"This light... why does it feel a bit like the flash lights in a disco?" Reporter Zhou swallowed and made a dry joke, but it failed to ease the tense atmosphere. Instead, it made everyone feel a little more weird and absurd.
This damn place, the weird light, coupled with the metaphor of the disco flash lights, is really enough to make one's hair stand on end.
Mou Xuan narrowed his eyes, stared at the light, and said in a deep voice: "Be careful..." Before he finished speaking, he heard Li Biological Researcher exclaimed: "Oh my god! This is too magical!" Then, he walked towards the light as if possessed...
"Researcher Li! Come back!" Defense team member Sun shouted sternly, grabbed Researcher Li's arm and pulled him back like a chick.
"Don't worry about your life! This place looks very evil!"
Researcher Li was dragged so hard that he staggered and almost fell flat on his face.
He adjusted his glasses, looking unconvinced: "Team Leader Sun, you are hindering scientific research! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, maybe it contains the key to solving the mystery of the end of the world!"
"What the hell is the point!" Defense Team member Sun rolled his eyes. "You're already dead, what's the point of researching? Why don't you just send yourself in as a research specimen?"
"You..." Researcher Li was so angry that his face turned red. He was about to refute but was interrupted by Mou Xuan.
"Stop arguing!" Mou Xuan's tone was full of unquestionable majesty. "Researcher Li, I know you are eager to learn, but this place is indeed dangerous. You can't act rashly."
Although Researcher Li was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey Mou Xuan's order and could only retreat in dismay, muttering softly: "The road to science is always full of thorns..."
Just when everyone was arguing, something strange happened!
From the area flashing with strange light, several unknown creatures with strange appearances suddenly jumped out!
They were incredibly fast, like black lightning, rushing straight towards the team members!
"What the hell! What the hell is that!" Communicator Zhou screamed in fright and almost threw the communicator in his hand away.
"Defense! Defense!" The Sun defense team member reacted quickly, yelled, raised the weapon in his hand, and took the lead in firing at a creature that pounced on him.
"Bang bang bang!" The fierce gunfire broke the eerie silence. Bullets whizzed out but failed to stop the attack of these creatures.
They were extremely agile, tumbling and moving in the air, easily dodging most of the bullets.
"These guys... are too fast!" Captain Zhao of the expedition team gritted his teeth, the weapon in his hand spewed flames, but it felt like he was hitting the air.
For a moment, the team members were put on the defensive and were forced to retreat step by step by these strange creatures.
"Calm down! Everyone calm down!" Mou Xuan's calm voice rang out in the chaos. He dodged the attacks of the creatures while quickly observing their movement patterns. "Although these creatures are fast, their attack methods are single. Everyone cooperate with each other and concentrate firepower to attack their weaknesses!"
Captain Zhao of the expedition team led the way, wielding his weapons and engaging in close combat with an unknown creature. His movements were fierce and his moves were deadly, buying precious time for other team members.
"Their weakness is in the head!" Qian Space Scientist hid behind the bunker, carefully observing the creatures' actions, and used his knowledge to analyze their weaknesses, "Attack their heads!"
After receiving the prompt, the team members immediately adjusted their attack strategy and concentrated their firepower on the creature's head.
Sure enough, the heads of these creatures have weaker defenses. Once hit, they will let out a shrill roar and then fall to the ground.
After a fierce fight, the team members finally repelled these unknown creatures.
However, the battle also left some team members injured.
"Medical team member Wu, come and help!" Defense team member Sun shouted anxiously. His arm was scratched by a creature and blood was constantly gushing out.
Medical team member Wu arrived quickly and provided emergency treatment to the injured team members, but the limited medical supplies made everyone feel even more depressed.
Mou Xuan looked at the injured team member with a frown on his face. He looked around and the area with the strange light still exuded a disturbing atmosphere...
"It seems that we have to be more careful..." Mou Xuan's voice was low and firm. He looked up at the strange area with a complex expression in his eyes... He suddenly reached out and grabbed the arm of the captain of the expedition team, Zhao, and said in a serious tone: "Old Zhao, do you feel..."
"Old Zhao, do you feel that... the light seems to be dancing?" Mou Xuan's voice was very low, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement, as if he had discovered a new continent.
Captain Zhao of the expedition team was stunned at first, then he rolled his eyes, thinking, it's already this late, and Brother Xuan still has the mind to study light pollution?
But following Mou Xuan's gaze, he gradually realized something was wrong.
The light was indeed not simply flickering like before, but was dancing rhythmically and melodiously, just like a dancer swaying his head in a disco.
"Oh my god, it's true!" Captain Zhao of the expedition team couldn't help but swear, "This damn place, even the light is so improper!"
"Captain, I think we should retreat. This place is too weird!" Defense team member Sun was terrified. He pointed at the unknown creatures lying on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Who knows what kind of monsters are hiding in there? We may not be able to fill their teeth with so few people!"
"Yes, Captain, we have already lost several brothers. We can't take any more risks!" Communicator Zhou also advised. The communicator in his hand was crackling and the signal was intermittent, which made people upset.
"Retreat? Where to retreat?" Mou Xuan sneered and looked around. "We have already gone so far into the crack, and the way back is also full of dangers. What's more..." He paused, staring at the flickering light with burning eyes. "Don't you think that there is a huge secret hidden behind this light? Maybe the key to unlocking the mystery of the end of the world lies in it!"
"But……"
"No buts!" Mou Xuan interrupted Communicator Zhou, his tone unquestionable, "Fortune and wealth are sought in danger. If you want to survive in the end times, you have to dare to take risks! What's more, we have already paid such a huge price, are we going to return empty-handed? I won't accept that!"
After saying that, Mou Xuan no longer paid attention to everyone's reactions and walked straight towards the light.
His figure seemed a little blurry in the strange light, yet extremely firm.
"Brother Xuan..." Captain Zhao of the expedition team looked at Mou Xuan's back with mixed feelings.
He knew that no one could change Mou Xuan's decision.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Defense team member Sun asked somewhat at a loss.
Captain Zhao of the expedition team took a deep breath, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "What else can we do? Follow! Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, we have to accompany Brother Xuan to go through it!" After saying that, he took the lead to chase after Mou Xuan, leaving behind a resounding sentence:
"What's there to be afraid of? Just do it..."
