Chapter 3: The Extra Man
The helicopter was fast, and around 5 p.m., the crowd was already approaching the outskirts of Lop Nur and stopped at a place called Kumu Kuduk.
When you get here, everything around you becomes a desert world, and everything in the distance is golden sand, and there is no end in sight, just like a sea of sand.
Without bothering about trimming, everyone changed cars again and began to drive towards the desert......
Around 8 p.m., all the people finally converged. Outside the B forbidden area, the troops stationed here, the 749 Bureau, Unit 01 and some scientific researchers all gathered to discuss the action plan.
The night in Xinjiang came very late, and until now I can clearly see the sunset that has not yet set.
Under the illumination of the remnant sun, everyone's shadows were stretched for a long time, and the hot summer combined with the dry desert made people feel a burst of heat in their hearts, and the heads of various departments also unconsciously raised their voices a lot.
"Our mission this time is to find the missing duty platoon and rescue them, I know there may be danger inside, so I hope everyone will be vigilant and don't act alone!"
In the end, the commanders of those units were unanimous, and the people of the 749 Bureau investigated deeply, and Unit 01 responded as a combat response to rescue the missing platoon on duty.
"Old Seven, how do I have a creepy feeling. A member of Unit 01, codenamed "04", said to Jiang Yifan.
Jiang Yifan nodded and said: "Me too, there are more than 20 people in a platoon on duty, and all of them disappeared overnight, which is incredible." ”
"yes, but I don't think there's any danger, this is a nuclear weapons test site, what will survive?" said Four, checking the ammunition.
Soon, Captain Scarface brought the latest news.
"Mysterious creatures have been found in Lop Nur, everyone has raised my vigilance! If the situation is not right, retreat immediately!"
"Yes!" the team members replied in unison, but at the same time, they were all at a loss. How tenacious the vitality of the creatures that can survive the nuclear weapons test area must be!
Unconsciously, the night gradually sank, and all the people who acted were issued night vision devices, walkie-talkies, etc., and began to slowly move towards the B forbidden area.
......
With the help of night vision devices, everyone can see clearly, the surrounding terrain is unobstructed, except for sand, it is sand, and there is no abnormal situation.
Ahead, twenty people from Bureau 749 slowly dispersed in an umbrella shape, and began to look for traces of the creature.
Unfortunately, there was a strong wind here, and all traces were blown away and buried, and it is difficult to find any signs of life.
After going about three kilometers deep, everyone finally arrived at the place where the duty squad had disappeared. Soon, the people of Bureau 749 found the remaining tent of the duty squad and a pair of equipment that had been damaged.
"Where have they gone?" Jiang Yifan thought as he looked at the desert around him with no signs of life.
At this time, the walkie-talkie rang, and an order came from above.
"At most three kilometers deeper, if there is no clue, withdraw immediately!"
Probably due to the distance, when I got here, the signal of the walkie-talkie was not very good, and there was some "rustling" sound.
Jiang Yifan looked back, only to see that a layer of mist had filled the back road at some point, making people no longer see the lights in the distance, and the surroundings seemed to fall into a void world.
"Here's a clue!"
Suddenly, someone spotted the clue. I saw that in the sand, there was a broken bone stuck there, which seemed to be the broken leg of a person.
"Report it to the top immediately!"
"Stinging, stinging...... Thorn ......"
Someone wanted to report it to the officers on the outskirts of Lop Nur by radio, but all the signals here were blocked, there was no channel at all, and even the operatives could not hear each other's speech.
"Damn!" Captain 01 threw the radio headset to the ground. Under night vision, his scarred face looked extremely distorted and terrifying.
Do you want to go on?, and all of them stopped, for on the broken leg bone someone had found a row of deep tooth marks, and in the middle of it, there was even a tooth embedded in it.
Everyone felt a little creepy, that tooth was obviously a human tooth, but now it appeared on the leg bone, and this is simply impossible to happen, unless people eat people!
"What happened to them?" Jiang Yifan belonged to a relatively calm kind of person, at this time, he did not seem to be flustered, but was carefully analyzing.
"Remember when a scientist went deep into Lop Nur and eventually disappeared?"
"Of course you do, Pengamu. ”
Suddenly, someone in the team brought up the matter.
"Silence! It's all rumors, Pengamu just died of thirst in the desert because he was looking for water!" Captain 01 reprimanded.
"Anyway, I think there's something strange here, so we'd better be careful. In the crowd, the man muttered again.
The crowd continued to move forward, carefully guarding their surroundings all the way.
Before I knew it, a fog was filled, revealing a strange red color, which made people feel shocked.
"Red mist?"
"I had a sense of foreboding. ”
Everyone subconsciously narrowed down the search area, because the fog was getting thicker and thicker, and in the end, the visibility to the naked eye was less than twenty meters, and if it was too far away, it would be very dangerous.
"One, two, three, four......"
At this time, among Unit 01, which was walking in the rear, someone began to count the number of people.
"What are you doing?" asked Captain 01.
The man had a look of fear on his face, and he swallowed a mouthful of spit before saying, "Captain, haven't you noticed that there is one more person here?"
Under the thick fog, the vision of the night vision device was also blocked a lot, but after a closer inspection, it can be found that among the searchers of the 749 Bureau walking in front, the number of people has changed from 20 to 21 people!
Cold sweat suddenly soaked everyone's backs, this kind of thing is too weird, with the help of night vision devices, they didn't even find out when that person mixed into the team! This made the elites of Unit 01 feel a sense of fear.
"Don't alarm that...... things, we can see clearly before we do it. Captain 01 really didn't know what to call that unknown existence, so he could only use the word "thing" instead.
The crowd gradually moved forward, and as time passed, several members of Unit 01 finally determined the unknown location.
From the rear, the "man" was staggering and stiff, as if he was injured, and he didn't look like a member of the operation selected in the previous 749 round.
"Up, slowly approach. ”
Jiang Yifan and No. 5 determined the target and slowly approached together, to see clearly what this unknown thing was, and it was able to mix in the team for so long with the fake and the real.
"Up!" With a loud roar, Jiang Yifan and No. 5 set off at the same time, the two of them attacked the upper body of the thing, and the other attacked the foot of the person, but they did not kill the killer.
With a pop, the "man" let out a scream and fell to the sand, wailing in pain.
The people in Unit 01 are all perverts and have super physical fitness, even if they don't have a killer, but their strength is not something that an ordinary person can withstand, according to this person's wailing, it should be a fracture.
At this toss, all the people noticed the abnormality and gathered around.
"Let him go! What are you doing!" the person in charge of the 749 bureau team rushed to hear the news, and scolded with anger on his face.
"Captain Qin, we have sensed that something else in your team has mixed in. The captain of Unit 01 explained.
"Ridiculous! Although our people in Bureau 749 are not as good as you 01, they are also good players selected from various units, if one person is mixed in, we will not know?" said the person in charge of Bureau 749, obviously protecting the calf.
Around, the people of Bureau 749 also rushed to hear the news and formed a semicircle, and their eyes looking at Unit 01 were vaguely full of anger.
At this time, Jiang Yifan said loudly: "When we came, there were only 20 people in your 749 bureau, but now there is one more person, and this person's pace is stiff and abnormal." ”
"I've seen it myself, and there's indeed one more person!" Captain 01's tone gradually sank. His face was already full of scars, and his face was even more terrifying at the moment.
"Hmph, then I want to see who this person you have caught!" Captain Qin squatted down and raised his hand to take off the helmet of the "man" who was wailing to see his appearance clearly.
Suddenly, the mutation happened at this moment, and I saw that the "person" who was still wailing before suddenly jumped up and bit the hand of Captain Qin of the 749th Bureau tightly, and almost immediately, everyone heard a crackling sound coming out.
"Help!"
Jiang Yifan's reaction was very fast, he kicked it directly, and directly kicked and broke several ribs of that "person", and the crisp sound of fractures suddenly sounded, which made people grit their teeth when they heard it.
"Shhhh
Losing his helmet, the appearance of that "person" suddenly leaked out. His appearance was no different from that of ordinary people, but his expression was relatively stiff, and he kept roaring, as if he couldn't feel the pain of Jiang Yifan's blow just now.
"Ahh
Captain Qin couldn't even speak at the moment, his face was covered with sweat, and the sharp pain in his hands made him want to die immediately.
"Sniff!"
With a crisp sound, everyone finally hurriedly pulled that person away from Captain Qin of the 749th Bureau, but Captain Qin also paid a heavy price for this - half of his palm was bitten off by that person, the flesh and blood were blurred, and the whole person had passed out.
