Chapter 106 There is no turning back
Something is not right...
In theory, when Shen Bei revealed his identity, the man he kidnapped should shake hands with him, not to mention calling him comrade, but he should stop struggling and obey the next command. ,
However, the fact is that it would be fine if he didn't reveal his identity.
Once he revealed his identity, the man struggled even harder, like a fish on the shore or a pig on New Year's Eve.
Is the target of this mission seriously ill? Shen Bei thought.
At this moment.
A man suddenly walked out of the bushes not far from the two of them.
Shen Bei looked up instantly.
He was dumbfounded.
This was a skinny young man with messy gray hair, ordinary looks, and a somewhat dull look.
An ordinary man.
But what surprised Shen Bei was that this man also had a white cloth band wrapped around his left wrist!
Shen Bei was stunned.
He had a mission target in his hand, and now another one jumped out!
Shen Bei asked in a deep voice: "What's your name?"
The man opposite answered truthfully: "Niu——"
Before the man finished speaking, Shen Bei only heard one word.
Without any hesitation, he decisively grasped the hostage's head with both hands and twisted it hard.
With a click.
The hostage's head was twisted half a circle.
The hostage rolled his eyes instantly and died.
"——Mon Ben."
"Very good."
Shen Bei dropped the body and pressed his hand: "I'm looking for you. Let me introduce you, Shen Bei from Shelter No. 36."
Niu Ben seemed not to hear it, staring at the body, his mouth full of disbelief and a little dissatisfaction: "Why did you kill him? He is innocent!"
Shen Bei squatted down and untied the white cloth band on the left wrist of the body.
A blood mark scraped by a branch or other sharp weapon.
Well, so he was bandaging his wounds...
Shen Bei stood up and said expressionlessly: "If I don't kill him, this person will go back and tip off the enemy. Can we still escape?"
"Whirl or not is your business. What's wrong with him?" Niu Ben argued angrily.
Hua La~~
Shen Bei took out his pistol and pointed it at Niu Ben's forehead. His eyes were indifferent and ruthless, and there was a faint chill emanating from his body. He said coldly: "My mission is to escort you back to Shelter No. 36, not to pay for your ridiculous kindness and reluctance!"
"Remember this, I will ruthlessly abandon and obliterate anything that affects my life, including yourself!"
"From now on, please remember that even if you are a guest of You Wuchang, in my eyes, you are no different from the beasts in the wilderness."
"Control your emotions. I hate people chattering."
After that, Shen Bei began to check his equipment for the last time.
Niu Ben seemed to be frightened by Shen Bei's words. He trembled all over, stood still, and remained silent.
After just a few seconds.
Shen Bei glanced at the time and pulled Niu Ben to the southeast.
Because they had to avoid other people in the dense forest, the two walked slowly.
Niu Ben couldn't help asking: "Why are you alone? Where are the others?"
Shen Bei whispered: "It's not that I don't respect you, but on the way here, some unpredictable situations occurred, and I am the only one left to take you back."
As soon as these words came out, Niu Ben paused, his face pale and sad.
His eyes were full of unresolved sorrow: "If you do this, I can't imagine whether I can walk to Shelter No. 36 alive. You go back, I regret it and I won't go."
Shen Bei can understand Niu Ben's mood.
Logically speaking, for this kind of action of prying the wall, the more people the better.
In fact, Rock also arranged it this way.
The team is full of superpowers.
It is much stronger than the formation of a bunch of ordinary people who were pulled out during the defection of Shelter No. 20.
Now, Shen Bei is the only one left to complete the mission, and he has to cross the vast wilderness.
Even if he is not chased by Shelter No. 1, there are endless beasts blocking the road.
He might die on the spot.
But it is useless to say anything now.
It is not that Niu Ben wants to regret it.
Shen Bei said calmly: "I don't want to point a gun at your head. If you don't realize it, I will either kill you on the spot or you will follow me. Anyway, I can't come here in vain."
A trace of fear flashed in Niu Ben's eyes.
Although he is a researcher at the Institute of Life Research, he is essentially just a little smarter than others.
In terms of body, he is still an ordinary person.
Not to mention a ghost like Shen Bei who has killed people along the way.
Even an ordinary person with a broken pistol can shoot through his head.
Niu Ben sighed heavily and followed Shen Bei silently.
While observing the God's perspective, Shen Bei spoke again: "I see that you are not young anymore. There are some truths that I don't want to say more, but you must know that you will pay the price for your actions."
"Since you have chosen to defect, don't hesitate. If you keep going all the way to the end, you will see the light. Believe me, I am a lone walker in the wilderness, and I will definitely take you back to Shelter 36."
Shen Bei is also hitting a stick and then giving a sweet date.
He had to do this, and he had to give Niu Ben some face.
Enter the second half of the mission.
To put it bluntly, it is to escape.
This requires Niu Ben to stay excited, without any hesitation, and constantly squeeze his potential.
Otherwise, once he encounters danger, he will hesitate whether to go back.
That is the real danger.
Shen Bei can take care of himself, but he may not be able to protect Niu Ben in the ever-changing wilderness.
So, most of the time, he has to rely on himself to run for his life.
Gradually.
The two touched the edge of the southeast corner of the dense forest.
Shen Bei pressed Niu Ben's body and squatted in the grass.
Shen Bei raised his head, used the armor to enlarge his vision, and looked around.
At nine o'clock, about five kilometers away, there were two teams of people provoking each other and chasing each other.
If I guessed correctly, it should be Team A led by Ming Zhongshui who attracted the attention of Shelter No. 1 in the front.
Generally speaking, this situation will not cause too much conflict between the two sides.
After all, everyone is in the wilderness, and when people from several shelters meet, there is no big hatred, and they will not risk their lives.
At most, they will curse a few words, fire a few shots tentatively, and show off their power.
As for the direction of Team B, that route must not be taken.
I don’t know who attracted the hatred and made them fight.
Now the situation is favorable to Shen Bei.
Team A and Team B have successfully attracted attention.
The possibility of his side being noticed is very small.
He looked at the time.
There are still five minutes before the alarm clock explodes.
Shen Bei took a deep breath and pointed to the outside of the dense forest and said: "Do you see the gully two kilometers ahead?"
Niu Ben nodded.
Shen Bei patted his shoulder: "I don't know what You Wuchang promised you, but it must be worth your rush. Now, take your first step, crawl forward, don't run, crawl close to the ground into the gully, I will cover you."
Niu Ben's face immediately showed a look of surprise.
In his opinion, a distance of two kilometers, let alone crawling forward, even running is tiring!
This is definitely a huge test of physical strength for himself.
"Aren't you coming with me?" Niu Ben asked in surprise.
Shen Bei shook his head: "I don't want to explain too much about some tactical issues. Just listen to me."
"I'll teach you the correct crouching posture. First, stretch your right hand forward, support the ground with your palm, and then follow with your left hand. Then bend your right leg, push your knee against the ground, and then follow with your left leg. Move your hands and feet forward alternately, and pay attention to maintaining the continuity and coordination of your body."
As he spoke, Shen Bei took out oil paint and applied it on his face and hands.
Niu Ben's clothes were khaki, which was close to the soil layer outside the dense forest.
Shen Bei grabbed a few more handfuls of soil and sprinkled them on Niu Ben, covering some of the dazzling colors, and continued:
"If you get tired in the middle, you can rest for a while. Pay attention to your breathing rhythm and keep your mind. With me, you are safe."
Niu Ben hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, lay on the ground, and began to crawl forward.
Shen Bei asked, "Your bag is in the way."
Niu Ben turned around and said, "You don't understand the value of it."
"Okay, go on." Shen Bei shrugged.
Then, Shen Bei began to move southwest.
He stopped at about one thousand meters.
This distance is in the middle of the off-road vehicle and the straight line of Niu Ben's crawling.
It can not only confuse the enemy's sense of direction, but also ensure that Niu Ben's every move is always watched.
Of course, the ideal situation is that no one notices the abnormality here.
If discovered, Shen Bei needs to lure the enemy towards the off-road vehicle.
Time passed slowly.
Shen Bei squatted on the tree, motionless like a sculpture.
He didn't even need to look back to grasp the situation on Niu Ben's side.
The cluster firepower flying disc was moving silently and stealthily above Niu Ben.
At this time, Niu Ben was lying on the ground and panting violently.
Shen Bei couldn't help but sigh.
A researcher, who was exhausted from the very beginning...
However, for the return journey, this was just an appetizer.
Shen Bei glanced at the red forest again.
Suddenly.
His armor's loudspeaker system heard a faint shout:
"Damn it! Third sister was killed! Her body was buried under the leaves!"
"Enemy attack! Gather together!"
"Count, see who is missing!"
"Li Er!"
"Here!"
"Fat Three!"
"Here!"
"Niu Liu! Niu Ben, Niu Liu?"
"Where is he? Where is he!"
"Come on, search, damn it, hurry up, hurry up, he is a member of the research institute! Speed!"
"Load all the guns, spread out in a straight line, push forward, and move quickly!"
...
After hearing the voice, Shen Bei slowly opened his eyes as if a ghost had been awakened.
The muzzle of the sniper rifle slowly lifted up.
It was as if the steel was endowed with a fierce soul, exuding a dead silence.
Shen Bei quickly turned the muzzle of the gun and fired a shot directly in the direction of Niu Ben!
