Chapter 185 - 130 Waste City (4)
Maya took the Silencer’s scope to observe the scientists and the green device, but Lucy’s information was momentarily useless. Right now, Maya was more concerned about whether approaching the green device would cause trouble. She and Lin Wu had witnessed the chaos just moments before; within a 5-kilometer radius, the zombies, as if called by a goddess, rushed toward the location of the green device with reckless abandon, not caring for their own lives.
This was an open area, and the nearest zombie to the green device was also about 50 meters away. Maya handed the Silencer back to Lin Wu, "Go take a look, and if possible, bring back the scientist first. Whatever you do, don’t touch the wounded soldiers." Once he got involved with the soldiers, they might be attacked by zombies after entering the mission, making it difficult for Lin Wu to extricate himself.
Lin Wu nodded and began to move. With one hand, he pushed down on the corridor’s handrail, causing Maya to quickly pull him back, "Use the stairs." Then she realized Lin Wu was just trying to scare her. Seeing Lin Wu’s successful trick, Maya kicked him in the calf without any reason, "Be careful."
Lin Wu walked openly for fifty meters before going into Stealth. Once Lin Wu entered Stealth, Maya couldn’t spot his position due to the lack of scopes and binoculars, and the longer distance.
Lin Wu easily reached the scientist’s side, "Hello."
The scientist said joyfully, "Hello, my name is Jack."
Lin Wu made a shushing gesture, which at least proved that Jack’s volume wouldn’t activate the device. Lin Wu said, "Follow me, and don’t speak."
Just like that, Lin Wu breezily brought Jack back to the waste transfer station. Upon seeing Maya, the captain of the supermarket squad, Jack immediately said, "Please save that soldier."
"Got it," Maya replied, and this time there was no mission countdown. Maya said to Lin Wu, "Make another trip, but again, don’t move the soldier. Get as close to the green device as you can. If possible, touch it."
Lin Wu looked at Maya, "I still have value, you know."
Maya said, "I’ve calculated it. With your speed and the zombies’ positions, they can’t surround you. The zombies are summoned by the device; their aim is to reach the device’s location. The device won’t order the zombies to chase after you. There won’t be a problem."
