I take skeletons to the apocalypse
Chapter 39
Gu Ming didn't expect that the person he complained about was standing behind him, his expression froze on the spot.
On the contrary, Xia Xi raised her head calmly, and exchanged a glance with Jing Lan through the mask: "It's quite interesting. Don't you think so?"
Jing Lan wanted to explode, but felt powerless again.This black-robed man is different from everyone else Jing Lan met. He doesn't respect him, he isn't afraid of him, he doesn't particularly alienate him, but he doesn't get close to him either.It's like the most common attitude between two people who are not familiar with each other before the end of the world.But it was this most common attitude that made Jing Lan feel at a loss.
He had long forgotten how to get along with others like a normal person.
Xia Xi ignored him, straightened her clothes, and got up to watch the interrogation.
Gu Ming also followed Xia Xi immediately, turning his head from time to time to look at Jing Lan who was in a daze, and muttering in his mouth: "Order tofu in brine, one thing will drop one thing!"
Chaomo took a pony from the off-road vehicle and was sitting in front of the chosen ones. In a way that was almost homely, he casually asked the chosen ones some things that sounded insignificant. intelligence.
From these populations, Chao Mo learned that the Chosen One had a total of ten district teams, and each captain was regarded as a high-ranking member of the Chosen One, with the leader being the boss, who lined up in order.Therefore, the captain of the fifth district team is called the fifth brother, and is also called the fifth brother by the team members.
Chao Mo also chatted with these people about the origin of the Chosen One, even though he had already investigated it clearly in his previous life:
The Chosen Organization was first established in a prison.The doomsday begins, and the order of the prison is chaotic. Several escaped prisoners with awakened abilities killed the prison guards and released the prisoners who were willing to obey them. This team is the earliest embryonic form of the Chosen Ones.
After leaving the prison, the team recruited some outsiders to join, and also eliminated many ordinary people with no strength.In the end, it was discovered that all the survivors were supernatural beings.
Therefore, they believe that the end of the world is the key to the promotion of supernatural powers, and those who have not awakened supernatural powers will eventually be eliminated by the world.They called this process the Chosen One, called themselves the Chosen Ones, and formed their own organization.
The other side of the information cooperated with Chaomo, but when Chaomo asked these people about the mission goals and completion status of these people who came to the villa, the people of the Chosen One suddenly became alert and refused to say anything. Reveal half a word.
The fifth child is not a reborn person, nor does he know Chaomo and Jinglan.Although he has been reduced to a prisoner, he still has a naive expression of "If you dare to provoke the chosen one, you people will be in trouble soon".He even felt that Chaomo and his party dared to touch him only because they didn't know how powerful the Chosen One was.
So Chaomo chatted with him, and he naturally introduced the origin of the power of the Chosen One to everyone, and told them how powerful the Chosen One was, but he didn't expect that these people still didn't have awe.
After being forced to ask a few words, Lao Wu became a little impatient, and threatened Chaomo in a bad tone: "I advise you to let us go immediately, otherwise, when our eldest sister finds out, you will not be able to live or die." , I regret being born in this world. I'm not joking with you. "
Hearing this threat, Chao Mo laughed: "Why, is Su Zixun planning to arrest us and sell us to the research institute? Think about it, right? With our current level of abilities, if we are sent to the research institute, we will definitely sell well. For the price, maybe I can exchange for some more advanced weapons and equipment for you, right?"
The old fifth's originally haughty face froze in place: "How do you know..."
"How do you know that your boss is Su Zixun? How do you know that you are colluding with the Institute behind your back?" Chao Mo put his elbows on the knees that knocked Erlang's legs, and leaned forward slightly: "I know, much more than this."
"Your purpose this time is to destroy the shelter, and take the place of the shelter and the materials inside it for yourself. You are not as many as the shelter, but you have the traps and rage potions given by the research, and you I plan to use the power of mutated animals to destroy the shelter. The first wave is the mutant centipede, which is used to kill ordinary people in the shelter. The second time I use the mutant black cat, I guess it may be more capable of fighting against a single target Hunter. Who do you plan to use next? The mutant bee with strong reproductive ability?"
"Who are you guys?" After hearing what Chao Mo said, Lao Wu's face turned completely pale.
Chao Mo adjusted his glasses: "It doesn't matter who we are, the important thing is that if I tell Su Zixun, you told me these things, what do you think she will do to you?"
The fifth child twitched his face and swallowed a big mouthful of saliva: "Eldest sister won't believe you."
Chao Mo raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a firm tone, "She will, you know very well in your heart. She is a suspicious and cold-blooded person, isn't she?"
"Who are you guys? What do you want?" The fifth child was a little emotionally broken.
Seeing that the target took the bait, Chaomo calmly offered the conditions: "It's very simple, you answer my question honestly, and I will not send you back to the Chosen Organization. You are not peripheral, and you have no monitoring and positioning devices on your body. You just need to leave this place." In this chaotic doomsday, Su Zixun can't find you."
Lao Wu belatedly discovered the horror of the man in front of him with a gentle smile all the time: don't look at his kind words, and he doesn't do anything.But he seems to know everything and can see through everything. He calmly pinches other people's weaknesses and waits leisurely for him to compromise, just like a fisherman holding a fishing rod and watching the fish slowly struggle on the hook until they lose their strength.
The fifth child closed his eyes and leaned against the wall as if he lost his strength: "But don't you know our mission goals? What else do you want to ask?"
Chaomo asked people to bring drinking water to these people to moisten their throats, and gently coaxed them: "Don't be nervous, I just checked a few details with you. Next, I will ask you and your team members separately. I hope you will not lie , If I find any inconsistencies in what you said, then unfortunately, I can only send all of you back to the Chosen Organization."
Lao Wu had to cooperate with Chaomo and honestly tell the information he wanted.
From his mouth, everyone learned that the organization base of the Chosen Ones is now built in the villa area by the Lianzi Lake in Quanshi Township, and there are only 180 official members, divided into ten district teams, each of which is a second-level or higher ability user .There is a huge difference in strength and status between the district teams. In the first district team, that is, in the district team led by Su Zixun himself, the status of a member is higher than that of the captains of the several district teams behind them.
In addition, the chosen ones also controlled the various traffic arteries, intercepting passing pedestrians and convoys, and intercepting their supplies.When you meet obedient supernatural beings and ordinary people, you will bring them back. The former will be implanted with chips as peripheral members, and the latter will be used as slaves.Disobedient supernatural beings were sold to research institutes, and ordinary people would kill them directly.
"In your organization, who is the person in charge of contacting the research institute?" Chao Mo asked.
"It's the second brother."
"what is it call?"
"Liu Peng."
"Cough." Xia Xi, who was listening to the excitement, was a little surprised to hear this familiar name at first.
The eyes hidden in the mask narrowed dangerously, Xia Xi thought, so this person is still alive, so it's good to be alive, and he hasn't avenged this person for his revenge.
Other than him, Liu Peng was not surprised by this name.
Gu Ming even squeezed his fists, and said in a familiar tone: "I guessed it was him. In his previous life, before something happened to the Chosen Organization, he was the most active in currying favor with the research institute. In this life, he is doing his old job again. gone."
Xiang Lei also nodded: "This person should know a lot about the current situation of the institute."
Jing Lan asked directly, "Liu Peng will deal with it for me."
Chao Mo shook his head: "That's not okay, if I'm not wrong, you want to avenge your boyfriend?"
Jing Lan pursed her lips: "I should have killed him as early as in Chucheng."
Chaomo knew about this passage. At that time, Liu Peng went to Chucheng to kill Jing Lan, but unexpectedly discovered that Jing Lan was also a reborn person, and immediately left his younger brother and ran away.Jing Lan originally wanted to catch up, but she let him go because she thought it would be unsafe to leave her uncle alone.
Afterwards, Jing Lan has been brooding about this all the time, and one of the goals of coming to the villa this time is Liu Peng.
"I'm afraid that you can't hold back and kill people directly. At that time, our intelligence line will be cut off?" Chao Mo comforted Jing Lan: "Well, this matter will be planned after we arrive, you Just don't go, wait until I finish asking the questions here, and then hand over the person to you, okay?"
Jing Lan lowered her eyes: "I won't kill him."
Xia Xi's heart moved. He was too familiar with Jing Lan's appearance. In the past, every time he encountered troublesome things that he didn't want to agree to, but refused, he would lower his eyes and pretend to agree.
Saying not to kill is just not to kill, but it does not mean not to go.
Just like before, his father asked him to work in his own company, and he said he would consider it, so he turned around and opened a cake shop.I asked him to take good care of his body. He said he would pay attention, but he worked secretly to make money and exhausted himself to the hospital every other month.His stepmother participated in the blind date called a birthday dinner, and he said he would give a gift, but in the end, the birthday gift was mailed, but he took himself to the island for a trip.
This time, it is estimated that the other party is planning to attack Liu Peng privately.But Xia Xi didn't intend to expose Jing Lan, he wanted to touch it privately and seek revenge from Liu Peng.
Chaomo didn't know Jinglan's routines, so he was relieved after hearing his promise, and continued to interrogate the fifth child: "How many traps did you bring in total, are there any other members of the Chosen One in Lanshu?"
"In addition to us, there are two members in the city who sneaked into the refuge yesterday, and two guarding the warehouse outside the city. There are also seven peripheral members, but they are not under our control. The second team has special personnel to monitor the peripheral members. The trap has brought centipedes, the first one has been sent to the shelter, the second one is here, and there is a small one, which is in the outer hand. The remaining two are in the warehouse outside the city."
"What does the warehouse outside the city do?"
"It is mainly used to store the obtained materials and hold prisoners."
"How many prisoners are there now?"
"A total of a hundred or so. A large convoy came from the west five days ago. Now everyone is locked inside."
"Take us to see."
Xia Xi's heart moved, couldn't it be the place he escaped from?
In fact, it was the warehouse he escaped from.
This was originally Liu Peng's stronghold.After Liu Peng returned to the Chosen Organization, it naturally became the place of the Chosen One.This place is so far hidden, and it relies on several traffic arteries near Lanshu, it is naturally a good place to store supplies and hold prisoners.
Under the guidance of the fifth brother and a team, everyone came to the outside of the warehouse. This was the first time that Xia Xi looked at this place from the outside when the light was clear.
The ivy entangled above the warehouse that day has withered, but the yellowed branches are still entangled on the wall.The surrounding plants have been cleaned up, revealing a not-so-flat dirt road,
There are two guards here who are also members of the fifth district team. When they saw a group of people coming, they thought it was Brother Wu who brought new prisoners, but they turned around and became prisoners themselves.
Chao Mo took a bunch of keys from them, and opened the locked warehouse door. The inside of the warehouse was similar to what Xia Xi remembered, but there was an extra row of iron cages in the big room in the middle.
As soon as he entered, Xia Xi smelled an indescribable stench. He saw here that people were locked up like animals, and they couldn't come out even if they ate or drank.Some of them still had injuries, and the wounds were decomposed and could not be treated. They could only lie weakly in the cage, screaming for pain.
Xia Xi thought of the slave market he saw in the Wuer continent in the past, and it seemed to be similar to this.No one cared about their feelings, nor did they care about their life and death. Anyway, they were not valuable goods, and they would be thrown away when they died.In the eyes of those slave traders, slaves are only living goods and cannot be counted as the same kind.
The emperor has always opposed this, so the deserted country does not allow the sale of slaves.Ironically, when the Church of Light destroyed the barren country, all the royal families and nobles in the barren country were put into cages and became slaves who could be bought and sold at will.
Xia Xi wanted to save people, but he went too late. Many people died of freezing, starvation, illness, exhaustion, or even beating to death before he came to save them.There are also some who couldn't bear it and ended their lives by themselves.
The members of the light-chasing team looked at the scene in front of them. Although some looked unbearable, they all showed restraint.The cruel scenes they have seen in the last days are far more tragic than here, and they have long expected the virtues of the chosen ones.
"The people here are all people without supernatural powers. When they leave, those who are still alive will be responsible for cleaning up the warehouse." No need to ask Chao Mo, Lao Wu has already learned to introduce the situation of the warehouse.
"This convoy is relatively large, and there are a lot of supernatural beings in it, and they are all locked in the next room."
Chao Mo nodded, and ordered someone to open the door of the next room. There were 23 people locked in a row of cages. The environment was relatively clean, obviously cleaned every day.The people here are all wearing collars that suppress abilities, and their hands and feet are also bound, but their injuries have been bandaged and treated.
"These are the superhumans in their convoy. Generally, after we catch people, we will shut them down for a period of time like this, which can be regarded as a blow to the horse. After that, these people will be more obedient. After a little persuasion, they will basically compromise after being scared. I’m not afraid that they will regret it in the future, anyway, they will be implanted with chips immediately when they are sent to the base. As long as they don’t want to die, they won’t betray. It doesn’t matter if they betray, anyway, as the periphery, they can’t get in touch with the core of the base.”
Zhao Mo nodded and entered the room.Look at the supernatural beings who have been imprisoned for five days.
The people here are dressed in rags and their faces are sallow. It is obvious that they have suffered a lot these days, and their expressions are a little dull and numb.After seeing Brother Wu coming in, he didn't dare to say anything, he just looked at everyone who came in with vigilance and fear.
Suddenly, in the iron cage in the corner, a young man slammed into the door of the cage and shouted loudly: "Jing Lan! Jing Lan! It's me! Your old classmate! Quickly save me! Let me out!"
Xia Xi looked at him, the man in front of him was dirty and smelly, with greasy strands sticking to his scalp, but his facial features were vaguely familiar.
Xia Xi carefully identified it for a few seconds, and recognized this person as Yu Can, Jing Lan's college classmate.When Yu Can was in college, she was considered to be a girl, with delicate features and clean and refreshing attire, which was very attractive to girls in college.
He often plays with Jing Lan on the court.Because one is school grass and the other is tie grass, they are often put together for comparison.
Before Jing Lan graduated, Xia Xi had met Yu Can a few times, and even had dinner with him. At that time, he thought he was a very hearty boy.Later, when he graduated, Yu Can heard that Jing Lan's father was the chairman of Yuntian Technology Company, so he approached Jing Lan and asked him to introduce him to a job.
But at that time, Jing Lan was trying to find a way to refuse his father's request to let him work in the company, and the relationship was very tense, so he didn't agree to Yu Can.Later, the two gradually cut off contact.
At this time, Yu Can had lost the vigor and vigor of the past. He squeezed his face against the door of the cage in embarrassment, and was even twisted by the railings. His eyes were struggling to look in Jing Lan's direction, and his hands were desperately reaching out of the cage and waving: "Help me, I'm Yu Can! Yu Can, your old classmate!"
When everyone heard the voice, they looked at Jinglan one after another.Xia Xi also turned his head to look.
At some point, Jing Lan leaned quietly against the wall alone, hidden in the shadow of the corner.He folded his hands in front of his chest, his expression was more serious than usual, when he heard Yu Can's shout, he turned his eyes slightly, and glanced at the other's excited face.
"I remember you." Jing Lan said softly.
Xia Xi had never heard Jing Lan speak like this, even after the end of the world.
He's just aloof, occasionally grumpy and impatient.
But Xia Xi has never heard him put full resentment into four words like now, and then speak them out in the softest tone with extreme restraint, as if a little heavier, the full resentment will come from between the lines Rushing out, violently tearing the person in front of him to shreds.
It's a pity that Yu Can obviously didn't hear it. He only knew that Jing Lan in college was a very soft-hearted and kind person. No matter what you asked him for, as long as you said yourself pitifully and in a nice tone, he would always help of.
Although he didn't understand the current situation, Yu Can could tell that the Fifth Brother who controlled them was afraid of Jing Lan and his companions, as long as Jing Lan nodded, he would be saved!
On the contrary, Xia Xi raised her head calmly, and exchanged a glance with Jing Lan through the mask: "It's quite interesting. Don't you think so?"
Jing Lan wanted to explode, but felt powerless again.This black-robed man is different from everyone else Jing Lan met. He doesn't respect him, he isn't afraid of him, he doesn't particularly alienate him, but he doesn't get close to him either.It's like the most common attitude between two people who are not familiar with each other before the end of the world.But it was this most common attitude that made Jing Lan feel at a loss.
He had long forgotten how to get along with others like a normal person.
Xia Xi ignored him, straightened her clothes, and got up to watch the interrogation.
Gu Ming also followed Xia Xi immediately, turning his head from time to time to look at Jing Lan who was in a daze, and muttering in his mouth: "Order tofu in brine, one thing will drop one thing!"
Chaomo took a pony from the off-road vehicle and was sitting in front of the chosen ones. In a way that was almost homely, he casually asked the chosen ones some things that sounded insignificant. intelligence.

Zhao Mo nodded and entered the room.Look at the supernatural beings who have been imprisoned for five days.
The people here are dressed in rags and their faces are sallow. It is obvious that they have suffered a lot these days, and their expressions are a little dull and numb.After seeing Brother Wu coming in, he didn't dare to say anything, he just looked at everyone who came in with vigilance and fear.
Suddenly, in the iron cage in the corner, a young man slammed into the door of the cage and shouted loudly: "Jing Lan! Jing Lan! It's me! Your old classmate! Quickly save me! Let me out!"
Xia Xi looked at him, the man in front of him was dirty and smelly, with greasy strands sticking to his scalp, but his facial features were vaguely familiar.
Xia Xi carefully identified it for a few seconds, and recognized this person as Yu Can, Jing Lan's college classmate.When Yu Can was in college, she was considered to be a girl, with delicate features and clean and refreshing attire, which was very attractive to girls in college.
He often plays with Jing Lan on the court.Because one is school grass and the other is tie grass, they are often put together for comparison.
Before Jing Lan graduated, Xia Xi had met Yu Can a few times, and even had dinner with him. At that time, he thought he was a very hearty boy.Later, when he graduated, Yu Can heard that Jing Lan's father was the chairman of Yuntian Technology Company, so he approached Jing Lan and asked him to introduce him to a job.
But at that time, Jing Lan was trying to find a way to refuse his father's request to let him work in the company, and the relationship was very tense, so he didn't agree to Yu Can.Later, the two gradually cut off contact.
At this time, Yu Can had lost the vigor and vigor of the past. He squeezed his face against the door of the cage in embarrassment, and was even twisted by the railings. His eyes were struggling to look in Jing Lan's direction, and his hands were desperately reaching out of the cage and waving: "Help me, I'm Yu Can! Yu Can, your old classmate!"
When everyone heard the voice, they looked at Jinglan one after another.Xia Xi also turned his head to look.
At some point, Jing Lan leaned quietly against the wall alone, hidden in the shadow of the corner.He folded his hands in front of his chest, his expression was more serious than usual, when he heard Yu Can's shout, he turned his eyes slightly, and glanced at the other's excited face.
"I remember you." Jing Lan said softly.
Xia Xi had never heard Jing Lan speak like this, even after the end of the world.
He's just aloof, occasionally grumpy and impatient.
But Xia Xi has never heard him put full resentment into four words like now, and then speak them out in the softest tone with extreme restraint, as if a little heavier, the full resentment will come from between the lines Rushing out, violently tearing the person in front of him to shreds.
It's a pity that Yu Can obviously didn't hear it. He only knew that Jing Lan in college was a very soft-hearted and kind person. No matter what you asked him for, as long as you said yourself pitifully and in a nice tone, he would always help of.
Although he didn't understand the current situation, Yu Can could tell that the Fifth Brother who controlled them was afraid of Jing Lan and his companions, as long as Jing Lan nodded, he would be saved!
