The night is getting late, and the tide of corpses in the distance is as motionless as the silent sea water.
Lin An listened to Colonel Chu's report with a solemn expression, and then subconsciously looked to the northeast.
The ammunition reserve has dropped by 16%. If this progress continues, the remaining bullets will not even be able to kill ordinary zombies.
During the daytime defense battle, too much ammunition was wasted on laying out the fire network.
Especially the disassembled vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns and firepower platforms, both of which are big consumers.
The characteristics of crushing firepower and high rate of fire in the original design make these weapons powerful in firepower but also extremely consuming.
The only good news is that zombies won't attack again today.
There is no other reason.
According to the analysis of Lin An and Colonel Chu, they should have been the nearly 100,000 zombies that Mo Ling lured away by accident, and they should have belonged to this attack.
But after being led away by Mo Ling, this wave of zombies was like dividing their forces.
Therefore, after losing this batch of zombies.
The speed of clearing zombies at Long'an Base has been accelerated a lot.
Under normal circumstances, they should be in a difficult defensive battle now.
After all, according to the system's judgment, the base's defense strength consists of less than 50 awakened people and more than 2,000 ordinary players.
Two consecutive waves of zombies and mutants were enough for them to drink a pot.
Just like the preparation time for each wave in a tower defense game.
The faster you kill monsters, the more time you have to breathe.
But Lin An didn't feel relaxed at all, and just ordered the soldiers to step up their rotation.
Tomorrow's second wave of attacks is the top priority.
In addition, what made him most uneasy was that Mo Ling never came back.
From morning to now, Yuntian has taken Mo Ling out for a full 12 hours.
Let him take the initiative to initiate communication, and Mo Ling's side seemed to disappear.
Lin An, who had always been calm, even felt anxious at this moment.
Mo Ling's ability is not only the key to the plan, but Little Loli herself is also a team member he values.
If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing unusual about the avatar representing Mo Ling in the savior team, he would have even thought that something had happened to Mo Ling.
"Can't wait any longer..."
The tower was hidden in the night, and the firelight on the city wall was like the bright yellow scales on the dragon.
Just when Lin An was planning to take advantage of the gap in the corpse tide to look for Mo Ling, a tired voice from the team sounded out:
"Lin An, we got rid of the second-order mutant."
"Go back now..."
Hearing the sound, Lin Anxin was stunned, as if a stone had been removed from his head.
However, Xiao Moling's voice was a little heavy.
Yes..Did something happen?
...
95 kilometers northeast of Long'an Base.
A humanoid mecha stumbled through the fields, carefully avoiding the mutants searching for them.
"Go back now?"
Yun Tian asked Mo Ling tiredly. The originally brand-new mecha shell was covered with traces of gunfire.
As soon as they reached the first level, they escaped with two people. They barely escaped from the pursuit of the second level mutants 4 hours ago.
Although there were some disturbances in the operation to disperse the zombie tide, it was still relatively smooth.
"Now..go back."
In the cabin, Mo Ling hesitated but then made up his mind and planned to return to the base.
She thought for a long time and finally decided to tell Lin An.
The scene Yun Lin predicted made her a little desperate, but she couldn't think of a better way.
During this time she thought clearly.
I wanted to stay outside...
What if I can delay the time on the screen by staying outside without returning to the base?
But after much thought, she rejected this "simple" idea.
Not to mention that Lin An would definitely come out to look for her after she hadn't returned home for a long time. Even if she told the truth, Lin An would never agree to her doing so.
What's more, without her ability, the base's defensive pressure will double.
The foreseen scene was something that was bound to happen, and she was afraid that if she delayed it any longer, something unexpected would happen.
After thinking about it, instead of hiding outside, it is better to return to the base to discuss with Lin An.
Maybe with the abilities of Lin An and Colonel Chu, they might be able to find a way to crack it.
In the precognition scene, he entered the psychic core 36 hours later.
10 hours have passed now, which means that the scene in the picture will not happen within 26 hours.
Maybe there is still time, maybe Lin An can find a way.
But no matter how Mo Ling thought about it, she couldn't find a reason why she wanted to destroy the psychic core.
If the mission fails, Lin An will die, and so will she.
Not to mention why she wanted to "commit suicide", just to treat Lin An, she would rather die than let anything happen to Lin An.
"Lin An..."
Mo Ling murmured in confusion.
For the first time, she felt fear.
She was afraid that Lin An would die.
In fact, in Mo Ling's heart, there was one thing she never dared to tell Lin An.
It was during those times in the Amoeba dungeon that she actually thought of committing suicide to transform into the Undead Lord, and then help Lin An complete his mission.
But I didn't expect that at the last moment, Zhang Tie, under the "inducing" of Colonel Chu, snatched the key first.
She originally thought about staying with Lin An for a while longer and then choose the same approach.
Her life was saved by Lin An and Xiong Hanzi, and her sister was also cured by Lin An.
As long as Lin An needs it, she doesn't mind giving it back.
...
Amid the vigilance of the sentries, Yuntian's mecha appeared in everyone's sight.
"came back!"
"They're back!"
As midnight approached, Lin An, who had been waiting for Mo Ling, immediately discovered something unusual about little Loli.
There was no time to think too much. In full view of everyone, he rushed out of the tower and carried the tired Mo Ling out.
After seeing Lin An, Mo Ling didn't speak for a while, and the sadness in his eyes made Lin An's head suddenly sink.
"What happened!?"
"Why did you come back now?"
With concern in his questioning, Lin An couldn't help but think quickly about what happened to make Mo Ling behave like this.
Are there new mutants behind the zombie tide? Or is the number of zombies increasing again?
Unexpectedly.
Yun Lin jumped out of the mecha, looked at Mo Ling who was hugging Lin An tightly, sighed, and said quickly with a complicated expression:
"During the day today."
"When I accidentally activated the skill on Mo Ling, I saw some pictures..."
After hesitating for a moment, Yun Lin described the scene she saw in a deep voice.
Under the detailed description, Lin An instantly understood why Mo Ling behaved like this and why he refused to come back.
Breathing heavily.
He looked at Mo Ling in his arms in disbelief, feeling a little ridiculous.
The army of zombies did not destroy the base, but the ink spirit destroyed the psionic core?
How can this be?
Under the ink-like darkness of the night, Lin An subconsciously turned back to look at the core fortress in the distance.
The core fortress wrapped in darkness looks like a ferocious beast in the night.
