Fang Jinyan cautiously walked forward for a few dozen meters, and then carefully observed the fire in front of him.

It looks like the glow of a campfire, the light source point is not very high, and the brightness is also very large.

It's too far away to see what's going on next to it.

"Let's go over and see." Fang Jinyan lowered his voice and said to Filippo.

Filippo didn't dare to speak, just nodded.

So the two of them continued to push forward, closer to the location of the fire.

It wasn't long before they heard the sound of gurgling water, which was obviously very abrupt at the bottom of the sinkhole, which was a little scary.

However, Fang Jinyan was not too surprised, in fact, it is not surprising, most of the sinkholes are actually because of the karst cave landform formed by groundwater, basically every sinkhole, there is groundwater or there has been groundwater underneath.

Groundwater occasionally outcrops the surface, forming creeks.

At this time, Fang Jinyan, who had excellent eyesight, had already roughly seen the situation around the fire.

It looks like a survivor colony! And it's not small!

Fang Jinyan could tell that there were at least a hundred houses made of stone and grass!

And he vaguely saw the figure shaking!

Fang Jinyan was suddenly stunned, how could this be possible?! You know, according to Filippo and others, this sinkhole has always been infested with mysterious monsters, and many people don't go down to the pit at all, but if they accidentally pass by nearby, they will disappear inexplicably, and they guess that they were eaten by monsters.

Therefore, the survivors in this area all think that this is a dangerous area and dare not approach this place at all.

Fang Jinyan can see it. Filippo and the others should not be lying to themselves, and they have no motive to lie to him. To say that Filippo deliberately conspired to make up a story to deceive him for the sake of the Evolution Serum. That couldn't be, after all, he came suddenly. It was not at all expected by Filippo and the others, and they had no idea in advance that he would inquire about these things.

Now it seems that it is either a rumor, or there is something else in it.

"What's wrong, sir?" Filippo was far inferior to Fang Jinyan's eyesight, so he hadn't seen the situation clearly.

"Don't panic, remember to be quiet at all times, understand? ――There seems to be a settlement in front of you, and there are many survivors in it. Fang Jinyan reminded him first. Wait for him to nod before saying to him.

"This ...... That's impossible! Sir, no one dares to settle here! Filippo instantly showed an extremely shocked expression, but because of Fang Yanyan's reminder, his voice was very low.

In fact, if it weren't for Filippo's previous expression, Fang Jinyan would not have brought him over at this moment.

"It's useless to talk about that, let's take a closer look."

Fang Jinyan said a word, and the two of them moved forward slowly.

Soon, Filippo also saw the situation around the firelight, and sure enough, it was as Fang Jinyan said. There really are settlements and traces of survivors!

At the same time, they also saw a small stream, which was obviously made by the previous gurgling sound.

If it weren't for those horrible rumors, this would be a good place to live. The climate is warmer than outside, there are no signs of zombies and mutant beasts, and there is a water source. If you want to build a castle, it's a good choice.

Wrong. There's a big problem with this idea, and that's if it's really that good. There must have been a large number of mutant beasts and survivors stationed here! It is impossible to be like this, with such a lonely settlement!

There's definitely something strange about it!

Fang Jinyan carefully observed the survivors who appeared, they looked normal, their movements were natural, their joints were also very soft, they were not stiff like zombies, they kept shuttling around the settlement, carrying some things in their hands, and they looked busy.

In addition, from their body shapes, hairstyles, and the silhouettes of their clothes, most of which are durable casual clothes such as denim canvas, it is almost certain that they are indeed modern humans, if not native Italians, they should be Caucasian, and not some kind of demons.

However, because of the light and distance, Fang Jinyan couldn't see what they were carrying in their hands, nor could he see their expressions clearly.

Overall, it looks normal, but Fang Jinyan faintly feels a little weird, but if he wants to say what is weird, he said it again for a while, probably an instinctive intuition......

Fang Jinyan was a person who didn't trust his instincts, and he took Filippo with him and continued to approach.

When he arrived at the simple protective fence on the periphery of the settlement, Fang Jinyan could finally see the situation inside in a general way!

These survivors are all Caucasian, and from the comprehensive perspective of appearance and skin color, it is obvious that most of them are southern Europeans.

-- Generally, Orientals are not very easy to distinguish this, just as Westerners are difficult to distinguish between Chinese, Japanese and Koreans, but Fang Jinyan's observation and judgment make him very good at summarizing the facial characteristics of human beings, and some typical racial characteristics will be extremely obvious in his eyes. In fact, more than that, in his eyes, everyone's appearance may be very different every day, which makes Ye Suxue very annoyed, anyway, if her skin is a little drier one day, Fang Jinyan can see the flowers......

In addition, Fang Jinyan also saw many famous Italian clothing brands in them, such as Armani, Prada and Gucci, while there are very few famous brands in other countries.

It is very likely that they are native to Italy.

It's just that Fang Jinyan still feels that something is wrong...... Obviously, it seems to be normal, but he just feels that these people are a little weird.

He carefully identified what the men were carrying, but it was still due to the light, and he couldn't make out it.

It can only be seen that the shape of these things is a little irregular, and the size is not exactly the same, but from the hard work of these people, the weight of these things is not light, and each one is estimated to be twenty or thirty kilograms......

"Let's go over a little bit more." Fang Jinyan lowered his voice to a very low level and said to Filippo.

Filippo nodded hurriedly, in this place, he no longer had a choice, even if he gave up the evolution serum, he would definitely not be able to go back if he left Fang Jinyan, so he could only follow Fang Jinyan.

If it was another place, a settlement of this size, Fang Jinyan would most likely enter it openly, and if the other party did not allow it, he could directly break in.

But inside this sinkhole, he didn't want to startle the snake, especially when he knew that the world-destroying monster might be nearby!

He didn't want to let it know he was looking for it before he found it, he probably wouldn't find it!

It's smart, probably smarter than humans.

So if he was able to act secretly, he would never reveal his whereabouts, even if the other party might not necessarily realize that he was looking for it - after all, he should not know about his rebirth.

……

Fang Jinyan took Filippo and sneaked around the fence of the gathering place for most of the circle, but he couldn't find a good angle to observe the situation inside.

"You stay here for a while, I'll go in and I'll be back shortly." Fang Jinyan said in a commanding tone.

"Sir! …… Okay......" Filippo's first reaction was startled, but he agreed.

Then Fang Jinyan made a leap and easily flipped into the gathering place, he did not use the gravity-free jump, but still did not make any sound, which made Filippo marvel in his heart. In fact, this fence is not very high, that is, about 1.5 meters, and many evolutionaries can jump over it.

But to be able to make no sound at all like Fang Jinyan, it is estimated that few people can do it, and it is necessary to control the force and buffer of the body to the extreme, in order to achieve such a state!

Fang Jinyan used the buildings and tall ferns as cover to get closer to the survivors inside, and the firelight came from here, and at close range, the light could be said to be quite bright.

Before, he could only see the figures and facial features of these people, but now he could clearly see their eyebrows.

Their expressions were very strict—or rather, they had no expressions at all.

They were just busy as fast as they could, and they didn't see any expressions on their faces, and they didn't see any communication.

It feels like a group of smart people at work......

Fang Jinyan finally knew that something was wrong! They are so quiet! Not a single person spoke!

Fang Jinyan had observed them for so long, and he had seen at least fifty or more people in total, but he hadn't seen a single person speak!

This is so abnormal!

Even when zombies are moving, they often roar in their throats!

But they didn't have it at all, they didn't even open their mouths!

So Fang Jinyan paid special attention to their eyes, and there was no redness and swelling in the eye circles.

"Strange, what's going on? Could it be a cult? ”

Fang Jinyan thought in his heart, it was not uncommon for him to have this association, cults were prevalent in these years, and there were cult organizations everywhere.

In his previous life, Fang Jinyan even saw a cult that cut off all the tongues of all its followers, because in their so-called religious scriptures, it is a deception to think that human beings can speak.

In fact, the fundamental reason is that the cult leader himself is a stammerer and has been discriminated against since he was a child, so he is psychopathic......

In addition, there is a cult that strictly enforces asceticism and requires all male followers to be castrated......

It is such two strange religions, and as a result, they can both develop into a hegemon, with thousands of followers.

It can be seen from this that in this world, anything can really happen, and nothing is unusual.

It's just that Fang Jinyan still feels that these people are too weird, and he inexplicably feels that they don't look like living people...... (To be continued......)
