October 19, three o'clock in the morning.

Xiao Mo tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep. He was trying so hard to think of a solution that his hair turned white!

Abilities, upgrades, viruses…

upgrade? upgrade!

Xiao Mo got up from the bed, put on his clothes, pants and shoes and went out.

The young man who didn't really need sleep put down the program he was rewriting and followed without saying anything.

"Sorry." Xiao Mo whispered as he opened the door.

The young man looked into his red eyes and touched his head.

Xiao Mo's heart softened.

Observation and prison room on the back floor.

The guarding soldier saw that they had come so late. Although he was curious, he let them in without asking anything.

Major General Zhang Hua has given instructions that the two of them can contact those virus carriers anytime and anywhere. After all, the doctors and researchers in the base are helpless against this new virus, and after knowing what the virus is, no one Willingness to be close to patients.

Xiao Mo, who now only has the ability to heal, dares to come several times a day.

Xiao Mo walked into the big room.

Linghu woke up first and turned over to sit up.

While Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong did not deliberately hide their movements, Kang Lu and the researcher were also awakened one after another. Lin Xiaofei was still a sleepy child, curled up in the quilt and sleeping very soundly.

"The results are out?" Linghu asked calmly.

Xiao Mo took a deep breath and nodded, "The virus on your body is called the Living Dead Virus. Someone has already issued a mission at the base, requiring that all those carrying the Living Dead Virus must be killed before 12 noon today, otherwise the virus will Big explosion.”

The three of them all changed their colors, and the researcher was the first to jump up, "What are you talking about! Living dead virus? You're not saying that we are all going to become those damn legendary zombies, are you?"

Xiao Mo did not deny it, "It is possible."

The researcher sat back down on the bed, his face extremely pale.

Kang Lu seemed overly surprised, her lips trembling and unable to speak.

Linghu pursed his lips and clenched his fists on his legs.

"You can't save us?" Kang Lu asked in a low voice.

Xiao Mo shook his head.

"Then what are you doing here now! By the way, do you want to kill us? Ah! Are you here to kill us!" The researcher jumped up again and pointed at Xiao Mo's nose and shouted.

Xue Lihong's footsteps moved, and the researcher sat back, but then he stood up again without hesitation, "Come here! Be careful, I will bite you, or we will all die together!"

"If you really think so, you should come secretly." Xiao Mo intentionally or unintentionally blocked Xue Lihong's possible attack route and said to the researcher.

The researcher was stunned, suddenly held his head, and sat down on the bed again. He cried, and low sobs sounded in the room, "I don't want to be a bad person. Before entering here, I thought I was helping all mankind." , Minister Bao also told us this. When we found out that something was wrong and could no longer withdraw, Bao Yuezhi said that if we can't achieve results, each of us will not have a good end, but if we can find someone with special powers, Secret, it will be different, we will rewrite human history. I, I just want to speak with actual results, I want to tell my teacher that I am better than his other students, and he was blind when he did not choose me. , I... disobeyed his teachings, I knew I shouldn't do experiments on human bodies, especially unwillingly... This is all retribution, retribution! Woo woo!"

Xiao Mo lowered his head.

Linghu put down the kettle on the bedside. He was planning to knock the researcher unconscious.

Kang Lu said bitterly and sharply: "I don't know if this is retribution, but retribution shouldn't come to such a young child, right? What are the bases planning to do with us now? Are they planning to let us survive until the last moment? Or do you want us to commit suicide?”

Linghu's voice was still calm, "You don't have to tell us. At twelve o'clock at noon, as long as the soldiers come in with guns and shoot at us, everything will be over. Then why are you here now?"

Xiao Mo raised his head and said, "I came here to try it one last time."

The researcher was still crying, but Kang Lu and Linghu straightened up and looked at him, asking in unison: "How to try?"

Xiao Mo, "This requires taking a lot of risks. If I can succeed, then everyone will be happy. If not, everyone will die together."

Hearing the words "let's all die together", Xue Lihong frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Kang Lu snorted as if she was mocking, "Since it's all about death, then we would definitely rather take risks. Come on, Doctor Xiao."

Linghu naturally had the same opinion.

Although the researcher was still sobbing, he also looked up at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo licked his lower lips, "Now there is another question. Because this is the first attempt, the person who starts first is also the most dangerous. Lin Xiaofei is at the end, so who will be the first?"

"Can you tell me what you want to do?" Kang Lu asked.

"cannot."

The researcher's sobbing stopped and he looked around, always feeling that he would be pushed out first.

Linghu stood up and said, "I'll go first. Kang Lu is a lady, so she will come third."

The researcher was satisfied enough to hear that he had escaped the fate of being the first to be experimented on.

In order to concentrate on the experiment, Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong took Linghu out of the big room.

Xiao Mo just motioned Linghu to lie down on the examination table, and his and Xue Lihong's walkie-talkies suddenly beeped together.

Who would contact them at this late hour

Xiao Mo picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the dialogue switch: "I am Xiao Mo, please speak."

"Xiao Xiao? Is Xiaoxue also with you? I am Zhang Hua. I have something important. Come to the communication room immediately! Hurry!"

Xiao Mo asked what was going on, but Zhang Hua refused to say it on the intercom and repeatedly asked them to come to the communication room immediately.

Xiao Mo had no choice but to put down the walkie-talkie and look at Xue Lihong.

Linghu also sat up and said proactively: "Either you go there first."

This was the only option. Xiao Mo sent Linghu back to the big room, locked the door, and left the observation room with Xue Lihong.

The atmosphere in the communication room was very tense. Cheng Zai and Ma Xiang were both there. They both seemed to have been woken up temporarily, and their eyes were swollen. Ma Xiang was probably middle-aged and had stayed up too late, and the bags under his eyes looked particularly serious.

The correspondent on duty at night straightened his hair nervously. He was the first to get the news and was the most stimulated.

Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong arrived.

Major General Zhang Hua saw them and said to Cheng Zai, "That's it."

Cheng Zai slid his chair and pressed a button on the communication desk.

Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong didn't know what was happening when they heard a familiar voice coming from the other side.

"Have Xiao Xiao and Xiaoxue arrived?"

It's General Qiu Feng.

Xiao Mo took a step forward and received a hint from Cheng Zai that the call was now hands-free.

"It's me, General Qiu, what happened?"

"Major General Zhang?" Qiu Feng did not explain immediately, but asked Zhang Hua first.

Zhang Hua responded affirmatively: "Now everyone here belongs to me."

Qiu Feng then said: "Everyone is here, let me say it again, listen carefully!"

Everyone held their breath.

Xiao Mo's heart beat faster. Is there anything important that General Qiu Feng needs to contact urgently in the middle of the night? Do you still need him and Xue Lihong to be present together

Qiu Feng, "Because of the Living Dead Virus mission, the higher-ups have now decided that if no one can complete the mission before 11 o'clock as required by the mission at noon today, at 11 o'clock on time, the higher-ups will attack the underground of the Chengdong Grain Bureau in H City. The base conducts remote self-destruction procedures!”

Bang! Xiao Mo felt like he had been hit on the head. They issued the mission to facilitate them in finding virus carriers in the base, but now it seemed like they had shot a rock in the foot.

Xiao Mo looked at Xue Lihong, but found that there was no look of surprise on the other person's face, as if he had expected this to happen.

With so many outsiders around, it was difficult for Xiao Mo to question the young man.

Major General Zhang Hua and Lieutenant Colonel Ma Xiang were much more nervous.

Major General Zhang Hua frowned and asked, not knowing who he was asking: "This base's self-destruction program can also be controlled remotely? Why didn't I know?"

Ma Xiang said he didn't know either.

Qiu Feng replied: "I just learned that your base itself is highly confidential. It contains the Aerospace Materials Research Institute. The self-destruction procedure was developed to protect the secrets of the Aerospace Materials Research Institute from being leaked. This time your base The living dead virus appears. The name of this virus is very scary. Since the mission was released, everyone has been afraid of the appearance of the legendary zombies. After all, various monsters appear frequently in the world now, and it is not surprising that zombies will appear again. But the zombies The harm is too great, even if it is only possible, the higher-ups have decided that even if one Yucaiyan is destroyed, even if a base is destroyed, the signs of this harm must be eliminated!"

Ma Xiang cursed angrily: "Why didn't anyone above inform us? There are more than 2,000 people alive in the base. Have they forgotten all of them?"

Major General Zhang Hua held him down and said, "They have not forgotten, they just decided to abandon us."

Ma Xiang was so angry that he kicked the chair down.

Major General Zhang Hua calmly said to Qiu Feng: "General Qiu, thank you, thank you for at least informing us in advance."

Qiu Feng hummed from the opposite side, "I'm not informing you, I don't want my two right-hand men to die inexplicably at your place. But the living dead virus is really annoying. Have you found all the virus carriers?"

"should."

"Then why hasn't the mission been cancelled? That 07 organization is very mysterious and powerful. Even if your place is isolated from the world, as long as you can complete the mission, I think it can still accept it."

"In addition to the unconscious person, four of those people are still conscious."

"...So you can't do it?"

There is no need to answer this question, the silence of the whole audience said everything.

Qiu Feng sneered, "Okay, then let me be the bad guy. I suggest you kill these people right away. If you are afraid of resentment, then tell them that it was me, Qiu Feng, who requested it. They turned into ghosts and came to me!"

Major General Zhang Hua rubbed his forehead and said, "General Qiu, this matter has nothing to do with you. Originally we thought we still had some time and wanted to try again to see if we could eliminate this virus before the mission deadline."

Xiao Mo interrupted Major General Zhang Hua, "General Qiu, I still want to try. There are women and children among those virus carriers..."

"Do you think I don't want to protect women and children?" Qiu Feng cursed before he could finish his words: "How many virus carriers are there in total? Is it those few people who are more important, or the people in the entire base? What if this living dead virus is really a legend? Zombie virus in the world, have you ever thought that letting these people go will kill the whole world? A few people and billions, which one is more important? Don’t fucking tell me about morality, morality and human rights at this time! If it weren’t for you The two boys are stuck there. I wholeheartedly support activating the self-destruction program of your bullshit base right away! Don’t say that it hurts my back to stand and talk. If this kind of virus appeared in my own base, I would have killed all the suspects. Destroyed until nothing is left!"

Lieutenant Colonel Ma Xiang wanted to yell back, but Major General Zhang Hua stopped him. He understood that what Qiu Feng said was just trying to dispel their guilt so that they could take action against those virus carriers.

Major General Zhang Hua said: "I know what to do. General Qiu, thank you for your advice. Xiao Xiao and Xiaoxue are very good. I will protect them both."

Qiu Feng seemed to have been waiting for these words, and his voice softened by an octave, "Zhang Hua, I know you, your dad and I are old acquaintances. After you come out, if there is any trouble in H Base, you can Look for me, I can't do anything else, but I can still do it by sending some people to support you."

Zhang Hua raised his eyebrows. This promise is not small. He has been stuck underground for such a long time. When he gets out, the original h base will probably no longer have his seat, even though he is the nominal military leader of that base. But if Qiu Feng, a powerful general with people and resources, supported him from behind, everything would be different.

Qiu Feng turned around and said: "I know our Xiao Xiao is capable, but you can't catch him and use him to death. That kid is a bit resigned to death, and he is soft-hearted and emotional. If you let him come into contact with those virus carriers every day, he will definitely If you can't bear it, let him leave if you should. Xiao Xiao can do a lot, don't let him get stuck in this matter. Huh?"

The last word "um" is very light, but also full of threats.

Zhang Hua smiled bitterly, is this the family's fight against injustice? However, they did rely too much on Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong. The living dead virus issue almost entirely fell on them, and they barely paid much attention to it.

"Xiao Xiao!" Qiu Feng looked for Xiao Mo again.

"Yes." Xiao Mo also admired and had a headache for General Qiu Feng. This man was able to control so many thorns in his men, and his methods were extremely powerful! In the past, Xiao Hong asked him not to reveal his abilities too much, so he had people secretly take him to the injury camp, so Qiu Feng could tell that he was a little resigned to death and a little soft-hearted.

In the end, Qiu Feng didn't say much to him. He only said: "Protect yourself and think about your family."

Xiao Mo could tell that this was not a threat, but a genuine concern.

After the communication ended, Xiao Mo said before Zhang Hua could say anything to him first: "I want to try again. If I really can't solve the virus on those people, I will give up before 11 o'clock."

Zhang Hua was silent for a moment and said, "Ten o'clock."

Xiao Mo gritted his teeth, "Okay, ten o'clock!"

Major General Zhang Hua didn't know whether he was worried that Xiao Mo was soft-hearted or that other unexpected things would happen, so he sent four soldiers to follow the two men.

Xiao Mo couldn't refuse and could only take them with him.

Returning to the observation room, there were more than ten virus carriers.

In the name of not being disturbed, Xiao Mo asked four soldiers to wait outside.

The soldiers thought for a while and asked him to leave the observation room door open.

Xiao Mo opened the door as instructed and called Linghu out of the big room according to the order just agreed upon.

Before calling Linghu out, Xiao Mo asked Xue Lihong in a low voice and quickly: "When you issued that mission, did you think that the higher-ups would launch a destruction program for the base?"

Xue Lihong said honestly: "I didn't know that there was a self-destruct program in the base, but I guessed that they would take action. After all, the threat of the living dead virus is much greater than other viruses."

"Aren't you afraid..."

"What are you afraid of? As long as we solve the mission target before the time limit, all external threats will disappear. If they really want to ensure that they want to destroy us after our mission is completed, then I have ways to protect you and me. "It's just that the cost is a little high. If you can't use it, it's better not to use it.

The words were spoken too loudly, and the young man's expression was so bland. Xiao Mo waved his hand feebly, not wanting to say anything else.

Linghu came out, Xiao Mo held his wrist, closed his eyes, and tried to start!
