Chapter 316: Night is Coming
She had just seen the monster in the video, but she had no idea what it was, as if she had never heard of it before.
Judging from the brutality of the monster when it killed people, as well as the extent of the damage to the Dawn Base, the monster's combat power is probably quite strong.
Zhao Lixin brushed the dust off his hands, stood up and walked towards Xiang Yu. After he took about four or five steps forward, the oxygen cylinder hanging around his waist fell to the ground with a bang.
We have been busy loading artillery since last night, and the ropes tied to the oxygen cylinders have become a little loose.
Bending down to pick up the oxygen cylinder on the ground, Zhao Lixin suddenly had an idea in his mind: those monsters that attacked the base last night.
Would they also be afraid of oxygen? "Lu Er, go and move out all the remaining oxygen cylinders in the warehouse..."
He always does things in a hurry. The moment he thinks of something, he tells the people around him to get busy.
Xiang Yu also knew that the situation was urgent, so he followed Lu Er to the warehouse and moved the oxygen cylinders out.
But there are actually very few survivors in the base who can move. In the past few years since the end of the world, there have been continuous natural disasters and man-made disasters.
They had already lost hope of survival, and now they were infected with bacteria, so they came to the Dawn Base.
They also wanted a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but now this shelter has also encountered a monster.
Those survivors who had lost hope of living squatted in the corner numbly, having already chosen to die peacefully in their hearts.
Having survived until now in this hopeless doomsday, they all know very well in their hearts that after surviving today, there may not be a tomorrow, and every day feels like it has been stolen.
Now that they can no longer live, they don't care what will happen next. In short, they just want to have a good rest before they die.
Zhao Lixin has become accustomed to these people's reactions. After leaving the shelter in City A, he has met all kinds of survivors in the past few years.
There were only a dozen survivors who entered the warehouse to move things. Lu Er saw Xiang Yu coming over to help.
Without saying a word, he asked her to move the oxygen box in the corner.
Xiang Yu bent down and moved one box after another. She had her own considerations in her mind. It was not clear how many monsters there were at the moment.
If she was targeted by those monsters in the fortress, it would be difficult for her to deal with them alone.
In addition, it gets dark very quickly now. At 4:30 yesterday, thick gray fog began to rise all around.
Today, it was just over 3:40 and fog began to drift around. If we return to the fortress along the same route, we would probably encounter those monsters on the way.
It would be better to stay at Dawn Base and observe the situation.
The clouds began to roll up quickly, and soon blocked the last ray of light in the sky, and the light from the distance began to dim.
The sky was like the open mouth of a monster, and at half past three, darkness fell completely.
After the last ray of light disappeared, some of the less courageous survivors in the Dawn Base screamed instantly.
Everyone was crowding towards the center of the Dawn Base, while some of the survivors were so frightened that they simply rushed into the thick fog ahead.
Some survivors who had originally prepared themselves to die peacefully leaned quietly against the wall, staring at the thick fog ahead with numb eyes.
"Sister Xiang Yu, Brother Zhao gave these to you," Lu Er handed a pair of glasses to Xiang Yu, "These glasses are not night vision glasses. They can only see clearly within a distance of about 50 meters in the fog."
Lu Er was also wearing a pair of glasses. Xiang Yu reached out to take them and put them directly on his eyes.
At this time, Zhao Lixin and a dozen survivors were busy stuffing oxygen cylinders into the muzzle.
Xiang Yu took three or two steps towards the wall in front of him, then jumped over the wall easily, squatted on the wall and looked towards the thick fog in front of him.
After more than half an hour, there was still no discovery. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, but the surrounding environment was shrouded in gray fog.
It was like a scene of darkness.
At this time, Zhao Lixin had already loaded the dozen or so firecrackers in the warehouse and was instructing his men to push the shells to the highest point of the base.
The monsters were placed in corresponding positions according to their heights. Xiang Yu listened to the shouting behind him and turned his head to take a few looks.
"Wuwuwuwu..., Wuwuwuwu..., Dad, let's get up and run, I'm scared, Mom, Shanshan is scared, let's go inside, okay..."
At this time, in the corner behind her, the little girl was kneeling in front of two adults, constantly pushing them with her hands.
He even tried to pull up the two people who were leaning against the corner. The little girl cried and screamed while trying her best.
But how can the strength of a few-year-old child be compared with that of an adult?
The little girl thought about the horrible appearance of the monster last night and didn't want to stay here and wait to die, but her parents had obviously accepted their fate.
The couple snuggled up to each other, and even though the little girl pushed them, they did not stand up. They looked at the little girl with completely calm eyes.
