Early in the morning.
Chen Feng led the Dark Group to the location of the accident.
Due to the strangeness of the matter, Chen Feng did not choose to send a large team to investigate. Instead, he chose to use a small team to search for the missing members.
A group of six people.
The leader of the Dark Group was none other than Lu Wei, who had obtained the power of the devil.
Chen Feng was good at using all resources.
Lu Wei's current strength was quite good. Due to the devil's ability, ordinary Silver Rankers were no match for him. Therefore, he was appointed as the leader of the Dark Group as soon as he returned to investigate dangerous situations.
It could be said that Lu Wei had reached the top in a single bound.
As a result, his sister didn't need to work hard. Her brother was Chen Feng's favorite, so her status naturally rose as well.
At this time, several members of the Dark Group wearing black tights followed behind Chen Feng and rushed forward. They were like sharp blades that had been sharpened.
After more than two hours of trekking, everyone arrived near the scene of the accident.
This place was close to the west of the bridge. Unlike most of the survivors living on the east side of the bridge, the west side of the bridge had suffered great damage due to an earthquake. Therefore, it had been reduced to a wild area. In the past, very few people would settle here.
Without humans, the number of other species increased greatly. Dimensional creatures, zombies, and insects gathered here. The entire west side of the bridge had become a monster paradise.
Chen Feng was now relying on his skills to be bold. If it were anyone else, they would have died several times.
The monsters weren't completely brainless. Those with a little intelligence hid by the side when they sensed the aura of Chen Feng and company, not daring to make a move.
There were also some brainless creatures who rashly intercepted them. However, there was only one outcome — becoming corpses.
They investigated along the way.
The number of monsters that died at the hands of the group exceeded two digits. At this moment, their bodies were filled with a strong murderous aura. Wherever they went, they would cause a commotion.
At this moment.
At the edge of the west side of the bridge, Chen Feng's vigorous figure was moving forward at high speed. Even if he was travel-worn, it couldn't hide his power. He had already walked a long way. After rushing for more than three hours, even he had some sweat on his forehead. Obviously, he was a little tired.
After walking for a few hundred meters, Chen Feng suddenly raised his arm and motioned for everyone to stop.
Chen Feng's expression was serious as he whispered, "Listen, there's no movement around. There doesn't seem to be any living things here!"
Everyone exchanged glances, one of the Professionists who specialized in scouting even held his breath and carefully listened to the changes around him.
......... "........... There..............
With a solemn expression, Chen Feng said in a low voice, "Give me the map."
...
The area was circled by a red pen. Clearly, this was also the place where the missing people were in charge of investigating.
They were about to reach the depths of the west side of the bridge. In the past, there were few signs of human activity. Their faces were solemn as they walked forward cautiously.
Sneaking carefully.
There was a smell of blood.
Pushing aside a piece of dead wood, the bodies of some beasts were exposed. They seemed to have been cut off by a saw. The cuts on their bodies were all irregular in shape.
The scout sniffed and then pointed in a direction, "Over there!"
They hurriedly rushed forward and passed through a factory. Everything in front of them made their faces turn ashen because they saw a lot of corpses and wreckages. There were beasts and zombies, but their limbs were all incomplete. Instead of calling them corpses, it was more like a garbage dump. These wreckages were casually thrown here.
It was the first time for several members of the dark group to see such a scene. For a while, they didn't know what to do.
Lu Wei squatted down and picked up a small piece on the ground. It looked like a carapace and looked at it. Then he said, "It's an insect!"
There were many such fragments around, but there were no insect corpses. Obviously, the mastermind behind these killings was the insect race.
"Check!"
"There must be insects nearby!"
"Damn it!"
"This group of guys is really hiding here!"
Chen Feng frowned and looked a little angry. At this point, the fate of the three missing people may have been determined. They were really attacked by insects.
The previous scout stood up. His ability was a bit special. He didn't have any attack power, but he could perceive signs of life activity. In the past, he was regarded as a small leader in the search team.
It was precisely because of his special ability that he was specially recruited into the dark group.
At this time, he closed his eyes, opened all the pores on his body, and sensed the vitality around him. Time passed second by second, and after an unknown amount of time, the professional was stunned for a moment. Then, his face suddenly became deathly pale, as if he had been painted. There was really not a trace of blood on his face.
"Go … Go quickly …"
The professional's legs seemed to be showing signs of weakness, and he almost fell to the ground. Even if Chen Feng was standing next to him, he still said this decision without hesitation. Then he stumbled and ran back the way he came.
Chen Feng's eyes showed a touch of thought. He looked at the performance of the other party, then looked down at the soles of his feet. Perhaps he thought of something, and his hair stood up. He followed the warrior and ran away.
The rest of the people were confused, but since Chen Feng set an example, they couldn't say anything and also went back the way they came.
Just like that, the few of them ran to the critical point on the east side of the bridge as fast as they could. Only then did the scout let out a sigh of relief and fall to the ground.
He first looked behind him with lingering fear, then looked at Chen Feng and stuttered, "Sir … the insects … are under our feet … densely packed … there are … thousands of them …"
…
East Qiaodong District.
Xu Hongzhuang was welcoming the population assistance from the Economic Zone.
After a period of power, Xu Hongzhuang's momentum had changed a little. If she was just a pure warrior before, then now, she was a ruler with the power of life and death in her hands.
Originally, there was a kind of courage that was not inferior to men. At this time, this courage was even more vigorous. Every move was like a bold and decisive knife, giving people a feeling of swift and decisive action.
A rather shrewd looking warrior walked to the other side and said, "Colonel, this is the assistance of my master this time. 500 pounds of insect meat, 3 tons of food, and 500 slaves. Please check."
"Okay." Xu Hongzhuang nodded slightly and said with satisfaction, "Send my regards to your master. No one will forget his assistance to the east of the bridge."
Without lips, the teeth would be cold.
Shallow logic.
Compared to the Economic Zone, the east of the bridge was the main target of the insect tide. In order to help the other party build a defense, Chen Feng not only gave food, but also sent 500 slaves.
"These are the slaves that your master captured?"
Xu Hongzhuang looked at the densely packed heads in front of her. These slaves were generally about two meters tall. Most of them were in the prime of their lives and were full of muscles. At first glance, it was clear that they were a group of coolies who could do stronger and more tiring work.
At the front of this group of people, there was a short person who was less than 1.2 meters tall. He had a brandy nose, mung bean eyes, and weedy hair. He even held a dead branch in his hand. No matter how you looked at it, he looked like a beggar.
Goblin Sorcerer.
That's right!
In order to help the east of the bridge, Chen Feng even sent the Goblin Sorcerer. Goblins could not be judged by their appearance. Although they were a little ugly, their true abilities were not low. 70% of the battle fortresses in the Economic Zone were due to them.
At this time, the Goblin Sorcerer raised his head and stood arrogantly in front of the natives. He did not even take Xu Hongzhuang seriously.
This was the habit of goblins.
Cowardly, humble, and extremely cunning.
This kind of creature was already proficient in using the power of the fox to intimidate the tiger. To the Sorcerer, he had already hugged the thickest thigh. When dealing with others, naturally, he would not be too attentive.
The smart warrior at the side quickly explained, "Colonel Xu, this friend has already become an official resident of the Economic Zone. He has great attainments in construction. However, his temperament is a little strange. Please forgive him."
Official resident?
Xu Hongzhuang's face showed a hint of interest. She looked at the other party. She did not care about the other party's identity. As long as he could help the east of the bridge, she would naturally treat the wise with respect.
"Arrange all of them."
Xu Hongzhuang glanced at the natives in front of her and ordered the subordinate beside her, "Prepare some simple houses for them to familiarize themselves with the daily work. Start work tomorrow morning."
The subordinate nodded and led the natives into the city.
Trade.
Compared to the scene when Hong Jiuling and Feng Zhiyong were in power, when Xu Hongzhuang was in power, the trade between the east of the bridge and the Economic Zone had long exceeded people's expectations.
However, compared to the previous suspicions, after receiving a large amount of material aid, some conservative people finally began to waver.
This was the charm of money.
Food, weapons, labor.
It could be said that in just a short month, because of the aid from the Economic Zone, the east of the bridge had changed in all aspects. Compared to the politicians who were worried about Chen Feng's intentions, the survivors were the type of people who were easily satisfied. As long as there was food to fill their stomachs, for these people at the bottom, it was the greatest happiness.
For them, there was no time to care about who was in power.
As long as they could live a better life, even if it was the devil, they would agree with both hands. In the face of disaster, this was a very realistic choice.
Xu Hongzhuang was not in the mood to waste too much time here.
Sitting in this position, there was an endless amount of work for her to do every day. What should she do next? Right, she should organize the soldiers and place the newly built magic crystal cannons on the city wall. Then, she needed to inspect the arsenal and see the recent production of weapons.
Thinking of this, Xu Hongzhuang stepped forward and was about to walk towards her destination.
But suddenly, there was a rush of panting in the distance. Then, a soldier ran in front of Xu Hongzhuang with a panicked expression and took out a letter from his pocket. "Colonel, an urgent letter from the Economic Zone!"
Xu Hongzhuang could not help but be stunned. She reached out to take the letter and opened it.
There was no long speech. In terms of word count, there were only eight words, but these few words made Xu Hongzhuang feel as if she was facing a great enemy.
