Zhang Chen was a latecomer and didn't know where the作战会议 (zhanzheng huiyi - war meeting) had reached.
Moreover, since he entered, he had implicitly become the leader here.
Everyone was looking at him, as if waiting for his instructions.
Instructions for what?!
He had no idea what was going on!
Where are we?
Zhang Chen asked.
We're at... er...
This way, the respected Dream
The camera was first-person, following the squad leader.
He walked at the forefront, so he couldn't see others.
Only when he turned around could he occasionally see the figures of others.
From the surrounding environment, it could be inferred that these people were still within the smog-covered range of Pingze City, and the sky was somewhat dim. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
According to the map, we'll pass this intersection and continue forward for about 3 kilometers to reach an abandoned security checkpoint!
This was a place the Tengxiang Kingdom used to screen survivors and infected, for preliminary diversion and defense!
Past this point, and another 5 kilometers forward, will be the outer defense fortifications of the interface city!
Another 5 kilometers or so further, and we can reach the city walls of the interface city!
The distance between the interface city and the suburbs of Pingze City is not far. If we accelerate, we can pass through it in half an hour!
But our mission today is reconnaissance. We need to avoid monsters as much as possible and deliver more intelligence to the camp. Is everyone clear?
The others immediately replied: Clear!
Then, the camera swept across the faces of each reconnaissance team member.
Finally, it refocused on the intersection ahead.
The other end of the intersection was a hazy gray.
It was like the smog Zhang Chen and Xiao Guanghan had encountered when they first entered Pingze City.
It seemed that this ring of smog had enclosed a rather large area of Pingze City!
The team members turned on the faint yellow fog lights on their combat suits.
The members exchanged glances, then formed a formation of three in front and two behind, slowly advancing into the smog area.
These five survivors were indeed very cautious, making almost no sound as they walked, and maintaining just the right distance between each other to observe and support each other in time.
The fog lights were also aimed only towards their teammates, preventing scattered light from attracting monsters.
Cotton-like objects occasionally drifted past the camera.
Everyone continued along the road.
Although the team members' breathing was somewhat rapid due to tension throughout the journey,
no incidents occurred.
After more than ten minutes, the reconnaissance team arrived at the security checkpoint marked on the map.
The barbed wire on both sides of the road had been broken.
There were dried bloodstains on the tents connected behind the security checkpoint.
The dense fog had not yet dissipated, and the visibility was very low.
When Zhang Chen entered, he had only walked about one or two kilometers.
The smog here was so thick that even after three kilometers, there was no sign of clearing.
The reconnaissance group leader took out the [Short-range Locator]: Attach accessories to teammates, and the instrument can display the teammates' direction and position, with an effective range of 1 kilometer.
Currently, no danger has been detected, nor have the traces of the previous team been found, not even signs of fighting!
All team members, spread out and act. If you encounter danger, press the alarm button. Unless it's absolutely necessary, try not to engage with monsters!
The leader whispered his orders.
Understood!
Received!
Several team members nodded and began searching in four different directions.
There were many tents behind the security checkpoint.
Some were for diverting survivors, some were for housing the wounded and staff, and others were used for isolating the infected.
Only by finding clues from other teams, even corpses, could they make some predictions about the monsters' attack methods and body sizes.
Reconnaissance like this, with all information unknown, made people's hearts hang in suspense.
They were afraid that something would suddenly leap out of the dense fog and kill the team members one by one!
A few minutes later, the leader suddenly received a red warning from one of the team members.
Once in combat state, communication is not possible.
So, only through this method can simple communication be carried out.
It was the team member exploring the blue tent area to the front left who sent out the warning signal.
Before the squad leader could react,
soon, the other three also sent out warning signals.
The four red dots on the indicator were flashing rapidly.
They had remained stationary for a period of time, and then immediately began to converge towards the leader's direction.
What... what is this situation?
The reconnaissance squad leader was not stupid; he knew something had definitely happened.
He decisively began to retreat, hiding in a restaurant by the roadside.
His gaze was fixed on the [Short-range Locator], watching as the four flashing warning dots returned to the spot where he had just stood.
He paused, and then the four dots spread out, heading towards the vicinity to explore.
The reconnaissance squad leader slowly stood up, his back pressed against the wall, his face turned sideways. Through the window, he looked outside.
The teammates' combat suits had fog lights, which could illuminate a distance of at least 10 meters in the dense fog.
By the shaking of the fog lights, the leader could determine whether it was a human walking or a monster or other infected moving.
Even zombies, which moved most similarly to humans, had significant differences in their movement.
But what he found strange was.
The indicator clearly showed the target was about 5 meters outside the window.
But there was no sign of fog lights outside the window.
If they were still alive, and the fight was over, they should at least have used private messages to contact him.
But the chat channel was empty.
In a moment of stunned realization, the leader looked at the locator again and suddenly found that the position of one red dot almost overlapped with his own.
The distance between them was only one or two meters.
The leader silently took out his curved knife and slowly looked around.
There was no one, no fog lights, not even the sound of breathing or footsteps...
Suddenly, a pale, grinning face appeared fiercely in front of the leader's diagonal!
The screen went black, and the video ended!
