Chapter Three Hundred and Seventeen: Strong Enemy Attacks
Looking at the flowers and plants in front of him, Zheng Zhuo felt like he was about to suffer from trypophobia.
Dou Xiaomi on the side couldn't help but asked: "President, what are we doing here?"
"Come here for a casual look and verify some things." Xu Ye replied and looked at the mutated plants in front of him.
As Xu Ye approached, the flowers and plants suddenly began to tremble violently, and vines with barbs stretched out from the ground and entangled themselves towards Xu Ye.
Looking at the sharp barb, a scene of a person falling into it and being cut into bloody flesh suddenly appeared in Xu Ye's mind.
These vines scrambled around like hungry wolves discovering food and wrapped themselves around a few people.
"Huh!" A ball of flame suddenly bloomed in the palm of Xu Ye's hand.
Those vines, flowers, plants, etc. burned violently as soon as they came into contact with the flames, and after some vines were ignited, the flames spread along the roots.
A ball of fire was thrown into the center of these flowers and plants by Xu Ye, and soon the whole hall was ablaze with fire.
For a time, all kinds of weird smells spread in the hall, which was very unpleasant.
It took about 20 minutes before the plants in the hall were completely burned, and all the vines spreading on the corridor retreated back into the soil.
Plants were originally afraid of fire, not to mention Xu Ye's level 5 flames, which made them unable to resist at all.
After clearing away the plants around him, Xu Ye walked back and forth in the hall casually, looking for something at the same time.
The other people also followed with curiosity, only to find that Xu Ye kicked out helmets, armors and other things inside.
Although everyone was very confused, they didn't ask. Xu Ye rummaged around quickly and found a lot of armor in a short time.
Seeing this, Zheng Zhuo couldn't help but said with some confusion: "Brother Ye, isn't this just some armor? Is there any secret on it?
Xu Ye thought for a moment and replied calmly: "If I guessed correctly, these armors were worn by people before, and these people should live in this place like us."
Just as Zheng Zhuo was about to ask, a strange noise suddenly came from the passage on the other side of the hall, as if something was approaching!
A short figure suddenly appeared in everyone's sight. The moment he saw the crowd, the figure ran directly towards the crowd. The iron thing he held in his hand hit Xu Ye straight on the head.
Come down.
"Be careful!" someone behind him exclaimed.
However, how could Xu Ye be attacked by this thing? Xu Ye casually stretched out a palm and blocked the iron tool in the monster's hand.
The monster was secretly surprised. Its blow was actually caught by the man in front of it with bare hands. It immediately understood that it had provoked someone it shouldn't have provoked! The monster immediately wanted to run away.
However, Xu Ye thrust out his left hand, grabbed the neck of the monster in front of him tightly, and then lifted it up smoothly.
The monster struggled hard, but could not break free from Xu Ye's left hand.
"What the hell is this??" Zheng Zhuo asked subconsciously after seeing the appearance of this monster. It was neither human nor ghost. It had four limbs, just like an earth monkey.
"Ah! Roar!" Seeing that it could not break free from Xu Ye's control, the monster opened its mouth and bit Xu Ye's arm.
"Seeking death!" Xu Ye made a quick decision and squeezed hard with his left hand, crushing the monster's throat directly.
The monster's body immediately softened, and Xu Ye threw his body to the ground with a wave of his hand.
"It looks like a monkey, ugly and violent, so I call it a monkey beast." This monster is exactly the same group of little monsters Xu Ye saw when he first came to Shicheng County. He didn't expect to see them here.
"Let's go, we should go back." After a casual observation, Xu Ye turned around and walked in the direction he came from.
Along the way, everyone was discussing how the monkey beast had mutated into such a ghostly state. However, as they walked, the faces of several people except Xu Ye suddenly became a little solemn.
Just as Zheng Zhuo was about to step forward to ask, Xu Ye shook his head slightly and quickened his pace.
After walking for more than ten minutes and far away from the corridor, Zheng Zhuo couldn't help but ask: "Did you just feel like there was something behind you?"
"Brother Zheng! I feel like this too, it's so scary!" Wang Yi hurriedly replied after hearing this. The feeling just now made him a little frightened for some reason.
Dou Xiaomi replied in a deep voice: "Indeed, it seemed like someone was watching us just now, but I couldn't tell where he was!"
Several people looked at Xu Ye in unison.
Xu Ye chuckled and said, "Don't worry about it, it's just a little thing that likes to play hide-and-seek. It doesn't matter. Let's go back."
By this time, the sense of voyeurism had disappeared, and everyone had no choice but to continue walking back.
After returning to the gathering place, after parting ways with Wang Yi and the others, several people gathered in a room again.
"Brother Ye, did you discover something just now?" Zheng Zhuo asked curiously.
Xu Ye said solemnly: "If I guessed correctly, there should be an underground group here. They are hiding in the dark and observing us secretly. They are very powerful, and they do not maintain a friendly attitude towards us.
If possible, it would be better for us not to have contact with them."
"But you don't have to worry too much. After a while, we can just leave. It's better not to stay here for a long time."
The three of them looked at each other and nodded slowly.
"We..." Xu Ye was about to continue saying something when a burst of noisy shouting suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Where are you from? Tell me your name! Please stay away from our base!"
Within the fence of the base, there were seven or eight people pointing their homemade bows and arrows at the outside of the railing. The arrows of these bows and arrows were extremely sharp and looked very damaging.
Outside the stronghold, a total of forty or fifty people were slowly gathering towards the stronghold.
"Are you also the survivors who came here accidentally? Please stop immediately!" A man shouted loudly, but the people on the opposite side didn't seem to hear them and approached without saying a word.
"Why are they all wearing armor?" Some people already felt that something was wrong. Looking at the menacing appearance of this group of people, they did not look like good people!
"Go and call someone! Activate the first level emergency and notify Boss Zhang and Boss Wang that a group of strangers are coming outside!"
A man who looked like a leader shouted and ordered.
