Chapter 80 Perfect Strategy
Exclude organisms with sequence 0.
Even if that enormous creature might awaken due to its own accidental intrusion, the old city is nearly fifty kilometers away from Whisper Valley, and a brief mental fluctuation would not affect the hibernating golden salamander.
Chen Jin?
To be precise, it was an unknown green substance, possibly spores, that caused the pollution after the explosion.
After the spores exploded, they were dispersed by the wind, but the affected area was still very limited. If the Golden Salamander lived near Base Two, Blue Shield Corporation couldn't have failed to detect it.
Zite rejected this conjecture and began to recall the memories stored in his brain, with fragmented images flashing through his mind one after another.
The college hostage crisis, the Meiling Tunnel bombing, and the subway incident did not end with his death, but they did have some influence on the evolution of events.
Ziethe called this phenomenon a variable.
In contrast, invariants are factors that always exist in every event and play a certain role.
Qi Te quickly searched his memory, trying to find people and things that had appeared in both evacuations.
Finally, the image freezes.
Off-road vehicle, bounty hunter, and that suspicious backpack!
In the first playthrough, the elderly hunter, even while climbing to escape, didn't forget to carry his backpack.
On the second playthrough, when he was hanging upside down in mid-air by vines, Qi Te saw that after Wei Zai climbed out of the SUV, blood was still gushing from his neck, but he still did not give up on the backpack.
Therefore, that backpack must contain some important item.
In conclusion, Whistle Valley remains a dangerous area.
Because, on the way to Outpost 3, when passing through Whistle Valley, we encountered those two modified dark gray off-road vehicles.
Based on the timing of the beast tide outbreak, it's not hard to deduce that the bounty hunters had ventured deep into the mountains where Whisper Valley is located to retrieve important items from their backpacks, causing the golden dragon to awaken and go berserk.
What could it be?
The backpack was quite large, but definitely not enough to hold a dragon salamander.
In addition, both G4 and Senior Qin mentioned that most hibernating creatures do not reproduce during winter. Some hibernating creatures will use their hibernation period of more than three months to incubate their offspring.
and many more!
"Could it really be a dragon egg?!"
Are those guys crazy? They dare to touch this stuff? They're so audacious they could stew a whole pot of it.
Qi Te had previously guessed that the one who attracted the golden dragon was not his own group, nor AA who carried Jiang Luo to the top of the mountain, but the two bounty hunters.
At this point, he was absolutely certain that this was the truth.
In the first playthrough, not long after the two climbed to the top of the mountain, the golden dragon appeared.
On the second playthrough, after the roar of the off-road vehicle's engine was heard, the Golden Dragon followed closely behind.
In the first playthrough, the other person crashed into a pickup truck while driving through Whisper Valley. Afterwards, they probably discovered the Blue Shield team members and students climbing the rocks, which is why they followed them up.
How did you catch up on the second playthrough?
Haicheng is located between the north and the west, and the buffer zone is also in that direction. To avoid the densest beast tide, Chit suggested going around to the north, as the bounty hunters would definitely not be able to keep up with the caravan based on the timeline.
AA itself is a superhuman intelligence, and even if there are hackers among the bounty hunters, they couldn't possibly hack into the Blue Shield vehicle system. Just like Joey said, without the equipment, no matter how advanced the technology, it's useless.
Qi Te took out his phone, opened the satellite map, and entered the coordinates sent by Jiang Luo.
It is 18 kilometers away from here, located directly below Whistle Valley.
The answer is obvious.
After receiving the message he sent, Jiang Luo headed north. The off-road vehicle that had escaped from Whistle Valley spotted Jiang Luo's car and instinctively gave chase.
Thinking of this, Qi Te immediately dialed Jiang Luo's number.
Soon, the emotionless voice came through the receiver.
"AA, Jiang Luo's life is in danger, let her answer the phone quickly..."
.......................
"Evacuate?"
Xu Su stubbed out the cigarette in his palm and looked at the college student in front of him in astonishment.
"New supplies have just arrived..."
Before Captain Xu could finish speaking, Qi Te impatiently interrupted, "Forget about the collection equipment, open the fuel tank and fill it up. Evacuate immediately, or everyone will die!"
Xu Su really wanted to say, "You little rascal, are you under the influence of hallucinogenic toxins in the rainforest?" But for some reason, when he met Qi Te's gaze, he suddenly felt a chill.
High-level superhumans have a sense of danger far beyond that of ordinary people. Before this, he was completely unaware of it, but after hearing what Zite said, a sense of crisis arose spontaneously.
"Everyone assemble..."
This time, Xu Su did not offer much explanation, but simply issued orders.
The oppressive feeling emanating from the high-level superhuman kept everyone from asking a single question.
Qi Te rushed to the pickup truck, and Ji Chenyu asked in astonishment, "Tezi, what happened to your hair?"
Yue Wanwan frowned and looked at the area above Qi Te's forehead: "Why has your hair suddenly turned white?"
Qi Te glanced at the car window and noticed a strand of white hair above his forehead.
No, it's not that there's more hair, it's that a strand of hair has turned white.
Without thinking too much, Qi Te grabbed Yue Wanwan and ran towards the main control car.
The Blue Shield team members quickly opened the boxes, took out the fuel cans, filled up the tanks, and the convoy, which had just arrived at Outpost No. 3, set off again.
The collection team members were also completely baffled, not understanding what had happened.
Inside the control room, Liu Baichuan closed his eyes to rest, looking serious. Teaching assistant Ding Xiang glanced at Liu from time to time, looking embarrassed as if he wanted to ask a question but didn't dare to.
Even more anxious than him was Yue Wanwan, who was reassigned to Xu Su's side.
Chit climbed back onto the roof, not to admire the scenery, but to provide optimal support for D3 and G4. He reminded them to conserve ammunition as much as possible to ensure they would still be able to fight once they entered the high grass area.
"Where did this herd of beasts come from? They probably just spotted a few unusual creatures in the rainforest and thought something terrible had happened..."
As the convoy sped along the rough and uneven road, it would bounce every now and then, causing G4's back to ache slightly, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
The students in the carriage were also quite complaining. Lu Yan, who was traveling with Qi Te, bumped her head from the jolting and immediately complained, "It's perfectly fine outside, what danger is there? We're being pulled around like this, I'm about to throw up from all this riding."
"If you're going to throw up, then throw up. After you're done, shut up."
Qiao Yi rolled her eyes with annoyance. She was already a little annoyed by this classmate from the next class, but for some reason, she suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of disgust.
Soon, the team members and students who questioned the evacuation were proven wrong.
"Uncle D, 7 o'clock."
Upon hearing Zit's warning, D3 did not hesitate to pick up his shotgun and pull the trigger in the direction he pointed.
A vulture that swooped down was blasted to pieces in mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, a dozen or so vultures attacked.
At the same time, a group of spiny hyenas sprang out from the forest not far ahead.
The hyena, about the size of a hippopotamus, has backs covered in sharp, hard quills similar to those of a porcupine. A collision with one of these would certainly wreck a car, but the hyena might not necessarily die.
It has thick skin and a huge health bar; even a burst of gunfire might not be enough to take it down.
Fortunately, it was too bulky and not fast enough.
The Blue Shield team members had no time to be surprised; they just kept pulling the trigger and throwing bombs.
The students inside the train carriage, after seeing the real battlefield outside the window, dared not utter another word.
"Holy crap, Tezi saved us again!"
Ji Chenyu exclaimed in surprise, then muttered in confusion, "Hey, why did I say 'again'?"
However, he didn't think much of it, after all, it was Teko who reminded the whole class during the academy hostage incident.
But Cao Yingchong frowned thoughtfully. For some reason, he felt that everything happening before his eyes seemed like something he had experienced before.
.........................
This time, instead of suggesting avoiding Whisper Valley and going north, Zite suggested heading straight towards the buffer zone along the mountain range between Whisper Valley and the rainforest.
Because the rewind occurred ten minutes earlier, Captain Xu Su did not contact the central control center to monitor the satellites and check the situation at the border, unlike in the second playthrough.
By eliminating these steps, the retreat was initiated earlier, and the number of beasts encountered was drastically reduced.
Team leader Xu Su once again took the lead, bravely carving a bloody path for the convoy.
An hour later, the convoy successfully entered the vast grassland.
Almost simultaneously, Jiang Luo sent a message.
"We're almost in the old town. How's it going on your end?"
Her coordinates are located below Whistle Valley. If she wants to evacuate towards Haicheng, there are only two routes.
We could either traverse the Whistle Valley Mountains or detour north. Both options had already been tried twice before, and both attempts had ended in failure.
This time, the notification was given earlier, and AA did not waste precious evacuation time as before.
Qi Te found an effective way to communicate with the mechanical girl. The sentence "Jiang Luo's life is in danger" is equivalent to a command, which takes effect as soon as it is triggered.
"We've just entered the high grasslands. The reinforcements called in by Blue Shield are on their way to the old city. There should also be a large number of anomalous creatures inside. Get to the hospital as quickly as possible. Be careful."
After quickly replying to a message, Qi Chi raised his perception to the maximum, his eyes scanning the dense grass, and after each scan, he turned his gaze to the ground.
By eliminating this crucial factor of bounty hunter teams following them, they also avoided being chased by the Golden Dragon Salamander again.
Blue Shield suffered zero casualties among its combat personnel, with only a small number of members sustaining injuries. The vehicles still had plenty of fuel, enough to return to the city.
Everything is moving in a positive direction.
Qi Te was confident that this perfect strategy would ensure everyone returned to the city alive!
