Seeing this, Sang Luoluo threw down several large rocks. The mutated wolves tried to escape immediately, but Lei Qi seized the opportunity and fired several shots, killing three mutated wolves.
"Great teamwork!"
Sang Luoluo watched as the wolves moved further away, unwilling to leave. It seemed she was trying to make them fall on their own; she'd learned her lesson.
Lei Qi fired a few shots, but from a distance, the mutated wolves were on guard, and he only managed to wound two of them, without inflicting fatal damage. "This is getting a bit tricky."
The only method Sang Luoluo could think of right now was to lure her with food.
He said gently, "I have a plan."
Sang Luoluo took out a roasted chicken leg, crispy and juicy, from the warehouse. The moment she took it out, Lei Qi was already drooling. He quickly stopped her, glaring at her and saying, "Are you crazy? You're going to feed them such delicious food!"
Sang Luoluo pointed to the mutated wolves below, saying, "They won't come over so easily. I'm creating an opportunity for you. Chicken legs may smell good, but our lives are more important."
After saying that, he loosened his grip, and the chicken leg instantly fell to the ground, landing in the grass.
These mutated wolves have an exceptionally keen sense of smell. When Sang Luoluo took it out, their eyes were already fixed on the food. However, when they thought of the laser gun in the human's hand, they could only drool and dare not approach.
Soon, dozens of ants crawled out of the grass and rushed towards the chicken leg, trying to carry the food back to their nest.
Lei Qi swallowed hard. "Damn it, now even the mutated ants are coming."
The wolf, seeing its prey about to be snatched away by the mutated ants, couldn't stand it any longer. It rushed forward to grab the chicken leg, and Lei Qi, seeing it coming so quickly, had already fired several shots.
They successfully killed two wolves.
They also fired at the mutated ants, killing more than a dozen of them.
Fortunately, the mutated ants move at a relatively stable speed and are easy to catch. With fewer ants, the other mutated wolves try to take advantage of the other wolves' inattention to snatch the chicken leg.
Seeing this, Sang Luoluo threw down several large rocks, injuring a few more wolves. Lei Qi quickly followed up with his gun, successfully killing three mutated wolves.
One of the mutated wolves was quite clever; it even tried to leap across the stacked stones to pounce on the two of them, but it was shot dead by Lei Qi.
Seeing this, Sang Luoluo's heart pounded. "We can't throw any more stones! The wolf isn't dead yet, but we're doomed!"
"Hmm," Lei Qi agreed.
With so many wolves around them, it's impossible for the two of them to go down so easily.
At this moment, at the spot where Yan Lang's signal disappeared, S17 Squad's helicopter slowly came to a stop in mid-air. Qi Feng led the members of S17 Squad down to investigate and found a strong smell of blood, but no one in sight.
There wasn't even a human body.
Seeing this, Hu Tian guessed, "With such a strong smell of blood, could they have been eaten to the bone by mutated animals?"
Qi Feng scanned the surroundings and said in a deep voice, "There's a peculiar medicinal smell here. Someone used a potion to attack the vines. There should still be some of them alive."
The fat man tested the signal. "There's definitely no signal here."
He Fei rushed over and said, " Captain Qi, I've found signs that someone has left."
Qi Feng quickly said, "Let's go, let's catch up. Leave two people to follow in the air."
"Yes."
Qi Feng led his team following the trail, turning left and right along the way, deep into the Zone 33C. After walking for two hours, it was already late when they suddenly heard gunshots.
Qi Feng gestured for them to hurry up and follow, "It's the Guard's laser gun."
The fat man warned, "Why is there only one gunshot? Could Young Master Yan have died here?"
He Fei said, "Don't jinx it. If he dies, Elder Yan won't let us off the hook. Lei Qi is still in the room across from theirs, but unfortunately there's no signal here, so we can't contact him."
" Captain Qi, there's a mark left by Lei Qi over there," Hu Tian said, pointing to a marker on a thick tree trunk nearby.
Qi Feng immediately ordered, "Quickly, chase after him! He might be up ahead."
He knew how quick-witted Lei Qi was; in this situation, he was most likely the one who would survive unscathed.
At this moment, he had even already considered what would happen to his team if Yan Lang really died here.
" Captain Qi, there's a pack of mutated wolves ahead."
The fat man put away his binoculars.
Qi Feng said, "Increase firepower and charge forward."
"Yes."
The group donned heavy armor and formed a circle, firing as they advanced, narrowing the area. The mutated wolves quickly sensed the presence of other humans and attacked. Each wolf was enormous, and even in their heavy armor, Qi Feng and his companions struggled. Fortunately, their mechs protected them, and they quickly eliminated the mutated wolves. The remaining wolves, realizing the danger, fled in another direction.
The fat man worried, "They say wolves hold grudges; won't they come back for revenge?"
Hu Tian, "Go ahead and search. I'm not someone to be trifled with. Our team has never been afraid of anyone."
After searching around, they finally spotted Lei Qi in a tree branch, with Sang Luoluo beside him. Yan Lang was nowhere to be seen. S17 Squad was utterly disappointed, thinking it was all over.
Elder Yan's son is gone.
"Boss!! Captain!!! I'm here!!!" Lei Qi waved to them, almost crying with excitement.
Seeing the rescue, Sang Luoluo finally breathed a sigh of relief. She wasn't as excited as Lei Qi, but she also felt like she had escaped death.
The two slowly climbed down the tree. Lei Qi ran to check on the chicken leg in the grass, but it had already been taken away by the mutated ants; there wasn't a trace of it left.
He looked at Sang Luoluo with a hint of disappointment. If she hadn't thrown it away so quickly, Captain Qi wouldn't have had to lose such a big piece of chicken leg when he arrived.
The ground reeked of blood. Qi Feng frowned and said, "Get out of here quickly and get on the plane."
Sang Luoluo is afraid of heights, especially climbing ladders. The ladders sway constantly, and when she steps on them, her arms and legs shake uncontrollably, and her body is completely out of her control.
Fortunately, a long, slender hand reached out from the side and grabbed her arm. Sang Luoluo looked up and saw it was Captain Qi.
Sang Luoluo's voice trembled as she said, "I'm afraid of heights."
The sounds from above were not very clear, so Qi Feng upwards and immediately threw down a safety rope. Qi Feng tied it around Sang Luoluo's waist, signaling the people above to pull her up.
Even as the Sang Luoluo to the ground, they were still trembling.
It took quite a while for it to return to normal.
Lei Qi was deeply moved. "Captain, it was you guys who came to save me!"
Qi Feng hadn't forgotten their mission. The helicopter hovered in mid-air as he asked, "Where are Yan Lang and the others? Our mission here is to rescue Yan Lang."
Lei Qi pointed to Sang Luoluo: "In her space. The team was resting at the time. By the time I realized something was wrong, only Sang Luoluo and I were left. Everyone else had fallen unconscious because of the pink mist. Yan Lang and the others were not doing well; their breathing was rapid and their heart rate was too fast. We were afraid he would die, but we couldn't just wait to die on the spot. There was no signal, so we could only temporarily put him in Sang Luoluo's space."
Sang Luoluo nodded, released all the people, dead and alive together, and said gently, "They're all here. I've been watching them. Although their condition isn't good, they're not dead yet."
The helicopter was packed with more than a dozen people, all lying inside.
Qi Feng instructed the pilot to fly to a location with a signal, recorded a video, and sent it to Elder Yan.
Only then did he look at Sang Luoluo and ask, "Can your space hold living people?"
Lei Qi answered for her, "Yes, I've been inside. It's too oppressive; I don't want to go back a second time."
Sang Luoluo nodded.
Hearing Lei Qi's answer, they trusted themselves and decided not to try.
Once the signal was received, Qi Feng immediately reported Yan Lang's situation to Elder Yan. Elder Yan had been waiting for news and saw in the video that his son was unconscious, breathing rapidly, and his various vital signs were abnormal.
After a moment's thought, he immediately gave the order, " Qi Feng, you take S17 Squad and Sang Luoluo to continue the laboratory mission. Tell the others to bring Yan Lang and the others back for treatment."
Qi Feng paused upon hearing this, and the expressions of the other members of the team also turned grim.
Qi Feng said in a low voice, "Yes."
There were two helicopters in total, but neither could carry all of them.
Thinking of Sang Luoluo's space, Qi Feng instructed the helicopter to find a place to land.
This mission only left behind the elite members of his team: Lei Qi, Hu Tian, He Fei, Xiao Li, and Fatty, along with himself and Sang Luoluo.
He left behind the equipment of S16 Squad and obtained the authorization password from Elder Yan, which allowed him to use the contents of the equipment box.
And the heavy armor they brought back.
He also received a detailed list of the specific experimental materials.
Sang Luoluo watched the helicopter fly away with a hint of envy. Although she had only been away for a few days, it felt like a long time had passed.
All the heavy armor was stored in the space, Sang Luoluo followed them.
Then I heard them complaining.
"What a clever scheme! Yan Lang can't complete the task, so he makes us do it for him. If we succeed, it's his Young Master Yan; if we fail, it's our incompetence. Bah!"
"Haven't we always been like this?"
"We're just doing things based on points. What can you do if you don't like it? Can you go against the commander of the Guard?"
"Well."
"..."
Sang Luoluo listened from the side and understood perfectly.
Workplace
It's bullying. But they can't change the situation. Sigh, it's really frustrating.
