Sensing the teasing in his tone, Yao Ran coughed and gently pushed him away.
"Stop messing around. There are a lot of monsters gathering at the back entrance. I will handle them. When you are done here, come help me."
Long Yu sighed again and answered obediently, "Alright."
After giving him a bottle of lake water, Yao Ran headed to the back entrance to deal with the monsters.
Half an hour later, Long Yu joined her. Together, they fought through the night, clearing out monsters until dawn, when Shi Xuan, Jia Xiang, Huang Qian, and Li Tianyu arrived to take
over.
Yao Ran and her friends, along with Li Tianyu and his teammates, took turns killing the deformed monsters every day. On the tenth day, the fog finally began to dissipate.
From the control room's main screen, Shi Xuan observed the clearer scene of the surveillance cameras and said to Long Yu, "Captain, visibility has increased to fifty meters today."
Hearing the good news, Long Yu responded, "Good. Du Zhaoyi should send his people today since the visibility has improved."
Shi Xuan nodded, "You guessed it right. Captain Li just informed me that Du Zhaoyi called him this morning to say that the team that will come to pick up the medicine has departed from the Juncheng Military Base at sunrise."
Upon hearing this, Yao Ran said, "That is good news. With the medicine, more soldiers might be saved from turning into a monster."
After a moment of thought, she turned to Long Yu and asked, "A Yu, should we visit your brothers in the First Army? I remember your friend Li Zhen, who visited the Ling Yuan Apartment Complex before. I wonder what happened to him and the soldiers we met in the mountains."
At her words, Long Yu and Shi Xuan's expressions changed slightly.
Noticing their gloomy faces and complicated emotions, Yao Ran continued, "A Yu, Shi Xuan, I want to recruit more people. How about asking your comrades if they want to join us?"
When they heard this, Long Yu and Shi Xuan exchanged glances. After a brief silence, Long Yu said, "Ran Ran, it might not be as simple as you think to recruit them."
"Why? Is it because most of them won't leave the military until they retire?" Yao Ran asked curiously.
Shi Xuan shook his head and explained, "Most of us joined the military out of a desire to serve the common people and protect our family and country. With that motivation, unless we are forced to retire or have injured on a mission, we will stay until the end of our service."
"In the current world, I think Li Zhen and the others will remain in the army until they either die on a mission or lose all faith in the military. However, with Commander Xu leading the First Army, it's unlikely they will leave due to disappointment."
Hearing this, Yao Ran felt a little disheartened. She sighed and muttered, "It's not easy to find good seeding and recruit people."
Seeing her sighing in disappointment, Long Yu held her hand and said, "If you want to recruit people, we can offer food, water, or medicine as payment."
"When Li Tianyu returns to the Juncheng Military Base, we should go with him. I will assign A Xiang and A Qian to take over our duties while we are away. With Brother Quan and the others here to support them, there shouldn't be any issues in our absence." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
