"Distress signal?" Yue Zhanfei quickly clicked on the red exclamation point, and a few seconds of audio immediately popped up on the screen.
"That's the No. 5 Investigation Team at Liming Base. Their investigation vehicle was damaged in a sandstorm. Part of it was damaged beyond repair and they cannot return to the base. If there is a team that received that distress audio, please ask us to save them!"
The man's voice stopped suddenly, and the audio ended. There was no other sound in the entire channel, and there was no noise from the environment or plague species.
"It's not far away if they go to rescue them." Yue Zhanfei turned around and said to the people in the carriage. Since the channel is destined to be received by them, they have the responsibility to help their colleagues in trouble.
Wu Qi nodded, and Pi Chunsheng said "hmm".
Yue Zhanfei turned around and drove the investigation vehicle toward the southeast at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour.
The wasteland in the southeast is also a vast sea of yellow sand. The survey vehicle drove along the shortest route guided by the electronic map. There is no yellow sand at the end of the horizon, giving people the illusion that they cannot see the edge of the sand sea.
The electronic map positioning and navigation of the investigation vehicle continuously informed Yue Zhanfei of the distance between the target investigation vehicle and their current location. When the positioning navigation showed that the distance between them was less than two kilometers, Yue Zhanfei and others finally saw the silhouette of a small car standing on the far horizon.
"Gao Yuan, investigation."
Wu Qi patted Gao Yuan on the shoulder.
Gao Yuan responded, took out the electromagnetic sniper rifle, adjusted the scope to 20 times, and carefully observed the little Yongxuan in the distance. In the scope, Gao Yuan clearly saw the true face of the little car silhouette.
Is that a heavy-duty battlefield vehicle with the number "5" painted on the side? The four wheels of the vehicle were parked motionless, and the car body still had many scars in the shape of the claws of the plague species; the surroundings of the heavy-duty battlefield vehicle were empty and empty. Not besieged and attacked by plague species,
"Whether the target should be safe or not can't be seen..."
As soon as Gao Yuang said that, his words suddenly stopped.
Wu Qi noticed Gao Yuan's pause and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What's that... Boss, there are no small or medium-sized plague species around the target investigation vehicle, but there is an oversized desert lizard lying on the sand one or two hundred meters away from them!" Gao Yuan did not lower his voice. The voice, what he said could be heard by everyone in the car.
"Show him." Wu Qi said calmly.
Gao Yuan handed the 20x scope to Wu Qi's lap. Wu Qi picked up the scope and looked in the direction Gao Yuan pointed. Through the light yellow sand and dust, he saw a huge monster with an extremely large appearance!
That behemoth looked like a super-enlarged desert lizard, with no scales on its back and scales on its limbs, and an extremely long, snake-like curved tail trailing from the end of its torso. Desert lizard is not the name of that kind of animal in the civilized era. Normal sand lizard is very small, and its body length is basically no more than 14 centimeters. However, it is an extremely huge sand lizard. Wu Qi can tell at a glance that its body is extremely long. The error is more than 100 meters, because the vertical height of its trunk is twice that of the survey car!
The head of the "Sand Lizard" has a very long, diagonally conical horn. The horn is like a unicorn's horn, and it is so old that it looks like fossils accumulated for tens of thousands of years.
When Wu Qi saw the horn, he tried to communicate the "revelation of the wilderness gods" with a try. The message of the "sand lizard" immediately came from the other end of the road. Wu Qi did not expect that such a behemoth actually existed. ".
"What about Desert Dragon Lizards? Desert Dragon Lizards are rare in that world and will appear in the vast desert. The characteristic of their race is that each individual will have a powerful "super-large" ability, and their heads will grow. One is the huge dragon horn."
"What's so special about those huge dragon horns? Are they mutated organs?" Yue Zhanfei asked after listening to Wu Qi's explanation.
Wu Qi confirmed Yue Zhanfei's guess: "No, every dragon horn on the head of the desert dragon lizard has a mutated organ, but the essence of the dragon horn can be a hotbed for virus proliferation and evolution. As for what kind of mutations will be born, Different desert dragon lizards are different."
Wu Qi himself was also guessing what kind of strangeness the withered fossil-like dragon horns on the top of the desert dragon lizard's head contained. I want to know if the dragon horns are the key to why the desert dragon lizard is named after the word "dragon", rather than "super-large".
But no matter how you put it, the Desert Dragon Lizard in front of you is too big, and ordinary "super-large" abilities will not evolve to this extent. A creature of huge size must require a large amount of food to supplement the energy consumed by exercise. As an omnivore, the Desert Dragon Lizard eats sand scorpions, camels, ostriches, and even any creature that intrudes near it.
Otherwise, the desert dragon lizard will swallow up the investigation vehicle in one go, including the person and the iron.
"Wait a minute, didn't the distress signal say that their investigation vehicle was destroyed in a sandstorm, and begged them to go rescue them? Why didn't they mention the Desert Dragon Lizard near their vehicle!" Xiao Kui Suddenly I realized something very interesting and raised it loudly.
"It's indeed a bit strange." Wu Qi said calmly.
"But they were afraid that if they mentioned the Desert Dragon Lizard, no one would dare to take the risk to rescue them, but he felt that their investigation vehicle must have really broken down, otherwise they would not have escaped," Pi Chunsheng said. His expression did not show the surprise that he had been deceived. Instead, he was trying to think from the wrong side's perspective.
"They can't help but die," Yue Zhanfei made a clear choice. At the same time, he remained cautious and tried to make a communication request to the wrong party.
The long communication waiting sound lasted for a long time, and then it was connected. The image of a young man with red hair and red eyes flashed on the screen. He clutched his chest and said nervously: "Thank God, someone finally came to save them! Are we?"
"Noah Base Investigation Team No. 7, leader Yue Zhanfei, please report my name and identity, as well as the situation of being trapped." Yue Zhanfei said using a set of impartial communication procedures.
"He is the deputy captain of Investigation Team No. 5, Molly Morris. Their captain died in the line of duty while on an investigation mission. Now he is the temporary leader..."
The man's voice reached the carriage. When Wu Qi, Guo Bobo, Gao Yuan, and Chris heard the name, their expressions suddenly changed.
Wu Qi stood up suddenly, walked to Yue Zhanfei's side in a few steps, and looked at the electronic screen showing a portrait.
With red hair, red eyes, and a familiar but hateful face, Wu Qi heard and saw correctly. The soldier from Investigation Team No. 5 who sent out the distress call had repeatedly tricked their captain Mo Li during the mine protection mission!
