"If anyone appears from the Fog Cave, rember, do not respond, do not speak, do not make contact."
"If you’re confident, shoot them dead right away. Don’t gamble your life on whether it’s a normal person or a monster coming out of the fog."
"If you’re not confident, then..."
Song Hai didn’t finish his sentence, tapping on the isolation net, "For the sake of being colleagues, three long and one short to give a heads-up, thanks!"
"Don’t worry, if we encounter a monster we can’t handle, we’ll definitely signal you."
Cheng Ye was startled inside, suddenly understanding the purpose of Song Hai’s words to him.
Right now, everyone is trapped in the Void Mist, facing the sa unknown situation.
To survive, we must join hands and share information.
"Alright, you’re a good seed among us Eastern People, stay alive and don’t take unnecessary risks."
Song Hai’s voice paused for a mont, but before leaving he quickly added, "Don’t bother warning Wei Lecheng from Zone D, that guy’s a Westerners lapdog, serves him right if he dies!"
Damn.
Even at a ti like this, you still can’t forget about factional disputes. You’re sothing else!
Cheng Ye couldn’t help but feel a bit tense, the nervousness he had been building up now dissipating sowhat.
When he got back to the center of the inspection area.
He couldn’t help but look up, the dense fog almost forming a solid mass, weighing heavily above as if sothing might pierce through it at any mont.
He hadn’t thought about this when he didn’t know the situation before.
But after Song Hai’s reminder, he kept picturing a giant monster falling from above.
Especially the huge monsters over ten ters tall he had seen on the drone before.
"I just hope no real monsters appear, otherwise I’ll have to... go on a killing spree."
He tightened his grip on the pendant.
At this mont, he suddenly had the illusion of holding an Ultraman transformation device.
Besides the heavy feeling of security, there was even a little... excitent?
Ti passed by slowly, minute by minute.
Without Defense Communication to check how much ti had passed, ti felt infinitely stretched, becoming exceptionally long.
Cheng Ye continued to maintain the habit of staying active, warming up whenever he felt his body getting cold.
And he wasn’t foolish enough to stand in the center of the inspection area the whole ti, instead constantly changing his standing position.
As for warning Wei Lecheng in Zone D, he did approach once.
But before the Void Mist appeared, Wei Lecheng had already retreated to the back isolation zone, probably not in the inspection area now.
"Huh, the fog seems to be dispersing?"
After an unknown amount of ti, just after Cheng Ye finished moving his body, he suddenly noticed signs of the thick fog dispersing.
Vaguely, he could already see the inspection passage ahead.
Only when he turned to look back, the fog was still dense, but in any case, this was a good sign.
He quickly walked to the isolation net between Zone B and Zone C.
The two seed to have a tacit understanding, almost simultaneously tapping on the isolation net one after the other.
"Dispersing?"
"Is it the sa on your side?"
After saying these two sentences, they each retreated with tacit understanding, without saying anything more.
Danger often lurks at the mont of a breakthrough.
Before the fog completely dissipates, this is the most cautious mont.
Fortunately, all the worries seed unnecessary, as after the dispersal sign appeared, the fog’s dispersing speed accelerated.
Cheng Ye silently counted, almost every half-minute the fog thinned a bit.
Until the inspection passage was fully visible, a light sound of ’szzzz’ ca from his waist.
Defense Communication, back to normal?
He took out the Defense Communication to check, and the screen indeed lit up, the ti in the upper right corner showing...
2:37 PM!
From receiving the weather warning until now, it had been roughly an hour and a half.
But trapped in this Void Mist, Cheng Ye felt it lasted at least three to four hours.
"Sir, sir!"
Behind him ca She’s urgent call, Cheng Ye quickly turned around, and the fog in the isolation area had also dispersed, revealing blurred silhouettes!
What surprised Cheng Ye was that, centered around the isolation net near him, the guards and staff in the quarantine area had spontaneously ford a semicircle.
In the front, four of Red Mountain rchant Team’s trucks were parked haphazardly, with the carriage gates down, forming a makeshift barrier.
Everyone was huddled together back-to-back, their long guns and cannons all pointed outward, straight towards the direction where the fog hadn’t yet dispersed, their faces still alert with lingering fear.
"You all..." Cheng Ye pressed the isolation gate’s switch, approaching slightly while still maintaining caution.
"Sir! Just now there was movent in the fog!"
She’s voice trembled, pointing to the fog outside the semicircle, "We got scattered, many people are missing, and then sohow gathered here. It was Jin Dafei who said to turn the trucks sideways as a block..."
"What?"
Cheng Ye followed where she pointed, the fog outside the semicircle still dense, but he could vaguely see drag marks on the ground, mixed with dark red stains that stretched into the mist.
"Where’s Jin Dafei?"
"On the truck, he said if a monster cos, he’ll just run it over!"
"What’s the casualty situation?"
"So far... we haven’t found any bodies, but two guards didn’t co over." She’s voice lowered, "We heard strange noises in the fog just now, followed by screams, but... no one dared to go over."
"Good job, holding your ground is how you’ll survive at tis like these."
Cheng Ye nodded slightly, his voice steady, "Tell everyone to hold their position, don’t fire recklessly, wait until you have a clear target."
"Yes!"
She responded loudly, her voice now carrying more confidence.
With Cheng Ye as their backbone, the previously restless crowd gradually cald down, their grip on their weapons steadier.
