Because Sun Tao didn't react in time, his knee hit a steel plate when he fell, and it seemed that something pierced his calf when he hit the ground.
Blood continued to flow from the wound on his calf. Sun Tao gritted his teeth and said, "It's nothing, just a minor injury. They might try to escape. They're probably very guilty; they don't even have the courage to talk to us! I'm starting to seriously suspect that there might be cannibalism going on here!"
Upon hearing the other party's analysis, Lu Yuan frowned immediately: "Damn it, if it's really like that again, then I don't mind killing a few people! Let's go, chase after them!"
So the two of them ran quickly forward. When they reached the top of the stairs, Lu Yuan used his night vision binoculars to look around.
They discovered that the others had long since disappeared. Sun Tao had injured his calf and bumped his knee, so he was limping as he ran, but it didn't affect his speed at all. It was clear that Sun Tao hadn't lacked exercise since entering the dimensional space.
"There's a room inside, probably where they just escaped from. There might be some clues inside!"
Lu Yuan nodded, then led Sun Tao toward the room. When they reached the door, Lu Yuan turned to Sun Tao and asked, "How's your marksmanship?"
Sun Tao nodded: "Don't worry, I won a shooting championship in the Americas before. Don't underestimate my marksmanship. Besides, my knee is injured, so I might not be able to kick down the door properly!"
Lu Yuan immediately made an OK sign to the other person, and the two of them squatted in front of the door for a short pause until Lu Yuan whispered, "Three, two, one."
Next, Lu Yuan kicked the door open, and Sun Tao, holding a rifle, aimed it into the room.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, Lu Yuan suddenly shouted, "Everyone inside, get down, or I'll shoot!"
At that moment, a series of wailing sounds came from inside, as if someone's mouth had been tied up, and the sounds seemed to be coming from a woman's mouth.
Lu Yuan quickly took out his flashlight and shone it inside. He saw that there were more than a dozen women in the room. Their arms and legs were tied, and their mouths were covered with a thick strip of cloth, making it impossible for them to make a sound.
Moreover, Lu Yuan saw several skeletons on the ground, which clearly indicated that these people had eaten human flesh.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan suppressed his disgust and immediately stepped forward to pull the gag off a woman's mouth.
"Who are those people? How many people are there in total?"
When the gag was removed from the woman's mouth, a pool of blood flowed out, and Lu Yuan then realized that the woman's tongue had been cut off.
She made various gestures while sobbing, tears welling in her eyes, and her body was so dirty that her original skin color was completely unrecognizable.
Seeing this miserable state, Lu Yuan couldn't help but frown. He quickly took out a piece of clothing from his dimensional space and handed it to the other person.
Then Lu Yuan turned his head and saw that Sun Tao skillfully untied all the gags from the women's mouths, but he did not intend to unlock their handcuffs.
After untying the bandages from several people, Sun Tao noticed that the tongue of a pretty woman hadn't been cut off. He quickly asked, "Who are those people? How long have you been held here? How many people are here? Are they hiding somewhere? What weapons do they have? How many people are there in total? Tell me everything!"
Instead of answering the question directly, the woman burst into tears. She rushed forward, hugged Sun Tao's knees, and wept bitterly.
Sun Tao gently squatted down in front of her and patted her back. After she calmed down, he took out a biscuit from his pocket and handed it to her.
"Eat up, then answer my question. We need to deal with these scumbags now!"
The moment the woman saw the cookies, tears welled up in her eyes again. She stuffed all the cookies into her mouth while crying, choking so much that her eyes rolled back.
Lu Yuan walked over and handed her a bottle of water. She quickly picked up the bottle and drank it down her throat, coughing several times before finally recovering.
"Those people are from the United States. There are more than thirty of them. They used to be wealthy people in a flying club, but after the apocalypse broke out, they were unable to return home and were trapped here."
So they sold off everything, including the plane, then switched to guns and killed everyone at the maintenance depot, and captured all of us.
"We've been trapped here for years. There were originally hundreds of sisters, but they all died here. Now only we are left. You must kill them quickly, otherwise they might escape!"
The woman's mind was very clear; clearly, these words had been brewing in her mind for a long time.
After listening, Lu Yuan immediately said to Sun Tao, "I'm leaving this place to you. I'll leave you some supplies. You take care of these women. I'm going to chase after those people. You must guard this place well. If anyone comes, just shoot!"
Sun Tao nodded immediately. He knew that his legs were injured and it would be inconvenient for him to pursue the enemy, but he had witnessed Lu Yuan's abilities.
Although we don't know how good Lu Yuan's marksmanship is, with this skill by his side, dealing with those people shouldn't be a problem.
