Chapter 89: The Wind Blows
All the survivors of the reinforcement regiment were excited, but Zhou Yan and the others still maintained a certain degree of vigilance.
"Don't rush forward, don't forget, we have two platoons of pathfinders, exploring the way in the direction of Nanjing, but we haven't come back yet." Zhou Yan reminded loudly.
Tao Jinyong nodded: "Yes, you have to be careful." ”
Then, Tao Jinyong and Zhou Yan led the team, and a platoon of fighters drove the vehicle in the direction of the Laoshan Tunnel. Two kilometers away, in the blink of an eye.
At the entrance of the Laoshan Tunnel, a long wreck of a car lined up on the side of the road. It seems to have been burned by fire, and only the scrap metal frame remains.
"Over there, it's our car! A battalion and a platoon of BAIC warriors! The driver directly saw the tunnel mouth, and a BAIC Warrior crashed into the cement pillar at the tunnel mouth.
The discovery of this car immediately made everyone excited about finding the organization, like a basin of cold water.
Completely extinguished.
Zhou Yan's eyes stared at the car carefully, searched around, and did not see any living creatures emitting heat. The ear wheel radar group cooperated with the all-information tactical ring, and did not scan any abnormal data.
The convoy crossed the wreckage of the car and came to the mouth of the tunnel.
Zhou Yan got out of the car directly and walked towards the BAIC Warriors.
"Hey, Captain Zhou, be careful." Tao Jinyong didn't get out of the car, stuck his head out of the car window, and shouted, he was just an ordinary person, he hadn't touched a gun much, and he was very sorry for his life.
Zhou Yan walked quickly to the BAIC Warrior who crashed, and the window glass of the BAIC Warrior had been shattered.
There were no survivors inside, but there were a few large pools of bloodstains, and Zhou Yan switched the spectral frequency bands and quickly compared them, and these bloodstains occurred two or three hours ago.
"Two or three hours ago? That is, the pathfinder team sent at noon, as soon as they arrived at this place, the person died. He pondered silently.
Looking inside the tunnel, the right eyeball constantly switches, eventually creating the effect of night vision.
In the entire tunnel, there are a lot of cars, these cars are not wreckage, but basically all glass is broken, and two of them, also BAIC Warriors, judging by the signs of modification, should be the vehicles of the reinforced regiment.
This can basically be judged, and the battalion and platoon sent to explore the road are probably all submerged in this tunnel.
"What killed them?"
"Humans did it?"
"Or did the monster do it?"
"Are the things that killed them the same as the human figures I saw in Laoshan?"
The expression on his face became more and more gloomy, today day, there were too many people dead. In the morning, they passed by the giant insect world, sacrificed sixty-seven people, and at noon, two platoons of pathfinders, one was destroyed in the demon vine world, and the other was destroyed in the Laoshan tunnel. The situation outside is more dangerous than expected.
"Commander Zhou, these ......" The evolutionary warrior beside him looked at the bloodstains in the car, and his face turned pale.
"Either someone made a trap, or it was attacked by monsters, and there are still a few of our cars in the tunnel, I'll go check it out."
Zhou Yan slowed down and walked towards the inside of the tunnel.
Rao is self-detection ability is very strong, and he still feels the yin wind blowing behind him, and goosebumps stand up. Walking up to a few cars, there were blood stains left inside, and a few guns were left behind.
The magazine was not full, it was fired.
"I didn't take the gun away, I didn't take the spare supplies in the car, probably not human." Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he hated the slaughter between humans the most.
"Captain Zhou."
Tao Jinyong's shout came from outside: "Did you find anything?" ”
Zhou Yan replied casually: "Not yet." "Then out of the tunnel and outside, several fighters were checking the vehicle that was hit, analyzing the cause of the crash.
Tao Jinyong smoked a cigarette with a gloomy expression: "What's going on here, Head Zhou, come and see, is there a problem with the organization here?" ”
"I don't know."
"Ugh." Tao Jinyong threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, rubbed his face, and beat the psychoanalysis, "Judging from the map, the distance between the tunnel and the quarry road is 1.5 kilometers, if the first refuge is here on the quarry road, according to normal defense methods, this tunnel is definitely heavily guarded." ”
The location of the First Vault is a valley.
There are two roads that are directly connected to the outside world, one is the Laoshan Tunnel, and the other is Guangming Road, a detour along the valley.
These two roads are the only way to enter and exit the first shelter, and according to common sense, the Eastern Theater will definitely send troops to guard the tunnel mouth to ensure smooth entry and exit.
But now, it has been clearly deserted for a while, and there are a lot of leaves on the road, and it seems that there are not many cars.
"Let's put the matter of the first vault aside, now the question is, who killed our pathfinders, the supplies on the car are intact, it doesn't look like it was ransacked, I suspect it's a monster." Zhou Yan said.
"Well, it should be a monster, let's see if we can find footprints around."
At that moment, Tao Jinyong began to command the personnel to search closely at the mouth of the tunnel, looking for all suspicious clues. Zhou Yan is also looking for it, but he mainly looks at it.
The bloodstains on the car, the bloodstains on the ground, were his primary targets.
Soon see where the bloodstains on the car stretch to, in the mountains to the west. Zhou Yan climbed along the bloodstains and found clear footprints.
"Come over and see the footprints."
Tao Jinyong and the others hurriedly ran over to see the footprints found by Zhou Yan, which were footprints on soft soil, very clear, larger than the palm of a human hand, showing the shape of three claws like a bird's claws.
"Do you know the footprints of these animals?"
"Chicken feet?"
"It's very similar to chicken feet, I raise chickens in my rural hometown, and the marks of chicken feet are like this, but it seems that the marks of chicken feet are thinner, and this claw is thicker, so it should not be chicken paw prints...... Could it be a mutated chicken paw print? ”
"It shouldn't be, if you mutate, the body size will increase, and the proportions shouldn't change."
"Maybe it's a deformity?"
Everyone talked about it, but in the end, nothing came out of it, only that the people of the pathfinder team must have been attacked by monsters, and they were all killed and taken away.
A haze hangs over the crowd.
Expectations for the First Vault have come to naught.
"Could it be that the people of the First Vault, like us, migrated to escape this monster?"
"I think it's strange that Head Zhou saw people on the mountain over there before, and even cigarette butts were left. Why don't the people there migrate away, aren't they afraid of this kind of monster? ”
"Maybe they collapsed the tunnel and abandoned the road."
"Then they are too unparticular, this road has been destroyed, and the signs at the highway intersection have not been changed, which is not shallow!"
"If you just give up, with the attitude of rescue in the Eastern Theater, it is impossible not to change the signs, I am afraid it is more likely that they have migrated away. Where there is a first shelter, there will be a second shelter, and perhaps they will be forced to retreat to another shelter. Tao Jinyong analyzed.
"In this way, the danger here is so great that even the Eastern Theater of Operations can't stop it."
"The danger of another world is big and small, and there must be a very dangerous other world around here!"
One of the warriors couldn't help but curse: "What a world! ”
Suddenly, Zhao Hai made a silent gesture, put his hand on his ear, listened carefully, and after a few seconds, he said solemnly: "There is movement, approaching me!" ”
Frightened, Tao Jinyong immediately shouted: "Be alert, be alert!" In a panic, he pulled out his pistol and looked around as if he was facing a great enemy, but the monster with chicken paw prints had already destroyed a platoon of soldiers.
The other fighters clenched their guns in their hands.
Zhou Yan also pulled out two 92 pistols and looked around nervously.
For a moment, the atmosphere froze.
Everyone waited cautiously for the monsters that might appear.
