Volume 1: The Eternal Night Chapter 4: The River Valley (Part II)

Qin Ziyao put his hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist, and there were only sand and gravel and two cliffs around him.

This is the fastest shortcut to Barrier 80, a forbidden place for exiles, as it is right next to the border of the Mutant Territory.

Every year, many people who think they are strong cross this dry river valley and end up losing all traces.

The wind rose, and the smoke from the south gradually blew away to the north, and the canopy became cloudy, like a dirty cloth.

Qin Zi looked far south, the land of eternal night, where there were traces of his conquest, and he was destined to return.

A winged lizard above the canopy let out a sharp whistling and swooped downward.

Qin Ziyao pulled out the war knife with his backhand, and the blade slashed, and the winged lizard tilted, falling to the ground and raising a puff of dust.

A short distance away there was a loud roar of shotguns, and Takuta walked with an old M870 on his clothes, stained with blood.

"You're hurt?" Qin Ziyao frowned.

"Two ghosts, I don't know why they appeared in the river valley." Takutaan shrugged, trying to make a relaxed expression.

"Come and take care of it, otherwise it will be dangerous if the wound becomes infected. Hell, didn't Uncle Chang say that ghosts only appear in the land of eternal night?" Qin Ziyao pulled open his backpack, took out alcohol and bandages, and looked at Takutaan's lower abdomen, where the flesh was blurred, and the shredded clothes had been embedded in the flesh.

Qin Ziyao pulled up Tata's shirt, and the girl's lower abdomen, which should have been flat and smooth, now had a huge scar, which was thrilling.

Ordinary girls would either blush or be so fast at this time, but Takutaan just gritted her teeth and watched Qin Ziyao help her sew up the wound with pig intestines.

The canopy is getting darker and darker, and it is very unusual in this season. With the stitches finished, Takutaan tried to take two steps, fine beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"Come on." Qin Ziyao put away his combat knife, took the shotgun, and squatted down.

Takutaan climbed onto Qin Ziyao's back and squinted happily, after losing her memory, this person who could make her feel close was already her last support.

Qin Ziyao carried Takutaan on his back and two huge backpacks on his chest, and ran in the direction of the cave on the map.

Carrying more than 100 kilograms and running 10 kilometers, even a god-killer would feel extremely difficult. Qin Ziyao didn't stop to rest, and the winged lizards that rushed down from time to time were all repelled by him with guns, but they didn't fight, they just lowered their heads and ran wildly.

The river valley is nameless, but it is a natural boundary between the territories of nearby aberrant species. Once upon a time, it was a beautiful scenery next to a human city, but now it has become a graveyard for the powerful of mankind.

There was a roar all around, and the figure of the aberrant swayed above the stone wall like the most horrific nightmare in the world.

Beneath the stone wall are the bones of many human beings, who are not blind to death.

Qin Ziyao found that his hands began to tremble, and these sounds evoked the most terrifying images in his memory, which was under a black canopy, carrying a lifeless girl on his back, walking in a deserted wasteland.

Who is that girl? It certainly wasn't Takutaan, because he buried the girl in the ground with his own hands. But Tata must have been beside him at that point, and he could find that familiar feeling.

As he thought, he raised his hand and pulled the trigger, and a human-faced red-backed spider creeping down from the stone wall turned into a disgusting stump in the flying sand.

The situation was very dangerous, the bullets in the gun were gone, but he didn't have time to put down Takutaan and reload with new ones.

Not far away, an abrupt iron door appeared on the stone wall, embedded in the stone, and a few large broken characters were written on the door in white paint.

Qin Ziyao rushed to the door with all his strength, and entered the password on the instrument next to him according to what was written on the map, and the door opened with a piercing grinding sound.

It was dark inside the door, Qin Ziyao turned on the flashlight and put down Takutaan and his backpack, and looked inside.

He was a little surprised to find that the space was very large, and there were many unknown instruments and workbenches in the gray cement room, and a large number of tools were piled up.

The people inside left in such a hurry that it was as if they had disappeared at the same time as they were at work.

"Brother, there's a light here." Takutaan's voice rang out on the left. For a moment, the room lit up with a soft white light.

Qin Ziyao curiously flipped through the documents scattered on the table, and looked at the date on it in surprise, 2123!

This is a laboratory from 100 years ago!

Most of the records in the documents he couldn't read, such as the ruins of a former civilization, the nuclear fusion furnace, and a man named Elvis, all of which he couldn't understand.

Most of the equipment has lost its effectiveness over time and is covered in a thick layer of dust.

Qin Ziyao took out the canned food from his backpack and ate it with Takutaan. It occurred to him that after a hundred years, why is there still oxygen here?

After he finished eating the canned food, he said to Takutaan, "It's a little strange here, you wait here." ”

With that, he picked up his shotgun and walked deeper into the room.

There were many pipes hanging from the ceiling of the room, some of which were inexplicably broken or shattered, as if someone had broken it from the inside, or as if someone had shot at the pipes from the outside.

At the end of the room is an iron gate, which opens up into a long and narrow corridor.

Qin Ziyao turned on the flashlight and found that all the lamps on the ceiling were broken, and there were still messy scratches on the wall.

Aberration? Qin Ziyao thought that this possibility was very small, these traces were very ancient, if it was the work of the distortion species, it would be impossible for the dust here to be so intact.

A door appeared again at the end of the corridor, and Qin Ziyao pushed it but didn't push it, as if it was locked from the inside.

Looking around, there is a vent at the top of the corridor, and the lid is lifted and placed inside the vent.

Qin Ziyao bit the flashlight, picked up the gun, jumped hard, grabbed the edge of the vent, and leaned in.

He put the gun on his right hand and crawled inside, surrounded only by the sound of him moving.

There seemed to be a slight flow of air in the pipe, Qin Ziyao took off the poison filter and looked at the vent cover in front of him.

Not far from the lid was an opening below, and Qin Ziyao estimated that this was the location of the room that was originally locked.

It was dark under the opening, and as he climbed closer, the vents seemed to have been destroyed, with sparse pieces of cement and openings created by bullets, and the iron bars of the vent cover showed an eerie bend.

Qin Ziyao took the flashlight and stretched out his hand to shine it downward, and he could vaguely see that this seemed to be a dormitory or dormitory, and a double-layer iron plate bed was rusty, and it was stained with dried blood.

Qin Ziyao's heart began to beat uncontrollably, and with the movement of the flashlight, a corpse suddenly appeared, lying on the side of the bed, and the rotten body was broken into two sections.

He clutched a grenade in his hand that he hadn't had time to pull the tab.
