Chapter 345: Chapter 341: News
Su Changxing said sowhat unexpectedly:
"I didn’t expect you to charge directly. That’s not like you."
Zhu Wenwu is a cautious and ticulous person, sowhat similar in character to him. People like them often avoid doing risky, unknown things.
Zhu Wenwu showed a serious expression and deliberated:
"I said, this ti I will leave no room, regardless of life or death."
Su Changxing handed over a bottle of water and shook his head:
"I won’t let you die unless I die in there too."
Zhu Wenwu smiled, turned his head, and said, "Those three people seem not dead yet, just seriously injured."
Su Changxing nodded: "Hmm, let’s go take a look. They might have important information."
The tall dead tree disintegrated, turning into pieces of various sizes, while the sand buried most of the huge body again, leaving only part of the black skin exposed.
If it weren’t for seeing the full appearance of this creature earlier, it would be impossible to imagine that it was the skin of a monster.
The three people were all lying on the ground motionless, with one already dead and the other two seriously injured, with only a little ti left.
Su Changxing checked their bodies and found branches inserted from their back into their bodies, firmly fixed without any way to pull them out.
If Su Changxing and his team hadn’t co, they would beco part of the tree-like human.
Tree-like humans are ford by massive amounts of life stacked together, appearing powerful but extrely unstable, with obvious flaws.
The man with longer hair half-opened his eyes, his mouth moved as if trying to say sothing, but no sound ca out, just a few blood foams spilled.
Su Changxing thought for a mont and said: "Are you the people sent out to convey ssages?"
A trace of excitent flashed in the man’s eyes, surprised that Su Changxing guessed it right away, and he nodded quickly.
Then a hint of loneliness flashed across his face; it was useless, he couldn’t make any sounds, everything was futile.
At the last mont of his life, he held only one last obsession—to pass on the information brought out from inside.
Lin Xiuyu stood behind, looked at Huang Biao, and asked: "Can you save him? At least let him speak."
Huang Biao thought for a mont and said:
"Saving him is a bit difficult, his life force is severely depleted, but letting him talk is not a problem."
Actually, he could be saved.
But the cost for him would be too high, and the chance for treatnt needs to be reserved for us Extraordinary.
It’s harsh, but unavoidable.
Lin Xiuyu nodded and said indifferently:
"Just let him speak, he won’t survive anyway."
Huang Biao placed his palm on the man’s abdon and poured so water on it, and imdiately, the water flowed into his body through the wounds as if it gained life force.
A few minutes later, the man opened his eyes wide, appeared more spirited, looked around at the people, and asked suspiciously:
"Who are you?"
Lin Xiuyu squatted down, looked at him, and said chokingly:
"It’s , what’s the situation inside? What ssage did you bring?"
"Deputy Lin... Why did you co in?"
The man showed a puzzled expression.
Lin Xiuyu said with a calm face: "Since you can co in, why can’t I? Besides, I’m carrying an important mission."
The man was silent for a mont and said slowly:
"We encountered a large number of New Humans at the target location, those monsters, this is their self-proclaid na."
"Most of us are already rotting, facing the siege of these New Humans, we could only retreat. Luckily, the Extraordinary team and the team leader arrived in ti, and we managed to occupy Lan feng Town."
"But we suffered heavy casualties, and later, most of us died painfully from radiation."
"When the three of us left, those New Humans attacked us again, and only about two hundred of us were still alive."
Lin Xiuyu stared at him and said: "The team leader, did he say anything?"
The man coughed a mouthful of blood and said with a forlorn expression:
"The team leader said our direction was wrong, all this is futile, there’s no need to send people inside to die, there’s no need to co inside."
Would Zhong Jueqing say such a thing?
Su Changxing’s heart sank, fearing unpredicted conditions had unfolded.
But if they were giving up, why did Zhong Jueqing and the others not leave here...
Lin Xiuyu’s eyes narrowed, smiled, and said: "Alright, we got it, thank you."
The man closed his eyes, sinking into silence, awaiting death, seeming extraordinarily serene.
Lin Xiuyu stood up, turned to Su Changxing, and whispered: "It’s impossible, there’s no way the boss would cancel the operation so easily."
Huang Biao grinned and retorted: "Why not? This is soone from your side, the ssage he brought, yet you don’t believe it."
They had just co in and already encountered this kind of monster, undoubtedly bringing enormous pressure, it was indeed a matter of life and death, if it held no aning, there would be no reason to proceed.
Su Changxing waved his hand and said calmly:
"Let’s go and check the situation before drawing conclusions."
Though it seed they had a way out and ti, in reality, they did not, and perhaps one hesitation would lead the situation in another direction.
They must be decisive.
He estimated that Zhong Jueqing might have realized that even the Extraordinary couldn’t reach deep within the No-Man’s Land, unable to get to the Energy Station, hence transmitting such a ssage.
It’s very despairing.
Yet Zhong Jueqing had not fully given up, still searching for a breakthrough, and therefore stayed behind.
Lin Xiuyu’s attitude was more resolute than Su Changxing imagined, entirely with a mindset as if he didn’t plan to survive.
Or perhaps he had other plans.
Huang Biao said nothing more, turned, and said: "Since that’s the case, let’s continue, we can’t afford any delay."
Everyone could feel waves of discomfort, coming from the Extraordinary’s instinct to perceive danger, this intuition reminding them that their bodies were gradually entering a dire status.
Lin Xiuyu glanced at the living yet soon-to-die man on the ground, kept silent, and left with the others.
On the road were bodies being eaten by Zombies, mostly people from the Security Bureau, no signs of New Humans.
As ti passed, Lin Xiuyu’s face gradually turned grim, dark lines appeared on his face, resembling rough tattoos.
Zhou An couldn’t help but say: "Can you still walk? If not, I’ll carry you."
Lin Xiuyu focused on the front, shook his head, and said:
"It’s not a big problem, the strength of my body isn’t diminishing, even increasing, this is rather odd."
Su Changxing looked at his phone and said indifferently:
"Your problem is serious, your body’s balance is gradually being destroyed. When it reaches a certain level, all that awaits you is death."
Lin Xiuyu took out a notebook and a pen from his backpack and started writing and drawing on it, asking:
"What if I beco an Extraordinary?"
Su Changxing turned his head to look at him and affird:
"Then you should be able to live a bit longer, but it depends on the situation... What are you doing?"
The sunlight had disappeared, and the surroundings fell into gloom, unable to see how many stones were on the ground; Lin Xiuyu’s eyes were glistening with azure light, looking particularly beautiful.
Yes, only "beautiful" could describe it, that kind of beauty which attracts living beings.
He was staring at the notebook and quietly said: "Predict... predicting the probability, the probability I can survive, to speculate on our chances of success."
