"Everyone, have a good rest after eating and recharge your energy. We can't let our guard down yet..." Liu Rui put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and said to everyone, then turned and left.
"Yes..." a group of people responded, and then fell silent, just concentrating on eating.
When several team leaders saw Liu Rui leaving, they also stood up and followed him away.
After Jack's group had been chased crazily by the Emei Mountain guys and then had to travel non-stop all night, everyone was already exhausted.
He wanted to stop and rest several times, but was afraid of being chased by those crazy mutant monkeys again. He insisted on continuing his journey intermittently for a whole day, and after confirming again that there were no mutant monkeys following him.
Everyone's hearts finally calmed down a little, and they stopped to set up camp and rest for a while, but they did not dare to let their guard down. Everyone was like a frightened bird, always paying attention to the movements around them, and would immediately flee again if something went wrong.
Jack looked at the group of people not far away. They all looked frightened and uneasy. His brows were unconsciously furrowed. He never expected that they would suffer such a big loss on this trip and end up in such a miserable state.
This thrilling encounter dealt an almost fatal blow to the team, which had been forced together and had little cohesion. At this time, everyone was either lying or sitting on their own.
Everyone was either resting with their eyes closed or treating their wounds, their faces showing signs of fatigue, indifference and dejection.
The air was heavy with silence. Apart from a few occasional whispered conversations and some moans, almost no one made a sound. The atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people feel suffocated and suffocated.
Jack couldn't help but think that the biggest variable that led to their failure this time was the mutant monkeys that suddenly appeared in the woods.
Thinking about the appearance of those guys and the series of abnormal situations before and after their appearance, my doubts grew more and more.
As he pondered, his gaze fell on a few people not far away. Then, he stood up and walked towards them. He had many questions in his mind that he couldn't figure out.
What exactly happened in the woods before? Why did those mutant monkeys appear? Why did all their team members lose contact after entering the woods again? What exactly happened inside?
There were also several psychics from Ors. At that time, no one was able to check the situation in the woods. It seemed that all their psychics had problems.
It was also because of this that they rashly confronted those mutant monkeys and were caught off guard and unable to respond, which resulted in the loss of soldiers and generals, and they ended up in their current state.
"Jack..." Alan saw the person coming over and subconsciously wanted to stand up. However, every movement would pull the wound on his body, and he couldn't help but groan in pain.
When the other people around saw Jack, they all stood up and looked at him, waiting for his instructions.
"Come with me..." Jack said to the group of people in front of him who were looking at him, and then turned and walked towards a secluded place not far away where a tent had already been set up.
"Yes..." After hearing Jack's words, the group looked at each other, then followed him, and Allen and several injured people were also carried up to follow.
Soon, a group of people entered the tent one after another, but after entering the tent, everyone fell silent.
Perhaps out of frustration or perhaps out of guilt, no one spoke first. For a moment, the atmosphere was dull and oppressive.
"Alan, what exactly happened to you in the woods? Where did those mutant monkeys come from? And what's the situation at the Dragon Country base?" Jack's sharp eyes swept over several people one after another.
In addition to Allen and his group, the others were captains who led their teams into the woods to provide support.
After hearing what Alan said, these people subconsciously lowered their heads, feeling guilty and not daring to look him in the eye.
"It's like this, we were about to rush into the Dragon Kingdom's base, but those monkeys suddenly rushed over..." Then, Alan recounted in detail what happened in the woods.
However, when talking about the situation of the support team behind, his gaze paused on several of the captains.
"Yeah..." Jack nodded after hearing what Alan said. Of course, he did not miss his meaningful gaze towards those people.
"If it weren't for those mutant monkeys, we might have completed the mission long ago..." Alan couldn't help but speak out angrily.
"I don't know where those guys came from, and why they are so powerful..." Brown said with fear on his face.
"Ors, what happened to you guys at that time?" Jack turned to look at Ors and asked.
"I don't know. This is the first time we've encountered such a situation. We can't see anything in the woods. I don't know if it's because of the appearance of those guys..." Ors said with a frown.
He and several other psychics who were traveling with him still haven't figured out the reason why their powers were abnormal at that time. In the end, they could only blame it on those guys.
"Look at the appearance of those guys. They are all tall and strong, with shiny fur. They look like they were carefully raised in captivity..." Brown frowned and spoke slowly.
"You said those guys were raised by the Dragon people? How is that possible? Absolutely impossible..." After hearing Brown's words, Allen subconsciously retorted, staring at him with a pair of scarlet eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.
. . . .
After hearing Brown's words, the other people in the tent all showed surprise on their faces. No one dared or wanted to believe such a guess.
Even though they had seen the appearance of those guys with their own eyes, they knew very well in their hearts that under the current environment, it was impossible for them to grow so well unless they were raised in captivity.
But the more they knew this, the more unreal it seemed, and they felt an inexplicable fear.
After all, if these guys were really raised by the Dragon people, it means that the Dragon people not only domesticated mutant animals, but also had enough supplies to raise these guys.
Moreover, whenever they thought that the group of guys might have been domesticated by the Dragon people, they felt their scalps tingling.
Because of the fierce fighting power of those mutant monkeys and their unknown ability to restrain psychic powers.
There is also the Dragon Country and the Dragon people who can tame these guys. Not to mention how much supplies are needed to raise these guys, what is more important is the ability to tame and control them.
Before this, all they knew about the mutant animals that were kept by people were mostly pets that people kept before the end of the world, or stray mutant dogs with gentle and friendly personalities.
