Chapter 162: Crazy Mutant Beast
Now, Xu Xinxin really has no interest in the underground subway passage.
This is not the end yet.
The group of bats ran out, and a white smoke similar to the smell of insect repellent floated on the ground. Then, some cockroaches and various insects emerged from the ground again.
After various noises were heard one after another, the underground began to return to calm.
Everyone waited on the ground for a while, and soon the team that went to explore underground returned to the ground.
Xu Xinxin heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone had returned safely, without missing a single one.
The team was reporting their work to Li Yuheng, and Xu Xinxin was listening nearby.
According to their previous exploration, they found traces of people living underground. However, they couldn't tell which direction they left in.
They couldn't see it, but they had just gone underground to record audio and video, and also collected some remaining energy fluctuations.
Various experts on the ground, as well as the psychic, analyzed the newly collected information and, based on the underground subway map, re-determined the direction.
After a brief rest, the group set off again in a new direction.
......
Deep in the wilderness, in an abandoned gymnasium.
A large group of people were crowded into the gymnasium, sitting either on worn-out chairs or on crooked straw mats. The atmosphere was somewhat depressing.
There were a lot of people in the gymnasium, but everyone was very quiet.
Some people were quietly weaving straw sandals with straw, some were weaving bamboo baskets with bamboo strips, and some were using their supernatural powers to make green plants grow in the corner.
However, most people here just huddled together quietly, not daring to make any loud noise.
On the second floor, in a small room, Gu Zhicheng and Lin Xuezhi were tinkering with a broken energy diffuser.
"Why is it that this thing doesn't work after just one use?"
As Gu Zhicheng was fiddling with it, he said to his lover beside him, "This thing is of really poor quality."
Lin Xuezhi next to him said, "The energy fluctuations in the wilderness are complex and the equipment is disturbed. It's great to be able to use it once."
The two people continued to study the instrument as they talked, but they were unable to establish new contact with the outside world.
At this time, a man pushed open the door, walked in, and whispered: "Brother Gu, Sister Xuezhi, we don't have much food left, do we need to go out hunting again?"
Although there are wood-related mutants here who can grow some plants for everyone to eat, this is limited after all.
There are so many people here that it is not enough to rely solely on the psychics to produce food, so everyone will regularly form teams to hunt nearby, or look for edible plants and fruits.
In the wilderness, many animals and plants will become very large after mutation. Although they don’t taste very good, they can fill people up.
Before, everyone found a mutant peach tree. The mutant peaches on it were half a person's height each, and it took a space-based psychic to carry them back and forth several times.
It is these mutated foods that are large enough to feed thousands of people here.
However, the mutant beasts outside have become more and more ferocious recently, and every time they go out, the amount of food they can find is getting less and less.
When Gu Zhicheng heard the news, his already frowned face furrowed even more.
Lin Xuezhi next to him said, "I remember there are some mutant pumpkins nearby... How about we eat these first?"
When Gu Zhicheng mentioned this mutant pumpkin, his face turned bitter.
What does it mean if food can grow intact in a dangerous wilderness?
This means that this plant is of a very high level and cannot be obtained by other creatures.
In addition to this, there is another situation, that is, this food is particularly "unpalatable".
When he thought of that pumpkin and the "wonderful" taste brought by the violent energy fluctuations, Gu Zhicheng felt like vomiting.
But now everyone has no choice. If you choose again, you won’t even be able to eat this.
"Then let's just eat this for now. If we can't get in touch with the outside world again after a few days, we can go hunting again." Gu Zhicheng said.
"Okay, I'll go down and arrange it."
The visitor left quickly.
Gu Zhicheng and Lin Xuezhi looked at this "broken" instrument and couldn't help feeling worried again.
No one knows when the outside world will be able to contact them again and take them away from here.
During this period, I don’t know whether their children can live in harmony at home.
I hope they can leave safely this time.
Just as Gu Zhicheng was sighing, a scream suddenly came from downstairs.
After the scream, there was another noise downstairs, followed by the sound of a group of people climbing the stairs.
Soon, the door of this room was pushed open again, and a man walked in with a little girl in his arms.
"Brother, this little girl was bitten by a mutant mosquito and seems to be poisoned. Come and have a look."
There are crazy mutant beasts everywhere around here, and even ordinary mosquitoes have become highly poisonous after mutation.
Even if everyone is very vigilant and doesn't let poisonous creatures get close to here, there will always be some that slip through the net.
The antidote that Gu Zhicheng and his team had brought with them, even after diluting it with water, was slowly used up over such a long period of time.
Lin Xuezhi looked at the little girl with her lips tightly closed, and thought of her two daughters at home. She couldn't help but take out the last half bottle of antidote and drip a little bit of it on her.
After drinking the antidote, the little girl's complexion improved noticeably, so Lin Xuezhi stopped feeding her the medicine.
But this won't work. There are too many people here, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, so there are more and more mosquitoes nearby.
Today a little girl was bitten by a mutated poisonous mosquito, and tomorrow a second person will be bitten.
But they really don't have much antidote left...
Inside the room, everyone took a look at the only remaining antidote, and the atmosphere fell into depression again.
......
The other side of the wilderness.
Xu Xinxin and Xia Runlin sat on the back of the same large bird and beast, and also discussed the mutated poisonous mosquitoes.
Xia Runlin said, "Xinxin, put on these mosquito repellent incense packs. There are many poisonous insects in the wilderness. Wearing these will help."
The sachet that Xia Runlin brought was prepared by the Superpower Army for everyone. It was effective, but the smell was not very pleasant.
As soon as Xu Xinxin took the mosquito repellent incense bag, she couldn't help but sneeze several times in succession.
"Achoo, why does this thing smell so strong?"
She sniffed, took the mosquito repellent bag and hung it next to her shirt.
Xu Xinxin rubbed her nose with her hand again, and then heard Xia Runlin say: "The stronger the smell, the better the effect. In the wilderness, if there is a bite from some poisonous mosquitoes, if there is not enough antidote, within two days, it will kill you."
