The researcher choked and didn’t know how to answer.

After a slight pause, he subconsciously lowered his voice.”Can they hear what I’m saying?”

Lu Xin looked at the nearest metal warrior who was also three meters away and shook his head. “If you can’t hear me, you can speak.”

The researcher took a deep breath and lowered his voice. we didn’t dare to meet up with most of the teams. We need to be careful of the possibility of being contaminated at such a close distance. If we rashly make contact with most of them, it’s very likely that we will spread the contamination to them. So, now … Now we’ve found a safe place as much as possible. For the time being, for the time being, just now …”

At this point, his voice could not help but tremble slightly. He tried his best to say, “”Just now … Are we seeing an illusion?”

Lu Xin shook his head and looked at the wounds on the soldiers. “I don’t think

“Hiss .

The researcher took a deep breath and said, “”ln other words, what happened to them is the same as the people in the observation point?”

Lu Xin nodded lightly.

The researcher said with difficulty, ” so, Mr. Shan Bing, do you have any thoughts on the investigation now? ‘

“Not yet.”

“I can only tell that they’re killing each other.” Lu Xin said softly.

“You can give me some suggestions!”

“Alright …”

The researcher seemed to be trying hard to keep calm before he said in a low voice,

“If we can confirm the cause of their deaths, then there are two questions we need to figure out. ” first, what kind of power made them kill each other? ”

second, what caused them to still walk around like living people even though they are already dead? and they are even working …

Mr. Shan Bing, you have to be careful. What if they’re just in disguise …

“It’s fine, I know what to do.

Lu Xin replied softly. He then cut off the conversation and walked forward.

The metal fighters seemed to have noticed Lu Xin’s mysterious presence and didn’t dare to approach him.

After making sure that Lu Xin had ended the call, he slowly walked forward.

His face, which was as stiff as a dead man’s, had a look of hope …

It was like a living person’s hope.

They really saw him as their hope. They thought that if he came, all the problems could be solved.

“I’ll go take a look at the observation point first!”

Lu Xin said softly as he turned around and walked toward the tent at the observation point.

The metal fighters immediately acted as if they were facing a great enemy and followed behind him nervously.

The observation point was located to the West of their tent, about 100 meters away. There were lights inside and people waiting outside the tent.

The person sitting outside the tent only noticed Lu Xin’s presence when he made his way over to the tent. The person knocked on the tent’s door.

The people inside also came out and looked at Lu Xin and the others with worry.

Lu Xin studied them closely and felt a sense of uneasiness.

There were seven people in this observation point, and it seemed that they were indeed dead.

Moreover, it was obvious that they had been dead for longer than the group of soldiers who had fresh wounds.

Some of them had already developed livor mortis on their bodies, in patches.

Some of them had already rotted, and there were even maggots crawling inside. He scratched them from time to time, as if he thought they were ringworm.

Some of their heads had already swelled up, and their skin had become a translucent membrane.

The strong smell of dead bodies drifted around their tents, and the dim light turned their eyes green.

The group of metal fighters behind him had already stopped.

Although they didn’t raise their guns, it was obvious that they were afraid of the person in the observation point.

The dead were afraid of the dead.

‘What exactly … What’s the matter?”

Someone in the observation point couldn’t help but ask Lu Xin.

It seemed that from their perspective, these colleagues who had rushed over to meet up with them were very strange.

When the people in the car that had come earlier saw them, they immediately retreated as if they had seen a ghost. Then, no matter what they said, they didn’t dare to get close at all. They only stopped moving when they were a hundred meters away.

Later on, they heard the sound of gunfire and wanted to go over to take a look, but they were scolded back.

Now, a person in casual clothes had come, but he didn’t say anything and just looked at them.

Are they treating us as contaminated people?

There’s really something wrong with us. If we’ve been contaminated, how can our thoughts be so clear?

“I’m fine.’

Lu Xin replied softly with a reassuring smile on his face.”Everyone, don’t be anxious.”

To them, it was useless to be anxious now.

After Lu Xin had appeased them, he whispered into the comms channel next to the telescope,

I didn’t find any obvious sources of contamination or mental monsters, and I didn’t find any particularly obvious clues. What should I do? ”

This was the first time Lu Xin had encountered such a situation, so he trusted the professional researchers ‘advice.

The researcher seemed to have calmed down a lot. He said in a low voice,

“What we need to eliminate now is whether we’re under some kind of influence, which is why we’re seeing such a strange scene.” perhaps they were still alive, but some kind of power affected our judgment .

so, Mr. Shan Bing, you can first take some samples of them and then bring them back for testing to determine their condition.

“And then …”

He paused for a moment and said in a low voice, ‘”‘There are two things that need to be done.” first, make sure they don’t spread.

second, you can try to make them understand through logic or other means … ‘What? Oh …

Before the researcher could finish his sentence, his voice suddenly became panicked.

There was a muffled sound, followed by a noise from the channel.

It was followed by two thin “crack” sounds, and a “puff” sound could be faintly heard.

An ear-piercing gunshot was heard, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

After that, there was a long silence, and there was the faint whimpering of the wind.

Lu Xin sat quietly in his seat. He did not say a word, nor was he in a hurry to ask what had happened.

He waited in silence for a long time. About 30 seconds later, there was the sound of a microphone being picked up. The researcher’s voice sounded, ‘

Oh, where were we just now?” that’s right. We can try to make them understand through other means .

He was as serious and cautious as before. the fact that they are already dead. We’ll see their reaction.

The researcher still sounded calm and serious.

From the sound of it, he was also seriously helping Lu Xin analyze the possible situations that might happen and giving his best answers. If it wasn’t for the noise in the middle, everything would have sounded very normal. However, the more normal his tone and the content of his words seemed, the more Lu Xin felt an indescribable sense of oppression.

He was silent for a long time, until the other side of the phone said ” hey worriedly, and then he sighed.

“Are you alright?”

“I just heard a commotion over there,” Lu Xin said softly.

The researcher on the other side was stunned for a moment before he whispered, “”l’m fine. What did you hear? Don’t scare me. ‘

it’s nothing, ” Lu Xin sighed. I’m just curious about your suggestion. Why did you tell them? ‘

The researcher’s tone became serious and he said in a low voice,

because we don’t know what kind of pollution we’re facing, how big the area is, or how the pollution spreads. For those who have been contaminated, they might not even know that they have been contaminated.

Lu Xin’s heart sank when he heard his words.

He lowered his voice as much as he could and continued to ask, “”And then?”
