Lu Cheng didn't expect Liu Mengyang to appear here.

The number of their convoys was much smaller than that of their own side, and the number of survivors was only thirty.

In addition to Liu Mengyang, Cai Yong was also followed.

The thirty of them were also heavily armed, armed with guns, most of which were pistols.

And half of the personnel on Lu Cheng's side are already equipped with rifles, including Lu Cheng himself.

Lu Cheng quickly led a group of people to wait, walked towards the front, and said.

"Professor Liu, how did you get here?"

Lu Cheng didn't think that Liu Mengyang was bringing people for a ride.

If you can get here, it's likely that you came to the secret research institute.

When Liu Mengyang saw Lu Cheng, he was very surprised and said:

"There's a research institute nearby, and I'm bringing people here to bring some research materials and equipment back."

Liu Mengyang can accurately say the research institute, which shows that Lu Cheng's guess is eighty percent correct.

I heard Liu Mengyang ask strangely:

"But Lu Cheng, why are you here?"

Lu Cheng quickly replied.

"Officer Xu had an accident here, and I brought someone over to look for her."

Lu Cheng didn't hide it, he felt that Liu Mengyang might know something, and continued.

"We found a suspicious hole here, there are some dark green blood stains in the hole, and we suspect that Officer Xu may have been lost in the hole."

After Lu Cheng finished speaking, Liu Mengyang raised his eyebrows.

"Dark green? Where, take me to see it. ”

Liu Mengyang hurriedly walked forward, and Lu Cheng took him all the way to the edge of the cave, and Cai Yong and some of them also followed the side.

After Liu Mengyang saw the hole in front of him, he suddenly became excited, and even his hands trembled a little.

This Liu Mengyang must know some inside stories!

Although Liu Mengyang was excited, he still hesitated:

"To tell you the truth, Brother Lu Cheng, I only recently learned about the existence of this institute.

It seems that some experiments are being done on modified organisms, and this hole was most likely created by one of their research targets.

As for Officer Xu, I can't guarantee that she's still alive, but this created creature should still be nearby. ”

Lu Cheng frowned and asked:

"Professor Liu, how can you be sure of this?"

Liu Mengyang pushed his glasses and said:

"In this experimental project, all the creative creatures will have chips on their bodies that restrict their movements.

Their range of activity is limited to the area within which the research facility is built, and they will not be able to leave unless the chips run out of power. ”

Lu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then looked around.

The surrounding area is full of dense forests, and the ground movement appears here, which means that it is underground, and it is likely that it is also within the scope of the research institute.

So where is the entrance?

Lu Cheng looked at Liu Mengyang, this person must know.

After thinking about it, Lu Cheng said:

"Professor Liu, since you're here to search for research equipment in the institute, why don't we work together? By the way, help us find the location of Officer Xu. ”

Although Liu Mengyang didn't know Lu Cheng's strength, looking at Lu Cheng's nearly fifty heavily armed survivors, Liu Mengyang nodded without thinking.

"Okay, we survivors should help each other. All I need is the data and equipment, and you can take the rest. ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to Cai Yong and said:

"Captain Cai, lead the way, it's a good thing to have more people."

Cai Yong didn't think much about it, and quickly nodded and said:

"Of course it's a good thing, come on, come with me."

Cai Yong waved his hand and walked in front with people, he was obviously not the first time to come here, and he was quite familiar with the surrounding environment.

They were too quick to say yes.

Lu Cheng kept an eye on it, and a group of nearly 100 people followed Cai Yong and walked towards the depths of the woods.

The woods at night, although dark and quiet, did not see a single zombie.

Coupled with the strong light of dozens of flashlights, shining back and forth in the woods, it can be said that the sense of security is directly full.

After about five minutes of walking, I saw a path.

The group continued along the trail for about two kilometers.

After passing through a dense grove of trees, a large clearing suddenly opened up in front of me.

Above the open space stands a rather old Western-style building.

The Western-style building is built in the Victorian style with a blue stone façade.

Lu Cheng could clearly see the spire and the roof composed of window sheds.

These minarets dot the corners of the building and are covered with gloomy tiles that make the estate even more eerie.

The exterior walls of the Western-style pavilion are covered with large arched windows, decorated with iron railings and window lattices.

The most striking feature is a large stone arch with a lion carved above it.

Liu Mengyang looked at the manor in front of him while looking at his mobile phone, turned his head and said to Lu Cheng.

"This is the entrance to the secret research institute, if we can find the console, we can locate the location of the ground worm, and even control it."

After Liu Mengyang finished speaking, he hurriedly added:

"The earth worm is the name of the monster that created the hole in the ground."

Lu Cheng nodded and did not reply.

Liu Mengyang walked directly to the front of the arch, and then looked at his mobile phone while entering the password into the arch's electronic device.

When the code was entered, the arch rattled, and then the door opened.

Gu Ming didn't expect this arch to have this effect, and said in surprise:

"I didn't expect this thing to be an electronic gate, but why set up an electronic door here?

Aren't there walls on the sides? You can just flip it over. ”

Liu Mengyang hurriedly shook his hand and said:

"These walls are electrified, so don't touch them.

This secret laboratory is all powered by solar electricity, and as long as the solar panels are not broken, there is no power outage at all. ”

A person who was about to touch the wall, hearing Liu Mengyang say this, hurriedly retracted his hand, no one wanted to give electricity for no reason.

A group of people entered the manor one after another.

The front yard is beautifully furnished with flower beds, sculptures and stone steps.

There is also a large fountain, but the water in the fountain has dried up, leaving only a mess of fallen leaves to fill the fountain pool.

Along the path covered with lush vegetation, it didn't take long for the group to reach the gate of the manor.

There is no electronic password for this gate, and Liu Mengyang directly pushed the door open.

As the heavy door was pushed open, the lights in the hall suddenly lit up.

Under the lighting, the hall is spacious and tall, and the ceiling height is definitely exclusive to the mansion.

The design of the hall, which also presents Victorian luxury, has a spectacular vaulted ceiling and soaring columns that lead to different directions within the hall.

The walls are decorated with beautiful frescoes, and ancient wallpaper.

Hung with portraits of strange people.

In the center of the hall, there is a wide stone staircase, classical design, and stone columns and stone balustrades that add a sense of grandeur to the hall.

If you don't say that this hall is the entrance to the secret research institute, the first impression is that it is the mansion of a local tyrant.

"Let me think about it, I remember it was here......"

After pushing open the door, Liu Mengyang walked straight towards a mural in the center of the hall.

Talking to himself, he looked around in front of the mural.

"Ah, here."

Liu Mengyang pressed one part of the mural on the mural.

It was clearly a mechanism.

The walls with the frescoes quickly made a noise and were pulled to the side like folding doors.

Behind the walls, there is a hidden elevator.

The elevator button flashed light, and the elevator door soon opened as soon as the wall was removed.

The elevator in front of me is clean and tidy, the lights are bright, and there is not much difference from the elevator in my impression.

Liu Mengyang pressed the elevator door and said behind him.

"This elevator has a load standard, you get on one by one, and if it is overweight, wait for the next wave."

After Liu Mengyang finished speaking, he took the lead in the elevator.

Cai Yong followed, followed by Lu Cheng, Zhang Xiaoyun and Shen Xue.

Gu Ming and Du Zi also wanted to follow, but the three people on Cai Yong's side moved faster.

Soon walked in, and when Gu Ming went in again, the elevator had already sounded an alarm.

Gu Ming, who was helpless, could only retreat and said.

"Then I'll follow the next wave of elevators, how many floors will I stop?"

刘孟阳 says:

"The elevator only has two buttons, you can come in and press the floor below."

Gu Ming nodded, the elevator door closed quickly, carrying Lu Cheng and the others all the way underground.

The lab didn't know how many meters underground, and the elevator ran for several seconds before it finally stopped.

With a clang, the elevator doors reopened.

In front of him was a corridor with white as the keynote, but the moment he saw the corridor in front of him, except for Lu Cheng, Shen Xue and Zhang Xiaoyun, everyone else was stunned.

The aisle in front of me seemed to be covered in some strange flesh and blood.

The flesh and blood was beating like life.

Lu Cheng recognized it at a glance, this was the same thing left behind after the evolution of the baron-level zombies in the barracks and the Central Medical College.

"What is this? It's disgusting. ”

But Cai Yong was obviously seeing this kind of thing for the first time, and the others behaved similarly.

Liu Mengyang didn't say anything, took the lead and stepped off the elevator and said to the others.

"It should be the product of a lab leak, I don't know, you guys go faster, let the others hurry down."

Hearing Liu Mengyang say this, everyone hurriedly got off the elevator.

But just as the elevator was about to close, the overhead light suddenly flickered, and then suddenly went out.

"Holy shit, what's going on with the power outage?"

"Professor Liu came to me."

"Be alert, turn on the flashlight."

A group of people shouted nervously, and one by one the flashlights lit up, shining in all directions.

But apart from the power outage, there was no other movement in the aisle in front of me.

On the contrary, the flesh and blood tissues lying on the wall suddenly shrank after feeling the stimulation of the sudden flashlight.

Disappeared into the cracks of the walls without a trace.

Seeing the strange scene in front of them, everyone was stunned and didn't dare to say a word.

Soon, with a blink of light bulbs, the lights came back on.

"It's coming!"

Cai Yong breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked back at the elevator behind him, he was stunned.

Although the lights in the corridor were on, the lights in the elevator were still pitch black, and the elevator did not respond.

"It's over, Professor Liu, the elevator seems to be broken."

When Liu Mengyang heard this, he also hurried to the elevator to check.

Sure enough, as Cai Yong said, the elevator did not react at all.

Lu Cheng took out his mobile phone and had no signal, and then took out the walkie-talkie, but he couldn't hear anything except Sasha's murmur, and there was no response to his words.

"Are there any other exits to get out?"

Lu Cheng looked at Liu Mengyang, and Liu Mengyang immediately nodded and said:

"Yes, there are some, don't panic, there are other exits, you can get out."

Cai Yong and the others were relieved when they heard Liu Mengyang say this.

In fact, Lu Cheng is not afraid of being trapped here, as long as there is an elevator room, Lu Chengcheng can climb all the way to the elevator along the passage.

This is not a problem at all for the current Lu Cheng, Zhang Xiaoyun, and Shen Xue.

Their stamina attribute is already much higher than normal.

Although there were only eight people who came down, there was no way back for Cai Yong and them to return to the ground.

The group of people could only bite the bullet, check their equipment, and then under the leadership of Liu Mengyang, continue to walk along the passage to the depths of the laboratory.

The equipment in this laboratory still appears to be in good condition, with no signs of damage.

However, the flesh and blood just now has shown that the laboratory is not as calm as it seems on the surface.

At least there's a baronial zombie in there.

Everyone still cheered up along the way.

The connection is not very long, about 300 meters away.

There are various small rooms on all sides, and some seem to be lounges, utility rooms, and dining rooms.

However, Liu Mengyang didn't look at the situation in those rooms, and walked along the passage until he walked to a hall, and then stopped.

This hall is not Liu Mengyang's destination, but there is a person standing in the hall.

The man was wearing a lab coat worn by an experimenter.

He stood there motionless, and Cai Yong stepped forward to check it.

An arrow shot from behind him, and it landed directly at the back of the man's head.

Then the man fell to the ground with a thud, and everyone saw clearly that it was a person, a shriveled zombie at all.

It's just that this zombie is a little strange, there is a big hole in front of his skull.

There was nothing in it, which meant that the zombie had died before.

Lu Cheng retrieved the arrow, and saw that there was a notebook in the chest pocket of the corpse, and he quietly put the notebook into his pocket.

Then he looked at Liu Mengyang with a frown and asked:

"Professor Liu, how many people are in this lab? Have they all become zombies like this? ”

In Lu Cheng's cognition, if you want to evolve a baron-level zombie, you need to have enough zombies as its nutrients.

And in this list of laboratory materials, there are all kinds of materials, which can support hundreds of people and live for a whole month.

But Liu Mengyang shook his head and said.

"To be honest, I don't know, I've said it before, and I've only recently learned about this research lab.

But since there are zombies here, everyone should be cautious. ”

Liu Mengyang beckoned, led everyone and continued to walk forward, and it didn't take long to come to a room similar to the center console.

There is a row of computers in the console, and behind the computers is a large transparent window.

Below the window is a huge experimental field about 10 meters deep and nearly 100 meters long and wide.

On the ground of the experimental field, there were all kinds of blood stains, as well as inexplicable limb fragments.

Some look human, and some have huge claws and heads that don't look like people at all.

Just looking at these wreckage, you know that there must have been more than one bloody battle in this experimental field.

When everyone was attracted by the scene of the experimental field behind the glass window, Liu Mengyang didn't seem to see it.

He walked straight to a computer desk, turned it on, and saw that the computer started normally, and he kept repeating it.

"Great, it still works, it still works."

Seeing Liu Mengyang's reaction, there is also a skillful operation.

Lu Cheng knew that he definitely hadn't heard of this institute recently, and he must have been here before the end of the world.

And more than once.

However, Liu Mengyang didn't want to say that at this time, Lu Cheng didn't ask directly.

Wait until you find the monster called the Earth Worm first, and it's best to find Xu Jingqiu before you talk about anything else.

After turning on the computer, Liu Mengyang quickly took out a USB flash drive and plugged it into the computer.

Then he began to transfer all kinds of data on the computer to the USB flash drive.

He apparently came for this information.

It's just that half of the information has just been transferred, and it hasn't arrived.

The computer suddenly pops up with a red warning pop-up box, and then automatically executes the formatting program.

Looking at the sudden scene in front of him, Liu Mengyang stood up suddenly, holding the computer screen and shaking vigorously.

"Don't, don't, I have permission! I have permission! ”

This time, not only Lu Cheng frowned at him, but even Cai Yong and the three survivors behind him couldn't help but frown and look at Liu Mengyang at this time.

One of them even said directly.

"Professor Liu, don't worry about these research materials now, and quickly lead us to find our way up. How many of us are there? There are zombies coming, and they are all going to die. ”

Professor Liu changed his previous gentle and reserved appearance, his eyes widened, the blue tendons on his face exploded, and he turned his head and yelled at the survivor.

"You know something!"

Professor Liu's sudden anger made everyone stunned for a moment.

And Professor Liu also felt that his emotions were out of control, so he quickly raised his hand and rubbed his face, and said:

"I'm sorry, I've been too nervous to do research these days, so I'm here to find a way to leave."

After all the data in the computer was formatted, Liu Mengyang regained the control of the computer, and he opened a software.

You can clearly see that in the software, it is a mini-map of this secret research institute.

There are many more that can be controlled, fork control mechanisms and so on.

"I'll take a look at the nearest passage up, I need to pass through this proving ground, I'll open the door first."

After Liu Mengyang's operation, the doors at both ends of the experimental field opened in a burst of mechanical sound.

And just as one of the doors had just opened a little gap, a figure tumbled under the iron door into the testing grounds.

Seeing the figure that appeared, Lu Cheng's eyes widened.

Xu Jingqiu!

Xu Jingqiu also saw Lu Cheng and the others in the console, she waved her hand, and there was a panicked expression on her face.

seemed to be shouting something, but Lu Cheng and the others couldn't hear what she was shouting at all.

After confirming that he couldn't hear the sound, Xu Jingqiu pointed behind him, and then rushed towards the other door that was open.

It was as if something was chasing her behind her.

She didn't have to wait long, and the crowd quickly saw what was chasing her behind her.

It was a humanoid monster nearly three meters tall, with dark skin on the top and bottom of its body, and wearing a strange fur coat!

It can be said that if the door of the experimental field hadn't been opened just now, Xu Jingqiu would have collided head-on with this monster behind the door.

Watching Xu Jingqiu quickly pass through the experimental field and escape through another gate, while the monster strode towards Xu Jingqiu, Lu Chengcheng immediately shouted at Liu Mengyang:

"Close the door!"

Liu Mengyang's reaction was still very fast, and he immediately used the console to close the door of the experimental field.

The monster walked to the gate that was closing, although there were still some gaps in the gate, but this monster had no way to get through the narrow gaps, he had to stop, and did not continue to pursue Xu Jingqiu.

The monster, which was nearly three meters tall, slowly raised its head and looked at the console where Lu Cheng and the others were.

His eyes were full of oppression.
