The lead-gray clouds hung low.
The light around dimmed little by little.
The wind whistled again, blowing Jiang Liushi's trench coat.
After waiting for an hour outside the gate of Area A, Jiang Liushi, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were covered with a layer of snow.
Zhang Hai was walking back and forth, stomping his feet, and he looked very impatient.
On the contrary, Jiang Liushi's eyes were constantly moving along with the falling snowflakes.
Jiang Liushi could clearly see the subtle crystal surface on the snowflakes.
In the past, Jiang Liushi could only maintain such high-intensity brain nerves for a quarter of an hour at most.
Up to now, he had persisted for nearly half an hour, but he was not tired at all.
Soon they would attack the beast nest, so Jiang Liushi did not dare to relax. He would exercise whenever he had time, so waiting was not difficult for him.
"Brother, why is there no news from there? How long do we have to wait? " Zhang Hai finally couldn't help but urge the guard at the sentry post, "Can I make another phone call to ask?"
The soldier at the sentry post glanced at Zhang Hai, nodded lightly, and dialed the number of No. 57 Courtyard in Area A.
"The line is busy!" After a while, the soldier put down the phone and said to Zhang Hai.
Zhang Hai was speechless, but he could only continue to wait patiently.
Area A. In the No. 57 Courtyard.
It was snowing heavily, so the chess game in the courtyard could only be moved to the secluded main hall of the garden structure.
Three games had been played, and the guards had refilled tea for Peng Dinglong and Su Qiguang several times.
When they were enjoying the game, a guard hurriedly came in and whispered a few words to the middle-aged man standing at the gate.
The middle-aged man was Zhang Gaohe, the captain of Area A's Guards. He was an elite promoted by Peng Dinglong.
Although he was the captain of Area A's Guards, Zhang Gaohe was still loyal to Peng Dinglong. As long as Peng Dinglong came, he would immediately visit his old boss.
Hearing the guard's news, Zhang Gaohe's face suddenly became solemn, and then he went straight to the main hall.
"Commander Peng, Old Su, not long ago, a big event happened in the Rock Club. There are signs of the beast nest's invasion."
As soon as Zhang Gaohe's voice fell, Peng Dinglong's fingers froze in mid-air. He immediately threw the chess piece into the jar and turned to look at Zhang Gaohe.
"Is the information confirmed?"
"It's confirmed. It was Li Yinqiang and Leopard who discovered this. They happened to bump into each other there. People from the Security Bureau and the Scientific Research Institute went over to investigate and found that under the Rock Club's Stagnant Water Arena is a hollow crypt with a large amount of insect tissue fluid. "
"Got it." Peng Dinglong frowned and did not speak for a long time.
The relaxed atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
"If this is the case, I am afraid that the Xiayuan area is not safe anymore... In the past, the Shenhai Sea Safety Zone was attacked from the inside because of the invasion of the beast nest." Su Qiguang sighed.
Peng Dinglong's expression had already returned to normal.
The leader of the army laughed heartily.
"Elder Su, you can rest assured. Our Xiayuan Safety Zone is built on a mountain. Even if the beast nest erodes over, the thick soil and rock layers will not be easily corroded. Moreover, the security here was much tighter than in Zhonghai, and the military strength was sufficient. Elder Su, with the strength of our military base, more than 10,000 soldiers and hundreds of tanks, we can guarantee the safety of the people in the Xiayuan Safety Zone. "
"Don't take it lightly, Commander Peng." Su Qiguang's expression was still solemn.
"I'm not taking it lightly. In the grand strategy of our Xiayuan Safety Zone, we are about to counterattack the beast nest. This time, we found traces of the beast tide erosion under the Rock Club. It is estimated that a big counterattack will be carried out in advance. "
Peng Dinglong waved his hand and said, "As for Professor Su, you should study some better evolutionary crystals and other biological products, so that our human paranormals can evolve stronger..."
Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly looked outside the door.
The slim and graceful Li Yuxin walked in from the outside.
"Hello, Uncle Peng." Li Yuxin first greeted Peng Dinglong politely and sat down next to Su Qiguang.
"Yuxin, you came at the right time. Just now, Uncle Peng received news from the military that traces of the beast nest have been found near the Xiayuan Safety Zone. Don't run around these days. "Su Qiguang stared at his granddaughter lovingly.
Peng Dinglong looked at Li Yuxin with appreciation.
In front of him, Li Yuxin was not only a top student, but also possessed a rare medical ability. In addition, she had two relatives who had made great achievements in biology and medicine. In the future, she would definitely shine in the Xiayuan Safety Zone.
Moreover, in the Xiayuan Safety Zone, there were no more than three paranormals with medical abilities.
Two of them were already important leaders of the Xiayuan Safety Zone's medical system, and they had entered the Xiayuan Safety Committee.
"The beast nest has spread to the Xiayuan Safety Zone?"
Hearing this news, Li Yuxin was shocked.
She suddenly thought of a problem. In a few days, Shi Ying Squad would attack the beast nest. Obviously, the beast nest was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
"Captain Zhang, I have an appointment with Shi Ying Squad's Captain Jiang Liushi. He said that he would come here today to visit my grandfather and parents. How come I haven't seen him yet? I want to go and have a look, "Li Yuxin said.
Recently, Peng Dinglong had been very close to the Su Family, and Zhang Gaohe had taken charge of everything in the Su Family. He had even assigned a few more guards to the Su Family.
Usually, Peng Dinglong's people were responsible for delivering messages.
Hearing Li Yuxin's words, Zhang Gaohe was slightly stunned.
Jiang Liushi's team was probably waiting at the gate of Area A. However, at that time, he was afraid of disturbing Peng Dinglong's interest in playing chess with Su Qiguang, so he didn't report the news.
Moreover, because Rock Club had found traces of the beast nest, he naturally pushed back the news of Jiang Liushi's team.
He didn't expect that Li Yuxin would suddenly take the initiative to mention it.
Originally, Zhang Gaohe didn't pay much attention to the survivors' team. He had also heard Peng Dinglong's appreciation of Li Yuxin, so he believed that Li Yuxin would definitely stay in Area A and enter the Scientific Research Institute like her mother and grandfather. Even if she didn't enter the Scientific Research Institute, she would still enter the medical department.
Naturally, she would have a promising future. How could she be related to a survivor team?
However, it seemed that Li Yuxin couldn't be separated from them immediately. But it was normal. Li Yuxin seemed to be kind, so Zhang Gaohe guessed that she would feel guilty.
"Miss Yuxin, Captain Jiang Liushi has arrived. He is now at the gate of Area A." Zhang Gaohe quickly said, "I will invite them in now."
"He has arrived?" Li Yuxin smiled.
Although she had only left Shi Ying Squad for a day or two, she didn't know why she missed the days in Jiang Liushi's minibus.
With Zhang Gaohe's phone call, Jiang Liushi and his team naturally entered Area A unimpeded.
Immediately, a military vehicle sent by the Guard Brigade came to greet them, and then they drove all the way to Area A.
Jiang Liushi didn't get off, but he saw a beautiful girl waiting in the snow outside the gate.
Li Yuxin was wearing a snow-white cloak. Originally, she had a gentle temperament, so she stood in the wind and snow with a kind of elegant demeanor.
Perhaps it was because of the peace of mind of reuniting with her family, Li Yuxin's face was more ruddy than before, and her eyes were as calm as a pool of water.
"Yuxin." Seeing Li Yuxin, Jiang Liushi smiled.
Immediately, his gaze landed on Zhang Gaohe, who was standing behind Li Yuxin with a serious expression on his face.
Zhang Gaohe was looking at Jiang Liushi carefully.
He had some doubts because he didn't see any outstanding demeanor from Jiang Liushi.
In addition to Jiang Liushi's spirit and Qi, there was nothing special about him. Even his body's fluctuations were … as if nothing had happened.
"Brother Jiang." Li Yuxin saw Jiang Liushi and smiled.
She was a little worried about the beast nest, but after seeing Jiang Liushi, she inexplicably felt a sense of security. It seemed that some empty places in her heart were filled by the young man in front of her.
"Brother Jiang?"
Li Yuxin's somewhat intimate tone, coupled with the smile on her pretty face, made Zhang Gaohe's eyes flashed with a trace of strangeness.
He was an experienced person, and he felt that Li Yuxin's appreciation for Jiang Liushi was not ordinary.
"Hey, I almost froze to death. I've been standing outside for almost two hours. Is there anything to eat? "Zhang Hai complained and shook the snow on his clothes.
The atmosphere between Shi Ying Squad's members was very good.
Usually, Li Yuxin's character was not as cold as Ling's, so Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were very familiar with her.
"Waited for more than two hours?" Li Yuxin was slightly surprised, and then she immediately looked at Zhang Gaohe.
"Captain Zhang, what's going on?"
Li Yuxin was a little angry.
She was not a narrow-minded person, but when she thought that Jiang Liushi had to wait for two hours at the entrance of Area A, she felt uncomfortable.
"Oh, it's just a small misunderstanding. At that time, I received news that Commander Peng Dinglong and Elder Su were playing chess … Later, I received urgent news about the beast nest from the military government, so I made Captain Jiang wait for a long time, "Zhang Gaohe said apologetically and looked at Jiang Liushi.
Hearing that, Li Yuxin looked at Jiang Liushi apologetically.
There was nothing wrong with Zhang Gaohe's words, but it was obvious that he didn't attach importance to Jiang Liushi.
That made Li Yuxin feel a little uncomfortable.
"Why did you make us wait for so long for a chess game? Our Shi Ying Squad can't even compare to a chess game? This is too … "Zhang Hai couldn't help but mutter.
Zhang Gaohe looked at Zhang Hai, and then a smile appeared on his mouth. He shook his head secretly. He had seen many arrogant teams.
If Peng Dinglong was a stingy commander, he was afraid that the Shi Ying Squad would never be able to survive in Xiayuan Safety Zone.
"Well, you can come in," Jiang Liushi said lightly.
It was meaningless to argue about this kind of thing, and Jiang Liushi didn't like to do meaningless things.
Li Yuxin led him into the main hall, and then he saw Professor Su Qiguang.
Some memories of Shenhai Island suddenly came back to him.
He and Su Qiguang were fated to meet, and he had once saved the old man's life.
Su Qiguang was also very happy to see Jiang Liushi.
Jiang Liushi could be regarded as his savior, who had saved a team trapped in a nuclear power plant in Shenhai Island.
Moreover, Jiang Liushi had brought Li Yuxin to Xiayuan Safety Zone to find them.
This was enough to raise Jiang Liushi's position in Su Qiguang's heart.
"Come on, Little Jiang, let me introduce you. This is Commander Peng Dinglong of Xiawu Military Base." Su Qiguang enthusiastically held Jiang Liushi's hand and introduced Peng Dinglong to him.
Peng Dinglong was very enthusiastic, just like Su Qiguang, he called Jiang Liushi Little Jiang and casually talked with him.
When he heard that Jiang Liushi had safely brought Li Yuxin to Xiayuan Safety Zone, Peng Dinglong sighed and patted Jiang Liushi's shoulder.
"Heroes come from young. It's not easy."
Jiang Liushi smiled faintly.
"It's nothing. We are all in the same team. Protecting Li Yuxin's safety is our duty."
Peng Dinglong nodded.
"But now that you're here, I, Peng Dinglong, still have some power. Professor Su, I think these young men are good, so they can join my private escort team. I promise that you will have a good future in my private escort team. "
Hearing that, Zhang Gaohe's eyelids twitched. Commander Peng Dinglong had really put in a lot of effort to win over Professor Su.
Seeing Professor Su's kind attitude towards Jiang Liushi, Peng Dinglong actually wanted to pull them into his private escort team. The private escort team was one of the strongest forces under Commander Peng Dinglong. All of them were elites, and they had been awarded the title of 'Eagle Escort' by the Safety Zone's government.
In the entire Xiayuan Safety Zone, apart from Li Yinqiang's Special Forces, Peng Dinglong's Eagle Escort team was the strongest.
"No need. We … don't intend to join the army for the time being, "Jiang Liushi said.
He was a little hesitant. If it was someone he was not familiar with like Li Yinqiang, he would directly refuse.
Peng Dinglong was so enthusiastic, and it seemed that he had a good relationship with Professor Su, so he couldn't refuse too directly.
Peng Dinglong was a little surprised. After all, joining the army was a dream of many paranormals.
Not to mention that they were a foreign team. This kind of team usually had to go through very strict inspection and political review before they were qualified to join the army. The review was even stricter than that of Xiayuan Safety Zone's natives.
Because many survivor teams, after gaining great strength, would become lawbreakers who did whatever they wanted. These kinds of people, even if they were powerful, couldn't be used.
"Commander Peng, our Brother Jiang, oh, no, our whole Shi Ying Squad is used to being free and undisciplined. The army has too many constraints. Not long ago, Captain Li Yinqiang wanted our captain to join the army, but our captain didn't agree, "Zhang Hai said.
Zhang Hai was usually careless, but he still had some tricks up his sleeves.
As a member of Shi Ying Squad, he was very arrogant.
Although Zhang Gaohe and Peng Dinglong didn't openly despise Shi Ying Squad, they still faintly looked down on them.
Zhang Gaohe couldn't help but say a few words.
Zhang Gaohe frowned slightly.
What kind of person was Li Yinqiang?
His status was on the same level as Peng Dinglong. He had personally asked Jiang Liushi to join the Special Forces, but Jiang Liushi had refused?
Zhang Gaohe couldn't believe such a thing.
In his heart, the Shi Ying Squad had been labeled as frivolous and frivolous.
"Oh, Captain Li Yinqiang was also rejected by you?" Peng Dinglong was stunned for a moment, and then he could not help but laugh. "Little Jiang, you rejected two powerful military teams in a row. You're really something."
The smile on his face didn't diminish, but he looked at Jiang Liushi with less enthusiasm.
"But if you don't join the army, what other plans do you have?"
"We intend to complete the level-5 mission first, and then we will participate in the counterattack against the beast nest. If we can complete this mission, our team will be able to reach the A-level assessment as soon as possible, "Jiang Liushi said.
Counterattack against the beast nest?
Hearing Jiang Liushi's words, Peng Dinglong frowned, but soon he relaxed again.
