The situation in the base was not looking good. Moreover, not all the staff could find shelter. On the monitor, everyone could see some miserable scenes. Those researchers were all pale. This had already exceeded their scope. Butcher was still very calm. After all, he was a teacher of the Elite Academy. The only guards in the base had not even had the time to enter the mecha before they were all slaughtered by the Zergs.
External communications were still ineffective. The other party had done it thoroughly and cleanly. Butcher could basically determine who was behind this. Except he had not expected the other to hide so deeply, and have such a strong desire for money. This move was truly unparalleled.
"Wang Zheng, what do we do now? The army outside should already know that something has happened in the base. But the question is, can we hold out until the army arrives? And … will the army come?"
Butcher said, his expression solemn. At this time, the only person he could rely on was Wang Zheng. He trusted Wang Zheng, not just because he was a member of the Genesis Coffee Club. The Genesis Coffee Club was a special trench, and the members had a high level of trust, especially in terms of ability. Wang Zheng was young, but his survival experience was higher than the rest.
"Based on the current situation, it's only a matter of time before the zergs find this place. Given the fighting power of these zergs, the army … the best thing is to seal this place off, and prevent the zergs from escaping."
The zergs definitely could not escape. The entire base had been built very tightly, just in case. Once the abyss zergs spread out, the result would be fatal, especially if they lost control.
"General Bredt will come to save us!" Siemen Kuang said. But looking at the frenzied zergs outside, he had already lost confidence.
Wang Zheng and the rest looked at each other. They did not dwell on this topic. Although they were all very young, but especially Lie Xin. She knew the coldness of the upper echelons. Everything would be judged by profit and risk, and would not care about people. They had to weigh things.
And for them, the trickiest thing was to survive.
"General Bredt will definitely come, as long as we can survive until then." Off to the side, Luo Er said decisively. This Gemini girl seemed to be very certain.
No one had time to argue about this. Lie Xin was very casual, even … a little happy. She pointed to the screen. It was only a matter of time before they found us. How long could the defenses outside last?
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Zheng. Even if Wang Zheng was extremely powerful, what could he do?
Unarmed, he couldn't even beat a bug's leg. For some reason, Lie Xin really wanted to see Wang Zheng's expression of fear. All along, this man had been too "annoying". Everyone was exposing their weaknesses, darkness, and weakness. Only he had never changed, including when they were facing the Earth-rank assassin on Tita Star. Lie Xin really wanted to tear apart Wang Zheng's disguise, just like how she peeled off his clothes.
Wang Zheng did not have time to think so much. There was only one path in front of him, and that was to get the mech. Only then would he have a chance to retaliate, and at the same time, attract attention. Otherwise, everyone in the house would die.
However, the outside world had already fallen. If they left this place, the chances of them coming back were not high.
"I'll go out. Old Butch, where's the Conqueror? As long as I can get it, I can hold out until help arrives," Wang Zheng said.
Butcher started, and shook his head. "No, it's too far. Let's not even talk about whether you can get there. Even if you do, it might already be destroyed by the bugs. Besides, against such a large number of bugs, the runic mech is useless."
Butcher definitely could not let anything happen to Wang Zheng in his hands. At present, staying here was the safest. It was very likely that the bugs would not be able to find them, or that military help would arrive.
"Wang Zheng, you can't go out. Don't worry, General Bredt will definitely do his best to save this place, and very quickly!" Luo Er said again.
Everyone's eyes were on her. Luo Er was silent for a while. "My identity is a little special. General Bredt knows that, so he will definitely come. We just have to wait here."
Butcher looked at Luo Er. Before bringing a student here, he definitely had to look through the files. And this student's data indeed had a portion that was confidential. Even with his authority, he could not see it. Perhaps her parents or family were important figures, and she was also from Gemini Star. Looking at her, she could not be joking.
"Wang Zheng, since Luo Er has said so, then all the more we should wait here."
Zhang Shan was very calm. No one knew if he was really calm or faking it. But now that Zhang Shan had experienced so many things, he had indeed undergone a fundamental change.
Wang Zheng shook his head. "Old Butcher, based on my understanding of the bugs, they will definitely discover this place. Even if the military comes, but what about their battle power? The terrain here is not conducive for the military to spread out. You should know very well what will happen if the average mech warrior enters."
Wang Zheng's words caused everyone to sink to the bottom. The laboratory was underground. At most, they would send special forces. But even special forces, what were their chances of victory against the abyss Zergs?
The advantage that humans obtained in a battle against the bugs was definitely not the advantage of individual strength, but intelligence, especially the use of geography.
"As long as I can get the mech, I can guarantee that these bugs can't do anything to me." Wang Zheng laughed. At this time, only he could laugh. Fighting was a problem, but fighting while running was no problem. More importantly, as long as he was here, the bugs would not notice this place. And once the military came, they could coordinate from the inside and outside. Otherwise, as long as the bugs blocked the entrance, no matter how many came, they would all be dead.
These were abyss Zergs, not those idiotic bugs.
Everyone looked at each other, unsure what to say. Lie Xin smiled. "I want to go too."
"Count me in," Zhang Shan said.
Wang Zheng frowned. This was no laughing matter. The chances of encountering bugs on the way were extremely high.
"Wang Zheng, don't be a hero alone. There's strength in numbers. And in terms of physical skills, I'm no worse than you," Lie Xin said.
"I can warp. I'm the fastest when I need to run. The bugs can't do anything to me," Zhang Shan said. If he chickened out at this time, he would not be a man.
"Count me in too!" Ao Ziwei said.
Wang Zheng waved his hand. He knew that everyone was skilled, but their ability to adapt and sense of danger was not theirs.
Siemen Kuang had already opened the map. "Your courage is commendable, but take a look. There are three building complexes in the middle, and one of them has just been swept by the bugs. With your speed, once the bugs find you, you're dead for sure. Just stay here and wait for rescue."
At this time, a scene on the screen attracted the owner. The bugs had attacked a building, but had been counterattacked. It seemed that one of the teams had succeeded in getting the mech, and was relying on the building to fire at the bugs.
But Wang Zheng immediately saw a very special existence in the pile of bugs. … Abyss Overmind!
