Chapter 1009 Scorching Heat (Part 2)

The temperature began to drop sharply, the originally mild air began to become biting, and the gravel on the ground moved slowly.

Accompanied by several coughs and gasps.

snap

In the 29th team located on a march route in the north, a female member fell to the ground.

"Captain, Winnie has fainted."

A team member shouted, and after a while the team doctor came over to check on him.

"The body temperature is 39.1 degrees. It should be a bacterial infection."

While talking, the team doctor took out a small tube of injection medicine from his backpack. With the help of several team members, they carried Winnie to a rock. After placing Winnie in place, they took off her veil and pulled her apart. The scarf pierced her neck directly.

"If the fever still doesn't go down after an hour, call for help."

The bearded captain came over smoking a cigarette and laughed. There were only 27 people left in their 29th team. This may be the fourth person to be sent back. Those who cannot adapt to the harsh environment in the barrier area and fall ill. .

There are more female members in this team than male members. The bearded captain has actually told other teams that he hopes to replace the female members in the team with male members from other teams in order to balance the team, but basically no team captain is willing to replace them with male members. The male members of the team were replaced.

No matter how outstanding women's physical abilities are, it is still difficult to catch up with men in a short period of time. There are 21 female players in the team. At this time, several female players were guarding Winnie, and some were wiping tears.

Everyone felt uncomfortable along the way. Most people's feet were swollen today. There was no hot water, so they had to rely on heat lamps to warm their bodies during rest.

"It's okay. She's been given the injection. She'll be fine in a while. Cheer up. There's still a long way to go. It will take at most a week for you all to get used to it. Come and let me carry her. There is a small town in front of us. We are over there. Rest for 6 hours and then set off.”

The bearded captain is very easy-going. After all, there are many little girls in the team. These little girls are about the same age as his own daughters. As a father, he will naturally take care of these little girls.

After a while, a group of people approached the small town that was hazy in the wind and sand. They finally saw it clearly. No matter where they went, it was the same. The dilapidated buildings were the characteristic of the barrier area. Several male team members had already put on thermal detectors. He tested the goggles and entered the town from both sides with a gun in hand to conduct reconnaissance.

The bearded captain quietly walked into the town with a group of female soldiers. He was a mutant himself, so he naturally acted as a bait. He broke away from the team and walked in the middle, while the female soldiers ran against the walls on both sides. Some female soldiers directly entered the buildings in the town. After going up, they directly set up sniper rifles and observed the situation in the town.

"Danger averted!"

After 10 minutes, the bearded captain issued an order. Although these female soldiers were not as physically capable as the male soldiers, they were more careful than the male soldiers. The bearded captain added another 1 point to each member of the team.

"Captain, come quickly and take a look."

A female soldier shouted, and the bearded captain hurriedly followed. Several male soldiers also followed. In a long building in the town, people gathered, and a tightly wrapped man sat at the door. In fact, with only one eye exposed, he stretched out a skinny, trembling hand from the wrapping cloth.

"Give me something to eat, please."

The bearded man smiled and pulled the veil, took out a ration of military rations and a bottle of water from his backpack, and handed them to the man. He gratefully ate a small pill and drank the water in big gulps.

At this time, dim lights were on in the room, and many people were lying on the ground. One of them was busy, and there was a big pot at the top. There were lines under the big pot, and the discs at the top of the lines were attached to the bottom of the pot. It was an extremely simple electromagnetic device, and the bearded man stepped in with some nostalgia.

The six wires are all connected to a power storage machine. The power-generating bacterial battery of the power storage machine is buried underground. In order to prevent the battery from overheating during the power generation process, burying it in the soil is the best way. However, at this time, the bearded face suddenly turned pale. He became solemn.

snap

A man threw a handkerchief into a large pot that was boiling from time to time. After taking it out, he wrung out the water with a grin, and then took a hot towel and wiped it with the people lying on the shabby mattresses on the ground. Several people followed. The moment the male team members saw it, they turned around and walked out, and some started to vomit.

"Don't worry, it's not an infectious disease, the reason is there."

The man who was taking care of hundreds of patients in a room pointed to a can of liquid food on the table. The bearded man hurriedly walked over. When he picked it up, he saw the trademark of the original Sanlian Company under the polished logo.

"Why so"

People were lying on the ground, naked, with bulging red getas all over their bodies, like monsters. The pimples on the surface of some people's bodies had burst, and pus was flowing, and many people were dying. It was so painful that I could no longer scream.

"Everyone who was not sick has left, but many people have developed mild symptoms, which started after eating this liquid food during this period."

The man stared at the bearded man quietly. The bearded man handed him a cigarette and took a bar of military rations to the man. The man said thank you.

"You are a good man. I met a team on the road before, but they left and did not come over."

At this time, there was a chirping sound outside, and the bearded man stood up hurriedly.

"Don't even come in."

Accompanied by several sharp screams, the female soldiers looked at the patients in the room in fear. They were all stunned, and the bearded men pushed them out.

"What's going on, Captain!"

A female soldier was trembling, everyone looked bad, and some people started to vomit. The strong rancid smell in the room made many people unbearable, and the patients inside felt like they were in hell, which made many people feel... To shock.

The bearded man scratched his head, facing the misery directly is what these recruits need to face. There are too many miserable things in the barrier area. As human beings, they know very well that when people face misery, most of the time they will not remain indifferent. Because people have a heart.

A puff of smoke puffed out, and the healthy man who was taking care of these people came out, looking at the bearded man with a blank look on his face and a tired look on his face.

"Can I ask you a favor? I'm tired. Please give me some more food and water later. I'm leaving too."

The bearded man saw the despair in the man's eyes, nodded, and took out a semi-automatic rifle from his waist.

"Captain, what are you going to do?"

The bearded man immediately winked at the team doctor, who directly ordered the team members to leave and rest. Some female team members seemed to realize something and began to talk about asking the headquarters for help.

"We are here to perform a mission, not to play. Marching is our mission. Everyone, obey the order and leave here."

"I'm sorry. I have never killed anyone, and I don't dare to kill anyone. I took care of them for a week. The situation was very bad, really cruel. We already have such a difficult life, why do we still have to give us these poisonous foods."

The bearded man hummed.

"Ah! It's really cruel."

He raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at a dying patient at the door. It was already confirmed that it was a hemangioma. A friend of the bearded team leader who was in the 4th department had told him about the blood vessels and showed him. There are some shocking photos. Without any medical treatment, patients who have entered stage 3 can only rely on light surgery to remove the tumor on the blood vessel wall, while injecting nutrient solution to ensure vital signs. The patient will eventually be in pain as if he has died. , can't make any sound.

boom

forgive me!

Gunshots rang out, one after another, and bullet casings continued to fall on the ground. In the distance, the team members sat together in a dilapidated room, close together, and they could clearly hear the clear and crisp shots one after another. The sound of gunshots kept ringing out. This sound struck everyone's heart and whipped everyone's nerves.

The man sitting at the door kept wiping his dry eyes. There were his relatives inside, so he did not leave. The man standing next to him who was smoking had red eyes and silently shed tears. He stood aside and sat there. There was a box of liquid food. Although it was opened, no one touched it.

Click

The bearded man pulled the safety on his gun and walked out.

"Sorry!"

The man nodded, and the bearded man took a few steps, planning to start a report to the headquarters. The man behind him asked.

"Can we still be saved?"

The bearded man was not sure, then nodded and said with a slight smile.

"It's helpful. Didn't the sun appear in the barrier area that night? Just continue to be patient for a while. Do you still remember what Mr. Le Xiao, secretary of Section 13, said!"

The bearded man walked slowly, and he didn't know it, because he was just a low-status team leader of Section 3, and the affairs of the higher-ups were too far away for them.

Didi didi

6:01

Xima sat quietly on the roof, watching the light of the city in the distance completely extinguish, and the last red light faded. The city suddenly started to light up from top to bottom, with light strips spreading down, but when it reached the periphery, The lights suddenly stopped.

"Lord Xima, Team 29 submitted a report, another report on the mass death of hemangioma patients!"

Xima hummed and nodded. The director below entered the room. She smiled bitterly. The matter could no longer be suppressed. The teams marching along the way all encountered such patients, and their only way to deal with them was Just to help these patients resolve their pain.

This has happened before. When conducting military activities in the barrier area, Xima often saw some patients suffering from illness.

"What are you doing, Captain Tianhen!"

That was the first time that Xima felt a deep shock, that deep sense of helplessness that she could do nothing in the face of suffering and could only choose to leave. As a result, Tianhen shot and ended the patient's life without hesitation.

"This is a barrier zone, Hima. It would be crueler to choose to leave. How many more days and nights do they need to spend in such suffering? If they still have family members, how many more days and nights do they have to let their families shed tears and grieve for them? "

Xima lowered her head, looked at the cigarette case at hand, took out one and lit it. She had not smoked for a long time, and she was in a bad mood at this time.

This is what Baimi Yishu is all about. Last time, in order to cooperate with Le Xiao's speech on the barrier area, all people in the barrier area must be given a fixed quota of liquid food and water for each person. Big companies are not willing to produce out of the warehouse at all. In particular, the guys from the Food Association only gave a little bit. In desperation, they could only gather people from small and medium-sized liquid food production companies at the middle and lower levels.

The main source of liquid food produced by these companies is food residues in food. They crush all the purchased food residues directly, add some preservative industrial preparations and some nutrient solutions, and then produce them in batches.

Crack

A stone on the roof was crushed into powder in Xima's hands. It was such an important moment to reach a reconciliation with the Barrier District, but something went wrong in the middle. Xima looked at a can of liquid food at hand, and after scraping off the outer logo coating, the original Sanlian Company's logo was revealed.

Now there are messages in the Barrier District. Xima has asked major forces to directly kill the messages and contacted Tianhen to ask him to find a way to urgently transport some non-toxic liquid food to some places in the Barrier District where diseases and famine have already broken out.

This is the only solution that can smooth out this matter. Some teams have been attacked during the march, but Xima strictly ordered all teams to handle things smoothly. If they want food, they should be given food. If it is like the past, the little trust that has been built with great difficulty will vanish.

"Leave it to you to handle it!"

Xima still remembers that Tianhen said this to himself. In the past, if Section 3 was attacked, the army would basically be dispatched immediately to suppress the attacked site. If they resisted, they would basically only be eliminated.

Xima stood up and clenched her fists. If she continued as usual, she would return to the night when the whole city was under martial law. She jumped down directly.

"Confirm all the places where the famine occurred. If you confirm one, send it back immediately."

The directors in the room nodded one after another. Xima looked at the people in the town at this time with a happy face. According to the current location of the hemangioma outbreak, it can be roughly estimated that the harmful food produced by the original Sanlian Company distributed to the Barrier Area last time accounted for at least 30% of the total.

The reason why the disease is slow in the city is that according to subsequent investigations, Sanlian Company distributed these new liquid foods that use industrial raw materials to replace the original nutrients to the middle and lower levels of the city. There may be several cans in a box, but if you continue to eat this liquid food, you will definitely get sick in half a month. The 4th Department has already given an initial pathology report.

The cost of a can of this toxic liquid food is much lower than that of normal liquid food, and it is even more than 10 times cheaper than the cheapest liquid food made from food residues. The cost is almost negligible, and it is cheaper than a can.

At night, the lights were bright in the Western Guard Station. One after another, helicopters kept landing on the city wall. Tianhen stood on the city wall.

Next to him stood a group of merchants tied with ropes. They looked at the bottomless ravine under the city wall in horror.

"Lord Tianhen, spare us. We really just received instructions from the Food Association, and..."

Tianhen didn't say anything. The merchant who just came down behind him was tied up with ropes by the director and forced to stand on the city wall.

Tianhen pressed the brim of his hat with one hand, smiled coldly, turned his head and glanced at the merchants. For a moment, the merchants felt a chill.

"Today's weather is pretty good. I will use the reason that you are colluding with the rioters to interfere with the overall plan of our action department. What do you think?"

Suddenly, the merchants on the city wall cried and shouted, constantly talking about their own children, wives and elderly people at home, crying and shouting with snot and tears.
