Chapter 161 A Little Starlight (Part )
Sometimes, in order to save time, even the huge corpses of mutant creatures were no longer covered. They were just piled on the truck and transported back to Jiangnan City frantically.

Ever since the true situation of the mutant creatures was revealed and the "Doomsday Simulation" video circulated around the world, the entire Chinese region has been filled with pessimism and even despair.

No one knows what they should do if the predictions in the "Doomsday Simulation" come true in the future.

Although the real situation has been revealed and doomsday simulation videos have become popular, this has, to a great extent, reignited the "infrastructure maniac" attribute of the Chinese region.

But many people participate in the construction of base cities just to avoid falling into complete despair.

Do your best, listen to destiny.

This is actually what most people in the Chinese area do when they are faced with a life-or-death crisis.

But now, something is different.

Right in Shuimu Prefecture - Jiangnan City, two groups of soldiers stood up!

The mutant monsters that were once thought to be capable of destroying an entire village by ordinary people have now turned into corpses and are being transported back to Jiangnan City in truckloads.

In an instant, a ray of light rose in the hearts of the people who heard the news and saw this scene.

In Jiangnan City, many people took time out to spontaneously gather along the route that vehicles transporting the mutant monster corpses must pass.

Every time a car passed by, there would be a burst of loud cheers from the crowds on both sides of the road.

This situation made every logistics staff member who drove the vehicle back to Jiangnan City burst into tears instantly.

Why join the army?
Isn't it just for this moment?

Gain recognition from your relatives, friends, and compatriots whom you have protected with your blood and your life.

Being needed by fellow countrymen.

Everything is worth it.

This sentiment was quickly transmitted to the two combat teams in the north and south through the logistics personnel.

On the fifth day, both teams burst out with unprecedented strength.

On that day, no one from either the northern or southern teams was killed. Instead, they advanced in unison, each killing more than a thousand monsters. They met in the western part of Jiangnan City at around one in the morning.

In five days, the two teams killed more than 5500 mutant creatures, including five beast generals.

The southern team led by Ye Zihong encountered three beast general-level mutant creatures that had not been recorded before.

However, the southern team consists of Ye Zihong, Li Kan, and Ling Xiaozhe, and there is also the beast general-level "Xiao Fu".

When it comes to dealing with mutant creatures, the three of them even have more advantages than the combination of Meng Xingchen and Wang Tong.

Ling Xiaozhe's ability to tame animals is not only about taming animals, but when activated at critical moments, she can also interfere with the minds of "Beast General-level" monsters.

……

There are also many people in places farther away who are paying attention to what is happening in Jiangnan City.

In five days, more than 5500 mutant creatures were killed, including 5 super-level ones.

This is an unprecedented achievement in land battles.

Even in the battles along the coast, there is currently only one battle record in the Chinese area, which can barely be compared with this suppression operation.

A sea defense battle on Qiong Island half a month ago.

Led by the military "Huashan", more than 5000 soldiers participated. In four days, they killed more than sea monsters that attacked the island.

It seems that the military is not fighting much to eliminate mutant creatures on land now.

That’s because the main forces of the military are now stationed in coastal areas, grasslands, snow-capped mountains, Gobi Desert, deserts... and some places that are rarely visited but where mutant creatures are extremely rampant.

In fact, disturbances involving dozens or hundreds of small-scale sea monsters have long been taking place around the world.

In areas where humans gather on land, the main force is still the "special operations team."

The pressure faced by the special operations teams in various places is no less than that of the military. In the past few months, most of the special operations teams in various places have suffered heavy losses and severe reductions in personnel.

In Jiangnan City, after Meng Xingchen became a specially hired non-staff member, he has not seen any reduction in the number of members in the special operations team.

The reasons for this are, firstly, Dong Nanbiao is very strong. Secondly, he is very strict in selecting members. In terms of total number, his team has always been the smallest among the action teams in various places.

Moreover, Dong Nanbiao was very protective of the members of the action team. For example, after Ling Xiaozhe was recruited into the special action team, most of the time he was reluctant to let her go out on adventures, so he kept her at the base for training until her animal taming ability improved.

……

The southern and northern teams met in the western part of Jiangnan City. Meng Xingchen first asked everyone to rest for a few hours.

This is the intention of Jiangnan City. There is no need for organization for the return of the two teams this time. A large number of Jiangnan City residents have received the news and spontaneously gathered on the West Suburb Ring Road to welcome them.

At 7:30 in the morning, the vehicle carrying the fighters arrived at the western suburbs of Jiangnan City.

Vehicles simply could not move normally because the crowd was too dense.

Countless flowers, gifts, drinks, food... were delivered to the soldiers sitting on the military vehicles, or carefully placed inside the vehicles.

The crowd's eyes were filled with tears, and all the soldiers cried as well.

Although RR has only been around for a few months, in reality, many people's family members, friends, or familiar people have already died at the hands of mutant creatures.

For the soldiers, five days of depression, unprecedented high-intensity fighting, and large groups of mutant creatures that they had never faced before made everyone extremely nervous.

To be honest, it is impossible not to hate Meng Xingchen.

Because beforehand, every soldier who received the order to come to Xingchen Security had never thought that they would face such a high-intensity and brutal battle the next day after arriving at the base. During these few days, most soldiers felt that they had fallen into hell and should not have come to Xingchen Security.

Some of them applied on their own initiative.

Because they have heard from various channels about the deeds of Star Security and the Star Team over this period of time.

So they also want to get involved and join the Star Security Team that has been fighting on the front line to eliminate biological creatures.

However, the reality made them come here full of excitement, but soon they fell into deep regret.

This Meng Xingchen and his Xingchen Squad are simply demons!
There was absolutely no need for them to engage in such high-intensity combat.

Can't you just take it slow?

Do you really have to torture everyone to death?
But at this moment, it's all worth it.

Although everyone still doesn't know why Meng Xingchen wanted to engage in such a high-intensity battle as soon as the team arrived.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Think about it, when everyone was stationed in various places in Shuimu Province before, were there no casualties?
I hid in the camp and shivered, worrying every day that the mutant creatures in the area would suddenly rush over. I was worried that when I was on patrol, I would be suddenly attacked by those mutant creatures.

On the contrary, when they were stationed in various places outside, the overall casualty ratio was much greater than that of this mission of Xingchen Security.

The more than 1,000 special operations and logistics personnel transferred this time actually had comrades around them, and some of them were killed or injured while guarding the camp or performing patrol missions.

Sometimes, a company would suffer dozens of casualties when going out on a mission.

……

The combat vehicles moved slowly, and when Ling Xiaozhe passed by riding a giant mutant bat, the crowd burst into extremely warm applause.

The staff responsible for maintaining order have previously notified everyone that there will be powerful mutant creatures that have been tamed by humans participating in the battle, so everyone should not worry when they see them.

Xiaofu is nearly four meters long, and his scaly wingspan is more than ten meters. When this size body flies low, it actually gives people an extremely strong sense of oppression.

But at the same time, such powerful mutant creatures can be used by humans, which adds some hope to people's hearts.

When faced with powerful mutant creatures, humans are not completely helpless.

We drove into the western suburbs of Jiangnan City at 7:30 in the morning, and did not arrive at the northern suburbs until nearly noon.

The crowd here is equally dense.

"Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah..."

A giant man who looked like an ape was also standing behind the crowd, cheering with his arms raised.

Meng Xingchen, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the first military vehicle, saw him at a glance.

One of the eight heroes of the future, the ferocious polar bear - Sokolov.

This person arrived in Jiangnan City two days ago.

In the past two days, he would report to the Starlight Research Institute once every morning, noon and evening to ask whether Meng Xingchen had returned.

But Cattelan, who was guarding the Starlight Research Institute, refused to let him in.

Now, there are a large number of precious items and important researchers in the institute.

If other people come, Cattelan can ignore it.

But Cattelan didn't dare let Sokolov in.

Because this person can threaten the safety of the Starlight Research Institute.

Even if Cattelan was guarding here and was assisted by a beast general-level mutant giant tiger, he was not completely sure that he could stop this person and prevent him from causing any damage.

Sokolov did not explain his purpose, but just said that he had fulfilled the bet and wanted to meet Boss Meng again.

Cattelan reported the matter to Meng Xingchen, but still refused to let him enter the Starlight Research Institute.

However, Meng Xingchen received an email from Sokolov two days ago.

Inside the email was a photo of Chen Luo’s body being separated.

But other than that, nothing was said.

Meng Xingchen's understanding of Sokolov is limited to the fact that he is one of the future "eight heroes of mankind."

Another thing is that this person has a strong will to fight.

That's all.

In this case, he would definitely not let Sokolov enter the Starlight Research Institute. He would just let him stay outside until the mission was over.

Finally returning to the base, Meng Xingchen jumped off the vehicle.

"Chief!"

Several soldiers guarding the entrance to the garrison immediately raised their hands and saluted.

But before yesterday, this group of soldiers transferred from all directions did not call him that.

Even a few days before this mission, all the soldiers called him "Boss Meng" when they reported to him.

"Yeah." Meng Xingchen nodded at a few people, then waved to Sokolov who was squeezing over from the edge of the crowd in the distance, and to Cattelan who was following not far behind him with a vigilant look on his face, signaling them to come over.
