The eyes of Ma Siyuan and the other two people became alert, and energy surged from their bodies.
Be prepared to face challenges at any time.
Because the monitoring failed, we don't know what is behind this huge steel gate. Therefore, the height is only about two meters so that it can be closed at any time in case of accidents.
When the gates rise.
After seeing the wide underground super highway behind.
Ma Siyuan and the two companions from Shenzhou College who came down with him were stunned for a moment.
"empty?"
Doubt flashed in the eyes of one of them.
Behind this huge iron gate, the road with eighteen underground lanes was actually completely empty.
Where did the tens of millions of people who were controlled by sea beasts block the entrance to Jiangcheng? Where did they go?
Ma Siyuan, who was wearing battle armor, realized something was wrong. He lowered his head and said to the communication microphone pinned to his collar:
"General Long, all the people who were blocking the entrance to the ramp of our Jiangcheng underground highway are gone."
Long Ye, who was on the huge wall of the siege, couldn't help but frown after hearing his words.
"Gone?"
"Yes."
"This is really strange. Could it be that you ran away along the road to other places?"
Long Ye said with doubts in his heart.
When China built the underground super highway project before, in order to ensure the smoothness of transportation lines across the country, all highways were connected to each other. Strictly speaking, they did not pass through the city, but were built like ordinary highways by building ramps.
Let underground super highways connect every city.
Therefore, even if all cities have closed their entrances, people whose consciousness has been controlled can still pass freely on the underground highways.
"General Long, how about I go out to investigate the situation?" Ma Siyuan asked.
He is now an S-level peak awakener, and his two other military school companions are also ordinary S-levels, and they are very confident in their own strength.
Even if we can't deal with so many unconscious people, self-protection and escape are still not a problem.
But Long Ye, who was on the ground wall, thought about it again and again and rejected his proposal.
"No, we don't know the current situation outside the underground highway. It may be risky to leave the city rashly."
Tatsuno said: "You should withdraw first and wait until I report to the superiors."
When Ma Siyuan heard this, although his thoughts still favored going out of the city to investigate the situation, he could only agree.
"Let's go up first."
He waved to his two companions.
Immediately, the giant steel gate at the entrance from the underground highway to the interior of Jiangcheng fell with a bang and closed tightly!
Although Ma Siyuan and Long Ye are of the same rank in terms of military rank, Long Ye is after all a veteran of the military and the commander of the Jiangcheng garrison. In terms of military operations, military students like Ma Siyuan still have to follow Long Ye's orders.
.
At this time, Long Ye on the city wall waved to his officers after letting Ma Siyuan and the others come back.
"Xiao Wang, come here."
This young king's name is Wang Chu. He is about twenty-five or sixty-six years old. He is not very strong and only looks like the peak of C-level. However, he is already a major with two bars and one star on his shoulders and serves as Long Ye's deputy.
"Dragon General."
Wang Chu came over.
Tatsuno whispered to him: "Take a reconnaissance platoon and leave the city through the underground highway to explore the situation outside the city."
When Wang Chu heard this, he understood his general's intention and immediately saluted: "Yes!"
Immediately, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
Long Ye looked at the back of his hands, sighed slightly, and then his expression became serious again.
He can carry a general star on his shoulders in this era of disaster, how can he be an indecisive person?
Tens of millions of people outside the city who were controlled by sea beasts suddenly stopped besieging Jiangcheng and instead disappeared out of thin air. There is no problem here, even ghosts don't believe it!
Long Ye disagreed with Ma Siyuan and three students from the China Military Academy going out of the city to investigate the situation. That was because as a general, he naturally knew that Ma Siyuan's students had extremely amazing talents.
Yu Huaxia, these students are the future!
Even though Chen Feng was protecting them, how could Long Ye let talented people like Ma Siyuan venture out of the city.
The sky is overcast.
Even though it was already past eight o'clock, it was still extremely dark, giving people a depressing and dull feeling.
What is strange is that this kind of depression does not seem to be limited to the soldiers and civilians of Jiangcheng, but to the entire country.
A palpitating feeling seems to have enveloped this eastern land.
...
When Ma Siyuan and his party returned to Long Ye.
But they don't know.
Tatsuno had already dispatched a platoon from his own military headquarters to go out of the city to conduct reconnaissance on their behalf.
At the entrance to the underground highway, in front of the huge steel door.
Wang Chu came here with a reconnaissance platoon of thirty people.
soon.
This huge steel gate rose again to a height of about two meters.
Wang Chu and the scouts rushed out quickly.
They are all equipped with second-generation dark alloy armor, which has a speed bonus function, so they do not need vehicles.
"Class 1 is following me, heading west. Class 2 and Class 3, Li Bing, lead the eastward search along the Jianghang route."
Wang Chu said in a deep voice: "Remember, only reconnaissance along the underground highway, report the situation immediately, don't alert the snake."
"yes!"
Several squad leaders of the reconnaissance platoon said in unison.
Immediately the team split into two groups.
Wang Chu led a group of ten people and began to move quickly toward the west of Jiangcheng Underground Highway, leading to Shudi Mountain City.
The other two squads of twenty scouts were conducting reconnaissance in the east direction.
...
The underground super highway is very wide, with eighteen lanes.
Therefore, even if Wang Chu led ten reconnaissance warriors and traveled quickly along the road, there would be very little movement.
Almost imperceptible.
As they drove at full speed.
Probably less than fifteen minutes had passed.
Wang Chu and others discovered the situation on the 76 section of the underground highway leading to the mountain city.
"Brother Wang, there is a situation ahead!"
One of the scouts lowered his voice and said in a condensed voice.
As soon as Wang Chu raised his hand, all ten soldiers stopped and squatted down.
"I saw it."
He looked solemn at this time.
Because through the night vision function of the dark alloy helmets, they discovered that on the underground road less than two or three kilometers ahead, there were patches of human beings, moving quickly towards the front of the road.
There are so many of them that even the eighteen lanes of the underground highway, such a wide road, are occupied by them.
And these humans are the same people who suddenly disappeared before!
Wang Chu immediately reported in a low voice through the communication system: "General Long, I found those humans controlled by sea beasts on the 76th Highway section in the west. They..."
"They seem to be heading in the direction of the mountain city and Shu land."
After hearing the report, Long Ye from Jiangcheng said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't alert these people, continue to follow, and report any situation at any time."
"yes!"
Wait for the communication to hang up.
Long Ye stood on the city wall, looking up at the gloomy sky with a solemn expression.
The mountain city is connected to Shu, and is also where China's deep rear is located. He has heard before that the wilderness area in the southwest was not very peaceful during this period.
"Strange, why are you going to the southwest?"
Tatsuno frowned, and he was going to report the news to the top team immediately.
