The end of the world is approaching, I'm handing myself over to the country.

Why aren't he and Pan Gu bound by this rule...?

In Lin Mo's heart, this question was like a thorn, making him somewhat uneasy.

He stared at the sparrow, waiting for an explanation.

A sparrow is standing on the shelf.

The light around him flickered.

This was a sign he had never seen before; he seemed to be resisting something.

A moment later, the sparrow exclaimed in surprise: "This...this is impossible!"

The sparrow's voice trembled slightly as it continued to deny a fact.

The rules are absolute; nothing can be above them.

Lin Mo didn't speak, but just stared at him intently.

He waited for the sparrow to give him an answer.

The sparrow's body swayed slightly.

It appears to be engaged in some kind of intense internal struggle.

After a moment, it spoke again.

"But I think what you said... does make sense," the sparrow said softly.

[But if Ainz Ooal Gown isn't Ainz Ooal Gown, then who is he?]

Lin Mo shrugged, his movements swift and decisive.

"You're asking me?"

"That's what I wanted to ask you too."

"You can't do this right! You missed such important information?"

The sparrow froze on the spot.

Suddenly, his expression turned to terror, and the data streams on his body began to flash wildly.

He remained silent for a long time, so long that the light emanating from him dimmed.

Finally acknowledging the situation: "I don't know why either?"

The sparrow's voice lowered: "But I can feel... my abilities are inexplicably weakening..."

As she spoke, Sparrow looked at Lin Mo: "Although I have no evidence, I feel that my changes are related to you."

Lin Mo looked at the sparrow and examined it from head to toe.

"Could it be that the machine is old and worn out? Why don't you try restarting it?"

Sparrow: [What do you take me for?!]

Lin Mo looked helpless and said, "Then there's nothing I can do."

sparrow:【......】

Lin Mo didn't pay much attention to the sparrow.

If his guess was correct.

The purpose of the Bone King's trip was to find Zhang Heng.

Ainz Ooal Gown knew what he was doing, so he sent the materials, intending to give Zhang Heng a share as well.

Lin Mo tapped his fingertips on the windowsill.

Lin Mo didn't care about that.

Zhang Heng is, after all, human. Whether he likes it or not, as long as his strength increases, he can help Elder Chi share the burden, so this is not a bad thing.

......

The roar of the helicopter filled the entire cabin, its huge rotors churning the airflow and emitting a deafening roar.

Inside the cabin, however, the atmosphere was somewhat somber.

Chen Feng leaned back in his seat, holding his phone, the screen flashing lines of encrypted data.

He didn't look at the rapidly receding clouds outside the window, but instead scanned the new team members in front of him.

Li Yuanguang, Wu Ziming, Jin Feihong, Yu Wei, Sun Miao, Liu Chao.

These individuals are all geniuses selected from countless elite warriors in the Dragon Kingdom.

Some of them are naturally inclined to be friendly, while others possess extraordinary spiritual talents; each of them has a bright future.

But they also lacked the most important thing: a lack of understanding between them.

This is the first joint mission since the team was formed.

Chen Feng turned off his phone screen, and the phone's light dimmed, revealing his expressionless face.

Chen Feng's gaze swept over the people around him, clearly reaching everyone's ears.

"This time, the authorities assigned us to work together, and I was chosen as the team leader."

"I hope this team doesn't make too much noise."

In short, simple and direct, it seemed to lower the temperature inside the cabin by several degrees.

Li Yuanguang and the others exchanged glances but remained silent.

They were all official soldiers, and obedience to orders was ingrained in their very nature.

Becoming a strong person might breed some arrogance, but in front of Chen Feng, their arrogance is nothing.

Because the person in front of him was Chen Feng, the captain of the Spark Squad.

In their circle, that name is an insurmountable mountain.

This may be their first time meeting Chen Feng, but they have heard his story and achievements countless times.

"Understood!" Li Yuanguang was the first to respond, a faint arc of electricity flashing around his body.

"Yes!" Wu Ziming replied succinctly.

The others nodded in agreement.

Sun Miao suddenly puffed out his chest, snorted coldly, and swept his unfriendly gaze over the crowd.

"Anyone who dares to disobey Captain Chen and act on their own will face consequences; don't blame me for showing no mercy these past few days!"

After saying that, Sun Miao turned to look at Chen Feng, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

For him, nothing was more exciting than going on a mission with his idol.

Every word Chen Feng uttered was the truth.

Liu Chao silently wiped his throwing knife, glancing speechlessly at Sun Miao.

To get to know each other better, the six of them have been living and eating together these past few days.

These days, Sun Miao talks about Chen Feng all the time, and his life goal is to surpass Chen Feng.

Therefore, his current statement is not surprising at all.

Seeing that there was no noise in the group, Chen Feng continued to speak.

Turn your phone back on and share a file with everyone.

"This is the latest intelligence from the official sources."

"The situation currently facing the Holy Elephant Kingdom can be basically confirmed as a zombie virus, but the specific details are unclear."

"This virus is extremely infectious. If the blood or saliva of zombies comes into contact with wounds or eyes, there is a very high probability of infection."

"Of course, the most direct way is to be bitten or scratched."

Chen Feng spoke slowly, making sure everyone could hear him clearly.

"Once infected, the golden time for rescue is three hours. If a primary antidote is not administered within three hours, the infected person will be completely transformed, and there will be no possibility of recovery."

He paused, then added.

"However, the probability of this virus infecting people who have completed their first genetic awakening is extremely small."

"For those of us who have completed intermediate-level gene awakening, it is almost impossible to spread. At most, we will only feel some physical discomfort, but it will heal itself quickly."

These words eased the expressions of the young team members slightly.

Liu Chao suddenly looked up and asked, "Zombies? You mean those monsters from 'Wasteland Era'?"

These days, although they know some things, they still find it somewhat unbelievable.

Chen Feng nodded seriously: "That's right, you can understand it that way."

"However, the humans and animals that have just been infected with the virus are far less powerful than the zombie monsters you encountered in Wasteland Era."

"I've already sent you the specific information. Take a look for yourselves. I won't explain further here."

"But I must make one point clear: no one can be careless in this operation. The monsters aren't just zombie monsters; there's also the pathogen that caused this virus to spread!"

"You're asking for it, I won't stop you, but don't drag your teammates down with you."

After saying that, Chen Feng fell silent.

These people were, after all, the elites selected by the authorities; even if they were not the best, they were still at least 70% capable.

However, there are some things he needs to explain in advance.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanguang and the others took out their phones.

It contains the approximate strength of the newly emerged zombies, as well as information on some mutated zombies.

This information was obtained from Wasteland Era.

The more they looked, the more alarmed they became.

perhaps......

The zombie monsters they killed in Wasteland might have included people they knew...
