MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 65 under the monument
Under the Memorial Tower, the ruins are broken, and the dark brown blood stains can be seen everywhere, like graffiti randomly swayed by passers-by in the deserted city.
The fat mice burrowed out of the sewers in search of food, and the crows with scarlet eyes stood on the top of the dilapidated memorial tower and croaked recklessly, laughing at the rats who got nothing.
Several figures appeared not far away, scaring away these strange people who did not belong to the city.
"Finally at the memorial tower." Yang Xiaoqian, who was walking at the head of the team, raised his binoculars to observe for a while, then raised his hand and said, "Stop."
A soldier who followed Yang Xiaoqian immediately used the walkie-talkie to convey instructions. After 50 meters, the military Humvee was stopped by the six-person team led by Qian. Then another Humvee stopped at the roadside 300 meters away. Wang Hai got out of the car and found him. Set up the sniper rifle rack after the appropriate position, and assist the observer and driver on the side.
"Wang Hai, did you see that the memorial tower collapsed, like shelling?" Yang Xiaoqian took out his walkie-talkie and asked after fiddling for a while.
"I see, it's not shelling, it's like a large vehicle impact, it's over." Wang Hai's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Large vehicle?" Yang Xiaoqian looked around, but did not see any heavy vehicle, "Maybe it has already driven away. Observe, is there anything unusual?"
"No abnormality around, safe, over."
Yang Xiaoqian looked at Fang Yu, who was sluggish, and said into the walkie-talkie, "Take a rest."
"Finally I can rest." Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and wiped off a dense layer of fine sweat from his forehead.
In order to discover possible variants, every corner needs to be carefully observed, and the observers walking in the first queue must walk.
Although she made up her mind before she set off, Fang Yu's physical fitness couldn't keep up with her determination. If Yang Xiaoqian hadn't given him a rune bracelet in advance, I'm afraid he would have passed out halfway.
"Why do you encounter so few mutants?" Yu Qian, who led his team to support him in the center, left his five team members, stepped on the flying sword and flew to Yang Xiaoqian's side and asked.
Fang Yu also had the same question, adding: "Not only mutants, we have rarely seen ordinary zombies along the way, and we have not seen a single living person at all."
"I don't know." Yang Xiaoqian tore apart a loose betel nut and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing a bitter taste to refresh himself, "Perhaps there are very few mutants in the first place, and it's just luck that we encountered a few in a row."
"It's possible, but it doesn't explain why we haven't seen ordinary zombies and survivors." Fang Yu questioned.
"Let's rest first." Yang Xiaoqian simply avoided answering. There are many possible reasons for this strange phenomenon. Since there is no reasonable speculation, it is not necessary to state all the assumptions.
Fang Yu obediently shut up and did not dare to say more. Yu Qian continued to complain: "This is a complete waste of time, and I will not accompany it if it goes on like this."
Yang Xiaoqian knew that Yu Qian was mostly angry, and said perfunctorily: "I will find a way. Don't be angry. Without Liu Yuanzhou's helicopter to drop flyers, it would still be a waste of time for us to search for the Awakened."
At this time, a voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Dongsan calls Dongyao, and Dongsan calls Dongyao."
After being stunned for a second, Yang Xiaoqian responded, pressed the button and replied, "What's the matter?"
"I found something in the grass next to the pavilion 200 meters from you at 11 o'clock. Finished." After Wang Hai finished speaking, he began to observe the wind speed and humidity. Although there were observers beside him, Wang Hai obviously did not agree with its level.
"Be alert, don't move." Yang Xiaoqian immediately informed the entire team, "Don't make a big move, the other party may not have discovered us, Wang Hai first confirm whether it is a human or a zombie, or other large animals."
"Received, line of sight is blocked, can't confirm, finished."
Fang Yu held his breath and wiped his sweat nervously. This was the first time he had participated in such a formal battle, and he was extremely worried that he would be dragged back.
Yang Xiaoqian had already tested that the Black Phantom could not leave him more than 100 meters away during the repeated experiments on Paradise Island, which meant that Yang Xiaoqian had to walk at least 100 meters in the direction of the pavilion before the Black Phantom could reach the grass beside the pavilion.
"Fang Yu followed me and advanced 150 meters to the left of the pavilion. The second team turned off the fire and walked to our current position to stand by. Yu Qian was in the middle to support, and Wang Hai was ready to fire at any time." Yang Xiaoqian was decisive before spending too much time thinking about it. Ordered.
If you go straight to the gazebo, let alone 100 meters, if you can’t walk 50 meters, the other party will definitely know that it is directed at him, so Yang Xiaoqian chooses to go to the left of the gazebo. If there are survivors hiding in the grass, the other party is likely to be deceived by the non-aggressive appearance of Yang Xiaoqian and Fang Yu. If there is a mutant species hidden in the grass, with a distance of several tens of meters, Wang Hai and Fang Yu must attack, Black Phantom must be defended, and Yu Qian's cover and support must be retreated, so there is basically no danger.
"Dong Liang received it, it's over."
"Dongsan received, it's over."
"Fang Yu, cover the bracelet and the reflective objects on your body with cloth, try to walk under the shadow of the eaves."
Wang Hai looked away from the scope and looked through the binoculars. Yang Xiaoqian's clumsy and clumsy concealment made him laugh, but after laughing, he sighed in his heart: This guy who always talks about safety and excludes danger has finally grown up. Some leaders have demeanor.
A qualified team leader does not have to do everything himself, nor does he have to deliberately rush to the forefront, nor does he have to put the interests and safety of every team member above himself. But a qualified team leader must be clear about the positioning of each team member and arrange the most suitable people in the most suitable positions in order to create the greatest value for the entire team - no matter whether this position is dangerous or not, no matter the person who is suitable for this position who is it.
When he finally moved slowly to a suitable position, Yang Xiaoqian immediately summoned the black ghost, "Hey, hey!" As soon as the black ghost appeared, he ran to the pavilion with a strange cry that only Yang Xiaoqian could hear, with a pair of small wings flapping on his back. Fanning and not knowing if it helps it run.
"All units are ready, listen to my orders." Yang Xiaoqian was only a few dozen meters away from the pavilion, and Yang Xiaoqian tried his best to keep his voice down.
Yu Qian's flying sword and corpse rope swam in the shadows, approaching silently, Wang Hai touched the trigger with his index finger, and the grenade launcher of the second team was also ready.
Fang Yu, who was standing beside Yang Xiaoqian, sipped his dry and cracked lower lip into his mouth, a thunder brewing in his body, ready to go.
The battle is about to break out.
"Wait." Yang Xiaoqian stopped.
Immediately after, a fat figure flew out of the grass, hung upside down and danced in the air, screaming and screaming.
"Try it." Yang Xiaoqian didn't think the fat man was a mutant disguised as a human, but to be on the safe side, he told Yu Qian to try it out.
Feijian shot straight at the target's forehead, then suddenly slowed down and stopped in front of the fat man's face, and then the wind blowing a dense layer of fine sweat on the fat man's forehead, turning it into a bead of sweat along the fat man's forehead. Round face dripping.
Fatty froze for a few seconds, only to realize that he was still alive, and he shouted like a lamb to be slaughtered again: "Help, help, don't kill me!"
"It should be no problem, it's safe." Yang Xiaoqian breathed a sigh of relief, and the black ghost put the fat man on the ground gently and returned to Yang Xiaoqian's side, gradually dissipating.
Looking at the strange flower lying on the ground shivering and not afraid to look up, thinking about the atmosphere of being in front of a big enemy before, and the preparations that took a lot of time, the entire Dawning team felt a little depressed.
"What's your name? Why are you hiding in the grass?" Under Yang Xiaoqian's signal, Fang Yu raised a small portable speaker and shouted at the guy who was still lying on the spot dozens of meters away.
"Don't eat me, don't eat me, my meat is too fat, my meat is not tasty." The incoherent answers popped out of the fat man's mouth one after another, causing several soldiers who were approaching him to take him back to look at each other.
"Why does he think we will eat him at all? Do we look like zombies?" Yang Xiaoqian frowned and muttered to himself, "What's going on between Zhonghua Road and the memorial tower, strange, too strange..."
