third rebirth

After dinner, five people sat together for a meeting.

Ling Chen bent his fingers and tapped on the wall of the carriage, "I said, comrades from the Second Department, can you show some regular army spirit?"

Jialan covered her mouth and yawned twice, with some physiological tears in the corners of her eyes, and replied feebly, "Can the commander-in-chief set an example first?"

Ling Chen spread his long legs, sat lazily, his back was not straight, and one hand was still on the back of Ye Xiao's neck, kneading it repeatedly, he mused, "Forget it, come on, Start the meeting first."

Jiang Cancan seized the opportunity to show off his superb idiom skills, "Wow, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, brother Chen, let's understand how it works?"

Ling Chen pretended not to hear, and said in a rambling voice, "Today is June 27th, the [-]th day since we entered Zone D. All of us survived without serious injuries. Thank you for being alive."

Jialan yawned again and waved his hand, "Well, you're welcome."

Ling Chen continued, "During this period, we encountered a total of 50 mob attacks, eliminated about [-] people from the [-]th and [-]th groups of the Holy Tribunal, as well as the two mercenaries 'Heart' and 'Queen', and executed a traitor. , Blowing up a biological research institute by the way. And, all eight data detectors were successfully installed. From this point of view, we seem to be doing a good job.”

Jiang Cancan raised his hand, "Brother Chen, I've applied to go back to eat barbecue! The kind that will keep you full!"

Ling Chen nodded politely, "Approved, public expenses will be paid."

Jialan regained her energy in an instant, and sat up straight for a second, "Roast the whole lamb!"

Ling Chen was rare and generous: "Okay."

Jiang Mu raised his head, "Application for a new set of equipment."

Quickly estimating in his mind how much it would cost to replace the equipment, Ling Chen took a breath, "The application...approved."

Jiang Cancan cheered: "Brother Chen, you are a good person! Master Can, I will never call you an old man again!"

"Okay, okay, let's be serious, let's start the meeting." Ling Chen smiled, and his tone became more serious, "We are about to enter the center circle of D area, if the target of the Holy Tribunal is the core of the area, then we and them will definitely be in the center Let’s meet in the circle. When the time comes, either they will die or we will die, and whoever can get out of Zone D alive will depend on their ability.”

Several people did not speak.

Ling Chen's voice sank, "Walking out of Area D alive may not necessarily make him alive when he returns to the military area."

His eyes flicked past Jiang Cancan and the others, "You should also realize that according to the current situation, there are problems in the command center and even in the military area. There are so many spies and undercover agents working in it, and we don't know what to do. Clearly, we can’t get in touch with the outside world now, so let’s talk about it first—saving your life is the most important thing, I don’t want you to die in the hands of your own people instead of being killed by mobs and enemies.”

After two seconds, he raised his voice, "Do you hear clearly?"

"Listen clearly!"

Ling Chen: "Okay, the meeting is over!"

The armored car drove all day, and at dusk, the car stopped at the border of the central circle.Jiang Mu fiddled with the instrument in his hand, "Going 500 meters further, you will enter the range of the center circle. The turbulent data flow inside is like a vortex, and the magnetic field is directly scrapped inside. If you shoot with your hands, the hit rate may be higher."

Jiang Cancan put his head on Jiangmu's shoulder and looked at the screen together, "I'm so angry, ever since I entered Zone D, Master Can, my character set of a sharpshooter with every shot and every shot has collapsed!"

Jiang Mu turned his head slightly and glanced at him, "I'm so angry every day, are you a puffer fish?"

"..." Jiang Cancan became even more angry!

On the other side, Ling Chen was just opening his mouth to eat the candied cherries that Ye Xiao fed him. His lips brushed against Ye Xiao's fingertips. He licked his lips subconsciously. Two seconds later, he felt that his actions were a bit abnormal, and he silently disliked them in his heart. Take it yourself.

Ye Xiao enjoyed eating cherries, and when he met a plump and big one, he would feed it to Ling Chen's mouth.

When Ye Xiao finished eating the whole can, Ling Chen stretched out his hand to pinch his chin, helped him wipe off the light red cherry stains on his lips, and said softly, "After finishing the mission in Area D, I will lead the team back to The military region has handed over the mission."

Ye Xiao hugged the can and nodded, he knew, of course he had to leave Area D after completing the task.

Seeing him looking at him obediently, Ling Chen simply said, "I'm leaving soon."

Ye Xiao said "Oh", and tilted his head, "I'm going to do the mission too." Saying that, he fed the last cherry at the bottom of the jar to Ling Chen's mouth.

Ling Chen didn't eat, and when he met Ye Xiaoqing's lingling eyes, he felt a little annoyed—fuck, this heartless little thing!

Seeing that Ling Chen didn't eat, Ye Xiao stuffed the cherries back into her mouth, and after a few seconds, she suddenly said sullenly, "Why don't the cherries taste sweet anymore after hearing what you said?"

Ling Chen looked at him with his head down, the fine black hair dangling on his forehead, and holding an empty can of cherries in his hands, feeling very depressed.

He really wanted to ask, do you want to come with me and join the second department, Brother Chen will protect you.But he knew in his heart that they didn't know what the situation was when they went back this trip.There are traitors in the command center, and they even want them to die quietly in D area.

There are more ills than good luck.

And Ye Xiao was still young, so he shouldn't have dragged him into the vortex of power.

Ling Chen suffered from insomnia at night, and he didn't fall asleep until midnight. He stared at the roof of the car for more than half an hour, with all kinds of thoughts in his mind.Confirming that Ye Xiao was fast asleep with the long knife in his arms, he stretched out his hand and hugged him into his arms.

Ye Xiao didn't have any defenses against him, just like a kitten that exposed its belly to be petted, it consciously nestled into Ling Chen's arms, and even found a comfortable position by itself, and soon fell asleep again.

Ling Chen gently pinched the tip of his nose—tsk, you little heartless.

Early the next morning, Jiang Mu started the armored vehicle and drove directly into the center circle.At the moment of entering the circle, all the electronic instruments on the car displayed garbled characters, and they were all scrapped.

Jiang Cancan poked the touch screen curiously, "Damn it, is there really no response? The map is gone?"

Jiang Mu reminded him, "Look outside the car."

Jiang Cancan subconsciously followed suit, and when he raised his head, he was frightened, "What kind of weird place is this? Why do cactus grow in the water, and tropical trees grow side by side with those in the sub-frigid zone?"

Jiang Mu: "Because the data is disordered, there is no pattern at all." Suddenly, Jiang Mu stepped on the brakes, and Jiang Cancan leaned forward following the inertia, grasping the K57 tightly, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

Jiang Mu stared at the road ahead, "There is a nail belt on the ground."

Jiang Cancan jumped out of the car, squatted down and carefully checked the nail belt hidden in the grass, "I'm so fucking willing to spend money!" After confirming that there was no problem, Jiang Cancan picked up the nail belt with both hands, and judged, "The quality is very good, our car Press it over, absolutely 100% flat tire!"

He searched around again, and climbed back to the co-pilot, "No more, just that one."

Jialan propped his chin with his hand, "Why did the Holy Inquisitor put the nail belt on the edge of the center circle? They don't know where we came from. Could it be that the car can't fit it?"

Ling Chen twisted his fingers, "It should be for deterrence and reminder."

Jiang Cancan answered: "Do you want to tell us that they have already entered first, so let us be careful?"

Ling Chen nodded; "Almost." He ordered again, "Don't take it lightly, the combat power of one group is stronger than that of five and seven groups combined, and you won't be in a hurry to give away the heads and supplies, you one by one, keep it My life."

Except for the nail belt at the beginning, I didn't encounter any traps along the way.Jiang Mu identified the direction and drove all the way to the location of the core of the area.Ling Chen stared at the outside of the car, and suddenly said, "Xiao Mu, slow down the car."

The location where they are located is a winding gravel road, with undulating low hills on the left and slopes on the right, with very little vegetation, so it is not easy for people to hide.

Jiang Cancan turned his head and asked, "Brother Chen, do you suspect there is an ambush?"

Ling Chen said with a sullen face, "Premonition." They, who have been in and out of the mountains of swords and fires all year round, are very sensitive to danger.For a while, no one in the car made a sound, Jiang Mu maintained a speed of thirty yards and drove forward slowly.

After a few breaths, Ye Xiao confirmed that Ling Chen's hunch was correct, "A car is coming."

Ling Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "The vehicle-mounted machine gun is raised, and the weapons are all held firmly."

In less than ten seconds, an army green armored vehicle turned a corner and suddenly appeared within the line of sight of several people. The wheels kicked up a cloud of dust, making it difficult to see clearly.

Ling Chen didn't hesitate at all, "Shoot!"

The next moment, the bullets were fired from the vehicle-mounted machine gun, and all of them deviated from the predetermined trajectory. Jiang Mu directly adjusted it manually. Ten seconds later, he fired again, only to hear the continuous "bang" sound, and the glass of the armored vehicle shattered and debris splashed everywhere.

Ling Chen looked out through the bulletproof glass, and confirmed, "It's a ghost car, it's on autopilot, and there's no one in the car!" With a sudden heartbeat, Ling Chen said anxiously, "Turn the steering wheel to the right, and drive towards the slope! "

With strength in his arms, Jiang Mu turned the steering wheel violently, and the whole car hurried to the right, and the cabin tilted.At the same time, a bomb explodes where they parked before!

In the sand and dust, the entire armored vehicle was hanging on the slope, and the tires on one side were deeply sunk in the soft sand.Ling Chen put on the helmet, put another one on Ye Xiao's head, then kicked open the door of the rear compartment, jumped down with Ye Xiao in his arms, rolled on the spot, and led the people to lie down on the slope.

Jiang Cancan took out the military binoculars and spit out the sand in his mouth, "Bah, bah, bah, the holy judge is so fucking rich, and the mortars are all brought out to show off!" He said quickly, "On the hill at a 6000-degree angle in front, Mortar turret, three people, medium-sized, caliber [-], mass [-] kg, maximum range [-] meters! Get down!"

As soon as his words fell, another shell hit nearby, and the sand splashed. Jiang Cancan coughed several times and was covered in sand.

Ling Chen protected Ye Xiao under his body, and asked Jiang Mu, "Xiao Mu, what is their ballistic hit rate?"

Jiang Mu lay on Jiang Cancan's right side, and his mental calculation speed was extremely fast, "The hit rate is less than 40.00%, otherwise half of our armored vehicles would have been blown up in the first shot."

Ling Chen: "It's fine if you can't hit it right. Pay attention to the right side, I guess there are people in the compartment of that armored vehicle!"

As if to verify his words, two people in camouflage combat uniforms appeared on the roof of the previous ghost armored vehicle, pulled their guns, and aimed directly in the direction of their positions.

The five people quickly moved to the side, and as soon as they lay down again, Jialan set up the tripod with incredible speed.The muzzle of the heavy sniper aimed at the position of the machine gun group of the armored vehicle, and the trigger was pulled. There was a "bang", and it missed. Five seconds later, Jialan corrected the trajectory. This time, three consecutive armor-piercing explosive shells hit the past, and one of them It hit the center of the machine gun group directly, and the remaining two hit the front and the body of the car respectively. With a loud "boom--", the entire armored vehicle was blown to pieces.

"Successful scrapping is just wasting one more bullet for me!" Jia Lan held the heavy gun and tripod, her eyes full of hostility, "Brother Chen, help me take cover? I'll find a place to hide."

Ling Chen made a gesture back, and Jia Lan hunched over and ran away with the gun in his hand.She was so bold that she almost didn't deliberately hide her figure. For a while, all the firepower hidden in the dark was aimed at her, and at the same time, her position was exposed.

Ling Chen poked out the muzzle of his gun, almost firing one shot at a time. After seven shots in a row, he quickly changed his position with Ye Xiao in his arms. Just as he evacuated from his original position, another shell hit him, but it was not accurate enough, and it was a little bit off. However, Ye Xiao's eardrums were still deaf for more than ten seconds.

Jiang Cancan ate another mouthful of sand, "Damn it, it's great to have mortars!"

Ling Chen: "It's just amazing, but it will be gone soon."

Several people hid in place without any movement, as if they were waiting for something. Three minutes later, gunshots rang out, and Jiang Mu affirmed, "It's Jialan!"

Jiang Cancan took out the military binoculars again, "The mortar man is dead! All three are gone, you're amazing brother!"

Ling Chen said in a deep voice, "Jia Lan's position has been exposed, she must quickly evacuate from her position, there may be snipers on the other side. Let's go, come out!"

Immediately afterwards, four people emerged from their hiding positions, and bullets rained down on them, but few hit them, and almost all of them deviated from the planned trajectory.

Jiang Cancan ran quickly, "Damn it, if Lord Chan and I were accidentally killed by a stray bullet, can I apply for a martyr?"

Ling Chen: "Don't even think about it!"

Jiang Mu, who always speaks little, said, "Dare you try to die like this?"

At a critical moment, Jiang Cancan couldn't help but look back at Jiang Mu with shock on his face, "My brother wouldn't talk to me like that!"

Just as Jiang Mu was about to say something, he suddenly saw Jiang Cancan's feet turn and he rushed towards him.The two fell to the ground and rolled several times in a row, covered in sand and stones.

The "pop" sound of the bullet embedded in the flesh was slight, but Jiang Mu still caught it. His pupils constricted, his voice trembled, and his vocal cords were about to bleed, "What the hell are you doing!"

Jiang Cancan lay down on the side, "Grass, Master Can, I'm lucky!" He bent his legs, blood overflowed from nowhere, and soaked the camouflage pants, Jiang Cancan grinned in pain, "The bullet missed so badly, Wiped off the calf."

"This is called rubbing?" Jiang Mu's eyes were red, and he quickly took out the hemostatic medicine and bandage, cut open his trouser leg with a dagger, and quickly bandaged it up, but inevitably, his hand was still covered with blood.

Seeing that his hands were shaking so much that his face turned pale with fright, Jiang Cancan still smiled, "Xiaomu, I'm my brother."

Jiang Mu paused, then quickly bandaged and replied, "Just came out 4 minutes earlier than me."

Jiang Cancan: "It doesn't matter, 4 minutes is still brother! You said how long has it been since you called me brother? You always call me Cancan Cancan in the same way."

At this time, hearing Ling Chen asking from a distance, Jiang Cancan raised his voice, "It's okay, Master Can, I can still fight!"

Both the mortar and machine gun teams have been dealt with. Ling Chen reckoned that the people from the Holy Tribunal would not bring too much property when they entered Area D. He recalled that after Jialan occupied the high point, he had dealt with a total of six people, so he ordered, "Come on, face to face!"

But soon, the two parties who had just faced each other discovered that the ballistic deviation was even more serious than before. Even out of the five shots Ling Chen fired, four of them missed, and they were blown away by the wind.

Jiang Cancan was shocked, "I'm fucking convinced of this wonderful place!"

And at this moment, Ye Xiao's advantage showed up, the bullets couldn't aim at him, but where the light of his knife passed, there would basically be a line of blood.

Ling Chen simply threw the gun, and rushed directly at the enemy in front of him.He has always been ruthless in fighting, and when the other party was not paying attention, he kicked the muzzle of the gun away like lightning, and then pinched his Adam's apple with five fingers, and with a "snap", he lost his breath.

Jiang Cancan dragged his injured leg, but he was still as nimble. He took out the saber from the loop bag on his calf, and prepared to fight in close quarters. When he caught sight of Ling Chen's movements from the corner of his eye, he shuddered—thanks to Master Can, Brother Chen and I are teammates. , if you become an enemy, you might as well commit suicide!

Ling Chen was just about to sweep a man to the ground with his whip leg, and he pulled out the pistol on his waist, placed the muzzle between his eyebrows, pulled the trigger, and killed him with one shot.At this time, he was suddenly bumped away by Ye Xiao who rushed to his side at some point. Ling Chen stabilized his figure, turned around and saw Ye Xiao finish off the person who attacked him with a knife. He showed him a smile.

Obviously before, he was still holding the long knife with a cruel and cold expression, but at this second, he bent his eyes and smiled like a little milk dog begging for praise.

Ling Chen's thoughts that were suppressed in his heart rose again.

"Little Momo."

Ye Xiao heard Ling Chen calling him, and looked over suspiciously.

Ling Chen neatly pulled the man behind the cover, rolling his Adam's apple up and down, "Do you want to—" followed Brother Chen.

But he couldn't ask, because at the same moment, a bomb exploded near them, sparks came overturning with mud and sand, he only had time to pull Ye Xiao into his arms for protection.
