Facts proved that what Yu Yifeng said was true. Many team members walked unsteadily, just like drunkards. Some even hopped forward directly, like kangaroos, jumping ten meters or so at a time. In fact, it was easier for them to move in this way.
The difference in walking on the Earth and on the Moon is mainly caused by the difference in gravity between the two places. People have lived on the Earth with relatively large gravity for a long time and have been accustomed to the transfer of strength, speed and center of gravity when walking alternately. However, on the Moon, the gravity is only one-sixth of that on the Earth, while the pushing force of the feet remains basically unchanged. As a result, the center of gravity changes too drastically when people take steps with their two feet one after another, causing the body to sway.
This filled Yu Yifeng's heart with worry. It would be a great disadvantage for the team members to fight against the death row inmates and rebels who had lived on the Moon for many years in such a state. He took the lead and walked at the front of the team, thinking that he could respond in time if any unexpected situation occurred.
"Beep, beep!" The communicator inside the helmet suddenly rang, and the voice of a middle-aged man came out.
"Captain Yu, have you arrived on the Moon?" It was Dr. Roman, the chief biologist of the Lunar Base.
"Yes, we've just arrived! How's the situation in the base?" Yu Yifeng asked.
"It's not optimistic. After the Earth exploded, some death row inmates suddenly rioted in groups. They attacked the governing officials of the base and are now gathered together, and I don't know what they're plotting." Dr. Roman said anxiously, his words a bit chaotic. "Many people have been taken hostage... I'm hiding in the underground facilities now and I'm still safe for the moment."
"Okay. Do you know anything else?"
"Their leader seems to be a death row inmate named Calvin. There are about one or two hundred rebels in total! I don't know anything else..."
"Got it. Please hide for a while longer. We'll be there soon."
Calvin! Hearing this name, Yu Yifeng's pupils shrank slightly. It was him!
Calvin was the cult leader of the "Void Religion" and was regarded as the most dangerous criminal. In 2015, the "Ten Thousand People Self-immolation" incident that shocked the whole world was planned by Calvin himself. He claimed to be the "Son of God" and had been preaching the "Earth Destruction Theory" long ago.
In his demagogic speeches, the Earth was just a garbage dump full of chaos and evil and would be destroyed by God sooner or later. Only by relying on him, the "Son of God", could people be reborn. In 2015, Yu Yifeng led a team and went through countless hardships to arrest Calvin. Unexpectedly, this guy was sent to the Moon!
Yu Yifeng couldn't help cursing those corrupt officials in his heart. Not all death row inmates could be sent to the Moon. An extremist like Calvin should definitely not be allowed to go. But he had great power and was wealthy. He must have escaped the death penalty because of some shady inside stories.
You know, this was an extremely dangerous person! During the process of arresting Calvin, seven or eight of their comrades were killed or injured. It was the heaviest loss for the special team. Unexpectedly, because of these corrupt officials, all their previous efforts were in vain.
"Old Xu, we're in trouble. Do you remember Calvin? He's still alive and has become the leader of the death row inmates!"
Xu Yunjin's face changed, and he said through gritted teeth, "He's still alive? And he was sent to the Moon? Those damned... I should have just shot him directly even if I would have been punished!"
A group of team members around also started cursing one after another. Some new members didn't know what was going on, but some old members knew it well.
"We caught him once, and we can catch him again. This time, we won't give him any chance!" Yu Yifeng waved his gun and said fiercely.
After walking for about half an hour, everyone finally came under the huge glass cover. Its highest point was more than 1,000 meters, comparable to the tallest building on the Earth. But this was just the tip of the iceberg. More buildings were hidden underground. After all, the Moon has no atmosphere and is frequently hit by asteroids. It's safer to build the buildings underground.
The team walked along the glass cover for a while and then came to a remote iron door. Yu Yifeng entered a password with 18 digits, and the iron door opened with a loud bang. "Let's go, everyone follow me!" Without waiting for others, he rushed straight in.
This was a small room of about ten square meters, which looked like a warehouse. It was filled with all kinds of metal parts and other odds and ends. There was another door right opposite. Passing through this door was the inside of the base.
Seeing that the team members had followed one by one, Yu Yifeng stopped and said solemnly again, "Going further inside is the interior of the base. The circular glass cover can effectively block most of the cosmic rays, and there is breathable air inside. Now you can take off your spacesuits and travel light."
"Those who haven't adapted to the lunar gravity yet should tie some lead blocks on themselves to increase their weight. Everyone be careful. I don't want to lose any of my brothers. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
Yu Yifeng waited quietly behind the door for a while, carefully observing the surrounding environment. As always, he was calm and composed, which was responsible for the lives of the whole team. After confirming that it was safe, he gently opened the door and walked out quietly.
The whole base was quiet and there was no one in sight. Maybe everyone had hidden themselves, or maybe they had been captured by the rebels. A depressing atmosphere hung over all the team members.
After walking a few more steps forward, Yu Yifeng suddenly sniffed and smelled a faint smell of blood. Looking back, he found that Xu Yunjin also nodded at him.
"This way!" He immediately waved his hand, and everyone immediately understood and quickly dispersed around, entering a state of alert. After all, they were top-notch special forces soldiers. Even in a different environment, their military qualities would not be lost.
From the low house in front, there came bursts of low moans and screams. If you listened carefully, you could tell that they were human voices. This made everyone's eyes become colder. In previous missions, when they were in some terrorist bases, they could occasionally hear such voices too... That was the most desperate cry of human beings.
Through the crack of the door, one could vaguely see the situation inside. This was originally a warehouse covering an area of more than 300 square meters, but now it had become a paradise for crimes.
A group of women were tied up like zongzi. Their clothes were still in good condition, perhaps it hadn't been their turn yet... But those lying on the ground were in a horrible state. Whips, blood, excrement and some unidentified objects were mixed together, forming a filthy and bloody scene.
A group of naked men were wantonly indulging themselves among the naked bodies, rolling around and venting the desires that had accumulated over the years. Some people even felt that it wasn't exciting enough, so they picked up sharp knives and scratched blood marks on human bodies. Then they laughed brutally after hearing the terrified screams.
This was the ugliest side of human nature. Even the experienced special forces members showed a strong intention to kill when seeing this scene.
Zhao Yao, who had the most impulsive personality, was flushed with anger. The veins on his neck stood out, and he clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from losing control of his emotions.
The young man with a crew cut in the team was a professional sniper and also a master of reconnaissance. His name was Shen Jie, and he had the sharpest eyesight. After observing for about a minute, he finally confirmed the number of the enemies. He made several gestures behind his back, meaning: "93 people, low danger level."
Seeing this, Yu Yifeng also made a gesture to the team members and then made a throat-cutting gesture, meaning: "Shoot to kill without mercy!"
