Lu Sheng glanced at his watch; it was already around six o'clock in the evening.
After entering the Eternal Night Era, many people gradually lost their sense of time because they could not perceive changes in outdoor brightness, and their daily routines became very chaotic.
However, once you lose control of your time, many of the body's indicators and functions will be affected to varying degrees, the most obvious being irritability.
They had been on the two underground levels for more than two hours, and a tense and irritable atmosphere was gradually spreading in the group, with many people showing signs of impatience.
If the hidden dangers are not resolved as soon as possible, the team itself will run into problems; they must act quickly.
"Zhuzhu, use the insects to check again, where is the lair of those little monsters?"
Chen Ziqiu was not discouraged by Lu Sheng's initial setback; instead, he was eager to use this opportunity to get closer to Lu Sheng.
He would try to stick close to Lu Sheng whenever he had a chance, but he was always pushed away by Zhuangzhuang, the head of Teacher Xu's fan club, and Rocket.
He was young, handsome, and had a high level of superpowers. The female team members at the Xusheng Base all wanted to become Mrs. Chen, both openly and secretly. Now that they saw Chen Ziqiu trying to get close to Lu Sheng, Zhu Zhu's face fell.
"I was just frightened by some people, and my mind was stimulated, so I can't use my superpowers for a while."
Zhuzhu glanced at Lu Sheng and said sourly.
The number of sensory ability users is extremely small, so small that even if you combine the K3 base and the Xusheng base, you can't find a single one.
Many search-related missions at the Xusheng Base rely on Zhuzhu's insects, which is why she was able to infiltrate Chen Ziqiu's team despite being just an insect master.
She originally thought she could use her special ability to slightly intimidate Lu Sheng, at least to get this woman to apologize to her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Sheng ignored it and directly tossed a bag of cat treats to the pig cat next to him, saying, "Find it as soon as possible, don't waste time."
With the cat treat as a reward, Zhuangzhuang was so eager to raise his little antenna to the sky that he licked the treat passionately on the spot and mumbled, "Go downstairs, there are some energy fluctuations in the northeast direction of the third basement level."
With the information provided by Zhuangzhuang, Lu Sheng and his group immediately headed towards the direction of the energy wave.
Chen Ziqiu glanced at Zhuzhu with a complicated expression, then followed Lu Sheng's group without saying a word.
"It's normal for people to feel unwell for a while after being frightened!"
Zhu Zhu tried to explain herself guiltily, but the others in the group were too lazy to pay attention to her, so she could only follow behind dejectedly.
After entering the third basement level, the energy fluctuations became increasingly noticeable.
Guided by Zhuangzhuang, Lu Sheng and his group stopped in front of a heavy electronic door.
"Thump!"
Just as Zhang Xiaojuan was about to go forward to check, a dull thud suddenly slammed into the door, shaking the entire doorway twice.
A small zombie wrapped in a white coat lunged forward and crashed headfirst into the bulletproof glass of the door.
Its expression was ferocious, its sharp teeth fiercely gnawing at the bulletproof glass, its facial features pressed tightly against the glass, twisted and deformed.
As it moved, some disgusting liquid of unknown color left dirty streaks on the glass.
Everyone outside the door immediately became alert.
Chen Ziqiu immediately pulled out a gun specifically designed for hunting zombies.
The little monster seemed quite pleased with the wary expressions on everyone's faces, and it chuckled through the glass, its already ugly features becoming even more terrifying.
"This is the base's research laboratory. How did these monsters get in?" Xin Qiao asked, puzzled.
"This electronic door was specially manufactured to protect research results. It can only be opened by the institute director's fingerprint and iris dual unlocking. If the verification fails three times, it will initiate a self-destruct program."
"It's no use finding the place, we can't even get in." A frustrated player in the K3 team complained.
Xin Qiao looked worried and turned to go find someone, "Don't move, I'll go find the director to open the door."
Lu Sheng attached the decoder to the door lock and shook it gently.
Before Xinqiao could finish speaking, the door clicked open and unlocked successfully.
When Xin Qiao looked up, the little zombie that had been clinging to the door had already been slashed to pieces by Lu Sheng.
Xin Qiao: "..."
For a moment, she was completely bewildered.
How could the K3 base's supposedly formidable security system be breached right under her nose in a second?
The key point is that she didn't even see what happened before the door opened??
Xinqiao had no time to think it through and could only passively follow Lu Sheng closely.
After dealing with the small zombie at the door, Lu Sheng didn't move, calmly examining the huge laboratory in front of him.
The laboratory was dark, with no lights and you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
Chen Ziqiu's man held up a flashlight and scanned the laboratory blankly, only able to see a corner of the room from where the light source touched.
The area here is very large, with neatly arranged workbenches and various instruments everywhere.
The vast space was eerily quiet.
In this dark space, Lu Sheng sensed a faint, almost imperceptible, spying.
Someone is secretly watching them.
As her ability level increased, her mental power also underwent a qualitative change. Although she was not a psychic, she could vaguely sense high-risk zombies or potential dangers nearby.
After the door opened, a nerve in her temple suddenly twitched twice for no apparent reason.
A strange sense of crisis swept over us.
Zhuangzhuang's big tail hooked around Lu Sheng's calf and made a weak squeaking sound, "The energy is very chaotic, I can't judge it."
"He wasn't the loudest one just now, but now he's just standing there at the door, not moving."
