Luo Yuan was not the only one who wanted to see him, but also Wang Shishi, Fatty Xie, and the weird-looking woman. It was obvious that they were being recruited.
Huang Jiahui's expression stiffened and she looked nervous.
Luo Yuan stopped smiling and said, "Sure, but I need to talk to my companions first."
The leader of the soldiers nodded and led them out of the door.
"I'm afraid there's something wrong outside. Be careful. We'll go and have a look," Luo Yuan said.
"Be careful," Huang Jiahui said worriedly. "Be careful, Shishi. You too. If you're on a mission, you must follow Luo Yuan. Don't run around."
Zhao Yali's lips twitched and she finally said, "Don't force yourself and don't take risks. Everyone is worried about you."
Luo Yuan nodded as he felt a warmth in his heart. He gently touched Zhao Yali's cheek, and she blushed.
"Alright, let's not talk anymore. Shishi, let's go!" Luo Yuan took a deep breath and said, pretending to be relaxed.
"Okay!" Wang Shishi nodded excitedly and followed Luo Yuan out of the dormitory.
Wang Xiaguang looked at Luo Yuan's back and Zhao Yali's blushing face. She had a complicated look in her eyes.
…..
In the office, a man in a colonel's uniform was staring at a huge map of Shanghai with his back facing everyone. He seemed to have sensed their arrival and quickly turned around.
"Hello, sir!" Fatty Xie said cleverly.
He waved his hand and said, "You're civilians and I'm a soldier. We don't belong to the same system, so you can call me Hu Haiyang or Colonel Hu. Don't just stand there, sit down! "
He looked to be in his forties and had a medium build. His lips were thin, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, giving him a dignified temperament. Even when he was smiling, there was a solemn atmosphere. In addition, he had a strong military temperament and the power represented by his military rank. Even Wang Shishi felt a little nervous, and her palms were full of sweat.
Luo Yuan pulled the stiff Wang Shishi to sit on the sofa and said, "Colonel Hu, may I know why you're looking for us?"
Colonel Hu looked at Luo Yuan. He knew that Zhou Yicheng had specially reminded him to pay attention to this person. He said in a low voice, "I have to tell you that from now on, all of you have been recruited. I think you should be mentally prepared."
"Since we live here, we naturally have to contribute and advance and retreat together with the base. What happened?" Luo Yuan nodded. Although he was selfish at times, he would never cross his bottom line and conscience. Moreover, this was a matter of national interest. No matter what the reason was, he had to do it.
Seeing that Luo Yuan was the first to agree, the others had to follow suit.
Colonel Hu heaved a sigh of relief and looked better. What he was most worried about was that this group of evolved humans were arrogant and unruly. They were talking about conditions and conditions. He really did not have the energy to fight with them. Of course, he could use force to threaten them but it would not be worth it and he would be taking a huge risk, especially when it came to the evolved human named Luo Yuan. He did not know why he was a little nervous when he saw him.
"The situation is very serious. At 7 o 'clock this morning, the special forces had a fierce battle with a small group of mutated beasts while they were searching for the equipment. More than half of the people were dead or injured. Some of them could not make it back in time and are waiting for rescue. The base is currently short of manpower. Many combat teams are out to rescue equipment. According to the news, the situation in other places is not good either. It seems that this mutated beast movement is not a special phenomenon, but a group operation. "
Later, you will follow the remaining mobile forces of the base to the destination. Your mission is to rescue the equipment and people as soon as possible. "
"I have a question. Didn't the mutated beasts migrate inland? Why are there still mutated beasts?" Luo Yuan quickly asked as he noticed the loophole in Colonel Hu's words.
"This time it's sea beasts migrating inland!" Colonel Hu said seriously.
The atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Sea beasts!
Everyone was shocked!
Fatty Xie was the first to speak loudly, "Sea beasts! This is not a joke! You want us to fight the sea beasts? Aren't you asking us to die?"
Perhaps his voice was too loud and attracted the attention of the soldiers outside, but a group of fully armed soldiers suddenly rushed into the room and shouted, "Sir!"
"It's okay. Go out and close the door!" Colonel Hu waved his hand.
Fatty Xie reacted quickly. His back was already drenched in cold sweat. This was not a time of peace, but a time of war. It was normal to be shot to death for violating military orders. Even if he was thick-skinned, he would not be able to withstand the special armor-piercing bullets. He shrunk his body and did not dare to speak again.
"I have a condition," Luo Yuan suddenly said. His face was frighteningly serious.
"Say it! If it's possible, I will, "Colonel Hu said quickly. When the group of soldiers came in, he had been paying attention to Luo Yuan's reaction. Unfortunately, no matter how he looked, Luo Yuan's face was expressionless. There was even a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He had more than 10 pages of information about this person. It was enough to fill a book. There were accounts of Zhou Yicheng and a few soldiers describing what they had seen along the way. There were also accounts of the soldiers at the base describing how Luo Yuan had trained. Some of the descriptions were even unbelievable and almost mythical. For example, a soldier had said that he could fly, and another soldier had said that he could shoot the glow of a knife.
All the reports showed that he was an extremely powerful evolved person with almost no weaknesses.
According to the report, he was around level five. There were different levels of evolved humans. The government could ignore ordinary evolved humans, but evolved humans who had reached level five were rare even in the entire Reconstruction Area. Therefore, the government paid close attention to each of them. Originally, he didn't believe his report. However, now that he was calmly negotiating the conditions, he was starting to believe it.
If he could make friends with such a person, he might have a chance to meet him in the future. The thought flashed through his mind.
"If I go back to the reconstruction area, I want to bring my pet along," Luo Yuan said. If there was no other way, he would have to give up. There was only one chance to go back to the reconstruction area. If he let it go now, he did not know when he would be able to go back again. As for the battle beast, he could just tame another one in the future.
"Battle beast!" Colonel Hu frowned and said hesitantly, "How big is your battle beast?"
Luo Yuan was slightly surprised that the man had called the giant lizard, but he quickly cleared his mind. It seemed like there was a chance. He said excitedly, "Excluding the tail, it's about eight to nine meters long and six meters tall. It's three meters on the ground. I'm not sure if it can be transported."
"Battle beasts are also an important combat force in the reconstruction area. There are three transport planes in the base, so there's still a lot of space. However, your battle beast is slightly bigger than a 40-foot flat bottom cabinet. It might be possible to modify it, but you'll have to anesthetize it and freeze it properly to reduce the risk."
"Of course. Thank you, Colonel Hu!" Luo Yuan said solemnly. He knew that this was a big favor. It was not a small favor. It was a risky thing for them to do.
"You can tell me if you have any requests. As long as it's within my means, I'll try my best to fulfill them," Colonel Hu said to the rest of them.
Fatty Xie seemed to be scared out of his wits. He did not dare to say anything, and Wang Shishi did not say anything either. The woman mentioned that she wanted to help find her family when they returned to the reconstruction area, but it was obviously beyond Colonel Hu's ability. He only said that he would inform the relevant departments.
The woman remained silent after that.
… …..
The helicopter rotated at high speed, stirring up a strong wind on the ground. Then, it lifted off the ground and quickly flew out of the base.
Luo Yuan and the others were not the only ones on the helicopter. There were four soldiers sitting next to them. Including the pilot and the gunner, there were a total of ten people.
Wang Shishi grabbed Luo Yuan's shirt tightly and looked around curiously. It was her first time riding a helicopter, but it was not a good experience. It was a military aircraft, so the space was extremely narrow. There was a strong smell of engine oil in the air, and it was bumpy during the flight.
Luo Yuan took out his Zhanmadao and picked up an oily rag from the ground. He wiped the blade slowly to relieve the pressure in his heart.
"D-level mission: Rescue the search personnel and their equipment. Mission requirements: Rescue more than ten people and transport the equipment back to the base safely. Mission duration: 12 hours. "
This was also the reason why Luo Yuan made the request. It was too dangerous and risky. A D-level mission was as dangerous as a green level mutated beast. So far, Luo Yuan had only encountered green level mutated beasts twice, and each time, he had only dared to look at them from afar, not daring to get close to them.
The first time was the Heaven's Pillar Tree, which had been burned to death by the lava from the volcano.
The second time was the Photopterus, which had only dared to look at it from afar.
Each of them was beyond his imagination. Even though his strength had increased, he still felt pressured when he thought of facing such a creature.
Fortunately, he was not alone this time. There were three other evolved humans, including Wang Shishi. The armed helicopter was also a great help. When Luo Yuan had entered the base, he had taken a glance at it. It was like a warehouse of firepower. It was equipped with four missiles, rockets, multiple rocket launchers, machine guns, and other weapons.
Based on the power of weapons before the apocalypse, a normal light green level mutated beast would not be able to withstand it once it was fully unleashed.
"I have a bad feeling about this. My eyelids have been twitching." Fatty Xie suddenly sighed and said, "My intuition is very accurate. I'm afraid it's going to be dangerous this time."
"That's because you're a coward. Why didn't I jump?" Wang Shishi laughed at him. She knew that the bald man and Luo Yuan did not get along well.
Fatty Xie looked at Wang Shishi. He did not get angry, nor did he refute. He just shook his head and said, "You don't understand."
Luo Yuan sheathed his knife and looked at him. He did not expect Fatty Xie to be so sensitive to danger. He looked at the mysterious woman, who had been silent all this while, and said, "I'm afraid it's going to be very dangerous. I think we should tell everyone about our abilities and abilities so that everyone can be prepared for it."
Fatty Xie nodded in agreement. He did not hide anything from the soldiers sitting around him. "I'll tell you first. I don't know what kind of evolution is. I figured it out on my own. I have two states. One is the state that everyone usually sees, and the other is the battle state. During that state, the bones in my body will flow, and a layer of hard shell will form on the surface of my body through my skin. In this state, my defensive power and speed will increase greatly. I once fought and killed a level 4 mutated beast. "
Luo Yuan gestured to Wang Shishi. Wang Shishi squinted at Fatty Xie and said in a sweet voice, "My ability is very simple. It's telekinesis. I've also killed level four mutated beasts, but I can't remember how many I've killed."
Fatty Xie looked at Wang Shishi in surprise. It was obvious that he could not believe that such a delicate girl could be so strong. Even the soldiers looked over and were speechless.
"I have the ability of the earth. In a special state, I can release a shockwave and kill a level five mutated beast before," Luo Yuan briefly introduced himself.
Everyone around them gasped. Even Fatty Xie was shocked when he looked at Luo Yuan. Although there was only a difference of one level between level four and level five, the difference in their abilities was huge. A level five evolved human could almost ignore a group of level four evolved humans.
Fatty Xie thought about how he had wanted to take advantage of Luo Yuan a few days ago. Now that he thought about it, he felt goosebumps all over his body. Fortunately, there had not been any real conflict.
Only the woman was left. She looked a little panicked and nervous. Her fingers were twisting the corner of her shirt from time to time. She hesitated for a long time before she said with difficulty, "My ability is similar to mind control. I can temporarily control a level five mutated beast."
Everyone was shocked, including Luo Yuan. A few of the soldiers were even more shocked, and their hands subconsciously tightened on the handle of their guns.
Mind control? This kind of ability sounded evil. No one had expected this quiet woman to have such a terrifying ability. If she grew stronger, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Everyone, please don't misunderstand. I can only control creatures with low intelligence." The woman sighed when she saw everyone's frightened and evasive eyes. She then became silent and immersed in her own world.
