A group of eight people shuttled through the silent jungle, because it was too dense, the deep jungle almost did not see sunlight all day long, a damp and rotten breath came to the face, and the moist water vapor stained the body, and everyone felt that the body was damp.

And because the jungle was so dense, it was almost difficult to move forward, and it was necessary to alternately use wooden sticks and other tools to open the way ahead, and Fischer led Jennifer and the two to follow behind, with only the rustle of the leaves and the silent and suppressed breathing of everyone along the way.

Moreover, people will lose their way from time to time, and someone will need to climb high to find their target at the top of the mountain again.

"Would anyone really sacrifice themselves to light up those towers?"

Just as the fatigue of the team was getting stronger and the speed of the march was getting slower and slower, one of the blonde women suddenly whispered, "There are two hundred signal towers on the entire island, so it will take two hundred people to sacrifice themselves...... Will there really be so many people who would be willing to sacrifice themselves to save us? ”

Hearing this, everyone in the entire team was stunned, and their steps slowed down unconsciously.

More than 500 people had to sacrifice 200 people, and not even one of them could be missed, which was a difficult task and even an impossible challenge......

"In any case, our first step is definitely to enter the safe zone."

Fisher frowned, lowered his voice, and said in a volume that only a few people around him could hear, "Although I don't know what that Gantz's 'curse' is, but in any case, that's something to think about later, what we need to do now is to rush into the safety zone, put ourselves in safety first, and then ......think about the rest in the long run."

"You're right!"

Another blonde woman, Jennifer, also lowered her voice, "In any case, real safety can only be obtained in the safe zone, otherwise that monster will target us at any time, and once targeted, we have little hope of escape......"

Hearing this, everyone's hearts suddenly tightened, although they didn't see the whole picture of that monster, but just with the pale giant hand before, it had deeply crushed the resistance of most people, leaving a heavy mark in their minds.

"Could that 'curse' in Gantz's mouth be a special kind of poison gas that will be released as long as our liaison goes to light up the signal tower?"

Just when everyone was silent, there was a sudden sound of doubt on the side.

Fisher looked to the side, only to see that it was a skinny young man who had only been with him for a short time, the young man named John, who was not originally Fisher's bodyguard, but a hacker, whom Fisher had prepared to use against Blackworth's pervasive cyber surveillance.

At this time, the young man named John was fiddling with the liaison in his hand, as if trying to decipher some clues.

"It's also possible that there is some kind of virus."

Fisher thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, BlackWorth is a biotechnology company, and they can even lead the world in developing a vaccine for the black light virus, whether the black light virus is deliberately spread by their company, it can show that this company has the top level of the Federation in biology, and I won't be surprised if they really develop a virus that will cause the whole body to turn into ashes as long as it is contaminated......

"So the more this happens, the more we want to overthrow them!"

Jennifer muttered in a low voice, pale but resolute, exuding a kind of virgin radiance, "I really can't do it, just let me go and light the signal tower, I just hope you can leave smoothly, and then completely crush this evil company!" ”

"It doesn't have to be that way yet."

Fisher frowned, "I don't want any of you to die here, if I can, I want to know from others about the experience of activating the signal tower, and analyze the pattern from it, maybe we can find a way to escape from the signal tower, so as to avoid unnecessary sacrifices......"

Hearing this, everyone fell silent, but they seemed to have a little momentum, and the pace of moving forward seemed to have quickened a little.

In normal times, Fisher, who said such a thing, would definitely be secretly complacent, but today he did not feel any excitement because of this wave of gathering military hearts, and his heart became even heavier.

Because there is one thing that everyone seems to ignore, that is, even if all the signal towers are lit, will the other party really keep their promise and let them go?

Fisher didn't dare to say this idea at all, firstly, there was no point in thinking about it now, and secondly, once he said it, I am afraid that the entire team would no longer have any will to survive......

Thinking of this, Fisher just hurried away, and forced his way through the dense jungle to the top of the mountain.

Along the way, they hardly stopped except to come to the creek to replenish some water, and in this way, they still marched for seven or eight hours, and finally made a road before the sun was about to set and reached the top of the mountain.

Suddenly, an empty and fertile black earth came into everyone's eyes.

It was an open land with a radius of 100 meters, as if it had been bulldozed by an excavator, and there were hardly any plants in sight, only yellow, rotten leaves scattered on the ground, proving that this was once a jungle.

It's just that all the trees in this area at the top of the mountain have been bulldozed by some unknown force......

"Is this the safe zone?"

Looking at the empty top of the mountain, Fisher only felt as if his legs had lost all strength, and he dragged the two blonde women into the safety zone with exhaustion, and immediately collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.

The five people who took turns to open the road in front of them, their clothes all over their bodies were scratched by sharp plants, and the long strips of scratches were covered with red blood marks, straddling everyone's bodies, which looked shocking.

"Look there, Fisher."

After more than ten minutes, everyone felt that they were gradually 'alive', but at this moment, Jennifer on the side suddenly spoke, she pointed to a metallic building in front of her, and said weakly, "What is that?" ”

"I don't know, but it looks like some kind of totem? Or is it some kind of instrument? ”

Fisher narrowed his eyes and looked at the huge totem-like minaret, which had not been visible at the foot of the mountain, and only then did he realize that the minaret was located in the middle of the clearing at the top of the mountain, about ten meters high.

It's not very grand, but on the top of the bare mountain, it's already the most conspicuous presence.

At this time, everyone gradually discovered that not only them, but also more than a dozen people had stopped here in the empty area on the top of the mountain, some of these people were collecting firewood, and some were picking fungi and plants at the edge of the clearing, and using their own means to distinguish whether these fungi were poisonous or not.

With the arrival of Fisher, many people looked at this place in unison, but at this time, there was no longer any fear in the eyes of this group of people, on the contrary, when they looked at Fisher, the former leader, there was a taste of tiger in their eyes.

"Ignore them......"

Fisher took a deep breath, of course he understood the feelings of these people, as the leader of the foreground of the White Ember, although he also had to look at the faces behind the scenes, but on the bright side, he had always been very convinced by everyone.

And the members of the White Ember Organization, except for some real environmentalists, most of the rest are first-class mercenaries, these people who live a life of licking blood only value money, and other than that, what environmental protection, what beliefs have nothing to do with them.

And the problem lies with this group of people.

Fisher found that the people who came to the top of the mountain at this time were all mercenaries, and there were almost no real environmental volunteers, and this group of people not only did not have any respect for themselves, but had already hated themselves because of the disaster.

If it weren't for the huge background behind Fisher, I am afraid that he would have been besieged by angry people in the five days he had been adrift at sea.

Thinking of this, Fisher secretly complained, but he had to put on a calm appearance, occupied a clearing with everyone, and began to repair silently.

"John, you go and gather dry firewood nearby, Joseph, you go and collect fungi and wild fruits, remember not to go too far, the rest of the people will clean up this clearing, beware of poisonous insects in the soil......"

As Fisher issued the order, he looked in all directions, and the area on the top of the mountain was about a circular clearing about a hundred meters in diameter, although it was not actually large, but just by visual view, it was enough for everyone to trim it.

And the most conspicuous thing in the whole clearing is the minaret in the center of the circle.

At this moment, several people were gathered in front of the metal minaret, as if to observe the details of the minaret.

For some reason, when Fisher looked at the minaret, he felt as if someone was watching him, and the shape of the minaret and the patterns on it were tinged with evil.

Just when Fisher was secretly vigilant, several mercenaries who arrived first glanced at each other, seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, and began to walk towards this side.

Fisher subconsciously stood up, and blocked the two blonde women behind him with his subordinates, and said at the same time, "I know what you guys are thinking, obviously Blackwater has gone beyond common sense, and I have planted it, we can be said to be in trouble now, even if it kills me, it is pointless." ”

Fisher spread his hands and said without waiting for everyone to enter, "Moreover, even if you kill me to vent your anger, if you get out alive in the future, you will be hunted down by major consortia, after all, behind the white embers is not only our Oppenheimer conglomerate......"

Hearing this, everyone's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Indeed, there were more than a few of them present, even if they killed Fisher now, they were seen by everyone.

Thinking of this, one of the mercenaries, a small black man, spat on the ground and said disdainfully, "I really wish you died here." ”

With that, he turned and left.

The rest of the people looked at each other, and seemed to be a little hesitant.

"If I can get out alive, you people who help me, I can give you three million dollars each, and even if you die, I can give it to your family."

Fisher continued to speak quietly, "I hope you can go out for a walk, and don't worry that I can't find your relatives, after all, your details are on the records of our Oppenheimer family. ”

Hearing this, the faces of the remaining people also changed slightly, and then two more people turned around and left.

Apparently, these people are not completely hot-headed.

There were only three people left, and although two of Fischer had gone to the jungle to gather supplies, six remained in the clearing.

Seeing this scene, the remaining three had to leave with unwilling faces.

Seeing everyone retreating, Fisher secretly exhaled, and then he could only take one step at a time, I really don't know how many times my identity and status can protect myself, not to mention that there are two burdens that are easy to attract wind......

As he spoke, Fisher stole a glance at the two blonde women, and a look of thought gradually appeared in his eyes.

As the sky gradually darkened, John and Joseph, who had left earlier, also returned, and lit the collected supplies by drilling wood to make a fire, and suddenly smoke rose from the top of the mountain.

After drying his clothes by the fire and eating the fungi, Fisher looked around again, but saw that the number of people on the top of the hill had exceeded a hundred, and from time to time there were new people who were in disarray, Fisher immediately seized the opportunity to gather the hearts of the army, and used the fire and food to gather five of his men.

The mercenaries were almost always alone and wary of each other, which led to Fisher once again being the largest group on the mountaintop.

At this point, Fisher's difficulty was temporarily overcome, and at this time, he was sure in his heart, and ordered everyone to burn the fallen leaves on the ground, and after burning the rotten fallen leaves and damp water vapor here, everyone could live more peacefully at night to prevent the harassment of poisonous insects.

Not only that, but he had the people search for stones, polish them into rudimentary stone tools, and then use these stone tools to dig grooves and lids in the wooden blocks to make containers for storing water.

Only the river halfway up the mountain has a fresh water source on the entire island, and there is no water source at the top of the mountain, so if there is no water storage container, the people will not be able to replenish their supplies.

And Fisher's order, not only his subordinates were carrying it out, but the others also followed suit when they saw it, and suddenly the whole mountain top became lively.

Just as the people at the top of the hill were in full swing, Fisher finally had time to spare, and he walked alone to the minaret, and looked up by the afterglow of the setting sun.

As the sun set, the whole minaret seemed to be dyed a special blood-red, and Fisher walked up to it, touched the pattern on it, and then knocked lightly, and suddenly the whole minaret let out a low humming sound.

This minaret turned out to be solid metal?

"Is it iron, or is it aluminum? Or lead ......"

Fisher picked up a stone and slashed it straight at it, only to find that the minaret was so hard that the sharp point of the stone could not leave a trace on it.

Just as Fisher was trying to identify what kind of metal it was, he suddenly felt a flash of red light in front of him, and those red colors overflowed the patterns on the spire, but when Fisher tried to confirm it, there was nothing.

"Is it an illusion caused by the sunset? Or ......"

Fisher's expression was a little confused, and the feeling of being watched was even stronger.

At this moment, a low roar suddenly came out of the dark jungle, and at the same time, a terrible scream followed, and everyone looked towards the darkness, and a palpitation of the unknown appeared in their eyes.

Obviously, someone has encountered those 'tyrant'-like monsters again......
