Of course, Cheng Huaiqian was just thinking about it. After all, they were planning to participate in the "search" operation of the research base organization. If the research base got into chaos first, it might not work.
So the three just sat and watched the rescue teams in each base get busy, and the research base gave everyone a day to consider whether to join the mission.
The rescue team originally took this as a joke, but unexpectedly, the captains of the rescue team had a completely different attitude. They were persuading their team members to participate in the mission of the research base.
By now, everyone understood that the co-authors of their own base knew about it, and so did the captains. In the end, only the bottom-level team members who didn't know about it were kept in the dark and brought to the research base.
Before dinner is the last time limit for registration given by the research base. Those who are willing to participate in the search operation can stay in the base. Those who are not willing to participate have to leave the base, borrow their parking lot for one night, and leave at dawn the next day.
Dongzi had been looking for the three of Xia Ruize all day long, and it was not until the afternoon that he finally found them in the dormitory.
"Are you guys going to participate?" Dongzi asked straight to the point, and took the initiative to express his sincerity: "I'm going to stay anyway, this is obviously an extended task, and such a clear extended task is hard to come across. Can't miss it. If you are brave enough to die, if you starve to death the timid, do you want to fight together?"
After listening to the researcher's speech, Dongzi realized that the search task was an extended task. For the tester, he could freely choose whether to participate.
If you participate, you may encounter more dangers. If you don't participate, you can gain a lot of body stats by daily hunting of living corpses.
After careful consideration, Dongzi decided to stay and participate. Although the difficulty of the task has increased significantly to the naked eye, it is difficult to encounter such extended tasks that do not require much effort to develop and are directly placed in front of him. He has experienced more than a dozen task worlds, Only encountered three times.
So Dongzi approached Xia Ruize and the three again, trying to pull the three of them to stay together so that they could take care of each other. He had seen Xia Ruize's fighting power with his own eyes, so he was a worthwhile help.
"We stay too."
Xia Ruize smiled, seeing Dongzi heaved a sigh of relief, and then complained:
"That's right, the horse has no night grass and is not fat, and there is no future if you don't complete the extended mission. The one in my team will not go. Hey, this kind of world, isn't it such a disgusting environment wherever you stay, what's the difference
That's enough, I'm relieved to get the approval of the three brothers. If we are divided into a team at that time, we will take care of each other. "
Dongzi was rejected last time, and this time he didn't think about joining the team of three, but as fellow villagers, it's okay to take care of each other without affecting yourself, right
After getting an affirmative answer, Dongzi left happily.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian sat side by side in the corner discussing arrangements, while Gao and Xuan tried their best to search for relevant information on the research base's last search mission, and prepared in advance. The three of them formed a small world of their own, very leisurely.
But this dormitory area is actually very chaotic, with some yelling, some slapping the table and shouting, and some persuading them earnestly. In short, it was extremely chaotic all day long, until the end, the list submitted by each team leader kept changing.
The research base obtained a list of people who were willing to participate in the search mission. Of the more than 600 rescuers sent from each base, only more than 200 people remained in the end.
The guards sent all the people who were about to leave out of the inner area of the base and back to the original parking lot, and the dormitory area suddenly became empty.
Those who stayed had a richer dinner, and the atmosphere was much quieter than the previous few days. After all, many people stayed half-forced, or were tempted by the rewards given by the captain, or threatened by the captain's excuses. In short, people like Xia Ruize and Dongzi who are willing to stay are only a minority.
At the thought of traveling tens of thousands of kilometers across the continent to find virus data, many people feel their scalps tingling and their hearts filled with despair. Even eating delicious food cannot completely soothe their wounded hearts.
On the contrary, the research base was very excited. After all, they had prepared for this for a long time. After dinner, they brought everyone to the auditorium to arrange groups.
More than 200 people will be divided into two roads, taking different routes, more than 100 people in each road, divided into ten cars, twelve people in each car, the team leader of each team and the small team leader of each car will be determined by the research team. The guards of the base are in charge, and the rescuers from other bases, regardless of their previous identities, are ordinary members in the search mission.
The next step is to arrange the personnel of each vehicle. The research base did not forcefully separate the people who were acquainted with each other. On the contrary, they adopted the personal opinions of the team members.
Xia Ruize's teammates in the vehicle were all familiar faces. Apart from Cheng Huaiqian and Gao Hexuan, Dongzi, Qin Feng, and the girl from the fire department who had been in the same car before, Bai Mengru and her two teammates, as well as members of the previous team Captain Cui Wenyang.
Carrying out new tasks with familiar teammates can always calm down the anxiety in my heart.
After being divided into groups, Xia Ruize and others also met their new team leader, Liu Jie from the research base. Liu Jie looked younger than most of the others. When he smiled and introduced himself, he showed two small canine teeth, his eyes were clear, Big smile, looks easy to get along with.
In addition to grouping, the base also explained the road map in detail, making sure that every team member is clear about their plan to ensure that even if there is only one car left, they can continue to move towards the goal.
It was late at night, and everyone went back to the dormitory to rest. After dawn the next day, as the people in the parking lot left, the short-lived and lively research base became much quieter. The newly recruited team members were busy all day long. , Prepare supplies for travel.
From trucks to weapons to logistics materials, all are provided by the research base. It has to be said that the materials in the research base are rich and high-quality, and the safety and functionality of the trucks alone far exceed the original base.
Not to mention weapons, their power and convenience have been greatly improved, which makes the team members who load the supplies with their own hands feel more confident.
In addition, military training was arranged in the morning and evening, trying to make these soldiers from various bases run in as soon as possible.
After two days of preparation, the team finally drove out of the cave.
It was not until before the departure that everyone knew that the trip was accompanied by researchers. Each car was assigned to a researcher, and the team members were responsible for protecting the safety of the researchers.
As compensation for everyone, each team member received a life bottle developed by the research base.
The three of Xia Ruize were the happiest. The bottles in the research base were much larger than those in the future base, and could store more life energy.
They stayed in the base for the past few days, and they had to sneak out through the small door on the side of the base in the middle of the night every day. It was really hard work to collect enough life energy and come back overnight. They always wanted more life bottles. Now The wish came true, looking at the young male researcher assigned to their car, naturally there is nothing dissatisfied.
Xia Ruize's vehicle was the second vehicle of the second convoy, and the first vehicle was the guard of the research base.
The convoy left the research base and embarked on a long journey to find the mission.
For a whole day, the team members used the living corpses on the road to test the newly acquired weapons, and they were really easy to use. The shooting was stable and powerful, and they could easily deal with threats.
In order to catch up with time, the team did not stop to rest at night, but only changed drivers, leaving a small number of team members on duty at night, while the others were on the hammocks in the carriages, taking the time to rest amidst the shaking of the vehicles.
Fortunately, with life energy in hand, I can sleep deeply if I don’t want to.
The fighters with strong bodies could still hold on, and the researchers with weak physiques were all tortured to the point of discoloration, but they all gritted their teeth and refused to slow down the convoy.
In the arduous journey of traveling day and night and constantly rushing out of the siege of living corpses, the only thing that can make people feel gratified is probably the three meals a day. In order to reward the hard-working soldiers, the logistics team tried their best to make each meal rich and delicious.
All the way to the north, after leaving the border, there are fewer enemies encountered, because the area passed by was also a desert with no people before the catastrophe, but now it has become an even more deserted desert.
