Chapter 18 Getting out of trouble
"Pu" With a muffled sound, Qian Zhuang only felt his left leg numb, as if he was hit by some object, and he no longer felt any sense. His body also lost balance in an instant, and the body on the right, which he habitually stepped out, felt that there was no support point at all. In this way, amid the screams of the surrounding crowd, he rolled down from the side in a crooked manner.
He had no time to think too much, so he instinctively supported the ground with both hands. Then he sat firmly and touched it, and felt a sticky liquid spraying out of his lower body, soaking his entire pair of pants.
"Where are my legs? Where did I go?"
This is the first question that Qian Zhuang thought of.
The answer is given by the eyes. A bright red broken leg lying in a pool of blood, wrapped in the same fabric as his pants, is the best explanation.
The desperate skeleton has been stomped into pieces by people's footsteps. Of course, it also slashed Qian Zhuang's legs hard before it was smashed to pieces. Compared with the two strokes, it was considered dead.
After the body was numb for a brief period of time, it was replaced by severe pain from the depths of the nerves. Excessive blood loss also made Qian Zhuang's face turn pale. An unprecedented cold occupied his body in an instant.
"Uncle Qian!"
Chen Xiaozhu roared and rushed through the crowd, took Qian Zhuang's hands and carried it from the ground. However, he did not notice that the blood from Datan's feet slipped, and both of them fell heavily to the ground.
The skeleton group in the direction of the factory is only ten meters away from the crowd. In a few seconds, they can completely block the factory gate.
Five soldiers, including Lei Cheng, had no time to clone at this time. The skeletons swarmed in with long swords to block all the roads leading to the warehouse. So much so that a tiny gap suddenly appeared between Qian Zhuang and Chen Xiaozhu who were behind and the tail of the team.
"Go away! Hurry!"
Lei Cheng slashed the sword in his hand as if he was crazy. The Gao brothers' machine guns were not many bullets. Chen Zhang and Yan Rui were also obviously exhausted. They were both gasping for breath, desperately blocking more and more skeletons, trying to avoid those blades that could kill people.
"I'll fuck your mom! There are still people here! Help-"
Chen Xiaozhu cried, trying to pull Qian Zhuang up from the pool of blood again. However, the other party's heavy body was too thin to bear. He could only slide down weakly again.
"Pull me! Pull me!"
Qian Zhuang remembered it very clearly that when he fell down, there were a few people around him. But they had no intention of taking him away. Except for Xiaozhu, others seemed to have no idea of seeing their existence at all.
Those soldiers were already out of their way. If they hadn't fought to stop all the monsters there, I'm afraid everyone would have died here.
Thinking of this, Qian Zhuang couldn't help but grit his teeth and blurted out at Chen Xiaozhu: "Go away! Don't worry about me! Let's go!"
"Uncle Qian——"
Xiaozhu held Qian Zhuang's hand again with a crying voice, but was suddenly slapped in the face by the other party. In a while, Lei Cheng, who was behind the palace, saw him without saying anything, grabbed his collar and dragged him out of the factory gate.
A skeleton closest to them saw it and waved the long sword in his hand and was about to slash down. Chen Xiaozhu, whose brain was blank, was already stunned at this time and could not make any resistance. Lei Cheng, who was dragging him out, could not look back and look more. In this way, the sharp blade slashed diagonally and was about to slash Xiaozhu Shang's face with tears.
"Crazy--"
Only a sound of skeleton shattering, the long sword fell from mid-air like it was out of control. When Lei Cheng, who noticed the movement behind him, looked back, Qian Zhuang, who had only one leg left, tried to hold the skeleton's right leg and pulled it away from his body. At the same time, four long swords that pierced from different directions were deeply inserted into Qian Zhuang's dumb body. As a stream of blood pouring from his throat spurted out from his mouth, Qian Zhuang, who was smiling, screamed and fell to the ground, and there was no resurrection...
On the "Nighthawk Type III" armed transport helicopter, a group of relieved people were sitting silently. Apart from the roar of the rotation of the propeller outside the cabin, no other sound could be heard.
Chen Xiaozhu opened his two eyes that seemed to be glorious and stared at the two tired men opposite him. The fists in his hand were so tight that they could not even penetrate their hair. If he didn't vent in this way, he might have jumped over and cut off the other party's neck now.
It was them. If they had reached out to pull a hand at that time, Qian Zhuang would have been disabled, but he would have been able to save his life.
"Actually, they are not wrong."
Lei Cheng, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke: "I know, in your opinion, their actions are indeed very selfish and despicable. However, under such circumstances, the instinct of survival has dominated the absolute will of the human brain. If you want to blame, blame yourself for not having the power to save him!"
It’s not Lei Cheng’s cruel and ruthlessness, but he has seen too many things like this…
Crying, coming from Chen Xiaozhu's cheeks covered by his hands...
"Life well and cherish your life." After a long time, Lei Cheng sighed and patted his shoulder: "Don't let those who are dead feel regretful. Remember, you must live."
This is what the warrant officer at the militia station said before his death. It can also be regarded as a blessing from the dead to the living...
The landing location was still hidden. However, the rescued survivors got off the plane on the ground. An air hull truck that had been waiting there was a long time ago undertaken the task of transporting them again.
Lei Cheng didn't want to ask about the specific whereabouts. Now he was a little impatient to see the damn lieutenant again. Because he once said: Only when he came back alive can he have the qualification to know everything.
The elevator stopped at the bottom of the underground base. Wang Lixiang, who was on the rank of lieutenant, stood in the middle of the entrance gate with his hands on his back. His white face still looked cold and there was no change at all.
Lei Cheng stopped the commotion of the four teammates and saluted him in sequence. This was the most necessary procedure in the army.
"It seems that you are lucky and can still come back alive."
Such sarcasm obviously aroused the anger in people's hearts. Gao Dayong wanted to scold him on the spot, but was stopped by Lei Cheng beside him.
"You said that as long as we come back, we will know everything. I hope you can fulfill your promise."
"Of course!" The lieutenant could not see any emotional fluctuations on his face: "Go and change your clothes first, eat something to rest. I will definitely satisfy your curiosity."
Nearly ten hours have passed since the beginning. Apart from a few high-calorie lozenges, Lei Cheng and others have never eaten anything else. Doing so can maintain physical strength and cause physiological hunger to continuously stimulate the brain to maintain sufficient judgment. However, the numbness caused by stomach peristalsis is a pain that no suppressive drug can relieve.
However, the lieutenant's last words made everyone, including Lei Cheng, lose interest in food. After just returning to their respective rooms and changing them briefly, they couldn't wait to gather in the small conference room where they first met. However, to their surprise, the originally empty room was now filled with various types of weapons and equipment. In addition, the lieutenant standing on the podium with a cold expression, the place looked like a small military exhibition hall.
"What does this mean?" Lei Cheng pointed to a row of guns on the table and asked in confusion.
"If I remember correctly, the question you asked last time was to know where those monsters came from? Right?"
When the lieutenant's answer was inappropriate, Lei Cheng could only nod his head softly. He really didn't understand what the other party meant.
"Forty-six years ago, Dr. Liu Yunren, the greatest scientist of the Federation, accidentally discovered the high-energy fusion element substance SG5903 in an accidental experiment. This is a new element containing a huge amount of active energy. Its appearance completely broke the periodic table of elements formulated by Mendeleev hundreds of years ago and became the first off-the-top element discovery in human history. It was from that time that Dr. Liu Yunren also began to compile the second periodic table based on the research of his predecessors. Since then, SG5903 has become the only code element in this table."
All he said was simply the necessary knowledge that the Federal Ministry of Education now stipulates to every middle school student's physics course. More than ten years ago, Lei Cheng was already familiar with these things. However, none of the five people in the audience spoke. They just listened quietly and carefully to every word they said from the lieutenant.
"In the sixteen years after SG5903, two new elements were discovered, and they also found their place in the second table. Although Dr. Liu Yunren had passed away for four years at that time, this did not affect the gratitude and respect of scientific people all over the world. That year, all members of the Nobel Foundation Federation unanimously decided to give the Science Prize that year as an eternal honor and make an exception to Dr. Liu's widow in recognition of the great contributions made by the doctor to all mankind."
"We all know what you said. I learned about it when I was in elementary school..."
Perhaps because he had not reached the point for a long time, Gao Dayong, who was impatient, muttered a few words dissatisfied. However, Lei Cheng and Yan Rui were glaring at each other fiercely, scaring him so much that he shook back the unfinished words behind him.
"What you know is not the whole thing." The lieutenant did not care about the other party's attitude and continued: "According to the foundation's requirements, the winner must go to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands to receive the prize in person. Otherwise, his qualification for the award will be cancelled. However, under the strong protest of the federal government, the foundation had to change the award ceremony to Beijing for the first time. And the entire award ceremony was absolutely nothing but publicity and could only be carried out in secret."
"Why?" Chen Zhang was a little confused when he heard this. This was completely different from what he knew from textbooks. He clearly recorded that at that time, the history teacher just told him that this award was a common honor for all Asians. That's all.
"It's very simple. The doctor's wife is a spy." The lieutenant's words shocked all the listeners: "At that time, her identity had attracted the attention of national security personnel. It was just that there was no tangible evidence and due to the limitations of the law at that time, she could not take any action against her. She could only cut off all her contact with the outside world in the form of secret supervision. It is precisely because of this that the European Union had to use the method of awarding awards to play the Nobel Prize, a very influential ace, which was in exchange for a chance to meet with her."
"At the cost of the Nobel Prize in Science, she must have met this woman... She must have mastered some extremely important secret in her hands." Lei Cheng murmured.
"You guessed it right." The lieutenant nodded in praise: "In fact, what she has is also the highest secret of the entire Asian Federation - the Second Periodic Table."
"How could it be? Isn't that form completely public?" Yan Rui was a little puzzled.
"The only three known elements are disclosed. In other words, except for the SG5903 first discovered by Dr. Liu, the other two are discovered by non-Asian federal scientists. That is to say..."
"In other words, the table that people know is only a part? Not a complete part?"
"It's totally correct." The lieutenant glanced at Chen Zhang who was a little excited: "Since SG5903 was discovered, all the research results of the doctor have been listed as national first-level secrets. Therefore, except for the second table he published in the form of a paper, there has been no report related to it. Therefore, except for the federal senior management and this woman, no one knows that there are actually twenty-four elements in the order of more than 300 element spaces formulated in the table. This is also the secret that the European Union has to figure out even if it spends the most money."
No one spoke. They were all shocked by this horrifying secret. You should know that being able to discover an element has an incalculable significance for the progress of human civilization. Especially for countries, a large number of new elements being discovered is a huge leap in the overall national strength and social productivity.
"The award ceremony under strict supervision is very simple. To put it bluntly, it is just a superficial form. Before the two parties formally contacted, the security personnel had thoroughly inspected all parts of their bodies from their clothes to the cells in their bodies. They even gave the winners special drugs that disrupted their pronunciation in advance, making it impossible for them to have normal conversations. After finally confirming that there was no way to convey information or communicate, they were held in the heavily guarded Federal Foreign Affairs Office. However, in this situation where there was no chance at all, the European Union still stole what they wanted."
"How is this possible?" Yan Rui was a little surprised.
"Don't say it was you, even the highest officer in charge of security at that time did not expect. The doctor's widow was actually a super spy who had been specially trained. She could use the form of consciousness communication to convey everything she knew to the recipient through brain waves. Although the other party could not understand the meaning, she could remember it firmly and write it into a Script. However, due to her own abilities, her consciousness communication could only take place within a few meters. This is also the most fundamental reason why the European side firmly demanded in person awards."
"What happened later?" Although he didn't understand what the lieutenant said and what was the connection with the monster, Lei Cheng still patiently forced himself to finish the whole story.
"I have to admit that this trick of the European Union was indeed very successful. Just as all the information was about to be fully transmitted, a security personnel with the same ability to communicate consciousness discovered the mystery. Since the award presenter was the King of the Netherlands himself and his identity was too noble, the usual diplomatic regulations were completely invalid. When the abnormality was discovered, the entire ceremony was nearing its end. The king himself was ready to leave the hall. In desperation, the confidential personnel could only turn the anti-laser electromagnetic field power in the Foreign Affairs Hall to the maximum at the fastest speed. With huge external magnetic energy, all brain wave information were offset. The result of this caused all personnel in the hall at that time, including the Federal Prime Minister, to become idiots without exception because of severe shocks in the department."
(Lao Hei has already said too much about firearms. First of all, this is a novel set in 20XX. Secondly, the country that appears in the book does not match reality. Therefore, whether it is the 5.56-caliber AK or the 7.62-caliber MG34, it has nothing to do with reality. Please do not use certain regulations to force it. Explain that this arrangement was intentional by Lao Hei. Everyone knows the current national regulations on culture. If a book is not banned, it is only XXOO to drop something. So, please don’t discuss these small issues in caliber. You should know, are there any other firearms in the book, such as the G180S sniper rifle, in reality? I think Lao Hei is right! I vote for me! I think I am just fart! I smash my vote!)
