Chapter 313 Peeping
Lu Ming's shout broke the tranquility of the evening.There was an immediate commotion in this heavily guarded base.A team of patrolling guards ran over quickly, and several of them even raised their guns.

After seeing clearly that it was Lu Ming, the leading guard heaved a sigh of relief and asked after saluting, "Captain Lu, what happened?"

"It's okay. No, you go and prepare the helicopter, immediately! Now!"

Sensing the urgency of the situation, the leading guard hurriedly responded yes, and then left immediately.

At this time, both He Wei and Zhang Dingshan's doors were opened.The two looked at Lu Ming solemnly.

"what happened?"

Lu Ming looked at He Wei: "I want to conduct a detailed investigation of the Nanli Laser Research Institute. I want to know what they are doing, but I must not alarm anyone there. What should I do? By the way, Assume the people inside are already on high alert."

He Wei only thought for a moment, and immediately replied: "In this case, I will use a large number of drones to scout from a high altitude. As long as the altitude is raised above 300 meters, the ground will not hear a sound. We have a special drone Man-machine, at this height can..."

"Okay, that's it! Come with me, bring more drones of this kind, more drone pilots, more guards, go!"

"Lu Ming, what happened?!"

"It's too late to explain, come with me! Hurry up! I'm afraid it will be too late!"

Sensing Lu Ming's eagerness and solemnity, the two of them didn't hesitate any longer. While giving orders, they immediately followed Lu Ming's footsteps.

Hurrying to the place where the helicopter was parked, several people saw that the place had turned into a mess.Hundreds of guards and drone pilots lined up and rushed over, while the logistics staff moved one after another of the big boxes, and they didn't even have time to open them, so they piled them into the helicopter.

In less than 10 minutes, everything was ready.The three of Lu Ming also jumped into a helicopter, and immediately took off with a roar.

Until now, Zhang Dingshan, He Wei, and the numerous guards didn't even know where they were going or what they were going to do.

Lu Ming pulled a high-precision map, looked at it, and pointed his finger directly to a point: "Go here!"

Looking over, Zhang Dingshan saw that it was a relatively flat place in Nanli Mountain.

But there is nothing here, and there are no buildings, so it doesn't look like it is valuable.

Zhang Dingshan did not hesitate at all, took the communicator directly, and ordered: "Mobile to the following coordinates!"

Lu Ming also shouted: "Except for the drone pilot, everyone else is wearing the same equipment as in the siege battle a few days ago! Wear it now! The pilot prepares the drone!"

So, even on the helicopter, the guards took all the equipment with them.The same is true for He Wei.

With the helicopter flying at full speed, it took only a few minutes to arrive at the open space Lu Ming pointed out.The helicopter landed with a roar, and teams of guards all jumped out.

"Lu Ming, what should we do next?"

Lu Ming looked at He Wei: "Take people, lurk to the Nanli Laser Research Institute, and wait for the next order! Be careful, there may already be a gathering place for monsters, be careful, and be careful not to be caught by them." Discover!"

He Wei was taken aback: "The monster gathering place? What do you mean? Aren't all the monsters killed?"

"It's too late to explain, let's go!"

"Okay, half an hour at most!"

Only then did Zhang Dingshan realize that the place Lu Ming had chosen was just the closest place suitable for helicopter landing without alarming the Laser Research Institute.

"Lu Ming, why do you say that Nanli Laser Research Institute may become a gathering place for monsters? What did you think of?"

"I thought of a possibility within the scientific system that could fully explain this incident."

Lu Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead with a little trembling, and said in a trembling voice: "This portends a terrible consequence. What I'm doing now is to investigate the situation somewhere and verify this idea.

Captain, the logic in this is very complicated, and I can't explain it clearly in a short time.Now, let's do some scouting now, hope I'm wrong, hope I'm wrong...

Are the drones ready?alright?Alright, captain, go and command the drone formation, be careful not to disturb them..."

Lu Mingyue gave the order directly instead of Zhang Dingshan.Zhang Dingshan's face was full of dignity, but without any hesitation, he directly passed Lu Ming's request as the commander-in-chief of the scene.

At this most urgent moment, he chose to trust Lu Ming without reservation.

Dozens of silent large multi-rotor drones took off with a roar, and quickly flew into the sky. Their sounds quickly diminished until they were no longer detectable.

At an altitude of hundreds of meters, these drones quickly rushed towards the direction of Nanli Laser Research Institute, and it didn't take long for them to reach the sky above the research institute.The investigation then began.

It is night now.The lights of these drones have been turned off, and they are at an altitude of hundreds of meters, which is impossible to see with the naked eye.And these drones are all silent models, so there is no need to worry about the sound being heard at this distance.

Facing the Nanli Laser Research Institute, which is located at the highest point of the surrounding terrain, it is indeed the best method to use drones to conduct investigations from a higher place.

Dozens of drone pilots gathered together, concentrating on manipulating the drones.The pictures they sent back also occupied dozens of screens.

A map was displayed on the screen in front of Zhang Dingshan and Lu Ming, with dozens of red dots on the map.Lu Ming knew that each red dot represented a drone.If you want to use which drone perspective, select it, and the picture it takes will be displayed on the screen.

At this moment, Lu Ming chose a drone located above the center of the research institute, and opened its screen.

Under the night, the Nanli Laser Institute, taken with a low-light lens, is clearly visible.Then Lu Ming saw that the array of projectors that he had placed there to project pictures of the Magic Eye galaxy on the cliff had disappeared at this moment.

After the mission is completed, these projectors will be disposed of by the Laser Research Institute.Now, no idea where they got those projectors.

Lu Ming's expression became more serious.

He was thinking hard, thinking fast.At this moment, he was so focused that he didn't even notice the sweat streaming into his eyes.

Even though Zhang Dingshan had tens of thousands of questions in his mind at the moment, he wisely chose not to disturb Lu Ming.

Lu Ming was carefully observing the situation inside the Laser Research Institute.

He saw that there was actually nothing strange inside the institute.

The street lights were on as usual, and most of the room lights in the research institute building were off, only a few rooms were still on.

After all, it was already off-duty time, and it was normal for most rooms to turn off the lights.

There were people walking slowly in the courtyard, some came out of the building, and some went in.The number of people is a little less, which is also normal.

No matter from which angle you look at it, everything here is normal.

"Can the drone directly capture the scene inside the room of the research institute building?"

"can."

The leader of the drone pilot team immediately replied: "As long as you find the right angle, even if the lights in the room are turned off, the low-light lens can still take pictures. Not only that, but if someone is talking inside, the drone can also eavesdrop. "

Lu Ming was taken aback.

It is understandable to capture the picture, but to eavesdrop on the sound, how is this possible?

There are hundreds of meters between the two, one on the ground and the other in the sky.

The person in charge quickly said: "Sound waves can cause glass vibrations. The laser shock meter on the drone can capture this vibration of the glass in real time, and then decode it to restore it to the sound that we humans can hear."

"Okay, check room by room. If you detect someone, report it immediately."

"Yes."

Lu Ming originally thought that the result would appear soon, after all, even if he was off work at this moment, there should be quite a few people in the building.

But unexpectedly, after more than ten minutes, no one reported.

The person in charge of the pilot team said: "Except for the rooms without windows inside, there are a total of 136 rooms in the research institute building. So far, 89 rooms have been investigated, and no people have been photographed, and no sound has been captured."

"In the room with the lights on, no?"

"No."

"Continue to investigate."

"Yes."

The drone eventually inspected all 136 rooms in total.The end result turned out to be that among so many rooms, there was only one room with people.

Lu Ming immediately recognized the room.

Lu Ming had been in and out of this room many times before when the projector array was set up in the Nanli Laser Research Institute.

It's the control room of the institute.The staff of the Laser Research Institute can control the operation of various instruments and equipment and monitor their status here.

Lu Ming gave the command to switch the screen, and the screen shot by a drone facing the room was displayed on the screen.

It was a room with the lights off.In the room, only the light from the display screens provided light for the room, and reflected faces.

There are dozens of people, sitting in front of dozens of computers, busy operating.There were still a few people standing there quietly, as if they were overseeing work.

"This is the sound heard."

The sound restored by detecting the vibration of the glass was played.

Lu Ming heard the crackling sound of typing on the keyboard, but there was nothing else.

There was no one in the room with the lights on, and everyone gathered in the control room with the lights off...

What exactly does this mean?
Lu Ming didn't know.

He couldn't be sure that most of the people studying at this moment gathered here just because there were some projects to be done, and whether the lights in the room were not turned on just because of some kind of needs—such as some kind of optical needs, after all This is an optical research institute, and, at the moment, no one is talking just because there is no need to talk.

Or...is there really something weird?
Lu Ming couldn't be sure just through the remote observation of the drone.At the same time, because of some kind of worry, Lu Ming couldn't send people to sneak into the research institute to observe on the spot.

He was afraid of alarming the enemy—if the people in the research institute were really enemies at this moment.

Time passed bit by bit, and at this moment, it was completely dark.The Nancheng city in the distance has been lit up, clearly visible in the dark night sky.

At this moment, I don't know how many people are enjoying the rare leisure time.Lu Ming could even imagine that there must be a huge flow of people on the food street where all kinds of delicacies gather.

Buddies drinking and chatting, couples on a date, girlfriends at a party, couples with children...

Every store is probably full, and there are even people queuing up.

The major shopping malls should also be full of people, and the roads are full of traffic...

This is a city with a population of over [-].Although it is not ranked among human civilizations, it is still not small in terms of absolute size.

It carries the lives of tens of thousands of people, the lives of tens of thousands of people, and the laughter and tears of tens of thousands of people.

There was more sweat on Lu Ming's forehead.

Time passed bit by bit.Every second that passed, the hidden danger increased a little.

Zhang Dingshan frowned slightly, and looked at Lu Ming: "Let He Wei sneak in and investigate?"

"No, no." Lu Ming shook his sweaty head lightly: "If the people in the laser research institute have turned into monsters—or just monsters that still maintain their human appearance, once they are alarmed If they run away in all directions, there are too few people in He Wei's place to stop them at all."

"Then mobilize the garrison! Surround the research institute! The field army hasn't withdrawn yet!"

Lu Ming looked at the map.

If one wanted to complete the encirclement without disturbing the personnel inside the institute, the encirclement circle must be expanded very large.And here is a mountainous area with complex terrain and lush jungles.

To complete the siege, it is impossible to have thousands of people.However, the transfer of thousands of people takes too long...

I'm afraid I'm running out of time...

"Let's inform the garrison first, but it should be too late. Be careful, you must march in cover, and don't disturb them..."

Zhang Dingshan directly took out the phone and called.

Lu Ming's attention was once again focused on the screen captured by the drone.

He saw that at this moment, in the control room of the Laser Research Institute with the lights off, apart from the sound of typing on the keyboard, there was finally other movement at this moment.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.The sound of footsteps came, and under the low-light camera, a small monster with a pointed head and a body full of hideous bone spurs came over with an iron plate.

monster?

monster!

Lu Ming's whole body trembled.

The next moment, a scene that made him feel even more horrified appeared.

The monster walked up to a researcher typing on a keyboard and stood still.The researcher turned around, stretched out his hand, and directly picked out one of his eyeballs and put it on the plate.

After that, he turned around again and started typing on the keyboard, and the monster came behind the next person with the iron plate.
