Only Guo Yueshan, Shen Yuan, Zhang Mu, and Jiang Xiaobei were gathered around the radio station.

Upon hearing the command post's reply, the four of them froze on the spot.

Jiang Xiaobei spoke in a daze, his voice carrying a hint of unreality, "The neighborhood has disappeared, but the radio signal location is still in the same place?"

Have our physical bodies ceased to exist? Are we left only with our souls?

Zhang Mu frowned, his tone full of confusion, "But it's like we've entered another world."

"By the way, Commander Gu, have other areas also disappeared like our neighborhood?"

On the other end of the headset, Gu Linzhou's calm voice came through: "Yes, a total of twelve blocks have disappeared from the real world, including residential areas, commercial office buildings, schools, subway trains, and so on."

Your Longmao Prefecture is the only operational unit that has been contacted by the command center.

So we are also eager to know what exactly happened.

Zhang Mu seemed quite shocked: "No way, an information base station only needs 400 achievement points to activate, where did things go wrong..."

"Ugh, these brain-taxing things should be left to Ling Shuang, that quirky idea genius."

Guo Yueshan's expression turned solemn, and he interrupted in a deep voice, "You can't think like that."

Taking us as an example, the prerequisite for activating the information base station is that fifty people must first light up the "heating furnace" building and complete the milestone before it can be unlocked.

Without unified management, internal conflicts are significant, or the population base is insufficient, fulfilling the requirements will not be an easy task.

Gu Linzhou added, "That's right, our expert team includes experts from multiple fields such as sociology, economics, and criminology."

They unanimously concluded that, in a situation of extreme scarcity of survival resources, without proper management guidance, order would begin to collapse on the third day after the apocalypse.

Shen Yuan stood aside and slowly analyzed, "It is precisely because we are a residential building community that the owners have more or less stored some food."

If it were a commercial office building or a subway train with no reserves, it would be impossible for a person to starve themselves for three days.

Moreover, achievement points are extremely valuable.

Just like us,

Why would an ordinary lord waste his precious achievement points on a seemingly useless signal base station?

Ling Shuang and the others also had too many achievement points to spare.

Gu Linzhou's voice revealed a hint of sincere approval, "It seems that your management team has outstanding decision-making and organizational abilities."

By the way, I've heard you guys mention Ling Shuang repeatedly.

Did he play a key role in maintaining stability?

Upon hearing this question, Guo Yueshan did not answer immediately. He hesitated and looked up at Zhang Mu.

Zhang Mu looked troubled, his heart filled with unease.

If the organization finds out that Shuang Ge has mutated, will they imprison or even execute him?

He took a deep breath and carefully began to speak: "Commander Gu, my name is Zhang Mu, and I am a surgeon at the hospital."

Ling Shuang and I grew up in the Jiangnan District compound.

Although he wasn't a soldier, he had received formal training and possessed top-notch physique and fighting skills.

Initially, he relied on using force to deter others, but we absolutely did not harm anyone.

Zhang Mu ultimately concealed the truth about Ling Shuang's transformation.

Fortunately, Gu Linzhou did not dwell on this point and quickly changed the subject.

"Very good, you are all excellent comrades."

Oh, right, about the rescue issue we talked about last time.

We are currently mobilizing the core space special operations force of Nantianmen, codenamed "Luan Bird".

The details of the operation are top secret, and we cannot disclose too much information at this time.

However, Shen Yuan's brows furrowed tightly.

He had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

The Nantianmen Project is ostensibly a strategic concept aimed at space warfare, and the "Luan Bird" special forces have never been exposed to the public eye.

If we really have to call in the space operations forces for rescue.

That would mean...?

Shen Yuan's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and a chill ran down his spine.

If the truth is as he suspects, Longmao Prefecture is definitely not the first area to contact the command center.

Gu Linzhou probably only said that they were still in their original positions to appease the people.

Guo Yueshan anxiously asked, "Then when do we have to wait?"

There's an unknown, terrifying entity in the neighborhood that can freeze people to death instantly.

Gu Linzhou paused for a moment, then lowered his voice.

"A brief deception means nothing to your management."

Our initial assessment is that we will not have a chance to take action until the restrictions in the safe zone are lifted.

But I hope you will keep this news under wraps, stabilize morale, hold on until the very last day, and wait for reinforcements.

However, just as Guo Yueshan was about to say something more, the signal suddenly dropped again.

Guo Yueshan looked at Jiang Xiaobei with a puzzled expression.

"Xiao Bei, last time I was able to make it over and say a few words, why was it so short this time?"

Jiang Xiaobei rushed forward to adjust the frequency, answering without turning his head.

"It's unclear. It could be due to fluctuations in the window period, or it could be related to the stability of the safe zone itself."

After the words were spoken, the four people looked at each other in silence, and a heavy sense of oppression filled the air.

There's absolutely no real help available right now!

At this moment, on the other end of the phone.

In a makeshift command center, a middle-aged man in camouflage military uniform slowly put down his headset.

It was Gu Linzhou, who had just spoken with Longmaofu.

He raised his head, glanced around at the busy staff members in the room, and said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, communication has been lost again."

Please analyze the intelligence as soon as possible and create character profiles for Guo Yueshan, Shen Yuan, Zhang Mu, Jiang Xiaobei, and Ling Shuang.

We need to make a preliminary assessment of the likelihood that they belong to "peaceful forces" before deciding whether to simultaneously report the rescue situation to higher authorities.

"Roger that, Commander-in-Chief!"

"receive!"

At this moment, the young adjutant beside him asked in a low voice, puzzled.

"Commander Gu, the third wave of monsters attacking the base is about to arrive."

Why hide the truth from them? Perhaps they can archive our battle records and intelligence, at least...

Gu Linzhou waved his hand, interrupting him.

At this moment, Gu Linzhou's face was full of undisguised exhaustion, completely unlike the calm and powerful demeanor he had displayed in the headset just now.

He pushed open the tent curtain, with his adjutant following closely behind.

From the gap in the distant, cracked dome, swirling snowflakes, carrying a biting chill, rushed in.

High in the sky, countless mutated bird creatures were circling and gathering, a dark mass that obscured the already dim firefly light.

Gu Linzhou's place was also a safe zone that had been dragged into another world!

He let out a long sigh, as if answering the adjutant's question.

"If ordinary people know that the military is in imminent danger, how will they face the future?"

At least for now, their safe zone seems to be relatively peaceful.

Perhaps they really can wait until the countdown ends.

Gu Linzhou paused, looking at the mutated creatures gathering in the distance. A resolute look flashed in his eyes, but more than that, there was an indescribable bitterness.

"If we really can't hold on, we will use telegrams to transmit the intelligence we have to the Longmaofu community multiple times."

As it stands, they seem to be the only ones who are relatively normal.

A sense of despair welled up in his heart.

The phoenix had replied that it was already on its way.

He was informed of the information regarding the safe zone and instructed to hold his position until reinforcements arrived.

Gu Linzhou whispered in anguish.

"Luan birds, where have you gone?"

It doesn't matter if we sacrifice ourselves.

But the flame of humanity must survive as long as possible!
