29. Attrition

Lin Zhan didn't speak, but pointed inside and let him see for himself.

Li Bayi looked around him and looked inside the cave, and found that it was not very real, so he took off the night vision device. This time he saw it.

There is a light source ahead.

Near the past, there was a torch stuck in the crack of the cave wall, burning with a crackling sound. Illuminates a piece of range. There is a torch every ten meters.

There are no traces of orcs, but there are torches, indicating that these orcs have higher intelligence than they and others think.

The two missing female team members are likely to be inside, and Lin Zhan and his party are going to break in anyway. Hiding in the dark, everyone came to the firelight one after another, reflecting the solemn faces of everyone.

That is, with intelligence and physical strength, this battle is estimated to be difficult to fight. The flare in a small area has a miraculous effect, but the people in it are inside, and the orcs are not doing much, and the two women are scorched first. This method does not work.

Walk down the winding and rugged cave into the interior, rarely encountering any traces of orcs along the way. Soon this passage came to an end, and suddenly it opened up in front of me.

The cave is wide, much larger than half a football field. The extremely high top gives everyone the illusion of shrinking themselves. Stalactites hang upside down, and torches are inserted in various places to illuminate the caves. The orcs have no sense of hygiene, and all kinds of bones and debris are piled up on the ground, and the color is dark. There may also be feces.

Roughly swept through the cave environment, and when he landed on the central bonfire, Lin Zhan's eyes shrank.

A shadow was placed on a wooden shelf next to the campfire. It's too far away to tell. But Lin Zhan confirmed that it was Ye Jingwen, and there was no doubt about it.

Something was roasting on the campfire, and the aroma of barbecue was permeating. The group was in a hurry, and they were all a little hungry. But I don't think much about the flesh of this radiation creature, at most I can smell a few more bites.

The silence re-swelled in his heart, Lin Zhan took a step out of his mind, and was suddenly held down by Li Bayi's shoulder.

He took off his night vision goggles and looked around Nunu. Lin Zhan woke up at this time. Look around. The silence in the cave was eerie, except for the crackling of torches. There was no sign of half an orc.

There can't be no orcs here.

Fraud?!

Eyes were back on Ye Jingwen, who was hanging from the shelf with a straw rope. The head is buried deeply, the messy hair covers the blood-stained face, and life and death are uncertain.

Without recklessness, Lin Zhan changed to a thermal imager. The most obvious is the crimson bonfire in the center. On the side, Ye Jingwen's light was suppressed and almost invisible. But the orange-purple color indicates that she is alive. Lin Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and shifted direction, except for torches, there were no other temperature objects. Orcs are obviously not cold-blooded creatures, so there are indeed no orcs here.

"How?" Seeing Lin Zhan take off the thermal imager, Li Bayi asked softly.

"No problem, save people now." Lin Zhan said, his figure had already rushed to the bonfire in the middle. Li Bayi and others followed closely.

When they rushed to the campfire, Lin Zhan had already separated the straw ropes. Save Ye Jingwen. Lifting the silk, Ye Jingwen was in a coma, her forehead was broken and her face was covered with blood, her thick expedition uniform was worn out, her skin was exposed and bruised, and it was almost foreseeable that she was dragged back by the orcs.

The team dispersed to find Evelyn. Li Bayi, you go to the entrance of the cave to guard to prevent the orcs from blocking us. Quickly setting up Ye Jingwen's arm and carrying it behind his back, Lin Zhan turned his head and gave instructions to the team members.

What made him strange was that. Everyone was silent, and there was a hideous look beneath the bonfire.

"How?" Lin Zhan subconsciously spoke. Turning his head to look at where they were looking.

Then he saw Evelyn.

A wooden stick pierced through Evelyn's back, piercing through her mouth. Bake on a campfire. The oil was roasted and dripped into the campfire.

The corpse was already difficult to discern its appearance, and it was only humanoid when it was roasted, its mouth desperately open, and the charred skin kept her in the painful appearance she had before she died.

The source of barbecue in the cave is their companions.

Wow -

Li Bayi stepped forward and lifted the bracket with one foot. The corpse fell into the fire, and a large mass of sparks floated up like fireflies. The heat swept around in an instant, and no one thought to avoid it.

The corpse was engulfed in a bonfire and disappeared into the flames.

Someone retched.

Others either turned their heads away from looking, or clenched their fists and nails digging deep into the flesh.

Lin Zhan tilted his head. went to see Ye Jingwen's bloodstained side face, and the first thought that popped up in his mind was that Ye Jingwen was fine. Then he repented of his filthy and sinful thoughts.

Ye Jingwen was very lucky, she was a "spare" food, or she was saved by Lin Zhan and others before she had time to be roasted.

"Retreat." Lin Zhan called out to the team members who were standing in place, and turned his head to look at one of the team members: Charles, how many mines do you still have. ”

There was a subtle tremor hidden beneath the flat voice. His mood was not as calm as it seemed.

"Four...... Five. The team member wiped away the retching saliva with his sleeve, and his eyes sparkled in the firelight, and he didn't know if it was due to crying or retching.

"Use them all, and don't keep any of them." Lin Zhan's cold words seemed to make the surroundings lose their warmth, and the bonfire seemed to have turned into paper paste, and no warmth was released.

No one wants to stay and fight the orcs to the death. These people are carefully selected. All of them are the elite of the younger generation in various fields. The idea of the mission is instilled in everyone's mind.

Charles took out the mine and took a few steps to the side to lay it. He had just taken a few steps when an extremely small click sounded, but it was muffled by the crackling of the campfire.

Charles crouched down, set up the mines, and pushed some dirt up to cover the trails. He then stood up and stepped to the side to lay a second mine.

Dididi――

At this moment, an inopportune, rapid dripping sound came from under his feet.

Others subconsciously looked over, and Charles subconsciously bowed his head.

"Get down!" Li Ba's eyes shrank, and he pounced on Lin Zhan beside him. In an instant, a ball of fire burst out from under Zams's feet and devoured Charles!

As the others lay down, a deafening boom echoed through the cave. The mines detonated all the mines on Charles's body, and the explosion shook the entire cave violently, and stalactites fell on his head. Smashed on the crowd.

To avoid accidental damage after being planted, the mine is configured with a shock wave mine instead of a fragmentation mine, which has a small but powerful range.

The crowd was only four or five meters away, and except for Charles, no one else was affected by the mines.

Rubble was splashed, and everyone hugged their heads and curled up to reduce the area. The shaking ground and the rain of rubble made them worry if the cave would collapse and bury them.

Suddenly, a huge rock at the top of the cave was shaken down and smashed on the ground on a team member, and immediately turned into flesh without saying a word, only a pair of arms were exposed outside the rock, still convulsing, and blood flowed. (To be continued......)
