In January 966, Lu Ming came to Huituo City, a city in the southern part of the New World.
After one year of special training, 127 people from the Class A special class successfully graduated.
Lu Ming ranked first in all subjects in the graduation exams, and in many subjects, he was far ahead of the second place. As a result, he was appointed as the deputy dispatcher of the newly established special police cluster "White Blood Cell Cluster" and also the team leader of the ninth team.
The role of white blood cells in the human body is to maintain the body's immunity, phagocytize and destroy invading bacteria and pathogens, etc.
This newly formed special military and police group apparently has a similar function and will travel across the mountains and rivers of the south to unknown lands to eradicate pathogens that invade the New World.
In addition to the Class A special squad, this special military and police force also assembled the most elite motorcycle special police from all over the country, totaling more than 3,000 people, divided into ten teams, with 300 people in each team.
…
In a dormitory that looked like a green tent military camp, Lu Ming looked at the map in his hand.
In recent years, United Uni-President Enterprises has been exploring how those ferocious beasts crossed the mountains and rivers and came to the New World.
The exploration team has found one of the passages, which is at the uppermost reaches of a large river. The water is extremely turbulent, and any floating objects will sink to the bottom, a bit like a goose feather cannot float. However, it turns out to be frozen, so they can reach the southern region from there without having to cross the mountains.
Putting down the map, Lu Ming pondered.
In the middle of last year, black goat beasts began to appear in the primeval forest in the southwest of the Kingdom of Sonia.
However, the Kingdom of Sonia strictly blocked information, but as Major General Bit, he was more or less a middle- and high-level official with first-level control. He could not see the details of the intelligence, but he had heard of it.
What do the unusual movements in various places indicate
Perhaps, the true secret of this world is gradually coming to light.
Because it is obvious that this world is not formed purely naturally, and some of its weirdness does not conform to the laws of physics.
Lu Ming was daydreaming when the assembly whistle sounded outside.
…
The glacier is tens of kilometers wide, and in the distance, there is only white snow, like a lake.
Looking to the north, there is a dense, dark green tropical primeval forest. The scene is really weird.
The Unified United Enterprise's mobilization capabilities are truly unmatched. After discovering this passage, it took less than a year to open up a road in the primeval forest and build various bunkers on this side of the glacier.
On the glacier, the corpses of the black goat beasts were vaguely visible like small black dots embedded in the glacier.
Due to the cold weather, the corpses could not rot, so they kept piling up. Many of them were killed by the fire from the bunkers.
The expedition team once crossed the glacier to the other side, but was torn to pieces by groups of goats, and only a few people escaped.
The helicopter flew over and crashed directly on the other side.
Now, on the vast white glacier, more than a dozen long black lines are moving forward, which are the motorcycle tank cluster team moving forward.
Watching his companions in front gradually driving into the glacier, Lu Ming put on his helmet, got into the mecha, and slowly started the motorcycle.
I know in my heart that these so-called elite parts like me are expendable in the eyes of the decision-makers of giant companies.
Power parts are not that important in a world ruled by giant corporations.
The white blood cell cluster sent out without knowing anything about the southern world was originally more like a suicidal exploration mission.
However, even if some members of the white blood cells understand this, they will not feel any resistance. Moreover, most members have been living in a collective since birth, and their life trajectories are arranged by the unquestionable company system, so they will not have any doubts at all.
When Lu Ming drove to the other side of the river, the group of ferocious beasts had been dispersed, and everywhere he looked was white.
Communications with the north bank of the river were immediately cut off.
The construction group that followed the white blood cell group immediately began to set up tents and other things, obviously to establish a permanent observation point. Many trucks carrying steel components began to be unloaded and installed around.
Half of the white blood cell cluster consisted of five teams, each of which chose a direction and set out to explore.
The rest of them rested here temporarily and also kept watch on the cluster that was building the steel fortress.
Lu Ming’s ninth team is in the guard team.
Obviously, the necessity of sacrificing white blood cell clusters decreases from the first team to the tenth team.
The tenth team is the most important, and the ninth team is the second most important.
Late at night, the third team retreated one after another. They basically abandoned their motorcycles. However, the direction they were heading in was getting colder and colder. The engine oil had frozen and the motorcycles could not move forward at all. They had to retreat. Some people fell behind and disappeared without knowing how.
A few hours later, the remnants of the second team came back in a very miserable state. The direction they had taken seemed to have led them into a snowy swamp that suddenly collapsed. An unknown number of people were trapped and buried in the collapsed snow, and less than half of them returned in the end.
The other three teams sent messengers back to report that they were not in danger.
There will be iron signposts left in the direction they go.
On the second day, several steel fortresses on the south bank of the glacier gradually took shape.
But by noon, the communicators from the first and fifth teams had not returned.
The communicator of the fourth team came back to report that it turned out that the land of ice and snow did not completely cover the land. The direction they were heading in led them into a desert area where there was not much snow and the temperature was around zero degrees. Moreover, the further they went, the warmer the temperature seemed to be.
…
The cluster chief dispatcher was a big red-haired man in his forties.
In the makeshift tent with Lu Ming, Lu Ming was looking at the photos brought back by the correspondent of the fourth team.
In the desert, there are some drought-resistant and cold-resistant plants, and there is some snow in the shady potholes.
In fact, in this icy and snowy place, even discovering such a desert is good news.
At the very least, it means that humans as a biological organism can establish some solid strongholds.
Moreover, several teams did not report the presence of the ferocious beast.
Of course, the first team and the fifth team have completely lost contact, and there is a high probability that they have been wiped out for unknown reasons. It is not impossible that they have encountered a large number of ferocious beasts.
The dispatcher said, "You lead teams six or seven, your team, and a construction team to build a fortress here."
Lu Ming nodded.
The desert area entered by the fourth team is not far from here, only a few dozen kilometers away. Therefore, building a fortress base as an extension of this base will also become the forefront of exploring this world.
Logistical supplies and the like can also be supplied.
If we continue like this, we may actually be able to gain a foothold in this previously unknown place.
From today's perspective, although there have been many casualties, the progress has been much smoother than expected.
However, has this unknown place really been set foot in by humans
Over there, the dispatcher continued, "The beasts suddenly disappeared. You have to be careful and don't make any mistakes."
Obviously, he and Lu Ming had the same concerns.
