Probably frightened by Huang Bingtian's sudden inquiry, Gao Chenxi took half a step back unconsciously.
"Yes, Zhao Zhiqi reported the situation to Captain Qiu as soon as he came back... By the way, he also brought a woman and a couple. If there are no surprises, they should have passed the inspection by now and their accommodation is being arranged..."
"One less!" Huang Bingtian's face became even more anxious.
"Who is missing?"
Gao Chenxi and Xu Kai spoke at the same time, with a hint of doubt between their brows.
"Hu Tengye! There is still one missing Hu Tengye! Zhao Zhiqi is underground? I want to see him... By the way, who picked him up?"
"I accepted it, but he didn't explain it to me at the time."
Rong Ye raised his hand, and his face instantly became solemn.
"Of course he won't say... No, I have to pick up Brother Hu!"
Huang Bingtian said this and turned around immediately, planning to walk outside. Seeing this, Xu Kai and Gao Chenxi immediately went to pull him away.
"What good can you do if you go now? If you are alone in the dark in the forest, you will probably be dead before you reach the settlement!"
"Then what should we do? All the defense lines of the Four Seasons Settlement have been broken. Do we have to watch Brother Hu die there?!"
Huang Bingtian was very excited as he shook off the two people's pull.
"We have already killed many people! We can't let you die again!"
Xu Kai, who had always been calm, finally couldn't stand it any longer and raised his voice and said harshly.
"Then you just watch Hu Teng die? I sent him out, and I am responsible for him!"
Facing Xu Kai's eyes, Huang Bingtian also roared with his neck thickened.
In fact, it's no wonder that the two captains couldn't control their emotions. Too many things happened recently.
No matter who you are, you will feel overwhelmed by the ups and downs on the line of life and death.
"Okay, okay, it's not that we won't save you, we just want to prevent Captain Huang from committing suicide..."
Gao Chenxi walked between the two of them, pushing one with his left and right hands, trying to calm down the anger between the two.
But at this moment, both Huang Bingtian and Xu Kai subconsciously chose to release their abilities.
Scarlet light particles suddenly overflowed around the two of them, and the powerful force made Gao Chenxi's chest feel tight, and he had the urge to kneel down for a moment.
Rong Ye on the side also felt that something was not right, so he stepped out and prepared to intervene.
However, before he could release his ability, a shout came from the training ground.
"Stop it! What are you doing!"
Several people turned around and saw that Qiu Qianjun, with a livid face, was striding towards them.
"Captain Qiu..."
Duan Yun climbed down from the hanging guard post at some unknown moment, and walked over to meet Qiu Qianjun ahead of several others.
"Duan Yun."
With no intention of talking to Huang Bingtian and others first, Qiu Qianjun looked at Duan Yun and responded lightly.
"How's the situation outside?"
"There is nothing abnormal, there is no zombie group behind our people, not even a zombie can be seen.
"How are the fortifications being reinforced?"
"We are in the process of working, and it is estimated that it will take about an hour to be completed initially. However, looking at the current situation, we should have the conditions to slow down the progress..."
Having said this, Duan Yun glanced at the workers working nearby.
"People have been working continuously for a long time. Should we consider rotating shifts so as not to drain them of their energy all at once?"
When Duan Yun said this, his voice was a bit loud, so not only Qiu Qianjun heard it, but even the workers working not far away also vaguely heard it.
A pair of eagle eyes narrowed slightly, Qiu Qianjun glanced at the workers, then stared meaningfully at Duan Yun for a while, and finally spoke slowly.
"No, continue to reinforce! The temporary retreat of the corpse group does not mean that it will always be safe. We still need to race against time to improve the defense of the shelter as much as possible!"
As soon as these words were spoken, some of the stopped movements in the surrounding areas continued.
It would be false to say that there is no resentment. After all, everyone wants to relax.
But considering the current crisis, no one will stand up to pick on the man in power.
"As you command, Captain Qiu!"
Duan Yun had no objection at all and gave a military salute to Qiu Qianjun very cooperatively.
"What's going on, you guys? Are you a little disappointed that the shelter was not overrun by zombies?"
Looking away from Duan Yun's face, Qiu Qianjun no longer looked at the surrounding people, but spoke directly to Huang Bingtian and others.
"Captain Qiu, Hu Teng is still in the settlement, I'm going to bring him back!" The anxious Huang Bingtian ignored Qiu Qianjun's attitude, pushed Gao Chenxi to the side in front of him, and said.
"Do you really think you can bring him back safely if you go?"
Staring into Huang Bingtian's eyes, Qiu Qianjun's questioning rhythm remained unchanged.
"You will die, because if you die, Hu Teng will die too! You can't save him, but you will harm him!"
At the same time as these words were spoken, Qiu Qianjun's body also erupted with scarlet light particles.
Looking at the light particles spilling into the air, Huang Bingtian's mood gradually calmed down, and in the end there was only worry in his eyes.
"Captain Qiu...please save him..."
"Of course we have to save, but not tonight..."
Qiu Qianjun looked away, and the light around him suddenly shrank.
"There are enough things in the shelter. We need a night to digest and consolidate..."
After saying that, Qiu Qianjun gave Rong Ye a worried look.
The meaning is very simple, stop Huang Bingtian and prevent him from returning to the settlement to look for Hu Tengye.
"But by tomorrow morning, Hu Teng may be dead!"
After hearing Qiu Qianjun's perfunctory instructions, Huang Bingtian became anxious again.
But this time Qiu Qianjun didn't look at him again. Instead, he seemed to ignore him as if he didn't hear him.
He casually recruited two soldiers and walked towards the No. 4 underground shelter.
The night is long and no one feels at ease.
In the following time, tragic roars kept coming from around the dark Siming Mountain, and the ferocious zombies seemed to be fighting non-stop with no intention of stopping.
It is precisely because of this that not only the soldiers on duty were alert, but even the survivors who had reinforced the fortifications were frightened.
Fortunately, one night passed and no mutated zombies attacked the shelter.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Huang Bingtian stepped into the conference room where Qiu Qianjun was sitting.
The purpose is very simple, it is for Hu Tengye's affairs.
Qiu Qianjun, who was lying on the conference table, seemed to have guessed Huang Bingtian's arrival and sighed helplessly.
To be honest, he has actually given up on Hu Tengye.
Compared with the extremely small possibility of survival, he is more willing to save Huang Bingtian's life...
