Just when the girl was about to say something, there was a burst of hurried footsteps. The two looked back and found that it was Qiu Qianjun who was chasing them.
"As expected of a strengthener... he runs so fast..."
Qiu Qianjun had a wry smile on his face. Although he was not as young as Ma Long, he was still somewhat confident in his physical fitness.
But just now, the enhancer named Xu Xiaoxiao mercilessly threw his remaining self-confidence to the ground with a trot-trotting performance, and even rubbed him twice.
"What happened to the injured brothers..."
Although he was filled with emotions, Qiu Qianjun still did not shift his focus elsewhere. The most important thing at the moment was the group of soldiers infected by zombies, to see if they could survive and be successfully immune to the secondary virus.
"Not optimistic, like I thought."
The carriage full of injured people was no longer quiet at this time, and howls and cries for help could be heard constantly.
Although these soldiers were bound by ropes, they still felt uncontrollable fear in their hearts when they saw the people around them turning into zombies one by one.
Becoming a zombie is not scary, what is scary is the process of becoming a zombie and becoming a zombie.
Many people who have not yet become zombies have begun to suffer from mental breakdown. They thought they were the lucky ones chosen by fate, but what they didn't expect was that the outcome was exactly the opposite.
"help me……"
Similar calls for help echoed in the carriage. Although the sound was not loud, the words sounded clear to the ears.
"Are these people really hopeless?"
With the last glimmer of hope in his heart, Qiu Qianjun asked.
He always subconsciously thought that Ma Long and Zhang Jike could completely cure the secondary virus infection. After all, the aspirin was provided by Zhang Jike, and Ma Long and Zhang Jike were in the same rescue team.
To be able to evacuate safely from N City with a few survivors must be knowing some information that the large army does not know.
"I don't know, it depends on fate..."
Ma Long did not give the answer Qiu Qianjun expected. He just closed his eyes tiredly and shook his head.
Although he was not familiar with these infected soldiers, Ma Long did not want to see the moment when they turned into monsters. He could only pray silently in his heart, praying that his judgment was wrong, and praying that the effect of aspirin would be better than expected. Even more magical.
But fate did not listen to the young soldier's prayers.
Two hours later, the carriage originally filled with wounded people had been emptied, and two soldiers silently cleaned the dirt inside the carriage.
The completely zombie-turned-soldiers had been personally killed by their former teammates, and the only ones left were the eight soldiers selected from the wounded at the beginning.
"Wang Xiao and Xiang Yang have woken up. There are no obvious signs of zombie transformation on their bodies. Their body temperatures have returned to normal, and both of them have gained a slight increase in strength..."
"Zhu Zhan, Wang Mingming and Wang Zidan are still in a coma, but their body temperatures have returned to normal and their breathing is stable. They should wake up soon..."
"Hu Tengye, Zhao Zhiqi and Zhao Hang are in the worst condition. All three are in a deep coma, their heart rate and body temperature are higher than normal, and physiological stress reactions may occur at any time..."
A soldier who looked like a military doctor reported word by word the condition of the wounded in the car, which made Qiu Qianjun frown on the side.
"It's been two hours, and only Wang Xiao and Xiang Yang have woken up. The other six are still in a coma, and even have symptoms of high fever that won't go away..."
Although Qiu Qianjun was already mentally prepared
But when the imagined result actually happened, the team leader still felt it was unbearable.
Compared to Qiu Qianjun's worries, Ma Long's face looked much more relaxed.
In his understanding, there are only two results after taking the medicine - becoming infected and becoming a zombie, or becoming immune and becoming a strengthener.
Since the soldiers who had not experienced drowsiness before have been completely infected with zombies.
Then extrapolating from this, the eight people who showed sleepiness reactions have a high probability of being immune to the virus and becoming strengtheners!
"Although there are only two soldiers who have survived and become strengtheners, I believe that the remaining six will wake up soon..."
Ma Long said calmly, with a look in his eyes that Qiu Qianjun couldn't understand.
"The conditions of Zhu Zhan, Wang Mingming and Wang Zidan have stabilized. It seems that they will wake up soon, but Hu Teng and the others..."
At this point, Qiu Qianjun's eyebrows became more solemn.
In fact, he is not selfish. As the leader of a large army, the last thing Qiu Qianjun wants to see is the loss of his own power.
In this apocalyptic world, the only weight that can maintain power is the number of strengtheners in the team.
Xiang Yang and Wang Xiao, who were the first to wake up, were both from Dugupo. Although they only experienced a slight increase in strength, they were both serious enhancers.
This invisibly put a lot of psychological pressure on Qiu Qianjun.
If the remaining six people can successfully become enhancers as Ma Long said, then Qiu Qianjun's position as the team leader will not be shaken.
But if something unexpected happens and the remaining six people don't wake up as scheduled, then the situation will become very bad.
"It'll be fine, don't worry."
Ma Long didn't notice the solemn look on Qiu Qianjun's face. He just gave a symbolic word of comfort, jumped up, and entered the carriage.
He didn't care about the power struggle between Qiu Qianjun and the other two team leaders, because there were more important things to worry about at the moment.
Ma Long did not know Xiang Yang and Wang Xiao, but this did not prevent him from finding each other among the eight people.
Xiang Yang is a slightly fat middle-aged man, with a slightly round face full of confusion.
The moisture at the corner of his mouth showed that he had replenished his fluids, and he was panting and scanning the situation in the car.
The dream he had just experienced and the side effects caused by the virus' strengthening made him feel a little complicated. Xiang Yang desperately wanted to know the answer, but he didn't know where to ask.
At this moment, Ma Long stepped forward and squatted in front of Xiang Yang with a clear purpose.
"Your name is Xiang Yang?"
Without any extra courtesy, Ma Long went straight to the point and asked.
"Ah you are……"
Xiang Yang nodded and frowned slightly.
"My name is Ma Long. I just joined the army yesterday during the day."
After a moment of silence, Xiang Yang asked.
"You just joined the army yesterday? Are you a member of the rescue team that escaped from N City?"
Facing Xiang Yang's inquiry, Ma Long only hesitated for a moment, then nodded and admitted.
"Yes, but please don't be wary. We are all comrades in arms. Unprovoked internal fighting will only consume limited energy."
Hearing Ma Long's reply, a trace of surprise flashed across Xiang Yang's face, but before he could say anything else, Ma Long spoke first.
"You were in a coma just now
Did you have any dreams during the process? "
"Huh? Yes! I was dreaming!"
This time Xiang Yang answered quickly, blurting out almost the moment Ma Long finished asking, and his voice was not deliberately lowered, as if he expressed a strong desire.
However, he soon realized his gaffe and coughed dryly to cover up the embarrassment of the situation.
"What is the content of the dream? Please tell me in detail. This is very important to the army!"
Ma Long was overjoyed when he heard this. He couldn't help but grab the other person's clothes with his hands, and asked excitedly.
"Um, okay..."
Xiang Yang didn't seem to think that Ma Long came here prepared just to ask about the dream he had just had. After being stunned for a while, he nodded in agreement.
"My dream... is not long and very vague..."
In Xiang Yang's memories, complicated and confusing dreams slowly unfolded.
In the dream with unclear details, Xiang Yang seemed to be sent to perform a rescue mission. The time was early in the morning, and the location was a small town that was unfamiliar yet familiar.
The rescue target is a young woman with gray hair and an accent that sounds like she comes from the land of Bashu.
Xiang Yang didn't know the identity of the other party. He only knew that the woman's surname was Wang, and she seemed to be a doctor.
However, in the dream, this endless rescue mission did not succeed, because before Xiang Yang could enter the town to search, his dream was suddenly interrupted.
The reason is that in the dream, he was pierced from the back with some kind of sharp weapon, which caused his consciousness to collapse and he woke up directly back to reality.
"It's just like this, a dream with no beginning or end. If I hadn't had a photo in my hand at that time, I probably wouldn't even know what the rescue target looked like..."
After describing his dream, Xiang Yang muttered and added.
As a soldier, he knew very well that he had never taken on the task of rescuing the female doctor named Wang. His life was filled with only standing guard, patrolling, and endless training.
It is said that what you think about day by day is what you dream about at night. Since you have never done anything related to it, why did you have such a strange dream while you were in a coma?
"A gray-haired female doctor named Wang...a strange uninhabited town..."
Chewing these words over and over again, Ma Long stood up and walked towards the other side without looking back.
There is another awakened soldier there - Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiao is also in his forties, but his face is not as round as Xiang Yang, and with his sparse beard, he looks a bit older.
During the communication between Ma Long and Xiang Yang, this soldier who belonged to the Dugupo camp was not idle and kept listening attentively.
I thought I could get some useful information, but the result was not as expected.
So when Ma Long walked towards him, Wang Xiao's face showed a hint of wariness involuntarily.
"What about you, are you dreaming?"
Squat down and speak.
More direct than before, this time Ma Long didn't even bother to ask the other party's name and stated his purpose straightforwardly.
"I……"
Wang Xiao stared at Ma Long's eyes, trying to see something in his eyes.
But the only thing he could see was himself reflected in the depth.
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xiao shook his head and gave an answer that surprised Ma Long.
"I didn't dream..."
