Chapter 17
After receiving the excavation report of the battle remains of the orc blood clan, Reya called Zhang Xing after reading it.
As soon as Zhang Xing picked up the phone, he heard complaints rushing out: "The work in your research center is getting rougher and rougher, and the report is too brief, and our major discoveries are worth two thousand words. "
"There are many ancient battlefields, and there is no need for an autopsy. No matter how detailed the writing is, there will be no bonus."
"I don't do analysis either. Hey, I can see the stars. They are all the remains of adult orcs. There are no subadults or juveniles."
"Of course we must send elite troops to fight."
"Come on, orcs have that IQ? It's obvious that the blood race attacked the gathering place of orcs, killing all the adult orcs and taking away the young ones."
"Then tell me, why did they take the little one away?"
"After all, it won't be kept as a pet." Reya's voice paused for a while, "I suddenly remembered the orc who sprayed my face with brain tissue last time. Judging from the aggressiveness of the orc, the possibility of adult transformation is not high. It should have been raised since childhood."
Zhang Xing felt that what Rhea said made sense.Adult transformation will be limited by factors such as the cessation of bone development, while larvae are still in the developmental stage, and the success rate of transformation is higher.
"So you think the blood race attacked the orcs in order to capture the little orcs and sell them to humans as test materials?"
"I'm thinking about this possibility, Xing Xing, do you want to study in depth and write a report, maybe you can win a Pulitzer Prize."
"What am I doing with the journalist's award?" Zhang Xing was dumbfounded, "The Nobel Prize in Medicine is considered a professional counterpart."
Rhea snorted on the other end of the phone: "Yes, I also want to be nominated as a co-discoverer."
"If this kind of report is written, no media will dare to report it. Don't even think about it." Zhang Xing shook his head with a smile.
"That's right, because of the half-pipe sample, Jing Hai was so angry that he shattered the tempered glass."
"...he is really not human..."
"I also feel that he is not human, so let's not talk about it, I have to go out and talk back."
"be careful."
be safe?Rhea raised her eyebrows slightly.Jing Hai once reminded him like this, although it was an extremely ordinary exhortation, but it felt weird to say it from the other party's mouth.
Suddenly realizing that he always thought of Jing Hai from time to time recently, he subconsciously patted his head, knocking out the sharp face like a knife and ax from his mind.
However, I can't avoid it if I don't want to, because I work in a department after all.When he met Jing Hai in the elevator, Leia looked away and bowed his head to say hello, and stood with his back to Jing Hai.
Jing Hai heard him tell the central control system to go to the tarmac, and asked, "A mission?"
"Regular patrol." Rhea responded coldly without turning around.He can no longer drink so much wine in the future, Jing Hai is only two hairs, but he has bald his self-esteem.
The elevator stopped, and several people came in one after another, separating Jinghai and Reya.Jing Hai originally wanted to tell Leiya not to care about what happened that night, but the other party was obviously avoiding him, and he was arrested for several days without arresting anyone.Now that there are so many people, there is no way to mention it. It's not easy to embarrass Rhea in public.
Having said that, it seems that since Lin Huan's pheromone invaded the neurons, he couldn't stop caring about Rhea, even if he injected a blocking agent, it was useless.The energetic smiling face in the dream that moved Lin Huan's heart was always frozen in his mind, vivid and clear.
Just today, he made up his mind to talk to Rhea.
The elevator stopped on the executive floor. After the door opened, no one moved inside, and no one was waiting outside.Everyone looked at each other, and someone asked: "The executive level is here, is there no one coming down?"
Rhea looked back at Jinghai——when he entered the elevator, Jinghai was alone, and the lights on the administrative floor were on.But right now, Jing Hai is acting as if he has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't seem to be planning to get out of the elevator.
Arriving at the apron on the top floor, Jing Hai walked out of the elevator behind Leia. Before he could speak, Leia turned around suddenly, with displeasure on his face: "Aren't you going to the administrative floor? Why are you following me?"
Jing Hai asked back, "Why are you hiding from me?"
"Who is hiding from you?" Reya's eyes froze.
Jing Hai and him looked at each other calmly without answering the conversation.Having seen Rhea's fragile side, any pretense of the other party is like air in front of him.But he would not peel off that layer of disguise with his own hands, unless Rhea voluntarily took it off.
Jing Hai's gaze had a sharpness that pierced people's hearts. Being stared at made him feel guilty, Rhea slightly staggered his eyes.Obviously, the side of him that he least wants to be seen has been exposed to the other party. No matter how harsh his tone and attitude are, he is still fighting.
"Don't worry about being underestimated, Team Lei," Jing Hai broke the silence, "You are stronger than most people I've met, but like you said, excessive restraint can make people physically and mentally exhausted... I mean Let me tell you, if necessary, here—"
He patted on the shoulder.
"I can borrow it from you."
Rhea's heart trembled.This kindness was too straightforward, and it came too suddenly. Jing Hai did not underestimate him, but...
"Captain Jing, thank you for your kindness, I appreciate it." He turned around and straightened his back, with his shoulders and neck at a stubborn angle, "But I don't like being pitied more than being despised."
As he walked towards the transport plane, he heard a barely audible sigh behind him.
Thunder and lightning flashed, and in an instant heavy rain poured down. The transport plane had to climb to the stratosphere to avoid the minefield.
The picture sent back by the drone is only the torrential rain, and the viewing distance is close to zero.Rhea was staring at the virtual screen boredly when he suddenly received an action command from the headquarters.The monitoring center notified him that there was an A-level biological warning less than [-] kilometers away from them, requiring the three teams to deal with it immediately.
Zhuo Han positioned the coordinates of the warning location on the big screen, and frowned: "Damn, I'm going to go into the sea again."
"This kind of weather is more comfortable in the sea than on the shore." Jiang Yu patted his arm with his backhand, "Deputy team, are you afraid of water?"
"Fart, I'm nicknamed 'The Dragon in the Waves'."
"Really?"
"Listen to him bragging," Rhea pierced mercilessly, "during diving training, he lay dead on the shore and refused to go into the water. He is fast."
Zhuo Han felt a little uneasy on his face, and hurriedly went back to make up for it: "How many years ago, which underwater training did I not meet the standard now?"
"That's a hundred and eight thousand miles away from Jiaolong, okay, at most it's a solitary."
"Boss, if you do this again, I'm really going to make a fuss."
"Hurry up, I'm bored."
Reya folded her arms on her chest, put on a posture of waiting to watch the excitement, and called other team members to watch Zhuo Han's "noisy".
"..."
Zhuo Han wanted to cry but had no tears, he said he had to ask carefully when he went back to see which team still lacked a vice-captain.
In the conference room, Jing Hai, who was in a meeting, suddenly felt his wrist watch vibrate. He slightly pushed his sleeves and looked down. It was an automatic reminder from the task dispatching system.Finding that the task was assigned to the third team, he pulled out the virtual terminal horizontally and browsed the task briefing under the cover of the desktop.
The coordinates are located in the North Pacific near the Bering Sea area, A-level biological warning, mutant king squid.This kind of animal can reach a length of more than ten meters before the mutation. After the mutation, the longest adult can exceed 50 meters, and the bony teeth in its sucker are nearly half a meter long. Ships suffered heavy losses.However, due to its soft structure, it can be dealt with by ordinary torpedoes, so it is included in the A-level biological warning purely because of its size.
Putting his mind down for a while, Jing Hai flicked up the screen to zoom in on the detection image, only glanced at it and suddenly stood up from his seat.Everyone in the room was startled by him, especially the director who was speaking, half of what he said was stuck in his throat.
"Boss Yin, I'll deal with the emergency first."
Before the words landed, the Jinghai people had already rushed out of the conference room.Just watching the sonar detection shows that a group of densely packed bright spots are rapidly approaching the mission location, and the system prompts that it may be a mutant sea snake that is also included in the A-level biological warning.This kind of sea creature is more poisonous than cobras, and it moves extremely fast in the water. Such a huge number can't be parried by only three teams of ten people.
The first team, led by Yao Zhi, was carrying out a mission near the equator, [-] kilometers away from the headquarters, and there was no time to recall it.While running to the elevator, he contacted other captains and learned that only seven teams were stationed in the bureau.
After connecting to the communication channel of the transport plane in the elevator, Jing Hai hurriedly asked, "Where are the members of the third team?"
The pilot replied: "Already in the water."
"Switch Thunder Team's private channel for me!"
Due to the implementation of deep diving operations, the poor communication can only be transferred by the receiver of the transport plane.However, due to the impact of the thunderstorm, the magnetic signal was severely disturbed, and there was only a crackling noise in the receiver.
"Team Beijing, I can't get in touch."
"Go down and pick them up immediately!"
"Can't go down, there's a thunderstorm."
"—"
Jing Hai rushed out of the elevator, turned around and looked at the terminal building, and was even more shocked—one of the six transport planes was not there.
The captain of Team Seven came out of another elevator, ran to him in a hurry and said, "Team Beijing, assemble within five minutes."
"No need! Continue to wait for orders!"
Jing Hai immediately turned his head and ran to the fighter crew, pushed open the door of the pilot lounge and shouted, "Who can get on the plane right away?"
"Report! Me!" Teng Xi stood up.
Without further ado, Jing Hai dragged him and ran to the tarmac.In fact, Jinghai himself can fly a fighter jet, but he can't go there and throw the plane floating in the sea, so he has to hire a pilot.
Just like the difference in height of more than ten centimeters is due to the difference in leg length, Teng Xi could barely keep up with Jing Hai's stride, and shouted while running: "Team Jing! You must first say hello to our team leader when you are on duty!"
"That's too late!"
Jing Hai grabbed a ground attendant and asked which one was full of fuel, and then dragged Teng Xi and rushed over.He seldom showed any anxious emotions, and the urgency at this moment made his expression look more stern, making Ten Xido dare not ask a word.
It wasn't until being stuffed into the cockpit that Teng Xi stuttered and asked, "Fly... Where are you flying?"
Stretching out his hand to input the coordinates on the locator, Jing Hai turned over and jumped into the weapon operation cabin, and after getting ready, he rushed to the ground crew and made a gesture to apply for takeoff.
After receiving the take-off order from the ground crew, the fighter jets roared across the runway extending out of the apron, and skimmed into the clouds in the blink of an eye.Having experienced countless flight training and hundreds of actual combat missions, Teng Xi didn't need to be nervous at first, but Jing Hai's urging made him nervous instead.
After flying for a long time, I heard a low voice from the earphone: "Attention, there is a thunderstorm at the target location."
--What?Why didn't you say it earlier!I've never been through a thunderstorm zone!
Teng Xi broke out in a cold sweat and was about to cry nervously.
