The sound came from the other side of the wall, and because there was a wall in between, it didn't sound real.
Xu Xin plucked up the courage to walk to the wall and listened carefully.
The battle suit has the function of transmitting waves, and the ability to hear subtle sounds will be enhanced.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp."
The sound was like that of a mouse, but much sharper than that of a mouse.
Unknown creature?
Xu Xin's scalp felt numb.
In this abandoned underground research institute, are there other creatures that survived the explosion?
Recalling the details of the Absolute Soldiers Plan, she briefly considered retreating.
However, this was her first time to leave the vehicle and go out. If she just left the important clues uncollected, Xia Mu would laugh at her when she returned.
She took a deep breath, and her eyes in the battle suit flashed.
He raised his arm and fired a hand cannon in front of Zhao Ju's surprised gaze.
A big hole was suddenly blasted out in the wall, and the ground seemed to be shaking.
After a moment, the smoke dissipated.
Look inside through the big hole.
This is a small storage room with many wooden boxes stored on shelves.
The air was filled with a rotten smell mixed with a faint aroma of meat, which made Zhao Ju frown.
"Test it."
As soon as Xu Xin finished speaking, a subtle light wave appeared on the built-in display of the mecha suit.
The light waves swept up and down, and the shapes of all the creatures inside were marked out.
In the corner, there was a mouse-like creature hiding quietly.
The box was filled with densely packed centipedes, huddled together in a ball.
"vomit."
Seeing the model on the monitor, Xu Xin almost swallowed it in one gulp.
What she fears most is centipedes. She has no resistance to these multi-legged creatures.
At this time, there were six large wooden boxes on the shelf, and each box was filled with centipedes. A careful count showed that there were almost tens of thousands of them.
If someone accidentally releases the centipede, it will probably spread to the entire underground research institute in no time.
"Why would the underground research institute build a mezzanine here, and hide so many centipedes?"
Xu Xin suppressed the urge to vomit and began to think.
"Could it be related to refining the genetic compound?"
When she was in school, she had heard from her teacher that centipede is also a medicinal ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine. Although she didn't know what its specific effects were, when she thought of the underground research institute, she immediately had this idea.
Forget it, it looks like there’s nothing worth exploring, so let’s not go in and explore for now.
She thought so.
Zhao Ju couldn't see what was going on inside and was jumping up and down anxiously.
Just as he was about to rush in, Xu Xin grabbed his arm.
"Shh, don't act rashly, let's withdraw first."
After saying that, she shook her head at Zhao Ju and was about to drag Zhao Ju away.
But at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The mouse hiding in the corner was so frightened that it started running around in the small storage room.
Bang!
A wooden box was actually knocked over!
Crash.
Countless centipedes, as if awakening from a deep sleep, scattered across the ground like a tide.
Xu Xin and Zhao Ju's pupils kept shrinking as they watched the centipede crawl all over the storage room.
These centipedes are different from ordinary centipedes and have an extremely strong desire to attack.
It also seems to have undergone a genetic mutation, with two sharp fangs growing on its head, which can cut wherever it goes.
Even the steel container could not withstand the destruction of thousands of centipedes. It soon let out a wail and fell to the ground.
Suddenly, the rest of the wooden boxes were knocked open one by one.
The centipedes inside poured out like a tide.
The mouse didn't even utter a scream before the centipede tore it to pieces until not even a bone was left.
Especially in the last box, the centipede that crawled out was black all over, about one meter long, with twelve long legs covered with barbs, and two fangs flashing cold light.
It looks ferocious and terrifying.
"run!"
Xu Xin didn't say a word.
Now that she didn't faint from fright, she can be considered to have strong mental strength.
Zhao Ju didn't need Xu Xin's reminder. The moment he saw the mouse being submerged by the centipede tide, he had already activated the Jade Light Field and ran outside without looking back.
It’s not that she was afraid of centipedes, but the moment those black centipedes appeared, Xia Mu’s voice had already sounded in their hearts.
"Retreat! The creatures here have a combat power of over 150. They are not something you can contend with!"
Zhao Ju, who originally wanted to use the Nine Phoenix Bow to fire a shot at the centipede tide, quickly gave up the idea.
The two ran all the way back to the stairs relying on their memory.
When I looked back, I heard a crackling sound.
These centipedes were surprisingly fast and had actually caught up with them.
The two sides were less than fifty meters apart!
Xu Xin and the other person were frightened to death.
whoosh!
The Nine Phoenix Bow made a vibrating sound, and a jade-colored arrow shot out, slamming heavily into the centipede tide.
But the centipede tide only created a small hole, which was quickly filled by the centipedes behind.
There are so many centipedes that it is impossible to kill them all.
The two of them did not delay any longer and used various means to escape.
After activating the Jade Light Field, Zhao Ju was able to move at the speed of light and reached the rooftop in almost the blink of an eye.
Xu Xin was even more wild, and at this moment he didn't care about so many things.
