Chapter 1336: The Melancholy of an Old Friend

A few minutes later, inside Falcon Camp, the same video appeared on every working computer.

“Hello everyone, I am Su Qianrou.”

The working Falcon Members all put down what they were doing and gathered in front of the nearby computers.

“Starting today,” Su Qianrou continued on the screen, “we will welcome a new Chief Commander.”

It seemed she had used all her strength to say this sentence, so after she spoke, she let out a gentle breath.

And in front of the screen…

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then someone asked in confusion, “What does that mean? Personnel changes?”

“Never heard about it…” another person said, also puzzled.

“Where’s Yao Haidong?”

“Did he get promoted?”

In an instant, discussions erupted throughout Falcon Camp, but soon, their attention returned to the screen.

This Chief of Staff should give them an explanation…

And although the news was a bit unexpected, most of them actually didn’t feel much panic.

Su Qianrou on the screen lowered her eyes and was silent for a while, then finally raised her head and said, “From today on, we will merge with Miracle Base. The Chief Commander will be Ling Mo, and I will continue to serve as Chief of Staff, responsible for the work here.”

After dropping this bombshell, she barely gave anyone time to digest it before stepping aside.

The screen shook slightly. Then a bloody scene appeared.

Someone’s eyes widened as he muttered, “Isn’t that… the Meeting Room? These corpses are…”

“That’s Yao Haidong…”

“What happened?”

While these people were still at a loss, a squad of Soldiers had already blocked the entrance to Command Headquarters with guns.

“Everyone stand where you are and don’t move. As long as you don’t resist, no one will get hurt. Do you understand?” the leader said in a muffled voice. 𝘳Å𝐍ȪᛒЁ𝐬

These Soldiers were either unfamiliar faces or had their faces completely covered. Although there weren’t many of them, the terrifying aura they gave off made everyone too afraid to act rashly.

At this moment, the screen switched to a new face, and the background seemed to have changed as well.

“Hello everyone. I am Ling Mo.” When that young man spoke, almost everyone watching the computer screen changed their expression.

They were really not unfamiliar with this name… Even if they hadn’t known before, on the day the air force base split off, they all learned this name.

Still, many people were surprised by Ling Mo’s spirit and those deep eyes… This seemed a bit different from the Ling Mo they had heard about.

But when they suddenly shivered and recalled the bloody scene they had just seen, they abruptly realized.

This young man, who didn’t look fierce at all, had just used extremely violent means to take control of this Camp…

He was only more terrifying than what Yao Haidong and the others had said…

Although many of them knew… Ling Mo might not have taken control of the combat teams yet. After all, Su Qianrou, who appeared as his subordinate, had already been sidelined.

But that didn’t matter, because after the previous large-scale Zombie attack, all the teams were basically still stationed at the Protective Wall. The entire Falcon Camp was hollow.

By the time they got wind of it, Ling Mo had already taken control of the entire Command Headquarters.

Then having Su Qianrou step out would settle everything with a single blow.

Those Members wouldn’t care who was commanding them; the changes at the top meant nothing to them.

They knew Su Qianrou and trusted she wouldn’t harm them. That was enough.

As for Yao Haidong and those senior management? They couldn’t care less.

Ling Mo played his cards well… In an instant, almost everyone with a bit of brains figured this out in a cold sweat.

But there were still things they didn’t understand, like…

How did Ling Mo sneak in?!

How did the bloody battle in the Meeting Room happen so quietly?

Of course, some of them knew. To be precise, it wasn’t silent, but completed to the tune of a dance song…

“Let me introduce myself, I’m the boss of Miracle Base. Starting today, I’ll also be your boss.” Ling Mo spoke at a steady pace, sounding as if he were just chatting casually, but even though he wasn’t present, everyone instinctively fell silent.

“Don’t worry, I’m not someone who likes killing. In fact, for most of you, your lives and work won’t change much.” Ling Mo smiled slightly as he continued, “As for those who will see changes… they’re already dead.”

“Ah!”

A scream came from upstairs, and someone present recognized the voice.

“It’s Chief of Staff Li… Chief of Staff Wang’s deputy…”

“Also, I know many of you have family, loved ones, or friends living in A City. But don’t worry, you’ll be reunited with them soon,” Ling Mo said.

The entire Command Headquarters fell silent… They all heard the implication in Ling Mo’s words.

A City couldn’t be saved either…

Wu Pengfei was an ordinary Falcon Member who had stayed in the Base for a year. He had developed excellent marksmanship and become the captain of a squad of new recruits.

Looking at the faces behind him… these new recruits were both old and young, but their expressions were all the same.

They had all struggled hard just to survive until today… Most of them carried a deep sense of despair.

Wu Pengfei couldn’t help but recall that he had once been just like them, but he was luckier-he hadn’t struggled for long before getting a better chance at survival.

He owed it all to that old friend of his…

But he actually didn’t like to think back on those days. When the air force base split from Falcon, he had heard his superiors’ comments about that old friend more than once… you could even call it cursing. They had lost a safer means of transport.

Even though it was actually Falcon Camp that forced things, these people would still curse angrily. For them, the reasons didn’t matter; they only saw the bad result.

And in that situation… he hadn’t been able to step forward.

“That guy named Ling will be killed sooner or later, just wait.” His superior had once said that.

So Wu Pengfei sometimes wondered, that old friend, is he still alright now?

Maybe, until the day they died, they’d never see each other again?

“Ahem…” Wu Pengfei shook his head, tossing the melancholy from his mind, then shouted at the new recruits, “The bridge is just ahead, and it’s full of Zombies on the other side. Stay sharp!”

But just then, a new recruit looked up in surprise, and the others quickly looked to the sky as well.

Wu Pengfei was about to get angry… but he also heard that sound.

“Whirr, whirr, whirr…”

Overhead, a Helicopter was slowly passing through the sky…
