Chapter 72: Seeking Help
After hearing Song Nanxing's words, I turned around and looked behind me.
Logically speaking, smoke and dust like this would not take long to settle down.
But it has been almost 5 minutes, and the smoke and dust have not dissipated for a long time.
The feeling of unease in my heart grew stronger, and I subconsciously became alert.
"Something's wrong, let's get out of here."
As soon as the words fell, the thick smoke and dust floated towards us and enveloped us in an instant.
Seeing the white environment around me, I felt like I was back to the time when I was infected.
An Xiaowei?
The next second, I denied the idea in my mind.
I can feel that this smoke and dust is very similar to the thick fog that time, but they are not the same thing.
The visibility was too low, so I could only rely on my second sight to determine the location of other people, while trying my best to perceive my surroundings and prevent emergencies.
Fortunately, this time I was able to see the positions of the other three people, so at least I still had some initiative.
The most important thing at the moment is to gather everyone together first. If they are dispersed, if there really is something in the fog, it will be too easy to defeat them one by one.
Lin Hanning was closest to me, so I went towards her first.
The moment I grabbed her wrist, Lin Hanning subconsciously turned around to attack, but when she saw it was me, she forced herself to stop.
"Follow me, let's go find other people first." I turned around and said to Lin Hanning.
In such a fog, she didn't show much objection, nodded and followed me.
Fortunately, before I left the base, in order to prevent emergencies at night, I brought a parachute rope woven into a bracelet on my hand, which came in handy now.
I quickly untied the parachute rope in my hand and handed one end to Lin Hanning to prevent them from getting separated.
Using my second vision to look around, I quickly locked onto Song Nanxing's position, then pulled the rope and walked towards Song Nanxing.
"Old Song?"
"Gorilla?"
"Here, here." In the fog, Song Nanxing seemed unable to see my location, and could only rely on the sound to wave vigorously in the direction roughly corresponding to me.
Lin Hanning and I quickened our pace slightly as we reached him and handed him the parachute rope.
After confirming Jiang Wang's location again, we started moving towards him.
Unlike Song Nanxing who was looking around in the fog, and Lin Hanning who was running around, Jiang Wang was wandering hesitantly in place, stopping from time to time.
We have to hurry over, otherwise something might suddenly emerge from the fog.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but speed up my pace.
Fortunately, the distance was not too far and they soon reached Jiang Wang.
"Ji Ling? Is that you?"
Jiang Wang asked in the fog.
The next second, a slightly warm hand touched my fingertips and then held my hand.
…
My heart suddenly tightened, and I quickly drew my knife, cut my hand, and chopped at the person in front of me.
A light laugh sounded in front, and the person in front of him suddenly collapsed and disappeared in the fog.
In fact, from the very beginning, I was sure that this "Jiang Wang" was fake.
Because I saw two shadows similar to Jiang Wang, even their aura was very similar.
But as soon as I saw one of them, the faint Morse code sounded in my ears without warning.
Spelled out, it means: "Wrong."
But instead of avoiding it, it’s better to explore it.
After confirming that the real Jiang Wang was not in danger for the time being, I decided to try this fake Jiang Wang.
Unfortunately, nothing was found out, but since there was a Morse code warning, it also indirectly shows the degree of danger of this "Jiang Wang".
Since I couldn't find out, I could only hurry to the real Jiang Wang.
The real Jiang Wang's behavior is very similar to his real self. He doesn't act rashly, but he frantically searches for useful things on his body.
When we got to him, he was using his survival knowledge to reinforce his equipment in the fog.
"Stop doing this and follow me."
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment, then blurted out.
"Awesome Ji Ling, how did you find me? I couldn't even see where you were."
With my voice, Jiang Wang quickly determined my direction.
The four of us finally gathered together, and I stopped after handing him the parachute rope in my hand.
Although I did find them, I had no idea how to get out of the fog.
At this moment, a weak voice came to my ears.
"Save me, I don't want to die."
Although the cry for help was weak, it was not subtle, so others naturally heard it.
Lin Hanning's eyes lit up and he shouted in the direction of the voice.
"Is that you, Old Han?"
"Chief...it's me, come...save me."
After hearing the other party's answer, Lin Hanning immediately planned to walk over.
As the leader of the Brotherhood of Steel, Lin Hanning would never stand by and watch someone die.
Before she could walk over, I stopped in front of her.
Seeing me stop her, Lin Hanning looked at me with some confusion and asked.
"What's the problem?"
"Don't go over there, something's wrong."
After hearing what I said, Lin Hanning wanted to say something else, but Jiang Wang also held her back and nodded at her:
"Trust her."
Seeing Jiang Wangye's attitude, even though Lin Hanning had doubts in her heart, she had to give up.
Lin Hanning is not a fool. She naturally knows that compared to an illusory voice, I am obviously more trustworthy at the moment.
And I have a basis for this conclusion.
First, the existence of that fake Jiang Wang just now has made me more alert.
Moreover, this meatball came with great force and without any warning.
And as Lin Hanning said before, she was the only one who escaped from the cafeteria.
Although the possibility of her misjudgment cannot be ruled out, it is not a bad thing to be cautious at this moment.
I used my second vision to see that there was clearly a sound, but there was no entity in front of me.
Obviously, this sound is most likely just to confuse people.
The voice in the smoke and dust suddenly became louder after failing to attract anyone.
"Chief, come and save me, please hurry up."
This voice made my heart tremble.
At the same time, it was still confusing my brain, and I even had the urge to walk over.
In order to wake myself up, I prepared to bite the tip of my tongue.
At this moment, a delicate hand grabbed my hand, and the warmth coming from this palm suddenly made me wake up.
This palm is naturally Lin Hanning's hand.
At this time, her voice was heard.
"Hold my hand tight, I'm afraid this voice will continue to confuse you."
I felt a little worried when I heard what she said.
Song Nanxing, Jiang Wang and others didn't know if they could withstand this temptation.
"What about them?"
"I can't take care of them. I'm just holding your hand now."
Lin Hanning also needed to hold the rope with his other hand to confirm Jiang Wang's presence.
At this time, Jiang Wang also spoke.
"Come on, this little trick is nothing to me."
Hearing his voice, I felt slightly relieved.
Just as I was about to ask about Song Nanxing's situation, I suddenly realized that he was missing.
This sudden change made me a little nervous.
Then he shouted tentatively around.
"Song Nanxing, where are you?"
But the only response I got was the cry for help from the smoke and dust.
This made me worry about him.
At this moment, a pink lump of flesh suddenly appeared on the ground where I had not seen it.
