When they arrived at the base, the people in the team were almost exhausted, especially the supernatural beings. They set off from the base and spent a whole day rushing to City V. There was no rest during this time, and they rushed back soon .
Since Tang Tang entered the range of the base, her ability to run fell to the ground. She looked at Jiang Zhu's handsome face and couldn't hide the fatigue, and supported him distressedly.
"Are you tired?" Jiang Zhu saw her coming down, raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair, and asked.
Tang Tang shook his head, "Not tired."
"Liar, your face is pale." Jiang Zhu moved down the hand rubbing the top of her hair, and stroked Tang Tang's face, with distressed light in her eyes.
"You too, your face is also pale." Tang Tang raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Zhu's face.
This way back, even if Tang Tang's supernatural energy is enough, it also consumes a lot. It would be a lie to say that she was not tired at this time, if she could, she even wanted to sleep directly on the ground, and sleep for a day and a night first.
"Stop all!" Lin Xi took a deep breath, glared at Tang Tang and the two, ran two steps to the front of the team, raised his arms and called the whole team to stop, "Everyone who is injured, stand here, Those who are seriously injured or fainted, come here to help them!"
"These people come with me, and the rest of them rest where they are, and someone will come to lead you into the base soon."
After Lin Xi finished explaining, he brought the group of people who stood up directly into the base, and the rest, including Tang Tang, Jiang Zhu and others, stood quietly outside.
Not long after, the person Lin Xi said came to lead them in came out.
He is a familiar person, Ding Chi.
He glanced at Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu, who were standing alone, and nodded, as a greeting. Turning to everyone, he said, "All come with me."
Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu also followed. After entering the base, Ding Chi stopped, turned around and said to everyone, "It was originally a supernatural person in the base, and now you can go back. Others , including those in Li Zeng's team, continue to follow me."
After Tang Tang heard this, she was about to pull Jiang Zhu away first, but as soon as she turned around, Ding Chi took a quick step and stood in front of her, "You two also stay for a while."
"Huh?" Tang Tang didn't know why, "Why?"
"The vice-captain needs to find you guys for something." Ding Chi explained.
Tang Tang turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhu, gestured with his eyes, and then blessed him in spoken words: Do you know what he wants us to do
Jiang Zhu thought for a while, but he had no impression of this vice-captain, he probably had never seen it before, and shook his head: I don't know.
Ding Chi noticed that the faces of both of them were not very good. It was obvious that they had consumed too much on the journey and needed a rest urgently. He explained, "The vice-captain should just prepare to give you something, and it won't waste time. I promise, if it takes more than five minutes Regardless of whether he agrees or not, I will take you back to rest."
With Ding Chi's always stern face, everything he said had a sense of seriousness.
Tang Tang smiled, "Then don't you have to be scolded?"
"The deputy captain doesn't know how to curse."
Li Zeng's team was arranged not far from Tang Tang's earthen house. When Tang Tang followed them, the early-rising grandmother was standing at the door of the earthen house with a cane, and saw everyone at a glance.
Tang Tang looked at the old grandma, and the feeling in his heart was indescribable.
Subconsciously, I don't really want to get too close to her. Just about to tell Jiang Zhu to stand here and wait for them, not to pass, but Jiang Zhu stopped without her saying anything.
As soon as she looked up, she saw Jiang Zhu looking at the old grandma with a cold look.
The grandmother over there also noticed Tang Tang who stopped suddenly. At this time, Li Zeng stepped forward. The two of them didn't know what to say. They glanced at her at the same time and smiled at Tang Tang.
Tang Tang couldn't laugh.
He looked at their mother and child slightly indifferently.
The old grandma was holding a cane, and seemed to be walking towards her. Tang Tang frowned, but saw that the other party looked at Jiang Zhu beside her, and slowly stopped.
Tang Tang noticed this, and glanced at Jiang Zhu, but saw Jiang Zhu was looking at her, as if she hadn't noticed the old lady opposite.
Tang Tang smiled at him, turned around, and when he met Li Zeng and Li Zeng, he put away his smile and narrowed his eyes.
"Let's go?" Ding Chi arranged things over there, walked over, and led Tang Tang to the other side.
"This time, you have completed two high-level tasks at one time. According to the regulations in the base, you can already move out of the earthen house and live directly in the real house."
On the way to the vice-captain's side, Ding Chi talked to the two of them, "Get some time, you can move today or tomorrow, or you can move later if you want to, just tell me and I'll take you there."
real house
"Is it the low houses on both sides that we saw when we came in from the base?" Tang Tang thought of visiting Feng Ling when he was on his first mission.
Have to say, the difference is a bit big.
Their mud house over there has nothing in it except a shell. Unlike Feng Ling's single house, there are all kinds of furniture, and there is a space in front of the door, which can be freely allocated.
"Well, that's the kind." Ding Chi nodded.
Wow, awesome!
Tang Tang's brows and eyes were full of smiles, but she quickly thought of a question, "How many houses of that kind can we get? There are more people in our team, will we not be able to live?"
"Although you have completed two high-level tasks, you can only be assigned to one building. If you squeeze in one building, it should be able to accommodate about 30 people, and the others may have to stay in the earthen house."
After Ding Chi finished speaking, Tang Tang's mood was obviously depressed.
For two high-level missions, those who are "born to death" can only get one building, and they have to squeeze together to accommodate thirty people. Alas, it seems that we need to do more high-level missions to accommodate everyone in the team. Go to the detached house.
"Is this single building we got vacated by other teams?"
Tang Tang thought again, since there is a reward for the success of the advanced task, does that mean that if it fails, the reward will actually be deducted? Otherwise, there would be so many of these single houses, how could one person get one by completing a few high-level tasks.
"No, most of these houses in the base are empty, and there is no need for others to vacate them." Ding Chi paused, and then continued, "But if they are full in the future, there should be a punishment mechanism gone."
Tang Tang nodded, expressing his understanding.
In other words, there is no shortage of houses in the base now, and you can live in them after the mission success level is raised, and you don't have to worry about any mission failures that will be taken back.
She breathed a sigh of relief, which was a lot more reassuring.
·
When they went to meet the vice-captain, Zhao Ce was having a morning meeting with several bosses. Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu were standing outside the door. Ding Chi knocked on the door and walked in. Soon Zhao Ce walked out in person.
"I heard about you guys, thank you for your hard work." Zhao Ce said in a gentle tone, and took out something he had prepared a long time ago from his pocket, "This is a gift prepared for you in the base."
Gift
Tang Tang looked at it, it was a paper box with simple packaging, the most special thing was that her and Jiang Zhu's names were written on the paper box, other than that, the box was a bit small, about the size of a palm, and could be stuffed into it at any time The pocket kind.
She didn't expect that besides the single building, the base would have specially prepared gifts
Tang Tang was a little curious about what was in the box. She raised her hand and was about to take the box from Zhao Ce.
She suddenly felt that something touched her finger, she paused, thinking that Zhao Ce's hand accidentally touched her, and was about to ignore it, when she realized that it was not counted as just touching her, but she actually touched it slowly.
Tang Tang suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Ce, who was smiling gently on the opposite side.
What's the meaning
Tang Tang was so shocked that he couldn't believe it. He held his breath and wanted to withdraw his hand on the spot, but suddenly found that the hand seemed to be stuck on the box, and he couldn't take it back.
"Vice team..."
"This gift is the heart of the base, and Ms. Tang must keep it carefully." Zhao Ce seemed to have no idea what Tang Tang meant by staring at him, interrupted her, and continued talking to himself.
Tang Tang was annoyed by his attitude, and was about to turn around and tell Jiang Zhu to ask him to help, but suddenly something cold squeezed into her fingers, making her skin hurt.
what
"Miss Tang's hands are delicate, the gift may be a bit heavy, don't break it." Zhao Ce retracted his hand and reminded intimately.
Tang Tang slowly took back the request for help that he was about to say, but the look in Zhao Ce's eyes was still not quite right. It's just that Zhao Ce kept looking at her and smiling, and there was nothing wrong.
"This is the newcomer introduced by Boss Mo Fei not long ago?"
At this time, a male voice came from the door behind Zhao Ce, and the door was pushed open from the inside. Zhao Ce stepped aside, and at the same time, deliberately glanced at the gift that Tang Tang was holding. .
Tang Tang frowned, and the man behind the door had already walked out.
do not know.
Never seen it before.
It was a man who was not too tall, about the same age as Zhao Ce, with a smiling face, and layers of wrinkles around his eyes, he looked very easy to get along with.
But Tang Tang is a bit shadowy to people who like to laugh now. Seeing this person laughing like this, he doesn't like it very much.
After the man came out, although the topic of "newcomer" was on his lips, the first thing he looked at was the gift in Tang Tang's hand.
Tang Tang had a weird feeling in her heart. In fact, she hadn't figured out anything yet, but subconsciously, she raised her other hand and put it on the hand that was caught between her fingers.
Pretend that nothing happened, continue the topic just now, "Okay, thank you for the gift from the deputy team."
As he spoke, he held the gift with both hands and took it back.
Needless to say, this gift is really heavy. Just now, Zhao Ce was holding it with all his strength, but she didn't feel much. Now it's her turn to hold it by herself, and she realizes how heavy it is.
"The base is really nice. Newcomers can also get gifts from the deputy team." The man raised his head and smiled at Zhao Ce. He didn't know if he meant something or just expressed emotion.
Zhao Ce pretended not to understand, and turned to him gently, "These two rookies have completed two high-level tasks in a row this time, and they should be encouraged by gifts."
The man smiled, and followed Zhao Ce's words, "I don't know if I can take a look at the base in advance. What kind of gift is this for them? I promise to just take a look, keep it secret, and never disclose it to them. How about it?" ?”
Tang Tang listened to what this person said, what does this mean, is to take the gift box from her hand, and take a look first
She looked up at Zhao Ce, wanting to see what he was thinking.
Seeing Zhao Cewen's frown frowning, he looked very embarrassed, "This..."
"I'll just take a look and promise not to tell them what gift is inside." The man promised with a smile.
Zhao Ce had a helpless expression, "It's useless for you to tell me, I've already given them this gift, if you want to ask, it's to ask if they mind, don't you?"
Tang Tang: ...
Tang Tang groaned in his heart, this is pushing the troubles here, he is really good at laughing and hurting people!
Looking at Zhao Ce, Tang Tang secretly ground his teeth. But it didn't show on the surface, and even pretended that they didn't hear Zhao Ce's words, so they put away the gift.
That person winked a little, should he shut up
However, this was only her expectation. Judging by the appearance of that person, he didn't seem like someone who would give up casually.
"This newcomer waits first."
Sure enough, as soon as she put the gift in her pocket, the man on the opposite side spoke to her.
The first sentence reminded her of her identity—a newcomer, I am afraid that she will have to use her identity to suppress her next.
But what makes Tang Tang a little incomprehensible is that unless this person is the captain Huang Ling, can he still be so gangster with the vice captain? Everyone can see Zhao Ce's meaning clearly, he doesn't want this smiling person to see the gift, right
Tang Tang thought so, raised his eyes indifferently, and casually "huh?" when looking at the man, "What's the matter?"
The man probably didn't expect a newcomer to be so disrespectful to him, and the smile on his face almost couldn't be maintained. After a long while, seeing Tang Tang's face even showing impatience, he smiled again and opened his mouth.
It's just that the smile was not as big as before, it seemed stiff and unnatural, and there was a feeling of trying to squeeze it out.
"People in the base call me the boss, I want to take a look at the gift in your hand, can you bring it to me?"
Boss
Are you really planning to use your identity to suppress people
After listening to what he said, Tang Tang looked at Zhao Ce at the side, and saw Zhao Ce frowning slightly, noticing the sight she was looking at, and pursed her lips tightly.
"Deputy team, what do you think? Should I show him this gift first?"
Tang Tang specially emphasized the tone on the gift, always paying attention to Zhao Ce's expression, and then found that after he was stunned for a while, he seemed to be thinking about something, then nodded, and replied carefully: "If you don't mind, the gift is of course You can show them."
Zhao Ce looked at her, and also tried hard on the word "gift".
It's just that his slightly frowned eyebrows still expressed his worry at the moment.
But after getting his reply, Tang Tang already had an idea.
This guy surnamed Guan is not a good person at first glance, he might be cautious, if he didn't show him the gift today, he might secretly make trouble for them. If it's just to make trouble for her, it's fine, if it will implicate other people in the team, then the loss outweighs the gain.
Anyway, this is Zhao Ce's trouble for them.
Now that he said that it doesn't matter if it's just a gift for this person to take a look at, then she should just show him a look, so that he won't have to worry about it all the time and trouble them when the time comes.
Tang Tang thought so, the expression on his face remained the same, should he be indifferent or indifferent, but just handed the hand he had just withdrawn forward again.
During this time, she did not even change the movement of her hands.
This made Zhao Ce anxious.
Zhao Ce now suspects that Tang Tang didn't understand the meaning of his words at all just now. The gift he said can indeed be shown to the surname Guan, but Tang Tang just stretched out his hand like this. As soon as the man took the gift away, there was a gap between her fingers. Something soon exposed
Then, isn't he working so hard for nothing
Zhao Ce suddenly had a headache, and sighed silently, alas.
Boss Guan looked at the paper box handed in front of him, with a bright smile on his face, and he didn't care about Tang Tang's indifference at this time, he raised his hand with a smile, and was about to take it, "Okay, the little girl is so good, give it to me."
It's "little girl" again.
When Tang Tang heard this name now, he was in a bad mood.
Zhao Ce became even more nervous, as soon as Guan's hand touched Tang Tang's, he would notice it immediately without waiting for him to pick up the box.
He held his breath, his eyes fixed for a moment.
The surname Guan smiled, in a good mood, raised his hand and took the box directly from Tang Tang's hand. As soon as the box was picked up, his eyes did not move with the box, but stared straight at Tang Tang's hand.
Guan Boss had a confident smile on his lips, as if everything was under control and nothing could escape his eyes, but when he saw Tang Tang's palm, his smile froze.
Why nothing
His eyes widened for a moment. He had been staring at the girl's hand just now. He clearly saw that the movement of her hand hadn't changed a bit, but how could there be nothing in her hand
Did Zhao Ce really hide things in this box
Boss Guan took a deep breath and opened the box directly.
Tang Tang stood in front of him, with a height advantage, she could see clearly that there was nothing special in the box, it was just a big crystal nucleus, and she drank two bottles of potions. Other than that, nothing.
that's it
Tang Tang glanced at Zhao Ce.
I saw the person who was nervous just now, with a gentle and relaxed smile, noticed her gaze, and even smiled at her.
Tang Tang raised her eyebrows. It seems that what is really important is the thing he stuffed between her fingers just now.
"The base is a bit stingy, why did you prepare these few things?" Guan's smile stiffened.
"I've said it before. This is just to encourage them. The real reward is a separate three-story building. You still don't believe it." Zhao Ce replied easily.
Guan Boss smiled and handed the box back to Tang Tang, "Work hard, there will be more good things later."
Seeing his reluctant and stiff expression, Tang Tang agreed, "Of course."
"The deputy team really gave you this gift? Is there nothing else?" He didn't give up and asked again.
Tang Tang blocked him with Zhao Ce's words, "There is also a three-story building, I like it very much."
"… All right."
"Deputy team, I'll take Miss Tang and the others back first." Ding Chi, who had been standing by the side, stepped forward and said.
Zhao Ce nodded, "Okay, let's go back first. I have done two high-level tasks in a row, so take a good rest."
After going out for a long distance, Tang Tang sighed.
"Just five minutes." Ding Chi raised the watch in Yang's hand.
Tang Tang: "Is the surname Guan very powerful in the base? Why does it always seem to be against the deputy captain?"
"You will know about this matter when you go back and open the present." Ding Chi didn't say much.
"Gift? There are only two bottles of medicine and one crystal nucleus in this box, how can you know?" Tang Tang took out the box directly and opened it for him to see.
"I don't know either. Ms. Tang should go back and figure it out for herself."
Ding Chi sent the two of them back to the door of the earthen house, turned and left without stopping.
"Tang Tang! You are finally back!" Everyone waiting in the earthwork knew what happened in the past half a month. When they saw the two of them, they ran over immediately.
Yan Chen observed her up and down, "No injuries, right? Did the zombies rush into that shopping mall?"
Tang Tang shook his head, "No, don't worry, I'm fine."
The two talked with everyone in the team again, and everyone stopped talking when they saw the exhaustion that could not be concealed on their faces.
"Tang Tang, guess, what have I prepared for you?" Chang Sheng, who has always been very active, looked at Tang Tang excitedly, his eyes full of "guess quickly."
How could Tang Tang know what he had prepared, and thought for a long time, "Eat?"
"No, no." Chang Sheng shook his head.
Tang Tang thought again, but still had no thoughts, and finally shook his head.
"Come with me." Chang Sheng glanced at her and Jiang Yi beside her, motioning for them to follow.
Tang Tang didn't know what he was going to do, so he looked at Jiang Zhu and walked in. As a result, Chang Sheng stopped in front of a small earthen house.
The small earthen house is at the corner of the big earthen house. It does not occupy a large area, but it occupies a small site alone. At this time, Chang Sheng stopped, pointed to the small soil shell, and said to Tang Tang, "Look at what I prepared for you alone!"
Prepared separately for us
Tang Tang was shocked when he heard this, and prepared a small soil shell alone
This is…
"In the future, you two can rest in this soil shell. How about it? Isn't it very warm?" Chang Sheng boasted all over his face, and even winked at Jiang Zhu.
Tang Tang: ...
She is still here!
Well, it's really good.
"Don't stand there, go in quickly." Chang Sheng couldn't wait, and pushed the two of them to stuff them in.
It's just that the door of the earth shell is too small, only one person can pass through at a time, and Tang Tang goes in first.
"How is it?" Chang Sheng saw that Tang Tang had walked in, and asked Jiang Zhu in a low voice, "I have tried the sound insulation effect of this earthen house, and it is not bad."
Jiang Zhu pressed the corner of his mouth into a smile, "Thank you."
"Go in quickly and have a good rest." Chang Sheng couldn't wait to push Jiang Zhu in.
Then the door of the little soil shell closed.
Jiang Chi, who had been watching from the sidelines, fell into deep thought as he looked at the little soil shell. Until Chang Sheng came over and was about to pull everyone around Tu Ke aside, but everyone else left, so it was up to Jiang Zhi to leave.
"You smile so obscenely." Jiang Chi looked at the smile on Chang Sheng's face and pointed it out bluntly.
Chang Sheng: ...
"You don't understand, come with me quickly."
"Why don't I get it? You want them in that uh uh..."
Chang Sheng quickly covered his mouth, that's all! Is he Chang Sheng that kind of wretched person? What is this silly boy doing with such a loud voice? Do you want everyone to know!
The sound insulation effect of the small soil shell is really good. Tang Tang didn't hear anything inside, and there was only silence around.
Jiang Zhu was sitting opposite Tang Tang. He didn't speak at this time, but his eyes softened and looked at her.
"I'll take out the quilt, let's rest first," Tang Tang broke the silence. In fact, Jiang Zhu's eyes were too soft, and she couldn't bear it.
The small soil shell is not big, it is really not big, if two people are resting, there is really no way to put two separate quilts. Even put a bed, the four corners have to be warped. In this case, when two people rest, they must lie down together, and the distance must be very close.
"Well, rest."
Jiang Zhu spread the quilt obediently, lay down on it first, and looked at Tang Tang while lying on his back. The smile on the corner of his mouth was normal, and he didn't seem to think much about it.
Just opened his arms silently and placed them on Tang Tang's side.
Ok, there are free pillows.
Tang Tang didn't think too much, and simply lay down.
As a result, as soon as he lay down on his back, the arm under his head was retracted, and at the same time, the arm placed around Tang Tang's waist was also exerted force. Tang Tang only felt that when his eyes were turned, when he opened his eyes again, he was already lying on Jiang Zhu's body.
Tang Tang: ...
"Sleep and sleep!" Tang Tang raised his hand and rubbed Jiang Zhu's face, expressing his dissatisfaction.
"Well, sleep, I'll let you sleep with one kiss." Jiang Zhu finally couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth, and said shamelessly.
Jiang Zhu, you have changed!
How did you become like this
You were not like this at the beginning!
Tang Tang felt all kinds of crazy in his heart, but he still lowered his head slowly and babbled.
"Okay, go to sleep!"
Tang Tang pushed his arm, saying that he was uncomfortable sleeping like this.
"Well, sleep." Jiang Zhu's voice was low, and when he put her back on the quilt, he lowered his head and gave her a small peck.
Tang Tang took a deep breath, exhaled again, turned around silently, and fell asleep with his back to Jiang Zhu.
Getting along like this always makes her feel that they are back in the past...
Tang Tang fell asleep quickly, and when she realized that her breathing had become long and slow, Jiang Zhu, who turned sideways to hug Tang Tang, slowly opened her eyes.
Without alarming Tang Tang, Jiang Zhu slowly lay on his side.
He looked deeply at Tang Tang's peaceful sleeping face, moved his hand around her waist, and gently caressed Tang Tang's soft cheeks. Tang Tang probably got a little itchy, so he snorted twice .
Jiang Zhu's movements stopped.
After Tang Tang turned around, rubbed in his arms, and fell asleep again, he continued to caress her face. Caressing, fingertips fell on her lips, back and forth, soft and delicate.
Tang Tang felt itchy again, and pursed his lips. From Jiang Zhu's point of view, it was like kissing him.
Jiang Zhu's lips pursed into a smile, but her eyes were full of incomprehensible emotions. At this time, the hand that was stroking Tang Tang's lips moved to the back of her head, and she lowered her head slowly.
After a while, when Tang Tang moved again, Jiang Zhu raised his head.
He looked at Tang Tang, who was dissatisfied with his moving around to disturb her sleep, and raised his arms to hug his waist, rubbing it in his arms.
"I don't believe what others say, I just want to hear what you tell me personally."
After a while, Jiang Zhu closed his eyes and lay back.
He pressed Tang Tang in his arms, leaned close to her ear to suppress, and said softly, "Tang Tang, you know, I like you."
·
When Tang Tang woke up the next day, he didn't know why, but he felt a little weird feeling on his lips. She raised her hand to touch it, but couldn't quite get it out.
But she just had a weird feeling.
Thinking of this, she cast her eyes on Jiang Zhu who was still asleep.
Lip red is a very common thing, but today, Tang Tang felt that Jiang Zhu's red lips were not normal.
In fact, there is nothing too obviously abnormal, because Jiang Zhu is already white, even if the color of the lips is not very red, it will be obvious when compared with the fair face.
It's just that in Tang Tang's impression, Jiang Zhu's lip red is relatively light, but at this time, it feels a little redder than usual.
Coupled with the feeling on her own lips, well, she was a little suspicious...
"Are you awake?" Jiang Zhu woke up with sleepy eyes. When she opened her eyes dimly, she saw Tang Tang sitting beside him. Her first reaction was to raise her hand to hug her.
Tang Tang snorted and slapped his paws away.
Jiang Yi looked as if he hadn't woken up yet. He was rejected and froze for a while before slowly waking up.
"What's wrong? Wasn't it fine last night?" Jiang Zhu sat up from the ground and sat next to Tang Tang.
Tang Tang looked at him suspiciously, "Why is your mouth a little red?"
Jiang Zhu obviously paused, and under Tang Tang's almost staring eyes, he admitted what he did last night.
Seeing that he admitted without shyness at all, Tang Tang's understanding of Jiang Zhu has reached another level.
Well, let's get this out of the way first.
Tang Tang took out the food from the hidden space, and handed it to Jiang Zhu, "Let's eat first, let's take a look at the gift given by the vice-captain before."
It is estimated that more than half of the weight of the gift box was brought by the large crystal nucleus. Tang Tang took out the crystal nucleus from the box.
Sure enough, this crystal nucleus is very heavy. She handed the crystal nucleus to Jiang Zhu, "Do you see anything special about this crystal nucleus?"
On the way back, they also brought back a lot of crystal nuclei, including the crystal nuclei of zombies that doubled in size, but even those crystal nuclei of zombies that doubled in size did not have the current ones. half as big.
"It contains a lot of supernatural energy." Jiang Zhu closed his eyes and felt it carefully. "Other than that, there is nothing special about it."
Tang Tang actually discovered that there are more supernatural energy, but she is afraid that she is wrong in her judgment. Now that Jiang Zhu thinks so, it seems that this crystal nucleus is really like this.
She took out two more bottles of medicine from the box.
There are words written on the bottle, one bottle: instant lifting power medicine, and one bottle: quick healing medicine for wounds. It didn't look like anything special either.
What Ding Chi said before, as long as you take out the gift and take a good look, you can know what the message means
Tang Tang thought of what Zhao Ce had secretly stuffed into her hand before, and with a thought, she took it out from the hidden space and put it in the palm of her hand.
It's just a key.
Jiang Zhu looked over.
Tang Tang noticed, and told what happened to Zhao Ce, from beginning to end, every detail she noticed.
"Let me see."
Tang Tang handed the key to him.
"Eh? There seems to be a hole here." When Tang Tang was poking the box with nothing, he suddenly touched a certain place that seemed to be different from the touch next to it.
She used a little force, and the thick paper on the surface broke.
Tang Tang looked down and saw that the hole was inside the part where the crystal nucleus was originally placed, and it was located at a corner of the cuboid box. If she hadn't poked it boredly, I'm afraid it would not have been noticed.
Pull away the torn paper on the outside, and there is a small hole inside.
Tang Tang took out the flashlight and looked towards the hole. In the depths of the hole, there happened to be a device that could accommodate a key.
"It seems that the key can be used here," Tang Tang hurriedly showed the hole to Jiang Zhu.
Jiang Zhu looked over, raised his hand and aimed the key at it.
With a "click", the box, which was not thick at first, suddenly opened a small slit at the bottom less than one centimeter thick. Tang Tang looked at it, reached in and pulled it aside according to the gap.
After pulling for a long time, it was only half opened.
I can't tell, the box looks ordinary on the surface, but it's actually very thoughtfully designed.
After the gap was completely opened, the two could see clearly what was placed on the bottom layer.
Just a piece of paper.
Jiang Zhu took out the paper from the bottom. Looking at it this time, there was really nothing in the box.
Jiang Zhu opened the paper and put it in front of the two of them, only to see that it was densely packed with writing and drawing, and there were many things arranged there.
According to the introduction on the paper, people from the opposing "boss" camp were mixed into the base, but because of the late discovery, a lot of information has been intercepted and released. This time, the deputy team personally released the confidential task, so that Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu would take the key as soon as possible, lead the eyeliner in the base, and mix into the main camp of the opposing boss.
The accompanying map is a simple map, which is the route they need to take to get into the opponent's camp.
"What do you mean? Does it mean that Boss Guan is from the opposite boss's side?" Tang Tang looked at the piece of paper, thinking of Boss Guan who was smiling too brightly, and turned his head to ask Jiang Zhu.
"It should be," Jiang Zhu nodded.
"Then what we have to do now is to start as soon as possible?"
Tang Tang frowned, she originally wanted to take Jiang Zhu to Wang Jue to check the situation by taking advantage of the opportunity of coming back this time. But now it seems that this task is urgent, and I am afraid that we have to set off immediately.
"Well," Jiang Zhu said with a silent expression, and seemed not too happy about the sudden task.
After resting for a day and a night, Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu finally walked out of the small soil shell.
Although everyone in the team was doing their own things, they still paid more attention to the little soil shell here. Seeing the two people coming out of it, they immediately surrounded them again.
After the two had a conversation with everyone, they pulled Yan Chen and the others aside alone.
"We have received the mission again. I don't know how long it will take to go out for this mission. You must protect the team while you stay at the base." Tang Tang paused for a moment, and didn't directly say who might be offended, just said, " Not all people in the base are good people, so be careful."
Yan Chen nodded, "Okay, we must be careful, just keep it here and never go out."
"But you just came back, why did you take on the task again, don't you want to rest for a while?"
Tang Tang thought, "It's okay, do more tasks, and then everyone can move to those single houses together."
"Then are you leaving now?" Chang Sheng asked.
Tang Tang shook his head, "Feng Ling has a teammate named Wang Jue, I want to find him before setting off."
After thinking about it for a long time, she still felt that Jiang Zhu's matter could not be delayed. Who knows what will develop in the end, it is better to find an opportunity to check first.
Yan Chen frowned upon hearing this, "I'm afraid you won't see him."
"Why?" Tang Tang, "He said last time that he can go to him after returning to the base."
"Feng Ling was severely bitten by a zombie when he came back. He is now working with the healers and researchers in their team to study the method of rescuing Feng Ling, which is equivalent to retreat." Yan Chen explained.
"Severe bite?"
Tang Tang didn't know the news yet, so he was a little surprised to hear it.
"Yes, the whole arm is gone, and the current healers in the base can't do anything about it."
Tang Tang was silent, and asked after a while, "Then I'll go and see Feng Ling, can I see you?"
Yan Chen shook his head, "I'm afraid it won't work, I went to see it once after I came back, but I didn't see it, so I said it was inconvenient."
Tang Tang pursed her lips and said nothing.
That night, Tang Tang and Jiang Zhu left the earthen house silently when everyone fell asleep.
They walked lightly all the way, and finally left the base without being noticed by anyone.
According to the map and the instructions written on the piece of paper, what they are going to now is another city adjacent to City V.
Jiang Zhu had passed by that city when he was looking for Tang Tang. At this time, he saw the map and soon got a little impression.
The two followed the path, and because they didn't want to waste time in the process of solving the zombies, they finally decided to fly over with their abilities.
Tang Tang's black ball can fly at least three meters.
Jiang Zhu's starry sky belt is a bit difficult to operate if he wants to wrap himself up and fly, so he finally decides to stay in the black ball temporarily, and when he gets there, Tang Tang will return him the ability to suck the black ball away.
Fearing that the moving light source like the white ball would attract the attention of others, Tang Tang only covered the black ball this time. At this time, the two of them flew together in mid-air and quickly flew towards the indicated point on the map.
The zombies on the ground below smelled the human smell, but as soon as they raised their heads following the smell, they found that the human smell was gone.
Seeing this, Tang Tang breathed a sigh of relief.
The first destination on the map was an abandoned warehouse, which was not in the center of the city. The two of them arrived after less than half an hour's journey.
It's just that there are a lot of zombies scattered around the warehouse. As soon as the two approached, those aimless zombies smelled the smell. In an instant, dozens of zombies looked up at the two of them.
It's dark at night, Tang Tang can't actually see the eyes of those zombies.
It's just the clicking, clicking sound when they raise their heads, which is really obvious, especially at night.
The city is unusually quiet, and it may also be because this is only the edge of the city, the surroundings are quiet, and they didn't even see anyone other than zombies along the way.
"Jie Jie! Chi—"
The zombie waved its claws, scratching and trying to grab the two people above.
It's just that after grasping for a long time, they still can't touch anything, which makes them become irritable, and the roar becomes louder.
"Shall we get rid of these zombies first?" Tang Tang asked.
Jiang nodded one by one, "Yeah."
The two made a decision. Tang Tang's ability to control the black ball allowed the two to stand on the roof of the warehouse. She removed the black ball from Jiang Zhu's body, and at the same time returned his ability.
Tang Tang and others saw that Jiang Zhu's ability could be used normally, so he was relieved, and controlled the ability to fly out.
The two split up to deal with the zombies, because there were a lot of them, and there were zombies from other places running over. They worked hard for an hour before they finished almost all the zombies nearby.
