Lin Bufan and others piled the corpses together, took off the communication watches from the corpses, and burned all the corpses with a fire.

The communication watches that were taken off were put into a bag and put in the car to take back.

In this apocalyptic world, this communication watch is a precious item and is usually only worn by important personnel in the Birdcage, except for members of the Survey Corps who are out on missions.

In the past, when the Survey Corps went out on missions, the team leader and commander-in-chief were given communication watches, but this time it was different.

This time, the 20 people sent by Zheng Yumei were all carefully selected elites from the Survey Corps. They were asked to go out to perform a very important mission, so they spent a lot of money and issued communication watches to everyone.

Now that this elite team has encountered an unexpected incident, the reason why Zheng Yumai is so anxious to send people out to search and rescue the wounded has two purposes.

First, Zheng Yuma thought that this elite team had been out for a long time, and they might have actually investigated something by them. Rescue them might be able to tell Zheng Yuma something she wanted to know.

Second, I felt sorry for those communication watches. Zheng Yuyu thought that if the personnel really encountered an accident, they would have to get those communication watches back. After all, looking at the entire birdcage, there are only 120 communication watches, which is still a dead number.

, because Birdcage no longer has the material resources to produce communication watches.

…………

After two hours of repair work by Zuo Yan, the scarred "iron-armored beast" was finally repaired, but it still couldn't start. The reason was that the monster had damaged the oil pipe. Although Zuo Yan repaired the oil pipe, the oil in the tank was still empty.

Still leaked.

"It's over now. There's no more oil. From this, the next task will become even more difficult."

Zuo Yan looked at the "iron-armored beast" that couldn't be started and muttered a complaint.

She is well aware of the important role of the "iron-clad beast".

Without this big steel guy, not only would it be impossible to use the signal searcher in the car to continue searching for the wounded, but the five of them would also lose their transportation tools and habitat. After all, the world outside the birdcage is full of dangers.

Without the big steel guy as a shelter, how long can the five of them survive outside.

And the most important thing right now is to search for the wounded. Not counting the 17 corpses of the team members who were cremated, and the corpse of the team member hanging on the tree to rot, plus the team member who had escaped back to the birdcage, there should be still

One person was not found, but at this critical juncture, the fuel tank of the "Iron-Armored Beast" was empty, which was really annoying.

"Didn't we bring spare oil?" Lin Bufan asked.

Zuo Yan smiled bitterly, "This armored beast can travel more than 2,000 kilometers on a tank of fuel. The fuel tank capacity is so large that I didn't even consider bringing spare fuel. I blame my miscalculation this time and didn't take into account the hidden danger of fuel loss due to damage to the fuel delivery system."

"

In fact, this is no wonder Zuo Yan. The location of the fuel tank of the "Iron Armored Beast" is very secret. It is next to the engine and wrapped in all kinds of parts. If you want to use external force to destroy the fuel tank, you must remove most of the parts of the "Iron Armored Beast".

Damage can achieve this purpose.

This means that before the fuel tank of the "Iron Armored Beast" is destroyed, this big steel guy has already been scrapped. Even if you bring spare fuel, it is in vain. The car is scrapped, so what is the value of spare fuel?

This is the reason why Zuo Yan did not bring any spare fuel.

She would never have thought that the problem that caused the "Iron-clad Beast" to run out of fuel was not a problem with the fuel tank, but a problem with the oil pipeline, and the culprit of this problem turned out to be a monster that could escape from the ground.

In principle, the oil pipeline is safer than the fuel tank. After all, the oil pipeline is located in the chassis. It is extremely difficult to use external force to destroy the oil pipeline. This can only be done by turning the "iron-armored beast" over. Of course, shortcuts are not included. Inside, it's like that monster that can escape from the ground.

Zuo Yan was also taught a deep lesson by this monster that could escape from the ground. It seems that you may encounter any situation when you go out on a mission. You still have to be prepared. Otherwise, you will be like today, obviously bringing With a barrel of spare fuel, the car could run as usual, but she was overconfident and believed too much in the defensive function of the "iron-armored beast" and did not bring a barrel of spare fuel.

"There is no spare fuel, so what should we do next?" Shen Jiayi said in a panic.

Everyone was silent, obviously they haven't come up with a good idea yet.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Shen Jiayi suggested that he quickly use his communication watch to ask for help from Birdcage.

"No." Zuo Yan rejected him immediately, "We have only been out for less than a day and we asked for help from the birdcage. This will undoubtedly add pressure to the birdcage. Besides, we are not in a desperate situation yet."

"This is not a desperate situation. The car can't move. The longer we stay here, the greater the danger. If we don't ask for help, we are asking for death." Shen Jiayi was so emotional that he lost his temper.

Gao Jie advised: "Brother Shen, you should be calmer. Everyone is trying to figure out a solution."

"That's right, it's not the worst situation yet. We must not mess up." Lin Bufan agreed.

He regretted bringing Shen Jia out as soon as he came out. He didn't expect that this person was so timid and would easily collapse when something happened. This kind of behavior could easily make the team become emotional and lose their ability to make correct judgments, thereby greatly reducing their combat effectiveness. .

The two Duan brothers also said:

"You are much older than us, so why are you so timid? Since we have chosen to carry out the mission, we must be prepared to step into trouble at any time."

"That's right, there's nothing to be afraid of. It's just a monster. If it dares to come, I'll fight it to the death."

Seeing that everyone was talking about him, Shen Jia kept silent, fearing that if he continued to say negative things, he would become the target of public criticism.

"I've thought of a way." After thinking hard for a while, Zuo Yan said with a smile on his face: "Previously, the investigation team of 20 people drove a total of five small jeeps. Now we only need to find these five vehicles to get out of the current predicament. .”

"But how do we know where these five cars are parked?" Lin Bufan asked.

Zuo Yan smiled slightly and fiddled with the communication watch on his wrist, "Although the defenses of those five small jeeps are not as strong as the armored beasts, those small jeeps have a special function, that is, each jeep has a positioning signal with the communication watch. With the Internet, as long as those five small jeeps are powered on, the communication watch on my wrist can search for the location of those five small jeeps."

When the others heard this, they all had hopeful smiles on their faces.

Especially Shen Jia smiled happily than anyone else, "Sir Zuo, have you found the location of the jeep now?"

Zuo Yan looked at the communication watch that showed nothing and said: "Not yet. The function of searching for positioning signals of the communication watch is not as good as that of the armored beast. Its search range is relatively small. It can only search for jeep positioning signals within a radius of 1 kilometer. But I It is recommended that we pack our bags first, bring some dry food, and search for the jeep’s positioning signal while walking.”

Seeing that there was nothing they could do, everyone climbed into the armored beast, packed their bags, and then set off on foot.

Zuo Yan acted as a "tour guide" and walked in front, followed by Gao Jie, Lin Bufan, Shen Jiayi, and Duan brothers who volunteered to stop behind to ensure the safety of the rear of the team.

I have to say that these two brothers are indeed brave. Unlike Shen Jia, who only knows how to get high, he is more afraid than anyone else after encountering an encounter.

The people walking forward did not notice at all that there was a huge thing in the green shade on one side. It was very fast, climbing over the lush canopy one after another as if it were walking on flat ground.

…

Been walking for a long time.

It was already close to noon.

Everyone was already sweating profusely.

Zuo Yan asked everyone to sit under a tree to rest, eat some dry food to replenish their strength, and then continued to search for the signal of the jeep.

"As we get older, we lose our physical strength and get tired more easily." Shen Jia leaned under a tree not far from his left face, wiping sweat with his cuffs and taking out a bag of biscuits from his bag. A bottle of water, a mouthful of biscuits and a mouthful of water. I ate it hungrily.

The two Duan brothers sat together under a tree not far to the left of Zuo Yan. They shared the dry food that the other had brought out and ate while talking and laughing. The two brothers had a pretty good relationship.

Lin Bufan and Gao Jie chose to sit under the tree next to Zuo Yan.

Lin Bufan knew this and thoughtfully took out a bottle of water from his bag and handed it to Zuo Yan, "Drink some water."

Zuo Yan glanced at Lin Bufan, took the water unceremoniously, took a sip and said: "I have nothing to do to show my courtesy, what do you want to do?"

Lin Bufan said with a smile: "I just care about Captain Zuo and maintain the relationship between superiors and subordinates. What can I do?"

"Who knows what you are thinking." Zuo Yan took another sip of water.

At this moment, an unknown liquid fell from the tree crown.

It just happened to drip on Zuo Yan's shoulder. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch the liquid on her shoulder. It felt thick and thick. When she put it to her nose and smelled it, it smelled extremely fishy, ​​like the smell emanating from a dead fish.

Before she could figure out what it was.

Another large amount of liquid dripped from the tree crown and hit Zuo Yan's head.

Zuo Yan looked up in confusion and saw a snake head with a beak on the tree crown, spitting out a message and looking at him greedily...
