Chapter 159: But So What?
Just when Qi Rin entered the northern city with the child.
The base camp of the military, deep underground.
In the steel corridor, Qin Youde, whose face was gloomy and uncertain, strode towards the end.
According to the information, early this morning, a large number of demon seeds in the southeastern fog began to gather.
It's a fact that the tide is taking shape.
What is known for sure is that there are no less than a thousand demon seeds in the bronze rank among the demon tides!
And there are hundreds of silver-level demon seeds!
And the number continues to grow!
At all times, roaring and roaring demon seeds converge from all directions towards the edge of the fog in the southeast,
They roared and roared, hungry and thirsty, waiting for the fog to lift.
And finally when the demon tide gathers and launches an attack.
What that power is, Qin Youde doesn't want to think about it anymore.
All he could think about now was how to repel the tide and how to convince the high-end forces in the waiting room to join him on a dangerous mission.
This mission may allow Naori to see the new world of the future.
Knock knock.
Special hard-soled combat boots kept in touch with the metal floor, and muffled sounds echoed through the long corridor.
Qin Youde was also followed by a woman who wanted to speak several times, and she was the auxiliary pianist in the team.
At the same time, he is also his cousin, and the only family member he has left, and perhaps the last person related to the Qin family in Nanzhili.
Seeing that the conference room at the end was about to arrive, the pianist couldn't help but say out loud: "Brother? Is it true that the North City side can't give support? ”
Qin Youde's footsteps froze in place, and the white LED light on the bottom layer shone on his twisted centipede scar.
The qin master took two steps forward, looked at Qin Youde and asked again, "Brother, didn't the stars say that the skeleton people withdrew their troops this morning?" Those skeletons are now assembled at the edge of the northern mist, and we have so many things for him, why can't we take advantage of them to find the skeleton man now? ”
"I've seen dozens of skeleton task forces return to headquarters today, and I don't understand why they continue to try to communicate with skeletons."
"If you look for it now, you may not be able to change the prediction."
After Qin Youde was silent for a while, he said in a low voice: "This is the commander's order before he fell unconscious, no matter what happens, no one in the headquarters is allowed to approach the north!" Even all of the Knife Squads and soldiers in the northern direction were redeployed to other directions last night. ”
Seeing that the pianist was going to say something more, Qin Youde raised his legs and continued to walk towards the conference room at the end, and the moment he passed by, a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes: "Okay, this matter is over, don't ask again, soldiers take it as their duty to carry out orders." ”
The violinist wanted to speak and stopped, but after all, he didn't continue to ask.
"You go and tell the big gun, and we'll leave in thirty minutes." An undoubted voice came out of Qin Youde's mouth.
The big gun is a sniper in Qin Youde's squad.
"What about Yan Ling and Bai Mei?" The pianist frowned and asked, "Without the two sisters, you guys are here."
Qin Youde, who didn't stop walking, waved his hand to stop her words: "They are cooperative relations, not our soldiers, we can't use righteousness to persecute them, that will only backfire." ”
"And, after I'm gone, no one will be able to deter those who want to fly separately except for the two sisters, so they won't be involved in this operation."
At the end of the steel corridor, in front of the conference room.
Qin Youde turned his head to look at the luthier who was silent, patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, our headquarters has a population base of more than 800,000 people, and there are two legendary-level professionals and seven legendary-level talent owners. ”
"In this operation, in addition to the stars and the commander, at least two of the other four legendary talent holders will be with me."
"I know, brother." The luthier lowered his head and turned to leave.
Qin Youde looked at the back of his cousin leaving, his cheeks bulged, and he couldn't help but say: "If I can't come back, and my uncle is not here, then you can go with Yan Ling and her sisters." ”
"Yan Ling is a quiet and indifferent person, her sister Bai Mei has a kind heart, and the sisters are trustworthy, if the skeleton people don't come, then you will follow them."
Qin Youde watched his cousin stand in place and his shoulders shrugged slightly, and the centipede scar on his face trembled even more.
He finally said: "If I fail, the two sisters are one of the few people who have the ability to kill Nanzhili, I have already asked Yan Ling, she promised to take you out." ”
After Qin Youde finished speaking, he stopped looking at this family member who might be alone, turned around and pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in.
In the steel corridor, the luthier suddenly strode forward.
"People can't always cry out in pain when they have a little blood, turn on the lights when they are afraid of the dark, and be homesick if they are fragile, and they will always grow up."
This is what Qin Youde has said to her and Qin Youyi since he was a child.
It's just that to this day, she still doesn't feel like she's grown up.
Inside the conference room.
On the stepped seats, there were more than 30 people in black combat uniforms.
They are all drawn from various sharp knife squads, whether it is level ability or faith, they are the top existence among all the people in the headquarters.
Just now, they were urgently summoned to this place, saying that they were going to carry out a dangerous mission, but it is not known what it is.
In the first row, there are four people who are busy.
Three of them each wiped their weapons, and the wounds were clearly visible from the torn combat uniforms on their bodies.
Another person was wiping a machine gun in his arms, saying that it was a machine gun, but the muzzle diameter and barrel length were mini anti-aircraft guns.
In addition to Qin Youde, these four are the four Heavenly Chosen ones with legendary-level talents.
After Qin Youde entered the conference room, he first took out a cardboard box from the space ring.
The carton is filled with freshly printed booklets.
The booklet is printed with information on various demon seeds that intelligence officers have exchanged for their lives.
After receiving the booklet, the people who had been urgently summoned began to quickly flip through it.
Corrupt Giant Bear: A soldier-grade silver-rank demon with a tall body, about six meters tall and three meters wide, and a muscular body.
The fur is grayish-brown and covered with dark black spots, and the fur is extremely thick, each one so strong that it can easily tear through concrete and destroy steel.
The reconnaissance skill shows that he can swallow the core of the hard body of the living body, allowing himself to obtain a bonus to the upper limit of strength, and his eyes are like that of a human being, and he is suspected of having a lot of intelligence.
Stinger Scorpion: A soldier-grade silver-rank demon with a brownish-red body about 2 meters long, a reddish-brown crust with pitted skin, sharp spines and spines growing on each joint, and sharp stingers on its tail and chelicerae.

Crazy Bird: A soldier-grade silver-rank demon with a body covered in dark brown feathers and broad wings with rust-colored spots.
The thick claws are extremely sharp, the Academy's special steel spears and armor can be easily torn apart, and the wings can whip up powerful hurricanes.
The common attack method is a violent swing of wings and claws, and the angle of the attack is adjusted, which is extremely tricky.
Sawtooth Weasel: A soldier-level silver-rank demon seed, this monster looks like a ferret, its body is covered in jagged thorns, and it is agile and cunning.
Able to climb, jump, and run at high speeds, and when caught up with its prey, it will tear its body apart with serrated spines.
Petrified Worm: A soldier-level silver-rank demon seed, a giant silkworm that can eat all kinds of metals and transform them into its own hard shell.
Resembling a pangolin, its body is wrapped in a hard carapace, which can easily withstand the full force of the eighteenth-level Chosen One.
It can secrete a mucus that can petrify creatures and solidify prey for consumption.
Blood Corpse Bat: A soldier-level silver-rank demon seed, a giant bat-like creature with sharp teeth and claws, and excellent flying ability.
Whenever they see blood or meat, they become extremely crazy, let out hoarse screams, and then besiege their prey.
Black Spider: A soldier-level silver-rank demon species, a spider, with a black body, eight rugged legs, and many sharp spines on the body.
Likes to lurk in the shadows, attacking prey at an alarming speed, while also spewing pestilence spider silk that makes it impossible for prey to escape, and has a pair of glowing eyes on the top of his head, which is extremely advantageous for underground combat.
Ghouls: Soldier-level silver-rank demon species, a giant class, with crocodile-like skin and covered in dark scales.
Large, with several well-developed limbs and sharp fangs, this demon breed uses superhuman agility to track its prey, and can even hide underground and leap out to attack its prey without it knowing.
In the conference room, everyone kept flipping through the booklets.
The sound gradually changed from rustling to rattling.
And everyone's expressions gradually became solemn.
The booklet is very thick, and it is full of soldiers-level and silver-rank demon seeds.
According to the latest research by the Demon Seed Research Institute, children represent the difference between intelligence and talent.
The same type of demon species, the difference between the combat power of the child level and the soldier level is huge.
And under the subdivision, among the soldiers, there are also a few particularly powerful demon species, such as the previous big snake and frog woman.
In a way, they are the equivalent of legendary talent holders on the human side.
While everyone was flipping through the booklet with heavy faces, Qin Youde had already finished the player on the podium, and the shadow cloth slowly hung down.
He waited quietly for everyone to finish reading, and then spoke in the face of their gathered gazes: "The demon tide is coming." ”
As soon as Qin Youde's words came out, everyone in the room suddenly became a little incredulous.
They don't understand why the tide is coming so fast.
"Although we have been preparing for the magic tide"
"But the tide of demons came too suddenly, and our existing strength and defense system are simply not enough to resist this onslaught head-on."
"So, we're going to do something."
Qin Youde looked around, was silent for a moment, and then said loudly: "People outside call us heroes. ”
"More than 800,000 people!"
"More than 800,000 people outside call us heroes!"
Qin Youde's gaze slowly swept around, he looked at the high-end combat power of the military headquarters and said in a deep voice: "But I want to say, heroes are not shouted. ”
"It's a typed !!"
"Our brother squad, the human rat special forces."
Qin Youde waved the booklet in his hand at everyone: "On the way to carry out the mission, they found that the demon seeds in the mist were gathering in large numbers. ”
"Three days, within three days, that group of demon cubs will attack Nan Zhili!"
Qin Youde looked at the people with heavy faces, and he was very relieved that he didn't see fear on everyone's faces.
Qin Youde nodded with satisfaction and continued loudly: "Yes, it's gathering!" I'm blunt, there are hundreds of silver-rank demon seeds that have been gathered alone! ”
"Is there anything to be afraid of?"
"Nope!" Except for the two people in the first row, the rest of the people spoke in unison.
Qin Youde glanced at the two Chosen One who joined the military after the catastrophe, one was the owner of the legendary talent of firearms, codenamed Machine Cannon.
There is also a legendary talent owner of melee cold weapons, codenamed Cold Spear.
Qin Youde didn't go out of his way to look at them, but after glancing at them, he lowered his head and inserted a card reader into the player.
He said in a relaxed tone as he tinkered: "No? Lie! ”
After Qin Youde inserted the card reader into it, he laughed loudly: "But it's okay! There are so many demon seeds, so many high-end combat power, I was scared to pee at first! ”
"But so what? Don't you have to face it the same way? ”
"What attitude do you use to face it?"
Qin Youde stretched out his hand and pointed to the video that started playing on the shadow cloth.
In the distance, in the lush primeval forest, many demon seeds of different shapes are entrenched and roaring.
In the nearby weeds, which have grown to human height, some traces of human civilization before the cataclysm can be seen all the time.
The camera pans forward, and there is no sound except the roar and the sound of the wind blowing through the weeds.
Immediately after, a terrible scream came.
"Silver Rad Bird!"
"Dodge!"
The urgent voice of the photographer sounded.
The camera quickly went dark, as if he was underground.
The occasional bloodthirsty red light shows that the angle of the video is shaking, and it looks like the person who shot the video is always moving forward.
Suddenly, there was a bang!
The ground cracks, light appears, and the video begins to slow down, as a tail pin with a shimmering metallic glow flashes and an afterimage pierces through the ground.
Immediately afterward, the video angle began to rotate 360 degrees, and it seemed that the camera was thrown out.
Shouts and explosions mingled.
The video began to slow down again, and the angle rotated to summarize, a human creature wearing a military uniform with a rat head and a human body was pierced through the chest by a huge tail needle, and the body after the rapid passage of life was hanging in the air.
At the moment when the video angle was about to be lost, everyone in the conference room saw that the head of the colleague was bitten off by the silver-rank ghost scorpion.
Then the next moment, the video angle rises sharply, and a swooping human finch catches the camera and begins to pull up rapidly.
Immediately after that, the person in the video roared: "All the explosive potions!" Block them! ”
In the video, the roars of the demon seed came and went, and what the people behind them said could no longer be heard.
The people who were besieged by the void finches frantically searched for the edge of the fog.
It wasn't until the end that the fog finally appeared in the picture.
"There is the effect of ghosts hitting the wall in the fog, although we are not far away, it is still difficult to return, and we have lost our sense of direction, please pay attention to this point for those who come after us."
At the end of the video, the finch seems to have fallen from a high altitude.
With a bang, blood slowly spilled on the camera lens.
Then there was a dead wait, and after a long time, a team of sharp knives quickly arrived, took the camera, and the video ended.
This is one of the many pieces of intelligence that have been sent back to the Fog Scout.
Not long after this team entered the fog, from the moment they saw the most advanced demon seed, they were all wiped out in a very short period of time before they had time to record carefully.
The nearby fog symbolizes safety, but they seem to have lost their sense of boundaries and never find their way home.
Qin Youde turned off the video playback and turned his head to look at the people with heavy faces.
"This is one of the recovered videos, and many more have been sacrificed in the fog."
"Up to now, all the human and mouse special forces have been killed, and only one of the human sparrow special forces who went to the mist has survived, and he has been seriously injured and died."
Qin Youde clenched his fists: "They are our comrades, although our brothers do not have our ability, but they want to protect the family and defend the country like us!" ”
"I know that two of you weren't pre-cataclysmic soldiers, and I shouldn't have asked you for that."
At this moment, the legendary talent owner of the code cannon stood up from the first row and smiled: "When I was a child, I was disobedient and went to fish in the river, but I was pierced by a branch, and then I got air in my abdomen and had chest surgery. ”
"I had just come back from outside and was about to go to the hospital to see the injuries caused by the earthquake, and I was told that I was here for a meeting, saying that I was volunteering for a dangerous task and that I could not go if I did not want to."
The machine gun looked at Qin Youde and smiled: "Major Qin, in fact, you don't need to lay down so much, the country is not only for those of you who have worn military uniforms for a long time, but also ours, isn't it?" ”
After saying that, the cannon sat down, and continued to slowly wipe his weapon, the movement was gentle as if he were stroking a lover.
"It's a pity, I said that I would wait until I find the mechanic and ask him for a dimensional anchor button for me, and I don't know if the mechanic is as amazing as he predicted."
"Infinite firepower? I don't know if I can eat this flatbread." The cannon expressed his attitude with self-care.
At this time, in the conference room, another man codenamed Leng Spear stood up and said calmly to Qin Youde: "Captain Qin, I just want to know, do we still have a chance to go east?" ”
Qin Youde smiled and affirmed, "I hope there is." ”
"After all, I painted you a big pie."
"Let's talk about stepping on Tokyo to enjoy the cherry blossoms together."
Leng Spear nodded, sat down with his buttocks, and gently stroked his three-edged spear: "Then I'm fine." ”
"We're fine." The rest of the people who had belonged to the army sequence before the catastrophe spoke in unison.
A loud voice echoed in what should have been a suppressed conference room.
The scar on Qin Youde's face trembled: "Don't you ask about the specific content of the mission?" ”
"Team Qin, we can trust you, whatever you say we can do."
"It's nothing more than entering the fog and sharing life and death with those demon cubs, what's there to be afraid of."
"That's it, those people say every day that you are the third generation of the army, but you are on the front line like us all day long, everyone can see it, and you personally lead the team in this matter, just rush to this point, and ask what."
"Things seem to be urgent, otherwise we wouldn't have called us back quickly, let's get ready and set off first, and the specific mission briefing is the same on the way."
The scene of everyone's words dispelled many of the depressions in Qin Youde's heart.
Qin Youde took a deep breath, put his legs together and saluted everyone:
"It is an honor to be a comrade with you!"
