Chapter 6: Is the safe house unsafe?
Walking out of the house and outside, Wang Fei observed his surroundings with his peripheral vision.
There was no sign of any undead, only two moons hanging high in the sky.
Following the instructions on the terminal, Wang Fei walked towards the safe house.
"Others can't even see the undead. How can this safe house be built to ensure safety?"
Wang Fei's heart was full of doubts. It could be said that humans knew nothing about the existence of the undead, if anything.
How did the Second Corps build a safe house under these circumstances?
Wang Fei was not clear, but he soon understood.
In the very center of the station, there stands a house made of glass, and the whole house reflects a light of pale red.
“Use the prompting opportunity.”
Wang Fei did not hesitate at all. Although the so-called safe house had a strange shape, Wang Fei subconsciously thought it was unreliable.
【Once you go in, you should probably keep silent or deny everything. 】
The text box prompt pointed out the direction for Wang Fei.
This so-called safe house is not safe at all!
Wang Fei did not show any abnormality on the surface and continued to enter the safe house as instructed.
Inside the safe house, Deputy Commander Chang Jun sat upright.
"Don't react first, read the contents of the paper in front of you and then answer my questions." Chang Jun said.
Wang Fei's eyes were fixed on the paper on the table, not daring to move away even a little.
It was not that Wang Fei was curious about the contents on the paper, but that behind Chang Jun, there were more than a dozen dark blue translucent humanoid creatures floating quietly.
This damn safe house is really useless!
There are more than a dozen undeads in total, and they are all in the safe house!
"If I had known, I wouldn't have wasted the opportunity to give you a hint."
Wang Fei was speechless. Who could have thought that those undead spirits would float around so blatantly?
Focusing his attention on the paper, Wang Fei began to check the contents.
1. No matter what you see in the room, please remain calm.
2. If you can see those things and they exist in the room, please just deny that you can see them.
3. If you really can’t see anything, just answer truthfully.
The content is very brief, which shows that the headquarters is also unsure whether the safe house has any effect.
After reading it, Wang Fei raised his head and looked in the direction of Chang Jun.
Chang Jun asked, "Can you see those things?"
Wang Fei did not hesitate and gave the answer directly: "No."
"Okay, you can leave now."
After getting the reply, Chang Jun let Wang Fei leave the safe house.
Wang Fei calmly stood up and left.
Wang Fei returned along the same route, and his heartbeat had not completely calmed down until he saw Zheng Yang and Fang Yu.
"what's the situation?"
"how's it going?"
The two couldn't wait to ask questions.
Wang Fei looked speechless: "What can I do? Just tell the truth."
After hearing what Wang Fei said, the two understood and stopped asking related questions.
A few minutes later, Zheng Yang's terminal rang, and it was Zheng Yang's turn to set off.
Lying back on the bed, Wang Fei closed his eyes and thought.
This time, the headquarters' work of collecting intelligence was in vain.
Those who can see dare not speak, and those who are powerful and capable cannot see it.
A deadlock has already occurred.
What Wang Fei didn't know was that as a senior officer who had served in the Second Corps for many years, how could Chang Jun be so incompetent.
...Half a day later, inside the safe house.
After meeting with more than 200 people for sixteen hours, Chang Jun already had the answer in his mind.
"Stop the meeting. This is going to be troublesome."
Chang Jun issued a new order. There was no need to meet with the additional 10,000 troops one by one as he had already figured out the pattern.
Those things have only attacked two people over eighty years old so far.
And both of them clearly showed that they could see them.
After that, he gave the order for everyone to pretend not to see them.
There have been no further attacks since.
It was through this situation that Chang Jun found a glimmer of hope to break the deadlock.
Human instinctive reaction!
As a normal person, once you see this kind of creature that is beyond your cognition and obviously terrifying, you will inevitably have an instinctive reaction.
Increased heart rate, shortness of breath, etc.
Among the more than 10,000 new arrivals, there must be quite a few who can see them!
But no one was attacked again, which shows that they are not very sensitive to human heartbeat, breathing, and even micro-expressions.
But Chang Jun himself is different.
The so-called life science and technology can enhance all kinds of human abilities in all aspects.
When vitality exceeds 10 points, it is called extraordinary.
When vitality exceeds 100 points, he is called a master.
Chang Jun is a master who can fully sense the breathing and heartbeat of people around him.
In other words, from the moment a person enters the so-called safe room, he knows whether the visitor can see them or not.
On this basis, drawing conclusions becomes a matter of statistics.
At the beginning of the change in the war situation, soldiers under the age of 70 began to die for no reason, so the key to the problem was naturally related to age.
The data sample of more than 200 people was just enough for Chang Jun to summarize the rules.
"You can only see it if you are over 100 years old and have never received any life science enhancement before 100 years old."
Chang Jun came to a conclusion, but because he couldn't see those ghost things, he couldn't tell anyone his conclusion.
Under the premise that the intelligence level of those things cannot be confirmed, once the conclusion is leaked.
It will be a fatal blow to the current war situation.
Chang Jun returned to the local headquarters with a worried look on his face.
In the headquarters room, a gray-haired old man was resting in bed.
His name is Qi Shi, and he is the commander-in-chief of the Yuanchen Star garrison.
At this moment, Qi Shi's arms and waist were all wrapped in bandages.
When the battle situation changed, the Second Corps was fighting with the C01 aliens.
During the battle, both sides suddenly suffered a large number of inexplicable casualties, causing great chaos. Qi Shi was seriously injured in this battle.
Alien C01 is the alien who opened the thirteen channels.
The reason why they were numbered C01 was entirely because of Jiang Tianxing, the then president of the Blue Star Astronomical Institute.
He believed that the aliens that invaded the blue planet were all beasts, and their abbreviations began with C, while the number 01 needed no explanation.
In addition to the number C, Jiang Tianxing also set up another number Z
Z stands for friendship. As for why it is Z, Jiang Tianxing’s explanation is this.
"Since they don't even dare to invade Blue Planet, they must be a small fry in the universe. Let's use Z as the number!"
Although Dean Jiang's numbering method is a bit aggressive, given Dean Jiang's current status in the Blue Star Federation, no one dares to criticize him.
No one dared to change the number set by President Jiang.
Fortunately, the people of Blue Star have not yet encountered the alien race numbered Z.
"Old Chang, what's the situation?" Qi Shi asked.
"The situation is not good and quite weird. We cannot rule out the possibility that aliens numbered C may present a situation of C02." Chang Jun shook his head and sighed.
