Chen Bufan and Jiang Tong were both in a terrible mood. Just two days ago, led by Zhu Lili, they came to the rusty iron gate with great anticipation.
Originally, he was full of joy thinking that there would be interesting and surprising things hidden behind the door, but when he actually stepped in, what he saw disappointed him greatly.
This is actually just a small scientific research base that has long been abandoned! The cold buildings, broken equipment, and the decaying smell in the air all tell of its former glory and current desolation.
Those terrifying brain-eating worms with a certain degree of intelligence were developed here.
Inside the base, they carefully explored every corner and eventually found some abandoned scientific research materials scattered on the ground, covered with traces of time and dust.
In addition, there are many culture tanks placed in a haphazard manner. Some of the culture tanks are empty, while others still contain the corpses of mutant creatures that have not been successfully cultured.
The entire base looked like it had suffered a terrible disaster, and the rampant mutant creatures had left it in ruins.
The steel walls of the laboratory were covered with shocking claw marks, like a horrifying painting.
Many staff members in white coats fell to the ground. Their bodies had been rotted beyond recognition, with bones exposed in many places and a thick layer of dust covering the surface.
It was obvious that the place had been abandoned for a long time.
In response to this, Chen Bufan raised his middle finger towards the wall covered with huge claw marks. He deserved it. Studying those useless things has now backfired on him, right?
It is very likely that those brain-eating worms escaped from here and launched a fatal attack on the outpost along the passage through which the mutated eels drilled out.
Although this expedition did not yield much substantial results, at least one thing is certain: what Zhu Lili said about someone conducting extensive research on biological and biochemical weapons was not false.
Moreover, it also added some good materials to Chen Bufan's boring life.
After they hurriedly left the abandoned laboratory, they plunged into the dim and long corridor.
In countless passages, various scenes followed one after another—groups of zombies controlled by brain-eating worms staggered around in the passages, and those twisted and grotesque zombies jumped out from the corners from time to time, attacking them with their fangs and claws.
For the two people who viewed this as a thrilling game, all this seemed to be just a small episode that increased the difficulty.
They were armed with shotguns and rifles, working in perfect harmony with each other, and every shot hit the target accurately, knocking down these terrifying enemies to the ground one by one.
Although they didn't gain much, the two of them had a lot of fun playing it. After all, it was a live-action version of Resident Evil.
In this way, they continued to move forward along the intricate passages, which seemed endless and the countless forks in the road were dizzying.
Sometimes, just after turning a corner, you will find several forks in the road in front of you. It is like a huge maze.
Moreover, more than 90% of the passages were dead ends, which forced Chen Bufan and Jiang Tong to go back and forth again and again to find a way out. After repeated efforts like this, the two were already exhausted.
Fortunately, Jiang Tong's eyes had awakened the ability of perspective last time. Although he couldn't see too far, it played a big role and helped him avoid many detours.
After an unknown amount of time and difficult climbing, they finally found an exit in the dust.
The mutated eel was really as annoying as Zhu Lili described, and it made a mess of the underground.
The two people who had finally seen the light of day were now covered in dust and looked in a miserable state.
"Finally out! Where is this place?"
Jiang Tong rubbed her sore waist and turned her head to look around.
Her eyes swept across the empty and lonely environment around her, and all she saw was a desolate and bleak scene. It was obvious that this was a remote wilderness with few people.
Chen Bufan on the side seemed much calmer: "Don't worry about it, let's find a comfortable place to rest and get something to eat. We have been down here for so long that we can't eat properly."
After saying that, he subconsciously touched his stomach.
The tunnel was filled with a strong, pungent smell of mucus, which made people lose their appetite just by smelling it. Thanks to their strong physical fitness, the two men had not eaten a grain of rice for almost two days, but they did not feel very hungry at the moment.
Chen Bufan used the cleaning technique on the two people, and the two people who were as dirty as cats became clean in an instant.
Although she had seen it many times, Jiang Tong was still very curious and looked carefully at the clothes she was wearing.
It was late at night, and it was pitch black all around, with no buildings to serve as reference points.
Chen Bufan frowned slightly. This was not a solution, so he could only take out a tablet computer from the space.
Chen Bufan tapped the screen lightly, woke up the device, and quickly opened the real-time map application, hoping to find a place to rest nearby.
Jiang Tong, who was standing by, noticed Chen Bufan's actions and came closer out of curiosity to find out what was going on.
At first, she thought Chen Bufan was secretly playing some interesting game.
However, when Jiang Tong saw clearly what was displayed on the tablet computer, her face turned red with shame.
It turned out to be a real-time map!
What surprised her even more was that through this magical map, she clearly saw herself and Chen Bufan standing in the center of the screen, and their postures were exactly the same as their current state.
Not only that, as Chen Bufan zoomed and dragged his fingers, the surrounding environment was also in full view.
Jiang Tong recalled the scene when she proudly took out the paper map and showed it to Chen Bufan. She was very happy at that time and felt that it was amazing that she had a detailed and valuable map.
She remembered that Chen Bufan was laughing at the side at that time.
Now it seems that Chen Bufan was making fun of her at that time!
Thinking of this, Jiang Tong gave Chen Bufan a fierce look.
Chen Bufan seemed to notice Jiang Tong's gaze, and suddenly turned to look at her, raised his eyebrows mischievously, and a slightly playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Jiang Tong rolled his eyes at him again and snorted, "Hmph, you're awesome, okay?"
Chen Bufan, however, looked very proud and responded without any modesty: "That's right, that's the fact."
"Let's go. There is a village about ten miles ahead. Let's go there and find a house to rest."
"it is good."
