Xiao Guo Feng, commander of First Division, stood in front of Li Zhengye's office door. He looked curiously at the two soldiers beside him, as still as logs. When he saw their eyes, his heart skipped a beat. He raised a hand to touch them.
Sure enough, he did. The soldier fell to the floor.
Xiao Guo Feng looked at the other soldier, his eyes just as dark. He suddenly realized something. He quickly turned around and ran into the leader's office. He looked at the situation on the leader's desk.
The documents on the table were still open, and the pens were thrown to the side in a messy manner. Someone had obviously been working there, but they'd left so abruptly that they didn't even have time to tidy up the desk.
It looked like their leader had been ambushed. Why else would there be no signs of a fight?
Thinking of this, Xiao Guo Feng immediately turned around and left.
"Men, quick. Send someone to find the leader. He's gone. Keep it a secret. Also, call Cui Tengguang and the other Corps Commanders over. "Xiao Guo Feng walked down the corridor while calling for his men to go look for them.
"Yes, sir."
It wasn't long before Cui Tengguang, commander of Second Division, arrived with his men.
Skyfire Base had about three hundred thousand soldiers, divided into seven divisions. Xiao Guo Feng and Cui Tengguang were the other commanders, all of them sixth level Adepts. Xiao Guofeng, on the other hand, was a Level 7 Fire Ability User. He was the second in command after Li Zhengye.
"What's wrong, Old Xiao? Why did you call us to the leader's office? Where's the leader? "Cui Tengguang asked, puzzled.
The others noticed the two guards at the door. "What's going on?"
Xiao Guo Feng was a man in his forties, but he had a strong body and looked very tough. His facial features were also very firm, giving people a feeling that he was a superior commander with a very heavy aura.
His face was dark. "When I arrived, they were both standing, dead. The leader and Cheng Tianan were gone. That's why I called you here. "
"What? The leader's gone? Did you send someone to look for him? "Everyone was taken aback.
"Of course we did, but I don't think it's that simple. We need to be prepared if the leader isn't here. " Xiao Guo Feng glanced at the man, then looked meaningfully at Li Zhengye's desk.
The others immediately understood his gaze and tacitly agreed with his words. Someone asked, "What was that roar from the zombies just now? Did a high-level zombie sneak in? "
Xiao Guo Feng walked into the office and sat down on the sofa. He straightened his back and rested his hands on his knees, his expression deep in thought.
He did not say anything. The others looked at each other. They were all silent.
After a while, Xiao Guoli said, "We haven't found the leader's whereabouts, and we haven't found the source of the zombie roar. But now we have to be prepared for both sides, one good and the other bad. Regardless of whether the leader would appear or not, we had to temporarily focus on the zombie roars that had appeared out of nowhere in the base. Also, send someone to pay attention to the situation outside the base wall and report back immediately if there's anything unusual. Leader Feng, I'll leave the perimeter of the wall to you. "
"Understood." A shorter and slightly younger man in military uniform nodded in response. Then, he immediately turned around and went out to deploy the mission.
"Commander Liu, bring some people to check out the situation at that base," Xiao Guo Feng said to another person.
"Hmm? That base? You mean …. "The person who was called was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"Yes, we can't be found there. If there's chaos in the base, we have to at least make sure that it's still under our control. "Xiao Guo Feng nodded and glanced at him.
"Yes. I'll go now. "Commander Liu quickly left.
While Xiao Guo Feng was still planning for both sides, Lin Qiao had already gathered his people.
Lin Qiao glanced at Ah Jiu and asked Old Six, "You let him eat people again?"
Old Six looked at the sky with some guilt and said, "Cough … he only ate one bite."
Lin Qiao looked at him coldly, "You can spoil him. When he wakes up, see if he will thank you. "
Old Six silently turned his head and looked at Ah Jiu, "…."
If this brat regained his memory and humanity, he would remember that he had eaten human flesh. He would probably vomit in his heart.
"The military leaders in this base have already gathered. They might have found out about Li Zhengye's disappearance. Also, they heard our voice just now and definitely won't ignore it. They'll probably focus on searching the interior of the base. You guys hide yourselves. Then we'll wait for the survivors to react. "Lin Qiao scanned Li Zhengye's office building for signs of life.
She glared at Ah Jiu and warned, "Don't eat people! Got it! "
Ah Jiu shrank back in fear from the zombie emperor she'd released and hid behind Old Six.
Lin Qiao waved a hand. "Disperse. I'll go find someone. "
With that, the zombies disappeared in a flash. Lin Qiao's figure flickered and disappeared as well.
The person she was looking for was, of course, the person who had the information on Long-hair.
In a basement in the outskirts of Skyfire Base, a man with an unkempt beard and unkempt hair sat in front of a table, sorting through a stack of documents.
He stood up, took the organized documents, turned around, opened the bookcase behind him, and placed the documents in one of the compartments.
The basement was small, only three or four square meters. The bed, table, and bookcase took up all the space.
He placed the documents into the shelf, closed the door, and turned back to continue sorting. The bell hanging by the door suddenly rang.
The man paused, his eyes beneath his bangs staring sharply at the door.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
A sharp glint flashed across the man's eyes for a few seconds before disappearing. He spoke softly. "Who is it?"
He looked unkempt, but his voice was pleasing to the ear. It was as clear as spring water, making people feel very comfortable and pleasant to listen to.
"Do you want to do business?" A woman's voice called out.
"A woman?" The man frowned.
There weren't many people here who knew about him, and women were even less likely. Besides, he only knew one or two female Adepts in Skyfire Base who knew about him. But he'd never heard the voice outside the door before, which meant it wasn't someone he knew.
But if it was business, there was no reason for him to refuse. Most importantly, they'd come looking for him. It wouldn't be easy to refuse …
The man thought for a moment, then slipped out from his desk and walked to the door.
