"Jingle bells." A mobile phone ringtone woke up everyone in cultivation, Bai Yang picked up the phone and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number, and after answering, a pleasant and crisp female voice came from there: "Bai Yang, are you up, I'm almost downstairs in your apartment." ”

Bai Yang was stunned for a few seconds, and then came back to his senses, no wonder this voice was a little familiar, it turned out to be a call from Liu Yuting, thinking that it should be the contact information obtained from Chief Yan.

"Liu Da Mei is early, are you going to ask me out early in the morning, I'm really a little flattered."

"Less nonsense, pack up, take that friend of yours, and we'll go somewhere."

"Well, I'll come down later."

hung up the phone, Bai Yang called the ninth master, the two of them washed up casually, and then instructed Yu Lei to go out.

After going downstairs, there was already a military SUV parked under the apartment building, and a swarthy head poked out of the driver's seat to greet Topol.

"Brother Topol, it's early." Wei Dabao showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and his smile was honest and cute.

"Brother Da Bao is early." Poplar also responded with a smile, thinking that this brother seemed harmless to humans and animals, and he almost killed himself yesterday.

After getting into the car, Bai Yang found that Liu Yuting in the passenger seat was holding her cheeks and didn't know what she was thinking.

As the Ninth Master moved his fat body into the car, Bai Yang began to introduce a few people.

"Chen Jiu, nicknamed Ninth Master."

"Wei Dabao."

The two who originally thought they would run into a spark made the briefest self-introduction in the world.

Then Bai Yang saw the ninth master's eyes shining and stretched out his head and stared straight at Liu Yuting and smirked, like a second fool who saw a flower girl for the first time.

Liu Yuting didn't pay much attention to it, just nodded at him lightly, indicating that she knew.

Bai Yang had no choice but to pinch Jiu Ye's thigh, signaling him not to embarrass himself, Jiu Ye put away the idiot's smirk, scratched his head in embarrassment and sat up straight.

"Well, where are we going now?" Poplar tried to open his mouth to break the dilemma in front of him.

"You'll know when you get there." Liu Yuting said lightly, as indifferent as when they first met yesterday.

Bai Yang nodded helplessly, thinking that this girl was really a little cold from the bottom of her bones.

Turning his head to look at the ninth master, Bai Yang found that he was talking to him, but he didn't make a sound, but from the shape of his mouth, he could tell that he was saying the words "I can't stand it", which caused Bai Yang to laugh dumbly.

Then Wei Dabao started the car and drove out of the residential area, heading towards Baiyang's unknown destination.

"Have you figured out the name of the squad?" Soon after going on the road, Liu Yuting asked, and this sentence was naturally asked to Baiyang.

"Thunder Squad, what do you think?" But before he could speak, the ninth master had already answered, this was the temporary task that Bai Yang explained to him last night, and they each thought of a name and then came together to touch it.

"Why don't you call the minesweeper team, it's very dirty." Liu Yuting didn't reply to the veto, which caused Wei Dabao, who was driving, to pat the steering wheel a few times and laugh.

The Ninth Master looked at Bai Yang with some pity, and his aggrieved little eyes revealed a look of being about to close himself.

Bai Yangqiang held back a smile and patted him on the shoulder, comforting and said, "I think it's good, of course, we can also see if there is a more suitable one." ”

"I think it's okay too." Wei Dabao, who suppressed his laughter, also agreed.

"Let's take a look at another one." Liu Yuting said without thinking.

"How's it going, Guardian?" Poplar said the name of his well-thought-out squad, firstly, to protect the people around him, and secondly, to pay tribute to the Ancestor, the lonely guardian who had guarded the human race of the earth for tens of thousands of years.

Everyone was silent for a moment, as if they were thinking, and then Liu Yuting spoke first: "Yes, I think it's okay." ”

"Agreed." Wei Dabao raised his hand.

The ninth master naturally had no opinion, and everyone hit it off.

But no one expected that the name of the team randomly set by the four of them today would become famous all over the world and be admired by the world in the near future.

After that, several people decided on the candidate for the captain, and the strength was respected, so naturally there was no doubt that it was Poplar, and everyone was unanimous.

The vice captain is Liu Yuting, whose strength is only below Baiyang, and she is also well-deserved.

However, the ninth master also complained to Bai Yang later, why Bai Yang is stronger, but today Liu Yuting is more powerful, Bai Yang smiled indifferently and replied to him:

"Two people live a life, a woman is in charge of small things, and a man is in charge of big things, that's right."

Jiu Ye couldn't help but give a thumbs up after hearing this.

Twenty minutes later, the car pulled into a sports complex in the city, which Poplar had seen a few celebrity concerts before and was familiar with.

Now that it has been requisitioned as an official temporary site, there are occasional soldiers running in a queue in the open space outside the stadium, but there are not many of them, and the main force of the army should not be stationed here.

Since it is not the army stationed, there is only one possibility, and Poplar already has a guess in his heart.

"Remember what you mentioned about recruiting mutants?" Liu Yuting asked.

Sure enough, Poplar nodded, and also verified the guess in his heart.

"They will come here after applying at various registration points in the city."

"How many people are there?" Poplar asked the question of his greatest concern.

"There are about 2,200 people at the moment."

"So little?" Bai Yang was a little surprised, according to his estimate, based on the combined population of 5 million in several large regions of the city, and then multiplied by the probability of mutants, it is more than 3,000 to say the least.

And Poplar also heard the ancestor say that the world's precise mutated population is close to 5.3 million, and the number of global declarations officially announced yesterday is 3.5 million, with an average declaration ratio of 66%, so the city's declaration ratio is much lower than the average.

"We think so too." Liu Yuting nodded, obviously disappointed in her eyes.

"Any other data?" Poplar continued to ask.

"Most of the mutants are male, accounting for 80%, and the age distribution is young, the specific range is 15-38 years old, but most of them are concentrated between 20-30 years old, accounting for 85%" Liu Yuting replied fluently.

"It's not evenly distributed, it seems to have a clear direction." Poplar saw the problem at a glance.

"Jiang Lao said the same thing, and he has a very scary guess."

"He suspects it's artificial?" Poplar said.

"Yes, if it's natural selection, it's too much of a coincidence." Liu Yuting looked at Poplar, but she didn't expect Poplar to grasp the problem so quickly, and there was a different look in her eyes.

Of course, Poplar knows that this is man-made, and it must have something to do with the ancestor, in order to pull out the seedlings for the human race, this old guy is really painstaking.

Thinking about it, I felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at it all the time, and Bai Yang also inadvertently turned his head, and then looked at Liu Yuting with each other, and after a few seconds of staring at each other, the two quickly retracted their gaze like an electric shock.

At that moment, Poplar only felt his heart beating, and he couldn't help but think of the wonderful scene yesterday when he held a beautiful woman in his arms and carefully looked at it.

"Ahem." The Ninth Master suddenly coughed dryly twice, pulling Poplar back to reality, and then looked at Poplar with some ambiguous expressions, and looked at him with goosebumps.

Yes, with an old fritter like Jiuye, how could he not see the difference between the two.

"And where are they now?" Poplar continued to inquire as if nothing had happened.

"At this time, they should all be assembled on the training ground in the center of the stadium, go over and see, Yan Lao and they should all arrive."

Bai Yang nodded, with his sensitive hearing, he had already noticed the faint human voice in the stadium, and he asked just now to hide his embarrassment.

The crowd followed Liu Yuting and continued to walk towards the huge stadium building not far away, and soon after they went up one of the stairs and entered the rostrum's range through Gate 1.

As soon as I entered the rostrum, there was a burst of noise in front of me, and when I looked down, there were dense figures, crowded with people, so lively. Directly in front of the crowd stood a huge screen at this time, which gave Poplar the feeling that he was watching another concert.

And there were already several figures standing in front of the rostrum, and they were several bigwigs of Chief Yan, as well as several officers in military uniforms and with stars on their shoulders that Bai Yang had never seen.

After the four of them appeared, the three elders took the initiative to greet them regardless of their identities, causing several other officers to be stunned for a while, and the ninth master on the side was also stunned when he saw this, and hurriedly nodded with several bigwigs.

Jiang Lao smiled and directly pulled Bai Yang aside, patted Bai Yang's shoulder and said mysteriously: "Bai Yang, I'll show you a surprise later." ”

"What's the surprise, Jiang Lao?" Aspen is somewhat unclear.

"You'll know later, and it's a surprise from this girl Yuting." Jiang Lao pointed to Liu Yuting, who was walking this way not far away, and said.

"Elder Jiang, don't talk nonsense, what is the surprise I sent, I have nothing to do with Poplar at all, just for the sake of the overall situation." Liu Yuting said a little coquettishly at this time.

"Jiang Lao, what does this mean, could it be that Yuting wants to be a person for the sake of the overall situation, cough, and a promise to be a person, how can I be?"

"What do you want?" Liu Yuting said angrily.

"What you just said is easy to misunderstand." Poplar pretended to be innocent.

"Okay boy, don't always think about taking advantage of other girls, there will be a long time in the future, and slowly cultivate feelings." Jiang is still old and spicy, and he can see through Poplar's tricks at a glance, and he also echoes and jokes.

"Yes, you're always right, let's get down to business now." Poplar pretended to be serious again.

Liu Yuting on the side saw that the old and the young were actually being fake and serious and ridiculing in front of her, and she was so angry that she stomped her feet, but she was helpless and choked speechlessly.
