Chapter 98 Poor Man

dong dong dong~

"report!"

Gu Chengyuan had just fallen asleep when he heard Pu Guangqiang knocking on the door.

"Enter!"

Gu Chengyuan turned on the light and sat up.

Teachers and students of the School of Mechanical Engineering have just built a large generator set, and now the entire military building has electricity supply 24 hours a day.

"Reporting to the commander, a survivor just came downstairs and said that his son was eaten by a monster while fishing in Yue Lake."

"Yuehu?"

"monster?"

When he heard the word Yue Lake, Gu Chengyuan immediately thought of the artificial lake in front of the library.

The scenery is beautiful and the view is broad. Groups of ducks working on the senior's graduation projects often roam the lake. There are also rows of willow trees planted along the lake. Before the end of the world, he liked to go there to stare blankly and enjoy the scenery.

I heard that there are fish, shrimps and crabs raised by the Agricultural College in Yue Lake. Could it be that these fish and shrimps have mutated in the apocalypse?

Although he was somewhat surprised, Gu Chengyuan did not feel too shaken. The army under his command made him as stable as a rock.

"What's going on now?"

"Captain Li Kun, who was on combat duty at the military headquarters today, has led his men over there, but there is no news yet."

呲味味~

"Duty room! Duty room! I'm Li Kun! I'm Li Kun! Please answer if you hear me!"

Speak of the devil, and suddenly Li Kun's loud voice came from Pu Guangqiang's intercom.

Gu Chengyuan took the intercom and pressed the talk button.

"Li Kun! Li Kun! I'm Gu Chengyuan. What's the situation now?"

When he heard that it was Gu Chengyuan, Li Kun's tone changed and he immediately became respectful.

"Reporting to the commander, our armored infantry company has arrived at the scene and has blocked off Yue Lake. No abnormalities have been found so far. Please give us your instructions!"

As Li Kun spoke, his eyes kept searching the lake in front of him, his expression full of vigilance.

I was thinking about how to set up the firepower points and how to maximize the firepower advantage of the entire company.

Just now, on the way here, he had already checked with Zhao Qiliang. If the other party was not exaggerating, then the monster in Yue Lake was indeed not simple!

It is half a meter thick and ten meters long. It would be considered a giant no matter where it is placed. Moreover, according to the other party's description, it seems to be a mutant monster. Li Kun cannot help but treat it with caution.

After Li Kun finished reporting what he knew through the intercom, Gu Chengyuan thought for a moment and then gave the order:

"Li Kun, I order your troops to focus on blockade, make sure the monster is in the lake and doesn't let it escape. How to deal with it, wait until dawn to make plans!"

"Yes!"

Li Kun breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the order to block the area. Although it could be handled at night, the risk would undoubtedly be much higher.

While completing the mission is important, he is also responsible for the soldiers under his command.

After all, the visibility is so poor at night and the monster is in the water, so casualties could occur if you are not careful.

"Attention all armored infantry companies, the combat mission tonight is cancelled. Retreat to a safe location. Each platoon should keep guards in their respective security areas, and the rest of the people should rest where they are."

Zhao Qiliang, who was standing nearby, was anxious when he heard Li Kun's order.

"Sir! Sir! Please save my son!"

"He's still young! He's the only child in our Zhao family, and we've protected him like a treasure since he was little."

"Now he is in danger, and his life or death is uncertain. How can you rest?"

Looking at the crying Zhao Qiliang, Li Kun not only did not feel empathy, but became angry instead.

"Hey! You fucking bastard!"

"The only one! The only one, what the hell? His life or death is still unknown. Don't you know whether he is dead or not?"

"You said it, Old Deng!"

"I was dragged down by the monster for half an hour. I pulled it out quickly!"

"I say you two are really talented!"

"You didn't even bother to do your job safely at the gathering place, but came here in the middle of the night to get yourself killed. Now you want my soldiers to risk their lives for you?"

"I tell you, there is no such good thing in the world!"

"If it wasn't for our old Li Siwen, who felt sorry for you because your son just died, if it was that brat Lu Chong, I would have slapped you a few times today!"

"Get out of here! If you really want to avenge your son, don't interfere with my mission. How can we avenge your son tomorrow if the troops don't get enough rest?"

Zhao Qiliang, who was in the wrong, didn't dare to say anything after Li Kun's scolding. He just stood there wiping his tears.

Looking at Zhao Qiliang's gray hair and miserable face, Li Kun suddenly thought of his father and his heart softened.

"Xu Song!"

"To!"

"Give this old man some food and take him to your class to rest!"

Looking at Zhao Qiliang's desolate back as he left, Li Kun couldn't help but sigh.

There must be something hateful about pitiful people

If the father and son had been able to honestly abide by the arrangements at the gathering place and not try to cheat, would the tragedy have still happened?

The most frightening thing for people is to think they are smarter than others!
