Chapter Seventy-Four: Divergence (Collect!Recommend!!)
Suddenly suffering such a heavy blow, the people did not dare to linger any longer, carrying the wounded, and treating them while fleeing.
Running at full speed, he withdrew from the range of the fungus blanket after more than an hour, boarded the Vikings who came to support, and fled back to the temporary base.
It's a mutant again, but this time it's not civilians who are infected, but heavily armed warriors.
The most terrifying thing is that those living dead actually use weapons, and they also strengthen their weapons, increasing their attack rate by 30%.
One simply can't imagine how the Zerg could have developed such a terrifying biological weapon.
The mutants obviously have no life, because when killing them, Jade Butterfly can't absorb the essence of life energy at all, proving that they are just shells at all, and there is no essence.
The morale of the team members has fallen to the limit, and they escaped death again, but there is no joy of surviving.
No one can accept that the former Federation soldiers were actually made into killing machines of their own kind by the Zerg and became the living dead.
"It seems that this mission is over, and with the state of these people, they can't continue to fight at all. ”
There are still 500 kilometers of road ahead, close to 100 million civilians, more than a million armed forces.
It's okay if they're all dead, but what a terrifying force it would be if they were all turned into mutants by the Zerg.
"Nelly, take the brothers and leave. ”
"What do you mean?"
"You go, I'm going to continue ......"
"What? Arwen, you ......"
Nelly obviously couldn't talk anymore, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control her emotions, and she was even more afraid of saying things that shouldn't be said.
"Captain, it's over, we've done our best, no one will blame you, and Colonel Kerrigan won't blame you if he has a spirit in the sky. “
"Yes, brother, it is not easy for us to get to where we are now, and we can't lose everything because of something that doesn't exist.
Come on, let's go back, go abroad for further study, and make a breakthrough in the future, for the country, for the people, for your ideals of freedom!"
Zhang Shan and him have been like brothers since they were children, and they had to get serious at this time and hug him fiercely, hoping to use warm friendship and family affection to melt his already cold and hard heart, and even his thinking that has gone astray.
"No, fatty, you don't understand, I have to go there. I have my ...... Reason. ”
"Fuck you don't understand, fuck you bullshit reasons. You're just like Jim's boss, and you're hooked on that. You're not stupid now, you're crazy.
Obviously the person is dead, and you still have to send it, what do you let us do? We came here with you, and we almost wiped out the army several times, and now we don't know if we can escape from this planet, do you want to make our efforts in vain? Besides, what about Nelly? I don't believe you're too stupid to understand her mind?"
"I ......"
Not only Zhang Shan was so excited, but the other team members also had rich expressions, suspicious, helpless, hateful, and disdainful, as if the person in front of him was no longer the captain they respected and worshipped, but a negative man who had abandoned the chaos from the beginning, a hopeless fool, and a mental illness that had just escaped from the madhouse.
"Zhang Wen, as the person who has known you for the longest time, I think you have serious mental and psychological problems now.
In accordance with Article 129 of the Battlefield Emergency Response Rules, I request that you be subjected to a psychological evaluation, and that the psychological evaluation procedures and the contingent be led by Lieutenant Nelly Andra. ”
Zhang Shan's words made the others' eyes widen and they looked at him in disbelief.
"This ......"
No one thought that Zhang Shan would be so radical and actually start such a procedure, and once he was evaluated, Zhang Wen would not have any chance of promotion in the past few years, and even no achievements in his life.
And if the assessment is not established, then Zhang Shan will be sent to a military court, the least serious crime is disrespect, and he will be severely punished and expelled from the army. If the sentence is severe, it will be a mutiny on the battlefield and will be punished for treason.
For a while, there was a freeze frame on the scene, and everyone didn't know how to answer. Although I think that Zhang Shan is the only chance to save the captain by doing this, it is too extreme, and it is a completely lose-lose situation.
"Arwen, what reason do you have, say it. ”
Nelly found a step for everyone at the right time, and at the same time hoped that everyone could convince him to change his mind.
"Hey......"
Zhang Wen was very helpless, he didn't expect Zhang Shan to be so impulsive, even Nelly went crazy with him, such a forced palace is too obvious, if there is no good reason, it is really possible to get up.
"Why do you do this, I would have explained it to you. ...... Do you remember the thunderbolt that slay the wyvern chasing us a few days ago? ”
What the?
Although everyone has speculation, Zhang Wen was still shocked when he said it himself. Everyone looked at each other, but Zhang Shan and Nelly's eyes were equally surprised and dazed, obviously they didn't know the specific situation.
"Don't be surprised, it's just awakened. Yes, I'm an alien human of the same kind as Kerrigan. That was the first time I had used such an ability, and I fell unconscious beyond the physical and mental load.
What I'm trying to say is that as the same xenomorph, I can feel that Kerrigan is still alive, and even she is still calling out to her kind to rescue her. ”
You may not believe, let alone understand, the feeling that is a call between souls. So I have to go, but I don't want you to be in danger,......"
......
On the purple-brown earth, on the endless plains, a lonely tall figure ran fast.
Zhang Wen has been running around and hiding in this area for a week, and the lacerations and scars on the mecha and dozens of single holes all tell about his thrilling experiences these days.
In order to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the deviants, he bypassed the city and buildings, and chose remote places to walk.
Despite this, there were still five attacks by the mutants. Although the number of mutants is not large each time, after all, he is just a person, and he can't make too much movement, so every time it is a life-and-death challenge.
A week ago, he convinced Zhang Shan, Nelly and others with seven points of truth and three points of falsehood. Let them wait for him in the makeshift base for ten days, and if they don't come back in ten days, they will have to find a chance to leave the planet.
Ten days? Of course I can't go back. Now that seven days have passed, Zhang Wen also knows that more time may be needed.
Ever since he had seen the Totem of the Worm in the Mobius Mansion, he could be sure that Kerrigan had not been sacrificed. And there was a line in the shadows that led him, he must go to the city of Tassanis, to the port, where there was the answer he wanted to know.
