Chapter 25: The Third Task (3)

Chu Tianming threw two handfuls of firewood into the fire, and threw a piece of the thing that the team had brought to support the combustion, and after the flames jumped suddenly, they calmed down.

The firelight reflected the figures of the team members, taller than normal and slightly bloated armor, shadows elongated behind them.

When the mercenary team is forced to spend the night in the field, they will not take off their armor, which is more cumbersome to put on and unload, and second, if something suddenly happens, even if they can't react, it won't cause much damage.

Of course, this is when the level of the attack is very low, and if they encounter a fusion mutant monster, then they will have to fend for themselves.

Even in the last days, the fire is still necessary for survival in the wild, and although those beasts have mutated, the fear of fire has not yet degenerated. There are even some mutant beasts that are more sensitive to light sources and are afraid to avoid them.

The armor stands on the field, like a few giant robot monsters, and it can make people feel a sense of fear at first sight.

Chu Tianming was standing more than ten meters away from the fire, which was the edge of the fire, and most of his body was hidden in the darkness.

The night in the field was extremely quiet, except for the occasional sound of the wind blowing and the crackling of the fire.

There was no starlight in the sky, and a layer of smoke had shrouded the sky since the Great War, and even the moon was hazy. But this must not make people feel beautiful, but only increase the fear in people's hearts.

Near midnight, Chu Tianming added firewood to the fire, and just as he was about to walk back to his original position, he suddenly heard an extremely faint roar.

He didn't know how to describe the roar, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, rapid and short, as if it had been deliberately suppressed and squeezed out of its throat.

Chu Tianming was excited, in the middle of the night in this unobstructed field, it was not a good thing to hear this kind of roar.

Jiang Yuan slept until midnight, and suddenly felt that someone had stabbed him, and suddenly woke up with a trembling spirit, and then saw Chu Tianming standing in front of him, holding up a thick armored arm, and stretching out a finger to put on his lips.

Chu Tianming looked a little nervous, which made him feel nervous, and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation?" ”

"Listen." Chu Tianming said two words briefly.

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then closed his mouth and paid attention to the movements around him. At this moment, the kind of roar that Chu Tianming had heard before sounded again, and it still sounded so weird.

"What is this?" Jiang Yuan muttered.

Chu Tianming shook his head, no one could answer this kind of question, after all, there was no owner who saw the screaming with his own eyes.

"It looks like a wolf." The old skin next to him suddenly spoke, and the whispered conversation between Chu Tianming and the two woke him up.

"Wolves?" Chu Tianming was a little surprised, "Then why is it such a scream?" ”

Lao Pi listened attentively again, and the cry had not stopped, and it came and went, and then said: "After the wolf mutated, the voice changed slightly, but such a cry is really rare, and they are deliberately suppressing their voices. ”

Chu Tianming opened his mouth, and he was a little surprised in his heart, a group of mutant wolves unfortunately suppressed their own howls, what is the reason for this?

"If I'm not mistaken, there's definitely a big guy there." Chu Tianming pointed in the direction where the voice came from.

"I really don't know if it's good news or bad news." Jiang Yuan smiled bitterly, it seems that this seemingly easy task still has a lot of obstacles.

Wolves are the last thing people want to encounter, whether before or after the war, encountering wolves is basically a heavy loss.

"But it doesn't sound very close, do you want to go and see it?" Chu Tianming looked in that direction.

"Forget it now, night is their time, if they don't come to attack us, we don't need to provoke them now." Jiang Yuan said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow at dawn." Okay, you come and rest for a while, I'll keep vigil. ”

Chu Tianming nodded, and when Jiang Yuan left his position, Chu Tianming walked over and stood in that position, still forming a circle around the fire.

The short hours passed quickly, and as soon as the sky turned white, Chu Tianming and Lao Pi woke up.

According to the pre-war seasons and months, it should be late autumn now. The temperature in the early morning was a little cold, and there was a thin layer of hoarfrost attached to the armor.

However, this situation becomes disappear after the sun rises, and even in the cold winter wax moon, the temperature is still very high during the day.

Jiang Yuan extinguished the fire and said, "They screamed for most of the night and didn't stop until two hours ago. ”

"Then it looks like we've come to the right place." "There should be a nest in front of it, which is the habitat of that big guy." ”

Jiang Yuan nodded, looked back at the team members who woke up and shouted, "Hurry up and fill your stomach, boys!" We've got something to do today! ”

Once the sun had fully risen, the Black Wolf Squad set off towards the place where the sound had come from last night, and if they were lucky, they could have completed the task today.

Lao Pi was still scouting in front, but this time the distance between him and the team was longer.

From last night's shouting, Lao Pi judged that the distance between the team and the target location should be about two kilometers. This distance doesn't take them long.

Half an hour later, Lao Pi stopped and hid behind a dirt slope. Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and everyone in the team immediately increased their speed and moved closer to Lao Pi.

"It should be almost." Lao Pi waited until Jiang Yuan arrived and said, "The distance should be about the same, but we still need to find it ourselves." ”

Jiang Yuan nodded, still according to the previous grouping, and began to search in this area.

The craters on the ground in this area have increased suddenly, forcing the team members to be more careful. Judging by the craters scattered throughout the ground, this area must have experienced fierce battles at one time.

The crater here is larger and deeper than elsewhere. And some of the craters were not just blown up by a bomb, but were blown up many times.

The craters are almost one after the other, and the interior is also cratered. The team searched the rim of the craters, but after several hours, they found nothing.

Sun Li was the most breathless in the team, and couldn't help shouting: "What the hell is going on, you can't find a mistake, right?" ”

"No way, I believe Lao Pi, he has many years of experience, it is impossible to make a mistake in judging this kind of thing." Jiang Yuan glared at Sun Li and said.

was glared at by the captain, Sun Li suddenly felt that his heart was weak, he didn't dare to look at the captain's eyes again, lowered his head and didn't dare to speak again.

Chu Tianming also echoed: "There should be nothing wrong, this is the place where the voice comes out after doing it." And judging from the current situation, the big guy must be around here, we can't find any traces of the activities of those mutant beasts, we can only say that their intelligence is relatively high, and they know how to eliminate their own traces. ”

"Maybe it's the big guy." "Even wolves are unlikely to have eliminated their traces so thoroughly. ”

"I think it's a waste of time for us to look for it any longer, so why don't we find a relatively safe place to wait for the rabbit?" Chu Tianming suggested.

Jiang Yuan felt that it was feasible, and Lao Pi also nodded, but this hiding place has become the top priority of the team's mission now.
