Chapter Seventy-Nine: They All Come Back Alive
Military bases are divided according to their status and role, including strategic bases, campaign bases, and tactical bases; According to the use, there are operational bases, training bases, supply bases, and test bases; According to the branch of the military, there are army bases, naval bases, air force bases, strategic missile bases, and so on.
According to the intelligence in the lighthouse, this should be a strategic army supply base that was made public after the disaster, precisely because of the excellent terrain, the inland location, and the large amount of military supplies inside, which is just right to be used as a large shelter.
This is why it attracts a large number of refugees from the surrounding cities.
It is impossible to count the exact number of refugees who arrived here, and it is not known how many refugees were taken with them when they finally fled, and how many were left behind.
The walls around were riddled with bullet holes, the inside of the building, which was supposed to be a big box, was in tatters, and the floor was covered with sculpture-like flesh and dirt.
To be reasonable, Wu He has seen such a thing as meat and soil before. There were quite a few doorways to the early vault where they were before.
However, compared to the relatively intact meat and soil there, the meat and soil here are all mutilated, and there are large and small gaps on the body, and it is even more common to fight from the waist, as if this group of people are frantically picking up guns and fighting each other while being sucked on the essence of life.
There is bright sunlight shining through the door, but the internal environment still gives people a gloomy, desolate, and eerie feeling......
It was as if we had entered a strange resurgence of ghosts......
Gently twitching the wings of his nose, a faint scarlet breath directly penetrated into the tip of Wu He's nose, and suddenly fear, despair, crying, praying, anger, roaring, all kinds of chaotic sounds sounded in Wu He's ears, shaking his ears with some tinnitus. These are all memories of the flesh before he died......
And Wu He's abnormality was not discovered by the people around him, looking at the large pile of meat and soil in the building, Mark also frowned slightly.
This time, the lighthouse's command did make a mistake in intelligence judgment. But they can't be blamed entirely for that. The lighthouse's camera, though very sophisticated, does not have a perspective effect.
Objects such as Polar Eaters, Flesh, and Backbones are also not likely to be detected by infrared or ultraviolet rays. And buildings like this are full of flesh and dirt, but the outside is clean as if nothing has happened, even Mark is rare. Those guys who have more theory than practice are naturally even more difficult to judge.
It is not incomprehensible that there will be some mistakes, which are within the acceptable range of Mark.
Leaving a squad of Hunters to look after the Dust Settlers for the time being, Mark ordered the rest of the Hunters to split into six groups to explore separately, while he himself walked into the building in front of him with a bunch of men......
As for Wu He, according to Mark's idea, he was assigned to the other teams of the Hunter Squad. This can also ensure that in the event of a sudden crisis, each team has a strong combat power as a guarantee.
Wu He naturally has no opinion on this, and the guys who have been trained by Wu He in the lighthouse before naturally have no opinion.
After all, they are all convinced of Wu He's combat effectiveness, and the few people next to Wu He are basically the ones who ask him for advice on the lighthouse, and they are basically nineteen or twenty years old. On the lighthouse, there is basically one boss in one sentence, so there is no thorn in the coffin to question Wu He's command......
The place that Wu He came to explore was also similar to Mark's, it was also a building, the stairs were not as high as the building was divided into four floors, but it covered a large area, and it looked much larger than Wu He's university dormitory.
The only difference between this building and Mark's side is that the doors are closed. It's completely impossible to see what's going on inside.
In this regard, Wu He glanced at the rusty and shapeless iron door hinge, and did not agree to the request of the member of the hunter team next to him to forcibly break the door, and with a sweep of his eyes, he cast his eyes on the window above that should be located on the third floor.
There are not many windows in this building, there are only corridors on both sides, and there are windows in the middle, two of which are closed tightly, and looking at the rusty hinges, the opening movement should not be much smaller than the door.
There is no anti-theft net in the window, but if you think about it, it is also a military base with anti-theft net? How do these two things sound and why don't they match......
There is only a location on the third floor, and the entire window is directly missing, which is a good entrance, of course, only for Wu He......
Based on the tragic situation in the building on Mark's side, it can be basically determined that there must be a Polar Eater in the military base.
Even according to the experience of the two predecessors, when bad luck falls from the sky, it is not impossible for a powerful devourer that is comparable to the Calyx Beast or even the Giant Tooth Double-Jawed Beast in the original book.
At such a time, making a big move, Wu He simply didn't want his own life......
Therefore, Wu He waved his hand to let the surrounding members of the Spirits Squad disperse a little bit, and then kicked the wall with both feet, and jumped up in an anti-human posture, and directly grabbed the edge of the window with one hand, and then suddenly stood on the frame of the window.
After turning it over like this, the hunters around today's operation were stunned for a while. This window is less than ten meters from the ground, and it just goes up? What the fuck is this capable of humans?!
At this time, there were still some young hunters in this group, and only then did they realize that Wu He was still merciful on the lighthouse. Otherwise, with this skill, let alone asking for advice, they are afraid that they will not be able to hold up for a round......
Without paying attention to the jaws of the team members below falling to the ground, and came to the window, Wu He cast his eyes on the building, and then instantly gasped......
"Damn, I know my instincts are accurate, but should I be so accurate? You don't have to be so accurate......"
Wu He had previously thought that there was a high probability of a powerful Pole Eater in this military base.
Okay, should we say that sincerity is spirituality? Just now, Wu He was still thinking about it, and now he will send it directly to his face......
"Damn, I thank you, thief."
Looking inward along Wu He's line of sight, he saw that on the walls of the corridor that should have been neat, there were thick twisted tentacles like blood vessels stuck to the dusty wall paper like wall creepers, and if you look at the disgusting flesh tentacles to the middle, you will find a slender huge flesh cocoon that seems to be formed, just hovering in this winding staircase.
Wu He hadn't seen this thing before, but that didn't mean he didn't know what it was......
This is the cocoon that Eater used to evolve! It's a evolving Pole Eater!
As for why Wu He was able to tell that this thing was still evolving, rather than a shell left over from the metamorphosis, it was naturally that this thing was still fucking moving.
A little red light crawled up and down on the meat cocoon like a centipede, and in that red light, Wu He felt a familiar breath, which was the breath of life essence metabolized into scarletin......
By this time, I finally knew why there were no windows on this floor, and I looked at Wu He's feet not far away, where a squeezed, twisted window frame was still lying there, and the broken glass was all over the floor.
What's special is that the window can't withstand the pull of the big thing below, and it is directly torn off......
Suddenly, Wu He felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn't act recklessly just now, otherwise, if he smashed some flesh and soil just now and disturbed a few Ridge Gu, the Ridge Gu would pass on pheromones and let the big guy inside run out, and I am afraid that Wu He would only be able to run away......
If you can't run away, maybe you'll have to stay here......
Compared to facing Long Right directly, there is still room for maneuver here, and if you put your life here, it will be too wronged......
"! That's a lot of luck, big prizes! Should I really buy a lottery ticket......"
After gritting his teeth, Wu He jumped directly from the upper floor......
From the inside of the external observation building, even if Wu He's five senses were strengthened, he didn't feel any problems, if it weren't for Wu He's cautious going up to the window to check it, the huge movement generated by opening the door would have directly disturbed this transformed big guy.
According to the intelligence inside the lighthouse, this kind of transformation of the Extreme Devourer is not like the upgrade of the fantasy world, it is difficult to be promoted again after interruption, and it may even regress in strength......
The exact analogy of this thing is more similar to animal hibernation. However, animal hibernation is to reduce the action and sleep through the winter, while the Pole Eater should be to save the life essence consumed by the action, concentrate on the early transformation of the body, and use the least energy to transform itself into the strongest......
But just like a hibernating snake that will raise its head to bite you when disturbed, it can crawl back into its nest to continue hibernation. After this thing is disturbed, it is fully capable of crawling out of the cocoon to kill everyone, re-eat and crawl back into the cocoon to continue its transformation.
Thinking back to the giant cocoon that occupied the entire fourth-floor corridor, which seemed very slender and roughly looked like it should be nearly thirty meters long, Wu He estimated the size of the Pole Devourer Beast inside, and immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Looking at Wu He who jumped from the building, the surrounding team members also immediately surrounded him and obeyed Wu He's command.
These guys are all very excited, like this kind of very closed building, usually there are a lot of materials inside. The more supplies they get, the more credits they get at the end of the settlement.
They can't wait to make a big splash and get back to the lighthouse and spend as much as they want......
However, Wu He did not lead them into the building to search as they wished, but directly pulled all the members of his team to speed up their pace and stay away from the building......
Even when the surrounding team members asked him what was going on, Wu He didn't answer directly, but just walked forward with everyone with his head down.
It wasn't until he came to a playground across the building from the Surprise Building, which was supposed to be a garage or something, that Wu He took out a square object similar to a mobile phone and handed it to the dissatisfied members of the hunter team around him......
And seeing the situation in the building, this group of guys also gasped.
Made, it's good that I didn't go in, otherwise this big guy would come out, and wouldn't they be wiped out......
However, after learning about the situation inside, these wilderness hunter members under Wu He's hands also looked at each other, and some didn't know what to do. After all, such things as encountering the Extreme Devourer in the midst of transformation have only been heard of in textbooks. I've heard of a case at the lighthouse that almost wiped out the former Hunter team, but in the end, it was the support of the ionic cannon on the lighthouse that paralyzed the lighthouse's power supply system for several hours before half of the hunters evacuated.
And the value of this case is similar to that of the king-level Eater in the VR simulation of the lighthouse, with one purpose - to make the hunters dispel any idea of fighting against the King-level Eater.
But their hunt had only just begun, and they hadn't alarmed the transforming cocoon. Could it be that after spending so much energy, they just came down for a walk? Looking for a view?
Wu He maintained a cautious attitude towards this. It's better to come once in vain than to wipe out the whole army and even use ion cannons......
For Wu He in this regard, he is not too greedy, if he can ensure the safety of his life, the current action to maximize Wu He's interests is to let the lighthouse use the ion cannon to temporarily kill the transforming Pole Eater and take away his spiritual breath seeds.
The life essence contained in the spirit breath seeds of ordinary devouring beasts is very considerable, and this kind of transformation will only become more powerful. It may be enough for him to absorb it for two and a half years......
But the biggest problem now is that he can't guarantee the safety of his life, according to the experience of several seniors, this is only changing, in fact, it is very likely that he has killed and robbed after a month and a half. The future is bright, but I'm afraid I'm going to die here......
At this time, I am afraid that I don't feel that I have lived too long......
Raising his hand and taking out the walkie-talkie that Mark sent when he led the team away, Wu He began to call......
"Call Captain Mark, repeat, call Captain Mark, can you hear me? The Wu He team in charge of the northwest construction requested an immediate evacuation ......"
"Roger, Mark receiving, Wu He, what's going on over there? In such a hurry? ”
"A Transforming Pole Eater was found inside the Northwest Building, a large creature nearly thirty meters long......"
"What?! Seriously! ”
But at this moment, a huge blind sound came from the other side of the walkie-talkie, and there seemed to be a huge roar of a lifetime, and the only thing left was a rustling of electricity......
"Hey! Feed! Mark, Mark, can you still hear it? ”
"Damn it!"
almost didn't drop the walkie-talkie in his hand directly to the ground, Wu He hurriedly connected to other people's channels. However, all I heard was the rustle of electricity, and there was no reply at all......
"Fuck, what's the situation?! It's all wiped out, no, it's not so tragic in the original hospital! ”
"Is there any device here that can shield radio signals?! The group strayed in? No, it was fine before! ”
There were many thoughts in his heart, but Wu He was not sloppy in his actions, and with a wave of his hand, he opened the command of the hunters beside him.
"You, you, you still have you, you inform the convoy stationed in the rear to quickly transfer over and re-reorganize."
"You stay here and watch the building first! This grenade is for you, and this wire, set up a trap a little, if that big guy rushes out, you just throw the grenade at him not to kill it, just make some movement, the bigger the movement, the better, and then run quickly! Take care of yourself! ”
"Also, you, you, you, the three of you quickly go to the direction where the other hunter teams are to check the situation, just take a look from afar."
"If it's okay, tell them about the situation on Mark's side, and if there is a fight, leave immediately and go to the temporary base!"
"Move fast! Time is never on the side of humans on Earth now! ”
"If the mission must be completed according to the order, otherwise, ...... after returning to the lighthouse"
Several hunters around him, although they had some objections in their hearts, nodded and didn't say anything, but one of them asked:
"But what are you doing, boss?"
"Me? I'm going to support Captain Mark and see what's going on on Captain Mark's side......"
Looking at Wu He, who was clenching his fists and was about to turn away, several of the team members present shrank their noses, and it was obvious that they also understood what Wu He was referring to.
Seeing this scene, Wu He nodded with satisfaction, but before leaving, he still turned around and instructed the last sentence.
"Be careful, they'll all come back alive!"
Hearing this, all the members of the Hunter Squad were slightly stunned, but they all responded with fists!
"Yes! Top dog!! ”x8
