Chapter 859: Red Cliff Base ( 3 )
A few minutes later, they finally managed to link their signal to the satellite and contact the other side.
Catrina Bell turned to the young man and said, "Charon, you will be the one who talks to them."
Charon nodded and said, "Lin’an City Base, Lin’an City Base, this is Wen Hanyu speaking. I’m from the Red Cliff Base, located at the 2nd colony of the Thirteen Colonies. If you can hear me, please respond."
He repeated this message several times. When they thought that they wouldn’t get any response, someone finally responded to their message.
"Comrade Wen, we hear you. What is your situation over there?"
"Comrade, at this moment, the entire Red Cliff Base is surrounded by zombie cockroaches and zombie rats. We are also running out of supplies and ammunition. Please help us," Wen Hanyu said.
On the other side, Fu Shenhan was taken aback when he heard the news.
He quickly opened the world map and checked the Thirteen Colonies’ location. The 2nd colony was located at the center of the island and was the biggest colony.
They were able to help send reinforcements and supplies. It was just that the distance was too far, and it would take at least 6 to 8 days to reach there in the current weather.
He thought for a moment and said, "Comrade, I will inform the Vice Commander of this matter. If the higher-ups agree to send reinforcements and supplies, it will take at least 6 to 8 days to reach your location. Please hold on as long as possible."
When he heard this, the light in Wen Hanyu’s eyes dimmed. "Comrade, I’m afraid we don’t have that much time left."
"The zombie cockroaches and zombie rats have entered the base. We are currently holding on to the last line of defense. But the number of casualties is very high. At most, we can only hold on for another day."
Just after he said this, they heard a loud sound of explosions from outside.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
PRANK!
The ground shook due to the impact, and even the windows were shattered by the force of the explosions.
In the Lin’an City Base, Fu Shenhan and his team were stunned when they heard the sound of explosions coming from the radio. What followed was the long sound of static.
"Chief, it looks like their base has fallen. Should we report this to the Vice Commander?" one of the team members asked.
Fu Shenhan took out his satellite phone and sent a message to Wen Hanli. He didn’t know if that comrade had a connection with the Vice Commander or if it was just a coincidence, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
Meanwhile, due to the explosion force, the radio was broken, and they lost signal. After a while, Wen Hanyu finally opened his eyes, but still heard ringing in his ears. He shook his head a few times to focus his eyes.
When he regained his senses, he saw the broken radio on the ground and crawled over to check it. The radio was blasted and couldn’t be repaired anymore.
Seeing that the only hope for them was destroyed, his face turned pale, and he sat there in a daze. He thought that he was finally able to go home. Unexpectedly, fate seemed to decide otherwise.
He stared outside the window and saw a massive hole appear in the wall. The zombie cockroaches and zombie rats poured into the base and devoured everything in front of them. Not to mention ordinary people, even those with abilities were unable to escape.
Suddenly, his arm was yanked, and he was pulled up. Coming back to his senses, he met a pair of silver eyes. "What are you spacing out for?! The base has fallen, we have to leave right now!"
Without giving him a chance to say a word, the girl threw away the broken radio in Wen Hanyu’s hand and grabbed the backpacks nearby. She shoved one backpack at him and carried another one by herself.
Then, she intertwined their fingers and held his palm tightly. She pulled him out of the tower and ran toward the Command Center. The so-called Command Center was the tallest building in the entire base.
There were three helicopters parked on the rooftop, reserved for the higher-ups to evacuate when the base fell. Right now, their only chance of survival is getting into one of the helicopters and getting out of this place.
The two of them ran without even daring to stop. When they reached the Command Center, they saw a large crowd there.
They were pushing each other, trying to enter the building. Due to the chaos, a lot of people were injured from being stepped on. On the rooftop, several helicopters had taken off.
Seeing this, the girl changed direction and went to the training area.
This area was used by the guards and mutants to train. Although there was no helicopter, there were several armored vehicles, weapons, some ammunition, and even explosives.
Since they couldn’t escape from the air, they could only try the land route.
As they ran toward the training area, Wen Hanyu stared at the girl’s black hair and said, "Xixi, just leave me behind. If you go alone, you can join the Commander and ride the helicopter."
Shang Xixi didn’t even look at him and scolded, "Stop talking nonsense. We promised to go home together. I won’t abandon you."
Being scolded by her, Wen Hanyu shut up and followed her closely. When the zombie cockroaches and zombie rats almost reached the Command Center, they finally arrived at the training area.
"Get the weapons, ammunition, and any supplies you can find. Also, don’t forget to search for explosives and gasoline," Shang Xixi said before she went to get the armored vehicles.
This time, Wen Hanyu no longer dared to delay and quickly swept everything into his space. He was a space-type mutant and had already reached Level 3.
