It was not advisable to stay here for a long time. Wu Qi was about to leave quietly when Silver suddenly turned sideways, frightening Wu Qi to the point where he almost ejected.
Fortunately, Silverback didn't notice Wu Qi. Wu Qi was frightened for nothing, and cold sweat broke out on his back. But he happened to see Silverback's eyes from this angle.
Um
Wu Qi frowned slightly. He saw that Yin Bei's eyes were turbid yellow, with no pupils or irises visible. The last time Wu Qi saw eyes like this was on a living corpse.
Wu Qi's heart skipped a beat, and a strange thought came to his mind. He repeatedly retrieved all the memories of his life, and it was indeed true that no mutant animal had such abnormal eyes.
In contrast, the humanoid beasts, shark lizards, fish-headed deer, green heads, and destruction colossi in the high-speed railway tunnel, as well as the living corpses in the ruins of the G032 base, either have no eyes, or their eyes are the same color.
Could it be that this silverback is a plague species
Wu Qi couldn't believe the conclusion he came to. Everyone in the world knows that plague species are "living corpses", losers whose original organisms were invaded by supernatural viruses and whose brains were destroyed during evolution and mutation, but their bodies evolved. The Plague Seed's consciousness was destroyed during its lifetime, and its intelligence was greatly reduced, leaving only the two brutal biological instincts of eating and attacking.
It is possible for mutated animals to evolve high intelligence, but Wu Qi has never heard of an example of a plague species evolving intelligence, not even half of the world!
Wu Qi suddenly had a very bad feeling. This is thousands of times more threatening to humans than the ever-increasing evolution speed of mutated animals. Unfortunately, he is now unable to control himself and cannot reach any base-level human gathering place. Otherwise, he must sell this information.
This is so important.
Wu Qi retreated quietly. Every time he retreated one meter, it seemed like an hour had passed.
Finally, Wu Qi returned to the entrance of the cave. He memorized the place, then turned around and left.
... ...
Wu Qi returned to the cave where he had taken shelter from the rain, and brought back two branches covered with bright red fruits. When he saw Guo Bobo and Gao Yuan again, Guo Bobo was already lying on his side on the ground and fell asleep.
Gao Yuan stood up impatiently. Wu Qi had been away for much longer than he thought. If the enemy chased him during this period, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Boss, you are finally back."
"Here." Wu Qi handed the two branches to Gao Yuan.
Gao Yuan took it with surprise and joy. He trusted Wu Qi and immediately picked a fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
The taste of the fruit in the mouth is seven points sweet and three points sour. The purple flesh under the bright red peel is plump and firm, with a lot of juice. It is obviously quite sweet. It is their savior at this time.
Gao Yuan was so hungry that he finished a fruit in three or four mouthfuls and spit out the small core. He couldn't help but wonder: "Boss, where did you get such a good fruit? Are you sure you can eat it?"
Wu Qi laughed. If he could eat it, he had already eaten it. He also asked what he was doing.
Wu Qi said calmly: "Don't worry."
Gao Yuan said "hmm" and asked Wu Qi if he wanted to wake Guo Bobo up. Wu Qi thought about it and decided to let Guo Bobo have a good rest.
Wu Qi leaned against the cold cave wall, covering the deep red scars on his back.
In fact, Wu Qi didn't know which fruits he could eat and which ones he couldn't in a jungle that he hadn't studied thoroughly. The hunter's style has always been to catch small animals for experimentation, and feed them for three days if they are in a hurry, and for seven days if they are not in a hurry. This can eliminate the possibility that most of the fruits contain chronic toxins.
If there is no time for experimentation, the simplest and crudest way is to grab it. Wu Qi just stabbed a gibbon monkey's nest, grabbed two branches full of fruits, and escaped. Gibbon monkeys always retaliate, so Wu Qi would rather receive a few more paws from the monkey than fight back.
The rain outside the cave became heavier and heavier, and suddenly thunder rumbled, and a white dragon with teeth and claws flashed across the gray sky. The white dragon-like lightning illuminated the gray sky white.
Gao Yuan suggested: "Boss, why don't I take advantage of the thunder outside to shoot and burn the body of this giant python to keep warm."
In this situation, only armor-piercing incendiary bombs can cause fire. It's just that the sound is a bit loud. If the enemy is nearby, he will be exposed.
But is it possible that the enemy is nearby? Will they find a cave to hide from the rain, or will they pursue it harder.
Wu Qi thought about it repeatedly. This is gambling, and it is also a psychological game with the enemy at a distance. The man next to Miweil is a hunter like herself. What will he choose
Wu Qi finally gave a definite answer. He signaled Gao Yuan to do it.
When the next rumble of thunder exploded in the gray sky, Gao Yuan used an RT-20 equipped with a silencer to shoot at the python's body. The armor-piercing incendiary bullet broke through the python's skin. , the giant python's corpse immediately spurted out violent tongues of fire. The tongues of fire instantly covered the entire body of the giant python. The corpse was burned by the fire, and there was an extremely violent muscle reaction. The wild dance on the ground almost affected Wu Qi and the others.
The hot fire light illuminated the small cave, and the temperature inside the cave suddenly rose a lot. The damp cave walls were being dried by the high-temperature gas released by the flames. Wu Qi and Gao Yuan took this opportunity to dry their combat uniforms.
Guo Baibo, who was sleeping soundly, felt the warmth of the flames, his tight brows relaxed little by little, and his arms no longer hugged his body tightly.
With fire and food, the situation of the three people suddenly improved a lot. Although they have to bear the risk of being discovered by the enemy, the destiny coin has always been one side for life and one side for death.
They transferred to "生" and got a rare respite.
At the same time, the cave where Wu Qi and his party settled was 1,500 meters away to the south.
There is also a cave here. There is a fire in the cave. The fire light illuminates the small space. Miweier and Hess sit face to face next to the fire.
The fuel for this "fire" was the body of a small bear.
Hess put the rifle with smoke coming from the muzzle on the ground, and took out a cigar from the pocket of his windbreaker as a habit.
He raised his head and glanced at Miwei'er, but he didn't expect Miwei'er to be looking at him at this moment. Hess paused for a moment, the cigar swirling between his nimble fingers.
Hess suddenly thrust his upper body forward, held the cigar with his fingers and flicked it into the flame, and the cigar was lit. Hess bounced back to his original position as fast as lightning, put the cigar in his mouth, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.
Miweil surprisingly did not call Heiss to put down the cigarette. She hugged her knees with her arms and buried her head in the gap between her knees and her chest.
Heisi curled up the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly: "What? You've only been chasing for two days and you're so exhausted?"
Miweier suddenly raised her head and counterattacked not to be outdone: "Can't I, Commander? If you are willing, we can continue to follow in the rain now."
