I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 104 Dry | Die | Damn

It was five o'clock in the morning, and the sky was pale. Zhang Jue had already gotten up and sorted out his equipment.

According to the information provided by the Foundation, those zombies infected by scp-016-A seem to be more afraid of sunlight.

So the exploration team had to set off early in the morning so that they could search for more places.

There was a knock on the door, but Zhang Jue didn't even look back. He didn't need to look at him to know who was coming.

"Have you brought everything?" Yang Xue asked softly.

"It's all here." Zhang Jue smiled, "Why, you want to go too? Shall I bring some popcorn?"

Seeing that he was still thinking about joking, Yang Xue shook her head: "I'm here to remind you that this town is full of weirdness, and things may not be as simple as Le Shui said. Apart from those infected, there may be other unpredictable things inside." danger, you have to be careful."

It turned out that this chick came because she cared about her, Zhang Jue nodded with a smile.

Seeing Zhang Jue's natural expression, Yang Xue knew that he knew it well.

Thinking about it, how could Zhang Jue not think of these things.

Yang Xue sighed that she was really unnecessary.

Zhang Jue laughed.

"Dr. Yang Da, don't worry about me. Didn't you say that gods and ghosts are afraid of evil people. Who am I? Those ghosts and monsters, they had better pray not to meet me, otherwise I will definitely make them regret it."

...

The day gradually brightened.

During the period, Tang Mo also came to Zhang Jue's room, saying that he was afraid that he would forget the time, but Zhang Jue knew that they were more afraid of running away.

Le Shui acted cautiously, but he could also explain from the side that he didn't know Zhang Jue well.

As long as there is no special reason or force majeure, he will do what he promises to others.

Zhang Jue ate something indiscriminately, came out of the town, and joined the third exploration team of 'Asuka' who had been waiting here.

There are 24 people in the MTF bird team. In the first two explorations, 16 people have disappeared in this strange town.

The remaining 8 people were personally led by Captain Jeffrey, and they carried out this operation together with Zhang Jue.

"Hello, Consultant Zhang." Seeing Zhang Jue, Jeffrey greeted him.

He was a black man with a long scar on his left jaw, and his whole body exuded the unique resoluteness of a soldier.

Jeffrey had a serious expression on his face. When facing Zhang Jue, he neither flattered nor targeted him. His eyes were only on the ghost town not far away.

Zhang Jue knew that the disappearance of two consecutive team members had angered the captain.

Although he didn't show any abnormality, Zhang Jue could see the clue from his slightly narrowed eyes.

Zhang Jue also looked into the town, and said softly, "Captain Jeffrey, please rest assured, if your team members are still alive, I will help you find them."

This time, Jeffrey finally set his sights on Zhang Jue, and he found that this young man seemed different from what he had imagined.

Confident, but not conceited, with deep eyes, even compared to Le Shui.

He pondered for a moment, but couldn't say any words of gratitude after all, and only nodded slightly.

"Thank you."

At half past six, it was daylight.

Le Shui also came. He had a few words with Jeffrey and exchanged greetings with Zhang Jue.

What should be said has been finished yesterday, he came here just to boost morale.

At exactly seven o'clock, the third exploration team sent by the foundation headed towards this small town called Craminder once again.

After entering the town, led by Jeffrey, a group of people walked along the main road.

Zhang Jue had already printed the map of the town in his mind, so he knew very well where the group of people were.

Hospitals, churches, supermarkets, they didn't make any stops,

Clearly, Jeffrey has a very clear purpose.

For this exploration, Jeffrey was the sole captain, and Zhang Jue, just like his position in the foundation, only existed as a consultant for the team.

As for the specific location of the exploration and what the Foundation is looking for, he has no idea.

He only has one special power - at a critical moment, he has a veto power over the decisions made by the captain.

In order to distinguish the location conveniently, the foundation divided the plane of the whole town into nine grids.

The town of Cramingda is built on the hillside, and the nine areas are A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, and C3 from outside to inside.

The missing locations of the two exploration teams are both in the innermost C3 area.

Jeffrey didn't waste time. After entering the town, the team headed all the way to the C3 area.

The exploration team was fully armed. Although Jeffrey cared about those team members, he still did not venture forward. The whole team remained vigilant and moved forward slowly under his orders.

Zhang Jue has self-healing ability and is immune to most scp abilities, so he didn't wear the heavy protective clothing.

Jeffrey was a little worried, but Zhang Jue was a foundation consultant, two levels higher than him. Since Le Shui didn't say anything, he didn't intend to meddle in his own business.

The town was silent.

On the desolate streets, traces of explosions and struggles can be seen everywhere, but for some reason, there are almost no dead bodies.

The weather was gloomy, with various unknown particles floating in the air, and the low visibility made this dilapidated town even more eerie.

Facing this fear of the unknown, even the well-trained MTF players are a little nervous, and many of them have started to sweat in their palms.

Under the heavy pressure, the atmosphere of the exploration team became more and more dignified. Fortunately, Jeffrey was personally in charge, otherwise the minds of the team members would be overwhelmed by this pressure.

Holding the dragon crystal in his hand, Zhang Jue sensed the surrounding conditions.

He could feel that in those invisible places, some creatures were watching their every move, ready to attack at any time.

"call--"

A gust of wind.

A javelin flew over from a distance, its sharp tip gleaming with a man-eating light, and its target was Zhang Jue who was not wearing protective clothing.

But Zhang Jue was at the end of the team, and Jeffrey had no time to save him.

"careful--"

Seeing this scene, Jeffrey's heart sank. They hadn't reached the designated place yet. If Zhang Jue died like this, not only would he not be able to rescue the missing team members, he would even be punished by the Foundation.

However, what happened next, he will not forget for a long time.

I saw Zhang Jue turning sideways very casually, avoiding the sinister javelin.

Jeffrey clearly saw that the javelin almost flew past Zhang Jue's face.

If Zhang Jue's action was a few tenths of a second later, his eye sockets would be pierced directly by the javelin.

Fortunately, Zhang Jue escaped this insidious blow—whether it was a coincidence or not.

Seeing that Zhang Jue was fine, Jeffrey heaved a sigh of relief.

He called on the team members to strengthen their vigilance. This small town is full of dangers, and the infected people hiding in the dark are very powerful. They must keep their spirits up.

Confirming that there was no follow-up attack, Jeffrey gave the order to move on.

However, Zhang Jue stopped.

"What's wrong?" Jeffrey asked.

Zhang Jue looked at him: "Captain Jeffrey, I have a question for you."

"Speaking."

"Under normal circumstances, if your team members are attacked by the enemy, what do you do."

Jeffrey said: "Of course it is to organize a counterattack."

Zhang Jue smiled: "Then why not now?"

"..."

Jeffrey was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Of course it's not because we just met. You just think that finding the missing team members and completing the exploration mission is the top priority, right?"

"Yes." Jeffrey nodded, he really thought so.

"Captain Jeffrey, if I'm not mistaken, you used to be a soldier, so obeying orders and completing missions will always be your first goal. I can understand this, but I'm not the same as you."

Zhang Jue said: "To put it nicely, I am a consultant of the foundation. To put it bluntly, I am just a gangster. When dealing with enemies, my character is to be ruthless and vengeful."

Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed, and there was a trace of madness in his eyes.

"Whoever doesn't have a good eye dares to shoot me, I will return it a hundred times and a thousand times. It doesn't matter whether it is a human or a ghost, I will kill it!"
