Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Swarm of Mutant Rats
The group advanced slowly, and only the sound of paddling water could be heard in their ears, and for a while, everyone did not dare to speak.
After staying in the water for a long time, An Qitong only felt uncomfortable, always felt that the things in the water were not clean, and it made his body very itchy.
A soldier in front of him shone a flashlight back and forth on both sides, and those holes of different sizes were like monsters with big mouths, afraid of something dangerous suddenly rushing out of them.
"Hey, you can see the dry ground up ahead!"
A soldier held a flashlight, and the beam of light was shining not far in front, and it could be seen that it was a dry road, and the entire dark road became a lot wider when it got there, at least, An Qitong saw that the road and the waterway were separated, the road was on the left, and the ground was on the right.
"Really? It's great, it's hard to stand it. ”
Hu Min happily grabbed Wang Meng's hand, and the two of them looked as if they had never seen land in their lives.
The speed of the team was obviously much faster, and when An Qitong's feet stepped on the dry passage, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, I don't have to soak in such dirty water anymore."
Xiao Dapeng, a big man, was a little prostration, and he didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not, he sat down with his buttocks, which showed that he had been holding back for too long.
Everyone's bodies were soaked except from the shoulders up, and even though it was a hot season, there was still a hint of chill in the sewers where there was no sunlight, especially when they were all wet.
An Qitong saw that everyone was not leaving, and the political commissar and Dr. Li looked at the map on the side, and she also stood there, carefully looking at this section of the road.
This section of the road that is exposed to the water, turned forward, and I can't see how long it is, and next to it, there is still a sewer, An Qitong saw a stone at his feet, and kicked the stone into the water with his foot, but found that this section of the small waterway seems to be deeper than just now, and it has not passed the top of people's heads.
On the wall next to the sewer, there are still many outlets, large and small. It's just that they don't have this side anymore.
"An An, what are you looking at? Is there something wrong? ”
Lin Zihao came to An Qitong's side, thinking that An Qitong was using his ability to see something.
"No, I haven't noticed anything wrong, I just don't know where we're going, how long are we going to be from our destination?"
"Come on, this is the second half of the sewer section, and the rest of the road is out of the water, so we'll be able to get out soon."
The political commissar answered An Qitong's question, he put away the map, and between his eyebrows he could see that it was much easier than before.
"Then let's move on."
Lin Zihao looked at An Qitong's soaked clothes, no matter what, it was better to go out quickly.
"I'll go see if everyone is okay, if you accidentally bite something in that section of water just now, it will be troublesome, and infection is a big problem."
After Dr. Li finished speaking, he pointed to the two little soldiers beside him and walked towards the end of the team with her, and when he passed by Zhao Ran's side, he asked with special concern:
"Well, seeing that your face is not good, do you want me to show you again?"
"No thanks!"
Zhao Ran avoided Dr. Li's hand that he wanted to reach out very unnaturally, and An Qitong was a little surprised to see it, it seemed that Zhao Ran seemed to be very resistant to Dr. Li's approach.
"That's good."
Dr. Lee smiled nonchalantly and left with the two fighters.
"Well, in that case, let's wait a minute."
Comrade Political Commissar looked at the direction in which Dr. Li had left and ordered the soldiers to be vigilant.
Looking at the dark passages that were trapped in darkness on both sides, An Qitong always felt that the atmosphere here was a little anxious. Perhaps humans are uncomfortable in the dark for a long time, and the fact that this is a dark and damp sewer makes people quickly think of the dangers that happened in the sewers.
"Lin Zihao, I always feel that this place can't be reassuring, I want to take a look."
An Qitong's voice was very low, if Lin Zihao hadn't stood close enough, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to hear it.
Lin Zihao nodded, pulled An Qitong to Xiao Dapeng and Hu Min's side, and motioned for them to block An Qitong and not let others find out.
An Qitong closed her eyes and looked at the sewer where they were more clearly, she saw that Dr. Li was asking about some of the fighters, and when An Qitong was unprepared, Dr. Li suddenly looked over to An Qitong's side.
An Qitong was a little shocked by this look, as if Dr. Li seemed to have discovered her and knew what she was doing.
"An An, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Zihao has been paying attention to An Qitong's situation, and when he saw An Qitong, he was obviously frightened, so he hurriedly spoke up and asked anxiously.
An Qitong opened his eyes, gasped, and told everyone what had just happened.
"You mean, Dr. Lee seems to be able to spot you, right?"
An Qitong nodded, this was the first time she had encountered this kind of situation, and she was sure that it was not that she was dazzled, but that she really felt that Dr. Li seemed to be able to find her.
"It's okay, maybe it's a coincidence, no, you're probably just too nervous, it's so dark here, and it's so depressing, it's normal for people to subconsciously have illusions and hallucinations, or you should take a break."
Lin Zihao felt that he couldn't comment before it was confirmed, this Dr. Li used to think that there was nothing wrong with him except for the fact that he opened the door.
Here, Lin Zihao was comforting An Qitong, while Doctor Li, on the other hand, glanced thoughtfully at Lin Zihao's direction, and continued to patrol among the soldiers.
After that, no one spoke again, and there was no sound in the whole team except the sound of breathing.
Gradually, a subtle and sharp voice sounded around the team, at first everyone didn't care, but slowly the sound became more and more obvious, feeling closer and closer to them, and now, everyone was a little flustered.
"What sound? Where did it come from? ”
Comrade Political Commissar asked, but there were many holes in the sewer, and it was a little difficult to figure out where the sound was coming from.
Just when he was in a panic, An Qitong had already used his ability to check what kind of sound it was, it seemed to be more and more, getting louder and louder, and if he didn't figure it out, it was like a bomb hanging overhead, which would explode at any time.
An Qitong looked carefully, not letting go of every place, and finally, she felt that the source of the sound was in a large hole on the other side of the sewer. Not far from them, right behind them.
An Qitong pinpointed the entrance of the cave and wanted to see what it was, but as a result, she screamed in fear.
"An An, what's wrong? What do you see? ”
An Qitong was so frightened that he opened his eyes, his face was covered with sweat, his face was pale, and his eyes were not focused for a while.
"An An? Ann? What's wrong? ”
Lin Zihao held An Qitong's hand anxiously, he couldn't figure out what An Qitong had seen.
"Old ...... Rats ......"
An Qitong stammered, and finally spoke, but Xiao Dapeng laughed.
"I said sister, what's so scary about rats, look at you, I thought it was a zombie swarm!"
"No...... No...... Be. It's a big bunch of rats, a bunch of mutated rats! ”
An Qitong hurriedly shook her head, not as Xiao Dapeng understood, because what she saw was not one or two mice, but a large group of mice, all of them the size of kittens, pitch-black fur, and more importantly, each mouse had a pair of eyes that shone red, just like the mutated zombie they encountered in the public security bureau building.
After An Qitong finished speaking, before others did anything, Hu Min and Wang Meng screamed one after another, how about it, what are you talking about, what are you most afraid of are mice, and now there are still a large group of mutated mice, are they all going to become food for mice?
"You see clearly, where is it?"
Lin Zihao hurriedly asked.
"Well, in the back, behind us, in a big water hole, it is estimated that it is about to come out, let's hurry up, we can't stay here."
As soon as An Qitong's words were finished, there was a miserable scream at the back of the team.
The voice was terrifying and heartbreaking, and everyone shuddered when they heard it.
"Coming, they're coming, let's go, can't stay here."
With just one glance, An Qitong saw the dense rats, which kept jumping out of the hole, as if they had found a lot of fresh flesh and blood here, swimming frantically across the water and rushing towards the crowd.
