The dark apocalypse has ended, and the wasteland era has begun. Countless mutated creatures and strange polluted zones are devouring human settlements.
Yun Zhao, who recently awakened her abi...
Did you get Chapter 183?
After calming down, the nine people began to observe their surroundings.
There were shops on both sides of the street, and they were currently on the second floor above one of the shops.
The house has two bedrooms and one living room. The furniture is arranged normally, and the floor is very clean.
The room was completely empty.
People speculated that the original owner might have opened the second-floor window and jumped out, joining the ranks of those committing suicide outside.
Why did they commit suicide?
Li Guo dared not look at the bloody and gruesome scene outside, and whispered, "Isn't it good to be alive?"
The world outside is so difficult, yet all of humanity is still struggling desperately to survive.
Never give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope.
Is there something more to this story?
Xu Pengcheng recalled the first person who rushed out earlier, shouting, "I got it! I got it!"
What did he draw?
What led him to willingly face death?
Upon hearing this, Ge Bo got goosebumps all over. "Could it be some kind of cult pulling the strings?"
"Whatever it was, that's all in the past. Let's figure out how to find the key to get out first."
Liu Hong stopped looking at the outside world, went into the bedroom, found a backpack in the closet, and packed everything usable in the room into it.
The nine men entered alone, and some of them didn't even have weapons.
The food, drinks, and even ammunition were all in the van.
Liu Hong was experienced, and the others came over to help when they heard this, and they searched the entire house.
They soon discovered a computer in the study opposite the bedroom, its screen flashing with lights.
Meanwhile, Liu Hong, who had just rushed into the kitchen, also noticed something unusual after opening the refrigerator.
There's electricity?!
The group of people looked shocked.
Ge Bo was confused. "Why is there electricity?"
Liu Hong was also unaware that the flow of time in the contaminated area was different from that outside. Although she was more experienced than others, she had only been to the contaminated area once.
She really didn't want to recall what happened inside.
Liu Hong emphasized again: "Finding the key is the most important thing."
As long as they have the key, they can get out.
She was stuffing food from the refrigerator into her backpack when she suddenly felt a chill down her spine, as if something was watching her.
Liu Hong suddenly turned around.
The kitchen window has no curtains.
Through the glass, she saw two 'people' standing on the balcony of the house next door, waving at her.

Team Zero observed the scenes unfolding on the street.
The desolate street is lined with old-fashioned residential areas, their outer walls bearing the marks of time and cracks left by battles.
A strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air.
Corpses lay scattered on the ground in the street, in all sorts of ways.
The scene was like a living hell.
The sentries had an incredibly keen sense of smell; the stench hit them so quickly that everyone instinctively held their breath.
Xie Tu stood in front of Yun Zhao, preventing her from seeing those horrific and bloody scenes.
"Duan Xi, confirm the time and location, and find the whereabouts of Jiang Mu's squad and the nine sentries."
"receive!"
Just as the peregrine falcon appeared, two or three more people—two men and one woman—ran out of the residential area diagonally opposite, carrying kitchen knives and laughing as they rushed into the street to their deaths.
"Great! I got it!"
"Finally, I don't have to live like a rat anymore, hahaha..."
Yun Zhao rallied his spirits and acted decisively.
A bluish-green fluorescence flashed and surged towards the three 'people,' quickly subduing them and simultaneously forming a barrier to block the attack from the mutant that appeared out of nowhere.
After their attacks were blocked by Yun Zhao's barrier, the two mutants disappeared again.
It was as if it had never existed.
Everyone became instantly on high alert upon seeing the mutated creature that could turn invisible.
"What kind of aberration is this?"
The rabbit immediately summoned her spiritual form, raised her sniper rifle, and became extremely alert. "How can she become invisible?!"
Despite her keen observation skills, she didn't notice any monsters on the street.
The situation is clearly very strange.
People committing suicide one after another, an invisible mutant...
"It doesn't seem like invisibility."
Staring at the spot where the monster disappeared, Song Liang calmly said, "It seems to be in a different dimensional space."
"They can briefly cross the barriers of space, appear in our sight, attack, and then quickly retreat back to their own alien world."
This ability exceeds human understanding of aberrations.
The members of Team Zero remained relatively calm.
He just became increasingly wary as he looked around the street.
Xie Tu remained silent, still standing in front of Yun Zhao, his sharp gaze fixed on the towering wall that seemed to reach into the clouds in the distance.
Those gray walls were hidden in the fog, almost blending into the gray sky, and were not easy to spot if you didn't look closely.
This is clearly a survivor base.
Like Dawn Base, the humans living here did not choose to hide underground, but instead built towering walls for defense.
"Don't use your abilities until you've recovered your mental strength," Xie Tu whispered to her as he glanced at the three people on the street who were being controlled by mental threads.
The whole street reeked of the smell of rotting corpses.
Yun Zhao couldn't hold his breath for long, so he could only cover his mouth and nose and listlessly raise his hand to form a barrier around him. "I don't want to use it either, but look... everyone is about to be suffocated by the fumes."
"Moreover, the people here are strange; everyone seems to be happily going out to die."
The three people from earlier seemed to be able to see them.
When the woman rushed out, she clearly glanced in their direction.
Perhaps we can get some clues out of these 'people'.
Xie Tu sighed helplessly; she was right.
The most urgent task is to find out the basic information about this place and find out who else has come in.
The armored vehicle was nowhere to be seen.
Team Zero came in fully prepared, their backpacks were stuffed with supplies, so there was no immediate impact.
"Let's get out of here first."
The peregrine falcon has already flown out to gather information and will find Duan Xi based on his location.
The group walked through the streets littered with corpses toward the three people who were frozen in place.
Everyone held their weapons and stood vigilantly around, wary of unseen mutant attacks.
After Yun Zhao created the barrier, it blocked out part of the stench from the street.
As she walked, she inevitably saw some corpses on the ground.
Many of the corpses were mutilated, with some limbs cruelly torn apart, exposing pale bones and dark red muscle tissue.
Blood was everywhere on the ground.
Yun Zhao had never seen such a bloody and terrifying scene before, and unconsciously pursed his lips.
She brought the three men under control and they returned to their respective residences.
Team Zero followed behind, moving along.
During this time, people kept rushing into the streets from nearby residences, shouting and cheering as they went to their deaths.
These 'people' can see them, but seem unable to see the suddenly appearing mutants.
They let the monsters howl and pounce, tearing and devouring their own kind.
The surrounding crowd did not react at all.
That's not all.
The first few groups of people who came out saw the Zero Team walking outside and seemed to regard them as fellow suicides.
Did you guys get one too?
The man carrying a cleaver smiled and spoke to them, "I'm so lucky, I waited a whole year to get a spot..."
