Aurora Soldiers

Chapter 70 Underground
  Just when the monsters in Deyang Elementary School evolved.

Zhang Chengguang and others had stopped for a while before to observe the situation of the monster camp in Deyang Elementary School on the upper floors of the building.

Three men wearing camouflage uniforms, field protective gear, and neat short hair were leaning against the wall, holding tactical telescopes in their hands to clearly see the situation in the camp.

"Damn it, what happened to those monsters? Have they evolved?! After entering that brood-like thing, there were changes! And what the hell is that kind of monster that is so similar to humans?! Just Even evolved monsters kneel down in front of it?!"

The leader, a tall man with sharp and steady eyes, whispered.

"How many days is it now? The progress is much faster than the professors expected."

Another leaner man said in a deep voice.

"The information must be reported to the base as soon as possible. Asheng, please go back and be careful not to be followed by monsters. Old Han and I will stay here and continue to observe."

The tall man at the head said softly.

"Yes! Team leader, Brother Han, please be more careful."

The lean man named He Yongsheng nodded seriously, without saying anything, he quickly picked up his weapon and ran downstairs.

Soon he ran down the tall building and ran into the alley behind him. He was very familiar with the alleys of the old city. His movements were very agile and his lurking skills were very skillful. It looked like he had been trained for a long time. warrior.

After walking about three or four kilometers to the north and approaching the boundary of the new city, he found a manhole cover beside the road in front of a community.

After confirming that there were no enemies around, He Yongsheng opened the manhole cover and entered the manhole cover. Then he quickly moved the manhole cover back to its original position and climbed up the ladder towards the invisible darkness under the manhole cover.

"Who! Password!"

He had only climbed down about ten meters when he heard a low voice coming from the darkness below.

"Seventh Investigation Team, He Yongsheng, password: Peace Talisman!"

He Yongsheng answered immediately, and after receiving the other party's reply, he continued to climb down.

After continuing down for more than ten meters, he gently jumped off the ladder and landed on the ground.

In the darkness, two men, also wearing camouflage uniforms and holding tactical crossbows, were watching him. Next to the two men, there was a heavy iron door.

After confirming his identity, the two men put down the tactical crossbows in their hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Do you have any information?"

one of them whispered.

"There are changes in the monster camp."

He Yongsheng nodded and reported to the other party in detail.

After the report, he saluted and crawled toward the ground again.

One of the two men opened the gate behind him, lit a torch by drilling wood to make fire, and began to quickly move forward along the tunnel that could only accommodate two people side by side.

After walking about one kilometer, the voice asking for the password came again from the darkness ahead. After the man said his name and password, he passed on the information wordlessly and walked back.

Then one of the two men standing guard in the darkness of the tunnel quickly lit a torch and ran behind him, continuing to deliver information.

In this way, this tunnel is one of the farthest exits of the base, and it was passed five or six times. The last intelligence officer entered the base after review and informed the higher-ups in the base.

The base was brightly lit.

This is a huge underground fortification. It is not an ordinary civil air defense project, but a secret-level underground fortification in Guangjiang City. In addition to a few hidden main exits, there are more than a dozen leading to various parts of the new city. Hidden tunnel.

The remnants of the Guangjiang City Security Area are now hiding here.

Not only the troops, but also many survivors in this underground fortification at this moment.

After being forced to move into underground fortifications and the situation stabilized slightly, the soldiers in the garrison area, under the command of the supreme commander, Colonel Luo Anqing, passed through hidden passages to explore the situation of monsters in Guangjiang City while exploring the city. Search for survivors and bring them safely into underground fortifications. Information about changes in monster camps came back from various places in the city, and the underground base had to hold an emergency meeting.

In the underground fortification conference room, torches illuminated the conference room fairly brightly.

Colonel Luo and other commanders, as well as surviving municipal officials, as well as teacher and student representatives from the three universities in Guangjiang University Town, as well as survivor representatives, sat around the conference table and were discussing.

"Have the surviving teachers and students in the university town been evacuated?"

Colonel Luo was a tall, middle-aged man with a serious face. His left hand was bandaged. It seemed that he had been injured in the previous battle. At this time, he turned to look at another middle-aged man and asked.

"There are only the last batch left. With the cooperation of Captain Ning and Teacher Chang, there shouldn't be any surprises."

The middle-aged man whispered.

"Then, let's discuss the monster camp now. I mainly want to hear the opinions of several professors."

Colonel Luo glanced at the old professors who had been talking in low voices since they entered the conference room.

"Colonel Luo, the evolution speed of monsters is beyond our imagination. Now it is almost certain that monsters collect human corpses to extract some kind of power similar to green fluorescence. They may even have mastered some kind of condensation and preservation method. Methods of strength.”

"From the intelligence that came not long ago, we can know that what the soldiers saw was that the monster had undergone tremendous changes in a short period of time after entering the mother nest. We have studied the organs at the back of the monster's head and believe that it The blood spots produced by us humans after absorbing green fluorescence are tissues of the same nature, and can even 'eat' each other, and the difference in monster strength is most likely related to the organ at the back of the head."

"The reason why these individual monsters can undergo huge changes in such a short period of time is most likely because they are in something similar to a mother's nest, and the organs at the back of their heads are instilled with vitality such as green fluorescence, making their The organs at the back of the head grow and develop in a short period of time like human blood spots, which results in their increased strength. Colonel Luo, do you know what this means?"

The representatives of the old professor said excitedly.

"Everyone, don't show off at this time. I'm a rough person, and sometimes my brain just can't turn around."

Colonel Luo rubbed his eyebrows. From the time the disaster struck to now, he had not slept for more than five hours.

"We have said that the organs on the back of the monster's head are similar to the blood spots on us humans. So the organs on the back of the monster's head can grow under the power of the brood. Can we humans use this power to make the blood spots grow?"

Another old professor said in a deep voice.

"That sounds like fantasy."

Colonel Luo and the commanders around him whispered.

"No! No, the brood must have its own operating mechanism. No change occurs out of thin air. It's a simple truth. The brood can breed monsters and promote their evolution, and we can obtain green fluorescence by killing monsters. Then If we abandon the intermediate link of monsters, in a sense, aren't we just robbing the mother's nest of life force?"

"If we can control the technology of converting the vitality of the brood, can we in turn use monsters as nutrients? Can we mass-produce those blood-spotted warriors, instead of just a few individuals such as Captain Ning and Teacher Chang so far? Can you unlock that power?"

"Based on the existing information provided by you, we have temporarily divided the brood nests into three levels: large, medium and small. The changes now are in the large brood nests, but the small brood nests seem to be decomposing human corpses. Is this type of brood nest? It also has the ability to transform vitality? Is it possible for humans to use the transformed vitality? If we can capture a small nest for research, maybe we can gain a lot of unimaginable gains!"

The old professor said.

"Sorry, Professor Gong, the farthest passage of the base can only reach the edge of the old city. Nowadays, the city is full of monsters. It is impossible to capture a small nest. It is foreseeable that if we do that, the combat team will immediately You will be besieged by large-scale monsters, and it will be difficult to survive."

"What we should consider now is how to deal with the new monsters and how to safely send the survivors in the base out of the city. I have a feeling that the city will only become more and more dangerous. Evacuate to rural areas. Maybe it will be safer.”

Colonel Luo sighed and shook his head.

While everyone was discussing, the sky on the ground had completely darkened.

the other side.

Zhang Chengguang and his group in the suburbs had started marching collectively for about two hours and approached the first village near the highway.

"There seems to be a monster camp there? I saw a flesh-and-blood building similar to the one in Deyang Elementary School before, but it seems that the area is not comparable to the one in Deyang Elementary School. It just occupies an ancestral hall in the village?"

Zhang Chengguang looked through the telescope towards the brightly lit monster camp in the village.
