"Yes, Captain Qiu asked me to call Xiao Xiao over."
Huang Bingtian had long been accustomed to Xu Xiafeng's rough way of speaking, so he casually pulled a chair from the side and sat next to Xu Xiaoxiao.
"Captain Qiu is looking for me? What's going on?"
When the girl saw that the person Huang Bingtian was looking for was herself, she couldn't help but chew faster in her mouth.
"I wanted to ask you something about the circumstances surrounding Dr. Wang and Xiaoran being taken away yesterday."
Huang Bingtian shrugged and conveyed the order accurately.
"They are in the largest conference room below No. 3. You can go there now."
"Okay." The girl nodded obediently and left the recovery room with steady steps.
But Huang Bingtian did not follow him, and still sat on the chair.
Looking at Xu Xiafeng who looked like a rice dumpling on the hospital bed, the soldier said.
"Captain Xu, what did the doctor say?"
"Hmph, I'm guessing there's something wrong with my legs. I'll be fine with other things in just two days."
The exposed single eye glanced away. It seemed that because of Xu Xiaoxiao's departure, Xu Xiafeng's whole person's momentum weakened a lot in an instant.
The previous strong energy actually also contained elements of hard support.
The two were silent.
Probably thinking that Huang Bingtian would not continue speaking, Xu Xiafeng turned his head again and asked.
"How is the situation in Qianxi Village?"
Upon hearing the inquiry, Huang Bingtian's originally somewhat wandering eyes tightened slightly, but then he pretended to be relaxed.
"It's okay, there's no big problem..."
Little did he know that this slight change in expression could not escape Xu Xiafeng's eyes. He snorted coldly and pointed it out bluntly.
"Hmph, don't lie to me, tell the truth!"
Staring at Xu Xiafeng's exposed one eye, Huang Bingtian felt the hairs on his back stand up.
Momentum really won't be reduced at all depending on whether the body is weak or not.
After just a moment of hesitation, Huang Bingtian sighed and spoke.
"Okay, I have to report to you anyway..."
"Hmph, please be brief and don't make long remarks like Lao Bai!"
Xu Xiafeng snorted and swung his two plastered arms slightly, as if he was planning to change into a more comfortable position.
But before he could finish adjusting, news that could be called bad news popped out of Huang Bingtian's mouth.
"To put it simply, there may be general-level zombies in Qianxi Village."
"What?!"
When Xu Xiafeng heard this, he almost rolled off the bed. The arm that was going to be hung on the bandage again slipped to the side and hit the bed board not lightly but not heavily.
"Oh, shit..."
"Hey, I asked you, Captain Xu, why are you so excited..."
When Huang Bingtian saw that Xu Xiafeng had touched the injured area, anxiety suddenly appeared on his originally calm face.
Because Xu Xiafeng was the commander of the Ninth Military Region and the leader of the Siming Mountain Refuge after the disaster broke out, he naturally knew all about mutated zombies.
Among all kinds of mutated zombies with different shapes, what they fear most is not the high-speed moving horse class, nor the infinitely powerful car class, nor the phase class that can fly into the sky against the wind.
After all, these zombies can be eliminated with thermal weapons. If one gun doesn't work, then ten guns will be used.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment of thermal weapons, these scattered mutated zombies were unable to cause a fatal blow to the Siming Mountain Sanctuary.
Xu Xiafeng and the others are afraid of the intelligent general-level zombies!
As far as they know, such mutated zombies are rare in number and have no attack capabilities of their own.
But he has the same wisdom as ordinary people!
And not only that, general-level zombies also have the ability to control other zombies, forming a zombie army, and their threat level has not increased by a factor! "Isn't it because you said there are general-level zombies in Qianxi Village... Damn it, have you entered the village? Tell me exactly what you saw..."
Xu Xiafeng muttered like a demon, even his voice was a little softer.
Through his exposed single eye, Huang Bingtian actually caught a trace of strange emotions.
The leader of the Siming Mountain Refuge.
This fierce man can roar wildly in the face of death!
At this moment, he actually showed fear!
After sorting out his words, Huang Bingtian spoke with some anxiety.
"Actually, we didn't enter the village after we walked around the mountain. We just stayed outside for a while."
"Using this period of time, Captain Qiu activated his abilities several times to try to peek into different futures."
"What's the result? Brother Qiu saw general-level zombies in the village?"
Before Huang Bingtian could finish speaking, Xu Xiafeng rushed to ask.
"That's not true. Captain Qiu didn't find general-level zombies in his prediction."
"Didn't find it? Damn it, that means it didn't happen? You little brat, there's so much inconsistency in what you said..."
Although Xu Xiafeng was rude, the look in his eyes was obviously much more relaxed.
"Where is my inconsistency? I clearly just said 'maybe' there are general-level zombies, but I didn't say 'definitely' exist. Look, I scared you so much..."
Huang Bingtian muttered a complaint.
"Hey - damn you, do you think I'm disabled now and can't deal with you anymore, so I'm not talking about the door?"
Xu Xiafeng stared, pretending to be angry.
Unexpectedly, Huang Bingtian just shrugged and responded without any pressure.
"That's right, who asked you to drill us so hard..."
"I didn't expect that I, Xu Xiafeng, would be like this today. I'd be bullied by a dog when I'm in peace..."
Looking away, Xu Xiafeng sighed exaggeratedly.
"You are not a tiger...the foreign genes in the first stage are just a local dog..." Huang Bingtian muttered softly.
"What the hell are you talking about? Don't forget that I hold grudges very much!"
Probably because he was 'afraid' of 'retaliation' after Xu Xiafeng recovered from his injury, Huang Bingtian immediately brought the topic back on track and asked.
"Uh, it's nothing, Captain Xu, aren't you curious about what Captain Qiu saw in his precognition?"
"Hurry up and tell me, you are like a girl..."
"Captain Qiu saw in his prediction that as long as someone enters the village, a large number of mutated zombies will emerge from the village and attack in the direction of the Siming Mountain shelter!"
"As long as someone enters the village, a large number of mutated zombies will emerge from it?"
Xu Xiafeng repeated it with doubt in his eyes.
"That's right, and according to Captain Qiu, the zombies seen in the premonition are not the kind of easy-to-handle soldier-level zombies. Car-level and horse-level zombies account for the vast majority."
"Is there a specific number?"
"No, Captain Qiu said that the picture he foresaw was not clear, and he could only make a simple judgment based on the shape."
Huang Bingtian shook his head, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
"Damn, there are a lot of mutated zombies nesting in the village, and most of them are car-level and horse-level... It seems that there really are general-level people in Qianxi Village..." Xu Xiafeng murmured.
"Yes, Captain Qiu also speculated this way. After all, only special beings such as general-level zombies can gather mutated zombies together."
"But, aren't there other beings that can gather corpses? For example, mutated creatures or something like that?"
A sudden questioning sound came from behind Huang Bingtian, joining the conversation between the two.
Because the recovery room Xu Xiafeng was in was not a single room, there were three beds in it.
At first, Huang Bingtian didn't notice that there were other injuries on the other side because of the curtain.
Now that the other party interrupted, Huang Bingtian lifted the curtain and looked to the other side.
I saw a man with a square face lying on the bed opposite, looking here with doubtful eyes.
As soon as he caught a glimpse of Huang Bingtian's face, the man's expression immediately became uneasy and he apologized profusely.
"Uh...I'm sorry, Captain Huang, I didn't mean to eavesdrop..."
This square-faced man is none other than Zhao Hang, who went deep into searching for supplies with Xu Xiaoxiao and his group yesterday.
After he was slapped to the ground by the four-armed baboon, he did not wake up halfway. He did not wake up until the convoy returned to the shelter.
Although it was not life-threatening, he had to stay in bed to recuperate because his sternum was broken.
And Xu Xiafeng didn't like living in a special ward with one person per person, so by chance, the two of them were placed in the same ward.
"It doesn't matter, these are not high-level confidentiality matters..."
Xu Xiafeng spoke, dispelling Zhao Hang's concerns.
It was also at this moment that Zhao Hang recognized Xu Xiafeng lying on the bed.
"You...you are Captain Xu? Damn it, why did you become like this..."
Although Zhao Hang was brought by Qiu Qianjun's army, he also knew Xu Xiafeng, the commander of the Ninth Military Region.
The gossip circulating among soldiers has already comprehensively summarized all the characteristics of Xu Xiafeng.
So even though they had only met a few times, Zhao Hang had more than a little admiration for Xu Xiafeng.
Seeing the surprise and respect in the square-faced man's eyes, Xu Xiafeng coughed dryly and turned his head away in embarrassment.
"Ahem, you made a mistake. I'm not Xu Xiafeng. That's not the point..."
"No! You must be Xu Xiafeng! There is no one else with your stature in the Siming Mountain Refuge!"
Zhao Hang obviously didn't understand the meaning of Xu Xiafeng's words, so he raised his voice and tried to express his admiration for this fierce man more clearly.
"Single kill a car-level zombie in the enhancer stage! Only your team, Team Xu, can do this!"
Looking at Zhao Hang, who was dancing and about to fall off the bed with excitement, Huang Bingtian glanced behind him cautiously.
As expected, Xu Xiafeng's eyes already had a strange look.
Huang Bingtian understood immediately that the vindictive Captain Xu was thinking about Zhao Hang.
Silently mourning for Zhao Hang in his heart for a second, Huang Bingtian coughed slightly, interrupting the other party's eloquent explanation.
"What, I remember your name, it's Zhao Hang, right..."
"Hey... Captain Huang, you actually remember me..."
Zhao Hang's attention immediately shifted and he looked at Huang Bingtian with excitement.
Although he was of the physical enhancement type, his military affiliation before the disaster was not in Siming Mountain. He was at most a comrade-in-arms with Huang Bingtian and others, but they were not familiar with each other at all.
After the outbreak of the epidemic, the military ranks in the team were restructured, and many interpersonal relationships also changed.
In such a chaotic environment, the selfishness and greed of human nature are always more exposed than expected.
Strong feelings from the past become distant, and new relationships are quickly formed.
And all of this is based on the word 'strength'.
As an enhancer, it is already a great honor for Zhao Hang to be remembered by the first-level ability person Huang Bingtian.
"Of course I remember you. The injuries on your body were caused when you went out to collect supplies with Xiao Xiao yesterday, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, alas, I am still too useless. I embarrassed Commander Xu yesterday..."
Probably thinking about the fact that he was slapped unconscious by the four-armed baboon yesterday, Zhao Hang lowered his head in shame.
"It's good to be alive."
Huang Bingtian didn't say anything more and offered words of comfort.
"Hmph, back to the topic, boy Zhao Hang, what did you mean by what you said earlier?"
Xu Xiafeng moved his head and turned his gaze to the opposite side again...
