Bullets flew and bounced in the narrow space, shell casings scattered, and sparks flashed. After a few seconds, the rain-like gunfire finally stopped, smoke spreading, with a pungent smell that made breathing difficult, and sounds of retching around them.
Si Nan turned back, pale-faced: “The underground insects are quite large…”
Zhou Rong shouted: “Don’t say anymore!”
In the sunless underground world, the long-decayed drainage outlet, within a space filled with garbage and mud, had formed a terrifying ecological system.
Three minutes later, everyone crossed the railway track and began heading towards the central transportation hub.
“I just wasn’t mentally prepared…”
“Brother Rong, it’s really nothing.”
Zhou Rong, looking pale, led the way in front, with Chun Cao occasionally offering comfort. “
Zhang Yingjie laughed from behind: “Brother Rong has a phobia of insect clusters, a psychological shadow from previous missions. Although he can mostly overcome it, he occasionally still has some reaction, haha!”
Si Nan coldly said: “I just want to know what ‘all genders except Omega are equal’ means. I guess if an Omega were here, they wouldn’t react like Zhou Rong did. By the way, can someone give me another magazine?…”
The seven-person team successfully passed the checkpoint, walking along the light rail for half an hour, with the tunnel suddenly opening up.
Ahead was a space similar to a subway station, with the left platform emitting a pale light, faintly revealing zombie footdragging and howling; the right side was a railway track extending into deep darkness.
The railway track led to the southern C area, the armory.
And Zhou Rong’s group must board the platform here and head to the western B area to find the satellite communication center.
— They were about to part ways.
Yan Hao nodded, leading Ding Shi and Guo Weixiang across the track, using flashlights to walk deep into the tunnel.
Zhou Rong stood in place, waving for Chun Cao, Si Nan, and Zhang Yingjie to gather around, about to give instructions when suddenly Yan Hao returned, walking directly towards Si Nan.
Si Nan slightly furrowed his brow, but before he could ask, Yan Hao suddenly gave him a tight, heated embrace.
Under everyone’s gaze, this hug lasted so long that even Si Nan was stunned.
No one spoke, and no one moved. Zhou Rong silently lowered his eyes.
