Everyone arrived, and the equipment was delivered. Zhou Yaning and the others began to put on their equipment. She asked Qian Xiaoling and Zheng Xin to wait outside, and she took the rest of the people in to see what was going on.
Lu Chengchuan took the protective suit and gas mask. The situation in the blood mist was unclear, so he had to put on the protective suit obediently.
Putting on protective gear and making sure it was okay they entered the blood mist.
After completing the preparations, he and Zhao Run took the lead. They stood in front of the blood mist, took a deep breath, and took a step forward together, entering the blood mist together.
The moment he entered, the blood mist hit the lens of the gas mask, and Lu Chengchuan's world suddenly turned blood red. Apart from that, there was no special feeling.
Zhao Run raised his arm and made a forward motion, and the people behind him immediately stepped into the blood mist.
Everyone entered the blood mist. Lu Chengchuan and Zhao Run continued to lead the charge, with a large force of thirty people following behind them.
This is the lobby on the first floor of the building. As soon as they came in, dozens of monsters appeared in the lobby.
Among the dozens of monsters, some are beast-shaped and some are human-shaped. Regardless of their form, they are all more or less deformed.
Some monsters have an extra claw, some monsters have two heads, some monsters have several tails on their bodies, and some monsters don't even have a head.
All kinds of monsters appeared, and the soldiers of the special operations battalion almost couldn't help but open fire.
But soon the monster also saw them, and facing the uninvited guests, the monster howled and rushed towards them.
Before they could fire a shot, several monsters rushed towards them at high speed. Among the thirty or so people, only Lu Chengchuan reacted. He drew the long knife from his waist and chopped it on the monster's head quickly and powerfully.
【Kill the synthetic beast and gain 40 days of life.】
A synthetic beast, this was another monster he had never seen before. After killing one monster, Lu Chengchuan turned the blade and quickly chopped off the head of another monster.
After hacking two monsters to death in succession, the others came to their senses and immediately started shooting at the monsters.
The sound of gunfire instantly drowned out the howling of the monsters. Dozens of monsters rushed forward, half of them were killed on the spot, and the remaining half rushed to the front. The soldiers of the special operations battalion used their special powers to block them.
Dozens of synthetic beasts were also killed, and Lu Chengchuan gained more than two hundred days of life. After eliminating the monsters in the hall on the first floor, they divided into two teams to check the rooms on the first floor.
There was no one there, only blood mist, without even a trace of a human.
After the circle, they gathered at the elevator. Two of them went up and pressed the elevator button, but found no response, probably because the blood mist was malfunctioning and could not be used.
Unable to take the elevator, they went to the stairs and prepared to climb up one floor at a time.
This building has twenty-two floors, and the blood mist appeared out of nowhere. It is not known whether it was man-made or something else was causing the trouble. They came in to find out what happened and to see if there were any survivors.
On the second floor, they encountered a few more monsters. After dealing with them, they continued to look for survivors.
But after searching around, there were no living people on the second floor, not even dead people. They continued to go up to the third, fourth, and fifth floors, until they reached the ninth floor where they met a living person.
A woman dressed in business attire was hiding under a table, and she almost collapsed when the soldiers found her.
"Madam, madam! Don't be afraid, we are guards, not monsters!" The soldier grabbed the woman's shoulders and kept repeating this sentence.
After repeating this three times, the woman on the verge of collapse slowly calmed down.
"Guards? Are you here to save me?" The woman grabbed the soldier's arm tightly and refused to let go.
"Yes, we are here to rescue people, ma'am, do you feel uncomfortable?"
The woman was exposed in the blood mist. Judging from her current appearance, the blood mist should not be poisonous, otherwise an ordinary person would not be able to survive for so long.
"I'm not feeling uncomfortable. I want to leave here. I want to leave here. Please, take me away from here." The woman grabbed the soldier's hand and begged him bitterly.
"Where did the others go?"
"They were caught, caught by someone! Not people, but humans! So many people! So many monsters!" The woman said, suddenly becoming excited.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. There are no monsters here, and no one is here to catch you. Don't be afraid." Seeing that the woman was about to collapse again, Zhao Run had no choice but to go up and comfort her.
"Let's take a fifteen-minute break."
They climbed to the ninth floor in one breath and killed a bunch of monsters in the middle. Except for Lu Chengchuan, the remaining thirty or so people were tired. While there were no monsters here, they quickly rested and recovered their strength.
"There are thirteen floors above. Where are they hiding?"
"Check slowly. Unless they can fly out, they must be up there. I feel like something's wrong. Is there a signal here? Can you send a message outside?"
A group of mysterious people may also control monsters. Zhou Yaning wants to spread the news.
Zhao Run took out their communicator and wanted to send a message, but after pressing it for a long time, the communicator still couldn't connect to the signal. Zhao Run asked his subordinates to come and help, but after a few minutes, it still didn't work.
There was no signal at all, but this situation did not make them panic. They had already thought of this situation when they came in.
"Send two men back and take the woman with them. She's a burden if she stays here. Take her down and bring back the news. Ask Commander Wang to send reinforcements."
"Alright." Zhao Run glanced at the woman who had calmed down and said to the soldier she had captured, "You, and you, the two of you, take her down. Then report to the commander and request support from the main force."
Zhao Run selected two people to escort the person away. Now they could only send her out first while they continued to look for people here.
The soldier received the order to rest for a few minutes and then lead the others down. After the fifteen-minute rest period was over, Zhao Run turned around and gave the order to continue climbing up the stairs.
"She just said that the people here have been captured, and there are still many monsters. Is there anyone who can control the monsters?" Zhao Run asked as he walked up to the tenth floor.
The woman was emotional, but she still shared some useful information.
When the blood mist descended, someone came in and kidnapped the company employees in the building. The blood mist in the sky might be related to them, and those people should be upstairs now.
The tenth floor was very quiet. There were no monsters or survivors, only blood mist.
"That's probably possible. Two months ago, we didn't believe in monsters or superpowers."
As the old saying goes, there are many strange things in the world, but things like superpowers and monsters have never existed before. Now they are popping up in batches, so she doesn't find it strange no matter what happens.
In the room, books, papers, and tables were scattered in a mess, and there were claw marks on the wall.
"Nothing, go up to the tenth floor."
There was no one found, no monsters seen, and no corpses, so Zhao Run led them upstairs.
There was nothing on the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth floors. Everyone was very curious about what had happened on the upper floors.
Zhao Run arrived at the thirteenth floor with doubts in his heart and opened the door to go in.
With a chirp, something flew over. Lu Chengchuan reacted quickly and reached out to pull Zhao Run back.
