Just as Yi Zanglan had predicted, Yin Canglang's team, located at the Holy Temple Hospital in the Tenth District, had been trapped in the underground tunnel for several hours.

The underground tunnel is like a huge metal maze, with pipes and stairs intersecting, branching paths crisscrossing, and water flowing rapidly.

They boarded two rafts and drifted down the dark river. Although they had oars, they could not fully control their direction and could not determine the correct route. They wandered around for a long time and tried many methods, but still came up empty-handed.

Later, some mechanism was activated, and countless infected people, who had lost their minds, began to wander around the underground tunnels like zombies. Some even jumped into the water and gradually approached their location.

They were forced to shoot, but the gunshots echoed through the tunnel, attracting even more infected people.

This place seemed to have become an artificial prison prepared for them.

"Have we fallen into a trap?" Wu Ying was filled with deep doubt. "We can take the waterway, and we can also take the stairs above. Perhaps this raft was a decoy option from the beginning, and we won't find any clues in the underground river."

Yin Canglang raised his head, his expression growing cold: "But it will be difficult for us to go up now."

Once they traveled by water, the drop in elevation was extremely high, and they lacked places to use as leverage to climb, making it virtually impossible for them to reach the stairs above.

"Isn't that a dead end?" Mu Qiuzhu gritted her teeth, coldly surveying her surroundings. "No, there must be another way out!"

"Our primary task is to find where the drug is hidden." Mu Qiuxue, whose mind always sharpens in dangerous situations, suddenly made a bold suggestion, "...Right, why don't we stack these infected corpses on top of each other to make a stepping stone? Maybe we can reach the pipes and then climb the stairs!"

Admittedly, it's very difficult to do, but it's not impossible to try.

Wu Ying's eyes lit up slightly: "Okay, that's smart, I agree."

Mu Qiuxue smiled upon hearing this, then looked at Yin Canglang: "Captain, what do you think?"

"Okay," Yin Canglang nodded. "It's the only way."

The four worked closely together and were extremely efficient. Wu Ying and Mu Qiuxue were responsible for rowing and controlling the direction of the boat, while Yin Canglang and Mu Qiuzhu were responsible for shooting and killing the infected who surrounded them, and then hooking the bodies to the vicinity, stacking them one after another until they reached a certain height.

"I don't know the specifics of the situation up there. I'll go up first. You all stay on the ship and wait for our assistance."

Just as Yin Canglang was about to leave, Wu Ying tugged at his sleeve from behind: "I'll go with you. My skills might be able to help you in a crucial moment."

"walk."

So the Mu sisters helped support the crumbling wall of corpses, and the two of them steadied themselves and climbed up the steps above the tunnel.

Fortunately, Yin Canglang and Wu Ying were both quite agile and skillful. Although the crisscrossing metal pipes were smooth and lacked footholds, they still managed to overcome the obstacles.

With great effort, the two finally managed to climb the nearest staircase. Standing on the edge of the staircase and looking down, they realized that the view from here was completely different from that below.

The water flows in countless branching paths, seemingly heading in different directions, without any order or pattern.

"The control panel..." Wu Ying gazed into the distance, looking towards the end of the stairs on the right, and frowned. "Is that the control panel?"

Yin Canglang looked in the direction she pointed and saw that the pipes there were obviously not the rusty bronze color, but a slightly dark silver color, with a platform in the middle.

She seemed to understand: "So, you rely on the control panel to direct the water flow and make the raft drift along the correct path?"

Therefore, to accomplish this task, it was necessary to work in groups inside the tunnel.

Since it's a cooperative competition, how can we leave out the cooperation?

In the short time it took to exchange those few words, more infected people appeared and began to gather at the location of the two from all directions.

"We need to hurry over there."

After Wu Ying finished speaking, she took a step forward when she suddenly felt a strong force coming from behind. Yin Canglang had already dragged her back to where she was.

The next second, a bullet whizzed past in front of me, hitting the nearby pipe and leaving a deep scorch mark.

Wu Ying turned her head in shock: "It's another group of people from the hospital!"

A few hours earlier, during the firefight in the hospital lobby, Yin Canglang had suspected that the thugs had other reinforcements and were also searching for the whereabouts of the hidden drugs.

Now that the door leading to the underground tunnel has been opened, it's not surprising that they found their way here.

Gunfire erupted as about a dozen fully armed men came up the stairs and used the two men as targets, firing wildly.

"You go! I'll cover you!" Yin Canglang shouted sharply. "Qiuzhu and Qiuxue, row according to her instructions!"

Without hesitation, Wu Ying immediately concealed herself and ran towards the control platform.

Mu Qiuzhu and Mu Qiuxue waited for Wu Ying's instructions at the river below while cooperating with Yin Canglang to fire.

"Damn it!"

The situation was urgent, and Wu Ying was also very anxious. She forced herself to calm down and approached the control panel as quickly as possible, concentrating on studying the complex control levers hidden in the grooves.

She tried many times and verified various combinations before she could barely figure out the control mechanism and the water flow below.

There is a small screen on the control panel. By blocking a portion of the water flow branch, you can control the raft to enter the correct branch. A green light will indicate when it is correct.

...She may have succeeded.

Because of her high vantage point, she could see a hidden door slowly rising from the bottom of the river at the end of the channel, and at the same time, a golden symbol appeared on the screen.

"There it is! Do you see it?!" Wu Ying shouted hoarsely, "Captain Yin, you go over there too!"

Then, with a loud bang, Yin Canglang threw a grenade, blasting several thugs who were chasing after him into the water.

With his magazine empty, Yin Canglang quickly reloaded while sprinting toward the direction the Mu sisters had drifted. Along the way, infected individuals approached and harassed him, inevitably leading to fierce battles.

Wu Ying fired her submachine gun at high frequency, clearing some obstacles for her, and quickly arrived nearby.

"Captain Yin, we...you're injured?"

"A minor issue."

The terrain above the stairs is relatively open, which is not conducive to concealment. Yin Canglang had just fought against many people and was also affected by the infected, so he was accidentally shot in the shoulder.

She casually wiped away the blood that had dripped down her face, tied her coat around her waist, and gestured to Wu Ying with a blank expression.

"Is it okay for you to jump from here?"

"no problem."

Before she could finish speaking, Wu Ying had already decisively jumped down.

Mu Qiuzhu and Mu Qiuxue, who were each rowing their own boats at the moment, immediately approached and made way to catch the two falling from above.

boom!

The two boats nearly capsized, but fortunately, Yin Canglang and Wu Ying landed precisely and managed to stabilize themselves in time, thus preventing a tragedy in which everyone fell into the water.

"Quick, that's the door!" Wu Ying patted Mu Qiuzhu's back and urged in a low voice, "More infected are catching up. We need to get the medicine and leave here as soon as possible!"

Mu Qiuzhu, rowing with all her might, looked speechless and dejected: "...That's fast enough, stop filming, you've got a really strong grip."
