Superstars of Tomorrow

After staring at Lin Kaiwen for two seconds in silence, Fang Zhao flipped the camera handed over by Lin Kaiwen: "No need."

Afterwards, Fang Zhao continued to help the injured man treat the wound with the medicine bottle.

During the era of the annihilation of the century, almost every day we would encounter situations like today - being attacked suddenly and feeling the threat of death.

At that time, it was simply a normal situation, and no one knew what would happen to him in the next moment. But now is the new century, and for those who are accustomed to living peacefully on weekdays, such an attack is like the end of the world, and they are under great psychological pressure.

In fact, according to the habit of Mieshiji, Fang Zhao wrote a will not long after he was reborn and saved it in his personal terminal, but he would revise it every once in a while because his own property was changing. And if one day he suddenly dies due to an accident, once the death is judged, the will saved in the personal terminal will be automatically disclosed.

However, the current situation is actually not too bad. According to Fang Zhao's own judgment, there is no chance of survival. At least now they are all taking refuge in the basement, listening to the movement, and there are not many attackers.

But Lin Kaiwen didn't know anything. This was the first time he had personally experienced such a thing. Although he had encountered some crisis situations before, it was far less stressful than this time. When the explosion happened just now, he even thought that I will burp this time.

However, as a reporter, Lin Kaiwen is very good at weighing the pros and cons. After weighing the pros and cons, he made up his mind. Although we don't know whether we can survive this crisis safely, it is also an opportunity. Since he can't get out of the predicament now, he must seize this opportunity. He wants to record this real incident, and report the real situation on the battlefield just like the outstanding predecessors of the "First Front" newspaper. The difference is that he does not have such a high level of awareness as "Fearless", and the spiritual level is still at the level of "terrified to death but forced to do nothing".

If he can't survive, what he recorded may make him a member of the journalists' hall of fame, and his portrait will also be admired by people. In the future, when he makes documentaries or educational films, it may become the reality of it. Video excerpts.

And if he can survive this catastrophe, he... will be prosperous!

Although there are no express regulations in the circle, reporting on entertainment programs and reporting on battlefield conditions, the latter is much more compelling! Even current affairs news is far inferior to the gold content of battlefield reports! But professional war reporters don't show their faces, and amateur reporters don't want to encounter a real war, and they are easy to lose their lives. But once encountered, no one is willing to give up such an opportunity!

Taking a deep breath, Lin Kaiwen tried his best to calm down the fear in his heart, controlled the camera again with trembling hands, and continued to record: "I can still hear some large and small sounds, and there is an exchange of fire above. The defense system blocked it, and failed to block it all for the third time, we were all injured..."

Lin Kaiwen originally wanted to shoot Fang Zhao first, but with a glance, he found that Fang Zhao was the only one who could be regarded as "unscathed". Not wanting to slap himself in the face, Lin Kaiwen controlled the camera and turned towards Fan Lin and the other experimenters, skillfully taking only a shot of Fang Zhao's back.

As a reporter with many years of work experience, although it is the first time to shoot in such a situation, Lin Kaiwen is very good at controlling the camera images. The images captured by the camera can exaggerate the atmosphere, capturing the mess in the room and the tragic situation of the wounded. After coming down, he didn't insist on words, he was good at speaking with the camera, and the words only played an auxiliary role, and the plain words could explain the pictures in the camera more clearly.

"I guess the identity of the attacker this time is more likely to be a terrorist, and it should have been planned for a long time..."

Once his mind was turned, Lin Kaiwen's thinking became much clearer, unlike the state where his brain was stuck when he was frightened at the beginning.

Lin Kaiwen analyzed the incident over there, from the disconnection of the signal to the loss of contact with the base, all the way to the current situation.

Fang Zhao helped to administer medicine to the wounded while listening to Lin Kaiwen's analysis of the attacker's identity.

After being reborn for so long, Fang Zhao has never experienced war. The life in the New Century City is very peaceful. Even if there are things like Marquis Su in Muzhou, in general, it is still peaceful. After all, the world is united, and so are the continents. Cooperative relationships become one, but in invisible places, there are still disputes. There are struggles within the ruling class of the alliance, but the outside is not peaceful, but it does not affect the lives of ordinary people on weekdays.

Fang Zhao didn't think it was strange. When the century was destroyed, everyone united with the outside world, but after the creation of the century, the distribution of benefits was uneven, and people were greedy. Once the control was not good, there would be more civil wars. Yanzhou was the best example.

When Wu Yan, the Genesis General of Yanzhou, died, the Wu family's internal struggles led to the replacement of Yanzhou's top leader. The Wu family was in a rather awkward position for a long time. Even if it has developed again now, it can no longer regain the absolute right to speak. You can only change the development route.

As for those extreme terrorists, Fang Zhao also heard some people mention them. Before serving in the army, when Mrs. Fang talked about his experience with Fang Zhao, he also mentioned those who were against the alliance government.

Mrs. Fang commented: "Those people are lunatics. No matter what they say, they are all excuses, just to satisfy their own desires."

There are many organizations that the Union government cannot control. In fact, there are such groups in every period, whether it is the new century or the old century, but not every such group will endanger society. Those that can be classified as terrorists are highly harmful .

At the same time, the Baijixing base.

Shanta is now in a state of rage. He just got angry at his subordinates in the command room, and now he has calmed down a bit, but the evil spirit in his eyes still made several military newspaper reporters who were about to inquire about the situation swallow their words.

Shangta didn't even look at the reporters, and directly closed the door of the command room, blocking the sight of others and blocking the sound from outside.

Forty minutes ago, the communication network of the base was suddenly paralyzed, which caught Shanta by surprise.

"How many times have I emphasized that you must be vigilant and cautious when upgrading the communication network, so you can't fucking remember! What about the communication engineer at the General Academy of Sciences? Careless, self-righteous, usually being praised too much, you forget how much you have! Shanta's suppressed anger flared up again.

"They still have real skills, but this time they failed to achieve perfection, and people took advantage of the loophole." A senior base executive said, "This time, it is obvious that someone planned it a long time ago, probably as early as in the Baiji Mine. It was planned before the discovery, and I also learned about Bai Jixing's military deployment, and it was not a temporary decision."

"Those engineers deserve scolding!" Shanta couldn't contain his anger when he thought of what happened in the past 40 minutes. "But if they are more cautious, can this happen? Big problem, can be fixed quickly. But now? Forty minutes! What can happen in forty minutes, I don’t need to tell you that you should know!”

The room was silent for a moment. All the people present here are experienced people. For forty minutes, the base cannot know the situation in other places in Baijixing, and it is out of control. I don't know how much loss it will cause.

Right now, they can only communicate using the base-wide internal network.

"Guess, who did it this time?" Shanta asked, knocking on the table.

"Who else could it be except 'T'." Everyone present thought of the same thing. The "T" organization is their abbreviation for the extremist organization called "Tomorrow's Empire".

A new communication came in, and Shanta quickly answered it.

"The people who were sent to several nearby checkpoints have returned, and there is no abnormality for the time being."

"People from the mining area came to report that the mining area was attacked and the situation has been brought under control. Seven terrorists were killed and 31 service personnel were injured. No deaths have been reported yet."

One message after another, the people in the command room were rarely relieved.

The defense of the mining area was arranged by Shangta himself, and Shangta also repeatedly emphasized that the team guarding the mine should not let go of any suspicious points. Now it seems that it is still effective.

It's rare to get a few good news, but Shanta still feels uneasy, picks up the communicator, and contacts the engineer who is repairing the communication network, "Are you all right?"

Just three words, but every word is full of gunpowder.

The tone of the engineer over there was a little weak, with a feeling of stiffness that could not let go of his attitude, "Not yet."

"Twenty minutes, if you can't fix it within twenty minutes, you guys, go back where you came from!"

Before the engineer over there could say anything, Shanta disconnected the communication. He waited for an hour at most, and forty minutes had passed, and continued to wait another twenty minutes. If it still couldn't be repaired, he would implement another plan.

The engineer whose face was ruthlessly thrown by Shanta, although his face turned red, had to endure it. This time they managed to get a place to come to Baijixing to upgrade the communication network, but they didn’t expect that there would be problems right after they arrived. It was indeed their negligence that gave people an opportunity. If they couldn’t fix it within 20 minutes, they would be kicked out by Shangta. When they go back, they will be ashamed to stay in the General Academy of Sciences. Most importantly, they will be forced to go back, which is a professional black spot, and there will be no chance of further development in the future.

Fortunately, under heavy pressure, they finally temporarily restored the communication network in the 19th minute. Although it was still unstable, at least it saved some face. It will definitely be completely stabilized in another 15 minutes at most.

Almost at the moment when the communication network was restored, Shanta received the news from various outposts. The other outposts are fine, but outposts 8, 23, 61, 85, and 97 were attacked.

The communication network has not been fully repaired, and the signal is still unstable. Shanta wants to contact the five outposts, but intermittently, but at least he will report the general situation there.

Fortunately, because of the discovery of the Baiji Mine, the protection systems of each sentry point have been upgraded, otherwise the five sentry points must have completely lost contact, or in other words, the five sentry points have disappeared from Baiji Xing.

This also made Shangta sure that this attack must have been premeditated. Long before the discovery of the Baiji Mine, their Baiji Xing had been targeted, and it was not a temporary decision by those people. And now those people are still attacking, probably because they are worried that Bai Jixing's defensive army will be bigger and more rigorous in the future, and they will not be able to attack, and they don't want to give up this attack, so they hurriedly created this attack.

Suddenly remembered something, Shangta suddenly raised his head and asked the people in the command room: "Where did Fan Lin transfer Fang Zhao's service position?"

The adjutant retrieved Fang Zhao's service file, and the column "Active Service" above the service position displayed: "Sentinel No. 23."

The room was quiet again for a moment, and the atmosphere was dignified.

Fan Lin, a senior professor of the Academy of Sciences, a senior professor with a big project, a celebrity in Muzhou.

The eight experimenters are all scientific research elites under Fan Lin. If something really happened this time, Fan Lin's laboratory would be taken over by someone.

There are also Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen, who are carrying the Starlight Project mission on their bodies, and they are very popular. It is absolutely impossible to cover up what happened, let alone the live broadcast before the signal was disconnected.

Fang Zhao, the discoverer of Baiji Mine, can be regarded as the person who changed the fate of Baiji Xing. Shang Ta also thanked him, especially those ears. It would be a pity if something happened because of this attack.

"Fang Zhao's service change has not been disclosed to the public. Even during the live broadcast, it has not been disclosed that Fang Zhao is at sentry point 23." One person said.

"Fan Lin's decision to come here was based on the discovery of the Baiji Mine. Therefore, they are not the target."

"The people from T just want to make an attack. The base's defense is strengthened. They know that the attack on the base is asking for trouble. After testing here and attracting our attention, they simply abandon the base and act as a pickpocket. , As for why the No. 23 checkpoint was selected, I can only say that Fan Lin and Fang Zhao were unlucky." A person with the rank of major general said.

Shanta didn't waste any more time here, and immediately sent people to support the five outposts that were attacked.

On the Internet, people who are far away from the war don't know Bai Jixing's situation at the moment, they only have resentment at the moment.

"People from "First Front" don't pretend to be dead!"

"What about the live broadcast? Why is it still not good!"

"Complain, we want to complain!!"

In the beginning, many media took advantage of this opportunity to attack "First Front", especially newspapers similar to "First Front". A handful.

In addition to those who sprayed "First Front", there were also those who took the opportunity to blackmail Fang Zhao. After all, Fang Zhao rose up too fast and blocked the way of many people.

And those entertainment magazines are even more excited at this time. They like to take the opportunity to stir up trouble. Anyway, they will not be caught if they follow the scolding, and they can also take advantage of this opportunity to attract traffic. How can their mouths be worthy of their bank accounts if they don't take the opportunity to make a fortune?

Therefore, in just half an hour after the live broadcast was disconnected, there was a lot of scolding on the Internet, but as time passed, the live broadcast did not resume, and "First Front" continued to pretend to be dead, and did not reply publicly, but keen people discovered that, The mainstream media originally accused "First Front" of losing its voice, and the popular entertainment media is also gradually silencing, and those who still follow the rhythm on the Internet are either not sharp enough and have no news channels, or they are stupid beeps who are dazzled by interests.

A newspaper in Huangzhou, the person who operates the online communication platform received instructions from above to delete the article that criticized "First Front" just now.

"Why do you want to delete it? There are a lot of people who repost it. These are all traffic, and if there is traffic, there is money!" The operator was puzzled.

"Did someone spend money to delete it?" Another person speculated.

"No matter what the reason is, since the higher-ups ordered it to be deleted, then delete it."

Yanzhou, Silver Wing headquarters building.

After receiving a call from her husband Hong Lou, Duan Qianji asked the PR department to keep quiet for the time being.

There are still many people on the Internet who are mobilized to scold Fang Zhao, whether they are just looking for something to vent, or are really full of resentment, after scolding, they will follow others like a master: "Silver Wing, come out to wash the floor!" Anyway, this kind of thing is not illegal.

The fiftieth floor of the Silver Wing, the virtual project department.

Several technicians including Zu Wen are wearing vests and talking to people online.

"It's been almost an hour, and the company's public relations personnel don't seem to have made a move." Pang Pusong was puzzled.

"There is no explanation for "First Front" either."

"It's not just them. Have you noticed that the newspapers that criticized "First Front" all deleted their comments?" Qin Jiulou said.

"It's true, not only has it been deleted, but it has also remained silent. Even the companies in Yanzhou who have been fighting against us have shut up! So, the company and "First Front" actually took action ?” Zu Wen asked.

"No." Qin Jiulou said in a deep voice, "I think something may have happened."

Silver Wing still doesn't have the ability to keep so many competitors quiet at the same time, unless it is because of certain things that silence so many large media companies in Yanzhou and outside of Yanzhou, and dare not speak indiscriminately.

Zu Wen was still about to ask, when he heard a new message notification, clicked on it, and his eyes almost popped out.

"I X! Terrorist attack?!"

Qin Jiulou clicked on the link, and it was the news being broadcast on the Huangzhou Military News Channel.

"...Bai Jixing was attacked by terrorists, and the communication network was temporarily paralyzed, making it impossible to contact..."

This news made the scolding war on the Internet suddenly stop as if a large freezing spell had been cast on it.

It is not news that alien bases are attacked by terrorists. It happens once or twice a year, especially those remote places with insufficient equipment and poor conditions are most likely to be targeted.

But it is also because of the distance that people listen to and talk about it, and it is over, and it has nothing to do with themselves. Only those who are about to serve will pay attention, and then try to keep the place where they serve as far away as possible. People who don't pay attention to current affairs news don't even know about terrorist attacks.

But this time, Bai Jixing was really in the limelight, and too many people followed him. Even through the Internet, it made everyone feel as if it happened right in front of his eyes, so many people were stunned by the news.

"Fear... a terrorist attack?"

"Look at the time, it's when the live broadcast is disconnected!"

"Isn't this really filming?"

five minutes later.

A message appeared on the Internet, and there was a picture on it, which was a screenshot of Bai Jixing's promotional video, but there was a big "T" on it.

Soon, major media reported on the incident, explaining what the picture meant: the terrorist organization "Empire of Tomorrow", also known as the "T" organization, claimed responsibility for the Baijixing attack.

At the dry rest center in Yanbei City, Mrs. Fang, who was watering the flowers, saw the news, his hands trembled, and the water bottle fell to the ground.

The old lady also quickly picked up the communicator and contacted her former comrades-in-arms, hoping to get the latest situation from Bai Jixing's side.

The two elders looked pale, they regretted it now, they shouldn't have agreed with Fang Zhao to serve in Baijixing. Don't look at the fact that they often talk about letting the juniors join the army and serve in difficult places, but sometimes they turn a blind eye, and they still feel sorry for the juniors. The two elders were very happy with Fang Zhao's decision at that time, but at the same time they were also worried, fearing that something bad would happen to Fang Zhao.

The discovery of the Baiji Mine made Mrs. Fang very proud in the rest place. Unexpectedly, within a few days of being proud, this kind of thing would happen.

"Xiao Zhao is the discoverer of the Baiji Mine, and he is also a celebrity. There should be a lot of people there to protect him. He should be fine, um, he must be fine." Mrs. Fang didn't know whether he was comforting his wife or persuading himself. After saying a few words, he hurriedly took the communicator and continued to contact for help inquiring about the news.

On Bai Jixing's side, Lin Kaiwen felt ecstasy when he received the notification that the sending was successful.

The successful transmission means that the communication has been restored. The restoration of the communication proves that the base will definitely know the news here, and will definitely send someone to support it. Talk to your loved ones!

However, after seeing the sending status clearly, I felt like a basin of ice water was being poured on my head.

He took so many videos, only the first video was successfully sent, and I don’t know how long it took to send it successfully. The second video was stuck at 19%, and the progress was slow. The live broadcast is even impossible, and the base cannot be contacted. I don't know why.

"Is the signal in the basement too weak?" Lin Kaiwen said, "Professor Fan, have you been in touch?"

Fan Lin shook his head. He felt very sorry for Fang Zhao and Lin Kaiwen. After all, he played tricks to call Fang Zhao here. Who knew that such a thing would happen.

"Fang Zhao, it's my fault this time, I shouldn't have transferred you here." Fan Lin sighed.

After waiting for a while, without waiting for Fang Zhao's response, Fan Lin looked over and saw Fang Zhao, who was treating the wounds of the wounded, stood up and looked at the door of the basement.

The room suddenly became brighter.

The light emitted by the "rabbit" in the water tank was much brighter than before, and the hairs that looked soft were blown up one by one, and there were some bright spots at the end of each hair. It looks very beautiful, but Fan Lin has a dangerous feeling - whoever touches it at this time will be unlucky.

Many animals have a stronger perception of danger than humans. The people in this basement are not fools, and because of this, they are nervous.

"Out...outside...what's outside?" Lin Kaiwen's excitement just now had faded away, but once he calmed down, he listened carefully to every tiny movement, and he could hear faint and strange howling sounds , making all the hairs on his body explode.

Fang Zhao didn't answer, but went to the door, pressed the keypad on the wall next to it, and a screen popped up, showing the picture outside the basement door, because it hadn't been changed for a long time, and the equipment hadn't been maintained. It's old, and the picture flicks from time to time.

There is no light outside, and the camera is in night vision mode, the color is not so bright, but it is still clear, and the situation outside the door is transmitted.

A creature with slender limbs was walking by the door of the basement. It had hook-like claws, and its fur seemed to be in lumps. On the partially exposed skin, protruding tendons were beating, and its face was ferocious. , There was some liquid dripping from the side of the fangs, I don't know if it was saliva or their blood.

This kind of creature, which looks sick at first glance, is not Bai Jixing's wild animal at all.

Boom!

A crisp sound of a hard object breaking suddenly resounded in the quiet basement, causing everyone to tremble.

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the piece of metal taken from the wounded in Fang Zhao's hand was broken by a forcible pinch.

Fang Zhao's back was facing them, and his eyes, which were usually considered calm and calm, now glowed fiercely like sharpened blades.

He seemed to be standing there calmly, but Fang Zhao's heart was already raging with anger.

Although the creatures from the era of the century are no longer a big threat to the people of the new century, some rich people even boasted that they wanted to keep a creature from the era of the century as a pet, but unfortunately the law does not allow it. There are strict regulations on the experiment of destroying the creatures of the century, and the declaration must go through a lot of review. Once any violation is found, one will be punished to death.

Some people illegally conduct biological experiments on the eradication of the century for money, such as collecting certain specimens and bone ornaments labeled with the eradication label in the circle. And some people have other purposes, such as using them as a biological weapon.

There must be more than one in the outpost, the attackers deliberately put them in to attack the outpost.

People in the new century may just be disgusted with this kind of behavior of terrorists, but Fang Zhao is angry!

The war that has lasted for nearly a hundred years has paid such a big sacrifice just to watch you release them again?

What about rebellion? !

A bunch of bastards!
