Lu Yuan just said that we should go to the left, purely out of feudal superstition, but the Zerg would definitely not believe that the left is auspicious and the right is unlucky. The right road has fewer mutants and does seem safer. After all, no one knows the specific situation inside, so we can only trust the instruments for the time being.
Lu Yuan had already said this, so there was no need to argue any further. Admiral Safir weighed the pros and cons and ordered the troops to move to the right. However, as soon as they entered the deep path, they keenly sensed that something was wrong.
It’s nothing, it’s just too quiet around here.
This kind of silence is not the kind of silence without any sound, but a kind of dead and desolate silence. They can even hear the sound of their own hearts beating and their blood flowing slowly.
The end of the road was pitch black, with thick fog rising all around. One could not even see the scenery ahead. Ancient trees blocked out the sun, with branches growing wildly. They hid in the darkness with twisted figures, looking enchanting and bizarre.
"Crack—"
"Crack—"
A slight crisp sound suddenly came from the front, like someone chewing something hard like bones, which seemed particularly abrupt in the silent jungle.
Everyone looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong, but they had no choice but to continue moving forward, holding their light energy guns tightly in their hands, ready for any emergency at any time.
Lu Yuan had sharp eyes and noticed that there seemed to be a huge black bird in front of the mist, with its back to them and its head down to gnaw on something. Its feathers were mottled in color, but they disappeared at the neck, replaced by long, black hair. If you ignore the bird's claws on the lower body, it looks like a human with its back to them.
Reporter Mao Si was willing to sacrifice his life to dig out news, so he was obviously not afraid of a mere strange bird. However, after being kicked to the ground by Lu Yuan, he was quite sensible and followed the team to evacuate to the left while holding his precious camera.
I saw that the strange bird had thin and upturned eyes covered with thick eyelashes. Its nose was not like the two holes of ordinary birds, but had a high nose bridge like humans. Its beak was short and sharp. Its slender neck had no feathers, but was covered with red tumors. The long hair on the top of its head hung down, half-covered, shaped like a human face, which made people's scalps numb.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but curse loudly as he looked at the overwhelming swarm of flying ants attacking him. The bodies of these mutated flying ants were as big as an adult's fist, and their mucus was corrosive and paralyzing, which could chew a person into a skeleton in ten seconds.
“Crack!”
"boom!"
The northern Zerg had not moved, their eyes were cold and indifferent. The beliefs they had been taught since childhood were completely different from those in the West. They believed in keeping a low profile and putting interests first. This was the case tens of thousands of years ago when they had not yet separated from the West. Now the situation was so dangerous that rushing forward would be tantamount to committing suicide, so they would not act rashly.
When Lu Yuan was wandering in the dense forest before, he had seen with his own eyes these flying ants preying on prey that were hundreds of times larger than themselves. He usually saw these ants taking a detour, so how come there were suddenly so many of them today!
Upon seeing this, the female soldiers who were responsible for protecting them immediately refilled their magazines and fired wildly into the air. However, the flying ants kept swooping down on them, wave after wave, as if they could never be killed.
The strange bird suddenly let out a shrill woman's laugh, which echoed in the dense forest. Then it spread its wings that were several meters long and flew directly towards Lu Yuan and the others.
One of the female soldiers looked at Phaeth and asked hesitantly, "Chief, should we retreat or go up to help?"
According to Admiral Safir's estimation, ten minutes should be enough for Lu Yuan and his team to retreat to a safe place. However, he did not expect that there was a dense colony of giant flying ants on the road to the left. The situation was not much better than theirs, and they were forced to retreat back the same way.
Admiral Safir obviously didn't expect that Phaeth would help. He looked at them in surprise, frowned and said, "If you delay for another ten minutes, find a way to fly away and retreat! Don't waste time!"
But this road was chosen by Phaeth. If he didn't kill the strange bird in front of him, wouldn't it prove that Lu Yuan's choice was correct? He couldn't swallow this breath!
“Hehe~”
"Teams two and three, cover the equipment and retreat! Team one will stay behind to provide cover!"
At the critical moment, Admiral Safire decisively ordered the team to escort the professor and the equipment away first. He spread his wings behind him and flew into the sky with a team of members to stop the strange bird.
Lu Yuan and Justu raised their guns and fired almost at the same time, firing several shots at its eyes. Although they failed to hit it, the strange bird still felt pain, and its claws loosened and let go of the two female soldiers.
"Oh shit!"
The moment the pure black wings spread out in the sky, they all seemed to have abandoned their beliefs of many years. Long before this land was completely divided, their ancestors had fought side by side like this. At that time, the friendship had nothing to do with skin color and there was no distinction between high and low.
The team was full of well-trained female soldiers. Seeing this, they immediately retreated slowly with their guns in hand. However, at this moment, a crisp sound suddenly rang out in the air, startling them all and freezing in their tracks.
The highest mutant species currently known in the Salilan Empire is no more than T2, but the giant bird in front of him already has intelligence, and his level is at least T4!
The strange bird in the distance seemed to have noticed something. It paused its eating action, slowly turned around and looked over. Its face made all the insects gasp.
Justu threw the refill to Lu Yuan, pushed him back, and urged him in a deep voice: "Quickly retreat with them! I'll come find you later!"
After he finished speaking, the silver wings behind him spread out, and his figure quickly flew into the sky, entering a half-insect state, and began to fight with the strange human-faced bird.
In this way, when I fall asleep, I will not forget my former comrades.
I saw that the Star Network reporter Mao Si raised his camera at some point, pointed it at the strange bird in the distance and pressed the shutter. A flash of light appeared particularly abrupt in the dim light.
There were a large number of female soldiers in the north, and they were warlike by nature. After they joined the battlefield, they obviously reversed the situation and slightly reduced the pressure on Justu and his men. However, the strange bird was huge and difficult to deal with, so it was still quite difficult to stop it.
If I am destined to die,
No need for gold and silver to be buried with the dead, no need for fancy clothes to be adorned.
They all found that there was something wrong with the strange bird. Even Phaethon did not say a word. With a gloomy face, he signaled his subordinates to retreat along the same route and not to make any sound.
Upon seeing this, the team immediately turned around and retreated, and fired shots to stop it. However, it was too late. The giant bird had already flapped its wings and swooped over. Its claws as hard as steel grabbed the two female soldiers and flew into the sky.
Phaeth gritted his teeth and spat out these words word by word. The pure black wings behind him suddenly spread out, stirring up a swift cold wind. The nails on his hands instantly grew larger, covered with a layer of hard and sharp scales. He flew up into the sky first and joined the battle.
Please give me a pair of flawless wings,
"boom!"
Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little shocked: What the hell is this? !
Justu silently grabbed Lu Yuan and pulled him behind him. At the same time, he raised his hand to signal the team behind him to stop moving forward and turn back immediately.
Lu Yuan knew that his fighting power was not high, and staying would only cause trouble, so he could only help the team evacuate. He turned around and saw the fearless Star Network reporter still snapping photos of the sky. Veins on his forehead throbbed, and he kicked him hard on the butt: "Take photos of your mother! Run!"
"Come on!"
Upon hearing the leader's order, the remaining female soldiers in the northern army frowned and hesitated for a moment, then they all spread their wings and transformed into a semi-insect state, and followed closely to help.
The right wing is black, the left wing is white,
Then set up a stone tablet for me to record my past achievements.
It was this guy who didn't use silent mode when taking a photo and startled the strange bird. Lu Yuan wanted to kick him to death!
Phaeus said nothing, his face was gloomy and ugly. The North and the West had a long-standing grudge and had always been at odds with each other. It was good enough that they did not cause trouble in secret. How could they go up to help? It would be extremely stupid to sacrifice their own troops to save those hypocritical western nobles!
An old professor in protective clothing saw more and more flying ants, so he quickly opened the instrument box and shouted anxiously to everyone: "There is a torch in the instrument box! Use the torch to burn them quickly!"
Admiral Safir's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he said sternly: "Not good! Retreat quickly! It's a T4 advanced mutant!"
For some reason, the flying ants did not attack Lu Yuan. He heard that there was a fire can in the instrument box, so he immediately climbed onto the loader, took out a bunch of cylindrical weapons, and threw them one by one to the female soldiers who were shooting: "Burn them with fire!"
Fire attack is obviously easier than light energy bombs. Upon hearing this, the female soldiers took the fire tubes and immediately sprayed flames into the air. A burning smell instantly spread, and the flying ants were roasted into charcoal.
The captain of the second team seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly frowned and said, "Not good! There is a queen ant behind them controlling the team!"
Looking along the dense group of flying ants, I saw a giant white ant lying quietly on the ground in the distance. Its body was gently wriggling, and under its body was a densely packed mass of ant eggs, and on average a large number of flying ants could hatch every minute.
The queen ant was tightly protected by a group of higher-level flying ants, who were "diligently" laying eggs. The hatching speed was obviously faster than the extinguishing speed of the fire tubes, and the female soldiers could no longer resist.
Lu Yuan thought, no wonder it never burns out, it turns out you can refill it infinitely. The saliva of these flying ants is paralyzing, and after being bitten, your limbs will soon become stiff. Many female soldiers have been bitten, and if this continues, it won't be long before the entire team is paralyzed.
Lu Yuan looked up at the queen ant and directly pulled out the light energy gun from his waist to shoot. However, the queen ant's skin had extremely strong defense and the light energy bullet could not cause any damage to it.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, picked up the only remaining torch in the instrument box, and ran towards the direction of the queen ant while no one was paying attention. The flying ants did not attack Lu Yuan, but when they flew over him in overwhelming numbers and hit him, the force was like a knife scraping, causing great pain.
Someone behind him called out to him, "What are you doing? It's dangerous! Come back!"
Lu Yuan turned a deaf ear to them, covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and used a fire gun to drive away the huge flying ants. He ran with difficulty to the direction where the queen ant was.
The queen ant is the king of the entire flying ant colony, but it has no offensive power except for laying eggs. The magazine has been used up. Lu Yuan pulled out a military dagger from behind, gritted his teeth and stabbed it directly above the queen ant's head.
“Crack!”
The queen ant's head was fine, but the tip of the knife was broken. Because Lu Yuan used too much force, his entire palm was cut by the dagger. Blood flowed down the blade and also flowed into the queen ant's skin.
“Swish!!”
At this moment, something amazing happened. The queen ant, who had been calmly laying eggs just now, suddenly let out a sharp and painful scream, struggled desperately, and smoke came out of her head.
It was calling on its people to kill Lu Yuan, but as soon as the flying ants approached Lu Yuan, they were frightened by the blood on his body and retreated, forming a vacuum circle around them.
Lu Yuan then realized that they seemed to be very afraid of his blood, so he cut his palm with a dagger, then held the bloody dagger and stabbed it hard -
“Puff!”
Lu Yuan's blood was corrosive to the queen ant. This time the dagger went straight into its head without any obstruction. A sharp and shrill cry echoed through the dense forest, causing pain in Lu Yuan's eardrums. The swarms of flying ants suddenly scattered and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The strange bird that was fighting with Justu and the others in the sky seemed to have sensed something and suddenly became impatient. It flapped its several-meter-long wings vigorously, directly blowing down the female soldiers around it, and dived towards the direction where Lu Yuan was.
In the dense forest, the mutated flying ant eggs are a supreme delicacy for birds. Now that the ten-thousand-year-old queen ant has died, the ant eggs under its body naturally lose their protection.
The human-faced bird let out that shrill, ghost-like laugh again, and it seemed that it was preparing to have a hearty meal.
Justu realized that Lu Yuan was in the flying ant pile. His pupils shrank suddenly with shock. He spread his silver wings behind him and rushed forward quickly to take him away. However, the human-faced bird was even faster. It grabbed Justu from the air with its sharp claws and swooped down in front of Lu Yuan.
“!!!!”
When Lu Yuan saw this monster injuring Justu, his eyes widened in shock and he was filled with anger!
It happened in a flash. He suddenly stepped forward with lightning speed, dodged the attack of the sharp beak of the strange bird with a human face, grabbed its neck, and cut it hard with the bloody dagger. In an instant, blood gushed out and splashed all over Lu Yuan's body.
The human-faced bird obviously didn't expect that it would be cut by an ordinary dagger. Its throat was corroded by Lu Yuan's blood and emitted bursts of green smoke. It reacted and began to flap its wings violently, making a short painful hiss. Its sharp claws directly scratched Lu Yuan's right arm.
However, this move was tantamount to hurting the enemy 800 times and hurting oneself 10,000 times. Lu Yuan's blood would only make it feel more painful. Lu Yuan tightly grasped the neck of the strange bird, pressed it to the ground, and stabbed it in the neck, cursing angrily as he stabbed:
"Fuck you! I just found my new boyfriend! I can't even bear the pain! How dare you hit him! You look like a bird and dare to come out and scare people! Can't you just stay in your nest!!"
Half of Lu Yuan's face was covered in blood, his expression was grim, and he looked like an evil spirit as he stabbed with a knife and cursed. The female soldiers nearby who had wanted to rush over to help were all frightened when they saw this. They stared at the scene in front of them with dull eyes and swallowed hard: This insect is too ferocious!
Only reporter Mao Si excitedly raised his camera and took a lot of photos of the scene. Giant flying ants, strange birds with long hair, what a hot topic! It will be hard not to go viral when it is posted on Starnet!
Lu Yuan stabbed the bird more than ten times in a row until the dagger broke. Then he stood up from the ground panting. The strange bird was already dead beyond dead, with its body pierced like a sieve.
Lu Yuan threw away the broken dagger in his hand with a clang. His mind, which had been overwhelmed by anger just now, finally calmed down, and he remembered to check on Justu's condition.
Justu had been fighting for too long and was already exhausted, not even having the strength to fly. There were several deep scratches on his chest and abdomen, with his skin and flesh turned inside out, looking very scary. His military uniform was soaked in blood, showing a shocking dark red.
Lu Yuan was shocked when he saw this, and quickly helped him up from the ground: "Justu?!"
Justu was so badly injured that he even retracted his silver wings silently. He looked at Lu Yuan with a pale face, and was relieved to see that Lu Yuan was fine. He frowned and shook his head: "I'm fine..."
There were military doctors in the team, and Admiral Safir immediately dispatched them to treat Justu's injuries. Lu Yuan had to step back and make room for him. However, as soon as he stood up from the ground, his vision suddenly went dark, and he staggered and couldn't even stand steadily.
The military doctor exclaimed and quickly supported him: "Are you okay?!" Lu Yuan forced himself to cheer up and shook his head vigorously: "No... It's okay... I just feel a little..."
Military doctor: "What's going on?"
faint.
Before Lu Yuan could finish his words, he closed his eyes and fainted. The military doctor subconsciously caught him and found several shocking scratches on Lu Yuan's shoulder blades. He hurriedly shouted anxiously: "Hurry and bring the medicine box over! There is a wounded person here too!"
Several leaders in this team knew Lu Yuan's identity as a male insect. When they heard that he was injured, their faces changed drastically and they hurriedly grabbed the medical soldiers to treat his injuries. It is conceivable that there was chaos again.
However, Lu Yuan didn't know all this. He just felt that he had a very long sleep. In his dream, he saw a yellow bus driving slowly on a mountain road. The road was bumpy and shaking, which woke him up directly.
When Lu Yuan opened his eyes dazedly, he found himself in a green military tent with a soft air mattress under him. When he moved his fingertips slightly, half of his shoulder felt numb.
Yusitu had been staying up all night to watch over him. When he noticed Lu Yuan had woken up, he quickly got up from the ground and touched his forehead to test the temperature. He frowned and asked worriedly, "How is it? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Lu Yuan was still a little confused. It took him a few seconds to understand what he meant. He asked a little late, "Where am I..."
Justu explained in a low voice: "Inside the tent. We are not far from the center of the dense forest. We will reach our destination after walking a little further at dawn tomorrow."
During the time when Lu Yuan was unconscious, Admiral Safir was worried that staying where he was would attract other mutants, so he kept moving forward at a rapid speed. Fortunately, he did not encounter any difficult problems along the way, and it was not until the second half of the night that he found a safe place to camp and rest.
Lu Yuan looked down at himself and found that he was wrapped in gauze. The wound had obviously been bandaged. He looked up at Justu, but saw that he was only wearing a loose white shirt. Through the collar, he could vaguely see the thick gauze inside, and the edges were even slightly stained with blood.
Justu's injuries were clearly much more serious.
Lu Yuan frowned and sat up from the bed: "How is your injury?"
Justu shook his head: "I'm fine."
After he finished speaking, he half-knelt on one knee beside the bed and checked the wound on Lu Yuan's back. He found that the gauze did not bleed through, then he leaned his head and kissed Lu Yuan's cheek, leaving a slightly cool kiss, and said in a vague voice: "Sir, I have to say, I regret bringing you here..."
The deep forest is so dangerous that even a powerful S-class warrior can hardly protect himself in such an environment, let alone protect others. Yusitu repeatedly recalled the scene of the attack yesterday, assuming 10,000 possibilities in his mind, and found that the best outcome was that he and Lu Yuan died together, and there was no other possibility of escape.
Die together...
This cruel remark made Justu feel moved but reluctant. He longed to be with the other person forever, but was unwilling to inflict any harm. Until this moment, Justu realized that he had always hoped that Lu Yuan could live well, even if this hope of life had nothing to do with him.
Lu Yuan noticed that Youstu seemed to be blaming himself. He was silent for a moment before saying, "... But I don't regret coming here."
Justu's crimson eyes stared at him quietly, as if he had guessed something long ago, but he just didn't say it: "You want to find where you came from, right?"
Or, that place can also be called home.
Justu was the witness who personally brought Lu Yuan out of the dense forest. He knew his special origin better than any other insect. Lu Yuan and Salilanfa were so incompatible that Justu could not think of a second possibility except that he was a stranger.
In fact, Justu was not afraid of Lu Yuan's threat to marry a female servant.
He thought the other party wanted to find his hometown.
So even though he knew it was wrong, he still led Lu Yuan over here...
That's all.
Lu Yuan shook his head: "It doesn't matter, Justu."
Whether he could go back or not was no longer important to Lu Yuan. He followed here just to protect Justu's safety. Even if he couldn't, it would be good to accompany him.
"I'm just concerned about your safety, that's all,"
When he wants to take root and stay in a place, the place he came from is no longer important.
Justu frowned when he heard this: "But I'm sure you seem to be looking for something."
Lu Yuan did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before saying: "I have a few lost companions, I want to confirm whether they are still alive."
Justu frowned when he heard this: "Do you have any other companions?"
Lu Yuan hummed: "Since I can get out of the jungle alive, maybe they can too."
Yusitu didn't want to hit Lu Yuan, but he could only speak the truth and said meaningfully: "Maybe it's a little difficult, sir, after all, not all male insects can fight as well as you."
Not all male insects can kill two T4-level mutants with their bare hands. This ability is already so strong that it is a bit abnormal.
Lu Yuan didn't know what Yusitu was thinking. He lay down on the air mattress, then made room for Yusitu to lie down on it. "It's getting late. Go to bed. Next time you encounter this situation, you don't have to stay up all night to watch over me. Just go back to your tent and sleep."
Seeing that Lu Yuan's injury was not serious, Yusitu finally relaxed his tense nerves and lay quietly on the bed with him in his clothes. Hearing this, he closed his eyes and said helplessly: "Sir, this is my tent."
In the military camp, only the commander-in-chief could live in a tent alone. The adjutants and soldiers all slept together in collective tents. Justu simply gave his bed to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan: “…Oh.”
Lu Yuan was not embarrassed at all and just closed his eyes and went to sleep.
After a large-scale battle, the mental strength of the military females can easily be on the verge of a riot, especially as they are getting closer and closer to the center of the Originium. Many military females in the team are experiencing headaches, and even the strong northern female insects are not much better.
Early the next morning, when the team continued to set off, Lu Yuan clearly discovered that many female soldiers had bloodshot eyes, and the whole insect looked extremely irritable.
Lu Yuan subconsciously looked at the professor from the research institute who was accompanying him and asked, "Their condition doesn't look good. What should we do when we clear the source stones later?"
The old professor shook his head: "The task of clearing the source stone is given to us. Their mental power is very unstable now, and it is not suitable for them to get close to the polluted source stone."
Lu Yuan nodded: "I see."
He was wondering why they brought in a group of weak old professors. It turns out they were all for this purpose.
The deeper the team went into the dense forest, the more familiar the surrounding scenery became to Lu Yuan. He directed the way to Admiral Saphir in an orderly manner. This time, no insects objected, and even Phaeth rarely turned off the engine.
During the journey, they passed three lakes and two swamps, and finally arrived at a vast sea of roses when the sun set.
That is the heart of the entire Solitia forest and where the Originium is buried deep.
The sun is about to set, and its shadow slowly disappears from the horizon, leaving behind a gorgeous rose-colored cloud. Dusk gradually approaches the edge of the sunset, reluctantly grabbing the corner of the clothes to try to keep it, and then dyes the sky a gentle blue-pink.
Below are endless mountains and lakes, as well as tens of thousands of square kilometers of rose sea. The evening breeze carries the fragrance of flowers across this vast, untrodden land, blowing up countless petals and creating a rain of roses.
White crows flap their wings and fly across the sky, and roses grow wantonly. They have long been hidden in the dense forest, witnessing the immortality and rise and fall of this land, but still maintain their original posture.
It had been a long time since Salilanfa had seen such a vibrant scene. Seeing this, the army stopped unconsciously and stared at the fragrant and beautiful scene in front of them. It was obvious that they did not expect that the place where the source stone was buried would be so beautiful.
An old professor's instrument suddenly beeped twice, and the red light began to flash frequently, not knowing whether it had sensed the pollution source. He subconsciously looked at the instrument, but saw that the pointer pointed to the direction of the rose sea. He said to Admiral Safir in a daze, "Admiral, have we... have we found the pollution source stone?"
There was a hint of disbelief in the old professor's words. His voice suddenly became hoarse and even choked with sobs at the last few words. His hand holding the instrument began to tremble uncontrollably. In a moment, his eyes were red and he said with tears streaming down his face, "We... We finally found it..."
Salilanfa sacrificed countless warriors to find the Originium that he had always dreamed of...
Admiral Safir closed his eyes upon hearing this, and silently clenched his fingertips. He inexplicably felt an indescribable sadness and grief. His face, which was slightly tired and old due to the battle, finally showed a trace of relief. When he opened his eyes again, his gaze had become firm, and he ordered word by word: "All the wounded rest on the spot, and the rest of the team members, come with me to escort the equipment into the sea of flowers and remove the contaminated source stone!"
After a long journey, he was inevitably a little absent-minded. When he heard Admiral Safir's order, he reacted silently and followed the team into the sea of flowers. However, when he turned around, he saw Yusitu following him and frowned, "You are a wounded soldier, what are you doing following me?!"
Justu's face was still a little pale, but his eyes were still sharp. Hearing this, he curled his lips slightly, his expression was the same as before: "Sir, you seem to be injured too."
Lu Yuan: "But I'm not a military girl, and I don't have the hidden danger of mental disorder."
Justu didn't care. He used his gun to push away the sea of flowers and protected him behind him, taking deep and shallow steps. "It's okay. I have a soothing drug."
Lu Yuan thought about it and it made sense. After all, he had pheromones, so at worst he could just help calm Justu down, so he didn't object.
They had been approaching the center of the Originium according to the direction of the instrument's pointer. However, as the distance shortened, the contaminated radiation became stronger and stronger. Many female soldiers' mental powers were disturbed and they fell behind. In the end, only a few old professors wearing reinforced protective clothing and Lu Yuan were still moving forward.
And Justu.
Lu Yuan was a little out of breath. He turned around and looked behind him, only to see Justu following him. The other party's face was as pale as paper, and it was obvious that his mental strength had been stretched to the limit.
"Justu, don't go."
Lu Yuan suddenly said, "Just wait for me here."
The higher the level of the female military officer, the greater the interference she will suffer. Even Admiral Saphir couldn't hold on. Justu is an S-level female insect, so the pain will only be greater.
Justu shook his head and said, "It's okay. Just keep going. I can't walk anymore, so I'll stop naturally."
He knew the road was long and he was not afraid of pollution, but he still wanted to follow, taking each step as far as he could.
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment: "Then I will take ten steps and you can take one step. If you can do this, I will give you something when you come back."
Justu raised an eyebrow: "What?"
Lu Yuan didn't tell him: "You will know when you come back."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and continued to help the professors push the instrument forward. Halfway through, he looked back and found that Justu had fallen behind, following his pace obediently, taking only one step every ten steps.
The night was getting darker, and the road was long. In the end, he didn't know how long he had walked. He just felt his legs were numb. Just when he was about to give up, he heard the pollution detector suddenly make a series of rapid beeps. Seeing this, the old professors stopped and lay on the ground to check carefully. Finally, they exclaimed in surprise: "The source stone is here!"
Lu Yuan asked in surprise: "Are you sure?!"
One of the old professors picked up the soil on the ground, turned on the light, and confirmed again: "Yes, the Originium is buried here. The color of the soil nearby is exactly the same as the sample in the laboratory before!"
After they finished speaking, they quickly took out the shovel from the instrument box and started digging directly on the ground. The contaminated energy of the source stone mainly comes from the core. As long as the core is taken out and sealed in a special isolation box, and then brought back to the laboratory of Saliland for processing, this mission will be considered half successful.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan found an ordnance shovel and prepared to help dig. However, when he glanced behind him inadvertently, he found that there was a low valley behind him. In the dim moonlight, he could vaguely see a black shadow at the bottom.
what
Lu Yuan frowned, worried that it was another mutant, so he borrowed a pair of night vision binoculars from the professor next to him. However, when he looked down the valley, he saw a dilapidated bus lying quietly at the bottom of the valley. The bus had been severely deformed and covered with a thick layer of dust. He adjusted the binoculars to the maximum magnification, and could vaguely make out a few crooked words on it:
Little Yellow Duck Tour Group.
