After leaving the supply area, Tianyang was finally able to see the City of Corpses. Looking out the window, the city was indeed similar to the one in the Reverse World No. 127, with tall buildings and scars all over.
But this city was not dark. In addition to the light provided by flares and lighting tools everywhere in the city, the city itself also emitted a green fluorescence.
The thick, foul-smelling sewage that flows everywhere always emits a faint green fluorescence. It is almost everywhere, and the sewage emitting green fluorescence even gathers into pools in low-lying areas.
There were all kinds of debris floating in the pools, including rusty iron cans and rotten remains of unknown creatures. All kinds of things were floating or sinking in the water. In these pools that looked extremely polluted, there were actually long green grasses with unusually bright colors, which were not found in the 127th Reverse Realm.
Those water plants that are full of water and even seem to emit green fireflies are scattered here and there, and there is almost no place where they cannot survive.
Among the scattered car wreckage, there are many clumps of aquatic plants like this one emerging from the wreckage.
As for the building.
Only frames of buildings remain, houses have collapsed everywhere, and roads are often broken, with some sinking and some rising, forming various cliffs and high slopes, so that vehicles can only take detours.
In this huge ruins, corpses are everywhere.
They are most numerous at the border of the supply area. Tianyang still remembers that when the vehicle came out, he saw small hills piled up under the high defensive walls of the supply area.
That was a small hill formed by the corpses climbing up and down on each other, which forced the soldiers on the high defensive wall to regularly clear out the corpses under the wall to prevent the small hill from turning into a mountain.
That would be a disaster for the supply area.
As for the city, there were also many corpses, wandering around in the city. Among them were men, women, old people and even children.
But without exception, these things all had pale skin, hollow eyes, and more or less rotten wounds on their bodies. Some even had only half of their body left, but they were still crawling on the ground, dragging their bones and intestines.
These corpses, like wanderers, move very slowly and react very slowly. They start to accept the appearance of vehicles from a distance, but when the vehicles pass by, they don't even touch the dust raised by the cars.
After the cars had been driving for more than half an hour, some roadblocks appeared ahead and the two armored vehicles had to stop.
Lin Jun led his men down to clear the roadblocks, and Tian Yang also got out of the car to get some fresh air. The roar of the corpses in the distance made the alert soldiers dare not relax. These soldiers were the "corpse collectors". They wore standard protective clothing, held Xingsu rifles, and looked around vigilantly.
Among a group of zombies in the distance, Tianyang saw a humanoid monster. It had no skin, dark purple muscles, and an unknown liquid flowing all over its body.
Its head is somewhat like a frog, it has excellent jumping ability, and its two arms have four sharp claws.
This thing seemed to be preying on corpses. It tore the corpses into pieces easily and then put the flesh and blood into its mouth. When it turned its head, Tianyang saw that it had no eyes.
"We call that thing a 'scavenger'. It has no eyes, but a very developed sense of smell. It seems to like corpses more than humans. As long as there are corpses nearby, even if there are humans, it will
It will not attack us if it passes by."
Lin Jun came over and acted as a guide, explaining to Tian Yang: "But the 'Scavengers' are still very dangerous. They are very agile and fast. Once they are determined to hunt humans, even low-level Ascendants will be in danger."
"The fluids on their bodies and their claws are extremely poisonous. Even if the antidote is injected in time, some damage is inevitable."
"So when you encounter them..."
Whoosh—
Before he finished speaking, an arrow flew through the air and hit the 'scavenger' in the head, blowing its head apart.
Lin Zhen looked towards the chariot. On the chariot, the girl with twin ponytails named Xiaoyou was retracting her bow and arrow, and suddenly returned to the chariot.
"Well, just like this, as long as conditions permit, we will prioritize cleaning that kind of thing out. Because it has no eyes, so at this time, the Hunter and the Heart of the Element have a great advantage. As long as we keep a distance, we can kill them."
At this time, the people who were clearing the roadblocks in front screamed and cursed, and then gunshots rang out. It turned out that after the roadblocks were removed, a group of zombies gathered nearby.
Before, the chariots looked like slowly moving corpses, but now they looked like hungry wild dogs, using their hands and feet, crawling or running, rushing towards them quickly.
However, the main guns of the two tanks and so many weapon platforms were not to be trifled with. The main gun on the tank next to Tianyang immediately adjusted its direction under the control of the gunner and fired a shot, knocking down the group of zombies.
Lin Jun rushed over to take command, and the soldiers relied on each other, shooting and dispersing in an orderly manner.
The two tanks at the back provided cover fire to suppress the zombies and prevent them from rushing forward.
Just as they were about to successfully retreat to the chariot, a whistling sound suddenly broke through the sky, and then a black shadow swept down, passed through the crowd, and rushed into the air again.
Tianyang saw that it was a terrifying creature, it looked like a bird, but without feathers, and had an exoskeleton on its head. It had fleshy wings like a bat, two long forelimbs, no skin, and only bones and muscles could be seen.
The strange bird grabbed a soldier with its two hind legs and threw him into the air. Then a group of similar monsters flew in from other places. These monsters kept throwing the man around. In the process, the soldier was torn into pieces by their sharp claws. Blood and internal organs kept falling from the air. It was extremely terrifying.
"It's the Bat Owl!"
Lin Jun yelled, "Everyone get in the car, quick!"
Tianyang also returned to the car. As soon as the hatch of the tank was closed, a sharp scream and the sound of a sharp object scraping against the armor were heard outside.
The two tanks started to move, and the main guns fired obliquely into the sky from time to time. Occasionally, the monsters called "Bat Owls" were killed by the explosion, and their bodies fell heavily to the ground and turned into a ball of paste.
The chariot finally passed the obstacle and continued to drive towards the destination. On the way to the fifth area, they encountered several waves of zombies, but at this time, Lin Jun and his men did not linger in the battle.
The two tanks ejected some kind of iron cans, which flew into the air and exploded, and then a large amount of blood sprayed out from them. The blood dripped onto the ground, onto sharp objects, and onto the wreckage of the car.
The zombies that were originally rushing towards the vehicles would then turn around and rush towards the corpses that were covered in blood.
They scrambled to lick the blood-soaked ground, willingly opened their mouths to face the sharp objects that could pierce their throats, and tried in vain to bite the bloody metal debris with their already not-so-strong teeth.
Looking at these crazy scenes, Tianyang once again felt the weirdness and horror of the opposite world.
When the chariot stopped, the fifth district was finally reached.
What surprised Tian Yang was that the so-called fifth area was actually a factory. The factory was surrounded by high walls, and it was obvious that those walls were added later and were obviously processed and made by gold diggers.
After entering the factory, the two tanks came to a factory shed, the hatch opened, and the personnel got off one after another.
Tianyang looked around and found that there was electricity here and a lifting platform.
"The fifth area actually refers to the area below this factory."
While the 'Corpse Collectors' were making preparations, Lai Fu came over and stomped the ground with his feet.
"We found an underground building beneath this factory. It is very large, and no one has yet been able to explore its boundaries. But judging from the scope that has been explored, it is already the size of two city blocks."
"There are various warehouses, factories, laboratories, dormitories, and activity areas down there. We found a lot of valuable things in there, especially in those warehouses."
"This is also the charm of the Fifth District. Even though people know it is dangerous, there are still many people willing to take the risk down there."
Lai Fu licked his lips in his helmet. "However, in addition to a large number of zombies, there are also many evolved species. Those things are extremely dangerous, and some are very strange. In short, it is not a good place."
On the lifting platform, Lin Jun waved his hand, indicating that it was time to go down.
Tianyang stood on the lifting platform and heard the sound of the machine starting up. Then the warning lights on the surrounding fences began to flash. With a sudden jolt under their feet, they began to go underground.
Searchlights are installed around the lifting platform, illuminating the area around the lifting platform 24 hours a day.
Tianyang came to the edge of the platform and looked down, and found that this lifting platform should have been added by the gold diggers later, because the metal roof below was obviously violently blown open, forming a gap for the lifting platform to pass through.
And on the roof of the metal shed, there is a spacious underground space. Within the range of the searchlight alone, Tianyang can see various extremely complicated pipes and metal cylinders supporting the underground space.
When the lift platform vibrated again, they had arrived at Area 5, the real Area 5.
Looking around, the surrounding area should be a public activity area. There are fountains that no longer spray water, flower beds that can no longer grow flowers and plants, lawns that have long been without vegetation, and rusty outdoor fitness equipment.
Tianyang walked out of the lift platform and took out the shortwave communicator. He needed to confirm the situation of Lao Fan and his men. If those men were already dead, he would not waste his energy and would just leave the team and find a corner where no one was and open the door to go back.
After a burst of noise from the communicator, someone shouted, "Hu Yan, is that you? Didn't I tell you to go back and leave us alone? Why are you back again?"
This is Lao Fan's voice. It sounds strong and powerful, and it seems that he has not yet been favored by the god of death.
