Chapter 51 (1/2)

Silver gray mask, cracks spread upward from the right corner, and finally broke and fell, showing the half white face under the mask.
The man sat on the ruins of the collapsed house. His left eye seemed to be covered with a layer of white. He looked blankly at the torch burning from the sentry tower standing outside the town. The sunset fell in the distance, and the fire seemed to be brighter and brighter.
The shadow cast by the ruins in front of him seemed to be boiling. Sometimes a few tentacles rose to try to touch his face, and sometimes it was like a raging wave.
That was his extraordinary ability, which is now completely out of control.
”036, the capture plan has failed. We are evacuating. The situation of parasitic animals is not quite right. It seems that someone is directing them, and the number is far greater than expected... We need support, west of the town, move closer to us...”
The communicator in the right ear was pinched out by two narrow Navy Blue fingers. With a little force, it was ground into powder and thrown aside.
The huge body leaned against the man and sat down. The messy gravel rolled against each other and made a burst of broken dull noise. It didn't care about it at all. It looked at the shadow in front of him, and then threw its own sight into the distance.
Most of the sunset has sunk behind the hillside outside the valley, and the area of the shadow is expanding. The fire dragged the man's back very long, and soon twisted into another shape.
......
Xu Jiu took the initiative to leave Vanessa's team when he reached a position about one kilometer away from the stronghold.
Although he promised to help them fight against the parasitic animals, that doesn't mean he will obey the orders of the heterodox Bureau. With the arrival of the large troops in Wushan gathering point, Vanessa and others will undoubtedly become one of them to participate in the battle.
Xu Jiu never intended to give his back to a group of strangers. What's more, if there were a large number of parasitic animals in the city stockade, the people sent by Wusu city would certainly become the most conspicuous target. At this time, it was to make trouble for himself.
Before leaving, Xu Jiu had obtained the basic information of the stronghold through Vanessa. This static city or static town is located in a valley on the wasteland. It was originally a small gathering point established by the wasteland people. After a period of time, it was occupied by an unknown wasteland force. With superior terrain and environment, it has expanded and developed for several years, It eventually became an extrajudicial place on the wasteland.
There is only one passageway in the valley. Now it has been occupied by the official troops arriving one after another. However, as Vanessa said before, the two armed helicopters and mobile contingents as the main force of the war seem to have not arrived yet.
Xu Jiu was not in a hurry to enter the stronghold, but took advantage of the last period of time before nightfall to quickly gallop to the right high slope of the valley ahead, made a big circle to avoid the troops at the mouth of the mountain valley, and climbed all the way along the steep hillside.
This section of the road is not easy to walk. There is no formed path, and because the thick snow layer has not been melted, it is difficult to distinguish the road conditions, Xu Jiu had to slow down.
Fortunately, the best thing dust series motorcycles do is cross-country. In addition, the slope of the mountain is not steep. When it is close to the top of the valley, Xu Jiu first found a bush to hide the motorcycle. He immediately took out a satchel with memory from the trunk, hung it in his neck, carried a shotgun on his back, and climbed alone with a telescope on his chest.
At this time, night has fallen, and a lack of moon hangs high in the sky.
The cold night wind roared in and out of the valley, mixed with the constant whistling of dead crows.
The snow drops from the cliff at the height of the valley. Xu jiushou looks back at the dead crows stopped on the nearby dead trees, turns back to disperse the fire circle arranged in advance to prevent them from stepping empty, and stands at the edge of the cliff after the snow melts. His current position is not too far from the lower stronghold. After all, it's only halfway up the mountain.
The official reconnaissance UAV provides lighting while walking around the valley. Xu Jiu also took this opportunity to take out his telescope and search around the stronghold, intending to mark the location of several parasitic animals or possible parasitic animals first, which is also one of his special detours.
