You have no alerts.

    The calling sound lasted for a full half minute before dying down, then cut off, leaving only the crackling static and muffled rustling.

    “Why does it keep repeating that one sentence over and over for so long?” Shen Shu strolled over from behind.

    Xie Yi didn’t turn around. “This call seems to be an unreceived message.”

    He didn’t know if he was talking to himself or to Shen Shu.

    After saying that, he didn’t speak again, but busied himself with his Smart Terminal, trying to extract the waveband information from the output end to check the specific time.

    With a buzz, the Smart Terminal screen finally popped up a jump prompt, and the next second a section of waveband information was displayed.

    Xie Yi’s gaze fell on the waveband information that appeared, pausing when he saw the call time and reception time: this call was made less than ten minutes after the safety zone attack alarm was issued, but the reception time was just now.

    Normally, upon receiving the news of a safety zone attack, all contact stations would immediately contact their respective regional headquarters. Why didn’t the contact station receive the headquarters’ call even ten minutes after the incident? Could it be… that the contact station was the first to be attacked?

    If that’s the case, then the other contact stations…

    Xie Yi’s heart sank. He didn’t dare to think about it too much for a moment, and instead tried to use the communication equipment to contact the headquarters, but all his efforts were rewarded with a series of busy tones.

    Even the large communication equipment at the contact station couldn’t connect to the signals from the external high-tower signal points.

    Xie Yi let out a light breath and lowered his head to reach behind the device.

    He remembered that all communication equipment had a hidden amplitude adjustment button, which was connected to a special carrier signal amplitude. This was specifically used to receive messages in an emergency state when communication was cut off.

    Got it.

    Feeling his fingertip touch a different spot, Xie Yi pressed down hard.

    Immediately, all the lights on the communication equipment lit up, and a holographic screen popped up, with dense codes running rapidly.

    Nearly a minute later, a “beep” was heard, and accompanied by a hissing current, a new voice came from the communication equipment again.

    “This message is a contact-type blind broadcast.”

    “It is currently confirmed that the main force of Mutated Entities attacking the safety zone is an unknown Mutated Entity that landed on the coast late last night. The characteristics are gray-green, fish-headed and human-bodied, and it can summon and control other Mutated Entities.”

    Hearing the words “summon and control,” Xie Yi’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Shen Shu, but the information received by the communication equipment continued to play.

    “All contact stations in the three high-risk Enclosed Zones are out of contact. All Enclosed Zones have now been confirmed to be out of control.”

    “From the first alarm sounded until now, we have received a total of eight safety zone attack alarms. The attacked safety zones are concentrated near the coastal areas and are rapidly advancing inland, with a small number of attacked safety zones close to high-risk Enclosed Zones.”

    “Please all safety zone security defense teams hurry to transfer ordinary civilians. For safety zones that cannot be transferred smoothly due to the attack, the safety defense teams of safety zones that still have rescue capabilities have arranged squads to go to assist.”

    “All field team members who receive this blind broadcast message and are wandering outside, please assist the rescue squads according to your location. If there are no rescue squads nearby, please immediately find a way to return to your safety zone to support.”

    “The seventy-first contact-type blind broadcast ends.”

    The communication equipment stopped speaking instantly, and a map suddenly unfolded on the holographic screen.

    Neither Xie Yi nor Shen Shu looked at it.

    “What do you think?” Xie Yi said, “Those unknown Mutated Entities that landed on the coast can also summon and control other Mutated Entities.”

    “Is the captain asking me?” Shen Shu tilted his head to look at him, his tone lazy. “I don’t know, but if I could meet them, I’d really like to try and see who can control more of them, or see if I can directly control them.”

    “So, captain, are we really going straight back?” A look of eagerness appeared in Shen Shu’s eyes.

    “With your half-baked skills?” Xie Yi gave him a speechless look. “Better save it. Don’t die without even knowing how.”

    After saying that, Xie Yi turned to look at the map.

    The map marked five very conspicuous rescue points, one of which was not particularly far from the No. 9 contact station where they were located.

    It was a medium-sized safety zone called Xin Nan.

    The remaining four points extended inland from the coastal area, gradually approaching Jin City.

    –Jin City.

    Xie Yi suddenly thought of You Xue, who had previously set off for Jin City. He didn’t know how things were going, but Sister Meng had said that if Xiao Ze was also there, they should take care of each other.

    Sister Meng, and Sister Meng and the others, if they were still alive, they would also try to find communication tools to understand the situation and return to headquarters.

    “Xin Nan is the only safety zone among the rescue points that is close to a high-risk Enclosed Zone. It must have been attacked because the high-risk Enclosed Zone was out of control.” Xie Yi said in a deep voice, “At this time, only three large safety zones still have rescue capabilities. Kui City is the closest to the high-risk Enclosed Zone. The team coming here to rescue must be from Kui City. We go to meet up with the rescue team, and we can…”

    Before Xie Yi could finish speaking, the Smart Terminal on his wrist suddenly vibrated violently again!

    This time, he didn’t even need to lower his head to look at the Smart Terminal. He saw that the original map on the holographic screen of the communication equipment was instantly replaced by countless dense black codes, which converged, shattered, and disappeared. A number 8 floated up, broke apart, and then coalesced into a 9.

    Xie Yi stared at the 9, took a deep breath, and quickly recalled the previous map and transmitted it to the Smart Terminal, “Let’s go, find a way to get to Xin Nan.”
