Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 51: Unit

After setting off the emergency signal flares, Shang Jian Yao and the four of them drove their jeep back to the hill where Black Rat Town was located, and set up camp in a hidden place on the mountainside—so that they could watch the small forest from a high position. , To see if there are relic hunters and wilderness wanderers passing by and approach the cave entrance.

　　 Long Yuehong, who had unloaded the skeletal device and set up the tent, asked in a loud voice:

　　 "Leader, I have something I don't understand."

　　 "What?" Jiang Baimian is happy to answer questions for novices.

　　 Long Yuehong frowned and said:

"Why did those people have to attack Black Rat Town? When they just discovered the ruins of an old world city, they had a simpler way to get more resources. There was no need to attack Black Rat Town, which has relatively sufficient weapons. You Didn’t you say that? Now it’s a special environment where relic hunters and wilderness wanderers can live in peace and even form an alliance. After all, everyone hopes to have more helpers to deal with the hidden dangers in the ruins.”

　　 Jiang Baimian nodded first, then smiled:

　　"Good question.

"But, although the premise is correct, the specific situation still needs to be analyzed in detail. I have read an old world book before, which rigidly apply existing principles, concepts, and situations without analyzing changes, development, and Correspondingly specific behavior is called a'dogmatic' error.

　　"There are two main differences when it comes to the matter of Black Mouse Town:

"First, as we have just analyzed, the attacker team either has at least 30 or more, or has seven or eight core and elite members, with a large number of vassals. Regardless of the possibility, they are absolutely It can be said to be strong, coupled with the weapon configuration and ammunition that can be seen on the spot, it can completely distinguish them from the ordinary relic hunter team and the wilderness wanderer team.

　　"Secondly, as a settlement of second people, Black Rat Town will certainly not explore when a large number of humans flock to the newly discovered city ruins. At most, it can collect intelligence from the outside and cannot be the cannon fodder that the attacker team wants.

　　"Under such a situation, if the attacker team is confident that they can solve the residents of Black Rat Town with little or no damage, and get a lot of resources, then they have every reason to cause such a tragedy.

　　 "In this way, even if the ruins of the city are too dangerous for the attacker team to approach, they will still have enough gains, and there is no need to visit."

　　 Seeing Long Yuehong nodding frequently, Jiang Baimian added:

"Moreover, there are many additional possibilities. For example, because of past encounters, the attacker team is full of hatred for all the sub-persons. They would rather suffer losses than kill them. For example, they are because of Yuelu Station. There was a strange roar from the north, and I came here. I don’t know that a new old-world city ruin was discovered there. For example, Black Rat Town was the first to notice the abnormality due to its location near the area north of Yuelu Station. Someone sent someone to investigate and gained something that made the attacker team willing to take risks."

　　 Long Yuehong's head was dizzy, but he had to admit that the team leader was right.

　　 Under the premise that all aspects of the situation have not been investigated clearly, there are indeed too many possibilities.

　　 Jiang Baimian did not explain any more, looked around, thought for a few seconds and said:

　　 "In the next few days, we two will work in a team and take turns.

　　"The people in the camp are responsible for guarding the jeep and monitoring the cave area, while those who go out investigate whether there are traces of killings or other clues nearby.

　　 "Well, this time, I and Long Yuehong team, Bai Chen and Shang Jian Yao team."

　　 "Why?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

　　 Shang Jian Yao smiled:

　　"Because you are weaker.

　　 "Isn't this obvious?"

　　 "..." Long Yuehong seemed to have been punched but couldn't fight back, and the whole person became a bit awkward.

　　 Indeed, the reason for the re-formation is not difficult to see:

Shang Jianyao showed the abilities and calmness of the awakened, plus the physique, energy, skill and talent of the genetically improved, in the "old tune group", the strength can already be ranked between second and third-nearly Under the distance, he is undoubtedly stronger than Bai Chen, beyond a certain range, Bai Chen, who is good at sniping and experienced, is still a little better than him.

　　 In this way, the team's strongest Jiang Baimian and the weakest Long Yuehong team can not only ensure the survival of the latter more effectively, but also make the strength of the two teams more even.

　　 Hearing Shang Jianyao's ridicule, Jiang Baimian glanced at him, and shook his head helplessly and slightly.

　　 At this time, Bai Chen, who was in charge of guarding the surroundings, interjected:

　　 "Team leader, it's actually unnecessary. I have not used the Jeep in recent days. The solar charging board can charge the spare battery. Don't worry about the exoskeleton device consumes too much power and can't be used at critical moments."

"Yes." Jiang Baimian smiled and said to Long Yuehong, "You continue with the Bai Chen team, and remember to wear the exoskeleton device when you go out. Haha, with this operation, you have become the strongest in the group. , Human, the most important thing is really equipment. I remember an ancient article saying: A gentleman is not a stranger, he is good at things."

　　 Long Yuehong's spirit quickly recovered, only to feel that the team leader's remarks were really reasonable.

　　 Shang Jian Yao cares more about another point:

　　 "Why haven't I learned this ancient prose?"

　　 Bai Chen has never heard of it.

　　 Jiang Baimian recalled:

　　 "Extracurricular readings, extracurricular readings."

Thinking that Jiang Baimian said that he has a biologist father, and this is a D9-level employee who is at least one step away from the management, and the treatment he can get far exceeds his own, Long Yuehong is relieved immediately, and Shang Jian Yao no longer has it. any question.

　　 Jiang Baimian immediately looked up at the sky and determined the position of the sun:

　　 "It's still early, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong stay in the camp and monitor the Black Mouse Town area. Shang Jianyao and I went out to search for a while."

　　 "Yes, team leader!" Long Yuehong and Bai Chen replied loudly at the same time.

　　 Without delay, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian left the shelter and headed to the bottom of the hill.

　　 They were the same as before, each carrying two pistols, and then one carrying an assault rifle and the other carrying a grenade gun.

　　 After coming out of the hill where Black Rat Town is, and coming to the densely vegetation hilly area, Shang Jianyao suddenly spoke:

　　 "Team leader, why do we have to wait for people from the company to come and not take action by ourselves to track down the attackers?"

　　 Jiang Baimian slowed down, turned his body halfway, and said quite directly:

　　 "For your safety."

　　 "We have an exoskeleton device and have enough firepower to deal with the attacker team. It will not be too dangerous." Shang Jianyao said seriously.

　　 Jiang Baimian looked at his eyes and responded calmly:

　　 "I know, you have a breath in your heart."

　　 She paused, and quickly exhaled:

"I have that too.

　　"But in battle, bullets don’t have eyes. They don’t want to be tolerant and avoid you because you are handsome or a novice. On the contrary, they prefer such people.

　　 "Besides, how can you be sure that the attacker team does not have the ability to deal with military exoskeleton devices? They can all get thermobaric bombs, and there are other powerful equipment, I am not surprised at all."

　　 "We can track and reconnaissance first, and after confirming the situation, we will consider whether to attack or not. If things cannot be done, we will withdraw the people waiting for the company." Shang Jian Yao still did not give up.

　　 Jiang Baimian turned around and said as he walked forward:

　　 "Don't talk about tracking and reconnaissance so simply.

　　 "In the Ministry of Security, the staff responsible for reconnaissance is definitely one of the best in the corresponding team.

　　"If you and Long Yuehong have enough experience, then I really want to try it, but now, can you guarantee that you will not be discovered during reconnaissance and will not detonate the battle on the spot?

　　 "In a mature team, it's not that everyone can't make mistakes, but when someone makes a mistake, other members know how to make up for it.

　　 "When Bai Chen and I made a mistake, and you and Long Yuehong can quickly remedy it, our ‘Old Tune Team’ can try something similar."

　　Speaking of this, Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao, who was catching up quickly:

　　"Are you still fighting Long Yuehong just now, want him to lose his confidence, fail the assessment, and withdraw from the ‘old tune group’?

　　"Now you don’t worry that tracking the attacker will endanger him?

　　 "Ah, I see, what you think is that you will wear the exoskeleton device by then, rush into the attacker team, and kill and let Long Yuehong just watch."

　　 While talking, Jiang Baimian laughed:

　　 "Aren't you trying to save all mankind? How can you take such a big risk at this time? If you die on the spot, who will undertake that sacred mission?"

　　 "...Team leader, don't make such a high-sounding greed of life and fear of death." Shang Jianyao was almost taken in.

　　 Then, he said sternly:

　　 "There are latecomers."

"Uh...I don't know if you are joking." Jiang Baimian said instead, "I have to be responsible for you~www.readwn.com~Neither you nor Long Yuehong are married and have not given birth to children. If you die like this, it’s not worth it, haha, it’s not good for the company either."

　　 "Then do you have children? Do you often take risks?" Shang Jian Yao asked hurriedly.

　　 Jiang Baimian glared at this guy:

"No.

"At the time of the unified marriage, I was lying in the hospital and might die at any time. Later, by being a volunteer, I received genetic modification and survived. Hehe, anyway, if you don’t do it, you’re dead. Lucky.

"In the future, because the situation of genetic modification is still unclear, we are not sure what the hidden dangers are. We need further observation and wait for various experiments to give more convincing data, such as genetic stability. Did not participate in the marriage."

　　 Jiang Baimian frowned suddenly:

　　 "What do I and you say about this? Can our situation be the same? Most of the time I am taking risks, and I am still quite sure."

　　 She didn’t want to continue this topic anymore, she turned aside:

　　 "You are because of..."

　　 She pointed to her head:

　　 "That's why you gave up unified marriage?"

　　 Shang Jian Yao answered calmly:

　　 "Although I do have problems in this area..."

　　 Without waiting for him to finish, Jiang Baimian asked amusedly:

　　 "Do you know it yourself?"

　　 Seeing that Yao ignored her, Shang continued:

　　 "But a large part of the usual abnormal performance is actually intentional."
