"This is a plant fruit we found in a small warehouse in Peicheng District 9. It contains certain toxins and is not edible. However, we found that it will glow in an appropriate proportion of hydrogen chloride solution. In order to save electricity resources, we Use it as your usual light source.”
Just as Li Fugui was curiously observing the strange plant in the glass bottle, a crisp female voice came from behind everyone.
Li Fugui turned around after hearing this, and found a girl wearing a brown coat standing behind everyone.
The girl was not tall, only about 1.6 meters tall, and her appearance was extremely ordinary, but she had a pair of clear eyes under her black-rimmed glasses, which seemed to contain infinite expectations for the future.
Before anyone could ask questions, the girl smiled slightly, showing some white teeth, and said, "Hello, Mr. Li, my name is Yu Qian, and I was originally a graduate student at Peicheng University of Science and Technology."
Regarding the sudden appearance of Yu Qian, Li Fugui was more concerned about the area No. 9 she mentioned: "Area No. 9 you said? What do you mean?"
Facing Li Fugui's question, Yu Qian smiled and said, "Well, Mr. Li, you will get the answer at the meeting later."
"Meeting?" Li Fugui raised his eyebrows curiously.
"I heard that Mr. Li, you are coming from Yuecheng. We have held an emergency meeting specifically for you. I am responsible for taking you to the meeting venue." Yu Qian explained.
"Okay then, you lead the way." Li Fugui shrugged and said, preparing to lead everyone to follow Yu Qian to the meeting.
Seeing that Li Fugui was preparing to lead everyone to follow Yu Qian, Yu Qian quickly added: "I'm sorry, but you can only attend this meeting alone. We have specially arranged a resting place for your team, so Please rest assured.”
Li Fugui frowned when he heard this, but he had nothing to say. He just lightly told everyone to pay attention to safety and change shifts on time, and then set off to follow Yu Qian.
The building was originally an ordinary office building. Because it was relatively well-preserved and not too damaged by those wildly growing plants, it was specially used to station troops and survivors.
Just in case, all the soldiers were stationed on the first to fourth floors, and only the fifth floor would be used as residences and research sites. Along the way, there were soldiers and researchers in a hurry, watching these activities. For those who are in a hurry, Li Fugui had an inexplicable premonition that something big was about to happen.
The venue for this meeting was a remote corner room on the sixth floor. Since there was no elevator, we could only climb the stairs. It wasted a lot of time going around and around. On the way, Li Fugui also learned about it from Yu Qian. Some news about Peicheng.
When darkness just fell, Peicheng suddenly appeared like many insects in Yuecheng. The army had no room for resistance in front of those terrifying insects, even though many dark warriors had appeared among humans.
And just when Peicheng's army announced the city's retreat, strange plants suddenly appeared in Peicheng. Those plants almost seemed to appear suddenly, shrouding the entire Peicheng under a green cover.
Then a lot of fog appeared, covering the entire Peicheng, and then those strange cloth-like creatures appeared in Peicheng. People were surprised to find that the cloth-like creatures ignored humans and attacked the bugs directly.
There seemed to be endless cloth-like creatures, and the bugs were quickly wiped out by those countless cloth-like creatures.
But just as the people in Peicheng were immersed in the joy of killing the bugs, those cloth-like creatures suddenly turned around and attacked humans. By the time the people in Peicheng tried to escape, it was already too late!
As long as they pass through those fog walls, they will appear in other places in Peicheng. The inexplicable fog walls that appear on the road trap them here, and they can no longer escape!
And those floating fogs will isolate all electronic signals. Their messages cannot be sent out, and they cannot receive any outside information. They are like a desert isolated by the world, a lonely island in the sea.
The originally assembled dark warriors therefore stopped following the army and separated from the crowd and chose to survive on their own in Peicheng. They also chose to station themselves in this office building, hoping to find a way to leave Peicheng.
By the time they finished saying this, they had arrived at the door of the conference room.
Facing the old conference room door, Li Fugui's heart could not calm down.
If what Yu Qian said is true, then won't he be trapped here for the rest of his life and never be able to get out? Then wouldn’t he never reach Yandu City and never see Xiaoshu again?
Since they can get in, can bugs from the outside also get in? If a large number of insects could rush in by then, wouldn't they be no different from lambs waiting to be slaughtered?
This mysterious forest may be able to deal with those bugs, but Li Fugui is sure that before the forest can deal with the massive bugs, they will definitely die under the claws of those bugs!
Before Li Fugui could calm down, the door of the conference room in front of him slowly opened with a creak, and a slightly yellowish daylight reflected everything in the conference room in his eyes.
There were many benches placed around a large conference table, and many unfamiliar faces were sitting among them. It was not difficult to tell their identities from their clothes. On one side sat officers, and on the other side sat probably scientists.
What surprised Li Fugui was that Qu Jiacheng, one of the scientists he originally escorted, did not come. Instead, Yan Zhengyu and Jiang Jinshou, who had been injured earlier, were sitting in the row of officers. Luo Chenggong was sitting in the row of officers.
Everyone in the conference room seemed to have been discussing something before Li Fugui arrived. When Li Fugui opened the door to the conference room, the discussion stopped unconsciously, and everyone focused on Li Fugui.
Li Fugui took a deep breath to calm down the thoughts in his heart, and sat down on a chair reserved for him.
"Ahem!" As the door of the conference room closed again, Lu Lingyun cleared his throat and said, "Since Mr. Li is already here, let Xiao Wang explain the situation in Peicheng to you first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a young but resolute-looking man standing in the row of officers.
"For the convenience of explanation, we divide all forests in Peicheng into upper, middle and lower levels." The man known as Xiao Wang finished this sentence first, and then began his own introduction.
"We know that there are three types of aggressive creatures in Peicheng. The first type is a cloth-like creature. They mainly appear in the lower layer of the forest. They are extremely widely distributed in Peicheng and appear in groups. Their defense is weak, but They are extremely aggressive, and their attack method mainly relies on wrapping the human body and injecting some kind of digestive fluid. It is still unclear what ability they rely on to suspend in mid-air, and the method of reproduction is still unclear.”
"The second type is a giant insect-like creature. They live in the middle layer of the forest. A few of them will appear in the lower layer. They are not very aggressive, but if someone breaks into their territory, they will open their big mouths and suck people in. Digested in the abdomen. Their defenses are extremely strong, so we cannot kill these creatures. There is currently no specific data on these insect creatures, and the mode of reproduction is still unclear."
"The third type is a kind of super giant bird creature. They live in the upper level of the forest. Their whole bodies are made of pure fire energy. They are extremely aggressive! They are extremely fast! Because they are too powerful, no one can Surviving after close observation resulted in an extremely lack of data. I only know that they are at the top of Peicheng's food list and seem to feed on giant insect-like creatures."
After listening to Xiao Wang's introduction, Li Fugui immediately broke into a cold sweat. What is the concept of being unable to kill at all? This means that even bug-killing tanks and artillery can't do any damage to them!
The last super giant bird creature was actually made of pure fire energy. This was something that Li Fugui had never heard of before. What was even more terrifying was that this thing was actually made of giant insects that humans could not harm at all. Living things for food!
If you are really unlucky, you may not even have a chance to escape!
But it was not the time to be afraid yet. Many things were not clear yet. Li Fugui had to take a deep breath, suppress the fear in his heart and asked: "I heard Yu Qian said about area nine. What does this mean? Still Is it really impossible to get out? Will we be trapped here forever? "
Faced with Li Fugui's question, Xiao Wang straightened his glasses and explained: "When you entered Peicheng, you encountered those fog walls blocking the road. According to our scientists' many days of research, they should be a kind of portal. It’s something, but we still haven’t figured out how it works.”
"These fog walls divide the entire Peicheng into nine areas. As I said before, when you pass through those fog walls, you will appear anywhere in the nine areas of Peicheng." Xiao Wang said and came to the conference room. In front of the only blackboard in the room, pick up a piece of white chalk and draw a square with a white line on the blackboard, then divide it into nine blocks, and then name the nine blocks respectively.
"You can understand the entire square as Peicheng, these white lines are the fog walls, then these areas are nine areas." Xiao Wang said, pointing his finger to area three in the upper right corner, "We are currently in area three. , there is a fog wall above, below, left, and right of us. When you pass through the fog wall above, you may appear in any of the nine areas. Of course, you may also appear in front of the fog walls on the left, right, and bottom of area three. Appear."
"Doesn't that mean you can't know where you will appear when you pass through the fog wall?" Li Fugui was shocked.
In this way, their luck was not very good. Not only did they encounter a group of cloth-like creatures, but by chance, they also passed through the fog wall and came to Area 3 where their army was located!
If their luck was even worse, they would probably be buried in this terrifying forest!
