It was noon when we arrived at the forbidden area.
The sun was three high in the sky, and the sun was shining brightly. Even in March, there was a bit of warmth.
But the moment the motorcade entered the forbidden area, it seemed as if it had entered another world, and the warmth suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Looking around, the jungle seems to have no end, and a faint mist floats among the rolling mountains.
The sun is still bright, but it seems to have lost its temperature, leaving only the function of lighting.
At this time, the convoy was at a high altitude, and through the unusually dense jungle and the light mist, one could vaguely see the appearance of a small town.
The architecture of the town is antique, and you can see a small river passing through the town. The river froze in the winter, but now it has melted, and the river can be seen flowing in the sun.
There were three or five small boats floating on the riverside, and they were tied to the pier to prevent them from being carried away by the current.
In the long streets and alleys of the town, people can be vaguely seen walking around, and it seems that there are still people in the town.
If it was before the 'Behemoth Disaster', such a scene would be normal, but after the natural disaster, such a scene would look weird.
"Have you seen that town? There are people in that town."
In the school bus, Zhao Ping put down the binoculars and handed them to Luo Yan.
Luo Yan took the telescope and looked at it, and saw that many of the ancient buildings with white walls and black tiles in the town were dilapidated.
Shrubs and weeds have invaded the town, and the roofs of many houses are covered with a succulent plant called 'Wasonia'.
In the window of a three-story building, Luo Yan saw a woman walking to the window and closing the door on the completely broken window.
The woman's hair was messy, reaching to her feet, her face was withered and devoid of any moisture, her face was wrinkled, her pale face had no luster that a living person should have, and it was covered with brown patches.
After a few random glances with her blank eyes, she returned to the house, sat down at a dressing table, picked up the toothless comb, and combed her hair in front of the gray mirror.
"Those are probably the living corpses controlled by Aoye. They are really scary. They are still carrying out some of the activities they did in life, pretending to be alive, and luring outsiders in."
Liu Ruohan also looked into the mirror with a telescope: "I bet that town must be a trap."
Just as he finished speaking, a burst of crying came from nowhere.
Whimpering...if there is nothing, it sounds scary.
Luo Yan put down his telescope and looked at the huge valley, truly feeling the strangeness of the 'Valley of Sorrow'.
After entering the forbidden area, the convoys from Baizhan Academy and Canghe Academy separated and headed to the initial camping spots designated by the conference.
There they can make adjustments, plan exploration routes, go to preset locations to set up supply points, make logistical preparations, reset the command center, and more.
After arriving at the designated camping spot, conference dispatchers assisted the team members, handed over various materials provided by the conference, and told the students that the competition started from the moment they entered the forbidden area.
So no one dared to neglect, and Li Bohang busily deployed personnel from all parties to make various arrangements and preparations.
Luo Yan followed the plan, put on his driving suit, and ran directly to his mecha transport vehicle.
After a while of busy work, 'Bi'an' started up and got out of the carrier.
boom!
As the mecha stepped on the ground, the camp site not far away shook slightly. The surrounding trees were shaking, but not a single bird was frightened.
The students in the camp all looked at the 'Biwan', and saw the white mecha with black stripes, tough lines, a machine gun on its shoulder, and a shield on its left hand. They took big steps, passed the camp, and headed towards the forbidden area. Go deep.
"That's Student Luo's 'Divine Guard' mecha. I really envy him. He drove a Divine Guard before he even graduated."
"People are different. I haven't even touched a basic machine, but others have already played with the Divine Guard."
"Then don't look at how people got the divine guards. In those battles that Mr. Luo participated in, if it were you, it would be a question whether you could survive until now."
"Stop talking and get to work. There are a lot of things to be accomplished today."
Driving the 'Taoyan', Luo Yan quickly flew away. In order to avoid an accident, as soon as he left the camp, he turned on the super-core matrix and activated the 'Taoyan''s invisibility ability, causing the mecha's silhouette to disappear into the air.
Luo Yan was still uneasy and used the secret method of 'Opening the Nether Wheel' to completely enter the stealth state of the mecha.
The Valley of Sorrow is a vast area, with mountains stretching for thousands of kilometers. Under the influence of the overlord behemoth, the plants and animals here have also undergone mutations.
On the way deep into the forbidden area, Luo Yan saw a strange tree with a mouth and a crying sound. When the wind blows, it makes a sad cry, thereby attracting some animals.
Once those animals get close to this weeping tree, vines will shoot out from the mouth of the strange tree, entangle the prey and strangle it, or penetrate deep into the body of the prey from the mouth and nose to extract blood essence.
As for animals, for the time being, Luo Yan only saw a leopard with a human face.
Although it doesn't make a cry, its face is extremely sad and looks very sad.
As Luo Yan went deeper into the forbidden area, the cries coming from nowhere became more and more obvious, and the voices could be heard to be of different genders and ages.
Just like now, behind the mecha, from a jungle, a cry like a little girl's cry could be heard.
Moreover, there were vague words.
“???????????????Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, Abba, where are you? Don’t leave me behind..."
Listening to such cries, Luo Yan had no expression on his face. These sounds could not affect his emotions.
During the years he had lived on the surface, he had heard cries more tragic than this, so how could he be so easily affected.
In a blink of an eye.
it's dark.
Only then did Luo Yan reach the edge of the safe zone, which showed how large this forbidden area was.
Luo Yan hid the mecha, reported his location to Li Bohang and the others, and then took out battlefield food near the mecha and ate it.
He didn't light a fire to heat the food, so it tasted terrible. But Luo Yan wasn't picky about food, so he didn't think anything of it.

As soon as I finished eating and was about to go back to the mecha to rest, I heard someone behind me ask, "Brother, are you alone?"
In the barren mountains and ridges, there is no light and no fire.
Suddenly someone spoke from behind. Even Luo Yan was startled and almost picked up the dragon elephant next to him and turned around to sweep it across.
But he just stood up, caught the dragon elephant, and turned around slowly.
He saw under a big tree not far behind him, and there was a man's face on the tree.
He looked like a middle-aged man, wearing glasses and with empty eyes.
Then an illusory figure walked out of the tree. This 'person' asked mechanically: "Brother, are you alone?"
As he spoke, the man's head made a clicking sound, and started to rotate like a chained toy.
