Chapter 124 The Day of Doomsday (Twenty-Seven)
On the way back, Qiao Yuan could still hear a group of people discussing news about God.
When we returned to the small building where we were temporarily staying, we could hear laughter coming from the door of the residential building, which had become relatively quiet at night. Along with vague voices, we could vaguely hear that they were excitedly discussing what they could do after the end of the world.
Because they had to gather at 1 a.m. and had to set out early to get the clothes specially prepared by the deputy captain , after returning to their place of residence, the four of them quickly had a simple meal and then took turns to rest.
Yu Guo really did what he said. When he reached the entrance, he leaned on Qiao Yuan's shoulder and staggered from side to side, as if he was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. "I haven't seen God with my own eyes, so do we have a chance to see God?"
Song Yanchi looked at Yu Guo who was clinging to Qiao Yuan and said impatiently, "Didn't you hear what the deputy captain and Sun Ji said before? We are mainly responsible for the Holy Son and Holy Daughter, as well as Hammos."
The latter is also their main target.
When they went downstairs, the four of them met Liu Dong's companion who had come back to get something. The latter looked tired and experienced, as if he had been through torture. When he saw Qiao Yuan and his group, he was in a trance for a while before he recognized who the people in front of him were.
From the other party, Qiao Yuan learned that Liu Dong had gone to the hospital accompanied by his companions. When asked how he got such a wound, Liu Dong hesitated and mentioned that he might have been attacked by an infected person in the base. Before he said it was his dead neighbor, the doctor immediately called the security team over.
When they heard that Liu Dong might have been attacked by an infected person, the security team members obviously did not believe it. They called a psychologist for Liu Dong and turned to question Jia Xue and another companion. They obviously felt that the incident was caused by human factors and that these two people were more suspicious.
Especially when they found that Liu Dong and others had registered four people, but there were only three people present, the security team members immediately asked to contact the absent companion.
However, the missing companion had already turned into spring mud to protect the flowers. In order to prevent the fact that they killed their companion from being discovered, and because they had not rested well and were repeatedly interrogated, the three of them were almost arrested as mentally ill people who might endanger the base. In the end, they could only blame everything on the missing companion, saying that he must have done it, and this successfully drew the attention of the other party to the companion.
It was not until just now that Liu Dong's companion was released, and Jia Xue was in the hospital with Liu Dong who was hospitalized because of an arm injury.
Although more than ten minutes had passed since he was interrogated, he still couldn't help complaining when he thought about what happened just now: "I give up. How could a person bite a wound like that..."
Happiness comes from comparison. After listening to the other party's experience, Qiao Yuan felt that compared with Liu Dong and others, she was still much luckier.
However, I really can’t mention the infected people to the security team. They won’t believe it at all. Instead, I’m more likely to be arrested as a mental patient.
The four of them arrived at the security team's building in advance and saw Sun Ji and his group.
Sun Ji had already taken several sets of clothes from the deputy captain and distributed them to several people.
After putting on the bulletproof vest, Qiao Yuan felt that his body safety index seemed to have increased.
Yu Guo looked around in confusion: "Why don't they have guns? I see other security guards have guns."
Sun Ji: "I heard that they didn't carry guns this time because they felt it was unnecessary and might even upset the gods."
Qiao Yuan didn't care about it. Her shooting skills were not good to begin with, and the fact that no one had a gun was actually an advantage for her.
Hearing Sun Ji's words, Yu Guo looked disappointed. He made a gun gesture with his hand and waved it towards everyone.
Because Yu Guo's personality was lively and somewhat arbitrary, most people ignored him except Song Yanchi frowning and saying "What are you doing?"
Qiao Yuan also looked indifferent, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said to the system: "She is pointing at me."
"It looks like he wants to kill me."
Although Yu Guo moved quickly, she still felt that the muzzle of the gun in the other party's hand paused when it fell on her, aimed at her eyebrows, and revealed excited murderous intent in his eyes.
The system didn't know why Qiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief: [You are not afraid of death]
Unexpectedly, the copy still changed Qiao Yuan.
Qiao Yuan: "? Of course I am afraid, but she hasn't made a move yet. It must be because she is considering or waiting for something. We can still get along peacefully for a while."
system:【……】
It turned out that this was what Qiao was willing to be relieved about.
By the time they changed their clothes and came out, more than a dozen people had already arrived at the door, and including Qiao Yuan and others, there were more than twenty people in total.
In order not to attract too much attention, Sun Ji and Qiao Yuan and his group stood in the middle first.
After a while, a man who looked to be in his thirties or forties came and attracted the attention of many people present.
He was estimated to be nearly two meters tall, with a beard on his chin. He was strong and stern, with deep facial features. He seemed to be mixed-race, and had a stern and cruel temperament.
Qiao Yuan guessed that the other party might have been a mercenary before the end of the world, and if you look closely, you can find some mysterious bulges on his body, which means he must be hiding something else.
Qiao Yuan conservatively guessed that in addition to the gun on his back, the other party also had at least four daggers and two pistols hidden on his body.
Asking means having experience.
They were not allowed to bring weapons, but they brought a lot of them...
Qiao Yuan didn't know whether this was the other party's habit as a mercenary, but it didn't matter. She had already noted where the other party hid these things on his body. Whenever there was a need, Anthony would be her personal arsenal.
Sun Ji lowered his voice and introduced to Qiao Yuan and others that this was Anthony, the captain of the security team, and the person who had been with Hammos the longest besides the Son of God and the Holy Daughter.
I heard that when the base was first established and the exiled residents were being taken in, there were some people with bad ambitions who wanted to kill Hammos and occupy the base, but they were all dealt with by Anthony. After killing the chicken to scare the monkey, the others also put away their thoughts. With the increase in people and the establishment of a security team, the order that had collapsed with the advent of doomsday was finally rebuilt in the base. He could be regarded as the second in command of the base, along with the Son and Daughter of Saints.
He couldn't continue the introduction. Although he had controlled his volume when introducing Qiao Yuan and was standing in the back row, he was still noticed by Anthony. The other party didn't call him by name, but just looked at him with a hawk-like gaze and said "Quiet" in a stern voice.
Sun Ji did not like the tone of being commanded, but he had to endure it for the sake of the mission.
Because the recruitment and arrangement of team members were all handled by the deputy captain, and there were several subgroups under the security team, Anthony did not notice the team member who had just joined the security team standing in the back row, and the other team members thought that Qiao Yuan and others were from other groups.
After briefly scanning the crowd, Anthony asked everyone to follow him, and then led everyone in one direction.
Qiao Yuan could feel that except for the players, the team members were all nervous and excited. Many of them had been in the base for a while and had been longing for God because of what they had seen and heard, not to mention that the other party had really arrived.
Qiao Yuan also heard the team members standing in front of them whispering, discussing whether they could be the first to see God while being next to Hammos, but they were quickly interrupted by Anthony.
There were not many people on the streets of the base at one o'clock in the morning. Only a group of people followed Anthony and walked forward in silence.
Qiao Yuan watched them pass by the holy land and finally stopped at a duplex housing area not far from the holy land.
There are not many duplex villas in the base, and most of them are provided to those who have made significant contributions to the construction of the base or those who first accompanied Hammos to establish the base. There are security guards outside, but these security guards obviously know Anthony, so they let him in respectfully.
Qiao Yuan had learned from both the base and Sun Ji that although Hamos's address was public, he had other secret places. When the other party announced that he could not show up due to something, he usually went to that place. In order to avoid being found, only a few people close to him knew about it.
But those people are also difficult to contact, otherwise players would have already knocked on their door, and Sun Ji would not have started thinking about committing crimes.
The structures of these duplex houses are the same, and it is easy to be dazzled after looking at them for a long time. However, Anthony walked into one of the villas with familiarity. There were all kinds of things in it, but it looked like no one had lived there for a long time. Anthony went straight to the corridor and pressed something. The wall opened to both sides, revealing a downward passage.
The width of the passage seemed to be able to accommodate two people at the same time. Anthony walked in front, and the others followed behind him in pairs.
When the last person stepped into the passage, the walls on both sides closed again. However, there was a row of lights above the passage, which were not very bright, but enough to illuminate the way in the passage.
Qiao Yuan kept looking around with his peripheral vision. Judging from the traces of corrosion on the wall, this passage seemed to have existed longer than the base. There were dark spots at the angles of several steps.
It's a bit like blood that has solidified over time.
Qiao Yuan wanted to see clearly, but since there were people behind her, it would be too conspicuous if she stopped now, so she could only keep moving forward.
Because of Anthony's previous interruptions, everyone was very quiet when they walked down. For a while, there was only the dull sound of footsteps and someone's nervous breathing.
This staircase was much longer than the group had imagined. After about ten minutes of walking, Anthony, who was walking in the front, finally stopped. His deep voice could be heard from the front to the back without the need for a microphone: "We're here."
When seeing the scene before their eyes, many people present couldn't help but be stunned, and some even let out a short exclamation.
Before, Qiao Yuan thought that this base had very few religious elements except for the countless golden eyes on the exterior of the buildings and the existence of holy places. However, it was not until she arrived here that she realized that these religious elements were concentrated in this large underground base.
