Outside Jiangnan City District.
Buzz buzz buzz~
With a roar, three helicopters flew in from the distance.
Above a smooth piece of ground, the three helicopters hovered for a few moments before a dozen figures quickly descended from the sky.
The people who descended were the three Elite Squads dispatched by Jianghai Base City for this mission.
A moment later, the helicopters flew away.
On the ground, the three squads gathered together under the leadership of their respective captains.
"Captain Wang, you are more familiar with Jiangnan City District than us. I think from now on, we should follow your arrangement! What's the plan for the next step?"
Captain Li, with a head full of white hair, looked at Wang Lei and suggested.
The hidden enemies are undoubtedly strong. If the three squads fight separately, they may easily be picked off one by one. Only by acting together are they safest.
"Yes, Captain Wang, we don't know this place well. The little information we have can't compare to your firsthand exploration. Don't be modest, let's follow your command for this operation."
Beside him, Captain Zhang, with a shining bald head, smiled as he removed the cigarette from his mouth.
They are not afraid of taking responsibility but truly unfamiliar with the situation in Jiangnan City District.
The two squads were responsible for other directions within Jianghai Base City and had never dealt with Jiangnan City District.
"Since both captains have said so, then I will shamelessly assume command of this operation. If there are any shortcomings, please feel free to supplement."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lei hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
After all, before coming, the top command had already named him to arrange the next action, and he couldn't refuse.
Seeing Wang Lei agree, Captain Zhang and Captain Li both smiled, the former asked cheerily, "So Captain Wang, how should our teams proceed next? Do we go directly into Jiangnan City District, or do we send one or two people as the vanguard to scout the situation inside the district first?"
Recalling when his squad entered Jiangnan City District last time and found all Evolved Zombies had disappeared, Wang Lei could almost ascertain that the entire Jiangnan City District was filled with the enemy's eyes and ears.
Those Evolved Zombies likely died at the hands of Evolvers inside the district.
In such circumstances, the three squads with fifteen people are too large to move in undetected.
Then their advantage of enemy in the open and us in the dark will be lost.
So, recklessly sending personnel into the district, in Wang Lei's opinion, is inappropriate.
"Gentlemen, we don't know how many Evolvers are hidden inside Jiangnan City District.
But I estimate it's not a small number. To prevent being discovered early, I think we should let someone with reconnaissance ability scout inside first."
Wang Lei pondered for a moment and proposed to the two captains.
Upon finishing his words, Wang Lei looked at Captain Li.
Captain Zhang, beside him, mirrored Wang Lei's action, also shifting his gaze to Captain Li.
Regarding the situation of the three squads, the captains were actually very familiar.
The recon specialist Wang Lei suggested was most suitable from Captain Li's squad.
This Evolver's codename was — Falcon.
Before the apocalypse, he was a professional hunter who specialized in raising hawks to assist in hunting.
After the apocalypse, the hawk he raised became a Mutated Fierce Beast but remained loyal to him. The Evolver also awakened an ability to sign contracts with certain creatures, enabling vision sharing and mutual understanding with the pet.
By contracting his hawk, Falcon naturally gained outstanding reconnaissance abilities, valued by the Base City, and was recruited into the official unit.
It's not that the other two squads didn't have Evolutionary recon specialists, but they needed close reconnaissance, risking discovery by enemies in the district.
Falcon, however, wouldn't have such concerns. If a hawk flew into the district, even if discovered, suspicion would be minimal.
"Captain Li, we might have to trouble your squad for this scouting task," Wang Lei said solemnly.
Captain Zhang nodded in agreement.
Captain Li understood their meaning and didn't refuse. He also agreed with Wang Lei's scouting proposal.
Then Captain Li nodded and immediately ordered his team behind him, "Falcon, let your treasure scout ahead! Stay safe and don't fly too low!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Among the four people behind Captain Li, a middle-aged man with weathered features hurriedly stepped forward after hearing the order.
He had a lean build, carried a massive alloy bow, and wore a quiver at his waist.
He nodded to the three captains.
Next, Falcon closed his eyes and began communicating with his treasured pet.
Shriek!
An ear-piercing cry came from above everyone's heads.
In the sky, a giant Black Hawk with a wingspan of three zhang, eyes sharp, received the order and suddenly shook its wings, stirring strong winds as it dived towards Jiangnan City District.
Everyone looked up, watching the hawk fly into the district.
"Captain Li, honestly, I envy you! How come you got such a useful recon specialist from the Base City for your squad? It would be great to have one in my squad."
Glancing at Falcon, who was in sync with the Black Hawk, Captain Zhang touched his head and commented enviously to Captain Li.
Falcon's reconnaissance ability is truly handy, allowing for pet scouting without Evolvers taking risks, both safe and stealthy.
In every Base City mission, the most dangerous role was the squad's scout.
Often needing to explore unknown hazardous areas, once exposed, retreat is impossible, resulting in direct sacrifice.
So far, Captain Zhang's squad has already sacrificed two recon specialists.
Fortunately, Base City timely replenished the team when there was a vacancy.
"There's nothing I can do! Falcon was supplied by Base City, I didn't contribute at all."
Hearing this, Captain Li smiled, ever since having Falcon as a recon specialist in the squad, mission safety had greatly increased.
They could always thoroughly investigate enemy situations without alerting them.
While the two were chatting.
Among the crowd, Wang Lei gazed at Jiangnan City District not far away, his eyes flickering with a hint of fierceness.
Returning here again, images of his two teammates' tragic deaths kept flooding his mind.
The enemy not only killed them but also hung their bodies to shame them.
This time, he must uncover the secrets of this district!
