Eh? Do you also want to try the iron fist of the humanoid girl?

Not far away, scattered zombies stood there blankly, staring at Bergen’s prosperous past with lifeless eyes.

On this once bustling street, all that's left is the wind blowing the garbage on the corners, making faint noises.

Cars were quietly crowded in the lane, their colors faded under the sun and rain, and rust covered their bodies.

Occasionally, the muffled sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard from unknown corners.

This sound was extremely abrupt in the silence, instantly driving away the dead silence that lingered in the city and making people involuntarily nervous.

Whenever such a sound is heard, the zombies will react.

They would momentarily burst into life, moving in the direction of the sound, then fall into a stagnation as the dead silence returned.

Luhui held the counter in her hand and looked left and right. The jumping numbers and the sound told her that the radiation from the collapse near the Rosenkranz Tower had reached a lethal level.

Raphael took the gun and stood up, placing the tripod under the rail guard on the fence of the power tower. He looked at the eyepiece with his right eye and slightly turned the knob of the scope with his left hand.

"What's up, some hospitable fellow?"

When Luhui noticed Raphael's actions, he immediately put away the Geiger counter and took up his weapon as he stood on guard.

"Look at your 10 o'clock direction. The distance is 700."

"...Oh~" Luhui stretched out the sound.

The scope picked up three figures - what she thought were human figures - running down the street.

They were followed by seven shaky figures in pursuit.

"Interference?" asked Lu Hui.

"Save your bullets, we can't help anyone."

Raphael said as he continued to observe the three men's escape, watching how they were eaten alive by the ELID mutant creatures.

After literally two minutes, the person running in the middle suddenly turned around, and two crisp "pa pa" sounds rang out in the city.

The last person fell to the ground, wailing and crying.

It was just a matter of seconds, from the moment he was shot and fell to the ground to the moment the ELID zombies surrounded him.

Just from the tone of the screams, which first rose and then fell, it was easy to get the gist of the man being torn apart by zombies.

It was a very interesting scene, and Raphael thought it would be nice if he had a camera to record it.

"How shameless." Lu Hui commented at this time.

"So what if he's shameless? For the man who fired the gun, this was a necessary sacrifice. Only by sacrificing his companions can he survive."

Raphael saw the shocked look from Luhui and smiled evilly, "This is undoubtedly a betrayal to the deceased, and it is the cruelest one."

"..."

"Human nature is infinitely complex, ranging from selfishness and greed to generosity and courage. What you and I have seen is the dirtiest and most despicable part of it..."

“This is probably the part I come into contact with the most.”

Raphael sighed. How could this conversation continue?

She grabbed a blanket and carefully spread it over the pylon fence so that no one could see them from below, hiding on top of the pylon.

Of course, they can be seen from places as high as or higher than the electricity towers.

As for any person or monster passing underneath, their attention would only be on each other, and it would be enough to just see the nearby.

They don't have that much energy, and the same is true if they send troops from the port camp over.

It’s simple logic – anyone who poops outside your house will try to get as far away from you as possible.

So, from the perspective of everyone here, climbing up an electricity tower without water or food is tantamount to giving up survival.

Ordinary people will just run away, while ELID mutants will just follow blindly.

This is what normal people and brainless monsters would do.

Chapter 186: Measured

The news of the sighting of the survivor quickly spread throughout the camp, and the soldiers, who had been in a state of panic all day, calmed down a lot.

Since the locals can survive, they can do better with backup.

When the helicopter landed, Lindsay was disappointed to see the man, a short, fat man in his fifties, with a plain face and straight shoulders.

He was wearing a brown suit and a red tie, and walked into the building where the port camp command was located, escorted by personnel who came with the helicopter.

However, there was a gentle but somewhat wary look on his weather-beaten face, and his words were not at all worldly-wise.

Raphael had met many different kinds of people, and based on her judgment of people, this person was most likely a lawyer who switched careers to become a politician.

This means that he is more rational when thinking about problems and making decisions. Therefore, he used a formal and polite tone to talk to Colonel Lindsay.

"Colonel Lindsay? My pleasure. I'm Hugh Franklin."

"Hello, Senator."

"I won't bother you. I just want to take a look."

"I'm so glad you're here."

I have to say, Lindsay’s ability to manage her facial expressions is really good.

He had just been pissed off by the Enfield team's presumptuous behavior, and now he had to force a smile that would not be noticed.

Lindsay showed the noble senator around the advanced camp.

Some places offer direct views of the bleak scenery outside the camp, and some rooms serve as research laboratories, filled with portable equipment and sampling containers, all of which interest the senator.

He was very willing to look at the experimental design diagrams to understand how scientists were eliminating the impact of wide-area collapse radiation on humans step by step.

However, his pretentious behavior seemed doubly vulgar when there were still troops clearing out zombies and deformed monsters outside the camp.

"What's so good about these messy things?" Lingyin kept complaining.

At this time, they were walking out of a room where ELID zombies were being studied.

The senator covered his mouth with a handkerchief and retched repeatedly.

His visit was less significant than a conflict between rude people, but at least it was fun to watch.

"This is where it gets ridiculous. These people claim to represent the interests of the voters, but in fact, this senator is pushing for autonomous robots to enter the industry..."

"Raphael, are you on the side of ordinary people?"

Raphael sat in a chair in the corner and listened to the senator's muttering.

The politician, who has a significant influence in the political arena, made a harsh comment on the military pressure faced in contemporary times.

He felt that he had accepted the field research mission on an impulse, spending tens of thousands of public tax dollars to travel from the United States to Bergen just to chat with a few unknown soldiers.

Before landing, he heard from his accompanying secretary that it was very dangerous and the camp could be swallowed by monsters at any time.

But after landing, the senator found that this place was no different from the military bases set up by the US military in other regions.

The ELID distorted monster had seen it before, and had followed the soldiers to the edge of the camp and shot it twice with his own hands...

If we have to say it's dangerous, it definitely comes from the number of monsters.

In addition, he was dissatisfied with the weapons issued to soldiers by the army.

The soldiers were still holding equipment from more than ten or twenty years ago. Even though it was clear that the 5.56 rifles could not pose a threat to the monsters, the army still issued these old weapons to this unit.

The senator felt that the army had gone too far, but he did not speak out publicly because it would disrupt the normal order of the camp.

Secondly, there is a way to give advice, and you have to tell it in the right way, rather than making provocative accusations. That way, the other party will not be grateful, and it is more likely to cause resentment.

He cleared his throat and said, "Hey, Colonel, by the way, I have to go to Fort Bragg. Lieutenant General Green Richardson is the commander now, you know? Well, he's a good friend of your father, remember?"

The senator's implication was very clear: some small things do not need to be communicated through the chain of command, and making good use of resources that others only dream of is the only way to maturity.

He hoped Lindsay understood.

"Please give him my regards," Lindsay replied.

The senator replied cheerfully, "Okay," and left in a helicopter.

After the helicopters from the amphibious assault ship left, the rich and dead atmosphere of the Bergen Port Forward Base was rejuvenated. Unwanted ships were moored in rows, and one could imagine how brightly lit it once was.

All of this gave Raphael the feeling of peace that other people could only feel when they returned home, had a cigarette and a glass of wine.

The general-purpose helicopters equipped by the navy can fly here, which means that the distance between the four-ship formation is no longer far away, but is close and can be seen and touched.

As expected, a new round of additions is here.

At midnight, reinforcements arriving by helicopter landed in the open space in front of the administrative center building.

The mortar groups equipped by the Rangers received ammunition replenishment, but it was later discovered that the rifle ammunition sent by the Navy were all subsonic .300BLK and sub-caliber full-power 6.7NATO, and the 5.56 used by the Rangers was not replenished.

At first, some people thought that this batch of 6.7 bullets was to supplement the navy's reconnaissance team, but after counting the number, it was obvious that it was supplemented according to the existing number of Rangers.

Raphael felt terrible when he heard the news. The ammunition had been delivered in advance before he even changed his gun.

She listened to the noise outside the building, stood up from her chair, and put on the uniform she had never worn since she came here. It should be said that she rarely had time to wear this thing.

If the manufacturer of the Mind Core was not an advanced research institute under the military, she would not want this shitty identity.

Artificial intelligence will behave badly and slack off. If it encounters an obstacle that it cannot bypass, it will not bypass it. Anyone who wants to bypass it can do so.

"Why, you want to go?" Fei Niao said while lying on the floor with his eyes closed, "It's just the order of delivery."

"I'm worried that something might happen. A young man of twenty-four or twenty-five years old has been holding back for nearly half a month, fighting an ELID monster, and now he has to hold back on this kind of thing. Maybe he'll really cause trouble for you."

Fei Niao really thinks people are troublesome. He originally thought that if there was a commotion, it would be fine. Anyway, the helicopters were flying back and forth, and the strange creatures outside the camp would come here sooner or later following the sound.

"I'll go down with you. If there's a fight, we can beat them up faster."

"Don't beat him to death." Raphael warned.

"Don't worry, we killed someone with our bare hands the last time we did it," Asuka said, throwing off the covers and getting up to change clothes.

"There was a fight?"

The ringtone captures sensitive words, and the switching speed from standby sleep to waking up takes no more than 1 second.

"There is a possibility of a fight."

"...Oh~ Then I'll bring a gun with me, just in case something really happens." Lingyin said.

"Remember to aim at Lindsay." Raphael reminded, "Go steal a Ranger's gun, preferably a dead one."

"It's a bit of a personal vendetta."

Chapter 187 TF 1-41

The riot that Raphael had speculated with the greatest malice did not happen. Just when she was grinning in boredom, she saw Lindsay appear in front of everyone with a positive image for the first time, and she calmed down the signs of the riot and appeased everyone.

This means that the prerequisite for his promotion is that he has a high level of military management skills - he is not a fool.

The general's father's influence in the process was that when Lindsay was qualified for promotion, he had a greater chance of getting a vote from the promotion committee than others.

This procedure is rigid, but that does not mean there is no room for maneuver, and the room for maneuver does not mean that it will fall completely into corruption.

The person who designed it is very smart. He not only ensured the quality but also took human relations into consideration.

Raphael managed to obtain high-level confidential clearance and looked through Joe Lindsay's personal file.

When Joe Lindsay graduated from the military academy and was commissioned as a second lieutenant 19 years ago, he and other graduates were deployed to the Middle East.

He has also been to Africa to do some "coordination" work, and has also worked in a joint organization established by the NATO system in Europe.

It can be said that his resume is quite impressive. But he is also a man with the "Army" mark, and he keeps returning to the front line and fighting all the way.

Lindsay's distinguished military service was completed while serving in the garrison in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

During a routine hunting mission, Lindsay was acting as a deputy company commander with the team, tracking a group of 47 terrorists.

But due to lack of intelligence, his convoy drove into an ambush without any preparation.

It was later confirmed that the terrorists they were tracking were actually the rebel forces that launched a rebellion in Yemen half a year ago.
