Fifty-one There is no midpoint of the end
Wonderful things are always short-lived, always just beginning and ending immediately. This may be a law created by God to motivate people to keep moving forward, hope is ahead, and you have to keep working hard to enjoy the most wonderful moments.
When the day dawned, there was a commotion outside the door. A new day has begun, which means that a new day of tension and fatigue has arrived. Lin Yi opened his eyes a little reluctantly, but he was also silently grateful in his heart, this may be the most peaceful night he has rested in the past month. At that moment, he seemed to feel that he didn't need much. A bed, a stable environment.
Most of the Blood Angel mercenary groups are professional soldiers, so whenever there is a noise outside, they all wake up consciously. There was no bed at all in the place where everyone was resting, so there was no room for housekeeping, and everyone went out after a simple wash.
Slow was already waiting outside the door at this time, and they had obviously gotten up early.
"Good morning, Mr. Lin, the conditions are simple, please forgive me!" Slow walked over with a smile and patted Lin Yi on the shoulder to show kindness.
Lin Yi nodded a little unenergetically, feeling a little uneasy at the thought of the task that was about to start. He is still a small clerk at heart, and he likes to take risks, but that doesn't mean he likes to take risks with his life.
Slow didn't know what Lin Yi's nod meantd, but he also knew very well that he was going to send them out of the city gate to carry out the mission no matter what happened today. At that moment, he briefly explained to Lin Yi and led the way towards the destination.
The group was huddled in a bus and headed for the opposite side of where they had entered, apparently through the other exit. According to Sloe, their networking project is to connect the major forts through thick ground passages to form a defensive whole. Although it is said that the ground work is dangerous, it is better to dig the tunnel directly. But that kind of work is too large, so big that the zombies may be killed or the human beings are corpsed, and the underground tunnel has not yet been completed. Although the ground passage is more dangerous, as long as the defense work is done, those zombies are still not much of a threat. And due to the relatively short distance between the Jinka Fort and the next city, the two cities rushed to work day and night these days, completing most of the work with miraculous speed. Now the line between the two castles will soon be connected, and they have both been repaired to the midpoint of the line. This time, Lin Yi and others were to do the last help and help them successfully complete the project.
The buses were moving very fast, and people on the streets offered to make way for them. It didn't take long for the group to come to another exit. Lin Yi took the lead and got out of the car, and the others naturally didn't have many opinions.
As if seeing that Lin Yi and the others were still worried in their eyes, Slow continued to explain: "There are helicopter gunships constantly patrolling back and forth on the ground line between our two forts, and there is also real-time monitoring by satellites during the construction of the project. As soon as we find a zombie approaching, we will immediately have enough support. So rest assured, the defense forces on the ground are mainly just in case. ”
Lin Yi just smiled a little unenergetically, and then waved his hand and led everyone away. Regan's father and son were supposed to come along, but considering that little Reagan needed someone to take care of him, he didn't let them go with him. He wasn't afraid that Slow would sell his people, because it wouldn't do any good.
The exit in front of them was blocked by a huge steel plate at this time, and it seemed that their defense work was really careful. Waiting for Lin Yi and the others to set off, the steel plate slowly moved to the side. The person who led the team this time was very surprised, it was actually yesterday's old acquaintance No. 19. Everyone liked the boy a lot, optimistic and cheerful, and his smile was very contagious.
The army in charge of defense was always on the construction site, and the defense was carried out 24 hours a day. After all, they are directly facing those endless zombies, and they cannot be neglected for a moment.
The passage was dark, and after everyone entered with the engineering truck transporting materials, the huge steel door behind it slowly closed again. As the steel door closed, the passage was plunged into an oppressive darkness. At this time, the headlights of the three engineering vehicles were all brushed to illuminate the front. The place where it was almost dark and I couldn't see my fingers became bright now, and even the cement slag in the corner could be seen clearly.
"Look there!" Li Qiwen suddenly pointed to the edge of the light and pulled Lin Yi's arm.
Lin Yi squinted his eyes and looked over with Li Qiwen's fingers.
Suddenly, he only felt a tingling in his scalp. Although he had seen enough corpses, bones. But now when he saw a human arm again, he was still a little nervous. After all, this is a certain part of the body of your own compatriots, and even if you see a lot of it, you will still feel uncomfortable when you look at it alone.
"Has there ever been an accident here?" Lin Yi's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and he always felt that he had been tricked.
And the accident he talked about was, of course, the loss of the attack.
Li Qiwen didn't answer directly, but it was obvious that she also saw the strangeness here. If it's safe here, how can a human arm be casually discarded in the passage?
"There is no turning back from the bow, I think they won't open the door for us if we want to go back now." Everyone was sitting on the last vacant construction truck at this time, right in front of the huge steel door that had been closed.
"Well, today is the day when the two passages begin to connect together. I don't think they will play any tricks, otherwise wouldn't it be a joke to waste so much manpower and material resources to build a safe passage? "Lin Yi, as the leader, naturally can't start to lose his morale before he leaves the school.
Seeing everyone's disbelieving looks, Lin Yi had no choice but to pull Ao Ling'er over and say, "Come on, our Lingzi is a great wizard, and she will tell us if there is danger." ”
Ao Ling'er was a little embarrassed by Lin Yi's sudden pull. Just nodded and said, "I didn't feel anything wrong, although the first two feelings were correct, but don't really think that I have any magical powers!" ”
"Hahaha~" Everyone was amused by Ao Ling'er's lovely appearance, and the atmosphere of the whole team became a little lighter at this time.
In fact, as for Ao Ling'er's ability, after hearing Lin Yi analyze it before, everyone still believed it a little. After all, who would have thought that zombies would suddenly appear, but they were all over the world in an instant. If Ao Ling'er really has the ability to predict the good and bad in the future, it will be a great thing for them.
The car drove very steadily, and everyone got up early in the morning, so they took advantage of this time to catch up on sleep. As a mercenary group, the most important thing is to always be in the best shape and always ready for new combat missions.
It was not as far as everyone imagined, and in less than forty minutes, the car had stopped.
A ray of light shone on the car where everyone was from the front, and Lin Yi and his party, who had been in the dark for a long time, hurriedly got out of the car and prepared to start the defense work. Now they are equivalent to being employed, and they can't do whatever they want.
The docking project of the passage on both sides is expected to be completed at 8 o'clock this evening, and Lin Yi and others are responsible for defending near the construction site. At this moment, there are no less than 20 Leopard tanks parked near the construction site, and there are also many heavy machine guns on both sides, and the people in charge of the construction are all engineers, and they can be transferred to combat at any time. This section of defense can resist the attack of an infantry division at least for a short time, of course, if this force directly attacks the infantry division, then the infantry division will only have to flee for its life.
Of course, these are not enough, the early defense surface is larger, and the power grid has already been established on both sides of the channel. However, these power grids are too lethal to giant zombies, and they can destroy the power grids when they rush up. At the beginning, I knew that the threat of giant zombies was that at the beginning of the project, a group of giant zombies raided, causing the power grid to be destroyed, and the project almost failed. The catastrophe wiped out the construction crews and guards, and once again made everyone aware of the threat of these zombies.
It rained overnight last night, and today it's clear. Although the weather is still a little cold, the temperate southern region has a pleasant climate. The breeze blew on everyone's faces, like a lover's caressing. The short-term tranquility also allowed the members of the Blood Angel Mercenary Regiment to enjoy the long-lost tranquility, and such a day was already good.
There was no specific division of labor, and they all gathered together. It's not that we want to be lazy and grind foreign work together, it's just that in this strange place, the brothers and sisters who used to live and die together are the most trustworthy. I don't know whether to lament the good luck of my own people or the bad luck of the people who came to take charge of the security work here when the project was about to end. Lin Yi was always a little apprehensive in his heart, and he would always recall the "person" who turned around and left in a dashing way. He knew it was always there, he just didn't want to run into it.
"Everyone be vigilant, we can leave after we finish our mission today." Lin Yi glanced at everyone and could see the confusion in everyone's eyes. As a leader, he had to encourage everyone to pick themselves up and find their purpose.
Everyone nodded, a little forced to laugh. It's not that they don't know the special situation at this time, but the road ahead is too confusing, and it can't be solved by Lin Yi in a few words.
Everything was quiet, only the sound of construction trucks working back and forth. But peaceful days are always boring, and God doesn't like such days.
Lin Yi had a communicator in his hand to contact Slo, and the other party told him that he had not yet found a zombie attack.
But at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly found that something was wrong on the ground outside the power grid. The ground that had been flat suddenly slowly protruded, as if something was about to emerge from it.
"There is a situation!" Lin Yi shouted and raised his gun at the place that had protruded, and the speed of his heartbeat was accelerating.
The others were yelled at by Lin Yi's voice, and collectively stared at the land. It was covered with a thin layer of dead grass, and it was impossible to see what it was.
"Ah~" A small thing popped up, and everyone saw that it was a rabbit.
Just when everyone was about to laugh at Lin Yi's timidity, the rabbit that had just jumped up was suddenly caught by a big black hand!
A terrifying scene happened, and when the big hand grabbed the rabbit, the owner of the big hand also came out.
Zombie! Giant zombies! It actually buried itself in the ground!
"Shoot!" Lin Yi was the first to raise his gun to shoot, although he tried hard to aim at the zombies, but the accuracy was too poor.
The other party won't give him any chance, and a few dodges have already rushed to the front of the power grid. The high-voltage power grid can damage even giant zombies, so it keeps hitting the power grid in front of it with a thick wooden stick that it has picked up from nowhere.
"Heavy machine gun team, hurry up!" Whitson II had already run to the machine gun team at this time, and told the guys who were still stunned to hurry up and shoot. The bullet and the power grid collided, stirring up countless sparks, brilliant but short-lived.
Unfortunately, this zombie was too ferocious, and several salvos failed to hit its vital point.
"Not good! Here's another one! Suddenly, someone pointed not far away and shouted.
Everyone looked at each other, and there was not just one, but many of them, all emerging from the land. But this time everyone will not be so scared, because there is enough defense.
However, just when everyone immediately activated the defense system, they suddenly found that the power grid that was originally shining with sparks suddenly became an ordinary steel wire fence.
The power grid actually lost power at this time!
