Chapter 1144
So they had the smoked fish tested, and sure enough, toxins were found in it.
He Chengshi and his team thought the toxin wouldn't be easily detected, but having been out of touch with modern civilization for so long, they hadn't expected that the mothership still retained many of the pre-apocalyptic technological methods.
This is also the most direct evidence that allowed the mothership to discover their ill intentions!
The reason they've been holding back for so many days is that they're waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop!
After that, Captain Chen set up this trap.
He also learned about the talent of the person in He Chengshi's team who was good at tracking, although he was not sure if it was the child named Chang Zhile.
But since they knew what talent was, they deliberately showed them the poisoned smoked fish that the cafeteria had served that day.
He Chengshi mistakenly believed that the plan had succeeded and lowered his guard.
The soldiers who collapsed in the mess hall were all faking poisoning in order to lull the third group into a false sense of security.
Upon hearing this, He Chengshi's face drained of color, and he collapsed to the ground, completely losing the strength to struggle.
He had planned everything meticulously, but he never expected that his carefully crafted plan would be seen through from the very beginning.
Meanwhile, gunfire and shouts mingled with noise could be heard from other places.
It was Captain Chen who closed the net.
Inside the power plant, the burly men had just blown up the emergency power supply box and hadn't even had time to celebrate when they were rushed in by soldiers who had been lying in ambush nearby.
The soldiers moved swiftly and fired fiercely, leaving the prisoners no chance to resist and forcing them to surrender.
Inside the armory, the tall, thin man and his men were busy moving weapons, dreaming of dominating the seas with these advanced weapons.
Unexpectedly, countless ropes suddenly descended from the ventilation shafts above, and the soldiers slid down like divine warriors, instantly taking control of the entire armory.
In the canteen, the third group was triumphantly pointing their guns at the "poisoned" soldiers, thinking they had victory in their grasp.
But the next second, the soldiers who had been lying on the ground suddenly got up, their eyes sharp, and their guns instantly pointed at them.
At the same time, the front and back doors of the canteen were opened, and a large number of soldiers poured in and surrounded them.
Only then did they realize that the so-called poisoning was just a charade staged by the other party.
The gunfire around the fortress grew increasingly intense, like rapid drumbeats pounding on everyone's nerves.
He Chengshi collapsed to the ground, his vision blurred, and he could only see the cold figures of the Zhou family members and the soldiers surging towards the end of the corridor.
"Reporting to Doctor Zhou and Captain Qi! All three groups of rebels have been captured!" Lieutenant Yun arrived with a squad of elite soldiers.
His gaze swept quickly across the scene, he respectfully nodded to the Zhou family, and then turned to the soldiers and ordered: "Take all the prisoners to the interrogation room on the first floor, keep them under separate guard, do not allow them to collude, and do not allow anyone to approach them!"
"Yes!" the soldiers responded in unison, and immediately stepped forward to drag He Chengshi away.
He Chengshi grimaced in pain, his wounds on his shoulders and legs were being pulled and bleeding profusely, but he didn't even have the strength to struggle. He could only be dragged away like a lump of mud.
Zhou Shuwan's gaze fell on Xiao Sheng, who remained silent to the side.
The boy remained standing in the same spot, his hands hanging at his sides, his eyes as calm as a deep pool of water, as if the fierce battle just now and the bloodshed before him had nothing to do with him.
He showed neither fear nor relief, acting like a detached bystander.
"Take this child to the first floor and hand him over to Captain Chen," Zhou Shuwan said to Lieutenant Yun.
Deputy Yun paused for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, Dr. Zhou."
He walked up to Xiao Sheng and softened his tone: "Come with me."
Xiao Sheng did not resist, but simply followed silently.
Then, on the distant sea, one could vaguely see flames shooting into the sky on the horizon, with sparks like falling meteors.
