Chapter 678: Base 364 is under attack, return immediately!_2

Bai Ye’s voice was so quiet earlier that it hadn’t come through the loudspeaker, so the young man didn’t hear him at all. He nodded in agreement with Bai Zhengli’s words, about to say something more, when suddenly, he heard a sharp distress call. Startled, he became puzzled—why was there an alarm again? Could it be that zombies had appeared?

Not only was he puzzled, but so were the others in the vehicle, except for Wu Ke, who turned pale and hastily rolled down the window to look up at the sky. Indeed, as soon as she looked up, she saw a hawk flying toward them from afar. It was emitting a sharp warning call as it flew.

Seeing it appear, Wu Ke’s face instantly turned even paler! She had deliberately left this hawk at the Base to send messages. Its sudden appearance, issuing such a warning call, definitely meant something had gone wrong at the Base!

She puckered her lips and imitated a bird call. Quickly, the hawk landed on the roof of the car and then lifted its right claw in front of Wu Ke. She then saw that its claw was tied with a strip of cloth! The cloth had something red on it. At first glance, it looked like blood, which made Wu Ke’s heart sink even further.

She hurriedly untied the cloth strip and unfolded it to read the six red characters written with a marker—"Base under attack, return immediately!!!!!"

The writing was messy, obviously scrawled in haste, which showed just how urgent the situation was! Especially the red characters on the cloth strip, they painfully stung Wu Ke’s eyes!

By this time, the others had also gotten out of the car and worriedly gathered around to see. At a glance, they hadn’t even managed to read what was written on the cloth strip; the mere sight of the red ink made their hearts race!

The Base had a protocol for sending messages: use a black marker for normal situations and red for emergencies, making it clear at a glance.

And this time, not only was a red marker used on the cloth strip, but there were also several exclamation marks added at the end, indicating an incredibly grave situation that caused them to worry.

Someone quickly glanced at Bai Zhengli’s group and couldn’t help but suggest, "Ah Ke, should we call them over? These people seem strong, they might be able to help?"

Others were concerned, "But we still don’t know much about these people. What if we’re inviting wolves into our midst?"

Pressed for time, they didn’t have the luxury to debate, so they all looked to Wu Ke, waiting for her to make a decision. Wu Ke hesitated, then, suddenly turning her head to look at the Mutant Golden Eagle circling in the sky, she gritted her teeth and resolved, "Call them!"

The young man subconsciously picked up the loudspeaker, about to speak, but Wu Ke snatched it from him. Gripping the handle tightly, she called out in Bai Zhengli’s direction, "Our Base is under attack, the situation is urgent, can you friends please help us?"

Bai Zhengli and the others had watched the hawk arrive and Wu Ke rush out of the car anxiously, so they had guessed that something was wrong. Hence, hearing her plea, they made no excuses. Bai Zhengli said outright, "Lead the way, we’ll follow behind."

Wu Ke thanked them briefly and then hurriedly led her people back to the vehicles, starting the journey. Sitting in the car, she subconsciously checked the rearview mirror and saw that Bai Zhengli’s group was indeed following; this finally allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief.

While driving, the young man asked worriedly, "Ah Ke, are you sure it’s okay to bring them along?"

Leaning back in her seat, Wu Ke’s tense expression made her seem somewhat cold. She glanced at the young man and laughed self-mockingly, "In this world, what’s absolutely certain? Bringing them back to the Base is indeed a risk, but without them, how can we protect the Base? Even if these people aren’t good, could the situation really be worse than if Ji Chengtian’s people took control of the Base?"

Hearing this, the young man felt there was some truth to her words, and he subconsciously looked at the convoy following behind through the rearview mirror, sighing, "Let’s just hope our choice this time is right."

As he spoke, the young man suddenly stepped on the gas, accelerating forward. Seeing them suddenly speed up, Bai Zhengli and the others guessed the situation must be extremely urgent and said nothing, simply increasing their speed to follow.

Luckily, Wu Ke’s Base wasn’t far, and after driving for over ten minutes, they arrived. Perhaps they were lucky, as they didn’t encounter any Zombie Groups along the way—only a few scattered zombies, which were easily dealt with by Wu Ke’s Contracted Beast.

Upon reaching the Base, from a distance, they saw ten large trucks parked in front of them; on their roofs, people wielding rocket launchers were attacking the Protection Wall. Additionally, many superpower users were launching Wind Blades, Fireballs, Ice Arrows, and other attacks toward the Base.

Seeing this, Wu Ke and the others’ faces instantly darkened, and their brows furrowed deeply. Some, anxious by nature, even wanted to get out of the car and fight immediately. Wu Ke quickly halted her teammates and said in a deep voice, "Don’t act rashly! Turn around and go to the south gate first!"

The opponents were too numerous; if they approached rashly, they stood no chance and might even be captured as hostages! The most urgent matter was to enter the Base first, not the time for hot-headedness!

However, the sound of the car engines had already alerted the attackers. They recognized Wu Ke’s Contracted Beast at once, and someone grabbed a loudspeaker to shout, "Wu Ke! Persuade the people in the Base to stop resisting and surrender now!" Their voice carried laughter, sounding rather arrogant!

But the next moment, they saw the convoy following Wu Ke and were taken aback, loudly questioning, "Wu Ke! Who are those people behind you?" (To be continued.
