Calculating the update speed, it had been seven days with three updates, and today was the eighth day with four updates. Was it really not enough to make it to the front page?
He was going to suffer from internal injuries.
… …
Outside a building, there were more than ten zombies wandering around.
Not far away, Ye Chen and his group were hiding in the ruins of a stone wall. After the previous battle, the number of people in the team was reduced from twenty to fourteen.
"There are seventeen zombies outside, the situation inside is unknown." A man who was acting as a scout pushed up his glasses and said calmly.
Mu Bai Feng nodded and ordered, "Ah Long, you guys kill the three on the left. Little Wang, you guys take care of the ones on the right. Brother Ye, you guys can do whatever you want. Wait for my command and fire together. Try not to make too much noise."
The others nodded.
“1,2,3!”
"Attack!"
Mu Bai Feng pulled the trigger first. A bullet flew out and hit a zombie's head. Bang! It was a headshot!
The zombie fell to the ground dead. The others also fired at the same time. However, some of their skills were not good and did not hit the zombie's head. Instead, they hit the zombie's neck or chest.
After a round of shooting, there were still eight zombies left. They roared and rushed towards the direction where the group was hiding.
Bang bang bang … …
The second wave of bullets swept out, and the eight zombies fell one after another. Five of them were killed by Ye Chen and the others, one was killed by Mu Bai Feng, and the other two were killed by the rain of bullets from the others.
"Go!"
Mu Bai Feng rushed from the ground and led the charge. He jumped over the zombies and rushed into the building. The others followed behind.
There was a large hall in the building. There were three or four zombies wandering around. Not far away, there was a room. Below the room, through the crack of the door, there was a wide white piece of paper with two words written on it: "Help!"
Ye Chen and his group received the mission. There was a high chance that someone from the investigation department passed by and saw the message through binoculars and other tools. That was why they reported this information back.
"The people from the Ministry of Information must have investigated and know who lives in this building. Otherwise, they wouldn't have specially sent an army to rescue them!" Ye Chen muttered in his heart. He fired a few shots and killed a few zombies not far away.
A group of people approached the room.
Presumably, the people from the Investigation Department had also investigated the area and knew that there weren't any powerful monsters, so they only sent an army. If there were powerful monsters, then they might have sent an army or even a general!
Dong dong dong!
Mu Bai Feng cautiously knocked on the door and called out softly, "Is anyone home?"
Hearing the sound of people, the room was silent for a while. Then the door slowly opened. An old man poked his head out to take a look. When he saw Ye Chen and the others in full military uniform, as well as the dead zombies on the ground not far away, he let out a sigh of relief. He opened the door and smiled, "Finally, someone saw me. I knew that the country's army would definitely set up a base to save this old man."
Mu Bai Feng looked at the old man's room and asked curiously, "Are you alone?"
The old man sighed and said, "Yes, my wife died many years ago. My children are not filial and rarely come back."
Ye Chen frowned and said, "How did you survive for three months by yourself?"
The old man looked at him with a trace of praise in his eyes, "That is a good question. But fortunately, my room is spacious. Plus, I don't like to move around and I'm too lazy to go out often. So, there are a lot of food and desserts in the house. I eat a little porridge every meal and barely make it through."
Ye Chen nodded. Generally speaking, a bag of rice and porridge for every meal was enough to last a long time. Moreover, this old man ate very frugally. Plus, other than rice, there were a lot of desserts that could replenish the body's calories. So, it was not strange that he could survive for three months.
"Let's go. Let's go to another place first." Mu Bai Feng said.
The old man looked around and saw that there were no monsters. He suddenly went into the room. Not long after, he came out with half a bag of rice on his shoulder and said with a smile, "I have prepared a lot of rice at home. But now, there is only half a bag left. I believe that your army is also very short of food. I can't leave it here and waste it."
Everyone was stunned.
After eating for three months, there was only half a bag of rice left. How much rice did you prepare at home?
Are you preparing to fight the War of Resistance Against Japan?
The old man smiled and squinted his eyes. He looked quite wretched.
Mu Bai Feng smiled bitterly and took the lead to walk out. The rest of the soldiers surrounded the old man. If the old man died, then the mission would be considered a failure. All their previous efforts would be in vain.
Ye Chen walked to the old man's side and whispered, "Old man, what did you do before?"
The old man was startled for a moment. He immediately looked at Ye Chen and whispered, "Nuclear weapon, atomic bomb. Have you heard of it?"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said, "This... Everyone on earth knows about it right?"
The old man's smile was a little proud, "I was a member who was responsible for supervising the development of these powerful weapons. Although it was not a nuclear weapon, but some of the military weapons were developed under my supervision. Later, because of my age, I retired."
Ye Chen was a little surprised. He did not expect that the old man in front of him was a high ranking official of the Ministry of National Defense. No wonder the army would send a team to rescue him. Moreover, he lived in such a luxurious building.
"Young man, if you have any problems in the future, feel free to ask me for help. My name is Guo Cheng." The old man laughed loudly.
"Okay!" Ye Chen nodded.
Perhaps in the future, when he obtained the weapon manufacturing blueprints for the ruins of the prehistoric civilization, he would really need this old man's help.
"Prehistoric civilization..." Ye Chen muttered in his heart. He made up his mind. Next month, when he was promoted to the rank of general, he would leave the base city and search for the ruins of the prehistoric civilization.
Some ruins were too dangerous. For example, the ruins under Bermuda. Just the entrance alone was guarded by seven or eight Sea Dragon Kings, not to mention entering to search for treasures.
Therefore, it was very important to increase one's strength. According to the records of his previous life, China Base City would excavate a spatial connection point to the ruins of Atlantis. This ruins of Atlantis was very advanced. It was classified as a level six ruin. Its area was about the size of a city. It was said that there were many mechanisms inside, and there were also extremely powerful guardian beasts!
In his previous life, this ruin was occupied by China Base City and became their lair. The specific situation inside was not disclosed to the public. Ye Chen only heard about it on the way and knew very little. Other than knowing where the spatial connection point was, he only knew one thing — God's Blood!
God's Blood!
In his previous life, it was ranked number one on the world's treasure list. However, no one knew what it was used for. It was only known that those who obtained God's Blood would eventually become immortal!
In his previous life, it was said that this God's Blood was obtained by a super strong person in China Base City. That person used the God's Blood to become an existence that surpassed the Ten Great Supersoldiers. He surpassed the "King" and "Emperor" levels and received the title of "Emperor"!
His strength was terrifyingly strong. He stood at the top of the world and was also China Base City's absolute trump card at that time!
Unfortunately, in the end, this strong person fell under Bermuda. He was killed by the combined efforts of countless sea creatures. His body was turned into dust, and the God's Blood disappeared without a trace.
Ye Chen joined the Base City for many reasons. The most important of which was to obtain the God's Blood!
He also thought of going alone and entering the ruins of the Atlantis civilization to secretly take the God's Blood. However, a level-6 ruin was extremely dangerous. It involved all kinds of traps, such as mazes, patterns, death passages, intelligence traps, and so on. These were all famous traps in ruins like Atlantis. They were extremely difficult to deal with.
The guardian monster at the entrance alone would need to be shot down with large weapons such as laser cannons. Unless Ye Chen reached the iron-level of level 1,000, he would not have the chance to sneak in alone.
Although there was a possibility that the God's Blood would be taken away by others if he entered with the army of the Base City, the risk was much lower than going alone. Moreover, even if it was taken away, Ye Chen would kill the person regardless of the consequences and take it back!
