Since Lianyi decided to take the whirlwind on a mission, she naturally didn't just say it. Especially after listening to Situ Yi's story, she knew that the situation there should be very bad, and those rats with increased mutations should be difficult to deal with, otherwise they would not let her go. They take action.
So she not only armed herself to the teeth, but also armed the whirlwind and gave it a pair of soft armor to protect its belly, back and butt.
At first, Xuanfeng was not willing to wear this soft armor, but after Ripple patiently explained it to it, it accepted it. However, Xuanfeng still pushed the soft armor into Ripple's bag, hoping that Lianyi didn't object when he wore it again when he got to the place.
This time Jiayao continued to stay at home. Liu Zili and Xu Fenfang left one person at home to take care of their children and prepare medicines. The other person took over the first-aid mission at the station, treating the wounded and looking for headaches and fever. At least I can earn some food every day.
An hour later, all members of the team arrived, and Yuan Chongming, as the captain, led the team again.
There were five teams operating with them this time. Three of them had acted with them before when they captured Lu Zuochuan, so they were relatively familiar with them. Each team had a speedboat on the melted water. Go fast.
On the way, they could also see some people diving into the water to salvage things. Obviously, the rapid rise in temperature made them no longer timid and began to come out to look for food. Some brave ones would even intercept them, hoping to take their speedboat. At the temporary station, they even cursed after being rejected. Only when Yuan Chongming took out his pistol did these people stop talking.
"Now that the water level has dropped, as long as you can swim, you can go into the water to fish for food. As long as you are brave, you should be able to persevere. Our mission is important."
The captain of another team said.
According to the coordinates provided by the rescuers, after advancing for another hour, he had to abandon the speedboat because the terrain here was relatively high. After the water level dropped, the ground was exposed, and their location was A famous shantytown in Qimu City.
Looking at the half-collapsed shantytown in front of them, everyone frowned. The place was lifeless, and it didn't look like anyone was alive.
"Captain Lin Yi, are you sure the location provided by the other party is here?"
Yuan Chongming asked.
“This is it! The person who came to report said that he did not hide here during the extremely cold weather, but was in the community we just passed by. He was attacked by rats and was brought here. , This should be the nest of rats."
Captain Lin Yi replied affirmatively.
With a "meow" sound, the whirlwind emerged. It wrinkled its little nose, and then barked again at the ripples.
Everyone also turned their attention to the whirlwind. The military police who had cooperated before knew how powerful the whirlwind was, and also understood the reason why Ripple brought the whirlwind here. They all looked at the whirlwind, wondering what it was going to do.
"Be careful yourself! Just scream when you find the trapped person. If you find something wrong, come back. Don't be brave, you know?"
Ripple is like an old mother, tying a cyclone. Armor, kissed the opponent's little head again, then put the whirlwind on the ground and said:
"Go!"
"Meow!" Tornado called out, flicked his tail, and turned into a black lightning, rushing into the half-collapsed shanty town.
"The whirlwind smelled the smell of rats. He went to lure the rats out. Everyone be prepared to attack. My baby will notify me when he finds the trapped people."
Lianyi explained to the eager eyes.
Yuan Chongming nodded, and was the first to step onto the narrow road in the shanty town, advancing cautiously. The team members kept in formation to keep up, and carefully stepped into the territory of the mutant rat.
A moment later, after the rescue team stepped into the shanty town, they heard the sound of "Zhi Zhi Zhi", which was also mixed with the sound of "Meow".
With a stern look on her face, Lianyi walked directly to the head of the team and said to Yuan Chongming:
"I'll take the lead. You keep a certain distance from me and don't follow too closely!"
" "Okay! Be careful!"
Ripple is loaded with bullets. The reason why his whirlwind is screaming so fast is because the number of rats is too many and beyond his capabilities.
Following the cry of the cyclone, Ripple quickly locked the direction, rushed over with light steps, and kicked open a shaky iron door.
"Cyclone, jump!" Ripple's eyes flashed and he saw the besieged Tornado, and he immediately shouted loudly.
“Meow!”
Tornado responded quickly, gave up the counterattack, and jumped towards the low roof with a kick of his hind legs.
At the same time, the submachine gun in Lianyi's hand rang out, charging directly at the tide of rats besieging the whirlwind.
The screams of "squeak, squeak, squeak" were heard endlessly, and everyone who entered the shantytown later took a breath of cold air when they saw it. Looking at the tide of rats, they also joined the shooting ranks.
"Cyclone, come back!"
When Ripple stopped shooting, everyone behind him also stopped shooting immediately. Don't accidentally hurt Tornado, they can't afford the compensation!
Cyclone has jumped down from the swaying lampshade on the roof, facing the mouse blocking his way with two paws, and then quickly jumped on Ripple's shoulder, meowing non-stop.
“Back!”
Yuan Chongming said immediately.
After everyone exited, Ripple was the last to finish, and he threw a grenade directly into it.
A "bang" explosion blew up the relatively intact shanty. Flying out were the corpses of rats, which looked as big as a gray rat the size of a medium-sized dog. Everyone's brows were furrowed, and everyone looked at each other and became more vigilant.
"Cyclone said that he was besieged by the rats as soon as he entered."
"Has Tornado found the location of the trapped people?"
"It's estimated that it has become the food of rats."
Although Ripple didn't want to say it, the meaning conveyed by Xuanfeng was that there was residual human aura in the room just now, but she only saw white bones.
"His! That's not one or twenty people, but nearly two hundred people!"
Situ Yi was also shocked.
"We have alerted them. You should be prepared. Xuanfeng and I will open the way and take a closer look."
Ripple could only say this.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
Ripple stuffed several small dried fish into Xuanfeng, and then continued to let the little baby start working.
Xuanfeng is also brave. After showing off the dried fish, he took the lead and continued deep into the twists and turns of the old shanty town, with Ripple following closely behind.
After walking less than a hundred meters, the tornado screamed and sent out a warning message.
"Everyone, be careful! The mouse is coming!"
Ripple immediately reminded loudly.
Everyone had their bullets loaded and stared nervously ahead, but the first one to be attacked was the end of the team. A mutant rat surrounded him from behind and bit the shoes of the action team members. After he killed him with a knife , rats dropped down like dumplings on both sides of the road.
These rats had clear goals and spared no one. They wanted to win with numbers, and they instantly swamped the action team, excluding Ripple and Tornado. (End of this chapter)
