After several hours of rushing, the Qingmang team finally returned to the capital base before dark.
"How is this going?"
Qu Xingchi parked the car outside the base, looked at the empty sentry at the door, and asked nervously.
The majestic base gate was closed tightly, and the automatic defense machine guns on the city wall were flashing with red light.
"It's normal. The four major legions are confronting the Zombie King on the front line, and the five major bases will definitely enter a state of preparation for war." Cheng Xiaohe explained to Qu Xingchi.
At this time, a searchlight suddenly turned on, and the white light shone directly on the two cars.
Lin Qingqing, who was sitting in the passenger seat, squinted her eyes in discomfort. Then she opened the car window, stretched out her hand, and held up the special badge of the Qingmang team and shook it at the electronic eye at the door.
In the past, the base gate would have been opened the moment Lin Qingqing showed her identity badge, but it was different today. There was no movement inside for a long time.
Countless weapons were aimed at them, but everyone did not move, waiting patiently.
Ten minutes later, the originally closed base door finally opened.
Lin Xiao walked out and when she saw Lin Qingqing, she said excitedly: "You are finally back!"
"How is the situation on the front line?"
Knowing that the front line was stalling for them, Lin Qingqing rushed back without stopping.
"Not good," Lin Xiao shook his head with a heavy expression, "General Luo has been waiting for you. I will tell you the details on the way back."
Lin Xiao came specifically to pick up the Qingmang team at the entrance of the base. After waiting for three hours, he finally arrived.
After undergoing strict inspection, everyone followed Lin Xiao to the White Tiger Legion's station.
While driving, everyone clearly noticed the difference. The entire base was enveloped in a tense and serious atmosphere. There were almost no pedestrians on the streets. The patrol team responsible for public security must have been dispatched en masse. They could be seen on every street. to their presence.
In addition to patrols, they can also see many special forces teams and many regular army units, and the signs are from which legion they are.
"The four major legions actually mobilized together? Is the situation so serious?"
Lin Qingqing couldn't help but frown. Even the inside of the base was so nervous. How critical was the front line?
"Because the zombie king is going to war with us!"
Lin Xiao's words were like thunder exploding in everyone's hearts, and what they were most worried about happened.
"Is there only the Zombie King?"
There was obvious nervousness in Lin Qingqing's voice.
"Well, there is only the Zombie King at the moment."
The heart that was already in my throat dropped halfway back, but it just hung there.
"Don't be too nervous. The military has already anticipated this situation."
Lin Xiao's words sounded like they were comforting, but Lin Qingqing did not feel relaxed and was still very worried.
Back at the White Tiger Legion, Lin Qingqing went directly to Luo Shaoxiong's office without even returning to her dormitory.
"Report!"
"Enter!"
A strong and powerful voice came. Lin Qingqing opened the door and found that Luo Shaoxiong was talking to someone on the phone.
She stood aside silently, unable to help but guess the identity of the other party.
"...Yes, they have returned to the base safely...Well, I know...Should we start the Xuantian Palace plan now? I understand..."
Lin Qingqing's eyes flashed when she heard the words "Xuantian Palace Project".
——Isn’t this the secret project that Yaxiu participated in the research? What exactly is the Xuantian Palace plan? Is this the "preparation" of the military department that Lin Xiao said?
Luo Shaoxiong quickly arranged the next step of the work. Seeing Lin Qingqing lost in thought, he asked: "You are back. Is the journey going smoothly?"
"Oh, it went well."
Lin Qingqing came to her senses, then took out a box and placed it in front of Luo Shaoxiong.
"This is the crystal core of the fire zombie king. There are two in total.
pellets. "
"It seems that zombie kings are indeed special."
After hearing this, Luo Shaoxiong opened the box and took a look. There were two red crystal cores, one large and one small. Except for the color, they were exactly the same as the previous gold zombie king's crystal cores.
After closing the lid again, Luo Shaoxiong raised his head and looked at Lin Qingqing.
"Didn't you say you killed two zombie kings? Where's the other one?"
Although the zombie cores obtained by the superpower team while doing missions outside can be kept by themselves, the Zombie King is special after all, and the whereabouts of the cores must be explained.
"I brought back the body of the Water Zombie King, and I kept the crystal core for study."
Lin Qingqing's answer was not surprising to Luo Shaoxiong. The three zombie kings were all hunted by the Qingmang team. It stands to reason that they have the right to dispose of the crystal cores of all zombie kings.
but……
"Please don't make any public announcement about this matter for the time being and leave it to me to handle."
After pondering for a moment, Luo Shaoxiong spoke.
The military department is easy to talk to, but the Huaguo Academy of Sciences may be in trouble. Those researchers don't care about the military department's regulations.
Lin Qingqing also understood what Luo Shaoxiong meant. It would be best if the military could come forward to resolve this matter.
After explaining the whereabouts of the crystal core, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but say: "Over there at the front line, do you need us to go there?"
"Are your injuries healed?"
Luo Shaoxiong's rhetorical question made Lin Qingqing stunned for a moment. With Liu Dan here, everyone's injuries must have been healed. Although he has not yet returned to his peak condition, there is still no problem in participating in the battle.
What's more, this is the critical time for the war between humans and the zombie king. As the only special force of the military, they should go to the battlefield.
Seeing that Lin Qingqing was silent, Luo Shaoxiong waved his hand, "Since the injury is not healed, why go to the battlefield? You just stay in the base honestly. I will grant you three months of serious injury recuperation leave. During these three months, you will Don’t go out.".z.
What? Serious injury leave? Three months?
Lin Qingqing's eyes widened in surprise. When Luo Shaoxiong saw that she didn't say anything, he said in a deep voice: "What? You killed two zombie kings. It's already very good without reducing the number of people. Isn't it normal to be seriously injured? Do you still want to jump on the ground alive? The front line is jumping in front of the zombie king? Do you think your life is too long?"
"of course not."
Lin Qingqing also knew that Luo Shaoxiong was right. They were now a thorn in the side of the Zombie King. Let alone jumping around in front of the Zombie King, the Zombie King would definitely kill them immediately as soon as he heard the news that they had left the base.
If it had been in the past, without Luo Shaoxiong's reminder, Lin Qingqing would have taken her teammates to hide away for two or three months in the name of recovering from injuries. But now that they are hiding...is it appropriate?
Lin Qingqing did not hide her thoughts. Seeing this, Luo Shaoxiong snorted and said: "The battle against the Zombie King is the entire Chinese country's business. You cannot just rely on a few people. You have already done what you should do, and you have exceeded your quota. Let’s leave the rest to the four legions.”
"Shouldn't we kill both zombie kings?" Lin Qingqing was still a little worried.
"Why not kill it if you can? Keep it for the New Year? It's not like your style to be so hesitant."
"This is different. I am worried that it will affect the overall situation. After all, I don't know what other plans the military has for Xuantian Palace."
Seeing that Luo Shaoxiong was still thinking about teasing herself, Lin Qingqing relaxed.
"Hey, are you complaining to me?"
Luo Shaoxiong picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then continued: "This is a secret plan of the military. The level of confidentiality is three S. Even I only knew a small part of it a while ago."
"Can you tell me now?" Lin Qingqing was very curious.
"No," Luo Shaoxiong shook his head, "Most of the entire Xuantian Palace plan is still confidential, but you will be able to see a small part soon."
"Is the military confident that it can deal with six zombie kings at once?" Without an answer, Lin Qingqing could only ask from another angle.
"I don't know, I'm responsible this time
It was Ye Lanshan of the Xuanwu Legion who formulated the battle plan. Except for the four marshals, no one knew the full contents of the plan. "
"Ye Lanshan..."
Lin Qingqing felt that she had not heard this name for a long time. She originally thought that he had been promoted because he never appeared, but she did not expect that the other party was secretly planning such a big game behind her back.
"Don't underestimate that boy from the Ye family. Although he is still at the peak of the sixth level, as the only known brain-enhanced superpower, what can he do with his abilities? In this world, except for the old man from the Zhang family, I’m afraid no one knows.”
"Is Mr. Zhang the prophet?"
"Yes, he is the only prophet in our country."
"Only two? The other one...who is it?"
Lin Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. The old mayor of Baishi Town also had this ability. Did Hua Guo also know of his existence?
"There is also Taoist Priest Wuchenzi from Wuji Palace, but he is over a hundred years old and has been practicing meditation on the mountain all year round. By the way, one of his disciples often goes down the mountain. You should know that that is A Taoist Master Qingxu who teaches meditation techniques."
Taoist Priest Qingxu, that old magic stick...ah, no, that old Taoist Priest's master is actually a prophet!
——That means everyone doesn’t know the existence of Mayor Bai Lao right now?
Thinking of the old man who devoted all his energy to the people of the town, Lin Qingqing pursed her lips and suppressed the many emotions in her heart.
"Could it be that Master Qingxu received the prophecy when he came down from the mountain to teach the exercises?"
"Taoist Priest Qingxu indeed said that he came down the mountain on orders from his master."
The meaning was already very clear, Lin Qingqing was thoughtful.
——If Mayor Bai is included, then there will be a total of three prophets in China.
Thinking of what they had predicted, Lin Qingqing's heart moved.
"By the way, do other countries also have prophets?"
"There is currently no relevant news about this."
The military's intelligence has always been accurate, and even if there are only clues, the general possibility can be analyzed. Since Luo Shaoxiong said there was no relevant news, then there is a high probability that there is no news.
So, is it only China that has prophets now?
Lin Qingqing was a little surprised, and at this moment, there was an indescribable emotion in her heart.
——On the entire earth, only China has the largest number of survivors. Only China has established a safe and stable base and knows all the information about the Zombie King in advance. There is also the unique meditation technique that can enhance super powers, and the mysterious "Xuantian Palace Plan" that was implemented from unknown time. Were these all predicted by prophets?
If she hadn't learned the meditation technique before the end, and had not accidentally obtained the piece of tortoise shell that was obviously an antique, Lin Qingqing would have thought that all this was the work of the prophets, who had grasped every thread for mankind. vitality.
But the more information she learned, the more she felt that there was something complicated behind the doomsday.
