Chapter 207: Keep Going
Chen Chunan and the others checked their watches, there was no problem with the watches, and they did only move forward for more than twenty minutes.
The thirty-three bright stars in the sky were far away.
Chen Chunan's scalp exploded, and the situation here became weird.
"We can't go any further. Chen Chunan pulled Zhang Ruochen aside and said.
Although Zhang Ruochen was only an ordinary soldier in the Pioneer Brigade, he was the oldest elder in the Pioneer Brigade, and he was also a powerhouse of the Imperial Spirit Realm. The prestige in the Pioneer Brigade is still very high.
Chen Chunan wanted to persuade Zhang Ruochen first.
But he didn't expect that Zhang Ruochen was very persistent, and said to him: "It is precisely because there are too many weirdness here that we have to figure out the situation here, so as to reduce the losses of the entire Shence Army." ”
Zhang Ruochen's tone was very firm, this was a veteran who dedicated his whole body to the Shence Army, and the Shence Army was his everything.
If he could exchange one of his old lives for more benefits of the Shence Army, I am afraid he would not hesitate to do it.
The person who was most hopeful of being persuaded rejected Chen Chunan as soon as he opened his mouth, which made him completely disappointed, but he was also even more anxious about the road ahead.
Call!
The wind is howling, and the sand is flying.
When Chen Chunan felt that they had walked thousands of miles, the time displayed on the watch had only passed an hour and a half, and along the way, they did not see any living creatures, but found many inexplicably dead corpses.
Many of the soldiers were sleepy and tired, and they all noticed this strange situation.
The passage of time here seems to have slowed down, and the thirty-three bright stars have sunk to the west, but the sky is still pitch black, and when you take off the night vision goggles, it is still pitch black.
The map index on the display screen of the life detector in Wang Si's hand recorded the distance they had traveled.
Along the way, Chen Chunan noticed that Wang Si had checked the map on the display screen countless times, but he never said a word with a solemn expression.
After continuing the journey, he finally gave the order to rest again.
As soon as he had finished his order, every soldier fell to the ground, and many soon fell into a deep sleep.
Wang Si gathered Zhang Ruochen, Chen Chunan and others together.
"I'm sure you're all aware that something is wrong with the plane here. As Wang Si spoke, he looked at the thirty-three stars that were about to disappear into the sky, and his expression was heavy.
"The situation here is too weird, I still suggest that we go back first, report what happened here to the general, and wait for him to give the order again, and then we will act. Chen Chunan persuaded a few people gathered together.
"No, I can't. Cao Gui was the first to refuse.
Li Ba also shook his head and said to Chen Chunan: "This time, we made a military order in front of the general, and before we found an enemy, we retreated from the battle, even if there is another task next, the general will not send us to carry it out again." ”
Chen Chunan saw the same determination on the faces of Wang Si and Zhang Ruochen, he stopped opening his mouth and quietly listened to the conversation of several people.
"Take out the map, let everyone see how far we have traveled this time?" After Zhang Ruochen's words fell, Wang Si was speechless.
Seeing Wang Si's contemplative appearance, Zhang Ruochen said again: "Every soldier in the Pioneer Brigade is our brother in life and death, we have to believe in them, just tell them the truth, with my qualifications in the Pioneer Brigade for most of my life, I believe that every soldier in our Pioneer Brigade is not a bad seed." ”
Wang Si took a deep breath, and Zhang Ruochen's words touched him deeply.
Judging by the route of the march shown on the map index, they had traveled a full thousand miles this time.
During this thousand-mile journey, the life detector did not detect any signs of vital activity.
There is not a single living creature within a radius of thousands of kilometers.
Hiss!
Everyone gasped, although they had already guessed in their hearts, but when this fact was placed in front of them, they still had some difficulty accepting it.
Among the people gathered to discuss, except for Chen Chunan, no one advocated evacuation, and after a short period of shock, they still supported Wang Si to continue to give the order to find the enemy.
Chen Chunan sighed in his heart.
If the whole army is wiped out here, even if they find a strange cause, what is the use.
Chen Chunan didn't say this sentence, because he knew that at this time, no matter what he said, it was impossible for others to listen to it, and the four words "complete the task" had completely occupied their brains.
Wang Si and Zhang Ruochen had already accepted the term of underground creatures, but what they were even more puzzled about was whether the grassland tribal alliance cooperated with the underground creatures or was devoured by the underground creatures, and they were uneasy if they didn't find this answer.
They discussed together for a long time, and when everyone was finished, Wang Si gathered everyone together.
"Everyone must have noticed that there is an anomaly between the passage of time here and the normal passage of time, and the strangeness of this desert continues. ”
Wang Si paused slightly, his calm gaze sweeping over everyone.
"Now, there are two paths in front of us, one is to go home like this, return to the base camp with nothing, and then listen to the general's fate, and then listen to the others laugh at us as a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and the other is to continue to look for the enemy's base camp, complete the mission, and return like a hero. ”
After Wang Si's words, there was a brief silence in the crowd, and then I don't know who shouted the slogan again: Life and death are the same work, and if you don't reach the task, you won't pay it back!
Then, all the soldiers of the entire Pioneer Brigade shouted in unison:
"Life and death are the same work, and if you don't meet the task, you won't pay it back!"
"Life and death are the same work, and if you don't meet the task, you won't pay it back!"
......
For a time, the morale of the pioneer brigade was greatly boosted.
Chen Chunan couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't know whether the morale of the Pioneer Brigade was good or bad.
More than 100 people of the pioneer brigade, under the leadership of Wang Si, once again hit the road with high momentum.
After moving forward for more than 200 miles, Wang Si, who was leading the way, raised his right hand, and the whole team stopped moving forward under his signal.
Bang!
The earth trembled again, and every soldier looked calm, accustomed to the tremors.
Rustling...... Rustling......
There was a turbulent sound of sand beneath the ground, and a sand dune suddenly appeared on their path.
"Oh my God, what did I see? The sand in front of me was automatically rising?" Finally, many people saw the anomaly on the ground in front of them, and their expressions finally changed.
"What's that?" The ground ahead was still rising, and a large amount of sand rolled under the feet of each soldier.
Beneath the tall sand, there seemed to be a behemoth, like a giant beast from ancient times awakening.
