Ten minutes later, Luo Yuan rode the giant lizard back to the base.
Since he had already informed the soldiers, the guards were not nervous, but they kept glancing at him with vigilance.
The second lieutenant picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted someone.
Not long after, two heavy-duty cranes carrying two empty containers came out of the base, followed by an off-road vehicle. Seven to eight soldiers wearing safety helmets jumped out of the vehicle, and one of them walked towards Luo Yuan.
Luo Yuan comforted the giant lizard. He jumped down from the lizard and took a few quick steps forward to greet them.
He shook hands with Luo Yuan, and secretly looked at the giant lizard that was so close to him. He could not help but swallow his saliva and speak calmly.
"Hello, hello. Your battle beast is too big, and the standard containers can't fit it. We have to measure its size and modify the containers as soon as possible. Considering the beast's bad temper and the possibility of danger, we have to anesthetize it first."
He did not look like a soldier. Instead, he looked like a technician in a factory. He must have just joined the army.
"No problem, thank you!" Luo Yuan said politely.
"No problem, no problem at all!" The man waved his hand politely. He opened the small toolbox in his hand, and there was a huge syringe and an electric drill inside. "This is a special anesthetic. It's very effective. Even a level five mutated beast can be anesthetized for five to six hours. However, the effect will decrease after the second use. After all, mutated beasts are very resistant to drugs."
He passed a syringe as thick as a child's arm to Luo Yuan. There was a light blue liquid in it.
Luo Yuan took it and looked at it. He said in disbelief, "One needle is enough?"
"Normally, one needle is enough!" The soldier said confidently. "But it's very difficult to pierce it. Normally, we have to use an electric drill to drill a hole."
"There's no need for an electric drill." Luo Yuan quickly refused. He took the syringe and walked towards the giant lizard doubtfully. There were many wounds on the lizard's body, some of which had been inflicted recently. Its body was still bleeding, so there was no need to make another wound.
Luo Yuan was worried that it would affect the giant lizard's intelligence if it was too close to its head, so he chose a spot on its buttocks and inserted the needle. He then slowly injected the liquid into its body.
The pain was like an itch to the giant lizard. It looked at Luo Yuan doubtfully and ignored him. But very quickly, it began to feel uneasy. It discovered that its body was beginning to become numb, and its strength was gradually disappearing.
A minute later, its body suddenly went limp and it knelt heavily on the ground.
It wailed and struggled to stand up. She looked at Luo Yuan from time to time.
The soldiers nearby began to retreat in order to prevent the other party from injuring them.
Luo Yuan did not know why, but he felt bad when he saw the giant lizard's eyes. He walked over and patted its head to comfort it.
Under Luo Yuan's reassurance, the giant lizard's uneasiness finally calmed down. Soon, its eyelids became heavier and heavier. A few minutes later, it fell into a deep sleep.
Everyone wiped off their cold sweat. When the anesthesia had completely taken effect, the giant lizard could no longer respond to the outside world. Then, they began to measure the size of the giant lizard in detail.
After getting the data, they cut open an empty container and started to modify it.
When everything was done, two hours had passed.
The modified container was obviously a few times bigger than normal containers. The walls of the container were also thickened by two layers. It looked extremely sturdy, obviously to prevent the giant lizard from suddenly waking up and causing damage.
The sleeping giant lizard was quickly lifted by a crane into the container and sealed with electric welding, leaving only a hole the size of a basketball outside.
"Is this used for breathing?" Luo Yuan asked as he pointed at the hole. He had not left the scene.
"This is used to connect the cooling pipe. When the temperature drops to a certain level, your battle beast will enter a dormant state. Its metabolism will be reduced to the lowest level. The remaining air in the container is enough for it, so there's no need to leave a separate hole for breathing."
"Don't worry, the life of a mutated beast is far stronger than you think. We have experience with this, so there won't be any problems." An engineer who seemed to be in his thirties said with a smile. He seemed to have noticed Luo Yuan's concern.
Luo Yuan could only relax when he heard him say so.
… …
At 7: 30 am, the base's loudspeaker suddenly rang.
"All soldiers and survivors, head to the hall to board immediately. The transport plane is about to depart …"
The survivors had received the news earlier. When they heard the order to assemble, they immediately rushed out of their dormitories. They looked excited and ecstatic. Some of them were even shouting like crazy.
Luo Yuan and the others were already standing at the door.
"Did you forget anything? Did you leave anything behind?" Luo Yuan asked.
"I've already checked it a few times!" Huang Jiahui said, looking slightly excited.
Huang Jiahui was not the only one. Everyone else was excited. Their eyes were shining with hope.
Only during the apocalypse did they realize how precious the peaceful days were. Although the conditions in the reconstruction area were not good, and they might not even have enough to eat, the safety of the environment was more than enough.
"Then let's depart!" Luo Yuan said.
Luo Yuan and the others followed the crowd into the hall. The soldiers were already there to maintain order.
Huge transport planes were lined up in two rows like giant beasts. The dark gray metal emitted a cold glow under the light. The runway in front of the hall was also lit up with two rows of lights that extended a few kilometers away. It was very conspicuous in the dark of the apocalypse.
"To ensure the safety of the transport plane, all guns and weapons must be handed in before boarding the plane. Those who are found with stolen weapons will be chased out of the base," a captain said solemnly.
No one expressed any doubts. Everyone quietly handed over their weapons to the soldiers. A few survivors who tried to hide their weapons were also caught by the soldiers. Their faces were full of fear, and they kept begging for mercy. In the end, they even knelt down and begged for mercy with tears and snot. However, their begging did not work on the soldiers. No matter how hard they struggled or resisted, they were all stuffed into armored vehicles and escorted out of the base. One of them tried to fight back, but was killed on the spot and his body was thrown outside.
In troubled times, severe punishment was needed. Moreover, this was a military camp.
Everyone was shocked by the scene. Some of the survivors who had planned to escape did not dare to take any chances anymore. They took out all their weapons and even handed in their own daggers.
Luo Yuan was hesitating if he should ask for help from someone he knew. Suddenly, a soldier came over and said, "You guys come with me!"
"Hey! Brother Luo, over here, you guys get on this one! "Commander Xia quickly walked over and called out to them before they had even taken a few steps.
