However, when Su Mo raised a hand to signal them to be quiet, they realized this was not the time to make noise. They all shut their mouths and looked at Su Mo.
"There is no experimental base. Have you seen it with your own eyes?" Su Mo said ambiguously.
“No, not really, but there have been rumors about it for several years now, and some people have even seen a few government officials there,” Molly said.
“I swear on the honor of Rose Sword, the government has not conducted any experiments nearby,” Su Mo said, since Rose Sword’s reputation had nothing to do with him anyway.
Molly asked, "Then what's with this thick fog, and what about that monster?"
Su Mo took out his phone, showed Molly a picture of Eller, and asked, "Do you know this person?"
After staring at the picture for a while, Molly finally looked enlightened and said, "This person, I think his name is Eller, he moved here a few years ago."
"Do you know where he lives?" Su Mo asked.
"It seems to be near Lake Becky..." Officer Molly suddenly stopped, and said with a hint of "I understand," "That base is said to be on the other side of Lake Becky, but no one has ever encountered it. And the last few times, those people who seemed to be government personnel were also encountered at Lake Becky!"
"This person, is this person doing some kind of terrible experiment, my God! And you CIA found out and came to stop him!"
"Your ability to fill in the blanks is top-notch."
Su Mo thought to himself, "I didn't expect that I didn't need to say anything at all, and the other party had already imagined the whole thing."
However, considering that Eller is a high-ranking member of the secret organization, he must possess a lot of special information. Given the strange changes happening all over the Earth, it's not impossible for him to create such a dense fog.
As for that monster, Su Mo felt it was beyond Ailer's capabilities.
What Molly said might be the truth.
In short, Molly's imagination saved Su Mo a lot of trouble. He nodded and said, "I can't reveal the specifics... you understand, but I think this person is the key, and I need to find him now."
"You want to find him?" Everyone's eyes widened.
“Yes, now,” Su Mo repeated.
"Really..." Molly shook her head. She didn't know how to comment on Su Mo's behavior.
“But I’m not familiar with this place, especially in the thick fog. I need your help,” Su Mo said to Molly.
Su Mo wasn't bad with directions, but this was his first time in this town. He quickly glanced at a map from who-knows-how-many years ago, and with the thick fog, finding Eller's place without a local to guide him was no easy task.
"I?"
Molly nodded at Su Mo, then gritted her teeth and said, "Okay. I'll take you there."
"We're not going."
Molly agreed, but the others wouldn't.
"It's okay, find a safe place for you to hide first." With that, Su Mo started the car.
"Hey, didn't you say the sound would attract that monster?" someone immediately tensed up.
"If we drive slowly, it shouldn't be a problem," Su Mo said. The car slowly drove out of the thick fog. Its excellent performance meant that it only made a slight noise when driving slowly, which reassured everyone.
"Hey, this is a convenience store. Let's go in here." Although they couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly, having lived here for so many years, some people still sensed that they were near the convenience store based on their vague intuition.
Although it's called a convenience store, it's the only large store in town. The interior is actually quite spacious, with a warehouse in the back containing food and water. It's the perfect place to hide and wait for rescue.
Su Mo stopped.
There were already quite a few people in the convenience store. Looking through the glass, they saw a huge black creature stop, and their hearts clenched. They had just narrowly escaped death after witnessing a monster waving its tentacles; what kind of monster was this?
Fortunately, several people ran out of the black shadow, indicating that it wasn't a monster, but a vehicle.
"Officer Molly, what happened?" As soon as the group entered the convenience store, people surrounded them and asked.
Molly waved her hand, indicating that they should ask other people for the answer, while she herself simply took two metal baseball bats.
She had run out of bullets and her pistol was useless. She had suggested getting a baseball bat for self-defense, so that she wouldn't be completely helpless if she encountered any monsters.
Of course, its self-comforting effect is significantly greater than its actual effect.
Su Mo wouldn't stop such a trivial matter.
"Alright, let's go." Molly said, handing a metal baseball bat to Su Mo.
Su Mo took the metal baseball bat and swung it casually, making a whistling sound, which reassured Molly a little.
Ignoring the strange looks from the others, Su Mo pushed open the convenience store door, took Molly out, got into the car, and slowly disappeared into the thick fog.
"What are those two up to?" someone asked.
"Atonement! The two of them are going to atone for their sins!"
Before anyone could answer after getting out of the car, a woman with slightly disheveled hair shouted loudly, looking like a charlatan.

Chapter 132 Brother, come play with me!
What happened inside the large convenience store was temporarily no longer relevant to Su Mo. He drove slowly, controlling his speed, and followed Molly's directions toward Eller's residence.
The car moved at a snail's pace, barely faster than walking, and Su Mo showed no impatience as he calmly looked out at the fog.
Molly, on the other hand, seemed a little nervous, staring intently outside, relying on a vague outline and her intuition from years of living here to find her way.
"Oh, right."
Suddenly, Molly seemed to remember something, pulled her phone out of her clothes, glanced at it, and cursed, "Damn it!"
The phone screen clearly showed no signal, likely due to the strange, thick fog blocking communication.
“If there’s no need to call the police, such a large area of dense fog would have already attracted attention, not to mention the existence of monsters.” Su Mo’s voice reached Molly’s ears.
"Do not."
Molly's voice trembled slightly, "I don't want to call the police, I want to call my husband, he went to the town to pick up the children."
"Is that so?" Su Mo responded noncommittally. He didn't know exactly how far the fog had spread, but it certainly had exceeded the area of this town and affected other places.
"What is that? What is that?!"
Molly suddenly screamed, then covered her mouth and pointed ahead.
Not far in front of the car, a black creature the size of a house could be seen in the middle of the road, blocking the way.
Indistinctly, through the thick fog, one could see black, strip-shaped shadows waving around the enormous creature, looking like tentacles.
At the same time, a series of pitiful screams came from that direction. They were weakened by the eerie thick fog and completely disappeared by the time they reached the car. Su Mo could only hear some faint sounds.
"It must be some kind of monster," Su Mo said, shifting the gear to reverse and slowly backing away. He then asked, "Are there any other roads?"
“We can back up a bit and turn left from where we were,” Molly said, still shaken. “There’s a side path there…it’ll be a little roundabout.”
“Okay,” Su Mo said. No sooner had he finished speaking than a deafening crash of a house collapsing came from nearby.
Molly turned her head sharply and saw a huge black shadow crawl past the car, smashing all the nearby houses, just like a larger toy car crushing haphazardly stacked blocks.
The enormous black shadow passed by. The surrounding thick fog seemed to be stirred and churned like water, thinning out to reveal its shape.
This thing looks like a beetle, and like the mantis monster, it looks extremely ferocious. Its size is no less than that of the monster that was rampaging in the middle of the road.
The giant beetle was clearly heading for the tentacled monster; the two enormous bodies collided, and the ground seemed to tremble.
"My God! Is this world going to end?! No, is this really Earth?"
Officer Molly couldn't help but exclaim in shock. If the mantis monster was still somewhat tolerable, the sight of two monsters over ten meters tall fighting before her eyes almost completely shattered her original worldview.
"Calm down."
Su Mo spoke up, not wanting his guide to suddenly break down, "They're just a bunch of stupid beasts."
“Foolish beast?” Molly was taken aback.
“That’s right. No matter how you look at it, these giant insects don’t seem to have any intelligence, do they?” Su Mo said.
This wasn't entirely unfounded; at least for now, Su Mo couldn't discern that these enormous, insect-like monsters possessed intelligence comparable to that of humans.
“Without intelligence, they’re just a bunch of wild beasts. One missile would be enough to take them out,” Su Mo said. “If that doesn’t work, then two.”
Perhaps Su Mo's persuasion had worked, as Molly calmed down a little. ←Baidu Search→ However, the look of terror on her face didn't lessen much.
Su Mo didn't expect an ordinary person to be as calm as he was when faced with such a situation; he just wanted her to be able to guide him.
Following Molly's instructions, Su Mo continued driving slowly.
To be honest, he did want to speed things up, but the environment wouldn't allow it. Also, he was afraid of making too much noise and attracting the monsters that lurked in the thick fog. Su Mo himself wasn't afraid of these monsters, but Molly was a different story.
After driving for a full two hours, until it was completely dark, Su Mo finally approached Lake Becky.
“It’s nearby,” Molly said in a low voice. Having seen so many monsters appearing and disappearing in the thick fog, she had gone from being afraid to being numb.
Thank you.
Su Mo said, taking out a pistol and handing it to Molly. "You can use this gun. You can also drive the car away. I might not come back. If you don't mind, you can wait for me here or wait for rescue."
"I...I think I'll go back to the convenience store." Su Mo's gun seemed to give Molly a bit of courage.
"Well, good luck, kind officer. Driving slowly shouldn't be dangerous." After saying that, he pushed open the door and got out of the car. As Su Mo pushed open the door, some thick fog rushed into the car.
After closing the car door, Molly watched the somewhat strange CIA agent quickly disappear into the thick fog. She patted her cheeks and muttered to herself, "It's okay, Molly, you can do it." With slightly trembling hands, she started the car and slowly reversed.
"It seems like normal fog, and I don't feel like I'm going to die, so it shouldn't be poisonous." After walking a distance in the thick fog, Su Mo reached out and touched his hair, which had begun to become damp.
A dense grove of trees appeared before them. According to Molly, Lake Becky was on the other side of this grove, and Eller's big house was right by the lake.
In the dense fog-shrouded forest, the shadows of the trees resembled twisted, eerie figures, reminding Su Mo of scenes from the classic horror game Silent Hill from long ago.
However, Su Mo remembered that the monsters in Silent Hill were all humanoid or humanoid monsters, which were the embodiment of the hidden fears in the human heart, something with a real philosophical feel.
The monsters appearing in this dense fog are much simpler and more brutal; they fight without warning, and their ferocity far outweighs their horror. It's like a monster movie, rather than a horror-thriller like Silent Hill.
"Click, click."
His feet sank into the fallen leaves and branches. The sound was extremely jarring in the quiet environment. Su Mo paused for a moment, then reached out and touched the tree trunk beside him, finding it surprisingly icy.
"The temperature has dropped... That's a bit illogical. If these monsters come from another world, the low temperature wouldn't be enough for them to maintain such a huge size. Or is it that all the rules on Earth don't apply to other worlds?" Su Mo thought to himself.
As they got closer to Lake Nabechi, the temperature dropped, and Su Mo's breath turned into white mist, mixing with the surrounding thick fog.
Just then, a sound similar to that of the mantis monster they had encountered at the beginning reached Su Mo's ears, and trees not far away began to fall with a thud.
A giant mantis monster charged from Su Mo's right side. As soon as it raised its scythe-like forelimbs, it sliced the tree in front of it in two, demonstrating the sharpness of its forelimbs.
