The night was turbid, and the sky was filled with gray mist. The night was a bit scary, and the four of them were carrying bags. Bring your own weapons and leave quietly through the back door of Zuimei Building.
"The streets are safe, make sure no one is following you!" Xiaohu said, "Let's go!"
Ye Yin and the other three who followed Xiao Hu circled the hidden lanes of M City and approached the foot of the mountain step by step. In the distance, I could only hear the sound of strong wind in the mountains.
Fine yellow sand drifted to every corner of the street accompanied by the faint sound of wind. It seems that this road seems to be very difficult to walk.
The ground is covered with yellow sand, with many obvious black marks, and densely packed stalls are placed on the pulpy soil.
From time to time, strong winds carried broken trees around the houses and floated onto the street.
"I can feel that there are many mutants walking back and forth nearby, with weapons in their hands. They should be people guarding the foot of the mountain. Xiaohu, are you sure this road is the shortest one?"
Xiaohu looked at Ye Yin and said helplessly: "Of course I'm sure that this is the shortest way. But I'm not sure that this is a road that is not guarded by mutants!"
Ye Xiu looked at the marks on the road and said, "Is it possible that they have known our movements for a long time, so they have set a trap on this shortcut?"
"Probably not. If that were the case, these mutants wouldn't be standing there! I know Hei Laojiu. He is used to letting his men ambush nearby after setting up traps. Those mutants wander back and forth. , definitely not his idea! Presumably, these people are just telling us that this road has been divided by them." Xiaohu said.
"It doesn't matter. We just go up and knock them over." Ke Han said: "As long as we are fast enough, they can't resist! As for those wet marks on the ground, I think they are not traps. It should be caused by some kind of corrosive liquid. You guys stay on guard while I go out and take a look."
"I'll go. This road looks a bit weird! Although it is the civilian house closest to the foot of the mountain, it feels like no one has walked around all year round. Look, the dead grass on both sides of the road has grown to more than one meter high. ! General, I have dark energy protection, even if they have hidden weapons, they can't easily hurt me." Ye Yin said.
"Okay, then be careful, we'll cover you!" Ke Han shrank back.
Ye Yin nodded and walked out of the corner of the room. Drawing back his weapon, he walked slowly forward along the road.
After walking a few steps, I saw a head suddenly appear in front of the level.
The man was wearing a black suit and holding a machine gun. Seeing the person in front of him approaching, he shouted: "Stop, what are you doing? I wonder if this place is closed? What are you doing here?"
Ye Yin's lips curled up slightly, and he slowly walked around the rotten roads and said, "Brother, are you the only one on duty tonight? Thank you for your hard work!"
The man in the black suit raised his gun, pointed at Ha Yin and shouted: "If you don't leave, I'm going to shoot!"
Ye Yin was happy: "You are going to shoot, okay. Let's see who is the fastest!"
Ye Yin opened his palm slightly and saw a dark crack waving out of the air. Behind the man in the suit, a dark vortex suddenly opened.
The man in the suit was about to pull the trigger, but unexpectedly, he was pulled into the vortex by strong gravity. His body gradually disappeared and entered the dark crack from head to toe. The air fluctuated again, the crack disappeared, and everything returned to its original state.
Ye Yin squatted down and looked at the potholed ground, only to see a large number of corrosive cracks covering the entire road.
Is it possible that after so much acid rain here, no one cleans the streets? This kind of road surface is deliberately designed to make it difficult for people to go up the mountain! But at this moment, he suddenly discovered that the corrosive cracks were not only the size of raindrops.
Some are big and big, as big as pancakes. Some are in a ray, and some are curved and irregular. These marks don't look like they were caused by raindrops.
After all, when raindrops fall in dense clusters, the entire road surface will be sunken. These marks were obviously caused by someone deliberately spraying corrosive liquid on the road surface.
In other words, perhaps some aggressive incidents have occurred here before. The weapon is corrosive liquid.
The direction of the liquid spray also happens to be the level up the mountain.
Could it be that someone tried to go up the mountain from here a long time ago? Ye Yin walked forward until he reached the checkpoint, but he didn't find anyone.
He waved to the three people in the dark, and they rushed over.
"Brother, did you find something?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Look at the ground. I always feel that what happened here is a bit strange."
"You think there's something wrong with the marks on the ground," Ye Xiu said.
"That's right, it's not just a problem. I always feel that this road has been attacked by more than one group of people. Xiaohu, are you really the only one who knows the shortcut you mentioned?" Ye Yin asked doubtfully.
Xiaohu said helplessly: "Except for me and Hei Laojiu, and his gang of brothers, no one else knows about this road. If anyone tries to break through, it is probably by mistake." Bar."
Ye Xiu carefully observed the nearby environment, the marks on the ground, and the pits and defects on the level. He thought silently in his heart: The acid rain here falls so frequently, and there are still many people rushing to pass. Why is there only one person stationed on this shortcut? Or is this person just for decoration? The purpose is just to prove that Hei Laojiu has the monopoly on this road?
"I think you don't need to think too much. Of course there will be people who accidentally bump into the mountain. It's like a secret passage. No matter how hidden it is, there will be a few people who accidentally find him. It's just that. , The person who discovered it didn’t know where this secret passage leads to, and what kind of dangers there are? Those who are incompetent will naturally lose their lives. "
"This type of jet ray looks like it was caused by someone using their mouth to vomit. Come and see here." Ye Xiu pointed to the ground.
I saw that there were many corrosive traces on the ground he was pointing to, in the shape of rays, some in the shape of needles, and some in the shape of round holes. Some condensed into a large piece, looking like a random splash of water. There are no rules and no rules at all.
Ye Yin said: "You want to say that there are mutants who have invaded here?"
Ye Xiu nodded: "I think so. In other words, in addition to Boss Hei and others, there may be other mutants mixed in in this mountainous area. However, we don't know the purpose of these mutants. "
"Okay, you two." Ke Han said, "Even if this is the case, what can we do? Do we need to be afraid of these mutants?"
"Of course not. I just want to make sure. How big is the risk here?" Ye Xiu said.
Khan smiled: "Okay, don't scare yourself. Let's continue moving forward. As long as we don't encounter high-level spiritualists and psychic masters, we don't need to worry too much along the way. Besides, Even if they encounter it, given the current situation, they will not be able to use their full capabilities.
The strength of the department. As for the use of military weapons, just leave it to me. "
"Okay, let's go."
The four of them walked along the dilapidated mountain road and gradually reached the foot of the mountain. At night, mist covered the entire mountainous area. Silent mountains. It seems like the sound of walking echoes.
After walking for about five minutes, Ye Yin suddenly waved his hand to signal everyone to stop.
"What's wrong?" Ye Xiu asked, "Did you discover something?"
"There seem to be a lot of people walking on the mountain road ahead."
"what kind of person?"
"It's swaying, it should be mutated, and the number is quite small."
"Are you armed?"
"No, they are empty-handed!"
"If I guessed correctly, they should be some people from other places who have lost their minds. They lost themselves in order to eat. The virus ate their brains, so they wandered around and came here. These people eat everything they see. , when I see an animal, I want to bite it, so no one cares about them." said the little fox.
"Come on, let's go take a look."
The four of them ran quickly and passed by a small forest. I saw a jump on a mountain road overgrown with weeds.
Many black figures were swaying as if they were drunk. They made indistinct sounds from their mouths, and large swaths of mist were spit out from their mouths.
Their eyes look dark green, like ghosts in the dark night, waiting for their prey to take the bait.
"It turns out that these people are easy to solve!"
Ke Han took out a C-4 bomb from his pocket and threw it towards the crowd.
The bomb flashed scarlet light and made a harsh sound, attracting all the mutants to surround it. They shouted, waved and stamped toward the bombs. After three seconds, all the mutants were blown to pieces.
"Look, isn't this solved?" Khan smiled: "Let's move on. By the way, Xiaohu, where is the lake you mentioned? How long will it take?"
"Follow the mountain road in front, and you'll be there in about three minutes."
The harsh sound of the bomb attracted many birds and animals in the forest.
Various ghostly sounds intertwined together. It was as if the entire forest was in hell, with mourning everywhere.
"General, did your behavior just now trigger these mutated beasts? Will we become targets?" Ye Xiu asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, these mutant beasts will not attack passers-by easily when they are not sure. They saw this group of mutants secretly and were blown up like this in an instant, so they will not show up easily." Xiaohu said.
The three of them hurriedly walked through the winding path, and a long wooden bridge appeared in front of everyone.
Under the wooden bridge is a lake with floating mist. Under the moonlight, the lake reflects a little fluorescence. It looks crystal clear. However, there are no plants living around the lake. There is only a little vegetation about half a meter wide near the lake surface, surviving in an awkward manner.
Seeing this scene, the confusion on Ye Yin's face became even more serious.
Taking a closer look, there seemed to be a lot of activity underneath the lake. However, he could not sense these traces of activity. What is it?
"Everyone, please wait a moment."
"Brother. What's wrong? What did you find?"
