spooky invasion

Chapter 1313 Panic Spreads
The two captains looked at each other and saw obvious uneasiness in each other's eyes.To be honest, they are not afraid of fierce enemy attacks. After all, there are hundreds of people in the base.Moreover, every one of them is an awakened person. If they fight openly, no matter what they do, it will be clear.

What they are afraid of is this kind of mysterious attack, which is completely confusing.

We clearly heard the enemy's sentinels on alert over there, but if they could escape from the battlefield, could they rush to that side for reinforcements?Obviously not.

Their defense zone is here, and they must stick to it and not leave it even a step.

After their defense zone is attacked, they are always suspicious.It always feels like there are countless enemies lurking at the end of the invisible field of vision, who may launch a general attack on the base at any time.

This is the biggest weakness of Xie Chun's gang. They have no experience in hard battles and almost no scientific daily training. Once they encounter war, their unprofessionalism and lack of discipline will undoubtedly be reflected.

The whistles of enemy attacks came one after another, which created an illusion in other areas of the base. Enemy attacks came from all directions. Are we surrounded?
Is the military and official forces dispatched together to destroy the base?
Within the base, there is a lack of overall scheduling and communication.At this time, Xie Chun's disadvantage of not being at the base became apparent.

If Xie Chun was in charge at the base, he would personally take action, arrange for the guards battalions to move around and share information with each battalion as soon as possible, so as to appease people's hearts and at least make the entire base less nervous.

But Xie Chun's substitute obviously doesn't have the ability or the responsibility.

He himself is a substitute, a sculpture for worship, and he must not come out to appear.Once it appears, it will no longer work, and may even reveal its secret on the spot.

Sometimes, decisions at critical moments, as well as personal aura and demeanor, even the most perfect stand-in with a flawless image cannot imitate the charm of temperament at all.

As a result, the base fell into great chaos.

Fortunately, the structure Xie Chun set for the base is still there, and everyone at least knows what they should do even if a battle breaks out.Even though people are panicking, the entire base has not completely exploded.

However, under the panic of the people, if this situation is allowed to run unchecked, and this sense of crisis is shrouded, collapse will be a matter of time.

The leaders of several battalions would naturally not let this happen.

Master Dao from Blade Camp was the first to react.He led a few personal followers and immediately arrived at the defense area at the base gate.

When the two team captains saw Mr. Dao coming, it was as if they saw the backbone, and they suddenly became much more stable.

"What's going on? Did the first wave of enemy attack sentries come from your side? Why is there no movement here? Who is the enemy? What's the background?" Master Dao asked several questions in one go.

The supporting team leader subconsciously stepped back half a step, looked at Qingzi, and motioned for him to answer.

Qingzi also felt very angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to be careless when facing Mr. Dao, and he had no choice but to briefly state what happened just now.

After all, Master Dao is the second-in-command, so he still has some psychological quality.

After hearing this, he did not lose his composure. He walked to the two piles of meat and looked at them for a moment. He frowned and said, "This must be a trick of the enemy, deliberately creating panic through a terrorist attack."

"Master Dao is wise." Naturally, the two team captains could not deny Master Dao's judgment.

"Everyone, cheer up and keep an eye on your respective defense areas. Try not to let the brothers be left alone." Master Dao ordered.

This is not difficult, these people naturally obey and do what Master Dao tells them.

"Master Dao, how can the enemy be so weird? Could it be that he is really an evil ghost?" Qingzi had some psychological shadow and couldn't help but ask.

"Where do so many evil monsters come from? It would be easier to deal with if they were evil monsters. We are all awakened, ghosts should be afraid of us!" Dao Ye said coldly.

"Yes, but the method of killing is too hidden. The murderer must be found out. Otherwise, if they are allowed to create panic like this, I'm afraid there will be a lot of chaos this night." Qingzi couldn't help but say a few more words. .

"Hmph, you just need to guard the defense zone. Master Xie and I will naturally make plans for these things. These are probably little tricks played by the enemy, deliberately testing our background." Master Dao made this judgment.

"Yes, we can't mess up our position." Another team leader agreed, "If they really have the ability to attack our base, they won't engage in these shameful little tricks. The more they engage in these little tricks, the more they prove that they are not capable of attacking our base." With this ability, you can only use this disgusting method to disgust people."

Master Dao didn't answer. His mind was calm and he would not make wrong judgments based on his subordinate's words.

After some encouragement and a shot of chicken blood for everyone present, Mr. Dao didn't stay much longer.Instead, he ordered a few elite subordinates to patrol around the base to collect intelligence from everywhere, so that accurate intelligence could arrive everywhere quickly, thus causing panic.

As long as each defense zone defends its position without making any mistakes, even if there is an intruder, it may not cause much trouble.

The most urgent thing now is not to find and destroy the enemy, but to stabilize the interior, appease the people, and prevent the interior from collapsing due to terror first.

Master Dao is different from Xie Chun. He has always been more down-to-earth. He has a deeper understanding of the situation of each battalion than Xie Chun and knows the specific conditions of each battalion better.

In this current situation, Lord Dao naturally knows better what to do.

Master Dao didn't even check the next place where the enemy attack alarm was issued, but went straight to Xie Chun's residence.At this time, when meeting Mr. Xie, asking Mr. Xie for an idea, or even coming forward to appease people, is the top priority.

As for the enemy attack alarm, Mr. Dao guessed that the situation at the main entrance of the base was probably the same. There should have been a small-scale sneak attack, with some casualties.

The casualties caused by this kind of sneak attack are currently acceptable to the base.

Master Dao quickly arrived at Master Xie's residence, but was stopped by people from the guard camp.

"Master Dao, Master Xie has already rested. You'd better not disturb him at this point, right?"

Dao Ye stared in disbelief: "Do you know what you said? You don't have ears? The enemy attack alarm was not mentioned or something? The enemies have all come to the base, can Master Xie sleep?"

Others may be afraid of the Guards Camp, but who is Mr. Dao?He is the second in command at the base.No matter how strong the elite of the Guards Battalion is, they cannot openly contradict Lord Dao.

The guard was hesitant: "Master Dao, you know, it is our duty to protect Master Xie. Why don't you tell us later?"

Mr. Dao waved his hand angrily: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's so urgent, why do you still care about this?"

After a while, the guard returned: "Master Dao, Master Xie has spoken, asking you to organize your manpower and deploy all your strength. He has other important matters tonight and is unable to show up."

Master Dao couldn't believe it: "Are you sure these are Master Xie's original words?"

The guard smiled bitterly and said: "Master Dao, even if I have a few brains, I don't dare to say anything randomly. It must be Master Xie's original words. Master Xie also said that the team has not encountered any test before, and tonight he is... We need to test the performance of each battalion to see if the brothers he has raised can handle the task." Test?

Mr. Dao was a little doubtful.Is this a test of the brothers in each battalion, or a test of my old sword?
But Mr. Xie has already said so. As the second-in-command, can Mr. Dao still force his way in?After all, he is the second in command, and Mr. Xie's authority cannot be challenged.If he breaks in forcefully, his nature will change.And the relationship between the two will become very difficult to handle in the future.

Although he was full of doubts, Master Dao was not stubborn after all.Although he was angry when he didn't see Xie Chun, he still left with a dark face.

Since Mr. Xie has spoken and let Lao Dao take charge of the overall situation, it would be a bit pretentious for him to shirk it anymore.When it comes to understanding each battalion and commanding the battle, Dao Ye indeed feels that he is doing his part.

No matter what Xie Chun thinks, Master Dao feels that he has a clear conscience.Since you ask me to do it, then I will do it.

An order was issued immediately, and all battalion teams waiting for shift handover were on standby and entered combat status.

All lights in the base are turned on, so there is no need to worry about energy consumption.

Non-combatants must stay in the house and are not allowed to leave the house without permission.

Inside the base, a state of martial law was entered.

As orders were issued one after another, the panic in the base was relieved a lot.

But the sense of security that the room can provide is actually limited. What can give them a sense of security is the war outside the base and specific enemy attack intelligence.

But no one can provide this specific information.

Because the whistle of enemy attack has appeared in three places so far.The number of people who were attacked was close to ten.

Some were cut into pieces, some were black and miserable, some were swollen like purple balloons, some had their lower bodies chopped to pieces, and some were hanged directly from a high place...

Every way of death seemed very tragic.

Each of these dead people is an awakened person and has more or less awakening skills.Although it cannot be regarded as the base's top combat power, it is by no means the kind of existence that just pretends to be fake.

But without exception, they all died violent deaths.

How they died, who the murderer was, and how the murderer did it, there is no solid evidence until now. It feels like they died inexplicably and unclearly.

A kind of psychology spreads panic in the base.

When something cannot be explained scientifically, it is naturally inevitable to associate it with ghosts and gods.Especially in this weird world, evil spirits do indeed exist.

And among the combatants at the base, which one of them didn’t take a life at his hands?Which one of them doesn't have the ghosts of injustice and resentment under his command?

Could it be that the wronged souls who were killed by them before evolved into resentful ghosts and came to seek revenge on them?
This simple concept of karma is still a relatively popular way of thinking in the minds of the people at the bottom.

As this fear continues to spread, this thinking will continue to expand.

At first, it was just some ordinary soldiers who thought so. Later, some squad leaders were also affected and inevitably had some doubts.

Isn't it really the revenge of the resentful ghost?If this is the case, then I don’t know how this trouble will end.Although the deterrent power of ghosts in the Strange Era is not as scary as in the Sunshine Era, if they cannot be dealt with forever, the psychological deterrent effect on everyone is still huge.

Especially the soldiers from each battalion who had seen the tragic conditions of the deceased felt a huge shadow in their hearts.

Fortunately, Dao Ye's order was issued in time, and he personally inspected each defense area, gave lectures to each defense area, and boosted morale.

Let me tell you that the base has strong troops and good geographical advantages, so we are not afraid of a battle.As long as their respective defense zones are well defended, these little tricks are nothing to fear.

He also promised that he, Master Dao, would personally come to the front line and fight with the brothers, and would never hide behind and let the brothers charge into the battle.

Dao Ye personally took action, and this psychological comfort is still very important.At least the restless and anxious mood of each camp has been greatly alleviated.

But tonight is destined to be anything but peaceful.

Just after the situation became a little calmer, bad news suddenly came from the defense area. It was said that some strange bugs appeared in a certain defense area of ​​the Vulture Camp. They were specially designed to bite people's necks. Their bites were harsh and painful. It was suspected that there were Highly toxic.The brothers who were bitten have very severe symptoms and now need medical assistance.

The worst condition in the base is in the medical area.

After all, they are in the countryside, and the largest medical institution they can raid is a health center in a township.

How many medical equipment can a health center in a remote rural area have?Drug reserves are also woefully small.

The most critical thing is that there is a serious shortage of medical manpower.The strange era was not formed in a day or two.Before the disaster, the entire society had actually slowly lost its normal functioning structure.

Although there are people at the health center who are always on duty, most doctors and nurses are no longer able to come to work.

Therefore, even if Xie Chun and others raided the health center, they would only be able to get very few medical professionals, not to mention some who were bullied to death by them.

When more and more patients are bitten by strange bugs, this medical assistance is obviously far from enough.

The most important thing is that even the doctors arrested at the health center can't do anything about this weird wound.After all, physicians have a fixed set of rules for treating patients. They are not good at treating patients with mosquito bites and insect bites, and it is not their area of ​​expertise.

In addition, this is a strange era, and the wounds bitten by strange insects are obviously different from those in the sunny era, which makes it even more out of line.

The two doctors at the base stared with big eyes, looking at the terrifying purple wound like spider silk, which continued to enlarge and turn black at a speed visible to the naked eye. They had already had a premonition from their years of medical experience that this was a highly poisonous wound. It is spreading, and there is no way to deal with it without the right medicine.

And the speed at which the poison develops is such that even if treatment is carried out on the spot, it will be too late.

The battalion officer of the Vulture Battalion was the bald man. He was the most anxious when he saw his brothers being bitten constantly.

He could barely accept the death of one or two people, but they fell one by one. In just a short time, more than a dozen fell, which made him unable to sit still at all.He felt that he had to find a way with Mr. Xie.
