As the pungent and unpleasant smell intensifies.

Under the leadership of Meng Lei, the group gradually came to the end of this metal corridor.

However, at this very time.

When the tactical flashlight in Meng Lei's hand shone on the corner at the end.

The crowd suddenly discovered.

At the other end of the corner, completely obscured by the wall.

There is actually a clown costume that can often be seen in the park, clinging to the wall and facing away from everyone.

It was as if there was a person half-crouching there, quietly hiding, trying to wait for everyone to get closer, and suddenly create a fright.

Merely.

The red and white empty sleeves were shriveled and crumpled together, and swayed without wind.

It seems to show from the side that there is no hidden person in the clothes, it is just an ordinary clothes.

A group of people looked at each other, some of them couldn't understand.

No matter how much they think about it, they can't figure out why a clown costume appears inexplicably in such a place?

Could it be that the outpost was having a big party before the accident?

But even if it's a carnival, there's no reason to throw your clothes in the corridor of the passage?

The weird feeling is not strong.

At this moment, there are more doubts in everyone's hearts.

But at this time, no one can answer for them, not even the almost omniscient Meng Lei.

At the time of seeing that clown suit.

Meng Lei was also stunned for an instant.

But his reaction was much quicker than the others.

And he didn't associate his problems with parties or carnivals like everyone else.

The first thought that came to his mind was what the captain of the Ceres had said.

"Those crazy people who wear clown costumes all day!"

Clown suit!

Lunatic!

These two words that Meng Lei remembered deeply were like some kind of key to open the shackles.

For a while, Meng Lei thought a lot.

Could it be that the real reason for the abandonment of this outpost is related to the members of the clown organization?

Otherwise, how can this clown suit be explained?

"Everyone, be vigilant, follow me!"

Didn't think much about it.

Meng Leiping raised the shotgun in his hand and continued to walk forward.

Whatever the truth about the outpost's abandonment, none of that was his concern.

He came here for one purpose.

That's licking the box!

Scavenge for any remaining resources available, then pack them all up and take them away.

Everything else has nothing to do with them.

Pressed for time.

Unless it's troublesome, there's no need to look for those strange things.

With Meng Lei's order, the team set off again.

Six people lined up neatly.

But except for Meng Lei, the bodies of the others were all clinging to the metal wall on the side of the passage.

Try to keep as much safety as possible from the weird clown costume around the corner at the end.

Soon, the narrow metal corridor soon came to an end.

Turning a corner, Meng Lei first cautiously glanced at the situation on the other side of the passage.

After confirming that there was no abnormality, he walked out boldly with confidence.

The glare of the tactical flashlight hit the clown suit in the corner.

Only then did everyone realize that it was indeed just an ordinary clown costume.

The only difference was that it was covered in a large amount of dark brown blood, which made the whole garment crumpled and twisted.

And, the reason why everyone mistakenly thought just now was that there was a person half-squatting here.

It turned out to be the heart of the garment, which was nailed to the wall.

Due to the angle and height problems, it can lead to the illusion of half-squatting.

However, none of this is of concern to everyone.

At this moment, everyone's eyes looked at the top of the clown suit in shock, and there was a sense of fear in the uneasiness.

On the wall there, two hideous characters were written in blood.

"Die!"

The blood was not fresh, it had been coagulated for an unknown amount of time, and it was black overall, with a creepy smell of decay.

Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect to encounter such a strange situation not long after they came in.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

"Who wrote these two blood letters, and why did they nail the clown suit here? What does that mean exactly? ”

"It's horrible, let's ...... Let's go, don't go in......"

……

Filled with words of madness and hatred, it exudes an air of resentment.

Everyone felt a chill in their backs, and an ominous premonition lingered.

Liu Yi was already very cowardly, but now he retreated, hiding tightly behind the people next to him, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

Meng Lei frowned, his eyes looking up and down between the two blood characters and the clown suit.

After a moment, he waved his hand and said:

"This should be some kind of personal vendetta that has nothing to do with us."

As he spoke, he continued to walk forward, motioning for the group to follow.

"Let's go, keep going, don't delay here!"

Meng Lei's attitude was very decisive and resolute, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

Hearing this, Ning Wen and the others looked at each other, with a trace of bitterness on their faces.

The commander has spoken, what else can they do?

So, the group was dripping in their hearts, so they could only go forward.

For a long time, nothing else strange happened.

On the way, there were some passages to other places, and Meng Lei also explored them one by one.

But in the end, I found out.

These passages lead to the dockyard, meaning that they are always on the periphery of the outpost, in the area of the covered bridge in the fringe area.

If you go around like this, the devil knows when you'll be able to get around the mining area.

However, at this time, Meng Lei did not dare to let everyone act separately.

An unknown abandoned outpost, which is similar to the scene of a horror movie.

The law of death applies to everyone.

Therefore, he can only get everyone together and explore together.

It's better to be slow than to die.

Fortunately, as we continued to go deeper, road signs began to appear on the walls of the corridor.

Everyone finally stopped scurrying around like headless flies, and had a clear direction.

Ten minutes later.

After passing through the metal corridor that was as complex as an ant's nest, a relatively large closed hatch finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The sign above the door reads that this is the No. 3 production workshop.

It seems that they should have come to the area of the mining production area.

And as it gets closer.

The rancid smell that had been permeating the hallway was even stronger.

"It doesn't just seem like the smell comes from here, but this area is also one of the sources of the smell."

Huo Ye whispered and gave a rough judgment.

Meng Lei nodded and reminded in the earphones:

"Be vigilant, don't run around later, and listen to my orders to act in unison after you go in!"

Everyone agreed.

Then, Meng Lei held his breath and gently pressed the green start button.

"Crunch".

The hatch shuddered slightly, then slowly opened from the middle to the sides.

However, perhaps it's the power issue.

Less than halfway through the opening, the hatch came to a halt.

There was only a gap for one person to pass sideways, and the stuck there never moved again.

Faced with this situation, Meng Lei did not hesitate.

Turned on the tactical flashlight and looked at the situation inside.

It was found to be a relatively large building.

In the dark, there were some messy equipment, most of which had become parts.

It looks as if he was once violently treated, and everything has been dismantled.

In addition, there are some unknown objects, strangely shaped, scattered on the ground.

Everything was quiet, nothing out of the ordinary.

Seeing this, Meng Lei turned directly sideways and walked in through the gap.

Everyone followed closely and entered the production workshop one by one.

The pungent rancid smell came to my face.

I don't know how long it has been since there has been air circulation here, and the smell is so smoky that people can't open their eyes.

"I'll go, what kind of smell is this, it's more than the dry toilet in my hometown!"

Huo Ye muttered and covered his mouth and nose.

The others also followed suit, and they all looked uncomfortable.

Really, this smell is so bad that it can be called a biochemical weapon!

Meng Lei frowned slightly, held his breath and ordered:

"Look around and see if there's anything useful."

So saying, he walked forward alone.

The glaring tactical flashlight tore through the darkness in the workshop.

The equipment in this building is obviously more decaying than the outer bridge.

The metal deck on the ground is also mottled with a large number of water stains, which looks very damp.

Meng Lei walked all the way forward, his eyes constantly scanning around, hoping to find something valuable.

After all, it was once a mining production area.

It is a place where raw ore is processed and production resources are refined.

The construction and development of the entire outpost is based on this place.

But if they can leave a few boxes of raw ore behind, then they will be worth the trip.

It's a pity.

Meng Lei looked at it for a long time, but he didn't find anything.

All the equipment was destroyed, and even the core was dismembered into countless pieces.

It's like someone once deliberately used this as a vent and used this place as a venting house, and the destruction was quite complete.

In addition, among the scattered parts, he also found some unknown skeletons.

Some of them are so huge that they are as tall as people.

Some are smaller, only the thickness of an arm.

Structurally, it appears to be some kind of fish.

The flesh and blood on it had long since been corrupted, leaving only the white bones of Sensen, which looked extremely terrifying.

And part of the strong rancid smell emanated from the bones.

"These ...... It must have been done by those pirates later, right? ”

"Or is it all the Clown's doing?"

"At least it won't be someone from the Alien Alliance, who would do such a thing as a normal person? It's crazy! ”

Meng Lei complained silently, and his heart became more and more suspicious.

If there were any members of the Clown organization who were involved in the destruction of the outpost.

Then he had no way of judging what had happened here.

The thinking of a madman is something that a normal person can never fathom, and you can't guess what the other person is going to do next.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

While thinking, Liu Yi's exclamation suddenly came from afar.

"Who?! Who's there? ”

Hearing this, Meng Lei immediately walked over quickly.

"What's wrong? What did you find? ”

At the same time, other people who were rummaging through boxes and cabinets in various corners of the house also gathered around.

"What's wrong with Lao Liu? Shocked, who to scare! ”

"What's the situation?"

Liu Yi was a little apprehensive, looked at the hatch that had opened a gap, and said with a pale face:

"Who were you at the entrance? I was like, as if I had seen something running past. ”

"What about the entrance?"

Everyone looked at each other, and then they all denied it.

"No, I'm in there, Brother Wang is with me."

"I'm behind the commander, I didn't get close to the entrance!"

At this time, everyone turned their attention to Huo Ye, because Huo Ye had always been the one who walked behind.

However, Huo Ye also denied it:

"Look at what I'm doing, after I came in, I listened to the commander to look for something, who is still staying at the door!"

Seeing that everyone denied it, Liu Yi's face suddenly became even worse.

"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't!

As soon as I turned my head, the flashlight was shining brightly, and something seemed to be running through the hatch.

It's too fast to see if it's inside or outside, but I can't be wrong! ”

At this time, Ning Wen, a college student, stepped forward, patted Liu Yi on the shoulder, and comforted:

"Lao Liu, I think you're just too nervous, frightened by these fish bones in the house, and hallucinating, right?

Relax, let's all be together, the commander and Lao Huo are still holding guns in their hands, what can't be solved?!

Don't scare yourself, everyone will have a nervous breakdown when you turn around. ”

Liu Yi was very insistent and retorted:

"No, it's not an illusion! I could see very clearly, it was a shadow, about the height of a person! Definitely not an illusion! ”

Ning Wen wanted to say something more, but Meng Lei interrupted him first and said:

"Did you hear a sound other than the shadows?"

Liu Yi thought about it carefully, shook his head and said:

"No, I didn't hear it."

"That's right!"

Meng Lei suddenly said: "The environment here is so quiet, if there is really something, it is impossible to have no sound at all."

You must be too nervous, the flashlight shines on something, and the shadow flashes by, mistaking someone for a moment. ”

Hearing Meng Lei's explanation, Liu Yi finally stopped talking.

But the look of horror on his face still did not subside.

Obviously, he still believes in the persuasion of others, which he has seen with his own eyes.

"Alright, there doesn't seem to be much to explore here, everyone calm down and get ready to go!"

Meng Lei simply dropped a word, turned around and walked towards the depths of this facility.

There, too, was a large hatch that was closed.

A richer flavor comes from within.

If this rotten stench was only caused by fish bones and meat, then Meng Lei would not have the slightest worry.

Because these things are dead and do not pose any threat to security.

At best, it smells bad.

But.

In this unknown environment, he will not take anything lightly.

At that moment, he called all the people over and told them to get ready.

Huo Ye immediately raised the assault rifle in his hand, and Wang Qi also raised the muzzle of the submachine gun and aimed it at the closed hatch.

Meng Lei took a deep breath and stepped forward.

With the sound of "Kacha", a crash sounded.

The metal hatch, which had been dusty for an unknown number of years, slowly opened to both sides.

This time, it was really completely opened, and everything behind the door was exposed.

Suddenly, the stench of substance came to his face like a flood beast.

Everyone couldn't help but put down the masks of their wetsuits one after another, and the stench was isolated from the stench for the first time.

But at the same time, among everyone's headphones, Meng Lei's exclamation suddenly came.

"Holy!"

In order to maintain his image, Meng Lei has not spoken foul language for a long time.

But when he saw the picture in front of him, he couldn't help but shout out in fright.

Snow-white tactical flashlight beam.

As far as the eye could see, there was an indescribable pile of flesh and blood, as well as fragmented corpses.

The corpses were no longer visible, with all sorts of filthy and rotting organs and a large number of bone fragments piled up together.

Faintly, the scales of some fish were visible, as well as the bones covered with spikes.

And more often than not, human joints and ribs.

Thereinto.

There were also large strips of rotten cloth that had been torn to shreds, proving that it might have been some kind of clothing.

Although judging from the degree of decay of these clothes, it must have been soaked in this flesh mill for at least ten or twenty years.

But those fish bones that still have flesh and blood are undoubtedly proof.

Recently, there have been unknown things visiting the area.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Meng Lei almost couldn't help but vomit on the spot.

Even though he has been honed by the shipwreck, his mind is already very tenacious.

But the painted skin parasite is terrifying, and this thing is disgusting.

The two feelings simply cannot be generalized.

At this time, as the hatch opened, everyone around the door also gasped.

Immediately after, Ning Wen was the first to vomit.

Before the hood of the wetsuit could be lifted, it spit directly on his face.

Then there was Wang Qi, who also vomited with Ning Wen.

Fortunately, Wang Qi reacted subconsciously quickly, lifted the hood of the diving suit, and held on to the wall next to him and vomited.

Then, there was another second batch of awakened survivors in the team, named Wu Fei, who also vomited with Wang Qi.

Huo Ye's reaction was relatively calm, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he took a deep breath to suppress the feeling of nausea.

But the shock and fear in his eyes were not concealed at all, and he obviously suffered a great psychological impact.

Only Liu Yi stood there stunned and looked at everything in front of him.

I didn't vomit, I didn't speak, and the whole person was stupid.

There was no trace of blood on his pale face, his eyes were glazed, and he stared ahead, completely transformed into a statue.

"This ...... What the hell is going on?! How did it come to be like this?! Who did it, who did it!? ”

Huo Ye's exclamation sounded.

This middle-aged man in his forties has already completed half of his life's journey and has experienced a lot.

But now, even his voice is trembling.

"Judging from the state of these corpses, it doesn't look like it was caused by sharp weapon cutting, so there is a high probability that it will not be man-made."

After a brief period of shock and adaptation, Meng Lei quickly regained his composure.

Looking closely at the things on the ground, his face immediately became very ugly:

"Perhaps, there is some unknown monster in this outpost, and all of this is caused by that kind of monster!"

Realizing a possibility, Meng Lei's footsteps slowly retreated:

"What Liu Yi saw just now may be true! Let's go, get out of here first, and see if there are any other passages in the house! ”

As he spoke, Meng Lei watched his surroundings vigilantly as he stepped back.

At this time, Ning Wen and the others were about to vomit out stomach acid.

I only felt that the internal organs were constantly twitching, and my head was buzzing.

Hearing Meng Lei's order, several people immediately dragged their limp limbs, held on to the messy equipment around them, and staggered backwards.

They didn't want to stay here any longer.

The scene in front of him is countless times more terrifying than the scene of the fierce eucalyptus!

But at this moment.

Liu Yi, who had not reacted at all, suddenly jumped up from the ground as if he had gone crazy, and shouted hysterically:

"Monster! There are man-eating monsters! Help, help! ”

While shouting, Liu Yimeng turned around and ran towards the entrance when he came.

Meng Lei's heart immediately tightened, and he immediately shouted:

"Danger! Stop him! ”

But at this time, the limbs of the other people who all vomited and went weak.

Not to mention running, it's not easy to even barely stand, how can you catch up with Liu Yi, who is walking like a fly.

But Meng Lei was too far away from him, and when he found out, it was too late to stop him.

Perhaps it is fear that brings out the potential in the body.

Even wearing a heavy diving suit, Liu Yi's footsteps were fast, and he opened a considerable distance from everyone in the blink of an eye.

"Commander, what should I do? What now?! Huo Ye asked anxiously.

"Chase!"

Meng Lei said as he ran: "The black shadow that Liu Yi saw just now, Bacheng is that monster, and now he is running towards the entrance, isn't he looking for death?!" Hurry up and chase him back! ”

"Ah...... This! ”

Hearing this, everyone felt a chill rush to their heads!

Monster?!

There really are monsters!

And right behind them?!

Panic took over all thoughts, and at that moment, the brains of several people were all blank for a moment.

Only Huo Ye reacted the fastest, followed closely behind Meng Lei, and strode forward, trying to stop Liu Yi.

When the others came to their senses.

As soon as he looked up again, he saw that Liu Yi had already run far away, and was about to reach the entrance of the hatch with the hatch ajar.

The snow-white light of the tactical flashlight swayed wildly in the darkness.

Everything is in the shadows.

Liu Yi's frantic shouting drowned out all other sounds in the headphones.

At this moment, he could no longer hear the speeches of Meng Lei and the others.

There was only one thought in my head.

That's to escape!

Escape from this terrifying place!

"Liu Yi! Stop, come back! It's dangerous there! ”

Meng Lei yelled desperately, trying to awaken Liu Yi's consciousness.

But no matter how much he shouted, this meeting would be in vain.

At the same time, it was the moment his voice fell.

Liu Yi had already run to the door, wearing a thick diving suit, and he was about to drill into that gap.

But at this time, a sudden feeling of the heart came to me.

Meng Lei couldn't explain where that feeling came from, like a creature's special instinct for danger.

He immediately instinctively stopped his steps, and then raised his hand to shine the tactical flashlight in Liu Yi's direction.

I saw that behind the gap in the hatch that was only about fifty centimeters wide, a huge black shadow suddenly burst out!

It was about the same height as a human at first.

But when it stands upright, it is at least more than two meters in size!

The snow-white light hit the monster, clearly reflecting its full picture.

All of a sudden, everyone was dumbfounded.

Liu Yi had already come to the door at this moment, and was about to squeeze out through the crack in the door, so to speak, he was the closest person to the monster.

A huge black shadow appeared in front of him, and he instinctively looked up.

Then, he was so frightened that he couldn't move anymore.

It's a completely unnamed monster that resembles a mermaid.

However, it is countless times more terrifying than a mermaid!

It is about two and a half meters tall and has a huge size, like a sumo wrestler.

If you count the length including the tail, the overall length can reach nearly three meters!

The dark brown skin was full of folds, and the whole body was covered with festering marks like pus, as if it had been rotting for a long time, just dug out of the earth.

On the huge skull, which was more than 30 centimeters in size, there was a row of deeply sunken eye sockets under the forehead.

Among them, there are four scarlet eyes side by side, each of which is the size of a fist!

Under the illumination of the flashlight, it emits a terrifying and terrifying red light.

And the most frightening thing is that in his hideous huge mouth, where his chin is almost completely disconnected from his head, there are two rows of fast and short fast, but extremely sharp fangs and sharp teeth, and a hideous bulge like buckteeth!

Especially on its tongue, it is also covered with spikes, like a mace!

This feeling has a certain similarity with the parasite of painted skin.

But comparatively speaking, its huge size is more intimidating than the painted skin parasite.

This is a terrifying monster that is enough to scare ordinary people stupidly just by its appearance.

Liu Yi stopped drilling outward, stared blankly at the saliva that kept flowing from the monster's mouth, and just had time to subconsciously swallow his saliva.

The next second.

A fishy wind blows in your face.

In the frightened eyes of Meng Lei, Huo Ye and others.

The monster's huge, terrifying head poked into the crack of the hatch in an instant.

In one bite, all the parts above Liu Yi's collarbone, including his head, were bitten in his mouth!

The sound of the glass shattering of the wetsuit mask, accompanied by Liu Yi's terrible screams, sounded in everyone's headphones.

Liu Yi instinctively grabbed both sides of the hatch with his hands and struggled desperately.

"Ah......hh Help me! Commander, Lao Wang, Xiao Wu, save ......"

The heart-rending cry of pain made the scalp of the listener tingle.

But it only lasted for a second, and Liu Yi's voice completely weakened, and the strength of the struggle gradually became smaller.

The terrifying licking sound replaced Liu Yi's miserable howl.

It's not hard to imagine what the monster's mace-like terrifying tongue is doing at the moment.

And with Liu Yi losing his resistance.

As soon as the monster raised its head, it directly dragged Liu Yi's body out.

Then in the hallway outside the entrance door, I feasted.

Such a bloody and terrible scene suddenly made everyone look stupid.

A big living person who was still alive just now, in the blink of an eye, said no, it was gone?!

The incomparably strong visual impact made Huo Ye, Ning Wen and the others feel numb for a while.

Especially Ning Wen and the others, their legs and feet were weak and they couldn't stand steadily.

Now he simply sat down on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

Huo Ye was relatively fine, at least he didn't collapse, but his face was also pale and he was greatly stimulated.

Of all the people, only Meng Lei remained calm.

Although he had never experienced such a scene, the horror of what he had experienced was not necessarily weaker than this.

Especially, the moment he saw this monster just now.

Goldfinger also gave a hint in time and pointed out the monster's weakness!

(The Grey Algae Creeper, a small but relatively agile deep-sea monster, is one of the very few monsters capable of reaching the interior of a submarine.)

They tend to live in groups to compensate for their individual vulnerabilities, and are not difficult to deal with because they are not protected by any shell or armor.

In a spacious activity space, an appropriate amount of light weapons can easily solve it! ）

After digesting the cues given by the system.

Meng Lei's heart, which was still hanging just now, gradually let go.

At present, in their team, the firepower is barely sufficient, in addition to firearms, there are more than a dozen grenades.

As long as light weapons can solve it, it is not a big problem.

"This ...... What the hell is this monster, too...... It's horrible......"

"Liu Yi! Liu Yi was eaten by that monster! Commander, Liu Yi was eaten! ”

At this time, Ning Wen's frightened roar in the earphones overshadowed the monster's chewing sound.

Meng Lei knew that this monster was easy to deal with, but the others didn't know it, and they all lost their combat effectiveness.

"Shut up! I saw it, all calm me down and stand up! ”

Meng Lei let out a low snort, forcibly boosting his morale.

"It's just a crispy monster, don't be intimidated by its appearance! We have guns in our hands, and we're afraid of a hammer! ”

While speaking, Meng Lei strode forward directly.

At the same time, he didn't forget to tell Huo Ye, saying: "Old Huo, give me cover, and provide fire support if necessary!" ”

“…… Good! ”

Huo Ye was also cowardly, but seeing Meng Lei rushing forward murderously, he could only forcibly muster up his courage and follow behind with a gun.

Heavy footsteps echoed through the dark factory.

Meng Lei held the shotgun in both hands and walked to the vicinity of the entrance hatch step by step.

The constant sound of footsteps attracted the attention of the monster outside the door.

After discovering that there were other prey, the terrifying monster immediately gave up on Liu Yi, turned his head and rushed to the side of the hatch, trying to bite Meng Lei to death.

However, the gap in the hatch, which was not wide, did not allow the monster's huge body to pass through.

So the creeper was stuck in the crack of the door, hooking his head and squeezing desperately in the direction of Meng Lei.

A familiar scene, extremely familiar.

The corners of Meng Lei's mouth grinned, and without saying a word, he directly raised his gun and pulled the trigger at the monster.

"Bang!"

A loud explosion rang out in the dead silence of the outpost.

Countless dense steel balls shot out in an instant, and all of them were directly embedded in the creeper's body.

Dark green blood splattered everywhere, staining everywhere.

The creeper didn't kill him right away after he took the blow.

Instead, he struggled desperately and screamed heartbreakingly.

The cry was extremely penetrating, and Meng Lei felt a tingling pain in his eardrums while wearing a wetsuit hood.

He wasn't going to give the monster a chance to breathe, and he raised his gun again, and was about to pull the trigger at once.

But at this moment.

As the badly injured creeper let out a terrible roar, the sound continued to stir up in all directions.

In the darkness of the distance, it was as if something had been alarmed.

The next moment.

Just listen to the many piercing screams, which sounded wildly from the darkness in all directions.

The entire abandoned outpost boiled in an instant!

This sudden change made even Meng Lei stupid for a while.

He suddenly remembered that in the hint given by Goldfinger just now, it was clearly said that this kind of monster seems to be gregarious!

Suddenly, a heart that had just sunk was raised to his throat again.

Meng Lei shuddered, realized a possibility, and took a breath of cold air in horror.

"I'll go! This whole outpost, can't it be this thing's nest?! ”
