Thirty kilometers away from the northern base, a forest blocking the sun appeared at the end of the road. Lin Yue stepped on the brakes and looked at the woods ahead: "There is no road."
The trees in this forest are tall and leafy, and the leaves are stacked on top of each other so tightly that even the sun cannot shine in. The forest is quiet and there is no sound at all, giving people a very dangerous feeling for no reason.
Han Qi got out of the car and slowly approached the woods. On his right side, there was an arched hole as high as a person. There were deep pits made by footprints on the ground, and there was a slight smell of decay in the air. He turned back to the car:
"Let's go in."
Everyone got out of the car, and six cars were parked neatly on the outside of the forest.
Han Qi took the lead, with Xie Lun behind him, and more than thirty people passed through the arched hole one by one.
After walking a few steps, I saw the carcasses of mutated animals on the ground. There were even large carnivores like tigers and wolves. After the mutation, they became even bigger. A tiger was as tall as two people. Now it
The corpses were lying on the ground, and the blood stains had long since dried up. Because there was no sunlight, these corpses were only slightly rotten.
Two people in the team whispered to each other: "I don't know who killed these mutated animals. Look at the corpses of tigers and wolves. If we encounter them, they will definitely become the food of these animals!"
"Don't be so clumsy. Boss Han Qi and the others are here. Although we are weak, we can still help mutant animals like mutant rats1"
The closer you get to the depths of the woods, the more and more corpses of mutated animals begin to appear. The human corpses mixed in among these animal corpses appear much smaller and cannot be seen without paying attention.
Han Qi walked forward along the complicated footprints on the ground, and finally some light appeared not far away: "Everyone, follow us, we will be out soon!"
Everyone cheered up. The twenty-minute journey suddenly felt like they had walked for two hours.
The light in the distance became clearer and brighter. Han Qi quickened his pace, and the people behind him also quickened their pace.
Xie Lun walked at the end, looking at the corpses of mutated animals beside him, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Han Qi took the lead to walk into the light, and through another arched hole, the people behind him also walked out one after another. The scenery in front of them made hope rise in their eyes.
This is a huge fortress, with cannons mounted on the gates and various heavy weapons on the walls. The walls are so high that no one can see the inside from the outside.
The gate was half-open, there were no corpses of mutated animals in front of the fortress, and the grass seemed to have been mowed recently.
At present, someone wanted to go in to see what was going on, but Han Qi stopped him: "We don't know what the situation is yet, so don't act rashly!"
The man blushed and retreated to his seat. He took it for granted.
Han Qi led everyone back to the arched cave: "Stay here for now."
Everyone nodded silently, now is the end of the world, there are not only zombies, but also mutated animals. Poor little people like them who have no attack power and no means of self-protection, it is better to follow the pace of the strong.
Han Qi called Xie Lun, Lin Yue, Chi Yan and Xia Chen: "At night, two people will take turns to keep vigil, just in case."
All four people nodded, and Lin Yue looked at Han Qi: "What about you?"
Han Qi looked outside the arched cave: "I'll go there at night to take a look."
Lin Yue wanted to say something, but when it came to her lips, she swallowed it: "Then be careful."

In the evening, two bonfires were kept burning. Chi Yan and Xia Chen were keeping watch in the first half of the night. Han Qi looked outside the arched cave, nodded to them, and whispered: "I'm going."
"Be careful!" As soon as Xia Chen finished saying these four words, Han Qi had already lifted his legs and walked out.
Unexpectedly, the power supply to the fortress was restored. The searchlights outside the fortress were on. The darkness in front of Han Qi was diluted by the light.
Han Qi approached the half-open door and found that a control box outside the door was corroded and the circuit board was exposed. He walked inside and found that the tall iron mesh framed a small world. On the right side was a
Han Qixian went to the office where all the signs were destroyed. There were human corpses in camouflage uniforms on the floor. There were also some urgently needed materials on the desk that had not come.
He picked up a document casually, but there was no useful information on it. He walked through the office area, followed by a dozen offices with half-open doors, and the word "Interview Room" could be vaguely seen on the rusty sign.
Han Qi continued walking inside and passed a long corridor with several human corpses in the corridor.
At the end of the corridor is an iron mesh with the door removed. It turns out that this place was originally a prison.
Han Qi stood outside the iron fence and saw at a glance that they were all human corpses, and there was a strong stench in the air.
A whimpering voice came from the depths. Han Qi covered his mouth and nose and walked carefully into the depths.
Two mutant rats were eating human corpses on the ground. Han Qi saw this scene and slowly backed away. He didn't know how many mutant animals there were here.
It wasn't until he left the office door that Han Qi let go of his hand covering his face and walked quickly towards the arched hole.
This back and forth actually took an hour. When they returned, Lin Yue and Xie Lun had replaced Chi Yan and Xia Chen and were sitting by the bonfire watching the night.
Lin Yue saw Han Qi: "You're back."
Han Qi nodded and sat next to Lin Yue. He seemed to have the smell of rotting corpses on his body. Lin Yue sniffed: "What does it smell like on you?"
"It's full of dead people and mutated rats. I only saw two. I don't know if there are more." Han Qi said in a low voice.
