There was a long silence.
An Jingtian slowly sat back in his seat, his voice a little hoarse:
"Are you sure?"
"Could it be that Lao Liang made a wrong judgment..."
If you can barely accept it within the second level, one more is just one more.
As long as Team Lin successfully resolves future events, the second-order mutants will only die.
The worst thing is to retreat in time and everyone sticks to the core fortress.
Perhaps the casualties will be even more severe, since it is a speed mutant after all.
But, if it is the third level...
Unimaginable.
Even Team Lin can't fight against Tier 3, right?
Back in the Amoeba Dungeon, Team Lin relied on the Black Dragon to use the Cause and Effect Sequence to barely hold off the third-level monster and get Zhang Tie's arm back.
As the closest people to Lin An, he certainly knew that Black Dragon had fallen into a deep sleep.
Unless...unless Lin An forcefully activates the causal sequence again.
But in that case, Team Lin will most likely lose control...
The difference between the third order and the second order is like a homogeneous change.
Chu An nodded calmly:
"The news can be confirmed and there will be no mistakes."
"I brought the transmission equipment researched by the Weapons Testing Institute to Liang Shaoguang, and he sent back simple pictures."
"The mutant in the frame only captured a white afterimage."
"The speed was so fast that he didn't even realize it was a monster until he saw the corpse left behind by the mutant."
As he spoke, Chu An steadily handed over the picture in front of him:
"The deceased is a member of an unknown force. It seems that he followed the corpse tide."
"After encountering the mutant, everyone died."
In the picture, the corpse with its heart ripped out was unrecognizable, and it looked like it had been tortured with bare hands.
Before Jingtian and others could recover, Chu An continued:
"The situation has come to this, and we can only do our best."
"Maybe the monster's ultimate target may not be us, or even..."
"This mutant may collide with the armored corps of Wangjiang Military Region."
"It's not necessarily all bad."
Pale comfort.
An Jingtian smiled bitterly and sighed.
If the mutant's route is really nearby, then there is a high probability that it will be attracted by the sound of artillery from Long'an Base.
This kind of monster is easily attracted to large amounts of flesh and blood.
After a while, Wen Ya suddenly asked Chu An:
"Have you told Lin An?"
Colonel Chu shook his head and just turned to look at the tide of corpses outside the city:
"no need."
"The only thing he has to do now is to hold on to the core."
"Nothing can compare to this."
"As long as we delay past the time point in future events, there is still hope for everything."
"Talking to him now will only distract him."
"What we have to do is help him share the pressure."
"Once he is informed of these circumstances, it will easily lead to Lin An's judgment being wrong."
After saying that, Chu An stood up and walked to the window of the command room:
"I've told him we're in good hands."
"Mo Ling hasn't taken action yet, the electromagnetic gun can still be used. Even the high-strength steel cables that trap the mutants and the sandworms are useless."
"We can hold it off."
After saying this, Chu An suddenly turned his head and smiled stiffly:
"Believe in Lin An and believe in ourselves."
...
At the core fortress, the area around the closed gate was cleared.
Standing at the highest point of view, Lin An was as motionless as a sculpture.
With his eyes closed and his breathing adjusted, his mental power enveloped a hundred meters in radius, and no movement could escape his perception.
Chu An told him not long ago that he was in good condition.
Let him not worry.
Lin An believed 80% of this.
The core fortress was less than two kilometers away from the city wall. From here, he could hear a lot of movement along the defense line.
Except for the mutants rushing up the city wall at the beginning, the follow-up was indeed solved well.
I couldn't help but feel a little sighing and relieved.
The safe zone that I led and established with my own hands finally took a rough shape.
Under such an offensive of zombies, he managed to defend quite well without taking any action.
Looking at the mostly repaired facilities around him, Lin An couldn't help but smile.
This is his safe zone, the doomsday city that belongs to him and others.
If it weren't for Mo Ling's incident, he would be in a better mood now.
That boy Gao Tian finally lived up to his expectations and took him with him when he had nothing to do. The awakened ones trained by An Jingtian also cooperated well.
Wen Ya is also very hardworking.
Without anything else to do, Lin An couldn't help but think a lot.
It would be great if Zhang Tie was still here.
To be honest, he missed that stupid bear a little bit.
If the solution goes well, Xiong Hanzi will have to be resurrected anyway.
..
At night, the starry sky above our heads was unusually bright.
Under the moonlight.
The deep interior of the core fortress is somewhat quiet.
On the city wall hidden in the shadows, you can vaguely see the rotating warriors.
It's less than an hour until midnight.
There was nothing abnormal, as if the picture Yun Lin predicted did not exist.
Lin An even asked Yun Lin to predict Gao Tian again, but no useful information was obtained.
Of course, you can’t say it’s useless.
To be continued...
