early morning.
Chen Feng led the secret team towards the scene of the accident.
Because the matter was suspicious, Chen Feng did not choose to send a large force to investigate, but chose to use a small team to search for the missing team members.
A group of six people.
The leader of several dark groups was none other than Lu Wei, who had obtained the power of the devil.
Chen Feng is good at using all resources.
Lu Wei is quite powerful now. Due to the devil's ability, ordinary silver-level masters are no match for him at all. So as soon as he came back, he was appointed as the leader of the dark group, specializing in investigating dangerous situations.
It can be said that Lu Wei has now reached success overnight.
As a result, his sister did not have to work hard. Since her brother was a favorite of Chen Feng, her status naturally rose as well.
At this time, several members of the dark group, wearing black tights, followed Chen Feng and rushed forward like a few sharp blades.
After more than two hours of long journey, everyone arrived near the accident site.
This place is close to the west of Qiaoxi. Unlike the east of Qiaoxi where most of the survivors live, Qiaoxi was hit by an earthquake which caused great damage to the houses here. As a result, it has become a wild area. In the past, few people would come here to settle down.
With the loss of humans, the presence of other species has greatly increased. Dimensional creatures, zombies, and insects gather here, and the entire Qiaoxi has become a paradise for monsters.
Chen Feng is now relying on his skills and courage. If it were someone else, he would have died several times.
The monsters were not completely brainless. Those with a little intelligence hid aside when they sensed the momentum of Chen Feng and others, and did not dare to attack at will.
There are also some brainless creatures that rashly try to intercept, but there is only one outcome, and that is to become a corpse.
Explore all the way.
More than two dozen monsters died at the hands of the crowd. At this time, several people were filled with strong evil spirit, and wherever they went, they would cause a commotion.
at this time.
Near the west edge of the bridge, Chen Feng's agile figure was moving forward at high speed. Even the dust and dirt could not conceal his majesty. He had walked a long way, and the journey time had exceeded three hours. Even he had some sweat marks on his forehead, and was obviously a little tired.
After walking a few hundred meters, Chen Feng suddenly raised his arm and signaled everyone to stop.
Chen Feng's expression was serious, and he whispered, "Listen, there is no movement around, and it seems that there is no living thing here!"
Several people looked at each other, and a professional with enhanced reconnaissance skills held his breath and listened carefully to the changes around him.
After a moment, the soldier said with a gloomy face: "Your Excellency is right, this area is terribly quiet, there is no sign of life at all!"
Chen Feng's expression was serious, and he whispered, "Bring me the map."
Open a map.
The area nearby was clearly circled in red. Obviously, this was also the location that the missing people were responsible for exploring.
This place is almost reaching the depths of the west side of the bridge. In the past, there were few signs of human activities. The few people looked solemn and walked forward with cautious steps.
Sneaking carefully.
A smell of blood.
By pushing aside a piece of dead wood, the corpses of some wild animals were revealed. They looked like they had been chopped off by saws, and the cuts on their bodies were all irregular in shape.
The detective professional sniffed his nose and pointed in a direction: "Over there!"
Several people hurried forward and passed through a factory. Everything they saw made their faces turn pale, because they saw a lot of corpses, including wild animals and zombies, but the limbs were all incomplete. Rather than corpses, it looked more like a garbage dump, and these remains were dumped here at random.
It was the first time for several members of the Dark Team to see such a scene and they didn't know what to do for a moment.
Lu Wei squatted down, picked up a small piece of something that looked like a shell, looked at it, and then said in a serious tone: "It's a bug!"
There are many such fragments around, but there are no insect corpses. It is obvious that the mastermind behind these killings is the Zerg.
"check!"
"There must be a bug nearby!"
“Damn it!”
"These guys are hiding here!"
Chen Feng frowned, looking somewhat angry. At this point, the fate of the three missing persons could probably be determined. They were indeed attacked by insects.
The professional who had conducted reconnaissance previously stepped forward. His abilities were somewhat special. He did not have any attack power, but he could sense signs of life activities. In the past, he was also considered a small leader in the search team.
It was precisely because of his special abilities that he was specially recruited into the dark group.
At this time, he closed his eyes, and all the pores on his body opened, sensing the vitality nearby. Time passed by minute by minute. After an unknown amount of time, the professional was stunned for a moment, and then his face suddenly turned pale, as if it was painted with paint, and there was really no blood at all.
"Let's go... Let's go quickly..."
The professional's legs seemed to be going limp and he almost fell to the ground. Even though Chen Feng was standing next to him, he still made this decision without question, then stumbled and ran back the way he came.
A thought emerged in Chen Feng's eyes. He looked at the other party's performance, then looked down at his feet. Perhaps he made an association, his hair stood on end, and he followed the soldier and ran away.
The rest of the people were confused, but since Chen Feng had set an example, they couldn't say anything and returned the same way.
In this way, several people ran to the critical point on the east side of the bridge at the fastest speed. The reconnaissance soldier then breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground.
He first glanced behind him with lingering fear, then looked at Chen Feng and stuttered, "Sir... the bugs... are right under our feet... so densely packed... there are... thousands of them..."
… … … … …
Qiaodong District.
Xu Hongzhuang is welcoming population assistance from the Economic and Technological Development Zone.
After being in power for a period of time, Xu Hongzhuang's aura has changed somewhat. If she was just a pure warrior before, now she is a ruler who holds the power of life and death.
She originally had the spirit of women being as good as men, and at this moment, this spirit was even stronger. Every move she made was like a bold and drastic move, giving people a feeling of being resolute and swift.
A warrior who looked quite shrewd walked up to the other side and said, "Colonel, this is the aid from my master this time. It contains 1,000 kilograms of insect meat, 3 tons of food, and 500 slaves. Please check it."
"Yes." Xu Hongzhuang nodded slightly and said with satisfaction: "Take me to say hello to your master. No one will forget his assistance to Qiaodong."
The lips and teeth are interdependent.
Shallow truth.
Compared with the Economic and Technological Development Zone, Qiaodong District was the main target of the insect tide. In order to help the other side build defenses, Chen Feng not only provided food, but also sent 500 slaves.
"Is this the slave your master captured?"
Xu Hongzhuang looked at the densely packed heads in front of her. These slaves were generally about two meters tall. Most of them were middle-aged and muscular. They were obviously a group of coolies who could do stronger and more tiring work.
At the front of the group of people was a dwarf, less than 1.2 meters tall, with a red nose, green eyes, weed-like hair, and even holding a dead branch in his hand. No matter how you looked at him, he looked like a beggar.
Goblin warlock.
That’s right!
In order to aid Qiaodong District, Chen Feng even sent goblin warlocks over. Don't judge a goblin by his appearance. Although he looks a little ugly, his real abilities are quite good. He is responsible for 70% of the battle fortresses of all sizes in the Economic Development Zone.
At this time, the goblin warlock held his head high and stood arrogantly in front of the natives, not even paying attention to Xu Hongzhuang.
Such is the nature of goblins.
Timid, humble, but extremely cunning.
This creature has already mastered the art of using the power of others to bully others. For warlocks, it has already found the thickest thigh, so it will naturally not be too attentive when treating others.
The clever soldier next to him quickly came over to explain, "Colonel Xu, this friend has become an official resident of the Economic Development Zone. He has great accomplishments in construction, but his temperament is a bit strange. Please forgive him."
Official resident
Xu Hongzhuang showed a hint of interest on her face. She glanced at the other person. She didn't mind the other person's identity. As long as it could help Qiaodong, she would naturally be polite to him.
"All arrangements have been made."
Xu Hongzhuang glanced at the natives in front of her, and then instructed her subordinates beside her: "Prepare some simple houses for them, familiarize them with their daily work, and start working early tomorrow morning."
The subordinate nodded and led the natives towards the city.
Trade exchanges.
Compared with the previous situation when Hong Jiuling and Feng Zhiyong were in power, after Xu Hongzhuang came to power, the exchanges between Qiaodong and the Economic Development Zone had already exceeded people's expectations.
However, compared with their previous suspicions, some conservatives finally began to waver after receiving a large amount of material aid.
This is the charm of money.
Food, weapons, and labor.
It can be said that in just one month, thanks to the assistance of the Economic Development Zone, changes have taken place in all aspects of Qiaodong. Compared with those politicians who are worried about Chen Feng's intentions, the survivors are a group of people who are easily satisfied. As long as they have food to fill their stomachs, it is the greatest happiness for these people at the bottom of society.
For them, there is no time to care who holds power.
As long as life can be better, they will agree with it even if it is a demon. In the face of disaster, this is a very realistic choice.
Xu Hongzhuang was not in the mood as she had wasted too much time here.
Sitting in this position, she has endless work to do every day. What should she do next? Yes, she should organize the soldiers and place the newly made magic crystal cannons on the city wall. Then, she needs to inspect the arsenal to see the recent weapons production.
Thinking of this, Xu Hongzhuang took a step and prepared to walk towards her destination.
But in the distance, there was a sudden sound of urgent panting, and then a soldier ran to Xu Hongzhuang in a panic, and took out a letter from his arms: "Colonel, urgent letter from the Economic Development Zone!"
Xu Hongzhuang was stunned for a moment. She reached out, picked up the envelope and opened it.
It was not a long speech. In terms of the number of words, there were only eight words. However, these few words made Xu Hongzhuang feel as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
"Insect nest discovered, requesting support!"
