In the early hours of this morning, we found the dog demon 'National Teacher' you mentioned. ”

Half an hour later, a fully enclosed bulletproof SUV drove quickly towards the barracks in the east of the city, and in the car, Chairman Yu introduced to Chu Ge, "More precisely, it took the initiative to show up - in the past week's excavation, hundreds of shield machines and excavators have been working day and night, but the geological structure of Lingshan City is too fragile and too complex, we can't simply and rudely cut the underground cracks and spaces directly, doing so will only cause large-scale collapse, so the progress is very slow. We have never found the biochemical lab or the rat civilization lair 'Luminous City' that you mentioned.

"However, perhaps because of our movements, at about three o'clock in the morning, the canine demon voluntarily emerged from a crack in the ground and was almost crushed into meat sauce by our shield machine.

"It is said that when it was found, it was already a blur of flesh and blood, dying, and extremely badly injured.

"However, it can still speak, it can communicate with humans, and it can also introduce its identity in relatively clear language, and its confession can be matched with the information you bring back.

"Now, the 'national division' has been sent to the newly established joint operations center dedicated to dealing with underground threats, and is under the supervision of Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, the commander of the Crow Force, who has just been transferred to Lingshan City.

"Since you are the first person to bring back the information, and you have had close contact with the 'National Teacher', Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting is also very interested in you, and I hope that you will participate in the interrogation of the 'National Teacher' together, judge the authenticity of its words, and provide valuable advice for the next action.

"Chu Ge, don't look at this Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, he is just a small colonel-level officer, but he is a typical 'small official with big power', and the big and small matters related to the underground threat in Lingshan City, including how to deal with the problems of insect tides, snake demons and rat civilizations, the council and the military have authorized him to decide, whether it is our extraordinary association or the seventh department of the Special Investigation Bureau, or the Red Helmets and other underground construction units, they are all for him, and they must cooperate with his work.

"So, whatever you think, you must convince this Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, of course, his style of acting, Major Guan Shanzhong should have told you that day - this is not an easy person to be convinced."

"I understand."

Chu Ge nodded, knowing in his heart that this Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting might not be easy to deal with.

But no matter how difficult it is to deal with, he does not want to watch the boundless fire of war ignite underground, and finally burn to the ground, evolving into a catastrophe of the two worlds above ground and underground.

I can only see the moves, and take one step at a time.

The SUV soon parked in a newly erected, continuous tent area in the eastern suburbs.

Different from the traditional barracks composed of green and silver-white tents, all the inflatable hard-topped tents here are all black, which is both heavy and cold, and at first glance, it looks like a palace or even a mausoleum made of black marble, with a lifeless smell.

Surrounded by barbed wire and high-voltage electricity, every few meters hangs a glaring warning sign with hideous skulls and biohazard patterns.

A group of soldiers wearing black negative pressure epidemic prevention suits, wearing red goggles, and tightly wrapped around them, really looked like crows standing up, full of vigilant eyes, sweeping around Chu Ge's SUV like swords.

These soldiers from the "Crow Army" have been born and died in the epidemic area for a long time, and the sea of corpses and blood they have seen is a hundred times more cruel than the bloody killing on the battlefield.

Even the military dogs they were holding were wearing special negative pressure epidemic prevention suits and filter masks protruding from the front, like monsters from hell.

"Is it necessary to defend so well?"

Chu Ge got goosebumps and whispered to President Yu.

"It's necessary."

President Yu also explained in a low voice, "According to Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's experience, this kind of aura revival stimulates the crisis of snakes, insects, rats and ants to ravage the city, and the threat of snakes, insects, rats and ants themselves is not great, after all, how many people can be bitten to death by rats or poisonous snakes?" No matter how powerful the snakes, insects, rats and ants are, they are crushed by the torrent of steel, and there is nothing that cannot be crushed.

"However, snakes, insects, rats and ants themselves carry a large number of bacteria and viruses, and if they are stimulated by a high concentration of spiritual energy and give birth to various 'super viruses' or 'mutant bacteria', it is very likely that a plague will occur that will sweep the whole city, and at that time, millions of people in Lingshan City will be exposed to the blood of invisible demons, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Therefore, the combat center to deal with the underground threat this time needs to be so heavily guarded - there are several biochemical laboratories in it, which are studying mutant insects, trying to isolate various bacteria and viruses in their bodies, and developing targeted vaccines and specific drugs.

Chu Ge and Chairman Yu received triple disinfection at the entrance of the barracks.

First the potion shower, then the foam rinse, and finally the special radiographic scan, almost shaved their body hair, rubbed off a layer of skin, and it was done.

They changed into the white sterile gowns provided by the Raven Army, like two patients about to walk onto the operating table, so that they could enter the inside of the operations center.

Chu Ge looked around curiously, and found that the interior of the continuous building complex was wrapped with layers of plastic film everywhere, and like a watertight cabin at the bottom of the ship, it would be blocked by a layer of plastic film "hatch" every other section, and even the internal air circulation system was independent of each other and did not interfere with each other.

Think about it, with such a tight defense, even if a bacteria or virus leaks in one place, it will not affect more places.

With such a thoughtful arrangement, I don't know how much blood was exchanged for the lesson, thinking of this, Chu Ge couldn't help but shudder deeply.

The soldiers or staff members I saw along the way finally stopped wearing the creepy crow mask.

However, Chu Ge found that many of the soldiers' faces and bodies were covered with strange scars, not so much like injuries caused by knives, guns or bullets, but like severe burns and rot.

Even some soldiers' limbs have a certain degree of atrophy and mutation, and have to be assisted by metal joints and prosthetics.

Seeing the puzzled expression on his face, Chairman Yu quietly told Chu Ge that the scars on these soldiers were the result of the battle between humans and the plague.

Variants of the Ebola virus, super smallpox, xenogeneous flesh eaters, and leprosy bacilli that are 100 times more violent...... All kinds of viruses and bacteria, once rampantly launched an attack on human civilization, all relied on the fierce resistance of the "Raven Army", these iron-blooded warriors, to defend the splendid cities and countless ignorant people.

These deformed scars are the best medals, and they are well-deserved heroes.

Before coming, Chu Ge was full of confidence and wanted to use the principles of "kindness" and "peace" to persuade Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting.

But now, seeing the "medals" on the faces and bodies of these soldiers, he suddenly felt a little weak in his heart, and felt that he had thought about the problem simply.

In the face of these soldiers who spent their lives in a hundred battles and paid a tragic price in exchange for such a medal of glory, his "truths", including the humane gaze of the rat clan, seemed to be frivolous and worthless.

"Alright, I'll accompany you here."

Taken to a fork in the road by two soldiers, President Yu said, "I'll go and study the confession of the 'national teacher' first, and meet with experts in the field of viruses and animal psychology, you go to see Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, and we'll see you later." ”

"What?"

Chu Ge was a little flustered, "Sister Yu, won't you accompany me to see Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting?" ”

"Why, you don't have the confidence to convince him without me?" Chairman Yu said deliberately.

"Of course it's not ......," Chu Ge said stiffly.

"It's good if not."

Chairman Yu waved his hand, "Come on, I am optimistic about you, and I will definitely be able to use your sincerity, kindness and foresight to convince Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting!" ”

She patted her ass and slipped away.

Only Chu Ge was left alone, swallowing more than a dozen mouthfuls of saliva before coming to Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's office.

It didn't feel like the office of a determined predator.

It's like the lab of a doctor or scientist who is passionate about research.

All kinds of data, files and experimental records are piled up, and there is also a human model with lesions in all internal organs and a large number of experimental materials.

A tall, middle-aged man in a sterile black gown was sitting in a corner, his head down, intently observing the microscope.
