Ji Xian: "The road is dark and the light is dim..."
Suddenly, a ball of fire lit up before their eyes—a half-meter-high flame shot up from Gu Wan's palm, illuminating the area around the three of them...
Gu Wan: "Brother Ji Xian, this brightness, do you think it's okay?"
"Just run!" He Zhuo grabbed Ji Xian and dragged him forward.
Ji Xian staggered and almost bit the gravel on the ground.
"Fuck! Slow down! Slow down!" Ji Xian shouted as he ran, "My shoes are about to fall off!"
Gu Wan chased after him, holding a flame, and said to He Zhuo: "I can't slow down at all..."
......
The situation for Gu Qi and the other two was even more difficult. Without Gu Wan's fire-related abilities, they could only grope their way forward by slowly adapting to their night vision abilities.
Darkness enveloped them like a thick curtain, and the air was filled with the smell of smoke and a faint odor of decay.
Every step the three of them took on the gravel made a slight crunching sound, which made people's heart beat faster.
The unusual movements around me are becoming more and more frequent.
There were low, coughing sounds coming from the ground, as if something was crawling out from the cracks in the concrete.
From time to time, there is a hoarse sound not far away...
The visibility range was extremely low, and the three people could only see a small area under their feet.
Originally, Chi Yi led the way, Gu Qi was the rear guard, and Luo Xingyou was in the middle of the formation, but now the three of them were moving forward with their backs to each other.
The three of them remained on high alert, and every slight sound made their nerves tense.
Gu Qi's eyes swept over the collapsed road surface around him, only gravel and broken steel bars were scattered everywhere.
He paused. "There are no stars, no moon, and I can't even determine my approximate direction."
Chi Yi was silent for a moment, as if remembering something, and took out a small object from the side pocket of his backpack.
"Compass..." Gu Qi's eyes lit up: "Brother Chi, where did this come from?"
Chi Yi: "I asked Miss Lu for it a long time ago."
Gu Qi: "Brother Chi, it still has to be you, rigorous."
Chi Yi placed the compass on his palm. After a moment, he pointed to the left front side: "This...wait..."
The three people's gazes were instantly fixed on the darkness ahead.
There, dozens of red lights lit up, one row, two rows... It was as if someone had hung hell lanterns in front of the three people.
Luo Xingyou's palms shone with golden light, and she lowered her voice to a very low voice: "This height doesn't look like a zombie..."
Chi Yi's vines emerged from his palm: "It should be a mutant animal..."
Luo Xingyou stared at the red dots, assessing their distance and threat. "Close to the ground, could they be rats?"
Gu Qi slowly took a step back: "There's no one behind us for now, let's retreat slowly..."
The three of them saw the nearest red eyeball suddenly make a "click" sound, followed by the sound of slippery flesh rubbing against each other, and a huge figure rose into the air.
Chi Yi reacted extremely quickly. He thrust his hands forward and a wooden vine shot out, spreading into a net in the air. "It's a frog!"
The thorns on the vines pierced the frog's skin fiercely, and sticky body fluids spurted out, emitting a pungent and foul smell.
