Chapter 14: Spirits Riot

The remaining dozen or so people in the chamber were all silent, looking at each other, as if trying to find the answer to their question in the eyes of the other.

"Help me...... Help me! ……”

Just when everyone didn't know what to do, Ivan's walkie-talkie suddenly heard a very clear cry for help.

It was clearly a message from a member of the vent, presumably in a panic after being attacked.

"Quick! Pull the safety rope on the rail and see if you can pull him over. ”

Ivan made a quick decision and ordered directly.

Several of the personnel guarding the entrance of the cave were already dispossessed, and they only instinctively obeyed Ivan's orders, but even if they tried their best, the slide in the vent was like a thousand pounds of weight.

"Bang! …… Boom! ……”

Several gunshots roared through the vents, causing pain in everyone's eardrums, and several people pulling the rope instantly leaned back and fell to the ground with the rope.

The rope was pulled, and it seemed that the survivor in the vent should have broken the safety rope at the other end of the slide, and everyone hurriedly continued to pull hard.

Ten seconds later, a bloodied man was pulled over, and everyone rushed to save him, only to find a corpse with lost legs.

The flesh and blood at the fracture turned outward, hideous, more like being bitten by some kind of fierce beast.

It was clear that the gunfire was the last image of the last survivor fighting the beast, and the rope at the other end of the slide could have been broken by a gun or bitten by a beast.

Seeing such a tragic scene, the little tiger who was greatly agitated seemed to remember some past events, and took the Gatling in his hand and stuffed it into the ventilation duct, and with a dull roar, a large number of bullet casings poured down from the hole in the ceiling like a rain curtain.

"Little Tiger, stop shooting and save ammunition."

A few seconds later, Jiang Yingxue coldly ordered.

Now that the situation is critical, only the Gatling in Xiaohu's hands can form an effective killing and suppression effect, Jiang Yingxue must not let this precious power be wasted casually because of anger.

The unwilling little tiger gasped and pulled Gatling back, looking at the hot weapon in his hand, he didn't know what to do for a while.

Now that they are suddenly trapped in this Jedi, the only exit is guarded by an unknown number of terrorist threats outside, and it seems that death is the only way out.

Anger is also a manifestation of chaos, a concentrated outburst of fear that has accumulated before, and a little panic mood swing can be seen on everyone's face to a greater or lesser extent.

"What now?"

Jiang Yingxue turned her head and asked again, as if she was asking Ivan, and as if she was asking Bai Ning, without the slightest panic, but she could see that she was in a bad mood.

"There are no secret passages, the only exit is the ventilation tunnel.

If there is no chaos outside, we may still be able to ask them to dig a hole above us to rescue us, but even if there are survivors outside, I am afraid that they will no longer obey our commands. ”

Under Bai Ning's gaze, Ivan said this sentence with a little frustration, a very obvious context.

Either you rush out of the ventilation tunnel with your life, or you are trapped here and wait for death.

Ivan was also sharing the hardships with everyone at this time, and it seemed that he would no longer be deceived, and this basic inference made the atmosphere in the semi-secret room even more deadly.

"Then let's get out. I'm in front of the way. ”

After a moment of silence, Xiaohu, who had already been agitated, took the lead in expressing his position.

However, his remarks were actually no different from sending him to death in the ears of everyone, and he was quickly stopped by Ah Long waving his hand.

"Ivan, where does the upper end of this ventilation tunnel lead? Is it possible to walk through the tunnel and leave in reverse? ”

This is a fairly simple logical deduction, but for a secret base that has been abandoned for decades, it is difficult to ensure the integrity of the vents, and now Bai Ning is only trying his best to figure out a way to bring it up.

"I don't know.

I only know the existence of this tunnel itself, and I don't know the exact structure of the entire ventilation tunnel. ”

Ivan replied truthfully, once again falling silent in the field.

"Check your equipment, if there's no other way, you'll have to leave down the ventilation tunnel."

It is a Jedi in itself, no amount of discussion will be of any benefit, it will only allow more biochemical beasts to invade through the tunnel, since all the ways out point to the ventilation tunnel, Jiang Yingxue's statement is also very decisive.

"Check the equipment, let's get out of the ventilation tunnel."

Ivan also knew that this was the last chance, so he could only force a mental order, but after this chaos, Ivan's authority was obviously greatly impacted, and the feedback from his subordinates was unusual.

It is even conceivable that many people should be very disgusted with Ivan's insistence on staying here, and he could have left early, but he wanted to stay forcibly.

Missed the best exit window and killed so many people.

"For those who are able to leave here, the bonus will be doubled tenfold, and the pension for other sacrifices will be doubled."

For outlaws, only money is the only source of motivation in a desperate situation, and Jiang Yingxue's encouragement made everyone excited, but it was only a momentary excitement.

The current situation is no less than nine deaths, money is indeed a good thing, I am afraid that I will not spend my life if I have a life.

What's more, whether or not you can leave here alive is also the biggest question!

"Hurry up. The boss has sent out bounties, what are you waiting for? ”

Ivan took advantage of Jiang Yingxue's east wind to quickly urge, and at this time his tone did not dare to be harsh, so he could only pretend to be in momentum, showing an overall posture full of confidence.

His men all glanced at Ivan angrily and began to quickly inspect the equipment in their hands.

In order to prevent a possible collapse, two oil drills were specially transported in, which was very conducive to chiseling the final vents, which was a blessing in misfortune.

However, this kind of thing was too cumbersome in the tunnel environment, and it had to be placed at the front of the line, which made everyone very annoyed.

The way in is more than 100 meters, and I don't know how many meters there are when I climb out of the base, and it is really difficult to carry this thing of more than 40 catties.

In addition to the transfer of equipment, the order of the team also needs to be finalized, according to the general process, this kind of thing can be arranged by Ivan alone, but his subordinates have already shown a very obvious antipathy for this.

The reason is also very simple, the crisis comes from the back of the tunnel, whoever is ranked last, the first to die is likely to be him.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of unpleasant mood swing does not need to be taken too seriously, but in the overall environment of the tunnel, as long as someone has a grudge, it is likely to shoot the person in front of them before they die.

The personnel in the back are also related to the responsibility of defending against the crisis after the break, and it is impossible to surrender the guns, which will only provoke them to be more dissatisfied.

In the face of a huge crisis, everyone's desire to survive is equal, and the lower echelons of the team are also on the verge of mutiny under absolute pressure.

Forcible ignorance and repression can lead to uncontainable civil strife.

Moreover, the last person is the sequential logic of tunnel escape, no matter how many people are killed, the remaining people will eventually have to face this problem.

All of a sudden, the ranks were at odds over priorities and were on the verge of irreconcilable civil strife.

"The problem of sorting the teams, let's solve it by drawing lots."

This kind of internal hidden danger always has to be faced, rather than waiting for the moment of active outbreak, it is better to take the initiative to strangle it in the cradle state.

Bai Ning's suggestion directly gave up his inherent prioritization power, and may even lead to his own unlucky bastard at the end of the queue due to luck, this kind of selfless behavior that takes into account the overall situation makes Ivan's subordinates show surprised looks.

Being able to be treated well, Ivan's subordinates looked at Bai Ning with a little more admiration.

Bai Ning can sense the abnormality of the current team, and can quickly give solutions to strengthen the cohesion of the team, Jiang Yingxue appreciates this very much, but the risk of drawing lots is indeed too great.

Although Jiang Yingxue dares to explore all kinds of ruins in person, this does not mean that she can be fearless of life and death, let alone like this kind of death that depends on luck.

After repeatedly looking at Bai Ning at this time, Jiang Yingxue pouted and smiled, with a little banter in her coldness, because she felt that Bai Ning would definitely not let the situation in the field go uncontrollable.

There will definitely be cannon fodder on this escape trip, but it will definitely not be him Bai Ning, let alone the key person in this group of people.

Bai Ning's seemingly fair lottery proposal, this move that seemed to win the hearts of Ivan's subordinates, must have hidden some ulterior secrets.

"Good. I also agree with the draw. ”

Jiang Yingxue's statement at this time fell in Ivan's eyes, making his eyelids jump for no reason, this kind of confident behavior that is not only courageous at all, there must be some secret hidden in it.

Could it be that Bai Ning would cheat in the draw?

However, cheating in such an environment is completely unwise, not only because of the high risk of exposure, but also in the uncontrollable turmoil of the team.

Even to put it mildly, once Bai Ning cheats, he will be black-shot, and with the style of Ivan's group of outlaws, he will definitely pull Bai Ning as a backing when his life is threatened.

At the port where Ivan was suspicious, Bai Ning's things for drawing lots had also been made, and more than a dozen notes of different lengths were held in Bai Ning's hands, and the order of the team was finally arranged according to the order of length.

The note was pinched by Bai Ning's left hand at the bottom, and the top was covered with his right hand, and it was also drawn together when drawing lots, and it was completely impossible to judge the length by the characteristics of the note, which was very fair.

When everyone showed the length of their notes, a very strange scene appeared, and several of Ivan's men appeared at the end of the team in succession.

This is true in terms of probability, but it smells of conspiracy everywhere.
