Chapter XVI: The Final Chapter

Previous Chapter

By the afternoon, all the personnel had arrived at the airport, during which we had experienced a big battle. Most of the larger groups of mutant zombie creatures in the surrounding city were wiped out.

Therefore, on the way to the airport, our group did not encounter any more mutated zombie creatures. There was no further turmoil during the boarding process.

Two military transport planes lifted off from the airport, then joined up with four helicopter gunships above the airport and finally whizzed in the direction of the city.

After a flight of more than an hour, six planes arrived safely over the city. Since there was no place for the two large transport planes to land near the gathering place, the group had to rush to the military area again.

In the gathering place, the left-behind people who have been notified in advance are on the way back when the plane turns back. A large number of fighters were sent to clean up the airfield.

"It's finally back." High in the air, looking down at the scenery from the helicopter window, I finally let out a breath.

By this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and a few lights could be faintly seen on the ground. As the plane landed, the light grew brighter and brighter.

In the airport, a group of heavily armed combatants were on guard under the leadership of the squad leader, and in front of the energy detector that had been temporarily moved, a white-haired old man was busy with a few young men.

By scanning the energy fluctuations around the airport, it detects possible lurking dangers.

"Master. You'll let me try it. In front of the energy detector, a handsome young man in a white coat looked at the white-haired old man with a smile.

The young man's eyes looked at the old man pitifully, but more often, he would always glance at the energy detector a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, and those eyes were full of longing.

The old man glanced at it and scolded angrily: "You rabbit cub." Last time, Lao Tzu hasn't settled accounts with you, and now I'm coming to fight my baby again, don't be delusional. ”

After a scolding, the old man looked angry, didn't look at the young man, and transferred all his energy to the energy detector in front of him again.

Carefully operating the energy detector, every movement is unusually careful and light, as if he is afraid of damaging the machine itself because of one of his actions.

After being scolded, the young man's face was as usual, and he seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of thing.

"Master, don't be angry, I know it's my fault last time, I shouldn't mess with your precious instrument. But wasn't that an accident? Finally, isn't this energy detector also fixed? ”

The old man waved his hand angrily and said, "Go, go, go, don't you see that the old man is busy." You bunny. Don't be beating me up with my precious idea. If you really want to operate the Energy Detector, then go to the base and apply for it. Last night I heard from my old friend that our base might put a third energy detector in the near future. ”

"Although you kid, Lao Tzu's body doesn't like you, but it's still a bit of real material, and it's not much of a problem to be the captain of this energy detector."

Speaking of this, the old man stopped what he was doing, turned his head, and said with a serious face: "Although your ability is good, there are a sea of capable people in our base. The position of the captain of the third energy detector is afraid to cause a scramble. After all, the captain's treatment is there, and many people are staring at it. ”

"Besides, the leader has returned from Hand City this time, and the number of scientific researchers he brought back will probably not be less than five hundred. These people are all elites in various fields, and if they also compete for the position of captain of the third energy detector, your chances will be even slimmer. ”

Hearing that the third energy detector at the base was about to come out, several young people were shocked, and their faces showed a look of longing.

Today's base, because I vigorously collected talents before, can now be regarded as a part of the storage of real talents in various fields.

Because the facilities in the base have not yet been fully opened, the number of jobs is very limited, resulting in many professionals arriving at the base and doing nothing all day.

You must know that in the base, the treatment of everyone is directly linked to their own contributions. If you don't have a job, you will only be paid the lowest level.

Looking at those who have jobs, they have meat and milk every day, and they can also taste a few taels of wine and enjoy the taste of cigarettes every day. But he can only eat the most ordinary artificially made food, and the meat he eats every week is not even comparable to what others can eat in a day.

This huge disparity in treatment is something that these people with real materials can't accept no matter what. They are eager to work and want higher salaries, so everyone is desperately grabbing for that few jobs.

In the base, any high-performance machine, because it itself surpasses modern technology, is quite demanding on the master.

Just like the energy detector, there is a main person in charge, and several additional deputies. And the old man, who is the captain, has been immersed in electronic machinery for decades. Rao is like this, before taking over this energy detector, he also received special training.

In the entire base, there are few people who can become captains. And the salary of these captains is much higher than that of most of the base personnel.

In the base, the position of captain is the most popular regardless of the scientific research director, the store manager, and the captain of the hunting team. Many people want to get this position, and there are only a few people who can get their wish.

"The third energy detector? Master, how reliable is this message? The young man's face was eager, and his eyes were full of fire as he looked at the old man.

The old man smiled and said, "This news, in fact, is not a secret in the inner layer of the base. My old friend is now the deputy director of scientific research at the base, and since he has spoken, there must be no fake. ”

After confirming the reliability of the news, the young man jumped up from the ground, clapped his palms, and laughed: "Great, this news turned out to be true, this time, I must not let go of this opportunity, I also want to become a captain." ”

Looking at the excitement on the young man's face, the old man couldn't help but shake his head, and said in a somewhat low tone: "Rabbit cub, it's not me who hit you, there are many people vying for this position this time." I heard some news in the base that Wang Bo might also compete for the position of captain. ”

Hearing the name Wang Bo, the young man's face changed. With a look of disbelief, he looked at the old man for a long time before he asked in an uncertain tone: "Master, are you sure that Wang Bo is also interested in the position of this captain?" We're all getting old, what are you robbing with us young people? ”

The old man shrugged helplessly and said, "This is not easy to understand, I have been at the base for so long, and I have been idle because I have no suitable job. I don't do anything, but the treatment is the same as that of us captains, and the old man must be unhappy and want to do something. No, it just so happened that the third energy detector came out, and the old man became interested. ”

After hearing these words, the young man's head drooped, and he smiled weakly: "It seems that I have no fun as the captain of this third energy detector." With this old man here, who would dare to rob the entire base. ”

The old man nodded again and again, and said: "That is, people are the authority in the field of electronic and mechanical heads, and looking at the field of electronic and mechanical heads in China, few people dare to call for it." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, reached out and patted the young man's shoulder, and comforted: "Boy, don't be disappointed. After my leader returns this time, there must be a big move. Everyone speculates that the base is about to be fully opened, and when the time comes, there will be more talents needed. ”

"Although those jobs are a bit hard, my leader and Miss Yu Meiqing are not ordinary people, as long as you have real materials, sooner or later you will be able to get ahead."

Just as the two of them were talking, an alarm sounded inside the energy detector, and the two hurriedly turned their heads and looked at the screen.

On the display screen of the energy detector, there is a three-dimensional map near the airport, and at this time, dozens of light points are constantly beating on this three-dimensional map.

Next to the three-dimensional image, strings of characters appeared. When the young man saw these characters, his heart lifted violently.

"Four re-evolved, more than a dozen one-time evolutions, and the degree of evolution of one of them is even infinitely close to the ...... of three evolutions"

Before the young man could finish speaking, the old man on the side had already interrupted, and there was no nervous expression on the horse's wrinkled face.

Looking at the young man's tight face, the old man sighed, then pointed to the display screen and said, "Boy, you still need to learn more." Although we don't have a life detector here, we have to learn to use the data from the energy detector to determine the race of the creatures we find. ”

"Do you see this character, on weekdays, if we don't pay attention, it's hard to spot it. And it has a very important meaning in the data displayed by the energy detector. In ancient civilizations, this character represented us humans. In other words, these points of light on the energy detector are actually human beings. And who in our region can have so many evolutionaries? ”

The young man swallowed his saliva, looked at the light spot on the display screen, and said with some difficulty: "Master, you mean that these re-evolvers are all from our base?" But when did we have so many re-evolvers in our base? And who is the person who has reached 24% evolution? ”

The old man smiled slightly, raised his head, looked at the sky in the distance, and said meaningfully: "Have you forgotten what I told you, our leader is not an ordinary person. Just like those unbelievable ancient instruments, there are too many magical means. While this 24 percent evolution is unacceptable, we should not be skeptical. As a member of this base, we need to be proud. ”

The young man is also a clever person, just a sentence, and soon thought of a lot of things, nodded solemnly, and said no more. Raise your head and follow the old man's gaze to the sky.

At this time, in the misty sky, six planes slowly arrived from afar, carrying hope and the future, carrying the eternal doom......
