Chapter 337 Going Crazy
But when Captain Zhang had just finished marking and was about to turn around to tell his teammates to keep going, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a pair of eyes with bright light in the woods behind his teammates, staring at them.
Captain Zhang was startled and immediately shouted, "Be careful, there's something behind us."
Everyone looked behind them warily.
But Captain Zhang's previous movement also attracted the other party's attention. When everyone turned around, those shining eyes immediately hid behind the thick trees. After a rustling sound, the unknown creature had left the place.
Seeing Captain Zhang's ugly face, Shen Zhiyu asked, "Captain Zhang, did you see what it was just now?"
"No, I only saw a pair of shining eyes, not like human eyes." Captain Zhang said, and then asked, "Did you see anything when you turned around?"
Shen Zhiyu said: "No, that thing was too fast. It disappeared in the blink of an eye, but I heard the noise when it left."
So, Captain Zhang was not mistaken, there was indeed something watching them, but here, Captain Zhang asked doubtfully: "Is this thing watching us only from here? Or has it actually been following us all along, but we just didn't know it?"
If the latter is the case, it would be terrible.
But Ling Jiang said, "It shouldn't be the latter. Lao Gao was carrying these two people on his back and walking behind us. I was worried he might notice something unexpected, so I would look back from time to time. You said those eyes were shining, so they must be very dazzling. If they were really following us, I couldn't have missed them when I turned back. And I turned back so many times along the way, but I didn't see them once. They couldn't have been following us the whole way."
At this time, Lan Jin also echoed: "Although I didn't see as much as Ling Jiang, I would look back from time to time. I really didn't see those shining eyes along the way."
Hearing what the two men said, the team members all breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that they didn't have to follow them all the time.
But on second thought, there is actually no difference between the two, because this dense forest is inherently dangerous. As for what kind of danger it is, does it matter?
Captain Zhang simply said, "Anyway, let's all be careful."
Perhaps after resting for a while, Xi Yu woke up slowly from Lao Gao's shoulder. He asked in confusion, "What happened to me?"
Seeing that the person was awake, Lao Gao quickly put him down from his shoulders. He explained, "You just fainted, and our team couldn't stay here any longer, so I carried you all the way here."
Xi Yu immediately said, "Thank you."
Lao Gao asked, "Have you recovered? Can you walk the rest of the way on your own?"
Xi Yu nodded and said, "Okay."
After saying that, Xi Yu glanced at his colleague on Lao Gao's shoulder and Pei Xin on Lao Shi's shoulder and asked, "Aren't they both awake?"
"No, you're the first one to wake up." Captain Zhang said, "Since Lao Gao doesn't need to carry us, let's keep going."
…
On the way, the other two people who were carried on the shoulders woke up one after another, and the team staggered forward again.
However, the further they went in, the more tired they felt. When their fatigue reached its limit, they finally realized that something was wrong.
Shen Zhiyu said: "Do you feel that there seems to be something wrong with your body?"
Lan Jin asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Zhi also replied, "Our bodies have all been specially trained. Before the apocalypse, we also walked through (wild) forests. Even after walking for two days and two nights, we weren't as exhausted as we are now. But now, we are extremely tired. It's abnormally tired."
Shen Zhiyu said: "Yes, even if we encountered many mutant creatures along the way, it was not us who dealt with them. We were just walking all the way. With our physical strength, we shouldn't be as tired as we are now."
"Yes, I feel like my legs are being pulled by countless hands, and every step is very difficult." After Shen Zhiyan finished speaking, he looked at Lan Jin with great confusion and asked, "Don't you feel the same way?"
Lan Jin really didn't. "No, my steps are definitely heavy. We've never been this tired before, but I think it's because I didn't get enough rest. I can walk, but I'm tired."
This was because Lan Jin and the other three replenished themselves with countless spiritual spring waters on the way. Otherwise, the four of them, who had been walking for such a long time, would not have had the energy to keep up with the pace of these people whose physical strength had been abnormally high.
After hearing Lan Jin's description, everyone had bad thoughts in their minds.
Captain Zhang asked, "How many of you have this reaction?"
What's strange is that those team members without super powers all have such a reaction, but those with super powers do not. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that after entering this section, they have not encountered any mutant creatures.
Lan Jin asked cautiously, "How long has it been since we were attacked by mutant creatures?"
Captain Zhang glanced at his watch and said, "Since I made the note on the map, we've only been walking for half an hour. Did this happen within that half hour?"
Shen Zhiyan immediately said: “Yes, it happened within this half hour.”
Huang Jinghe immediately had a brilliant idea, "Could it be that there is something here that can become invisible, and is holding your feet from below?"
While goose bumps covered their bodies, everyone felt that this statement was too fantastical.
Captain Zhang even said, "If I could become invisible and knew someone was trespassing, I would definitely take care of them stealthily. Who would use such a roundabout method and delay everyone's progress? Is it because they think it's not troublesome enough, or because they think they won't die quickly enough after being discovered?"
Lan Jin asked, "Captain Zhang, didn't you feel like your legs were being pulled? Don't you have any special abilities?"
Captain Zhang explained, "I have special abilities, I just can't use them here. That's probably why I'm not classified with them."
After saying that, Captain Zhang turned his attention to his teammate who had also lost his ability. That teammate also said, "My plant-based ability is also unusable, but my legs don't feel like they're being held, and I have good physical strength, so I can still walk."
Captain Zhang is the same as him, so he has no way of understanding what Lan Jin or the team members without special abilities are feeling at this moment.
For a moment, Captain Zhang had a headache.
"I'm really going crazy." Captain Zhang scratched his head irritably and asked, "What should we do now?"
