When the breath belonging to human beings is affected by drugs, the danger level of human beings operating in the fog area will indeed be much lower.

However, the medicine developed by the Fog Base can only prevent humans from becoming the primary target of alien beasts for a certain period of time. An almost invisible effect.

But in any case, such drugs have been able to greatly improve the chances of human beings surviving on the ground.

It was the first time that Chai Yuening went hunting with a weapon from the Fog Base, and found a small, edible animal to try, and it was indeed much easier to use than ordinary bullets.

The instant lethality of this kind of bullet is not lower than that of ordinary bullets. It is impossible to kill with one shot and has the paralysis effect of subsequent electric shocks. Small animals will lose their ability to fight back as long as they are hit by a bullet. The problem.

Chai Yuening couldn't help thinking that if the dungeon base also had such weapons, perhaps the outer city of the base would not have fallen so completely.

After all, those who were able to enter the base were basically small and medium-sized animals.

Such thoughts were fleeting in her heart, and An Li's voice brought her thoughts back to reality.

"That thing runs so fast, you can hit it in one shot. The marksmanship is really good! If you are hunted later, you can take a taxi back in one afternoon!" An Li's face was full of the most ordinary happiness, "You are outside Is there an officer in the human base?"

"I'm not." Chai Yuening replied.

"I thought you were." An Li said, "Uncle Liu is from outside. His marksmanship is the best here, just like yours, fast and accurate. He used to be a soldier in a city floating in the sky. , is a very good officer."

"Is it the one with wings?" Chai Yuening probably remembered that Uncle Liu.

If I remember correctly, it is an existence that has grown a pair of wings, and its limbs have mutated into birds.

That inhuman appearance, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like it can hold a gun.

"That's right." An Li nodded, and said with emotion, "In the early years, when the degree of mutation was not so high, he could still hold the gun with his hand, but now he can't."

"……that's too regretful."

"However, his fighting skills are still very strong." Ender interjected, "Thanks to the fact that he has been instructing everyone in close combat in the base all these years, we can better protect ourselves without guns. "

An Li nodded: "Uncle Liu said that when he learns to fly, he will take us out to fight alien beasts. Those stupid alien beasts who can't fly can only watch, none of them can reach us!"

A soldier loses his hand to hold a gun, but never loses his belief in defending others.

The vehicle was driving in the boundless thick fog, and Chai Yuening couldn't help looking out the window, looking at an invisible distance in his heart.

After hunting six small and one medium-sized beasts, the off-road vehicle that went out to hunt was covered with prey even on the roof.

They slowed down the speed and returned happily with a full load.

For humans living in the foggy area, most of the strange beasts are treasures.

Small animals can be sterilized and eaten. Medium and large animals have certain research value. They can be sent to the experimental building first, and then decomposed and extracted after the research is completed.

Those with fur can be made into clothing, those with carapace can be used as armor, and hard objects such as teeth and bones can be processed into weapons or various tools.

The remaining flesh and blood can be thrown into the traps around the base, and can also be used as bait to deceive some idiots.

Ender drove the car to the entrance of the warehouse at the base, rolled up the window, and shouted loudly outside. Strangers rushed forward from all around, talking and laughing to help carry the prey.

Suddenly, a few screams interrupted their laughter.

Chai Yuening ran out of the warehouse gate, and a black shadow flew past her feet.

When she raised her head, a strange bird much bigger than a human was hovering in the air. Its feet clasped a girl less than ten years old, and its sharp claws had already pierced the child's flesh. Blood dripped down from the air.

The little girl cried loudly, her eyes filled with fear.

"Uncle Liu!" An Li exclaimed, "Xiaotang, Xiaotang is in his hands!"

"There is no human figure anymore, is there any help..." Chai Yuening couldn't help asking.

"I lost my will and started to attack humans. It has completely mutated." Ender said, raising the gun in his hand.

There are many people holding guns like him, but everyone's eyes are full of hesitation.

Even if the completely mutated person is hopeless, there is still a child.

With this shot, the child will most likely be thrown to death.

Just when the strange bird was about to go away, a vine wrapped around its ankle, and the little girl was clinging tightly to its toes.

The strange bird flapped its wings and turned angrily towards the place where the vine protruded, but when it was close to the ground, it was entangled by the vine and fell to the ground, unable to move any more.

It screamed angrily, and the surprised-eyed people came back to their senses, hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the crying child away, hugged the small body, and ran all the way towards the infirmary.

Chu Ci's weirdness only aroused everyone's temporary surprise. In this place, no one would cast a different look on anyone because of his weirdness.

They locked the beast in a tight cage, and the small base once again returned to calm.

It's just that the laughter turned into silence, and everyone's eyes were a little more sad, but it's not hard to see that this kind of sadness, everyone has long been accustomed to it.

The big cage that locked "Uncle Liu" was placed in the space between the two buildings facing each other, as if reminding newcomers all the time that there is no real paradise in this world, and danger is everywhere .

After nightfall, Chai Yuening stood in front of the window and saw An Li squatting beside the cage in a daze for a long time.

Standing behind her, Chu Ci asked softly, "What will happen to it after tonight?"

Chai Yuening couldn't answer this question.

She was also thinking, what would the people at the base do with this strange beast that was once a human being?

They didn't kill it immediately, could it be that they couldn't bear it, or did they need to study it?Or want to deprive it of something, such as fur, claws, bones...

She suddenly didn't want to think about it anymore.

That night, she lay in bed, unable to fall asleep anyway.

The sky outside the window gradually brightened, and she heard the sound of Ander calling An Li's name while driving the truck out of the garage.

Chu Ci on the side of the pillow fell asleep, she stood up lightly, put on her coat and ran downstairs.

She saw Ender shoot the strange bird twice, with a silencer installed in the gun / muzzle, and the strange bird fell down, and the cage was loaded onto the open truck.

"Why are you here?" An Li turned around and saw Chai Yuening.

"You are..."

"Let's give Uncle Liu a ride." An Li asked, "Do you want to go together?"

Chai Yuening was stunned for a moment, seeing An Li beckoning to him, she hurriedly chased after her.

After getting in the car, she looked at the motionless beast and hesitated, "Is it dead?"

An Li shook her head: "It's anesthesia/drunk/gun."

The little girl's voice was very soft, but she couldn't hide the sadness in her heart: "He is my teacher. He taught me both fighting and marksmanship...he is also the teacher of many people here."

Chai Yuening: "Where are you going to send him?"

An Li: "I don't know, I have no direction, just go to any place, as long as it's far enough away."

A car, seven people, and a strange beast drove away from the small human base in the early morning.

"Every one of us here may suddenly cease to be us." An Li leaned against the cage and said softly, "We don't want to hurt our former companions after we mutate, and we don't want our former companions The companion obviously couldn't bear it but still wants to kill us with his own hands, so if it can be subdued safely, we will send the mutated companion back to the fog zone, as far away from the base as possible..."

They ended up parking the car in an open field.

The cage on the car was moved down by them, the door lock was gently opened, and the beast in the cage was still asleep.

Everyone hid in the distance and waited quietly.

They can't leave now. If their former companions are in danger at this time, they will die completely in a deep sleep.

After some time, the big bird woke up.

It got out of the cage and flew into the sky without a trace of nostalgia.

Looking at the figure that was drifting away, Chai Yuening always felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"Where is it going?"

"Who knows, if there is any memory left... Maybe I want to go home."
