"Shan Peng?!"
Chen Lang looked sideways, looking at the smoking muzzle behind him in shock.
This Shan Peng shot just as he said he should! There is obviously nothing ahead...
"Captain, are you too old to be blind?! Didn't you see such a big bug?!"
Before Shan Peng's violently heaving chest settled down, he raised his gun, pointed at the ground not far ahead and teased.
Chen Lang was surprised, turned his head and murmured at the same time: "How could there be anything..."
However, before he could say the word "worm" out of his mouth, Chen Lang's eyes had already widened.
On the ground less than five steps in front of him, there was a bloody worm that had been beaten into two pieces!
Judging from the appearance, it is undoubtedly the individual in Experimental Subject No. 4!
"This, this...could it be that I was distracted and didn't pay attention?"
Cold sweat broke out on Chen Lang's forehead instantly. There is no doubt that if Shan Peng hadn't taken decisive action just now, he would have been possessed by the disgusting thing on the ground.
After taking a second to calm down, Chen Lang nodded slightly to Shan Peng behind him.
"Thanks...keep moving..."
But before he had taken a few steps, Shan Peng's warning sounded again!
"Captain! Upper left and lower right!"
Then there were two gunshots!
This time, Chen Lang saw it clearly. The bullet penetrated into the darkness in front of him, and two sparks were created in the originally empty position, shaking with dim light and shadow.
Two bloody bugs that looked the same as before quickly appeared, struggling and twisting on the ground, and soon lost their life.
It was at this moment that Chen Lang realized belatedly that among the three of them, perhaps only Shan Peng could see the individuals of Experiment No. 4 lurking in the dark.
"Shan Peng, you take the lead. If there is a threat, shoot directly. You don't need to ask me for instructions."
Retreating, Chen Lang gave up his position without a moment's hesitation.
"Hey, the captain gave way?"
Shan Peng curled his lips, and no matter what time, he could always make an inappropriate joke.
"I can't see those ghost things, I'll leave them to you."
Although facing Shan Peng's teasing made Chen Lang's blood pressure rise a little, the current situation was special and he was not pretentious.
If he could complete the mission alive, he would naturally have ten thousand reasons to 'take care' of Shan Peng;
But if the outcome is death, then it is not unacceptable to tolerate this kid's gossip.
"Okay, now Captain Shan Peng will temporarily take over the Greedy Wolf Team, everyone is here, let's move on!"
Shan Peng made a pretentious gesture and stood at the front of the team.
Although Shan Peng took the lead, Chen Lang and Li Ming did not let him bear all the risks alone.
The Pinzi formation fits closer together. Strictly speaking, Shan Peng is better protected.
But the strange thing is that after the formation was changed, the three of them did not encounter any danger on the way.
Experimental Subject No. 4, hiding in the dark, seemed to understand that the sneak attack could not succeed, and stopped all attack momentum.
On the contrary, the crashing sound from the northeast became more and more violent, making Chen Lang and others unable to help but worry that this magnificent man-made building would collapse at any time.
Finally, after the three members of the Greedy Wolf Team touched a small passage that was only half a person's height, the space in front of them suddenly expanded!
The heavy breathing was mixed with the sound of dripping water, like a ghostly ghost, echoing in the dark space.
Chen Lang did not turn his gaze to the surrounding darkness for the first time, but looked at Shan Peng beside him.
He understood that his eyes were useless in this darkness, so he had to rely on Shan Peng's reaction.
"How about it?"
Seeing Shan Peng's eyes immediately focused on the northeast corner, Chen Lang spoke eagerly.
"It's dark and big. Is that Experimental Subject No. 4?!"
Shan Peng, who was always talkative, looked frightened at this moment, lighting the darkness in the distance and saying with a trembling voice.
"What a big group? It seems that 80% of them are Experimental Subject No. 4..." Chen Lang thought to himself, having already turned on the safety on the gun in his hand.
But soon, doubtful voices came from Shan Peng again.
"No! Experiment No. 4 is not that big. From the monitoring logs obtained by Xiao Li Hei, it appears that it is a ball, only the size of a watermelon..."
"Perhaps I drank too much waste oil and my body swelled. The five underground floors are connected to the municipal drainage. It is reasonable to think so..."
Li Ming added in a low voice from the side that he could not see things in the dark clearly either, so he could only protect Shan Peng like Chen Lang, ready to fight at any time.
"Waste oil?!"
Shan Peng was stunned for a moment, then a strange expression appeared on his face.
"What the hell can eat gutter oil and expand nearly fifty times in size? This damn thing is almost like a balloon!"
"What?!"
When Chen Lang and Li Ming heard this, they both widened their eyes and whispered.
"Did you read that correctly? The size of that thing has expanded fifty times?!"
"I'm talking about Xiao Chen, how can you question the captain's judgment? If I hadn't picked out my eyeballs to make it safe, I would have picked out my eyeballs now to show you..."
Shan Peng let out a slightly disgusting beep, and already set up the sniper rifle in his hand.
Judging from his appearance, he was planning to fire two shots at the thing on the other side first.
"Wait a minute, did that thing show any intention of attacking us?"
Chen Lang frowned and instinctively stopped Shan Peng's somewhat reckless behavior.
"Not really, but as the saying goes, eat the grain first and the chaff later. Why don't you take advantage of this good opportunity and take advantage of it?"
Shan Peng's eyes flashed with fighting spirit, and it was obvious that he wanted to be the one who ate the food.
"What the heck, have you forgotten the purpose of our coming here? Did we make you fight to the death with that thing?!"
Chen Lang shouted, like a grinning wolf.
Shan Peng was also frightened when he heard this. Knowing that he had gone too far, he immediately lowered the raised muzzle of the gun by two points, with an embarrassed smile on his face.
"Hey, Xiao Chen is right, I, the acting captain, didn't think well..."
"Hurry and take a look, Master Qingling is here..."
Resisting the urge to kick Shan Peng in his heart, Chen Lang ordered in a deep voice.
Scanning around, Shan Peng quickly locked onto one of the corners.
The southwest direction is exactly opposite to the location of the large group of creatures.
"There are several corpses in that corner. Could Lord Qingling be inside?"
“Where else are the bodies piling up besides the southwest?”
Chen Lang frowned slightly and asked.
"No more. Apart from the big mass of things, I can't see clearly underneath, there are only corpses in the southwest corner..." Shan Peng answered honestly without adding any more nonsense.
"...Moreover, the impact sound seems to be coming from that big mass, which is hitting the load-bearing wall of the building..."
"..."
Chen Lang and Li Ming were both silent for a while after hearing this.
After a while, Chen Lang spoke and gave the order.
"Ignore it, our mission is to rescue Master Qing Ling. Even if that ghost really collapses the building, it has nothing to do with us!"
After all, what their Greedy Wolf Team is doing now is "shady", and there is no need to really work hard for the great Raponi.
After a while, Master Qingling might not be able to save him, but he would end up taking his own life instead. That would not be worth it!
Seeing that Chen Lang had already given the order, Li Ming naturally had no objections.
But Shan Peng pretended to cough softly: "Well, what Xiao Chen said makes sense, just listen to him, let's move closer to the southwest corner, ignore that big mess, and grab Master Qing Ling directly! "
The three of them started immediately and tiptoed toward the northwest corner of the underground space.
Because they were worried that the light might attract the attention of creatures in the northeast, Chen Lang and others lowered the illumination on the muzzle lights to the minimum.
Although this is still more conspicuous in the dark, it is better than strutting forward.
Fortunately, the big lump creature in the northeast seemed to be very focused on the cause of hitting the wall, and did not pay the slightest attention in the direction of Chen Lang and others.
So after about a minute, the three of them successfully arrived at the southwest corner where the bodies were scattered.
After a simple search, he found the unconscious Qing Ling crawling on top.
Seeing that the task was about to be completed, Shan Peng felt a little carried away again, and moved his steps, trying to step over the corpse and drag Qing Ling out of it.
But just when he raised his right leg and was about to complete the leaping action, Chen Lang on the side immediately stretched out his hand to stop him.
"etc!"
Seeing that Chen Lang was facing a formidable enemy, Shan Peng immediately became more vigilant. However, when he glanced around and found that the red nematodes did not appear before, he returned to his original lazy state.
"What's up, Xiao Chen? There are no nematodes on these corpses. I looked carefully..."
With that said, Shan Peng raised one leg again, preparing to tease Qing Ling out of the pile of corpses while teasing his captain.
"You kid!" Chen Lang was furious when he saw this, "Are you sure you saw clearly?!"
"You're sure, there's really nothing..."
Shan Peng glanced at the corpse in front of him again and spoke very carefully.
"Oh, how could you just look at the surface and forget the precautions given by Lord Guren? The parasitic characteristics of Experimental Subject No. 4 have not been completely eradicated!"
Seeing that Shan Peng failed to understand such a hint, a look of disappointment suddenly appeared on Chen Lang's face.
"I just used my ability, and these corpses have different levels of life intensity!"
Upon hearing this, Shan Peng was stunned for a moment, and then the joking on his face disappeared, and even the title changed back to honorific.
"Your [sense of death]?"
"Nonsense! If I weren't afraid that disturbing these corpses might cause a chain reaction, I would really like to demonstrate it to you right now!"
Chen Lang lowered his voice and said angrily.
"My dear, it turns out it's hidden inside the corpse, so I definitely can't see it. My eyes can't see through..."
Shan Peng stuck out his tongue and scratched his head in embarrassment...
