The relaxed atmosphere didn't last long.
Soon, their wristbands alerted them to incoming emails. The location assigned to their team was confirmed - it was in the southeast direction not far from where they were, a residential area with quite a few inhabitants.
The message stated that mutant bats had been spotted and instructed them to be careful and head there immediately.
Outside, the wind was still howling. Many trees in the community had been blown down, though the rain wasn't heavy. But since the mission had been assigned, as a combat team, they had to set out. So they clicked to confirm.
Everyone hurriedly stuffed a few bites of food in their mouths before getting up and heading out.
While waiting for the elevator, they even did some quick stretches, moving their necks and legs, preparing for battle!
Everyone put on their earpieces.
Qin Luo started assigning roles, "Xu Duoduo, you're with me. Xiao Bai and Old Wang together. Xiao Fei, you're on your own."
Bai Shu had weaker physical abilities, so it was better to pair him with a damage-absorbing partner.
Chen Xiaofei was now faster, and Bai Shu might not be able to keep up with him. Neither could Wang Weihu, so it was better for him to act alone, giving him more freedom to fight.
The three of them all agreed.
As teammates who had been on countless missions together, the four of them could work in any combination.
Qin Luo didn't let the little zombie stay alone anymore. Now that they had witnessed her killing move, it was time for her to train with them. The apocalypse was ever-changing, as they had seen with their own eyes. Without effort, it was easy to be eliminated.
They had thought her space ability was just a support-type ability. None of the four had imagined it could kill people. It was indeed a good thing.
Xu Duoduo took out her chainsaw. She was still more comfortable using this. Was she afraid? Not really. Somehow, seeing the four of them made her feel very secure. It felt like they were a team. She wasn't just a lone zombie!
The 3A Combat Team officially entered battle mode. As soon as the elevator opened, they charged into the rain. The wind was still strong, but the rain had lessened.
Now everyone in the team had improved their skills and speed.
They didn't take the subway.
They ran directly, as this place was only about ten minutes away from them.
Xu Duoduo's speed was 1.5 times that of a normal person, but for Qin Luo and the others, it wasn't enough. So she was being carried by Qin Luo as he ran.
"Tch, these ears and tail are really in the way!" Qin Luo impatiently shook his ears. Although he ran faster, the newly grown mimicry beast ears were too sensitive, and the tail was also troublesome. Having a tail hanging behind him felt strange no matter how he thought about it.
Xu Duoduo was already used to being carried. She lay on his shoulder and could see his tail swishing away the rain as he ran. The rain wasn't heavy, so the tail wasn't soaked and still looked very fluffy. She just stared at it.
She liked it so much!
She wanted to hug it, stroke it, nuzzle it!
But they were on a mission.

On the other side, Wang Weihu was also a bit awkward. He almost lost his balance and fell because of the extra tail, but he quickly readjusted.
Chen Xiaofei was the most uninhibited. He directly flapped his wings and took off while running. He could even control the wind to blow away the rainwater near his wings, so they wouldn't get wet. How wonderful!
Later, he even grabbed Bai Shu, caught him and ran to a high place, then threw him down. Bai Shu then glided down from the height, flying quite far.
Although it was well-intentioned.
Being grabbed and thrown down from a height for the first time, Bai Shu directly cursed, "Chen Xiaofei, I thank your ancestors for eight generations!"
However, he did quickly grasp the essence. Bai Shu started taking shortcuts himself, climbing houses, and finally gliding to accelerate, saving a lot of energy.
Chen Xiaofei laughed heartily, feeling that this sense of free flight was incredibly enjoyable.
Until Qin Luo warned him not to overdo it, as their abilities were limited.
Chen Xiaofei then woke up from his excitement and quickly indicated that he understood, "Okay, 3A Special Operations Team - Eagle has arrived at the destination."
"Target group locked, it's a group of large black mutant bats, circling near the residential buildings. They scattered and fled when they saw me."
"I'm going in!"
After saying this, he launched the first attack, directly mobilizing his ability and charging up.
He started chasing and fighting the mutant bats.
Bai Shu was the second to arrive. He also reported: "3A Special Operations Team - White Mouse in position. I've reached the designated location. Encirclement begins."
The four of them very tacitly split into four corners, locking positions and starting to eliminate towards the center. In the end, the four of them would meet at the central point.
This was their usual habit from before.
Wang Weihu quickly reached a corner of the residential area as well. "3A Special Operations Team - Tiger King in position. Encirclement begins."
Qin Luo directly replied: "Received." He had also reached the farthest corner.
After putting the little zombie down, he said: "I'll let a few bats through for you to practice. Figure out your own fighting style, and try to stay behind me."
With his combat output, bringing along a little newbie was a piece of cake.
Xu Duoduo nodded, holding her chainsaw. Then she saw Qin Luo also start to report the beginning of the battle. After that, he twitched his wolf ears and began to charge forward. He held his double-edged knife in his hand and started a one-sided slaughter. He even applied lightning to his dagger. With each strike, it was truly a sight of sparks and lightning.
There were many bats here, densely packed to an absurd degree. Qin Luo was outputting damage at the front, occasionally letting a few large bats slip through. These bats were truly huge, about the size of a basketball, with pointed mouths and small eyes, blood-red eyes, and blackish wings. They weren't cute-looking at all.
The little zombie was nervous inside, but when they swooped towards her, she also swung her chainsaw to kill them. Bat blood immediately splattered out.
A few drops splashed on her snow-white little face, and she raised her hand to wipe it off.
Looking at Qin Luo's back, she stepped forward again, hugging her chainsaw and keeping up with his speed. After noticing that she had eliminated the first bat, he gradually widened the gap, letting more mutant bats through for the little zombie to practice on.
Before the apocalypse, Xu Duoduo was just an ordinary girl who went to work after graduation, living a routine life. The only thing remotely related to martial arts or training was the military training during her school days.
She had never been exposed to these things, but unexpectedly, she turned out to be quite brave.
Although you could see she was a bit scared, she adapted very quickly, stumbling but determined to keep up with him. Qin Luo couldn't help but admire her.
Although a bit clumsy.
The little zombie was trying very hard.
What to do.
Qin Luo found her even more adorable. How could she be so likable?!
The star rating of the bats wasn't high, but the annoying part was that they seemed endless. No matter how many they killed, there were always more, continuously pouring into the base from outside.
It was probably due to the abnormal weather causing trouble, leading to their large-scale migration.
Their route happened to collide with the base.
And these bats were very wind-resistant! Even more so than these ability users against the typhoon!
Occasionally when the wind was strong, Qin Luo felt it was a bit difficult to stand. The little zombie Xu Duoduo had been blown head over heels several times.
But the little zombie was tough and didn't feel much pain. Every time she was knocked over by the typhoon, she would nimbly get up again, just a bit dirtier.
