“Don’t come.” Dr Ji’s cold voice came from the laboratory. “Colonel Lu’s death is confirmed.”

The military boots paused.

“We’re sorry.”

The pale Dr Ji smiled wryly. “I’m not surprised in regards to the Judge’s death.”

***

The cabin of the PL1109.

Hubbard leaned against the cabin wall. He and Lu Feng weren’t good friends but it also seemed to be a life-threatening friendship. “It took a lot of effort to get that thing out of the house next door but you actually still have this type of thing.”

Lu Feng told him. “Well done. According to Scott Shaw’s testimony, you were the one who provided the specific information.”

Hubbard smiled and didn’t continue this topic. He asked, “What was it like to be under house arrest?”

“Okay.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the others in the cabin.

An officer next to him said, “We all came back from the Underground City Base together, Colonel Lu. We promise not to inform the military.”

“Don’t thank them.” Hubbard wiped the gun in his hand while telling Lu Feng “It is a monster siege and we are going to fight again. It was obvious in the underground city that you are experienced. Everyone can see it. I don’t mind working with you again. It is very cost-effective for both of us.”

The officer stated, “This is on the premise that the colonel is still willing to serve the base.”

Lu Feng slightly smiled.

“Start checking the equipment.”

To one side, Hubbard was cleaning his gun. It was a silver, semi-automatic gun. His fingers were resting on the butt of the gun. There were scratches there that vaguely spelt out ‘Tang.’ His eyes were fixed on the string of letters.

The officer asked, “Who is this?”

Hubbard replied, “A friend. We’ve known each other for 33 years.”

“Really long.”

Hubbard stared at the words and after a long time, he smiled. “It is a pity.”

“What is?”

“We were born together but finally couldn’t die together.”

“How can there be such a good thing?”

“Yes.”

Lu Feng watched their conversation with folded eyes. His eyes were half-covered and no emotions could be seen. The other people naturally didn’t expect the Judge to empathize with their emotions. At least, until Hubbard discovered something. “Where is your gun?”

Lu Feng answered, “I gave it to someone.”

Hubbard smiled and seemed to understand everything. Compared to the military’s standard supplies, the leader of the mercenary group was obviously rich. He took out a black gun and handed it to Lu Feng. The moment it was taken, Hubbard whispered, “He will live.”

“Thank you.”

CHAPTER 80: WHEN YOU WALK GENTLY INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT

The engine roared and the PL1109 slowly took off. It was accompanied by an entire fleet of fighter jets, which formed the base’s air combat forces. On the vast plains, monsters came like a tide toward the base.
