January 15, 2071 1:40 a.m. -- Shariz Star 017 Base -- Volunteer Supply Office --

"Uncle, give me two base 8.5mm armor-piercing bullets."

"Okay, no problem."

Pressing the bullets into the empty magazine one after another, Mark raised his head a little boredly, looking at the deep starry sky, he sighed a little. In this day and age, bullets would have been able to fill themselves into magazines long ago, but Mark didn't do that. The reason is simple, there is nothing to do.

As expected by the General Command, after entering the Polar Circle, the Zerg's ground and underground coordinated attacks could no longer be carried out. After launching several attacks on the southernmost 020 base and being defeated, the Zerg, who suffered a big loss, temporarily stopped attacking the northern base, after all, the air supremacy is still in the hands of humans, unless the new brain worm is a fool, otherwise continuing to attack will only cause them heavy casualties. This is still the northern hemisphere is in a polar night state, and the temperature is polar, otherwise humans may retreat above the 020 base. And Antarctica, because it is in a polar daylight state, perhaps

"Hey! Mark, you're here, I've finally found you. Kanazawa's voice suddenly appeared behind him, and Mark, who was thinking, was startled, and pulled out his "Six-Five" pistol and pointed it behind him.

"Uh-" Grabbed and pointed to his nose, Kanazawa instantly raised his hands, after all, training was mainly to train against the Zerg, and in the face of humans using firearms, Kanazawa made a reaction that an ordinary person should have.

"I'll go, Kanazawa, you're too bad, just surrender." Realizing that he was overreacting, Mark put away his gun, laughed and patted Kanazawa on the shoulder.

"Ahem, that's what people do. Don't laugh, there's something important coming to you. The volunteers around him were laughing, and Kanazawa felt that he couldn't hold his face, so he pulled Mark out of the supply area.

"What's important?" Out of the supply station, Mark put away his "Six-Five" pistol, he had actually reacted the moment he turned around just now, so the safety of the "Six-Five" pistol was not opened.

Kanazawa looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that there was no one, he handed a paper letter to Mark with an extremely solemn expression. "Mark, just now the captain told me that twelve minutes ago, the main defense force of the Antarctic base was defeated at Langdang Mountain, and all the bases outside the main base of Antarctica fell. The remnants of the defenders retreated to the main base, and the Zerg had already blocked the water surrounding it, and it was possible that the southern hemisphere of Shariz would be lost."

"The Wandering Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Zerg need at least five million troops to break through there, what about the 'Prism'?" Didn't Prism attack those zergs? Holding the paper letter tightly, Mark was a little skeptical of the news.

"Mark, I don't know about this, open that letter, it has the answer you want. The captain wants us to assemble, there may be a new operation, I must go over first, you can continue to resupply. ”

Holding Kanazawa, Mark asked a little puzzled, "Since it's a gathering, why don't you let me go?" ”

Closing the armor, Kanazawa did not look back, "It's the captain's order, you don't have to participate in the assembly, you have a more important task." ”

It wasn't until this moment that Mark suddenly woke up. "Tell everyone to take care and I'll be fine."

"Well, we all believe in you."

Kanazawa left, Mark stood there for a long time and did not leave, the radio of the base was already informing the whole army to assemble, and many volunteers in the supply department had rushed to the assembly place of their team, and at the gate of the huge supply office, only Mark was left alone.

With a sigh, Marco opened the letter anyway, and used to let him read the name of the letter writer directly, but when he saw the name of the letter writer, his heart seemed to skip half a beat.

"General James" quickly scanned the letter, and Mark fell into deep thought. General James wrote very clearly in his letter that he had to "see" to connect with other "perceivers", or else

General James' meaning is clear, if the Leviathan is not destroyed, no more than a tenth of Sharitz will be able to escape, and this important nuclear bomb source will also fall into the hands of the Zerg. Mark is caught in a contradiction and has been locked in, which ultimately comes down to blaming himself for reminding the military that the identity of the "perceiver" is known and will not end well.

Just as Mark was struggling, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him. "Young man, what are you hesitating about?"

"Captain?!" Mark was stunned at this moment, shouldn't Lao Liu be assembling the team, how could it be

"Mark, I'm sure you've already made your choice, and if you hadn't told me at Base 027, I wouldn't have known about Leviathan. The fate of the entire planet of Shariz is at stake, you just have to tell me, go or not, and I will take care of the rest for you. As soon as Lao Liu came up, he went straight to the point, letting Mark know the urgency of the matter, and no longer hesitated, Mark nodded at Lao Liu.

"Come with me." Closing the armor, Lao Liu walked straight to the parking compartment of the base, where there were two "Maradas" waiting for them.

Without any further hesitation, Mark closed his armor and quickly followed, setting the armor to auto-follow mode, and Mark closed his eyes and entered the state of "looking". Time waits for no one, hurry up now, maybe you won't be in such a hurry later. Mark diverged his thoughts, and at this time, as long as the "sensitizer" entered the "looking" state in Sharitz, Mark could immediately spot him.

Apron --

"Mark, we're here."

"Well, I sensed the brainwaves of my two companions" Slowly exiting from the "looking" state, Mark found himself on the tarmac of Base 017. And a Marine officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel was sitting at the door of a "Malada" at this time, looking at Mark.

"Lieutenant Colonel Li Jing, hello."

"Sergeant Liu Bocheng, hello."

Lao Liu, who was walking in front, saluted him, and Lieutenant Colonel Li Jing saluted back, and then the two moved their eyes to Mark. Mark, who had just retired from the state of "looking", was still a little confused, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and he couldn't help but get nervous when he found that Lao Liu and Liu were staring at him.

"Lieutenant Colonel!" At this time, Mark remembered that he was still an ordinary soldier, and immediately saluted Lieutenant Colonel Li Jing.

Lieutenant Colonel Li Jing waved his hand and motioned for Mark to put his hand down, "Warrant officer, let's not talk about this, I just need to know if you can complete the task." ”

"I've found two companions, but how do you want me to believe that the military won't take us into the lab after the mission is over." Mark's armor was already half-activated at this point, and if he didn't say a word, he would rush up and kidnap the lieutenant colonel.

"Warrant Officer, if you let the above know that we're working with the Perceuals, do you think we'll have good fruit to eat?"

"This" Lieutenant Colonel Li Jing's words made Mark fall into deep thought, he was right, the Shariz military, did not dare to arrest them into the laboratory
