Chapter 019: The Invisible Attacker

Regardless of whether he agreed or not, I shouted for the medics, and two more fighters to cover on both sides, and I raised my pistol and slowly walked over to the fallen warrior.

The surroundings were too dark, although there were many tactical spotlights, they could only shine to a limited area, Zhao Jinfu was not at ease, afraid that there would be an ambush around, so he ordered the soldiers to shoot a flare.

All around us was illuminated by a white light, and I was once again struck by what lay ahead.

It turned out that there were not only two fighters in front of them, but a series of upside downs. It's just that there is some distance between them, as if they are pulling a straight line on the ground with their bodies.

Our previous three squads were only equipped with three flares, and the rest were left in the carts outside the forest, so now we use one less shot.

Taking advantage of the light in the sky, I ran to the two warriors closest to me.

I crouched down to feel the pulse of a soldier when the medic shouted, "Don't touch him!" ”。 The cold cry startled me, and I immediately retracted my hand like an electric shock.

The medics' faces changed dramatically, and they pointed to the soldiers on the ground with their hands and said, "Look at their faces! ”

The light of the flares was still shining in the sky, and I looked at the faces of the two warriors, and my heart "groaned" again.

Both warriors' faces were a horrible blood-red, as if they had been smeared with blood, but I could tell that the blood-red was in the warrior's subcutaneous tissue.

"How so? What causes this? I asked the paramedics.

The medic quickly put on rubber gloves and handed me a pair as well, shaking only his head at my question.

Through the flares, Zhao Jinfu didn't notice that there were other people around, and hurried over.

I shouted to everyone not to touch the people who fell to the ground, Zhao Jinfu was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked the other fighters to form a cordon and surround us in the middle, and then he walked to us himself.

The medic put on his gloves before carefully examining the two soldiers, and Zhao Jinfu and I were staring at him and waiting for the results of his examination.

As the medics' hands left the warriors, they shook their heads at us in grief and helplessness.

These two fighters are dead!

I slammed my fist to the ground in anger and yelled "Bastard!" ”。

Zhao Jinfu's face was cold, and he asked the medical guards, "What kind of injuries have they suffered?" Why is the face red like this? ”

The paramedic replied, "I don't know yet, it's the first time I've encountered this situation, and if I want to know why they are like this, I need to examine the body further." Possibly, possibly, their remains will also be destroyed. ”

I asked, "Could this be a symptom of poisoning?" ”

The medic couldn't be sure, so he could only answer me: "Possibly!" ”

"What the is going on?" I shouted out a little uncontrollably: "Who used such despicable means to harm them, so that Lao Tzu caught and shot him!" ”

Zhao Jinfu called two soldiers and asked them to put on gloves and go to the front to check if there were any living people, and called two soldiers to be in charge of protection, and immediately fired a warning shot when they found the situation.

At this time, all of us fell into grief, I didn't expect such a big change to happen in the blink of an eye, and the young men who were all alive and kicking up a day ago are now all inexplicably falling here.

My nose was sore, my eyes were astringent, and I couldn't accept it the first time I saw a comrade-in-arms sacrificed in front of my eyes. Uncontrollable tears and about to run out, I stood up and took a few quick steps to the side, facing the darkness, clenching my fists tightly to control my emotions.

There were other fighters behind me, and I didn't want my loss of control to affect them, although I had already seen a few fighters shed tears.

Zhao Jinfu asked the paramedics to examine the bodies and make sure to find out the reason for their death. Then he quietly walked up behind me, said nothing, and patted me on the shoulder.

Soon, the soldiers who went to check came back, their expressions were very solemn, and they shook their heads at Zhao Jinfu and me, and a team of soldiers were all killed, and they all died in the same condition. In the end, they also brought an even more unfortunate news, they also found the body of the policeman Lao Qian at the front.

I quickly restrained my grief, turned to incomparably angry, and I said to Zhao Jinfu: "Old Zhao, I will lead a team of people to chase, the enemy will definitely not be able to run far in such a short time, I will definitely capture them back." ”

Zhao Jinfu persuaded me: "You calm down! We don't know what just happened, even if it's human, we need to know how they did it. Just now, the shooting here was like a war, but we didn't find a single corpse of an outsider, which shows that the enemy is not simple. What I'm most worried about now is how the enemy will make the entire team of people get hit, and if I don't figure this out, it will be in vain to die if I catch it. ”

Lao Zhao is right! I'm going to regain my composure now, I'm going to find out the enemy's flaws. The most important thing I should do now is to use my analytical skills to find clues for everyone.

However, I pondered what Zhao Jinfu said just now, and asked him: "Listening to the meaning of your words, do you suspect that this incident may not be caused by man?" ”

"I have this suspicion!" Zhao Jinfu said: "Do you remember those things we found in the underground just now? If you're right, those are the eggs of some kind of animal, maybe there's something in this place that we don't know exists. ”

Glancing back at the medical soldiers who were still examining the corpses, Zhao Jinfu said to me again: "I personally brought out these soldiers, and I have no doubt about their combat ability, but don't you think it's strange that they couldn't kill the enemy with their skills?" ”

As I gradually regained my composure, my mind began to become more flexible, and I thought back to what I had seen and began to piece it together in an effort to reconstruct what had happened here.

Up to now, a series of mysteries such as missing travelers from all over the world, primeval forests with black hearts, strange directional magnetic fields, mysterious giant round pits, countless white eggs, a guide who was killed by a strange disease, dozens of strangely dead warriors, and mysterious attackers have passed through my mind as quickly as a movie.

I knew that there must be some kind of connection between these events, and I tried to think about it, and the whole person stood there motionless like an old monk in a fixed place.

At this time, the medical soldier beckoned Zhao Jinfu, and when he saw that I was deep in thought, he did not disturb me and walked over alone.

The medical guards had already cleaned the clothes of the sacrificed soldiers, and a trace of shock flashed in Zhao Jinfu's eyes. The warrior's whole body was covered in blood red, and there were some signs of swelling, and the whole person was a circle larger than usual. After a while, there was still some yellowish-white thick liquid flowing out of the corpse's seven orifices, and the smell was extremely unpleasant.

Zhao Jinfu frowned and asked, "Did you check out anything?" Is it poisoning? If there's a danger of air spreading, I'll tell everyone to evacuate at once. ”

The medical soldier took off his mask and said to Zhao Jinfu: "Company commander, rest assured, this is indeed a poisoning phenomenon, but it will not be transmitted through the air." ”

Zhao Jinfu breathed a sigh of relief, his biggest fear was that the enemy was using a spreading poison gas attack, which would be very dangerous for these soldiers who did not wear gas masks.

At this time, the medical soldier turned the corpse over, pointed to a place on the back of the waist and said to Zhao Jinfu: "Company commander, I suspect that this is the cause of their poisoning." ”

Zhao Jinfu turned on his flashlight, slowly squatted down and looked closer at the place pointed by the medical guard, only to find that there was a trace like a pinhole. It's just that now the corpse is inexplicably swollen, and it's really not easy to find if you look for it carefully.

The medician turned the other corpse next to him around, pointed to a hole in the clothes on his back and said to Zhao Jinfu: "This is the same situation!" ”

"How is this possible?" Zhao Jinfu immediately questioned, "Our fighters are very vigilant, how can they allow the enemy to approach the injection of poison?" If it is said that the other party used a long-range injection firearm, it can't be so many people attacked at the same time, right? It can't be, absolutely impossible! ”

The medical soldier said: "Company commander, this is not caused by an ordinary syringe, after an ordinary syringe is pierced into the human body and then pulled out, the human body will soon repair itself, and the eye of the needle will not be visible at all." In my experience, to be able to cause such a noticeable hole scar, the needle injected must be at least this big! As he spoke, the medic held out his little thumb.

Zhao Jinfu was very surprised by this conclusion, according to the medical soldiers, the needle that pierced the body of these soldiers and injected poison was not a few times thicker than the large cone!

"It's not a man-made wound, it's probably the tentacles of some kind of animal!" At this time, I walked over from the side and said a word to Zhao Jinfu.

"Be more detailed!" Zhao Jinfu said to me with a very solemn expression.

I had just thought through all the problems encountered in this operation, and although there were still some mysteries to which I did not know the answers, some speculations had already appeared in my mind.

First of all, the missing travelers, I said to Zhao Jinfu: "Now I can be sure of one thing, this team of missing travelers is by no means ordinary tourists, some of them must have been the destination from the beginning here, and further speculation, I think that someone's target is the pointing magnetic field that you said Lao Zhao." I'm not sure how many people are coming here, and I don't know what kind of material is emitting this strange magnetic field. But there is no doubt that it was a premeditated operation! ”

Zhao Jinfu nodded after listening, and he agreed with this inference.

Then there is this mysterious round pit, and I continued: "Even if we have a very rapid technological development today, there are still many mysterious and unknown areas on this earth, and I believe that the black heart belongs to such an area. Locals have never set foot here for generations, and there must be a reason behind it. Maybe they couldn't come here, maybe their ancestors suffered here, so they left a warning to keep future generations away from this place. And my speculation is that there must be some mysterious force in this unknown realm that has been able to be isolated from the world for so long. ”

Zhao Jinfu nodded again, his thoughts coincided with mine.

I looked up at the sky and said, "Just as the clouds block out the sunlight here, this realm is dominated by a mystical force that prohibits foreign intruders, so I feel that the eggs we found may be the guardians of this realm." When no outsiders enter, they sleep underground, dormant, and in the event of a situation that endangers them, they wake up from their slumber and attack the intruders. ”
