring the corpse of the invisible owl back. Wu Qi had already left his position in the process and walked to his team's tent.
"Stop." Morley said coldly.
Wu Qi paused in his footsteps and turned around without dragging his feet.
"Captain Morley, what are you doing?"
"Come and clean up the battlefield, it's part of your job." Morley's voice was cold and hard, like a polyhedron with sharp edges and corners, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Wu Qi did not disobey the order, but obeyed Morley's order and walked back.
Immediately afterward, Morley ordered all the guards to disperse to clean up the battlefield, demanding that the corpse of the terrible wolf and the blood on the ground must be cleaned up until there was no trace of blood.
All the guards in the mining area have not slept all night.
When the sky was white, it was the quietest time in the mine in the past few hours. In two hours, the miners, who had been terrified all night, would get up to continue their sixth-to-last day's work, and the sleeping convoy soldiers would have to get up.
In the few minutes that Wu Qi was not in the mining area, the guards led by Morley suffered an unprecedented terrorist attack since the 23rd and 23rd night. A total of forty-eight wolves rushed into the mining area, and the soldiers of the escort team swore to resist on the premise of protecting all the miners.
Of the 15 soldiers of the original mining area guard, 6 were slightly injured, 4 were moderately wounded, 2 were seriously injured and 2 died; One of them died of blood loss, and the other had his head bitten off by a wolf, leaving no body behind. The only one who came unscathed was Morley.
And Wu Qi's team, except for Wu Qi, who was not lightly injured, the others, including Little Red Fox July, were only slightly injured at most.
The impact of the night on Morley's mood was undoubtedly devastating. He originally planned to easily complete the last 7 days of escort duties and return to the Dawn Base for promotion. By the way, I didn't have a few people who were annoying Wu Qi and his party, and I took it as fun; Unexpectedly, the danger of the forests around the mining area increased tenfold overnight, and he had to worry about whether he could successfully complete the protection mission.
The short time seemed to fly faster in the biological clocks of those who lacked sleep, and the early bell rang in the various camps, and the guards and miners walked out of the camps one after another, all with very ugly faces.
Li Fushan couldn't sleep all night, he contacted the Dawn base overnight, reported the tragic situation last night, and this time walked out of the camp with a pair of black circles. He urged the logisticians in charge of breakfast to hurry up, and used his high-pitched voice to influence the miners, hoping to restore their spirits somewhat.
A hand peeked out of a crack in the camp on the heights, and opened the curtain of the tent. Wu Qi walked out of the tent, and at this moment the missing muscles under his left armpit were almost completely regenerated, there was still a circle of scars on the surface of his skin, and only a thin mark was left on his neck.
Standing on the high ground, Wu Qi looked at the sky between the two peaks on the other side of the mining area. The sun rises between the two peaks, casting a warm golden glow onto the earth.
Today is the penultimate day after the end of Wu Qi and the others' escort mission, and Wu Qi decided to take the initiative to negotiate with Morley again.
Last night's horde of wolves that attacked the mine was three times as large as the convoy, and all of them were second-order plague species. In such a difficult situation, the escort team was able to hold the line and not let any of the miners be injured, which made Wu Qi begin to face up to Morley's leadership and the dedication of all the guards to the mission goal. And Morley is the only one in the escort who is unscathed, and his strength may not be as good as his own, but he should not be underestimated.
