Chapter 98 Unexpected twist

 The temporary safety zone is now crowded with people and extremely lively.

In just one hour, thousands of survivors had gathered here, and the entire camp expanded again and again under forced circumstances.

Fortunately, many powerful warriors have arrived during this period, and the four most threatening fourth-level beasts have been killed one by one. As for the remaining beasts, they have also been wiped out.

As expected, this brutal beast raid will come to an end soon.

At this moment, many disgraced survivors were drinking hot soup, eating dry food, and holding phones in their hands to report that they were safe. Of course, there were also some who were hiding in the corner alone and crying bitterly.

The temporary fence was raised, and about a dozen armored vehicles returned safely.

The rear door opened, and the hundred or so people who had just stepped out saw the lively scene in front of them, and they all smiled as if they had survived the disaster.

Finally came back to life.

At this time, a group of medical soldiers and volunteers ran over carrying stretchers and quickly moved the seriously injured people in the car.

After Senior Sister Lin carefully helped lift her seriously injured classmate onto the stretcher, tears suddenly rolled down her face, which was still smiling:

"How are we going to explain to our teachers and classmates when we go back?"

It can be said that this group of close classmates suffered heavy casualties this time.

In addition to the news of Wu Yiming's death, which was somewhat caught off guard, a total of three people in the ten-person team died and four were seriously injured.

Now, apart from her and Gu Yifei, there was only one male classmate left who could stand and talk.

Beside her, Gu Yifei's eyes were also bright red.

She didn't know until she got upstairs that two senior brothers had died in the battle. Except for Wu Yiming, she got along very well with the seniors in the class. The two deceased senior brothers had all enthusiastically taught her martial arts skills.

She is still very sad when she sees their bodies.

Chen Jing stepped forward and patted her shoulder comfortingly, without saying a word.

Because he has also experienced all this and knows that it is useless to say anything now, he can only come out on his own.

Jiangnan Military Academy has never been a comfortable place. Every mission carries the risk of death. Until now, he has personally experienced the funerals of several familiar classmates.

Although it was a little uncomfortable at first, it became a habit.

Since you are determined to walk such a thorny road, no matter what the outcome is, you must not regret it.

"What a pity, Senior Brother Wu. With his strength, he could have been saved until the end, but in the end he sacrificed himself to help us cut off the enemy." The remaining Nansu University classmate who was still intact said in a tearful voice.

It's a pity that you don't know the true face of the senior brother Wu you admire. Chen Jing said with a smile in his heart when he heard this.

At this time, Senior Sister Lin also had a dark expression: "The corpses of Senior Brother Wu are also...those damn savage beasts!"

Hearing this, Gu Yifei's expression suddenly changed, and she couldn't help but feel nervous.

She naturally knew the reason, and she also knew that she must not show any suspicion at this time.

It's just that it's the first time to do this kind of thing, just like meeting the police on the street after doing something bad for the first time. You know that the other person won't care about you, but you can't help but feel uneasy.

Fortunately, Chen Jing also noticed Gu Yifei's mood swings at this time, and he quickly pressed the palm on her shoulder hard.

The slight tingling sensation also made Gu Yifei concentrate on calming down her expression.

At the same time, Chen Jing also deliberately picked up the words of Senior Sister Lin and said: "I'm sorry, everyone, if I had come earlier, I might have been able to save Senior Brother Wu's life."

"Senior Brother Chen, please don't say that. Without you, a group of us would have died together long ago."

"It's too late to thank you, senior brother, so how can you blame me?"

"If that were the case, we would no longer be human beings!"

Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Lin said anxiously.

Even though she now knows that this person is acquainted with Junior Sister Gu and is the same age, she still calls him Senior Brother.

After all, in the martial arts field, ranking is never based on seniority, but rather on strength.

Of course, unless like Wang Chen and Sun Qiaowei, who have been with Chen Jing for a long time and have a close relationship, they can shout that junior brother is okay.

"Yes, yes!" The classmate who spoke first also quickly responded.

Chen Jing, who successfully attracted the attention of the two, naturally continued to chat with them.

This also made Gu Yifei relax and regain her previous look. As a first-time offender, after experiencing this for the first time, she thought it would be much easier the second time.

It's never a mistake to be careful.

Two hours later, a burst of cheers suddenly rang out from an area of ​​the temporary camp.

Soon, it spread and spread throughout the camp.

Listening to the cheers of all kinds of men and women in his ears, Chen Jing took a deep breath and said happily:

"It's over."

Gu Yifei on the side did not have the same mentality as him, but just followed with a complicated expression:

"it is finally over."



Cough! Cough! Cough!

The sound of hoarse coughing echoed continuously in the spacious and gorgeous hall.

An old man with gray hair and severely sagging skin was holding a cane in both hands and sitting in the middle of the expensive leather sofa. His body was shaking with the sound of coughing.

The setting sun shines into the living room through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of about ten meters, covering the entire space with a layer of dim yellow, just like the old man, giving people a sense of sadness that the past is gone and the past is gone.

"water."

The old man's hoarse voice suddenly sounded.

The male servant who had been waiting patiently aside quickly handed me a glass of water, carefully waited for me to drink it, and quietly returned to his original position.

The entire living room returned to calm again, except for the occasional cough.

I don't know how long it took, but the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps approaching from far away. They were very fast and stopped in front of the old man in a few seconds.

"Mr. Wu, the results of the investigation have come out." A middle-aged man in his thirties or forties wearing a suit and gold-rimmed eyes said cautiously.

Upon hearing this, the old man quickly opened his eyes, and two dazzling lights flashed under his swollen eyelids.

The middle-aged man hurriedly moved his eyes away, not daring to look directly at him.

"What's the result?" The old man's voice sounded much louder than before.

"The investigation results are consistent with the official. The young master died at the hands of a savage beast." The middle-aged man said, bowing and handing the investigation document in his hand to the old man.

The old man didn't make any movement, only the slight rising and falling of his chest showed that his mood was by no means as calm as it appeared.

In response, the middle-aged man still maintained his bowed posture.

Finally, five minutes later, the old man took the document and looked at it carefully.

Only then did he get up.

After a long time, the old man's suppressed angry voice suddenly sounded.

"Why? Obviously Yiming is the strongest among them all, and everyone else is fine. Why did something happen to him?"

The middle-aged man replied: "According to the investigation, the young master took the initiative to cut off the rear in order to help others evacuate, and ultimately sacrificed his life."

As he said that, he took out another badge box, handed it to the old man and said, "This is the Medal of Heroism awarded to the young master by the country."

The old man was extremely angry and laughed: "What a medal! Is my Wu family short of this crap!"

As he spoke, he flung away the box that was handed to him. The box fell on the marble with a clang, the consecration light was shaken open, and the brass medal inside rolled far away until it disappeared.

"Queen? Sacrifice? My son Yiming's life is much more noble than theirs. Why should they let Yiming cut off the queen? Why should they sacrifice him!"

The old man couldn't sit still anymore and stood up directly, his crutch making a thumping sound on the marble.

Finally, he came to the middle-aged man, grabbed his tie, pulled his head down, then put his old face forward, looked at the man from close range, and said word by word:

"What qualifications do they have to live alone!"

"you say?"

The middle-aged man whose neck was tightly bound looked at the old man's eyes that looked like he had completely lost his mind. He took a nervous breath and nodded quickly:

"You are indeed not qualified!"

After hearing this, the old man patted his cheek with satisfaction, turned and left.

Just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the old man suddenly turned around again, looked over with his eyes like those of an animal, and said in a "harmonious voice":

"Now that you know it, let's do it quickly."

"Yes Yes!"

The middle-aged man shuddered violently and quickly bowed and retreated outside.

The entire hall returned to deathly silence again.

After a long time, an extremely suppressed scream suddenly sounded.
Chapter completed!
