Chapter 17 Rescue

Not far from the forest under the purple moon, there is a giant building made of a torrent of steel.

The strange purple moon enveloped the earth, but when it encountered this steel building, it avoided it as if it had consciousness.

This steel building is like a castle, standing quietly on the earth shrouded in the purple moon. Above the castle, several figures are constantly scanning back and forth.

"Please be careful, the purple moon's light is about to reach its peak!"

The speaker was slowly looking down while talking.

He wears steel-like armor, which makes his movements look unusually slow and funny.

Others were also wearing heavy armor, with only their eyes exposed, while other places were covered by thick armor.

"Captain, there seems to be something unusual somewhere." Someone in the crowd who was glancing back and forth suddenly became nervous and pointed at the black shadow not far away.

When the purple moon appears, it is the most dangerous moment, and any abnormalities can cause life crises.

The others suddenly became nervous and looked in the direction he pointed, only to see a dark object lying motionless on the ground under the purple moon.

The leader took out a spotlight, shined it from a distance, and discovered that it was actually a person.

"He seems to still be breathing." A sharp-eyed patrol member saw Xiao Ye's chest rising and falling.

Save or not?

Next, this becomes a problem.

Under the purple moon, there were many dangers, not to mention that the forest behind Xiao Ye was simply a forbidden land.

"Captain, what should we do?"

The patrol members all looked at the captain. As members of a small team, they always obeyed the captain.

The captain hesitated.

To save Xiao Ye, he had to use the lives of his team members as a guarantee. If he didn't save Xiao Ye, he would feel uncomfortable inside.

For a moment, his heart fell into torment.

"Our job is to protect this base, but we can't just ignore death. Everyone, be prepared and come back immediately after rescuing people!"

After a while, the captain's dull voice sounded.

"Yes, Captain!"

Several other people listened and nodded quickly.

"I'll apply for travel permission later, and you go get ready." The captain said to the others.

The captain led several people down the high platform and walked down the long diagonal stairs.

We arrived at the bottom of the Steel Castle.

When we reached the bottom, the captain said: "Others, hurry up and prepare. Xiao Wang will go with me to report."

"Yes, Captain!"

Everyone said in unison and dispersed, leaving only the man named Xiao Liu.

He was wearing heavy armor, which covered him tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

The exposed eyes were filled with uneasiness.

"Let's go. This is your first time to go out with us. You must be careful when you go out later. Don't look at Ziyue. Your eyes are not protected by armor and you cannot withstand Ziyue's radiation."

The team member named Xiao Wang nodded quickly after hearing this and remembered the captain's words firmly in his ears.

The two came to a machine.

"Qi Shi, captain of the Sixth Team of the Patrol Division, applies for a defense change and permission to go out."

The captain stood in front of the machine and said in a deep voice.

There are a total of fifteen teams in the entire base, each with five people. The fifteen teams take turns to change defenses. When encountering special circumstances, you can submit a request for a defense change, and then the base control system will analyze whether to agree to the defense change.

"Please submit the reason for the defense change!"

A cold voice came from the machine.

Qi Shi uploaded the previously recorded images to the system and noted the reasons.

A few seconds later, a cold voice came from the machine again.

"The base system agrees to change the defense. In five minutes, Team 11 will take over your team's patrol mission.

"Please pay attention to safety when you go out. The base wishes you a successful rescue and return."

…

Outside the base, under the purple moon, there was silence.

Qi Shi's team walked quietly on the ground. Even though they were wearing heavy armor, their steps were unusually smooth and quiet.

Xiao Ye's location is actually not far from the base, about more than a thousand meters.

It took the team half an hour to move to Xiao Ye's side.

"Others be alert!

"Xiao Wang, bring the radiation protection armor and put it on him!"

After confirming that Xiao Ye still had signs of life, the captain spoke quickly and glanced at the Ziyue Forest not far away, feeling a little surprised.

After putting on the armor for Xiao Ye, Qi Shi opened the system of Xiao Ye's armor.

All systems of this standard armor are the same, and the high-level armor system can limit low-level armor, even if

Xiao Ye lost himself, and he was able to subdue Xiao Ye through the system.

"When we get back, check immediately to see if he has been radiated by Ziyue."

After finishing, Qi Shi ordered.

"Yes, Captain!"

"The base has not been in contact with the outside world for a long time. I hope he can bring good news." Qi Shi murmured to himself as he stared at Xiao Ye.

Taking Xiao Ye with them, they returned along the original route, but because of taking Xiao Ye with them, the speed was much slower than when they came.

"hidden!"

Qi Shi, who was walking, suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart.

This kind of throbbing came from a well-honed instinct, which made him subconsciously stop the others.

Not far ahead, a figure stood quietly under the purple moon, blocking their way.

"Captain, what exactly is blocking our way?" After avoiding it, Xiao Wang asked with a trembling voice.

"I don't know." Qi Shi suppressed the fear in his heart and whispered: "I only know that it is very scary. Our entire base combined is not enough for him to fight with one hand."

"This is the second time I've seen this thing. It almost destroyed our base back then!"

"Captain, are you talking about that incident three years ago?" Xiao Wang almost exclaimed.

Qi Shi nodded.

"Everyone try not to make any noise. This thing's perception is very poor. The armor blocks our breath. We can't attract it without much movement."

The purple moon in the sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the figure in front seems to be absorbing the light of the purple moon.

Several people held their breath and did not dare to make any sound.

Ten minutes later, the light of the purple moon slowly weakened. The figure seemed to have absorbed enough of the light of the purple moon. The figure moved and disappeared in front of several people.

"do not move!"

Seeing that the others wanted to move, Qi Shi quickly roared in a low voice.

This creature is as cunning as a fox and must be treated with even greater caution.

Sure enough, after a few minutes, not far away, the figure appeared again.

The expressions of the others changed slightly, thankful that Qi Shi's caution saved their lives.

A few minutes later, the figure disappeared again. This time, several people had learned their lesson and did not dare to move.

After waiting for about half an hour, the figure finally stopped appearing.

Qi Shi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced around, and said, "Leave quickly, we can't stay in this place anymore!"
