The forest was shrouded in poisonous fog, and the ground was littered with rat carcasses.
After the tense and exciting battle against the rats, the group found a pile of rocks to sit down and rest for a while.
The others found a less sharp rock to sit on and breathed a sigh of relief.
On the flattest rock, Chu Liyue sat with an elegant and domineering posture, while Xiao Wujie, who looked sickly and haggard, sat sideways on her lap, with her holding his waist, his face showing a frail and helpless expression.
The scene was beautiful yet difficult to describe...
Due to the impact of the air barrier, much of the toxic fog was dispersed, allowing everyone to briefly remove their gas masks and get some fresh air.
The two God's contacts were still in shock, staring at Xiao Wujie with shining eyes.
The woman's gaze, in particular, made Chu Liyue's eyebrows furrow slightly.
Looking at Xiao Wujie, who was sitting on her lap and taking small sips of water, Chu Liyue gently stroked his waist with her fingers, and her eyes darkened slightly as she looked at his glistening lips.
"Sweetie, I'm a little thirsty..."
Her deep, cold eyes stared directly at him, her voice flat.
Xiao Wujie, leaning against her, blinked his long eyelashes slightly. Without thinking, he tilted his head back, took a sip of water, wrapped his arms around her neck, and suddenly lowered his head, his moist, pale lips covering her delicate lips.
Between their words, the ambiguous sound of flowing water could be heard, along with Xiao Wujie's soft, fragmented voice.
"I'll help my sister Runrun..."
Lu Zhufeng and Leng Ruxue consciously lowered their heads and drew circles with their feet.
The two contacts blushed instantly. When their eyes met the cold light emanating from Chu Liyue's eyes, they quickly lowered their heads as if they had been electrocuted, their posture resembling that of bowing their heads in repentance and prayer.
After a while, their lips parted suddenly, and Xiao Wujie, slightly panting, buried his head in her neck, lightly touching her earlobe with the tip of his tongue and gently blowing on it.
"Sister, is it sweet?"
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Chu Liyue silently tightened her embrace around him, her fingers gently stroking his abs through his inner shirt, her cold gaze sweeping over the female contact without leaving a trace.
Her sweet baby is so adorable!
But the baby and his sweetness belong to her, and can only be given to her!
"Um... don't you guys feel like something's a little strange?"
Seeing out of the corner of his eye that the two seemed to have no intention of continuing, Lu Zhufeng raised his head and coughed dryly with a blank expression.
"Mr. Lu is right. We didn't find any trace of these strange rats on our previous visits. How come so many have appeared out of nowhere today?"
The elderly man among the contacts readily agreed.
With one arm around Xiao Wujie's shoulder and the other around his waist, Chu Liyue's fingers gently caressed his alluring collarbone.
His deep, cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a chilling voice:
"These rats have had their genes artificially modified and have been injected with large amounts of drugs to enhance their bodies. The pustules on their bodies are a sign that the drugs are too strong and they can't handle them."
"Therefore, they become extremely agitated, biting anyone they see, and are fearless in the face of death."
As soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of the people around her changed slightly, and Leng Ruxue took over the conversation on her own initiative.
"Does the boss mean that this was all done on purpose?"
Chu Liyue nodded slightly upon hearing this, her cold eyes sharp as she gazed into the distance, seemingly able to see through the thick fog to something others could not.
Her red lips parted slightly, her voice chilling:
“Someone is waiting for us ahead. These rats are just tools to exhaust our energy and resources. The more troublesome things are probably yet to come.”
The sound sent a chill down everyone's spine.
After resting for a while, Chu Liyue gently rubbed Xiao Wujie's lips with her fingers, her voice low and soft.
"Have you regained any strength? Can you still walk?"
Upon hearing this, the two contacts immediately looked at Xiao Wujie with tense expressions. After what had just happened, they understood that the person in front of them was a big shot who was pretending to be weak.
In this eerie place, his presence is crucial.
If he really can't walk anymore, they'll have to carry him there in shifts.
Xiao Wujie gently sat up from her embrace and nodded slightly under the gazes of the two contacts who looked at him like he was God.
After organizing their supplies and putting on their respirators and goggles again, the group set off again towards their destination without any delay.
After the recent incident, everyone became more cautious, standing closer together and moving forward carefully.
After traveling steadily for about half an hour, just as Xiao Wujie was starting to feel slightly out of breath, a blurry outline appeared ahead.
"This is it!"
The two messengers leading the way spoke in unison.
After taking a few quick steps forward, the abandoned target base came into view.
The base's outer walls have been eroded by time and the corrosive forces, with concrete peeling off in many places, exposing the rusty steel bars inside.
The outer gate was half-open and half-closed, and the metal chains on it had long since broken, leaving only a few twisted wires hanging on the door frame, swaying in the wind.
The surrounding barbed wire had collapsed, and the spikes at the broken ends swayed in the wind. It was extremely dilapidated and desolate, yet it also exuded an indescribable eeriness.
The group exchanged glances, and without hesitation, slowly moved towards the gate.
The rusty outer gate was pushed open by two contacts with a sharp sound that echoed in the empty space, causing one to frown slightly.
Without encountering any obstacles, the group arrived directly at the main gate of the base, which resembled a steel fortress with its heavy iron doors tightly shut.
"President Chu, everyone, this is it. This door is made of special materials, and we can't open it without using explosives."
