Volume 1 The Book of Origins Chapter 17 The Beast Tide Starts Early
After the battle with the mutant tiger, Xia Xiaowei was injured and fell asleep, Jiang Li ran out of energy and fell into a coma after the outburst, and the two strongest combat forces of the team, three of them passed the second of the first secret realm, and they could not continue to fight.
For the sake of safety, and the central forest is almost detected, the deputy captain Li Yi decided to let the team evacuate to the eastern forest, camp and rest, and wait for Jiang Li and Xia Xiaowei to wake up.
On a giant tree, Ye Ming took out a compressed kettle and drank the water in it to quench his thirst. After drinking, he put away the kettle and lowered his head to look at Jiang Li and Xia Xiaowei lying side by side on the thick branches.
The senior's face has recovered a lot, and Sister Xiaowei's injuries have stabilized. Ye Ming glanced at the faces of the two people lying next to him: "Senior and Sister Xiaowei are really talented and beautiful, and they are a natural pair." This time, the senior was angry at the crown, and turned on the rampage mode to kill the mutant tiger scum left, and even our team members were shocked to see it. ”
Ye Ming thought of the two people lying next to him and became even more curious: "Senior obviously cares about Sister Xiao Wei, everyone can see it this time, but why haven't you been with Sister Xiao Wei?" When this mission is over, I must ask these two people." ”
Ye Ming gossiped silently in his heart, completely ignoring the small and cute hands that had been waving back and forth in front of his eyes.
"The hateful Ye Ming dared to ignore others, hum. I don't know when, Ruoxue stood in front of Ye Ming, wanting to tell Ye Ming something, but found that he was in a daze, so she waved her hand in front of Ye Ming's eyes, trying to attract his attention, but she didn't expect Ye Ming to ignore her.
"Oops, it hurts, it hurts. Ye Ming cried out in pain, looked down and found that Ruoxue was stepping on his feet hard.
"I know it hurts, so I let you ignore this girl. Ruoxue let go of her feet and looked at Ye Ming proudly with her hands on her hips.
Ye Ming remembered that when the two met for the first time on the main floor of Tongyuan Tower, Ruoxue didn't dare to look at his shy appearance, as well as Ruoxue's violent performance in the forest, and held his forehead with one hand and sighed: "I misjudged you, I didn't expect you to be so violent." ”
Ruoxue was stunned by Ye Ming's words, but immediately reacted: "Hmph, do you think I'm the kind of little girl who can only be shy? Then will I be selected to participate in this mission? ”
Ye Ming felt that this was the truth, if Ruoxue was that kind of timid and shy girl, Jiang Li would not let her participate in this mission.
"That's right, I'm looking for you for something!" Ruoxue returned to the topic.
"Well, what's the matter?" Ye Ming also thought of what Ruoxue was going to tell him.
Ruoxue rummaged through things in her backpack, then took them out and handed them to Ye Ming.
What Ye Ming saw in front of him were twelve claws more than ten centimeters long, emitting a strange luster, and the front ends of the claws were slightly curved downward.
"This is the claw of the mutant tiger?" Ye Ming took a look and knew what it was, this was the claw of the dead mutant tiger.
"That's right, this is the mutant tiger's claws, I originally thought that the mutant tiger was all electrocuted and there was nothing left, but I found these in the place of the battle, which shows how hard these twelve claws are. Ruoxue told Ye Ming about the origin of these claws.
Ye Ming took the twelve claws and weighed them in his hand, and found that these claws were still quite heavy, the claws had to be sharpened for a long time, and they were polished white, these were the twelve claws of the four legs of the mutant tiger.
"Why are you showing me these?" Ye Ming returned these claws to Ruoxue again, but Ruoxue didn't take them, shook her head, and said to Ye Ming:
"This is very useful to you, I heard Sister Xiao Wei say, you are going to participate in the first secret realm opened this time, and these claws to create a melee weapon should be very useful to you. ”
Ye Ming held the claws that suddenly became heavier, and he was very moved in his heart. Wakayuki found a melee weapon that he hadn't been able to use, so she gave him the tiger claw she had retrieved.
Ye Ming didn't refuse, after all, these claws were really useful to him, he turned around and asked the professor to build him a melee weapon, Ye Ming looked at the small Ruoxue in front of him seriously, "Thank you!"
Ruoxue saw Ye Ming's sincere eyes, her cheeks turned red, she lowered her head and replied, "You're welcome." ”
Ye Ming saw Ruoxue, who was shy again, and said inappropriately: "You won't be pretending to be shy again, right?"
Ruoxue, who didn't dare to look at Ye Ming just now, raised her head and glared at him, then snorted and turned her head away, leaving Ye Ming behind to touch his nose incomprehensibly.
"Well, you're really brainless. Ye Ming remembered a disappointed voice behind him, and Ye Ming turned his head to look.
"Sister Xiaowei, you're awake. Xia Xiaowei sat up, her beautiful eyes revealed a feeling that you are hopeless, but she didn't say anything, and simply responded to Ye Ming's "Hmm".
Xia Xiaowei looked at Jiang Li lying beside him, although he didn't know what he did after he fell asleep, but when he saw Jiang Li's current appearance, he knew that he was so tired.
"Sister Xiaowei, don't worry about senior, he's fine, he'll wake up soon. Ye Ming saw Xia Xiaowei looking at Jiang Li and didn't speak, afraid that she would be worried, so he quickly explained Jiang Li's situation.
"Well, after I fell asleep, he must have gone to kill the mutant tiger. Xia Xiaowei knew Jiang Li very well and knew that he was going to avenge her.
"Yes, Sister Xiaowei, you don't know, the senior he went berserk, and his whole body was full of electric light..."Ye Ming excitedly told Xia Xiaowei about Jiang Li's process of killing the mutant tiger, Xia Xiaowei sat there and listened quietly, one hand was gently placed on Jiang Li's forehead, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Not long after, Jiang Li also woke up and gathered the team members to discuss the next task. The detection of the forest is also nearing completion, and the detection data of the central forest and the western forest have been continuously transmitted to the No. 36 detection station, and then from the monitoring station to the Tongyuan Tower.
The team continued to bury detection equipment in the eastern forest, and after another day, the detection mission was finally completed.
"Whew, it's finally over, I'm tired. When Ye Ming came out of the eastern forest, he lay directly on the ground and breathed heavily.
Ruoxue squatted next to him mischievously, pinching Ye Ming's face with her hand, but Ye Ming didn't bother to resist and let Ruoxue pinch it.
After coming out of the forest, everyone's mood was obviously a lot more relaxed, but they did not completely relax their vigilance, and they had to go back to monitoring station 36 to see the results of data analysis.
Before the team arrived at the No. 36 monitoring station, they saw Zhou Mao and several soldiers stationed outside the testing station waiting for everyone.
"Welcome back, you've done a great job. Zhou Mao stepped forward to greet the players, but his face was not good, his expression was nervous, and he was worried.
"Captain Zhou, is something happening, the detection data should be out. Jiang asked Zhou Mao when he left the door.
"Captain Jiang, something is wrong, the beast tide has been launched in advance, and until now, the monitoring stations after No. 55 have been attacked by the beast tide. Zhou Mao directly told Jiang Li and the others about the current situation.
"The safety nets on both sides of the passage have already sent troops yesterday, and the Tongyuan Tower has also sent many capable people, and they have reached the front line one after another. However, there are only a few that can be sent out, after all, there is still a huge safety net that needs to be guarded by the army and capable people, so Tongyuan Tower issued an order to send you to the front line to participate in the battle and guard the passage. After Zhou Mao finished speaking, he handed a document to Jiang Li, and then took out a virtual imaging device and projected it on the ground.
Projected a man in a combat uniform with many military medals on his chest. When Jiang Li and the team members saw this person, they immediately stood up and saluted, and said in unison: "Minister!"
This person is the head of the Tongtian Jianmu Department on the main floor of the Tongyuan Tower, and he is also a person who has passed through the first secret realm, and he also holds an important position in the military, and has participated in the passage defense battle many times to resist the beast tide.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that you have just completed your forest reconnaissance mission around Monitor 36 and have not had time to rest. But the war ahead is urgent, and you need to set off immediately to the battlefield. The minister looked at Jiang Li and the team members with a serious expression.
"Minister, it's okay, we'll leave for the battlefield at once. Jiang Li first looked back at the team members behind him, and the team members all nodded their heads, and then Jiang Li replied to the minister seriously.
After ending the dialogue with the minister, Jiang Li took the team to bid farewell to Zhou Mao and the others, and went to the No. 50 monitoring station.
In the armored car, Ye Ming and the others sat in their seats solemnly, no one said a word, one was just to take a break in the car, and the other was that everyone had their own thoughts in their hearts, because war means death, and no one knew if they could come back this time.
"Take it easy, don't be too nervous, it's not the first time that humans have resisted the beast tide, and they also have a lot of experience. Jiang Li broke the silence and encouraged the players.
"Senior, I'm not afraid, participating in the battle will allow me to get better training. Ye Ming raised his head and looked at Jiang Li firmly.
Jiang Li looked at his junior brother and smiled with relief, with such an awareness, it seems that Ye Ming has also grown a lot.
"What's there to be afraid of, I'm going to go to the battlefield to kill many mutant creatures and let them know how powerful this girl is!" Ruoxue stretched out her little hand and clenched it into a fist, dangling it in the air, and said confidently.
Everyone else expressed their thoughts and did their best to guard the passage.
After several hours of driving, everyone approached the No. 50 monitoring station, and from a distance, the sky above the monitoring station was red, and the sound of missiles rising and exploding from time to time was heard, mixed with the roars of various mutant creatures.
"Is the fighting already so fierce, let's hurry over and join the army. Jiang Li retracted his gaze into the distance and led the team to the No. 50 monitoring station.
A large number of trenches were dug on both sides of the passage, and huge platforms were erected on the passage, and many weapons were placed.
Trenches and platforms are built when passages are built, and they are opened in time of war to help in battle. In addition to platforms and trenches, there are also many temporary buildings, which are not built brick by brick, but 3D printed by using technology, and are very fast, a monitoring tower more than ten meters high can be built in a few minutes.
Jiang Li first took the team to the monitoring station to report and see what tasks the military would send them. Armored vehicles and war machines stopped on the inside of the trench, and the team members walked to the monitoring station, and the outside of the trench was overwhelmingly fighting, and the beast tide was hitting the trench wave after wave, and all kinds of human weapons also hit the beast tide.
The team members have already experienced the fierceness of the war after walking a distance, and their eyes have been locked on the battlefield and cannot be taken away.
"It's here, let's go inside. Coming to the downstairs of the No. 50 monitoring station, Jiang Li reminded the people behind him to retract their gaze, and the group walked into the monitoring station.
