Chapter 348 The Ghost of Signal

-After night stationing, the team exploring signals set off again and arrived at the open area under the plateau. The formation also changed. The chosen one led by Sylette walked in the front, which was to facilitate charge in a sudden encounter.

After all, that strange signal source was judged to be artificial. If there were really humans, they still couldn't figure out whether it was an enemy or a friend, and the other party did not go to Xia State like Sylette to ask for help. If they directly start fighting, they must at least be able to defend themselves.

Several tactical teams operated alone, with a certain distance from the large force, and maintained contact through short-distance radio. If the situation changes, they had to judge the situation by themselves, or interspersed or supported or detoured to attack the enemy.

"Brother Liu, you take the team to the right side of the route to cover the flank. If the front is started, you will directly join the main force to support it. Team 16 will go to the rear to hang it. If it is a positional battle, you will just go and take your butt."

"Okay."

"yes."

Everyone immediately went to execute the orders they received, and Xu Ling led Team Ninth to walk on the left side of the team, a distance apart.

The troops continued to advance according to the established formation and moved in the direction they had determined before. It should be the Jiaoma City of Manling Kingdom. As they got closer and closer to the destination, some remains of the cities could be seen.

Highways, service areas, gas stations, and of course, have now become ruins of vegetation.

While moving forward, Xu Ling asked the team members to use the terminal to record the appearance here. After returning, he could deliver it to the expert group as video data to analyze the situation here.

After moving quickly for a while, Xu Ling received Chu Xiaojun's instructions on the radio.

"Each unit is on guard.

He knew that this must be because he was approaching his destination, so he said to Lin Ling: "Go ahead and take a look." The latter nodded and disappeared directly into the jungle.

Xu Ling asked others to station in various directions. The danger level of this place was higher than that of the snowfield, which was not much different from the Green Edge Kingdom that he passed on the way to Currywush. If a beast king led a high-intensity beast group to attack, it would be a fierce battle.

Not long after, Lin Ling came back and said to everyone: "You can see the ruins of a city ahead. It is judged that it is Jiaoma City, and the monsters are relatively inactive."

Xu Ling nodded slightly: "Okay, then let's wait and see if there are any new orders. Everyone should hurry up and make quick supplies."

At this time, you have no time to stop and cook with fire. You can only eat some dry food you carry to replenish your energy.

Suddenly, a new command came from the radio.

"All members shrink the formation."

Chu Xiaojun called back all the people who went out, including the scouts.

Xu Ling took people to meet with the main force and asked, "Sir, what happened?"

When moving, gathering all people together is not a regular option.

Chu Xiaojun replied: "We are going to enter the Jiama City now."

"ah?'

Not only Xu Ling, but many others were also a little stunned. It was not a very wise choice to enter the ruins of the city without a comprehensive reconnaissance.

The large number of people will cause great movement, which means it is easier to attract the attention of the monsters, unlike a team of several people who can sneak in silently.

Chu Xiaojun said, "I just detected the signal again, pointing to the city of Jima, but the bad news is that it is rapidly decaying. I am worried that if I drag it down, it will disappear directly, so I must hurry up."

In this way, naturally no one can object. The purpose of their trip is to find the unknown signal source and not to return without success.

So everyone began to move into the city in a tight line.

Following the broken highway to the edge of the city, the speed of travel slowed down significantly. Although I was eager to pursue my goal, safety still needs to be considered. Without early reconnaissance, I could only act with caution.

The engineer in charge of detecting the signal fiddled with the instrument again, and then reported: "Sir! The signal has not continued to decay." This is good news, Chu Xiaojun said: "Where is the direction?"

"Sir, you have to go deeper. The distance should not be too far. Judging from the strength of the signal, it should be near the city center.

"Okay, keep moving forward."

Chu Xiaojun gave the order and everyone continued to set off.

Less than an hour after leaving, Xu Ling approached him and whispered: "Sir, do you think something is wrong?"

"There is a problem, the monster seems too sparse.

After entering the city, the team was only scattered by monsters and did not encounter large attacks. This is unusual. In the ruins of the city, beast kings often occupy it.

It is a good thing to say that few monsters are good, but there is an old saying that something abnormal will happen. In the occupied areas, everything unusual may mean danger.

"But we have to carry out our mission and we can only be more vigilant, after all, we know nothing about the truth now.

This is also helpless. The team is now back to the normal state of overseas investigations. They are all soldiers. It is impossible to withdraw if there is danger, let alone this is just a potential danger.

After continuing to move deeper into the city for a while, Xu Ling found that the city of Jiaoma was not exactly the same as the dead city I saw in Green Edge Country before.

There are very few complete buildings left here, and almost all the high-rise buildings collapsed, just like a monster that not only slaughtered all humans, but also deliberately destroyed all the remains of civilization, and even lifeless buildings are unwilling to let go.

“I’ve found it.”

Xu Ling received Liu Tao's call in the wireless radio, hurried over, and then saw the so-called discovery, a tree stump remaining on the land.

"This is a chainsaw."

He understood what Liu Tao meant. A tree that was as thick as an adult's waist had grown here, but it was sawed off by something similar to a chainsaw, and the tree body disappeared without a trace. Obviously, this should be logging.

The conclusion may sound stupid, but the meaning behind it is that humans have indeed been active here, after all, Warcraft will not use chainsaws to cut down trees.

After hearing this news, everyone in the team was very excited. Sylette lay on the tree stump and looked at it for a while and said, "The broken mouth is very new, conservatively estimated that it will not exceed one month at most."

He called the engineers over and kept using the instruments to detect them. The team followed him in the direction of the signal source and finally came to a ruin in the city center area.

"Sir, the signal source is here."

After several confirmations, the engineer finally said confidently.

"here?"

The people next to them were puzzled. There was only a piece of rubble and ruins where they were stationed. There was no decent wall. How could the signal source be here?

However, the engineer ignored the other people's questions. His face changed, he fiddled on the instrument for a while, and then shouted in a low voice: "The intensity has begun to rise again!"

As soon as he said that, everyone immediately became alert, and the sound of jamming loading and the sound of weapons being unscathed. Everyone believed that the increase in signal strength might mean that something was about to appear.

However, a gust of cold wind blew, and nothing happened.
