2012

The red early sun shines brightly in the east, and sparkling waves are rippling on the blue sea.

Country Z Penglai Base—one of the twelve major bases, specializes in seawater purification, and at the same time selectively conducts maritime trade with other countries. It is also the only semi-open port city that enters Country Z.Looking down from mid-air, the Penglai base has a very strict plan, basically imitating the square structure of the ancient city, with each area clearly divided, the army is stationed densely near the sea, and the living quarters of the base are located at the rear.

There are three high walls, the outermost one is a stone wall accumulated with huge stones. The city wall is imitated in the ancient style, with forts and fortresses on it; This is a temporary residence area for foreign personnel for one month. Before the second virus hit, some foreign media once accused country Z of "disrespecting the human rights of personnel from other countries! Blatant racial discrimination! There is no demeanor of a big country!" In this regard, The sonorous and forceful answer of the top leader of country Z to the world——

"In the face of the most severe disaster in human history, we can only give priority to ensuring the safety of our own people!" "Foreign visitors who do not have their own nationality or the guarantee and claim of their own nationals will be expelled from the base wall after a one-month sojourn period In addition, if any accident occurs, country Z will not be responsible for it!"

The middle city wall is a black bunker made of reinforced concrete that is more than one meter higher than the outer city wall. The most notable feature of this city wall is that there is a strange-looking extremely high and large-scale flame jet every few hundred meters. It is used to defend the airspace; the distance between the middle city wall and the inner city wall is half a kilometer, and they are connected by slings. In addition to the main channel of the base made of steel, the inner side of the middle city wall is a trench with a depth of tens of meters. The bottom of the trench is densely covered with Z Underwater weapons developed by China.

The inner city wall is the last line of defense of the base. It is higher and more advanced than the two outer ones. The outer one is densely packed with electric grids. The outer two layers are dark in color, showing the dark silver color of high-strength alloy. It is said that this alloy also has The usefulness of the secret lies in it, but until today there is no chance to see it.There are protrusions distributed on the alloy-wrapped wall, and once activated, these protrusions will pull out a small-caliber assault gun that can freely rotate [-] degrees.The inside of the inner city wall has the same weaponry as the outside. Missiles and weapons of mass destruction are also hidden in the inner city wall. It is rumored that there is an underground building under the inner city wall that can accommodate tens of thousands of people as a shelter for the base's final retreat.

Such a powerful base, which is amazing from the outside, can only be established when the situation is not completely out of control by pouring the power of the country.

When country Z changed its policy and established the twelve major bases, its attitude became unprecedentedly tough. Facing the public opinion of various countries and non-stop testing and sabotage, country Z not only mercilessly drove the saboteurs to the red high-risk alert Outside the zone, the basic data of the base's three lines of defense were released to the world. Faced with such powerful "basic" data, the ambitious foreign countries who are eager to take advantage of the opportunity to carve up the big cake of country Z like they did during World War II have restrained themselves a lot. Not much, after all, everyone knows that this is a country that is good at hiding wealth, and no one wants to be the first bird to test the hidden power of country Z.

Just like the only wireless satellite broadcasting channel open to the outside world in country Z, it was ridiculed: "We don't have prisons to imprison those uninvited and malicious 'Judas', and we don't have the right to execute them. They are exiled out of the area controlled by our base! There, trust God to give us a satisfactory outcome."

This passage was widely circulated among politicians, causing countless high-level executives from other countries to gnash their teeth and curse country Z—exile outside the red alert zone, it would be better to just give a bullet!

-

Lin Boning and his helicopter had already been locked by the ground radar system before they flew into the land, and obediently landed on a simple apron outside the Penglai Base for inspection as required.The five of them spoke in Chinese, which made the faces of the serious soldiers who came to check and the soldiers on guard around them slightly calm down.

In the end, when they presented their ID cards, not to mention Luo Qiao, an authentic native of country Z, even the real foreign devil Archibald and the half-foreign devil Li Kai also took out hard ID cards, and what's more, Archibald even had a registered permanent residence. This has it all!This made Lin Boning and Gu Jing, two authentic citizens of country Z, feel very uncomfortable.

Li Kai also shyly explained to Xiaobing: "My mother is from country Z, and she should be at the Penglai base. Two years ago, I voluntarily gave up my Canadian citizenship and joined my mother as a citizen of country Z. However, because I have been studying abroad, my household registration is in my mother's There, so I only have an ID card, is this... OK?"

Xiaobing couldn't hold back his face and nodded with a smile: "It will be fine after our inspection and verification."

Archibald held the dark red household registration book and showed it to Xiaobing. Xiaobing glanced at the tall and strong Archibald, nodded with a strange expression, and asked them to go to the side to accept the instrument test.

When it was Luo Qiao and Lin Boning's turn, the two black households spread their hands awkwardly and said, "I lost all my documents when I was fleeing in country M. We are now black households. So what procedures do we need?"

Xiao Bing nodded understandingly. Such situations are not uncommon, but there are not many returnees like these people who are neatly dressed and energetic, driving a military helicopter.In fact, since the second major outbreak and mutation of the virus, fewer and fewer people returned to the Penglai base from abroad, and they were the only ones in the past ten days.

Xiaobing dutifully asked about the two people's native places as a preliminary reference. Fortunately, Lin Boning checked it when he came to this world. The Z country here is not very different from what he remembered. At least the familiar geographical divisions are the same. The two people He fluently reported the address of the original world, Xiao Bing nodded and let them go to Luo Qiao and others to accept the instrument survey.

The instrument showed green, and the military doctor who tested was also relieved, and said with a gentle smile, "Okay, you are not infected with the virus, and you are all in good health." Having received the T-virus vaccine, one of the substances in the body exceeds that of ordinary people, which is very good, and the base needs such talents."

At this time, Xiaobing came forward to ask to check the inside of the helicopter. Gu Jing waved his hand, signaling them to be casual, and said the conclusion they had agreed on before: "Except for the materials inside, we will hand over this helicopter to the base. Of course, we want to know what is going on. What can I get in exchange for a plane?" He touched his nose and said seriously: "Because we heard before that the base uses contribution points as a common currency."

Xiaobing took a look at the military green helicopter, which was very new. He couldn't help laughing and narrowed his eyes. In the last days, this kind of military helicopter is very useful. Their squadron even dreamed of applying for one. This time it was their squadron on duty. When trading, according to regulations, their squadron has the right to apply first!

The soldiers standing around on guard also grinned, beaming with joy.The little soldier turned around and blew a loud whistle, a huge golden figure galloped over, and the few people froze, subconsciously on guard: Archibald put his hand on the saber on his back, and Gu Jing held it tightly. Fist-shaped, invisible palms were slightly red, and the two consciously stood in front of the other three; Lin Boning's gun had already slipped into his hands, and he was highly concentrated, while Luo Qiao's drooping sleeves were covered with a cloud of white water Light, Li Kai stared, holding the ZB light machine gun on his back in his arms.

In the blink of an eye, the white figure was in front of them. Gu Jing and Archibald took a step back vigilantly, and assumed an attacking posture, only to find that the figure jumped in front of the soldier, "haha", exhaling and wagging its tail, circling around him—— Is it a dog? !

Among the soldiers on the side, the oldest one, around 28, stood up and knocked the soldier on the head angrily: "Nonsense, this is on a mission!"

The golden-yellow giant dog and the little soldier who were being affectionate gave him a flattering look, then hurriedly pretended to be sitting upright, and said loudly: "Yes! Sir!"

The veteran said to Gu Jing and the others: "This is a wolf tooth, there is no danger, and he will cooperate with the inspection of the helicopter."

Lin Boning blinked and looked at the big dog between the two of them. Is it really a dog?A dog the size of an African lion?

After inspecting the helicopter, it can be seen that this team of soldiers is very excited-this kind of helicopter that is biased towards transportation and has a relatively complete weapon system is the best choice!

Xiaobing was afraid that they would repent, so he followed closely when they took a step, and the big golden dog squatting beside him, a person's height, followed suit.Both Lin Boning and Luo Qiao couldn't help looking at it. Li Kai was born afraid of dogs, let alone such big ones, so he hid at the outermost side and wanted to run away immediately.

Everything was fine in the preliminary inspection, and the helicopter he was thinking about was expected to be applied again, and the expressions of these soldiers also relaxed. Seeing the expressions of Lin Boning and Luo Qiao, the soldiers couldn't help puffing up their chests, and said proudly: "This is Spike, we Brother! He is amazing!" Then, he said impatiently: "How much contribution do you want for the helicopter? There are others..." There is no introduction at all about why a dog can grow so big, but everyone has a faint feeling guess.

Lin Boning laughed, boldly patted the soldier on the shoulder under the gaze of Langya, and said: "You can drive it away first, and we will talk about contribution points and other things later. We don't know the rules of the base yet. .And the materials inside, please help us store it for the time being.” It is necessary to establish a good relationship with these people. Anyway, they are not going to want this helicopter, and they can’t afford it. Not to mention anything else, that’s it. They have no place to get aviation kerosene, so they keep this big guy, so as not to cause trouble.

Along the way, these people discussed very clearly that giving the helicopter to the base military would help them integrate into the base on the one hand, and on the other hand, it would also be considered to ask for directions and test the attitude of the military at the base. It's good to plan early.

However, Lin Boning had the idea of ​​putting it into the space, but he gave up after thinking about it. When collecting supplies, both of them rushed to gasoline and diesel. There is no aviation kerosene in the space. The way to search there has been almost used, not to mention that he and Gu Jing will not be able to open it, and there is not so much space left in the space. Besides, the sudden creation of a helicopter is abrupt everywhere. .

The little soldier grinned his teeth when he heard it, and quickly looked at their captain. The veteran thought about it for a minute, then nodded in agreement, and one of the team members stepped out, happily running towards the helicopter.The veteran explained to the five people: "Although you are nationals of your own country, you still have a half-month observation period according to the regulations. During the observation period, you cannot enter the base and need to live in a designated place. There is no place for you to store supplies, so the military Fang will keep it for you temporarily, and will issue a list later, and you can verify it in half a month. There is also a helicopter, and I will give you a proof of IOU, contribution points and other requirements, and we will talk about it after you are familiar with the base situation." The veteran thought for a while, and added: "There is a detailed list of various materials corresponding to the contribution points in the mission hall of the base. You are military helicopters, and the price will never be lower than the price of the helicopters inside." I am also afraid that these people will go back on their word.

All five people nodded. For now, they are very satisfied. These people are disciplined and have a good taste. They only look envious and amazed when they see so many supplies, and they are not malicious or greedy. dodge.In particular, the list of supplies presented by these people is convincing. Lin Boning glanced at it and found that the plan was very detailed. The grains such as rice and flour were all accurate to two, not to mention the others.

The helicopter paused above their heads, and the pilot yelled something before flying away. Unfortunately, under the sound of the rumbling propellers, they only felt his excitement.The little soldier looked up enviously, and stretched out his hand to rub the... chest hair of the giant golden retriever. (This guy is as tall as a squatting giant dog==)

Chapter 31 Finally returned to the country, the base has not yet entered, the first wave to greet us is actually a sea monster? !

"Sir, we want to know about the observation period in the second half of the month and the rules of the base." Lin Boning said to the veteran.The other four listened with pricked ears, Lin Boning was their brain, and it was the unanimous tacit understanding of everyone that he came forward with his delicate mind and sensitive senses at this time.

The old soldier shook his hand and smiled, "Don't call me sir, I'm Wei Yuan." Pointing to the soldier, "He's Xiang Shanqi. The guy who drove the helicopter away is called..." He pointed to the remaining six team members one by one. According to them, the names of the five people were mentioned and recorded during the initial inspection.

Xiao Bing laughed and said, "Just call me Chess."

Nodding to each other, the veteran said again: "The specific rules of the base will be explained to you in half a month, so don't worry about it. Half a month is the inspection period of the base and also the time for you to adapt. During this period, the base will provide you with Housing and food, but the food is not free, you need to pay back with contribution points after half a month. During these 15 days, the base will not only explain the base rules to you, but also popularize the types of zombies and mutant creatures that exist now, and According to personal wishes, you can choose to learn simple fighting techniques and firearm techniques, and some other labor techniques are also available. During this period, you can also earn contribution points. For example, during the last five days of practice, you can apply to go out to collect materials, eliminate Zombies, but those who choose to work in the base cannot exchange for contribution points because they cannot enter the base."

"The most important thing!" Wei Yuan glanced at several people, and said seriously: "The base does not support idlers! Everything you enjoy must be obtained through sacrifice. Your safety can be guaranteed in the base, but yours is not guaranteed. Life!" He paused, and then said: "If it is due to injury or other accidents, the base can give you a good time with a very low contribution point, and there is a minimum living guarantee in the base, but this is mainly for 70-year-olds. Old people above and children under the age of seven. An adult, even if he is injured, the base will only provide a one-month subsistence allowance. After one month, the materials needed for survival must be paid with contribution points. And, regardless of whether there are contribution points or not, for Normal adults who have not participated in any task with a difficulty level greater than two for a month, the base has the right to send them out of the base!"

Lin Boning nodded in agreement. This last item eliminates the possibility that people who come to the base with a large amount of supplies will not contribute. This base looks really good.

Seeing this, Wei Yuan's face calmed down, and he felt a little embarrassed. He touched his forehead to hide his embarrassment, and said with a smile, "I talked too much when I was excited. Other people will explain these things to you." The young people who are about the same age as Chess are very fond of them. They have brought so many supplies. I am afraid that they will not take the rules of the base seriously like the young man who brought a truckload of supplies before, and will be expelled from the base in the end. , can only go to small bases, those places are not as formal as the bases, people who have no strength and carry a load of supplies are simply living targets...

Lin Boning shook his head with a smile: "We hope you can talk more, and you're fine while walking, so if you hear it sooner, you'll know."

The chess soldier and the giant golden retriever stood together, and added a few words briskly: "In fact, the half-month observation period does not have to be enough. The rules of the base and the information on zombies and mutant creatures can be finished in two days. Most of the rest of the time It is to learn technology or something. If you can do it yourself, you don’t need to waste that time. You can apply to go out for practice. After earning enough 1000 contribution points, you can enter the base in advance, but 1000 contribution points are not easy to earn, so most people are It took half a month to get in. However, after entering the base, they are only level one citizens, and can only choose the corresponding level of residence and use the same level of public facilities. This level cannot be exchanged for materials, nor is it based on the amount of contribution points Those who come here can only be obtained by accepting tasks in the task hall and completing them."

Luo Qiao was speechless: "Isn't it difficult to get promoted?"

The chess soldier laughed: "As long as you are diligent, it is not difficult to upgrade at a low level. There are many missions in the mission hall. As long as the base needs it, you can hang up anything. The duty of our army belonging to the base is also doing missions. However, this kind of task will only appear on an independent wall in the hall after it is completed. It will be kept secret before completion and can only be assigned by the military department. Private entrustment is also possible, but not only the contribution points required for the task itself must be paid, but also the base must be paid separately Part of it." He patted his chest and proudly said, "I'm already a citizen of level four!" Then he blushed a little: "It's all thanks to my Langya. During the mission, Langya contributed a lot, so the citizen points were counted towards me up."

Wei Yuan nodded with a smile, and patted the chess soldier's head: "This little guy is the highest-ranking citizen in our team."

Pointing to himself and others, he continued: "The rest are still at level three. The base is divided into ten levels in total, and the higher the level, the harder it is to upgrade. Currently, the highest level of citizens is at level six. This level has nothing to do with the control of the base. Linking is the policy of the base to motivate people to live hard, such as wanting to live in a good house, wanting to buy rare and delicious food from the base store, wanting comfortable clothes, as well as cars and weapons... In addition to having affordable Contribution points, these are linked to the citizen level. A high level means that you have made a great contribution to the base, and you naturally have the right to enjoy a better life.”

He pointed to the quiet giant golden retriever and said, "You must have noticed that Langya is a mutant dog. He caused a sensation when he came to the base with a small chess set. Now there are several mutant animals of relatives in the base. , but you must not think that mutant animals are kinder than zombies. In fact, the danger of encountering zombies in the wild is far less than that of encountering mutant animals! As long as you don’t get dumped by big waves of zombies, the possibility of escaping is still very high Yes, but when encountering a powerful mutated animal, nine out of ten the entire army will be wiped out."

The chess soldier rubbed his wolf's hair with his face, and the giant golden retriever squatted there majestically, but his big brown eyes were full of trust and warmth.

Talking and walking slowly, until Wei Yuan's watch made a "didi" sound, the military team immediately became serious, Wei Yuan said quickly: "We need to meet the team going out in a quarter of an hour, everyone needs to hurry up! Car! We will send you to the temporary housing area immediately." The five people who were fascinated by the listening found that the personnel and equipment that had just inspected them were gone, and even the tents were also removed. Lin Boning suddenly realized that the The small transport vehicle parked on the side is used for this, and it is really very convenient.

Upon hearing the order, these soldiers showed excellent qualities, and within a few seconds they got into the modified minibus and sat down.Li Kai, Luo Qiao and Archibald also rushed up, so Lin Boning and Gu Jing who stayed outside were a little strange.

Lin Boning stared in the direction of the west coast, frowning. Gu Jing knew that something was going to happen just by looking at him. She leaned forward, with her left foot slightly backward, and unconsciously made an attacking posture.And the giant dog, which was docile and beautiful just now, with its front legs prostrated on the ground and its hind legs arched, with its sharp white teeth exposed, was staring at the west vigilantly.

"There is a situation!" Lin Boning and Xiangqi said almost at the same time.

"It may be a sea monster or a mutated animal that landed!" But how did he break through the monitoring and enter so close to the base? !Wei Yuan frowned and quickly analyzed, "We can't ask them to approach the base. There are many people outside repairing the outer wall today!" This place is only one kilometer away from the base. He once saw the speed of a monster coming out of the sea. Someone has to stand in the way to buy time!

He took out the walkie-talkie on his waist and quickly reported to the base and asked for support.Then he said to the five people very quickly: "You drive away! Immediately!" After finishing speaking, the eight-member team quickly went to the vantage point to prepare for the battle. There were snipers and heavy machine guns... What is surprising is that The chess soldier took a long machete-like sharp knife and stood slightly behind, with the wolf's teeth in front of him.

Lin Boning shook his head, he had already "seen" something coming quickly, and there would definitely be casualties with just such a few people. "We stayed to help," he said.

Archibald grinned and laughed, "These people are pleasing to the eye! Help them fight!"

Luo Qiao and Li Kai nodded, got into the car, and drove the car to the side of the rocks. The two of them used the car as a barrier. Li Kai put the ZB light machine gun on his back on the roof of the car and stepped on the rocks. Shangzheng is good at shooting, and Luo Qiao is also standing on the rock. In front of him is the domestic 88-style sniper rifle he found in the weapon in the car. He tries to clear his mind. The control has been greatly enhanced, especially with Gu Jing and Lin Boning sharing some experience.

The monster appeared very quickly, and just as he was ready, a monster appeared in the field of vision-it was a zombie octopus the size of a van!The black-brown arms and feet were full of pustules, and a big opening was split on the top of the head, exposing the gray-white brain. What was even more disgusting was that a face protruded from the bottom of the monster's head where the eyes should be!A face of human outline!The twist is there so creepy it's too scary to look straight at.

Li Kai swallowed carefully, even though he was used to seeing zombies, this octopus monster definitely challenged the limit of human endurance.

The slippery arms and legs of the octopus monster were pounding so fast that everyone could clearly see the black mucus dripping from the arms and legs corroding the grass on the ground, and a strong rancid smell penetrated into people's nostrils.But these are small problems in terms of their number-there are eleven of these monsters in total!

The military team froze at the same time. I'm afraid that there will be no turning back today.There was no trace of fear on Wei Yuan's calm and composed face. Xiao Xiangqi patted the golden-haired wolf teeth in front of him, and clenched the knife in his hand. Even if he died, he would drag these monsters along with him!
