Chapter 11 The Surviving Soldiers

Chapter 11 The Surviving Soldiers

It was a place to store fuel, and the tent smelled of diesel.

As soon as Lin Ye walked in, he saw two soldiers tied to the oil barrel, a man and a woman.

The clothes are the same as the corpses outside, and they should belong to a field army.

Both of their heads were wrapped in black clothes, and their mouths were wrapped with several rounds of tape.

Hearing someone coming in, the two of them sat up straight and became vigilant.

Lin Ye slung the shotgun behind him, pulled out a short knife, stepped forward and cut the ropes around the two men, then took off their clothes and ripped off the tape.

Immediately there was a wail from the tent.

The woman in the back suddenly stood up from the ground and looked at Lin Ye fiercely.

But when she noticed the tactical uniform on the opponent's body, the anger in her eyes instantly decreased a bit:

"Which army are you from?"

"Army?" Lin Ye followed her gaze, and suddenly realized.

Hey, where does he have any troops, he is just a single person, and all the equipment on his body is provided by the military department for free.

In the silence, the woman's scorching gaze made cold sweat break out on his back.

Lin Ye could only cough lightly, and took out a badge from his arms, which is a status symbol of senior military officers and a token of the crisis response team.

He said with a serious expression: "Military secrets must not be leaked, forgive me!"

Not giving the woman a chance to continue asking questions, he gave a military salute with a smile:
"My name is Lin Ye!"

The woman standing opposite obviously didn't believe what he said, but she still responded: "Nan Xiao!"

The man who had been standing behind him also came up at this time.

He gave the military salute and smiled faintly: "Cheng Bei!"

After taking the injured two people out of the tent, Qin Lie stepped forward to bandage their wounds. Lin Ye also asked about the situation at the stronghold:

"What happened here, how did you two get tied up here?"

As soon as this incident was mentioned, Nan Xiao stomped her feet angrily: "We were attacked by survivors!"

After a few minutes of brief narration, Lin Ye finally understood the whole story:
It turned out that there were three regiments stationed in this temporary base, with nearly 5000 people. They defeated the last wave of corpses last night, and they began to prepare to evacuate according to the original plan.

At around three o'clock in the morning, most of the troops had already left, leaving only one battalion in the rear. But at this time, the reconnaissance team that had not returned on time returned.

The group was followed by a group of survivors, 26 in total.

The camp decided to send a small team to evacuate with the survivors first, but this group of unknown people used some method to attract a wave of zombies.

Everyone was sorting out their equipment at that time, and only a small number of people were marking, so the sudden wave of corpses directly crossed the line of defense and rushed into the stronghold.

Nan Xiao's team originally consisted of more than ten people, but most of them died in the breakout.

If the captain hadn't rushed into the group of zombies with a grenade and detonated the oil barrels placed in the stronghold, she and Cheng Bei would not have survived at all.

However, even though they escaped the tide of corpses, the two were still captured by the remaining survivors.

Lin Ye took off his bulletproof helmet and scratched his forehead repeatedly:

"I don't understand this. Those people want to take the stronghold as their own?"

Nan Xiao shook her head and denied it. She told the scene of the torture:
"These people asked us about the evacuation plan of the troops, as well as things related to the inland defense line, but these are confidential, and we don't know it ourselves!"

Hearing this, Lin Ye was shocked.

Evacuation plan?Where did these commoners learn about these things?
He didn't have time to think too much, and immediately rushed back to the camp with a gun, only to find that the number of corpses lying on the ground seemed to have decreased.

There were a few pools of dark red blood on the ground, but at this moment they all turned light yellow and were still evaporating rapidly.

"No, it's impossible!"

Lin Ye stared at the liquid and kept repeating.

This is the first time he has shown such a frightened expression since his rebirth.

Because the civilians who disappeared were neither zombies nor high-level walking zombies, but silicon-based life forms that would only appear in the later stages of the disaster.

Not only can they imitate human appearance, language, and even pure local accents, but even the liquid silicon flowing in their bodies can be temporarily converted into blood-like substances.

Apart from disemboweling it, there is no way to distinguish it in a short period of time.

Moreover, these silicon-based life forms are also the most difficult existences in the doomsday catastrophe.

Although the human federation has specific detection methods, they can still easily penetrate into the core areas of human cities and cause extremely serious damage.

Judging from the current situation, silicon-based life not only appeared in advance of the catastrophe, but also obviously came prepared.

A strange but terrifying thought suddenly slipped through Lin Ye's mind. He stood up slowly, his pupils trembling.

Perhaps these silicon-based creatures did not appear in the later stages of the catastrophe, but came to Blue Star at the beginning of the catastrophe. They have just been dormant in the dark and have not yet shown their fangs.

He thought of the uninterrupted human civil war in the doomsday, and his heart trembled.

Regardless of whether this idea has any basis, Lin Ye didn't care. He quickly tore off the body armor and took out a black miniature satellite phone from the inner pocket of the tactical suit.

Dial the only number above and wait for a few seconds before someone on the other side picks up:
"Project Dawn, Lin Ye!"

"Level [-] emergency!"

"Please conduct a special skin test on all residents entering the defense line in the shortest possible time! The reagent uses a strong alkaline solution. Once the skin is found to be molten, please imprison the relevant subjects immediately!"

A level two emergency indicates spy infiltration, and the situation is particularly serious.

In connection with the behavior of these silicon-based organisms, Lin Ye believes that they have not yet sneaked into the inland defense line, and are still wandering in the blockade area.

The reason why a strong alkaline solution is used as a reagent is because it only causes burns to human skin, but quickly dissolves the body of silicon-based organisms. It is a relatively simple and efficient way to distinguish.

After explaining the situation, the other party gave a simple reply and quickly hung up the phone.

Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief, but he remembered the two soldiers outside the tent, so he quickly walked out with his gun.

At this time, Qin Lie was dressing the wounds of the two people outside.

Lin Ye didn't act aggressively, but leaned forward to observe the wounds of the two, and he was relieved when he saw the solidified dark brown blood scabs.

No matter how disguised silicon-based organisms are, they cannot simulate the human cell structure.

He looked at the two of them and focused his gaze. Their attribute panels appeared in the holographic projection:
【Stranger: Nan Xiao】

【Age: 23】

[Physical: 10]

【Strength: 11】

【Wisdom: 14】

[Command: 7]

[Occupation: None]

[Skills: None at the moment]
.
【Stranger: Cheng Bei】

【Age: 21】

[Physical: 9]

【Strength: 17】

【Wisdom: 10】

[Command: 5]

[Occupation: None]

[Skills: None at the moment]

Not bad, the attributes are also normal. If they are silicon-based creatures that cannot be killed by bullets, their physiques are at least [-] or above.

Lin Ye wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead, and was about to search for other places, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a tall gray-black figure, flashing past among the ruins of the buildings outside the stronghold.

He wanted to catch up, but he didn't expect a strange buzzing sound from around the stronghold, followed by bursts of screams.

Those were the zombies that surrounded them. Judging by the dense sound, their number was comparable to the previous zombie waves.

Lin Ye glanced at the direction in which the silicon-based creature was leaving, spat, then quickly ran to the other three and shouted:
"Get in the car with me!"
