The fortification was exactly the same as the ones they had encountered earlier.
However, Luo Yuan was alarmed as soon as he walked in. He waved his hand to signal everyone to stop. In fact, even if he had not said anything, no one would have dared to go in.
There were spider webs everywhere, and the corners and narrow places were even denser with spider webs. There were also dozens of cocoon-like objects wrapped tightly in spider webs, and a few of them were obviously human.
Luo Yuan tried to step on the spider webs on the ground, but found that they were very sticky. With the strength of an ordinary person, it was impossible to get rid of them. Moreover, it was only his feet. If his body was stuck to it, he might not even be able to get rid of it.
If he went in recklessly, he might even die inside. He quickly left the hall.
Then, he summoned the giant lizard.
It had to be said that ever since its evolution, the Giant Iguana had become a lot smarter. Even its skills now had the ability to "observe the situation". Coupled with the occasional training, it could now roughly understand two-word commands.
For example, 'spit fire'.
The giant lizard shook its head as if it understood. The next moment, it opened its mouth and spat out a powerful flame that swept through the entire hall.
"Boom!" It was as if an explosion had occurred. The entire fortification shook, and the flame even shot out from the gun holes more than two meters away.
In fact, the giant lizard was not a fire type mutated beast like Lao Huang. What it spat out was not fire, but a kind of gas that was stored in its body and ignited upon contact with the air. A large amount of gas was injected into the relatively enclosed fortification, and the effect was not comparable to that in the wild. This was something even Luo Yuan did not expect.
Then, the flame detonated the ammunition piled on top, causing a second explosion. Fortunately, there was not a lot of ammunition piled on top, so the intensity of the explosion was not high. Otherwise, if there were any rockets inside, the whole fortification would have been destroyed.
Even so, Luo Yuan was still shocked by what he saw.
"Wah!" Countless baby-like screams were heard, making everyone's scalp numb. Almost at the same time, a few mutated spiders that were wrapped in flames panicked and tried to escape to the door, but they were all trampled to death by the giant lizard's feet. The only one that escaped was instantly cut in half by Luo Yuan.
A minute later, the clamor died down. A two-meter-deep pit had appeared in the hall. Green smoke curled up from the pit, emitting a high temperature.
The original white spider web had been burned to ashes, and a few piles of mutated beast and human bones were scattered on the ground. It was impossible to tell whose bones they belonged to.
The surroundings were scorched black, and several desks and doors were still burning. The smell of burnt protein wafted out from inside. More than a dozen spiders that did not escape were lying on the ground, their bodies almost roasted. However, their strong vitality prevented them from dying immediately, and they kept struggling and twitching.
At first, Luo Yuan wanted to completely understand them, but he stopped when he thought about it.
Cao Ling's life was still in danger, and these Mutant Spiders were the raw materials to provide her with life force. It saved him a lot of energy.
Not only the first floor, but almost the entire defense structure had been burnt through. Luo Yuan checked carefully from top to bottom and realized that it was too clean. Even the supplies were burnt black. Fortunately, there was an iron door in the basement that was closed, so it was well preserved.
Luo Yuan split the basement open with his saber, and inside was a warehouse full of firearms.
Boxes and boxes of cannon shells were piled up in the warehouse. Luo Yuan could already see more than a hundred boxes outside. Including the inside, Luo Yuan estimated that there were more than 300 boxes. Not only were there artillery shells, but there were also a lot of normal rifle bullets, about a dozen boxes of different types of grenades, grenades, and hundreds of rockets. On one side of the weapons rack, there were seven cannons, five heavy sniper rifles, and more than a dozen rifles. There were so many firearms that they could fight in a small war.
At that moment, the others, who were carrying Cao Ling and Wang Shishi, came over carefully. They were stunned when they saw the mountains of firearms.
Ordinary people had never seen such a scene before. Although they had seen an underground military warehouse that was almost the same as this one, that one had been emptied a long time ago. Other than the rockets, everything else was empty. This time, the entire underground warehouse was almost full.
"F * ck! How many things did the people from the camp take? "Lin Xiaoji cursed.
Huo Dong could not hold it in any longer. He walked to the weapons rack and picked up the heavy sniper rifle. After a while, he played with the rifle and said excitedly, "I don't think there are so many. It seems like they just finished restocking. Otherwise, the warehouse wouldn't be full. I don't know what happened, but everyone has left."
Seeing that Huo Dong had already walked over, the other men could not hold it in any longer. They picked up the weapons rack with a strange excitement on their faces. People's need for strength had reached an abnormal level during the apocalypse. A gun could make an ordinary person, who was at the mercy of others, instantly become a respectable person. It was a great temptation to everyone.
"Luo Yuan, it's too late if you delay any longer." Huang Jiahui reminded Cao Ling, who was lying on the ground, looking worse and worse.
After such a long delay, her breath was very weak, and her face was as pale as a dead person's. If she was not treated immediately, she might die.
"Don't play around, we'll have time later." Luo Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He immediately said, "Everyone, leave this place and pick a room to clean up. I need to treat Cao Ling immediately."
There were bombs everywhere. Even a spark could cause a violent explosion. It was too dangerous to stay there.
Luo Yuan carried Cao Ling and walked out of the basement. He kicked open a deformed burnt door on the second floor and carefully placed her on the ground. Then he went to the first floor and chopped off all the limbs of the biggest mutated spider. He quickly carried it back to the room.
Everyone retreated. The appearance of the mutated spider was very terrifying. On its back was a sinister black human face that looked like a relief sculpture. The facial features of the human face were distinct and lifelike. Even the sharp teeth in its mouth could be seen clearly. Its eyes were closed and its face was scrunched up. It looked like it was in extreme pain.
At first, everyone thought it was a warning color. Such a phenomenon was not rare in nature before the apocalypse. However, when Luo Yuan stabbed its body with his knife, it suddenly opened its mouth, revealing its crisscrossed canine teeth. At the same time, a horrifying baby-like cry was heard in the room.
Its blood-red eyes opened, filled with hatred and pain. Everyone's scalp went numb and they were in a trance. They felt like they were in hell.
Luo Yuan snorted heavily. His voice had a hint of Will. Everyone was shocked and quickly came back to their senses. They could not help but look at each other in shock.
Luo Yuan had seen this phenomenon once in the hall, so he was not surprised. This spider was the biggest among all the spiders. Although its body was only a meter in diameter, it was a blue level spider.
Its ability was very special. It could cause illusions in one's mind, and it was similar to the ghost locust tree that they had encountered in the past. Unfortunately, it had encountered the savage and violent Giant Lizard. With just a single breath, it had been blasted to the point where it could not resist at all. It had almost died.
However, there was no mission notification at all. A blue level spider could no longer trigger the system's response. While his strength was improving rapidly, it also meant that it would be harder for him to level up in the future.
As soon as the knife was inserted into the mutated spider's body, an obvious burning energy came from the handle. This energy was much stronger than the light blue level tree, and the effect was more obvious. Even Luo Yuan felt refreshed and his fatigue was gone.
He did not dare to delay and stuffed the handle into Cao Ling's hand.
At first, her body did not have any reaction, but after a few minutes, a trace of vitality gradually appeared on her pale face, and it turned into a slight redness.
Then, not only her face, but even her body started to become redder. Her breathing became faster and faster. Her hair, which was soaked in seawater, actually started to emit hot steam.
Blue level life energy was too much for a normal person. Even if this mutated spider was dying, it was still not something Cao Ling could handle.
Huang Jiahui touched her head and retracted her hand. She was shocked. Her forehead was burning hot, about 40 to 50 degrees Celsius. She asked worriedly, "Is she going to be okay?"
Luo Yuan shook his head. He did not know if there would be any problems. Logically speaking, she was absorbing life energy, so she should be fine. However, to be safe, he still stopped the energy transfer.
Without the energy source, Cao Ling's body temperature gradually returned to normal, and her breathing quickly stabilized. Although her face was still a little pale, she looked much better than before.
Luo Yuan looked at the mutated spider. After the torture, it was completely dead. However, what caught his attention was not the mutated spider, but the wound caused by the Zhanmadao.
There was a lot of disgusting yellowish-red pus on the wound, and the carapace near the wound showed signs of corrosion. It had completely lost its original luster.
Luo Yuan was curious. He knocked on the carapace with the back of the Zhanmadao. It seemed that something important had been lost. The hard carapace had now become extremely fragile. A slight knock was enough to make a hole.
He continued to knock a few more times, and the hole quickly expanded, revealing the rotten flesh inside. He used a wooden stick to stir it, and found that all the flesh had lost its toughness. After stirring it for a while, there were signs of it turning into a pool of pus and blood.
He suddenly thought of a word, "Genetic collapse!"
This was the first time Luo Yuan had seen such a phenomenon. The giant tree was huge, and it had dense roots that could continuously replenish its energy. Even after a few days, its life energy had not been depleted. When it left, only the leaves had turned yellow, but there were no signs of genetic collapse.
