Chapter 44 The Military

When Lin Mo came to the temporary camp for survivors in Xinjing, he was slightly taken aback, because here, the scarlet vines all over the ground were actually in a dry state.

Only the fog remained as heavy and thick as ever.

As the previous team of twenty had said, the blood-red vines were crowded with dead streets, mostly panicked-looking survivors, who were not even as good as the survivors Lin Mo had seen in the Holy Inquisition, who at least had a non-existent god to believe.

In times like these, faith is often a source of motivation for people in despair.

Lin Mo believed that the Holy Inquisition was only afraid that he did not know how long he had been preparing for today, and that when the end times came, their huge structure and organization would surface, and with the support of powerful armed forces, they would inevitably become a powerful emerging force in the shortest possible time under the situation of global power collapse.

But that's not what Lin Mo can care about right now.

He is not a politician or a warlord.

Because of Mugu Yan, a genuine awakened person, Lin Mo and the others received the highest standard treatment when they came to the camp, and they were directly led to meet the supreme commander of this place and two other awakened people.

Lin Mo actually planned to go out of the city in the crowd, but because he came with Mugu Yan, he was also taken directly.

It was a temporary command post set up in an abandoned grocery store, the store was small, but it was crowded with officers of all ranks, and without the support of electronic information equipment, they spread out a paper map of Xinjing on the table, densely marked with special symbols.

The supreme commander here was a genuine divisional cadre, Yue Yuanwu, a man over fifty years old, with no military rank, only wearing a straight military uniform, with a hat on the edge of the table, his sideburns were already gray, but his eyes were as sharp as a leopard.

It's a doer.

Lin Mo made a judgment at a glance.

However, this is also inevitable, in this extreme environment, if it is not a real cold and hard person, how can it be possible to survive with such a large team.

The name Mugu Yan was a woman's name as soon as he heard it, so he only glanced at Lin Mo and stopped his gaze on the girl, and asked straight to the point: "Awakened people?" ”

The girl nodded.

"I'm sending a combat squad of twenty-three people to meet you." Yue Yuan Martial Dao, "It seems that they and those survivors are already dead. ”

"We have encountered a powerful awakened man. ”

Yue Yuanwu raised his eyebrows slightly, about twenty minutes ago, when the twenty-three people combat team lost contact with them, he was ready to lose all these people, but in his mind, these people died in the hands of that kind of mutant gray sparrow or among the blood-red vines, but he didn't expect that another awakened person would appear.

However...... In this environment, union is king, how can an awakened person take action against another awakened person?

Mu Guyan saw the division commander's doubts, and immediately told the previous situation one by one.

Yue Yuanwu only frowned after listening to the girl's description, he still couldn't understand the battle between the awakened people, and shook his head, in his opinion, as long as the awakened people who didn't play their cards according to reason didn't delay their next actions.

Therefore, Yue Yuanwu directly skipped this topic and introduced the awakened person on the right hand side to Mugu Yan.

That awakened man was a survivor, an awakened man about the same age as Lin Mo, named Yang Wenhan, a very delicate name.

And his ability is more weak, able to perceive people's emotional changes.

As for the other awakened person in this huge team, it was the division commander himself in front of them, his ability was much more practical, he had a body of steel, and he could have an indestructible body in an instant.

After a brief introduction, Yue Yuanwu directly omitted the greetings and went straight to the point: "You must know our original plan - that is, to gather the strength of the three awakened people to break through.

"But, now the plans have changed."

Lin Mo stood behind the girl, feeling quite embarrassed, because he stood in, no one paid attention to him at all, and the awakened person Yang Wenhan even threw an inexplicable look at him, as for the eyes of other people, it was even more subtle - probably what was this person doing here, and he was covered in blood.

Lin Mo was embarrassed here, Yue Yuanwu's words were still continuing, his voice was smooth and calm, and there was a strong persuasiveness: "We have discovered the fatal point of this creature that covers the whole city. ”

When he said this, Lin Mo was interested.

This was also his curiosity, according to his own inference, he believed that these scarlet vines were supposed to be a group of plant-type monsters, and at this moment, in the other party's words, it was everywhere that the monster was a whole.

Yue Yuanwu bought a pass at this time: "Have you looked at this dead vine?" ”

"Hmm." Makiya smoked his head down.

"Here we found and killed a nodal 'brain' wrapped in soft tissue, and the vine collapsed and died."

Lin Mo couldn't help frowning, feeling that this just proved that these vines were not whole, but independent individuals, but the life situation was probably not just plants.

But Yue Yuanwu's words continued: "At that time, we thought that the vines all over the city were controlled by such 'brains', so we sent multiple teams to look around for similar node bodies.

"Then we found the second 'brain' at a position of more than ten kilometers according to this, and we did not kill it, trying to study its structure."

Lin Mo felt disgusted when he thought about it, but the girl's expression changed slightly.

Yue Yuanwu said: "It 'committed suicide', but despite this, Yang Wenhan still intercepted the nerve signal at the last moment to transmit it to the depths of the city - emotional changes are generated by nerve impulses, and information transmission must also be nerve impulses." ”

Lin Mo glanced at the young man, the other party was showing a proud look, but he was a little amused in his heart - such a chicken ability can be used here can be regarded as a waste, right?

But Lin Mo forgot that the other party's ability was to detect emotional changes, and as soon as his funny thought rose, the other party's eyes turned over.

Lin Mo nodded at the other party and sneered.

Yang Wenhan snorted, slowly looked away, and landed on the girl in the field—since the girl walked in, his gaze had not been taken away.

Yue Yuanwu didn't pay attention to the brief glance between the two guys, he licked his dry lips, still immersed in his plan.

"Do you know the reflex arc? The vines are like afferent and penetrating nerves, and the 'brain' is both a receptor and an effector, and somewhere in the city, there must be a real nerve center that processes and regulates the whole city.

"As long as this nerve center is destroyed, this huge neural network will inevitably collapse, and at that time, these scarlet vines will naturally die like here."
