My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 40 On the verge of breaking out

The shock wave generated by the explosion, carrying various fragments, flew a distance in the air before gradually falling to the ground.

The explosion was so powerful that you could clearly feel the ground shaking. There was basically no hope that the sniper on the roof would survive.

In just a few breaths, there were gunshots and explosions. The fatigue from a sleepless night was swept away, and all I could see were people fleeing in panic.

Unlike the people who had no idea what was going on and were terribly frightened, Lu Bai remained as if nothing had happened, and even his tone of voice did not change much.

"It looks like it was to get rid of the sniper, but how was this done?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another loud roar was heard. This time the explosion occurred in the administrative building where the headquarters was located.

Looking up in the direction where the sound came from, through the billowing smoke, you can vaguely see a nimble figure trying to land on the ground with the help of equipment similar to a hook.

Seeing this scene, Lu Bai's mouth twitched.

A three-dimensional maneuvering device?

This really is the Survey Corps.

"Sure enough, they took action. They made such a big fuss just to get rid of the sniper on the commanding heights. What a big move." Zhuo Li squatted on the top of the tent, feeling deeply moved.

Xiao Xueyin frowned slightly, thinking, and said: "Aren't they afraid of being picked by others by doing this?"

The same is true.

Although the sudden explosion caught many death fighters off guard, they quickly reacted.

If you want to grab a "node", now is a great opportunity.

The situation changed rapidly. In an instant, more than a dozen figures rushed out of the crowd and quickly crossed the orange-yellow cordon. Among them, even a plump middle-aged woman could be seen.

The calmness in the second half of the night was more due to the strange balance that the deathmatches reached tacitly as none of them wanted to let others take advantage. But now the balance was broken by the Survey Corps.

The man in the hoodie looked at Xiao Xueyin, then at Lu Bai: "Should we go?"

"Don't worry, let's take another look."

Xiao Xueyin still couldn't figure it out: "The Survey Corps is so well prepared, is it just to help others?"

One thing that needs to be clarified is that the defense inside the building is not strong.

After all, there were only more than 500 troops left in the entire military base.

Because zombies appeared in various areas of the resettlement site, the rapid reaction force and two companies of soldiers were also transferred away.

The remaining 200-odd people not only had to guard the passages to some resettlement areas, but also had to ensure the safety of the administrative building and scientific research center.

Not long ago, Zhou Zongming brought a team of people from the building to check the situation.

At present, it would be considered good if we can still gather a platoon of troops inside the entire building of the scientific research center.

This means that there is no need for more death fighters to rush in later. The first wave of more than ten death fighters alone are enough to kill their way through the research center.

"Do we have to wait? What if the person who got the 'node' is a coward and just runs away? Then we may not be able to catch it back."

What Liu Yue said was not without reason, but judging from her excited expression, it was hard to say that she didn't just want to join in the fun.

"Don't worry about that."

Lu Bai touched his chin and said, "The Node won't be taken away so easily."

Hearing this, Xiao Xueyin glanced at him calmly. At the same time, fierce gunfire was heard from inside the research center building, and many bullets even ricocheted through the glass and fell outside the cordon.

One unlucky guy was hit directly by the bullet and let out a scream.

The people running around were all frightened. Although they still didn't know where to escape, it would definitely be okay to stay away from the scientific research center.

The advantage of being able to check the system panel at any time is that by comparing the current number of death fighters, you can determine the general situation in the research center.

Despite the frequent gunfire in the building, the number of death fighters has only dropped by two during this period.

Maybe it was Zhou Zongming who caused casualties to the Survey Corps.

I believe most of the death fighters are aware of this.

It was also based on this that more and more people could not hold back and followed the footsteps of the pioneers and rushed into the building.

As time went by, it became clear that the sound of gunfire was gradually weakening and the resistance within the research center was dying out.

Liu Yue was grinding the pebbles under her feet out of boredom, and she felt like stamping her feet in annoyance: "Are we just going to watch like this?"

"We really can't be impatient. Look, the other teams haven't shown up yet."

Xiao Xueyin patiently comforted him, "If nothing unexpected happens, the research center should have been surrounded by the Death Fighters by now."

Picking peaches is not that easy.

Even if you grab the 'node', you have to be able to keep it.

The current situation may be something that some people would like to see.

If you have confidence in yourself, allowing others to go in and bring out the "node" is actually a more risk-controlled approach.

To put it bluntly, no one can understand what the Survey Corps is thinking. Those who think more about it will worry whether there is some trap here. Since someone has already stepped on the landmine, they might as well continue to wait and see.

After a few minutes, the gunfire in the research center became sparse, and only occasionally could one hear someone firing a volley of bullets.

It didn't look like defending soldiers were firing, more like someone had picked up a weapon and was attacking a competitor.

The area outside the orange-yellow cordon was divided into two parts. Unlike the fierce fighting inside the research center, the area outside the cordon was unusually calm.

It can be felt that there are people hiding in many of the surrounding tents, obviously waiting for the moment when the "node" is taken out of the research center.

"The position of the 'node' has not changed." The man in the hoodie reminded.

Zhuo Li squatted on the top of the tent, reporting information non-stop: "I saw the Ten Blades team, at our ten o'clock direction, oh, at one o'clock direction, the gray school uniforms also appeared.

There are the most Death Fighters lying in ambush on the east side of the building. I can see 20 to 30 of them right now. Could it be that they all think that the 'node' will come out from that direction? Or should we not wait in front of the gate?"

Zheng~
Lu Bai drew out the Eight-sided Han Sword and said with a smile, "Relax, no need to be tense all the time. I'll go catch someone from the Survey Corps and ask him."

Judging from the noise, not only were the defenders in the research center killed, but even the gunfight on the other side was coming to an end.

There wouldn't be any suspense when more than twenty death fighters attacked a small group of soldiers without any intention. It was already great that they could delay the attack for so long.

"Alright."

Anyway, the "node" did not move, and Xiao Xueyin did not stop Lu Bai from acting alone. He just pointed to the walkie-talkie in his hand and added: "Be careful and keep the communication open at all times."
