"Go back? Are you in a hurry?" Ke Ling asked.
"Yeah." Xiao Kui responded.
Xiao Kui mentioned Noah Base, and Ke Ling couldn't help but think of other base establishments' requests to be promoted to Noah Base establishment. That kind of high level of request is beyond her reach.
"So... have they decided to separate?"
Xiao Kui was silent for a while and then said: "Actually, he doesn't want me to follow him to Noah Base. During the current war, the battlefields around Noah Base are much more dangerous than those around other bases. Dawn Base is a good place. Although it is being rebuilt after the disaster, at least the Dragon King of the Desert outside is dead, the desert army has been defeated, and there are only a few defeated soldiers left. Otherwise, among the five bases, the probability of war will be the smallest in the future."
Ke Ling grinned and said, "Oh, what is dangerous or not? You don't separate even if you say no, you ask to protect him, but in the end you change your mind before the day is up?"
Xiao Kui moved his eyes and glanced at Ke Ling's profile. The light was very dark and he couldn't see Ke Ling's expression clearly, but it was enough to know from her tone how she was feeling.
"I can't afford to be wrong. But he didn't mean what he said."
Ke Ling then stood up from the armrest of the sofa, put her legs behind her back, turned around, and looked down at Xiao Kui's face.
"He doesn't need me to put in the effort to protect him. He hasn't learned much in the past 10 years. The only thing he's good at is self-preservation. If he goes to a chaotic battlefield, I can just go ahead and do it. Moreover, There are so many rules that bind people in the five bases that are unkind. He cannot be promoted to the establishment of Noah Base now, and it will be even harder in the future. So that war is not his biggest chance."
Xiao Kui's eyes widened slightly. That was different from what Ke Ling showed in the afternoon. She showed no trace of yearning for Noah's base at dusk from base to base at noon.
"Do I feel that the way he showed an eagerness to return to base in the evening at noon was staged?" Ke Ling seemed to be able to see through Xiao Kui's micro-expression and said at the right time.
Xiao Kui didn't answer. He can completely understand that when people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. If the war between the human base and the Apocalypse Abyss evolves to a heated stage, the worst thing will be that the human base is unable to withstand the legions of endless plague species and Tier 3 overlords. At that time, satellite bases such as Dawn Base and Dusk Base will be abandoned, and all human beings who survive to the east will try their best to defend the original home of Noah Base.
In the short term, Dawn Base seems to be the safest, but in the long term, Noah Base is definitely the most difficult or the first base to break.
"But Ke Ling doesn't know the seriousness of the current war situation. Behind the plague army that surrounds the five bases is the Thirteenth Throne of the Apocalypse Abyss. There should be a group of them in that major secret base, and only a few high-level officials know about it. That's wrong." Xiao Kui thought again.
To Xiao Kui's surprise, all he thought about was Ke Ling's reason.
"His idea is very simple. He wants to act with me. He didn't recognize me before, but now he recognizes me, it's different. He tried his best to win over Noah as quickly as possible. Establishment of the base!”
Immediately, Ke Ling looked at Xiao Kui in Didong with a smile on his face: "Brother, I will help him with his mistakes, right?"
"Huh. I'm sure I won't regret it? More than half of the soldiers were killed or injured in the battle at Dawn Base, so Noah Base must also be..." Xiao Kui sighed and confirmed to Ke Ling for the first time.
"Don't ask for help from mother-in-law and mother-in-law, brother—" Ke Ling lowered his head, his face very close to Xiao Kui's, and said in a rare coquettish way.
Xiao Kui resisted Ke Ling and gave in before.
"Okay, he will help me. Just ask if the war breaks out when I am transferring to Noah Base and before transferring to Dusk Base, then there is no chance."
"Hey, he doesn't think so. They are brothers and sisters."
... ...
The night passed. In the early morning of the next month, Wu Qi, Yue Zhanfei and others all got up early and prepared to set off in a hurry. Xiao Kui went to Yue Zhanfei and said that there were already holes in the high wall of the Dawn Base. If he was attacked by the Plague Legion again, he might not be safe, so he wanted Ke Ling to take a ride to the Noah Base and then transfer to the Dusk Base; It just so happens that Noah's Base is also close to Dusk Base.
Yue Zhanfei agreed without thinking too much. On the contrary, he was very concerned about Xiao Kui, whether he could find an opportunity to bring Ke Ling into the Noah base. After all, during the war, it was certainly best for the family to stay together.
Xiao Kui was right and Yue Zhanfei told everything, but he chose to conceal it.
Although Xiao Kui and Ke Ling kept everyone in the dark about this incident, Xiao Kui did not have bad intentions. He wanted to do it simply relying on the strength of the two brothers and sisters. Just don't bother your teammates.
The sun was shining brightly at the top of the sky, and the hot air was scorching the wasteland all the time.
The armed heavy-duty field vehicle added by Investigation Team 7 to Ke Ling's location was driving in the wilderness. The field vehicle started from the patrol track and gradually deviated from the track, heading in the direction of Noah Base.
Surprisingly, there were almost no plague species along the way, and it was unusually quiet.
Yue Zhanfei was in the driving seat as always. He turned on the "global sight distance", Guo Baibo turned on the "spiritual link", and multiple people shared the "global sight distance" vision at once.
If one person's attention is limited, use the number of people to supplement it. By doing this, Guo Baibo and others could detect the footprints of plague species left on the soil surface without delaying the advance of the field vehicle.
"The soil is very flat. It was sunny yesterday and tomorrow, so the impact of weathered footprints is almost minimal. There haven't been a large number of plague species passing through that area recently." After Pi Chunsheng and Chris alternately scouted for 10 kilometers, Chris said.
"Well, continue to investigate. If there are any signs that the footprints begin to increase, report it. The wasteland outside Noah's base is occupied by tens of thousands of legions of plague peas. When they approach Noah's base, they are approaching the plague seeds. The legion's encirclement is about their lives." Wu Qi said solemnly.
Gao Yuan lay on the roof of the field vehicle. He raised the electromagnetic cannon and looked into the distance with a high-power sight.
Gaoyuan will not let go of every inch of the horizon at the end of the field of vision.
In such a tense and cautious process, Investigation Team No. 7 got closer and closer to Noah's base. At a certain moment, Yongxuan from Noah's base finally appeared in everyone's sight.
The tall wall standing in the desolate land represents the greatest sense of security in the occupied area.
"It's about 2 kilometers." Yue Zhanfei said casually.
Xiao Kui and Ke Ling inadvertently glanced at each other wrongly, and then their eyes separated.
At the back of the carriage, Qiyue curled up with her body and fell asleep with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, a weak electric current jumped through Wu Qi's fingers, and then extended to his spine, causing Wu Qi's expression to change slightly.
A hunter’s intuition never gives a false alarm. Wu Qi's heart seemed to be squeezed by an invisible thigh in an instant.
It does not provide a warning for a specific part of the body, nor does it provide a warning for the whole body. The sense of electric current is very weak, which means that the danger is still far away, but it is approaching!
Wu Qi didn't know why the hunter's intuition would trigger an alarm at that time.
"Boss, he saw the footprints of the plague species! The footprints are inconsistent, appearing and disappearing out of thin air."
Wu Qi's nerves were very tense, and he immediately said: "Share your vision with him."
Wu Qi put his left leg on his temple, and his eyes lit up with a sky-blue halo. He "sees" a high vision.
In that area of soil where I don't know which direction it is, there are strange-shaped footprints of the plague species. The footprints were oval in shape, with four toe prints on one end. Wu Qi connected with the "road" in his mind and immediately knew whether the footprints of that shape were left by a huge herbivore.
Carnivorous beasts and birds would not leave footprints like Dong's, and the Zerg were even worse.
"Can there be a plague species with footprints like the one left in the east, a species that can fly..."
"Boss, there is a string of footprints further away. Wait, footprints like that are arranged in an arc! Extending into the distance!" Gao Yuan's voice became more and more urgent, until he finally shouted out at all.
"A large number of enemies with the ability to evade are lurking nearby, run in the opposite direction!" A flash of lightning flashed through Wu Qi's mind, and the conclusion came out.
Yue Zhanfei's mind froze when he heard this. He controlled the console with all his strength and controlled the battlefield vehicle to turn to the right.
At the same moment, a whole row of soil dust exploded from the ground 500 meters away in the west direction. All the soil dust formed an arc when connected. Each ball of soil dust was 10 meters high and 10 meters in diameter. The moment it exploded, it was astonishingly loud, just like long-awaited mines being collectively triggered!
Everyone's eyes turned to the west. After the 10-meter-high row of soil explosion dust dissipated, what was revealed in the air was a row of giant elephant plague seeds that seemed to be carved out of a mold!
The row of giant elephants has an average shoulder height of 7 meters. Their body is as strong as a hill, and their four legs are as thick as giant pillars. Their rough and cracked yellow-brown skin seems to be covered with armor. There are extremely curved teeth on both sides of their mouths, with the tips of their teeth staggered directly in front of them. Dirty red fangs.
There was a dazzling yellow light in their big eyes, and the pupils could not be seen clearly; they kept blowing heavy breaths from their mouths, as if they were filled with hysterical anger against the high wall in front of them!
Wu Qi's pupils shrank suddenly. Then there is the plague species that it has never seen before, and the revelation of the wilderness gods initiated through the medium of vision, there is no way to get any information from the giant elephants.
"Wu Qi, do I know if that is some kind of plague?" Yue Zhanfei yelled.
"I don't understand, run away!" Wu Qi said quickly. His premonition told him that he would definitely not seek direct contact with those "underground elephants".
However, before the battlefield vehicles could escape, countless fountains of dust rose up from the ground behind a row of underground elephants. Countless heads of plague species of various shapes poked out of the ground, like fifty or a hundred rows of dominoes flipping over in unison, forming a majestic plague species army on the surface in a very short period of time.
Their number is more than thousands, at least ten thousand!
