Chapter 40: The Pain That Can't Be Hidden

"By the way, Captain, you haven't told me yet, why didn't the elite team go to this mission?"

When the pickup truck drove out of Yangcheng, Su Tong asked Li Xiang like a curious baby.

"I don't know, the captain said that the elite team has other tasks, so this time it's all cleaned up and scouted by the ordinary team."

Li Xiang replied softly.

He is the captain of the seventh team, and the captain in his mouth is the captain of the seventh team, Cheng Meng. Only Cheng Meng can make him call the captain.

Zhou Yang began to think about where something happened in Yangcheng now, which could make several elite teams full of capable people unable to coordinate to clean up the epidemic variant in the west.

"No girl is watching."

The car drove out of Yangcheng, and there were some forests on both sides, and these natural beauties did not make Xu Yufeng feel happy, he just wanted to see beautiful women.

"Hey."

A car suddenly drove side by side next to the pickup truck, and the people in the car waved to Li Xiang and said hello.

"Hey."

Li Xiang responded.

"Who are they?"

Su Tong asked.

"In the fifth team, there are a pair of very powerful ability twins in the team, and I have worked with them before."

Li Xiang quickly explained.

Zhou Yang looked at the opposite window and said in his heart: "Twins of the capable?" It is said that there will be some buffs between the twins, and I don't know if this is true or not. ”

"Brother, let's go first."

"Hmm."

The other party said hello to Li Xiang, and then went straight over the pickup truck and drove along the road into the distance.

……

The journey in the car is boring, but time flies quickly.

When Zhou Yang came to the vicinity of the target this time, there were already about a dozen cars parked here. And to his surprise, the camp was all set up.

"You're from the Seventh Brigade? Welcome, find a place to stop the car, let's rest here for a while and discuss the battle plan. ”

As soon as he arrived at the camp, a very enthusiastic middle-aged man walked over and said to Zhou Yang and the others.

"I'm sorry, but our captain isn't here."

Zhou Yang looked behind him and didn't find Li Xiang's figure, then smiled apologetically at the middle-aged man, and then began to look around.

Not long after the camp was built, Zhou Yang could see that some people were cutting down some trees and building improvised walls, while others were planning their camp.

This sudden sense of familiarity made Zhou Yang feel as if he had seen the construction site of the previous time and space, and a group of people were busy running around.

Hearing Zhou Yang's words, the middle-aged man paused for a second, and then said: "Okay, you guys find a place to rest first, this time the matter is not simple, save your life." ”

"Thanks for the reminder."

Zhou Yang nodded and responded to the middle-aged man's kindness.

"It's so big here."

After the middle-aged man left, Su Tong jumped to Zhou Yang's side, looking around with curiosity.

"Well, if you go any further, you'll be not far from the desert."

The environment here is not familiar to Zhou Yang, but according to the marks on the map, this place is only one step away from the big desert where he appeared.

And this time, the signal of the large-scale epidemic variant was found in the desert.

"Really? I haven't seen the desert yet......"

Su Tong nodded, then squatted down to look at the flowers, and when she raised her head, she found that Zhou Yang had already walked away.

"Hope I don't touch that thing!"

Looking at the west, Zhou Yang's eyes flashed the picture of the past, where there was a tall giant, scorching all over his body, and his strength was strong.

Thinking that he had been hot-headed to challenge that thing, Zhou Yang felt a little unsure of what to say.

The strength of the giant, he still does not know.

Footsteps came from behind him.

Zhou Yang turned around, but found that what appeared behind him was an unexpected person, Xu Yufeng's brother, Xu Yutang.

"Ahead?"

Xu Yutang glanced back, and said briefly by the small river in front of him.

"Hmm."

Zhou Yang nodded as if he didn't understand.

The two of them came to the river, Xu Yutang first washed his face, and then said, "If I sacrifice, I hope you will take care of my younger brother at a convenient time." ”

"How can you say that?"

Zhou Yang knew who Xu Yutang was talking about, and he also knew that this taciturn man must have a bond in his heart.

But die......

It's a topic that feels rather distant.

"I've experienced this wave of pandemic variants. That's it, more than 10,000 of these! Instead of loitering, they have a command, and the battle begins to become organized. Together, we can't wipe out such a thing. ”

Xu Yutang, who was usually very silent, said a lot of words this time.

Ten thousand plague variants may not seem like a lot, but when they charge together in groups, things are completely different.

Xu Yutang experienced it, and it was in the year of the disaster.

That year, his city fell because of this, his parents died at the hands of the epidemic variants, and only he fled all the way to Yangcheng with his younger brother.

"It's not the same now as it was before!"

Zhou Yang did not accept Xu Yutang's commission, and the most important point was that he could not guarantee Xu Yufeng's safety.

"Huh?"

Xu Yutang was not surprised, but he was curious about Zhou Yang's words.

"I'm sure the last time you encountered these things, your heart must have been filled with panic and fear! But now, you have teammates, friends, and comrades-in-arms, and these solid backing may not be able to stop the frenzy of the epidemic! ”

Zhou Yang said to Xu Yutang with a smile, he actually didn't say one last word, that is, this time he was there!

The giants don't come out, even if there are thousands of epidemic variants, he is not afraid at all. What's more, although he has consumed all the blood crystals now, his strength has also been greatly improved.

He's not a hero.

But if he could help some humans change their original fate while devouring and evolving the Soul Devouring Ancient Tree, Zhou Yang would still be happy.

"But they're horrible."

Xu Yutang said word by word, although he joined the hunting corps and was already an experienced veteran, he had never taken it lightly in the face of the epidemic variant.

He has witnessed the scenes of countless people fighting against the anti-epidemic variant, only to be torn apart by the epidemic variant in the end. So after joining the hunting regiment, he also chose a relatively safe long-range attack.

"yes, they're scary!"

Regarding Xu Yutang's words, Zhou Yang did not refute them.

He didn't know what the world was like, but he didn't need to say anything more to force the human race, who was the overlord of the world, to the point where he had to retreat into the city.

Scary, of course.
