Jiang Wenxi felt a chill on her back. This was no longer a monster, it had risen to the level of weird.
"Host, you misunderstood. According to the test, the soil is stained with blood, not bones."
"How can you tell someone is dead based on just a little blood stain?"
"Host, look, this entire area is covered with blood. No one can survive this amount of bleeding."
Jiang Wenxi saw that the area where the system pop-up screen appeared was indeed quite large, and it was indeed impossible to survive in such a large area.
Jiang Wenxi collected the things and took them back, maybe she could use them as evidence someday.
"Xiaoran, it's getting more and more dangerous in there, don't run around."
The two continued to move forward, and without exception, there were more and more things on the ground, except for human bodies.
Not to mention a corpse, there wasn't even a bone.
Jiang Wenxi bent down to pick up the two armbands, and Gu Ran found a military dagger wrapped in tree roots.
"The host is not from this base."
"Yeah," Jiang Wenxi looked at the logo above. It should be sent by the Southwest Headquarters.
Regardless of rescue or investigation, these people were unable to escape alive.
She needed to go to the Southwest Headquarters to find out when the other party would send someone to arrive.
"Host, the rescue area should be 2 kilometers southwest. Perhaps there are more clues there."
The system scanned a relatively open area.
Jiang Wenxi and Gu Ran moved forward all the way, not caring about whether the noise was loud or not. It would be best if they could attract something. The two of them shuttled through the weeds.
The scattered objects on the ground and the collapsed walls show that the situation at that time was indeed tragic.
"Boss, look."
A building with wire-wrapped walls and bullet casings scattered around.
“There are no plants in this place.”
"Host, some treatment has been done here. There is some suppressive powder."
Jiang Wenxi had already seen the grayish-white object on the iron sheet and stepped forward to check: "Is this the system?"
"Yes, host."
Jiang Wenxi took out a glass bottle, carefully scraped the powder into it, and went back to study it.
The heavy iron gate was bumpy and uneven, and it must have been forced open by force.
The blood splattered on the wall, various claw marks, and signs of destruction tell of the tragedy that happened at that time.
The two of them searched separately, but there was still no one in the huge rescue area except for broken clothes and household items.
"Let's go, this place is no longer valuable."
Regardless of whether the black snake came or not, this place has become a ruin. As for whether those people are dead or alive, only the fusion monster that attacked them knows.
Gu Ran was bored and used a dagger to clear the vines and weeds on the road.
"Xiaoran, let's go fight monsters later."
"good!"
Jiang Wenxi wanted to see how powerful the fusion monster was, so this place would serve as their trial ground.
“Swish!”
The two of them stopped at the same time. This time, Jiang Wenxi also saw it, as if something was passing by.
It was impossible to chase them because they were moving too fast. They also didn't know the other party's purpose. Judging from the direction, they should be running out of the base.
"System, are you sure you didn't capture any living creatures?"
"Host, really not."
Jiang Wenxi stood there and thought for a while: "System, scan the surroundings and find out which places you cannot penetrate."
If you can avoid system scanning, then do the opposite.
The system quickly gave the answer: "Host, there is indeed a place that I cannot scan inside."
The black area on Jiang Wenxi's Android system panel is about 30 kilometers away from the base. It will not be discovered by just scanning for living things.
It is so completely blocked that not only living things but even plants cannot sense it.
“Xiaoran, we are going to a dangerous place later.”
Gu Ran nodded and began to check the weapons on his body. Jiang Wenxi took out two fire and lightning beads and said, "Don't use them unless it's absolutely necessary."
Jiang Wenxi pulled Gu Ran to the edge of the black area. Before entering, they felt the surroundings were gloomy and chilly.
Gu Ran drew out the dagger and slowly walked forward, with Jiang Wenxi following closely behind.
Although there were plants, it gave people a desolate feeling. The two walked carefully for hundreds of meters and clearly felt that there were eyes watching them, but they could not locate them.
"Host, the things inside are very cunning. There is obscuring material that I cannot scan."
"System, keep a close eye on the surroundings."
A gust of wind blew, and something jumped out from the shadows. The two separated to avoid it.
The golden mane fluttered, and Gu Ran was startled: "Big lion?"
There was no way to rely on the system at this moment, so Jiang Wenxi could only guess based on the appearance: "Maybe!"
There are long stitches on its body, which means it is definitely not an ordinary lion.
The lion growled, kicked its legs, turned its head and pounced towards Gu Ran. Gu Ran took the lead in using the knife. The lion identified the target and swung its sharp claws at Gu Ran.
Jiang Wenxi aimed at the lion's back and shouted, "Bang!"
The lion was hit, roared, and smashed its claws at Gu Ran, causing Gu Ran's wrist to go numb.
"Boss, it's very strong."
The lion was injured and couldn't stabilize its body after landing. It fell down, turned around and got up, sweeping out its strong tail with the sound of wind.
Jiang Wenxi felt a gust of wind brushing across her cheek. The intensification was different. Gu Ran was close to her, and the moment the lion's tail swept over, she rolled back a few steps.
They had plenty of time to deal with one, and they wanted to test their skills.
He bounced up from the ground, pulled out the dagger behind him, rolled close to the lion, and stabbed the lion orc in the abdomen.
The lion roared in pain, its pupils dilated and darkened, and it slapped Gu Ran with one claw. Gu Ran rolled sideways to avoid the lion's attack.
Jiang Wenxi swung his Tang sword and cut off the lion's claws with one stroke. Gu Ran inserted his dagger into the lion's neck and exerted so much force that half of the lion's head fell off.
The lion fell to the ground with a bang. Gu Ran pulled out his dagger and blood splattered all over his body.
"Host, this lion is a native lion and has just been transformed."
Jiang Wenxi thought about it and decided to throw the corpse into the space and bring it back to Sister Wanwan to check what had been changed.
The two did not retreat and continued to walk inside.
The further you go in, the more fresh blood you find on the road, and occasionally some animal hair.
“There seems to be a house over there.”
Gu Ran looked at the white roof in the distance. Jiang Wenxi checked the map and said, "It should be a monitoring point or something like that."
Few people would choose such a remote place, and the area is also large, so it is even less likely that it would be an ordinary family.
The two approached slowly, and encountered some animals on the way, but they did not attack them but ran away instead.
There were not only a lot of blood stains at the gate, but also some unclear substances.
"Host, like some mucus or the blood of a mutant animal."
"Boss, are you coming in?"
Jiang Wenxi looked at the closed door and nodded slightly. When they pushed the door open, they instantly smelled a pungent stench.
The room was dimly lit and the windows were covered with thick paper.
