MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 104 Preparing for the Battle (Part 1)

   After eating lunch in a hurry, Yang Xiaoqian quickly read through the materials and reports submitted by Fang Yu, as well as the photos and videos taken by his mobile phone.

   It can be seen that the number and strength of the mutants are gradually increasing, and what is even more worrying is that their combat IQ is still growing.

  Fortunately, the Dawning Squad brought back not only bad news.

   On the way back, Yu Qian, Fangyu and others found and successfully brought back two Awakeneds, one of them brought several beautiful women, and the other walked alone.

With a few beautiful women, the awakened person who used his superpower identity to open the harem was named Hu Wenchao. Before the disaster, he was an unnamed migrant worker in Yuanjiang City. After awakening his ability, he did not act recklessly. Voluntarily follow him.

   When Yu Qian discovered him, he was being besieged by several mutants and was almost alive, but he still did not give up the women to escape alone. He was a man. Yang Xiaoqian thought that after ideological education, he could be considered for the Dawning Squad.

  Another Awakener who can stealth is named Cao Ming, with a mysterious origin and few words, so Yu Qian Fangyu knows very little about him. It is only worth noting that it was not Yu Qian who found him, but he took the initiative to find the Dawning Team and expressed his desire to be one of them.

   "It looks a little suspicious, so you have to pay attention." Yang Xiaoqian let out a long sigh and gently pressed his temple with the pulp of his thumb, which is his usual way of decompressing recently.

Now the two newly arrived Awakeners should have been properly placed, but I don't know if Yu Qian can calm them down - before Yu Qian gave up, Yang Xiaoqian didn't plan to interfere too much, as long as Yu Qian didn't make a big deal, he wouldn't break it The promise of "Awakened people are the masters of the matter".

  When the twilight obscures the tail of the day, a sumptuous banquet is held in the hotel lobby, which has now been converted into the reception room of the Far Rescue Association, welcoming the return of the warriors and the joining of new partners.

Yang Xiaoqian could see that Hu Wenchao and Cao Ming were both people with their own opinions, and it was difficult to fool them with a few words, so he didn't talk too much to win over them, and didn't introduce them to the Yuanjiao Society, but simply said some polite words, Instead, focus on Fang Yu and others. After all, they are the protagonists tonight.

The banquet lasted until the early hours of the morning, consuming a lot of precious ingredients, but it was rarely wasted. First, the staff who cleaned up and cleaned up the remaining dishes would eat more dishes. The third-class residents who have worked hard these days are rewarded. No matter how prominent and noble their status was before, they will not waste any food now, and they will definitely lick their plates cleaner than washing them.

At this time, the sense of superiority as second-class residents is reflected. The second-class residents who were promoted for good performance on the departure day of the dawn team not only have enough food, but also comfortable accommodation, and even wash once a week. A five-minute hot bath, such a luxurious treatment, is unimaginable for the third-class residents who have not seen meat and fish for more than a month and are so hungry that their eyes are green and licking their plates.

   The banquet was lively. However, Yang Xiaoqian lost his appetite, so he left the table early, packed three or two small dishes and brought them to the office, drinking and chatting with his father Yang Yan. It was a rare night of relaxation.

"Xiaoqian, tell me the truth, how is the situation now? What are your plans in the future?" The disaster is over, the dome is gone, will the state come to trouble you? You...you have killed a lot of people."

"Of course he will come to me, but he shouldn't make too much trouble. When it comes to killing people, 258 has killed a lot more than me, so don't worry. The law is rule of man after all. As long as I am willing to serve the country and the people, everything can be said. You must know that the Awakened is a rare species that can only be found in the far river." Yang Xiaoqian replied with a drunken eye and smiled.

"As for the current situation, to be honest, it's not very optimistic." Yang Xiaoqian stood up, staggered, took out a map of the Far River, spread it out, pointed to the map and said, "Well, the red part is the site of the 258th Brigade, and the black area is Danger zone, that green speck is our paradise island."

   "What about these gray areas and white lines?" Yang Yan asked, looking at the map.

"The white line is the safe route recorded when going out two times before and after. Of course, this is temporarily uncertain. No one knows where the mutants and corpses will migrate to. The gray part is based on the words of those refugees and escapees. Probably the guessed gray area. There may be other emerging forces, and these gray parts are the places we will consider contacting in the next step." Yang Xiaoqian explained, "The number of the 258 Brigade is limited, and the expansion of the new army cannot be completed overnight. We must intervene as soon as possible and try our best to unite the compatriots in the Yuanjiang territory, unite the front, and fight the corpse together, hehe."

   "Oh!" Yang Yan nodded suddenly, then pointed to a gray area surrounded by green lines next to the green spot, "This is?"

"Jiangxin Island was the first base camp I considered, but later gave up because of concerns about the government. Now, it's time to reconsider taking it. I have already said hello to the 258 Brigade. As long as Liu Yuanzhou nods his endorsement, we will do whatever it takes. Rest assured to take Jiangxin Island."

   The wrinkles at the corners of Yang Yan's eyes suddenly tightened. After hesitating for a moment, he asked worriedly, "Want to fight again?"

"Pfft, haha." Yang Xiaoqian, who was amused, shook his head quickly and said, "If you don't fight, the 258 brigade group fights against mutants and corpses. It's called fighting. We, dozens of people, are fighting like a village head. It's not enough. Let's go to war. Don't worry, Dad, it's just the preparation stage, don't you still know my character? If you're not sure, you won't do anything."

   "Then are you going?" As a "selfish" father, Yang Yan's first reaction only thought of his son's safety.

Without hesitation or hesitation, Yang Xiaoqian nodded and said, "We must go. The number of permanent residents of Jiangxin Island plus tourists may reach 8,000 to 10,000. Even if only one-fifth of the people here become zombies, there will be Nearly 2,000 numbers, we also need to consider variants..."

Speaking of this, seeing his father's serious expression, Yang Xiaoqian stopped immediately, thought for a moment, and then said: "It is not easy to recover Jiangxin Island, you must go all out, as the only one on Paradise Island to open the two chains The Awakened One, President of the Far Rescue Society, I must go."

   Yang Yan knew that now his son was on a great mission, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people depended only on his thoughts, so he had to keep his mouth shut and drink alcohol.

   After three rounds of wine, and three more rounds, Yang Yan was already drunk, Zhang Xinyi brought a few waiters and helped Yang Yan back to his suite, while Zhang Xinyi herself held a bowl of sober soup and handed it to Yang Xiaoqian.
