Welcome to Xiuzhen Academy

Gentle white light fell on Yu Qian, and the wounds on her shoulders and arms began to heal.

Secchia asked: "Are you feeling better? It seems you still have a low fever."

Yu Qian moved his shoulders: "Much better, thank you."

"It's strange, why doesn't your fever go down?" Secchia asked doubtfully, "Have you eaten any poisonous food or been bitten by a poisonous creature? The fever never goes down."

Yu Qian shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a small problem, as long as it doesn't affect the activities."

"Do you know each other? That's great." Song Yuanxing asked, "My name is Song Yuanxing. I don't know how to call it. By the way, can you tell us what happened here? We fell into the ice cave not long ago due to some accidents and found it. Here, but all I saw along the way were corpses, are there any dangerous creatures here?"

"Just call me Yuzai." Yu Qian didn't know what was going on down there. She might not have arrived earlier than them. "I was hunting snow wolves in the snow-capped mountains."

As she spoke, she revealed the almost healed wound on her arm at the right time. The bite of her teeth coincided with the fangs of the snow wolf. If she hadn't reacted in time, the arm would have been gone.

"I was injured. I stepped into a snow pit in the snow on the way back. After falling down, I found a staircase leading to the inside of the snow mountain." She gave some details to make it sound more credible.

Yu Qian gave a brief summary: "When I got here, there were already many corpses, and some of them were still warm. Then I lost too much blood and prepared to rest in place to avoid encountering murderous monsters, but I misjudged the human body at low temperatures. I fell asleep due to my tolerance, and I don’t know how long it took before I met you.”

She made the timeline very vague, and the content was either true or not.

As expected, Song Yuanxing did not doubt her words: "So that's the case. It would be difficult to deal with. These corpses were already stiff when we came down. They must have been frozen for a long time."

He frowned in confusion, extremely puzzled: "But you haven't encountered any monsters here for so long, and we haven't encountered any along the way. It's really strange."

Saekiya said: "The roads here are complicated and there are many exits. Maybe they went to other passages. Generally speaking, in the natural environment, beasts with strong hunting capabilities will not wait and wait for prey. They will choose to take the initiative. "

Yu Qian agreed: "Yes, there may be another possibility."

"What?" Song Yuanxing asked.

"They have left the ground." Yu Qian said.

Song Yuanxing opened his eyes wide: "You mean they went to the outside world?"

Yu Qian gave him a strange look: "Are we the only ones allowed to fall down and not allow them to leave? Judging from the actual situation, their understanding of the terrain is much better than ours."

"It makes sense." He was convinced, "But it's better to be careful. They may also be wandering in other passages like the captain said."

Yu Qian has already penetrated into the enemy and is not in a hurry to leave now: "What are your plans?"

Song Yuanxing looked at Saikiya.

Saikiya said: "We need to look for traces of murderous creatures underground. Its score should be high. Your current condition is not good. I suggest you act together with us. It is too dangerous to be alone."

Someone was working for free, and Yu Qian couldn't ask for it. She was waiting for this sentence: "Okay."

"Are you alone?" Secchia asked again. "Are you without a companion?"

Yu Qian: "Yes, we got separated."

"Let's continue walking along this road." Song Yuanxing suggested, "This should be the underground space built by the base, but it was occupied by monsters after the troops retreated. We can first look for the storage rooms and shelters from back then. So, maybe there will be clues.”

No one objected.

So after walking along the road to the end, a white gate with a strong sense of technology appeared on the original rock wall.

"I want the password..." Song Yuanxing took out some unknown equipment and connected them to the password machine. Ten minutes passed.

"Dip - formatted."

He adopted the simplest and crudest method, using the existing federal technology to format passwords from hundreds of years ago.

But doing so will render all the equipment inside useless.

The door slides open to reveal the full view behind——

It was similar to the structure of the base, but it was pitch black without lights, and the circuits here couldn't connect to the base's backup power supply due to formatting, so they could only move forward in the darkness with a flashlight.

As guessed, this should be a storage room, with everything from food and clothing to ammunition, weapons and medicines placed in dozens of separate rooms.

Yu Qian took some antipyretic injections and epinephrine from the medical room and put them in his pocket. After spending more than two hours looking through this underground fortress, no useful clues were found.

Song Yuanxing glanced at the computer with a black screen in a pity tone: "It's a pity that I can't decipher the password, otherwise I wouldn't have to format the devices here. Maybe I can still find it on the computer."

"Shh-" Yu Qian suddenly made a silent gesture.

Song Yuanxing immediately stopped talking and asked with his eyes.

Yu Qian pointed to the door and gestured with his mouth: There is something.

The three of them looked at each other and then walked over quietly.

The door was flung open.

Under the white light from the flashlight was a pair of blood-red eyes.

The next second it flew out.

It was too dark and the flashlight couldn't shine that far, so I could only roughly make out its outline.

Yu Qian felt that it looked like an enlarged version of the water monkey, almost two meters tall. Just now it was hiding outside the door and lying on the ground, peeking in through the crack of the door on the ground.

It was large in size, but it was not bulky at all. Instead, it was incredibly flexible and disappeared into the corridor in the blink of an eye.

"Chase!"

The three of them rushed out the door together.

Until I ran out of the fort, I didn't see any trace of that thing.

Standing in the underground corridor again——

Song Yuanxing gasped: "It ran so fast, I didn't even see its shadow!"

Yu Qian felt a little out of breath and leaned against the rock wall to catch his breath: "There are scratches on the ground and walls. Its nails have strong gripping ability. It is normal for it to move faster than us."

Seciya said: "Keep moving forward, maybe you can still meet him."

Went forward a little further.

Yu Qian suddenly felt dizzy due to lack of oxygen in her brain and her head felt heavy. She couldn't help but hold on to the wall and paused for two seconds.

"What's wrong? Did you run too fast just now?" Secchia also stopped, touched her forehead, and used the healing technique on her very considerately. "Your high fever is also very strange. It doesn't seem to be caused by the outside world at all. of."

Yu Qian shook his head and was about to speak when he was suddenly startled.

She opened her eyes wide, touched the rock wall she was holding on to, then quickly turned around and ran back.

"What's wrong?" Song Yuanxing and Saiqia didn't react, but they both chased after him.

She returned to the place she ran out of and shined her flashlight on the rock wall she was leaning on.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you running away all of a sudden?" Song Yuanxing, who was catching up, saw her movements and asked again, "Is there any problem?"

Yu Qian suddenly took out his knife and stabbed it hard into the rock wall——

At this moment, two blood-red eyes lit up on the "rock wall".

A large "Sea Monkey" more than two meters high jumped down from the rock wall. It seemed to be stuck to the rock wall just now. It knocked them away and flew forward towards the passage again.

"Oh my God!" Song Yuanxing exclaimed, "It was lying on the rock wall just now!"

Its surface has the same color as the rock wall, and even has cracked lines. You can't tell the difference at all in the dark environment.

But when Yu Qian touched the rock wall just now, he discovered that there was something wrong with the slight difference in temperature and touch between the rock wall he was leaning on before.

After this guy ran out of the underground fortress, he lay tightly on the rock wall and hid his claws deep in the cracks.

Yu Qian was dissatisfied and irritated with her carelessness for a moment, but soon doubts filled her brain - why didn't it take action just now?
