The next day, Zhou Yang woke up and found Li Xiang sitting on the sofa with a solemn face.

There was also a stack of materials on the coffee table in the stronghold, and Li Xiang had been frowning, his pupils were not focused, and he was obviously pondering.

Hearing the sound of the side door opening, Li Xiang's gaze finally became focused, and he looked at Zhou Yang, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What's the matter?"

Zhou Yang sat opposite Li Xiang, picked up the kettle and poured himself a glass of water, and asked Li Xiang at the same time.

"Last night's urgent notice, several elite squads on special missions had an accident."

Holding his forehead, Li Xiang replied helplessly.

"Elite Squad?"

Zhou Yang blinked, lowered his head and pondered. Although the brood extermination operation was a complete success, there was a question in everyone's minds.

That's the representative of Yangcheng's combat power, where did the elite squad of the hunting corps go? Why don't they protect Yang City?

The question has not been resolved, and within a few days, Zhou Yang heard such news in a blink of an eye.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Yang asked again, before the last mission, Li Xiang said that the elite team had a special mission, but now it seems that it is not a word to deal with.

But this is even more curious.

What kind of mission would make the elite team rather go out in full, and let the brood that might destroy Yang City go unattended to carry out such a mission.

Could it be ......

Zhou Yang thought of a possibility.

That is, in the eyes of the lord and the elite squad and the captains of the corps, the special tasks performed by the elite squad are far greater than the threat of the brood.

"See for yourself."

Li Xiang looked at the documents on the table.

Zhou Yang's strength is undoubted, even he can't predict what level Zhou Yang is currently at, and Li Xiang doesn't feel the need to hide this kind of secret information from Zhou Yang.

"What a general word."

After reading the document carefully, Zhou Yang found that he didn't understand anything.

This document only says that several elite squads have failed in battle and are now being chased and strangled by a large group of mutants, but the specific details are not mentioned at all.

"That's what we get. The specific people didn't say, we didn't know, and we didn't dare to ask. But there's a morning meeting in a while, do you want to come with me? ”

Li Xiang had a headache at this point, the information issued by the lord's mansion was too general, and the specific details were vague, which made people confused.

For the meeting, Zhou Yang was not interested in it at all.

He said slowly to Li Xiang: "It's a captain-level figure like you who will go in the morning, I'm better resting here." ”

"Alas, the last time it hadn't stopped for two days, and this time it happened again. After three quiet years, is the disaster going to happen again? ”

Li Xiang sighed.

Things have happened one after another lately, from the increase in the number of plague variants, to the monsters that later appeared in the village, to the brood and now......

He felt that this period of time had been really eventful.

"It shouldn't be that bad, relax."

Zhou Yang comforted Li Xiang, he had not experienced the apocalyptic scene that everyone had experienced, but from the words in the book, Zhou Yang also understood the horror.

At that time, almost everyone thought that the end had come! This is the end of the era of mankind.

"There's no way, the pressure is too great, it's impossible to be relieved, just wait for the morning meeting to come back and fight the landlord with them."

Li Xiang picked up the document and read it carefully again.

Zhou Yang on the opposite side was sitting comfortably on the sofa, looking at the not very beautiful scenery outside the window.

On Yangcheng's side, Zhou Yang no longer felt too much threat, so even the motivation to improve his strength was also sluggish.

He even wanted to go down like this, raise cats and teasing dogs in this small town, and spend his whole life.

"I'm really not a hero."

Zhou Yang muttered that people are either trying to upgrade to protect the country or working hard to eliminate the final boss.

As for him, he actually just worked a little harder, and then he wanted to spend the rest of his life in such a quiet atmosphere.

"What did you say?"

Li Xiang also heard Zhou Yang's muttering, but he didn't hear it clearly.

"It's nothing, I just feel uneasy lately."

Zhou Yang put down the water glass in his hand and explained to Li Xiang. He didn't know why, he was just to join the hunting team to fight monsters, but he encountered one problem after another.

"yes."

Li Xiang nodded, not feeling abnormal at all.

Zhou Yang over there breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at the clock and said to Li Xiang: "It's almost time, you should go to the morning meeting." ”

"Well, then I'll go first."

Li Xiang picked up the papers, sorted out the meter by the mirror by the door, and then opened the door and walked out.

Morning meetings are a tradition in Yangcheng.

The seven brigades and forty-nine squads under the hunting brigade have to participate in the daily morning meeting as long as the team is currently in Yangcheng.

So sometimes in order to avoid the morning meeting, Li Xiang will lead the team out to do tasks before the morning meeting.

This is what Zhou Yang learned from the mouths of the tiger and Xu Yutang.

"Morning, Brother Zhou."

Not long after Li Xiang left, Xu Yufeng, who was yawning, walked in through the side door.

"Early."

After entering the door, Xu Yufeng rubbed his eyes, said hello to Zhou Yang, and then walked to the toilet in the distance.

Zhou Yang didn't care.

When he lowered his head and was about to pick up the water cup, he found that a page of Li Xiang's documents had fallen on the coffee table.

He had read all these documents just now, and he was not interested in reading them again. But it was those few small words that stood upside down that attracted his attention.

"The elite squad has encountered a mortal threat, two captains have been killed, and more than a dozen elites have been killed, so I specially request the support of the lord."

This was a word that Zhou Yang had seen cursoryly before, but now that he read it carefully, it made Zhou Yang feel that something was wrong.

He didn't know what level the captain of the elite squad was, he had only seen the vice captain of one of the teams, but the captain was stronger than the vice captain.

Even in the face of the brood, the elite team can be annihilated in one fell swoop, but at least it will not be a problem to retreat with the whole body.

Now, from this document, he saw the death of the elite squad.

He suddenly felt,

The crisis faced by Yangcheng this time does not seem to have passed. In this vague document, great danger has been revealed.

Suzerain......

What exactly are you hiding?

Zhou Yang naturally couldn't get an answer to this question. He can only make his own guesses based on limited information, and he does not even know whether this guess is close to the truth.

……

In the continuous mountains, a loud shout came:

"Die!"

Countless explosions appeared in an instant, and countless stones fell from the sky, smashing the mutants below.

"If this continues...... We're afraid we won't last a day. ”

A voice full of worry appeared.
