Xiang Jintian furrowed his brow and softly reprimanded, "Xixi, don't stir up trouble."
He truly couldn't understand why Xu Qian wanted to take people from the laboratory outside.
Xu Qian slightly raised an eyebrow, not responding.
If it weren't for the system stating he was a top scientific research talent and recommending he be brought back to the base, she wouldn't have wanted to bring the brat.
Ming Letong looked confused and asked, "Isn't the outside world beautiful?"
His parents had always told him that everything they did was for the future of their country.
Xu Qian's gaze was deep. She turned away, no longer looking at his hopeful eyes.
"You'll know when you go out and see."
The four of them scrambled down the opening one after another.
Ming Letong gritted his teeth and followed.
The tunnel was about twenty meters long, winding left and right. The five of them crawled for almost 10 minutes before reaching the exit.
At the innermost part was a glass, layered seven or eight times, very strong and very murky.
Without system items, even a gun couldn't break this glass.
Looking outside, they could only vaguely see that it was B City Park.
There were no zombies outside, only a swing set full of fallen leaves and a colorful children's playground.
Xu Qian let out a sarcastic smile. That man had gone to great lengths.
With a thought, a super lollipop hammer appeared in her hand.
Suddenly, shouts were heard.
"They're here!"
"Quick, get them!"
"Catch them!"
Everyone's expression tensed.
Especially Ming Letong, his face turned pale, and his palms began to sweat.
If Song Xiaoan found out he had escaped, he would definitely…
Xu Qian's expression remained unchanged. She tapped the center of the glass gently with the hammer.
With a "clang,"
No matter how stubborn the glass was, it shattered into pieces.
After the five of them climbed out, Xu Qian had another thought, and an RV appeared before her.
The four of them automatically got into the back seats, and Xiang Jintian took the driver's seat.
He stepped on the accelerator and quickly drove towards Bright Base.
After settling in, Xu Qian frowned. They seemed to have forgotten those three people.
"What about those three?"
Xiong Yongan calmly waved his hand.
"Don't worry about them. I told them to crawl back the way they came. They should be back at the base by now."
Xu Qian nodded inwardly. That was good.
Otherwise, they would be captured by those inhuman beings and their lives would be worse than death.
"Right, your injuries need to be treated."
With a thought from Xu Qian, some wound medicine appeared on the table.
Tears welled up in their eyes, so moved that they were about to cry.
"Hey, Xu Qian, look."
Hou Xiaoqing carefully noticed Ming Letong, who was leaning by the window.
Ming Letong's expression flickered. Outside the window, bodies lay everywhere, and zombies roamed the streets.
They would occasionally dig open the corpses on the ground and stuff their hollowed-out insides into their mouths.
Many mutated beasts were running around the streets.
The sky was gloomy, like a living hell.
Ming Letong's face turned pale, and he trembling asked, "Why is it like this?"
Xu Qian crossed her arms and said lightly, "It's the things you researched that turned the world into this."
Ming Letong's face turned red, and he shouted, "No! Everything we did was to make this world better, not like this!"
Xu Qian let out a cold sneer and said coldly, "Then take a serious, good look at this broken world."
Ming Letong burst into tears, his faith beginning to crumble.
He never imagined that what he had been doing was not saving the world, but… destroying it.
With a loud "bang."
