Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

Before Huo Ling and his group of five could speak, Hong Wu calmed the situation down and spoke up for them, saying, "Look at you, numbers don't affect strength."

Hong Wu was a shrewd man; he could tell at a glance that this five-person team was no ordinary person.

Luwei chimed in, "This mission is tied to level and combat power. The official requirement is that the ability level be no lower than level five, and the team must have an SS-level combat power."

The fact that all five of them met the standard is enough to demonstrate their strength. Their abilities are at least at the fifth level, and perhaps far more than that.

The newly arrived squad leader, Yao Liang, reluctantly shut his mouth and said no more.

Hong Wu briefly explained the situation, stating that each team's position would be determined by drawing lots. "The positions are divided into three categories: perimeter guard, encirclement and suppression, and reconnaissance."

Because encircling this location requires withstanding a large amount of firepower from the swarm, and timely support for the outer perimeter and reconnaissance teams is also needed. If a hive is encountered and the queen bee is found, the people encircling the location must rush there. Therefore, a large number of people are required for this location.

Therefore, the encirclement and suppression requires three teams: one for the outer perimeter and one for reconnaissance.

Hong Wu said, "Look closely! I didn't cheat. You can use your superpowers to scrutinize me as much as you like."

He finished speaking with a smile, and then tossed the five small pieces of paper in his hand.

Finally, scatter it on the ground.

"Come on! Everyone draw a card, and we'll take turns going head-up."

Hong Wu gestured for him to enter.

He said he'd give him whatever was left over.

Luwei said no, she looked at everyone and said, "If we're going to be fair, then let's be fair to the end."

She said the order would be determined by rock-paper-scissors.

Everyone had no objections now.

After determining the order, the team leaders drew lots in turn.

Lorna couldn't help but sigh, "The people in the base think that the combat squads are all cool, but they're actually so naive. They feel like a bunch of big kids."

However, these older kids are rushing to the front lines, which is risking their lives.

It's not fair to say who's more calculating.

Gao Lei and Wu Zhe were quite nervous. "I wonder how Huo Ge's luck is?" "Exactly!"

To be honest...

Indeed, this location is safer because there are more people there.

But it's also more tiring.

No matter which side has a problem, as the middleman, you have to run around to both sides.

This really tests your endurance.

However, for such large-scale, high-risk missions, the teams that can come are all well-rounded and capable.

The team has all sorts of talented people, so any position is fine. In smaller missions or with lower-level ability users, the positions would probably be arranged based on ability and combat strength, and it would be impossible to draw lots like this.

It's like playing a tower defense game; these people can go on any route right now.

So that's how you can play.

The big shots are indeed capricious.

Huo Ling ultimately chose the encirclement position, as did Lu Wei and Yao Liang. Yang Zijie's team drew the least desirable scout position, while Hong Wu's team was positioned on the outer perimeter. The positions were now finalized.

Yang Zijie couldn't help but grumble, "What bad luck! I chose the most dangerous one!"

Zhou Yang also looked distressed, "It's just me and my grandma left in my family. If something happens to me, what will happen to my grandma? How will she manage all by herself..."

His team members looked ashen-faced. Go investigate the hive? What if they stumbled upon it and those killer bees swarmed out and devoured them?

Reed looked down on their cowardly behavior, frowning as she said, "If you're afraid, why did you come? Besides, we'll lure some killer bees out of the hive first, then you can scout ahead. What are you afraid of?"

She simply couldn't resist.

Luwei was indeed young and not very composed, but she was brave and skilled in battle and looked down on her opponent.

Yang Zijie wanted to say something else.

Hong Wu took him away, saying, "Come on, little brother, let's talk in private."

He whispered to him, "How about I switch with you? My team isn't picky."

Reed said no, "That's a bad rule! If that's the case, why bother drawing lots?"

Yang Zijie also got angry, shoving Hong Wu aside, "I don't need your pretense. I've wanted to say this since the beginning: you're incredibly fake in your enthusiasm, you know? It's like you're the only good person here! You're making me feel like I'm caught in the middle!"

Barley and wheat said that Yangzi Jie was really heartless, and Hong Wu had helped him out of kindness, yet he still acted like this.

Yao Liang's team was completely bewildered and turned to Huo Ling's side to say a few words.

Meanwhile, Huo Ling was instructing his teammates to be careful and making final preparations, not getting involved in any of this.

This is this.

Yao Liang was almost in tears as he participated in such a large-scale, high-risk mission for the first time.

Why are all the experts so unreliable?

He originally intended to come and learn, and then train his team.

How could this be the result?

Lin Shuangshuang wasn't worried at all. Disagreements on missions were common, and it was normal to argue until one's face turned red. In fact, it wouldn't delay the mission, and if they really disagreed, there was no need to dwell on it.

Just focus on your own tasks and prioritize ensuring the safety of your team.

as predicted.

Once everyone's positions are finalized and everyone is in place, all those conflicts and frictions can be temporarily set aside, and cooperation is essential.

Otherwise, their own mortality rate would skyrocket.

At least until they are absolutely safe, no one will easily fight amongst themselves.

After arriving in the town.

Hong Wu and his men immediately dispersed and quietly surrounded the town.

The remaining four teams continued their incursions.

Patrol bees, smaller in size, have appeared in the vicinity.

It kept flapping its wings.

It makes a "buzzing" sound.

Everyone was on high alert.

Hong Wu's voice rang in everyone's earpieces, "Our team is all in position. We're about to begin the blockade. Six hours is the time limit. You need to act quickly and finish this within six hours if possible."

He gave everyone a warning because once the lockdown began, it would inevitably cause a swarm of rioters.

【receive! 】

【clear!】

【learn!】

【clear!】

After receiving confirmation from the four squads, Hong Wu activated the blocking skill.

The earth began to shake.

The surrounding space distorted, and with a hum, a net of light stretched out outside the entire town, making it impossible for small mutated creatures to pass through.

Hongwu said his ultimate move could seal off creatures below six stars, confuse their senses, and make them wander in a maze. However, according to official predictions, the Queen Bee is at least mid-eight stars, so his net can't stop her. But as long as she runs out and breaks through his net, he can leave a mark on her.

The queen bee's location will be exposed, and then her teammates will hold her off.

Knowing that time was of the essence, everyone immediately launched the second phase of the plan: to draw fire and entice the swarm out to be wiped out.

The network blockade alerted some of the patrolling bees, resulting in a steady stream of four- and five-star killer bees flying out.

No one hesitated any longer.

Wu Zhe immediately used his earth-based abilities to overturn the ground, while Luo Na unleashed a barrage of fireballs, randomly attacking the dilapidated houses. Together with the other two teams, they created an even bigger commotion, attracting the killer bees.

Yang Zijie led his team deeper into the area to conduct further investigation. One of his teammates actually possessed a group invisibility skill, and the nine of them instantly disappeared, each dispersing to explore.

Huo Ling stared at the entire scene, trying to use his mental abilities to locate the Queen Bee, but his attempts were blocked. As expected, the difference in levels was insurmountable.

He had no choice but to try a different approach: using his psychic abilities to manipulate the bees into killing each other, and incidentally, to try and find out where they came from.

You shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket, and you can't completely trust outsiders.

It's more reassuring to be in control of the whole situation yourself.

As a result, his wife ran away. Huo Ling turned around abruptly and saw Lin Shuangshuang fighting with the killer bees with a steel pipe. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It startled him.
