Lu Yuan took the computer, glanced at the information on it, and his expression instantly froze.
"Damn it, the military has slaughtered so many apes. Could they have angered the group? We're probably going to be implicated!"
Chen Yan sighed softly. "The military's actions are practically a direct confrontation with the apes. There are probably a lot of apes here, as you can tell from the vast banana plantations. They attacked without even looking. Sigh, we might be dragged into this mess."
Hei Zi, standing to the side, also looked troubled. "Lu Yuan, what do you think we should do next? Should we go somewhere else?"
Lu Yuan fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he finally looked up at the outside of the cave.
"Let's wait and see how things go. We don't know if there are any signs of improvement. Let's observe first. If the apes don't launch an attack, we can follow the military through here. If they do attack, we'll be forced to choose another route."
Afterwards, everyone went back to rest, and the second class was held deep inside the banana plantation.
The convoy of military vehicles continued to advance rapidly, and whenever they encountered an obstacle, they were met with a barrage of artillery fire.
They used to be overwhelmed by mutated beasts, but now, encountering these humanoid apes that are only a few meters tall, it's like entering a beginner's village.
At that moment, a hint of joy appeared on the face of the commander of the vehicles in the center. He glanced down at the time.
"Inform the convoy ahead that I plan to have breakfast on the riverbank in the center tomorrow morning. I hope they can hurry so I can have some fresh fish there."
His adjutant, beaming, picked up the walkie-talkie and relayed his message.
Soon after receiving the message, the convoy ahead showed a hint of excitement on their faces.
"Second team leader, have you received the message? The boss said he wants to go to the central area to eat fish. Let's speed things up, brothers."
I remember hearing the voice of the second team over the walkie-talkie.
"No problem, I'm a little tired too. Let's get there as soon as possible so we can have a simple breakfast and get some rest. I haven't slept well these past few days because I've been so worried."
After a brief discussion, both sides immediately ordered their men to speed up their advance.
At this moment, it is more than 10 kilometers away from the banana grove.
Small black dots appeared on the ground, their sheer number was astonishing.
There was a flurry of footsteps in the woods, but the military paid no attention to them; the roar of their vehicle engines was much louder.
These black dots look like apes or humans at the same time. They are apes that came from the altar. There are tens of thousands of them. Each of them is carrying a weapon that looks like a stone axe or a stone hammer.
"Aww!"
When the lead ape rushed into the banana plantation, it immediately saw the dense array of car lights in the distance and then broke the large iron rod it was waving.
When the apes behind them saw the car lights in the distance, their eyes were filled with anger.
Then, when all the apes behind had arrived, the ape kept using its hands and feet to explain its next plan.
The apes behind them were shouting excitedly and waving their weapons.
At the ape's command, tens of thousands of apes rushed toward the convoy.
The banana trees that were obstructing the vehicles in the banana plantation were cut down one by one, so the vehicles were not traveling very fast.
However, the first and second teams, as the earlier team members, were driving smaller off-road vehicles with better off-road capabilities to scout ahead.
They stopped their vehicles about 10 kilometers from the main force behind them.
Since they were about to reach the center if they continued walking, the captains of the first and second teams got out of the car, exchanged cigarettes, and chatted about what they had encountered on the way.
They looked very relaxed, as if they were on vacation.
However, what they didn't know was that a powerful crisis was approaching them.
The second team leader lit a cigarette and glanced in the distance.
"Well, it's finally almost done. I thought it would be a difficult task, but I didn't expect to encounter apes along the way that were not even as good as second-tier mutated beasts. It's really boring."
The team leader nodded slightly.
"Yes, it's finally almost done. I already miss my wife. She said she'd prepare a big welcome feast for me when I go back. I wonder how many dishes she'll make. We'll have dinner together at my house later."
"Haha, okay, but don't complain that I eat too much."
"If you had said this to me six months ago, I definitely wouldn't have let you go. But the situation is different now. Resources are plentiful, so naturally we should eat more good food."
The two were chatting casually when suddenly a commotion arose from the woods in the distance.
The two vigilant captains quickly picked up their flashlights and shone them in the direction of their leader.
At that moment, several dark figures flashed by. The two men exchanged a glance and both read a sense of shock in each other's eyes.
