She held her coat and sat up. Not seeing him, she called out, "Chen Xu, Chen Xu..."

"You're awake." Chen Xu came in from outside, holding the bottle of mist water in his hand. He handed it over and said, "Go wash your face and eat something, then we'll continue."

"Yeah." She handed his coat back to him and took the bottle.

After a while, the two of them ate some compressed biscuits and drank some water for breakfast, and then set out to continue exploring the military camp.

This walk took several hours.

Chen Xu stood on a flag-raising platform, the flagpole on it had been broken. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a little irritated.

It was already the sixth day since he entered this dream. The thick fog that was everywhere in this world really annoyed him. The fog blocked his vision and caused him great trouble. It made him feel like he was half blind, constantly wearing away his patience and making him more and more anxious.

He had been walking in this military camp for almost a day and had gained nothing.

Bai Jinxuan, who was standing next to him, was a little out of breath and said, "Chen Xu, let's take a break."

"Okay." He let out a breath, suppressed his anxiety, sat down, unscrewed the bottle and took a sip of water.

After resting for half an hour, the two continued to explore.

…………

It was getting dark, and the two still found nothing.

"Let's find a place to stay for the night."

After a day of searching, Chen Xu was ready for a protracted war. His mood calmed down. He looked up at the sky and said.

A few meters away, Bai Jinxuan was about to walk out of his sight. Suddenly, her voice came over, "Chen Xu, look at this road."

Chen Xu walked over when he heard this. She was pointing at the ground and said to him, "Is it newer than other roads?"

He was moved. This cement road looked different from other roads. Its color was darker, and it was obviously not built at the same time as those roads.

He said, "Go and have a look?"

She nodded, "Yeah."

The two walked along this cement road. At this point, there were few craters on the road. However, there were still some signs of damage, a bit like it was caused by tracks.

He thought it was probably left behind by a tank passing by.

It took more than half an hour to walk and it was already completely dark.

Chen Xu took out another flashlight and turned it on. This time he brought two flashlights in total. The one he used last night had run out of battery, so this was the last one.

After walking for a few more minutes, a pitch-black cave entrance suddenly appeared in Chen Xu's sight. He was delighted, as he had finally made a new discovery.

Taking two more steps closer, I could see that this was a passage, similar to the passage leading to the shelter in my previous dream.

However, he was somewhat surprised when he saw the heavy door that had fallen to the ground and was severely deformed.

This door was obviously destroyed by violence, which means that the inside had been breached.

Should I go in? He looked a little serious, and for a moment he was having trouble making a decision.

If I don’t go in, all my time and energy of the past few days will be wasted, which I really can’t accept.

Go in, you may encounter a large group of enemies. In such a closed environment, without the barrier of thick fog, the risk factor rises sharply.

He stood in front of the door for nearly a minute, and finally made a decision. He turned around and said to Bai Jinxuan, "You stay here, I'll go in and take a look. After an hour, if I haven't come out, you can leave here."

As he spoke, he stuffed the cell phone with two bars of battery left and the flashlight into her hands.

She shook her head, "I don't."

"If you follow me, don't follow me anymore." Chen Xu said coldly, holding the electromagnetic pulse gun, putting on night vision goggles, and walked into the passage.

Bai Jinxuan watched his back disappear from his sight, breathing a little rapid, biting his lower lip, and holding the flashlight tightly.

One minute, two minutes...

Ten minutes later, she took a deep breath, took a step, and walked into the passage, muttering, "You abandoned me, I don't want to listen to you..."

…………

The passage was not very long. After about 20 meters, the view suddenly became open. After arriving here, the fog had become very light. Chen Xu could see the surrounding environment clearly through the night vision goggles.

This is a hall, and there are traces of battle everywhere. On the ground and walls, there are bloodstains everywhere. One can imagine how fierce the battle was here.

"Where on earth is the body?"

He felt something was strange, as there were several doors in the hall, with numbers 01 to 05 written on them.

He walked around the hall and found no valuable clues, so he went straight into Door 01.

Behind the door is a long passage with a door at regular intervals. Looking inside, there are rooms, meeting rooms and the like.

Almost every room had traces of fighting, blood was sprayed everywhere, there were many bullet holes on the walls, and some holes left by explosions.

The strong smell of gunpowder mixed with the smell of blood filled his nostrils. A scene of brutal fighting flashed before his eyes, and every hair on his body stood up.

He walked deeper and deeper into the tunnel. This underground base was larger than he had expected. After walking nearly two kilometers, he still hadn't reached the end.

Suddenly, he squatted down and touched the ground, and found a trace of blood on his gloves. The blood here had not yet dried.

Bang.

A slight metal collision sound suddenly rang out. In this silent environment, his head suddenly exploded when he heard it. He reflexively hid in the next room.

He clenched the electromagnetic pulse gun in his hand, tried his best to control his breathing, and listened attentively to the movements outside.

Bang.

There was another sound, and his heart seemed to be hit and jumped heavily.

“Here it comes!”

After being in this dreamland for so many days and running around in the fog, he finally made a discovery. He was so excited that his palms were sweating. However, he did not act rashly and continued to wait with bated breath.

He could hear that the voice was approaching this side.

After a few seconds, the sound rang out again, this time it was clearer, like the sound of large metal objects colliding with each other.

He reached behind his backpack, took out a mirror, put it outside, and began to observe with the help of the reflection in the mirror.

In the mirror, there was a trailer driving out from the corner and turning into the intersection opposite. The trailer was connected section by section. The trailer was quite long, and when turning, it would hit the corner of the wall, making a bang.

Unfortunately, because the front of the car was facing in the other direction, he couldn't see whether it was a person or a robot on the front of the car, nor could he tell whether it was a friend or an enemy.

Bang.

Another trailer turned the corner, and suddenly, there was a bang, and something fell off the truck.

Chen Xu looked through the mirror and saw that it was clearly a corpse.

No wonder there were no bodies along the way, they were all taken away. In fact, not only bodies, but even weapons were not left behind.

At this moment, he saw the trailer suddenly stop. His heart skipped a beat.

A moment later, a figure came over, dragged the corpse on the ground, threw it upwards, and threw it onto a trailer more than two meters high.

When Chen Xu saw this scene, he immediately felt a chill from behind. Such strength was not something that ordinary people could possess. The one in front of him was a robot.

This means that this military camp, including the underground base, has been captured by robots.

This is the worst-case scenario for him.

In the mirror, the robot was about to turn around, but suddenly stopped and looked over here. A red light flashed in its eyes.

Discovered!

His heart was shocked, but his reaction was extremely quick. He rushed out, aimed the gun in his hand, and shot. The whole process took no more than one second.

The robot remained standing with fire flashing from its eyes, and then it remained motionless.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard a "dong, dong" sound coming from the passage ahead. His heart sank, knowing that he had been discovered again.

He did not turn around and run away. The passage behind him was straight. If the other party used a gun, he would have no way to hide. Moreover, he had seen the speed of robots, and he could not outrun them.

At times like this, the only option is to fight.

He rushed to the trailer, hanging the electromagnetic pulse gun on his waist, jumped up, grabbed the edge of the trailer with both hands, and flipped over. He fell on a pile of corpses.

"Feel sorry."

As he spoke, he quickly jumped onto the trailer in front, which was full of weapons.

Several robots appeared in the passage directly ahead. With every step they took, their heads almost hit the top of the passage, and when they fell, they hit the ground with a loud thump.

Every time they fell, they made a "dong" and "dong" sound, like a death warrant.

When they were less than thirty meters away from the trailer, Chen Xu had already picked up a light machine gun, quickly checked the magazine, and seeing that it was loaded with bullets, he pulled the bolt and pulled the trigger.

Ta-ta-ta…

A string of fire came out of the muzzle of the gun, and several robots in front of the passage were knocked flying one by one.

He kept pulling the trigger until he saw every robot's head was smashed to pieces, then he stopped.

Suddenly, he heard a sound behind him. He turned the gun and saw a hand grabbing the barrel. The metal barrel was like plastic and was easily broken.

He missed a step and fell down at the moment when he met the robot. It was a girl's face with big, bright eyes and a smile on her face.

But at this moment, the smile in the eyes was so gloomy.

He drew out the electromagnetic pulse gun from his waist as quickly as possible and was about to aim when his leg tightened, followed by a sharp pain, and his body was lifted off the ground.

At the critical moment of life and death, he followed his intuition, adjusted the muzzle of the gun, and pulled the switch.

Then, he flew into the air, fell to the ground on his back, and hit him so hard that he couldn't breathe and almost died.

He endured the pain and raised his head from the ground, just in time to see the girl-shaped robot falling from the trailer and hitting the ground.

"cough……"

He felt relieved, coughed violently a few times, turned over with difficulty, and lay there.

It was a close call, I almost got smashed into a pulp.

These robots, despite their beautiful appearance, were so violent that they actually wanted to catch him and smash him to death.

After panting for a while, he tried to stand up, but his legs were in great pain, and his heart sank. He struggled to sit up and saw that his calves were severely deformed, and he knew that his feet might be useless.

At this time, the sound of footsteps was heard.

He turned his head suddenly and looked around. Soon, he saw his gun a few meters away. He crawled over, grabbed it in his hand, and pointed the gun in the direction of the footsteps.

"Even if I die, I have to take someone with me."

A beam of light shone over, followed by a breathless voice, "Chen Xu——"

Chen Xu raised the gun and looked at Bai Jinxuan in astonishment. "Why... didn't I tell you to wait for me outside?"

"What happened to you?" Bai Jinxuan saw him lying on the ground, and hurried over to ask, "Where are you injured?"

Chen Xu sighed and said, "My foot is injured and I can't move. You should leave quickly. It's very dangerous here."

Bai Jinxuan shone the flashlight at his feet, took a look, and his face turned pale.

Chen Xu grabbed her shoulders and said, "Leave immediately. You should still have a chance to escape."

Bai Jinxuan suddenly stood up, threw the flashlight aside, grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, and dragged him back. While dragging, he gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "I can't survive here without you. Anyway, I'd rather die with you."

Chen Xu wanted to grab her hand, but stopped halfway.

PS: This is the first update of the day. There will be another one in the evening. I will try to be as early as possible.
