Meng Qingxiao pointed to a tall building in the night and said: "Our next target is Qiwang Tower. I just observed it carefully with a telescope. The number of people inside has not changed. There are still 8 mutants, and their abilities are all unknown."
"The environment on Qiwang Tower is relatively complex, mainly because there are too many valuable cultural relics. Even the tree at the door is our protection object, so it is not suitable for large-scale battles. Guns cannot be used. The task of taking down Qiwang Tower can only be carried out by One team will do it, and another team will respond at any time.”
"As for who will go and who will take over, you can discuss it among yourselves and give me the result within three minutes." After Meng Qingxiao finished speaking, he stood up and went to pee. The only girl in the team was sent away because of coma, and he no longer had any Without any scruples, I randomly found a patch of grass and prepared to unzip.
As soon as his urine reached the grass, he saw a thin black shadow suddenly shoot toward the spout of his teapot. Meng Qingxiao was startled. At this time, he had no time to retreat.
Many people must have a life where it is difficult to stop when you are peeing most happily. You will feel like you are climaxing but it was suddenly interrupted.
Meng Qingxiao's hand that was holding the spout of the teapot immediately moved, and then he leaned slightly, narrowly avoiding having to urinate on his hand. At the same time, he also grabbed something, which was a grass root about the thickness of a gel pen refill. , it was very powerful, and it was trying to break free from Meng Qingxiao's hand.
When Meng Qingxiao was grabbing the grass root, his body had turned slightly to the left, so the urine in front of him was very little. It was his own urine anyway, so he didn't care about the dirt. After finally cleaning up the inventory, he immediately took out the flashlight, Go find the source of this grassroots.
After some hard work, Meng Qingxiao finally dug out a plant from the soil. It twisted crazily in his hand like a snake.
Meng Qingxiao looked at this thing and marveled. Thanks to his ex-girlfriend, he knew this grass. It is a kind of weed that is particularly common in Zeng Yuqing's hometown, lark grass.
This is a species that lives in the south. Meng Qingxiao didn't know how it came to the north and was still active in winter.
"Damn it, have we entered the age of mythology? Even a piece of grass has become a spirit." A voice suddenly came from behind, it was Min Keyong.
"Maybe we can really create myths. Aren't the ancient mythological figures in our country all transformed into gods after human beings died?" was Bao Tong's voice.
"Have you watched too much "Feng Shen Bang"?" Li Xiaoguo's voice.
Meng Qingxiao stood up, looked at his capable men, and asked, "Have you discussed it yet?"
"What are we discussing? No one is convinced and everyone wants to go up. In the end, the decision was made by drawing lots." Min Keyong said helplessly, "Bao Tong is the main attack, Xiao Guo is supporting, I take the initiative to take on the task, and our team is responsible for rescuing people."
Li Xiaoguo emphasized: "If someone is injured, you carry him out and you don't take action."
"Very good." Meng Qingxiao nodded, "Min Keyong, go and ask someone to find a bottle for me. I'm going to take it back and study it."
Meng Qingxiao looked at his watch and continued: "It is now nine ten in the evening. I will give you 50 minutes to prepare. The attack will start at ten o'clock and the battle will be over within two hours. Is that okay?"
Bao Tong nodded and said: "No problem, I promise to complete the task before twelve o'clock."
Meng Qingxiao didn't care how Bao Tong and the others were preparing. He played with the lark in his hand with great interest. He had known about global biological mutations for a long time, and had also seen those crazy plants shared by others on the Internet. But this was his first time meeting him.
Soon, Min Ke brought a large drink bottle, Meng Qingxiao took it and stuffed the lark into it.
"Captain, what do you want it for?" Min Keyong asked curiously.
"Aren't you curious, why did a plant suddenly become like this?" Meng Qingxiao asked.
"I was very curious at first, but then I got used to it." Min Keyong said, "There is also a potted plant at home that has mutated and dances around the house all day long. Fortunately, it does not attack people, and now it has become a part of my house. It’s a beautiful scenery that anyone who goes there will have to admire for a long time.”
"I heard that some scientists have cracked the code of part of the pheromone. This thing is like human DNA, containing a lot of genetic information. At the same time, it can also activate a certain kind of DNA that all living things have, and bring it into our bodies. Some hidden ancient genes are stimulated, and then allow us to evolve or mutate." Han Youwei explained, "This is the fundamental reason for global evolution and mutation."
"I believe that as scientists further deepen their research, we can choose to evolve independently in the future, and it will not be a problem to complete the second evolution or even the third evolution in the future."
"What will we become then?" Min Ke asked curiously.
"What else can you become? You are still a human being."
"Oh, I thought I would become a god." Min Keyong said regretfully.
"Didn't someone just say that the ancient gods were actually humans?" Meng Qingxiao said, "Actually, you can think about it from another angle. Maybe the ancient gods were evolved or mutated humans."
"If you think about one of the human ancestors, Fuxi and Nuwa, they were both human with snake tails. Emperor Yan and Chi You both had horns. Only Huangdi Xuanyuan had a normal human body. This explains the problem."
"Captain, your explanation does make some sense." Min Keyong said, "Then it seems that we really may become gods."
Meng Qingxiao shook his head and said, "Whether you can become a god or not depends not on your ability, but on how much you have contributed to mankind."
"All the gods in our Chinese tribe are ordinary mortals who once saved the people from fire and water. Because of their achievements, they were worshiped by future generations and eventually became gods."
"I also want to one day leave a name in history and be remembered by the world forever." Bao Tong said solemnly, clenching his fists.
"Simple, heroes emerge from troubled times, and now it happens to be troubled times. It is the time for you to show your talents." Han Youwei said with a smile, "If you can kill all the mutants in the world, you can become a god immediately. "
Bao Tong stopped answering, but his eyes gradually became firm. He greeted everyone and disappeared into the night with his group.
Han Youwei looked at the direction where Bao Tong disappeared and pondered. He was just joking, but the guy seemed to take it seriously.
"It's almost time. Didn't you take the initiative to accept a mission? Are we going to rescue people?" Meng Qingxiao put down the drink bottle and asked Min Keyong.
"Oh, yes." Min Keyong hurriedly contacted a group of members and prepared to go up the mountain.
At this time, the members of the fourth group had already set off early and arrived outside the gate of Qiwang Tower, and the seventh group, Li Xiaoguo and the others, were almost out of sight.
Meng Qingxiao was still a little worried. He decided to act alone, said hello to Min Keyong and ran up the mountain.
Regardless of his status as a member of a group, he is still the captain. At this time, he is not allowed to stay out of the situation. Even if he does not participate in the battle, he must be on the front line. If an accident occurs, he can rescue him in time.
When Meng Qingxiao ran to Qiwang Tower, fighting had already begun at the door.
Bao Tong still had confidence in his own strength because Meng Qingxiao kept beating him. Until later, Bao Tong's concept changed. He regarded this beating as the captain's special care for him.
They all have infrared telescopes. Even if they are separated by a wall, they can use the body's own temperature to observe the location of the people inside. The mutants do not have any equipment, so it can be said that they have every advantage.
Bao Tong observed that the eight mutants in Qiwang Tower were not just lying around somewhere to rest, but that their positions were quite organized.
They did not stand neatly on the left and right like the human guards. Instead, they seemed to be sitting or lying on the ground casually, but their positions could already explain a lot of problems.
There are two mutants at the entrance of Qiwang Tower. There are two downstairs when you go in, two in the corridor on the second floor, one on the tree in the yard, and one in the room on the second floor.
This is clearly seven guards guarding a person in the room. Doesn't it mean that mutants no longer have normal human thinking? How could this be?
But he didn't say much, he just told everyone on the walkie-talkie to be vigilant.
The two mutants at the door were not standing guard. One was squatting under a thick cypress tree in front of the door, chewing bones, and the other was lying in the corner outside the gate, sleeping soundly.
The mutated man at the door was gnawing loudly. Bao Tong could hear it from a distance. He felt like he was watching a food show, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
Bao Tong gestured to his team members, and he slowly approached the mutant with a stainless steel sword in both hands. His steps were very light, and he stared at the opponent without blinking.
When he was still three steps away from the other party, the joy in his heart could no longer be concealed. However, at this moment, there was a sudden snap under his feet, and Bao Tong's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He couldn't help but glance at his feet, and at the same time, a strange thought flashed through his mind. There were many bones on the ground, and the placement of these bones seemed to contain a certain pattern.
This mutant wasn't eating bones at all, it was grinding its teeth with bones. A large number of bone fragments fell from his mouth. When it heard the noise, it turned its head and looked over, meeting Bao Tong's eyes.
"Holy shit, rat spirit?"
"squeak--"
Before the person who originally wanted to make a sneak attack could take action, the person being attacked had already pounced on him.
The thick claws clawed hard at Bao Tong's face. Bao Tong had a weapon in his hand, so he didn't panic and slashed at the opponent's palm with a knife.
With a bang, sparks flew everywhere, and the mutant's claws slapped away the abalone steel knife, and at the same time he took a small step back.
I can't beat you with a weapon?
Bao Tong was very unconvinced and slashed hard from the upper right to the lower left with his knife. However, the rat spirit was not afraid and waved his hand to slap the steel knife again.
Next, the sound of dang dang continued. Bao Tong had a slight upper hand, but for a moment he was unable to win. His team members took this opportunity to quickly enter the door and prepare to deal with the mutants in the yard.
The door wasn't broken, but it wasn't closed either, saving them a lot of trouble.
When Meng Qingxiao joined the seven groups, Bao Tong still hadn't finished the battle. Although the rat spirit was at a disadvantage and was beaten by Bao Tong, it was very resilient and withstood all Bao Tong's attacks.
Meng Qingxiao looked at it for a while and said: "This rat spirit is not simple. It must have practiced kung fu before it mutated. If Bao Tong didn't have that knife, he wouldn't be its opponent."
"Then should we go over and help?"
"No, you go inside and take a look. I have a bad feeling. This Qiwang Tower is the gateway to Long Live Mountain. The mutants inside may not be that easy to deal with."
"good."
Li Xiaoguo and the others stood up to leave, but were stopped by Meng Qingxiao: "Wait, you guys spread out and climb over the wall to get in. Be careful not to let the mutants inside find you."
"yes."
"If the fourth group is not in danger, you don't need to help. If they are in danger, don't hesitate to shoot directly."
"yes."
"Go." Meng Qingxiao asked them to leave, while he continued to squat and watch Bao Tong fight.
Despite Bao Tong's repeated attempts to harm him, he still liked Bao Tong because he found something in common with Bao Tong, the two of them.
Bao Tong was not willing to live in the shadow of his father. He wanted to be stronger than his father, but he was not interested in politics, so he met a lot of young men in the business world. He wanted to make some achievements in business. .
However, Bao Jiqi had already planned a path for his son. He hoped that Bao Tong would join the army and then enter politics. This was the beginning of the conflict between father and son, and Bao Tong gradually turned into a playboy because of his anger.
Bao Tong's dream was shattered by the outbreak of the mutant disaster. In the current national crisis, the country directly initiated economic control, and there was no way out for business.
In addition, he was forced to join the joint team and met Meng Qingxiao.
In the day-to-day training, Bao Tong trained and endured hardships with many people. Although everyone disagreed with each other on the surface, deep down they established a profound revolutionary friendship. Bao Tong also tasted the influence of the local people during the training. The fun of soldiering.
Being a soldier, enjoying gratification and realizing your own value in battle is also a very good choice, much better than the intrigues in the political circle.
Bao Tong completed his self-transformation.
