Three hours later, the army from the southern base arrived at the camp and the three parties assembled.

Without time to exchange pleasantries, everyone entered the large tent in the middle, and the atmosphere was tense.

"Jiang Run and I were attacked on the way here, so we can't fight like last time. I suggest a quick battle."

The last time was a sneak attack and the opponent was caught off guard.

But this time Ji Wenshi was obviously prepared.

"What's going on inside City C? Still no news?"

Jiang Run's team arrived the earliest and was the first to go to the vicinity of City C to gather information. "The city is heavily guarded and we can't get close. We don't know anything about what's going on in the city."

Rong Qingyue sat on Jiang Run's right, lowered his hand and patted her leg soothingly, "We have to fight this battle no matter what."

"Soldiers, take a rest. I will go explore the way tonight."

"Are you going alone?"

Jiang Run frowned, a horrible scene flashed in his mind, "No, I'll go too."

"I am familiar with City C, so it's suitable for me to go there." Ji Xun sat upright with a serious tone.

Su Yang looked at this, then looked at that, and couldn't help but say something, "It's not a good thing, why are you scrambling to get it?"

"Why don't we all go together? We've done this kind of thing a lot, so we have a tacit understanding!"

Zhu Ning nodded in agreement, "I agree. Although I'm not as good at fighting as you, I'm a very fast runner."

Lin Yun held her forehead in her hand silently. The bosses of the three bases all ran to join in the fun. Is this really appropriate?

In the end, Yi, Lin Yun, Su Yang and Zhu Ning were all left behind.

Su Yang's pouting mouth could hold an oil bottle. Zhu Ning adapted well. "I caught a non-mutated mountain deer on the way here. It should be ready for roasting when you come back."

Night falls.

The three men and the corpse changed into clean and neat clothes for easy movement, and took advantage of the night to sneak to the outer perimeter of City C's security line.

Taking another step forward, the power of the supernatural power quickly drained from the body and was suppressed. There was a supernatural power shielding device nearby.

Rong Qingyue was well prepared. He took out a few bracelets and everyone put them on. Their bodies suddenly felt lighter.

"The principle of the energy shielding device is to disrupt the magnetic field to suppress energy interaction. The bracelet has built-in magnetic poles, which can last for half an hour in areas with chaotic magnetic fields."

"Don't be wary."

As soon as Jiang Run activated his invisibility ability, everyone's bodies disappeared from the spot and moved forward at a high speed in the white snow.

There was a "crunch".

There was the sound of metal opening and closing, and I didn't know who stepped on something.

"There's...a trap on the ground." Wen Xu's foot stepped on the trap.

He felt no pain and pulled the trap out directly without even piercing the hard skin.

Such primitive tools were used.

Fortunately, these traps were not placed too deep, and Jiang Run used his wind ability to blow away the shallow snow on the surface.

The few of them moved forward again cautiously.

Arriving at the foot of the towering city wall, it seemed to have been reinforced with Jiwen stone, and was taller and thicker than before.

But these obviously did not pose any difficulty for Rong Qingyue. He climbed up first, followed closely by Jiang Run and Ji Xun.

The city walls were heavily guarded and no one dared to slack off.

Thanks to Jiang Run's invisibility ability, they couldn't detect anyone approaching.

Taking advantage of the gap between shift changes, Rong Qingyue knocked a man unconscious, dragged him to a secluded place, and poured snow into the man's collar, causing the man to wake up from the cold.

"Why am I here? Ghost...ghost."

Rong Qingyue showed up, and after a series of torture, coercion and inducement, he finally pried the man open his mouth.

"Don't kill me, I'll tell you everything."

This brother is a coward and has revealed the entire city defense.

"There is also a ninth-level psychic. He is very strong and his mental power is enough to cover the entire city. He will be back in fifteen minutes."

"If you don't leave now, he will definitely find you."

"Ninth-level mutant?"

It is estimated that this is another mutant catalyzed by Ji Wenshi, and his mental system is in some trouble.

"I've told you everything I know, don't kill me."

Rong Qingyue stabbed him with his own hand before he could react, and the man fell limply.

He was indeed not killed, but whether he could survive in this snowy and icy place depended on his own luck.

"If what he said is true, then we have at most fifteen minutes. I know an address. Follow me."

The last time he contacted the informant, Ji Xun knew that there was a hidden spy in City C, and he would not use it easily unless it was absolutely necessary.

Hopefully, this person hasn't been discovered by Ji Wenshi's minions.

They sped all the way and stopped in the civilian area of ​​City C. Ji Xun compared the house numbers and nodded.

"There is a low-level psychic inside, and another ordinary person."

They broke the window and climbed in without making any noise.

There was a fishy and disgusting smell in the room. A living man was lying flat on the bed with a little girl in his arms.

Jiang Run retracted his supernatural power, and several people stood in the house, which seemed cramped and narrow, making it difficult to step in.

"Is that him you're talking about?"

The man was startled when he heard the sudden sound in the room. He sat up and saw someone appearing out of nowhere. He almost fainted.

"You...who are you?"

Ji Xun ignored his question and asked, "Do you know Fu Ping?"

Hearing Fu Ping's name, the man instantly woke up. He was overjoyed, "Is it the young city lord who came to pick us up?"

The room was dark, and he couldn't see anyone's faces. He could only see the outlines of a few people.

"Answer whatever you are asked."

"What happened in City C recently?"

Huang Cheng didn't know the identities of those people, but seeing that they had no intention of harming him, he told them everything he knew.

"The base had no extra food, and Ji Wenshi was no longer in charge of the food supply. It was a very chaotic time, with burning, killing, and looting happening every day, and some people even ate human flesh."

"Then one day, Ji Wenshi suddenly said yes..."

The man seemed to be hesitant to talk about this, or it was difficult to say it.

"Speak." Rong Qingyue's voice was cold and without any warmth. Huang Cheng had no choice but to continue speaking.

"They said that one person could be exchanged for 10 kilograms of grain. Almost all the elderly, weak, sick and disabled people in the family were exchanged for grain..."

Several people looked at each other. What's the use of changing the old, weak, sick and disabled? What is Ji Wenshi doing?

"Have you ever seen those who were replaced again?"

Huang Cheng shook his head. "No, I never saw them again. I asked someone and all I knew was that they were taken to the laboratory."

"But the amount of food delivered to the laboratory every day has not increased. It is very likely..."

Everyone could guess from what he didn't finish saying that those who were sent to the laboratory were all dead.

"I remember you were in charge of the warehouse. Do you know what the reagents stored there are used for?"
