Chapter 110 Illusion

"Captain Wang, I feel like something is wrong..." Zhao Xi told Wang Hu what he thought, but the fog was so heavy that it would be more dangerous to get out of the car to check the situation, so he could only continue to waste his time like this.

Soon the fog dissipated a lot, and the two cars were able to continue setting off.

More than an hour later, the sky got a lot brighter. If calculated according to the time, they should have returned to the planned route by this time.

The route of this trip has been traveled many times by teams organized by the Eastern District Military. The soldiers here are very familiar with the signs along the way, and they have a good idea of ​​what kind of strange animals are roaming around nearby.

As long as there are no unexpected situations, there will be no alien beasts that are too difficult to deal with on these ten roads, just like the group of mutant dogs yesterday. Although there are many in number, their speed and strength are low-level among the alien beasts.

But in the current situation, the original route could not be found at all. The two cars stopped again to discuss. They were obviously going in the right direction, but why was the surrounding environment so unfamiliar?

What on earth is this place? Where on earth are they?

All the soldiers felt very confused, and the accompanying superpowers also realized that something was not right, and everyone quickly began to discuss it.

After some discussion, no one came up with any good ideas, so they could only redraw the route and continue moving forward. After stopping and going for most of the day, the direction was completely messed up. Now the two cars were like headless flies.

Traveling here and there, hitting here and there, all the energy in the car will be exhausted and there will be no way back.

Not only have they lost the direction of their established route, they have also lost the direction of their base. Satellite positioning is no longer possible now, and the satellites flying in the sky have long ago completely collapsed under the disaster.

Nowadays, I basically look at the map when I go out. Once my sense of direction is messed up, let alone finding the original road, I have to decide whether I can go back to the base.

It was getting late, and the team had no choice but to stop and rest before they figured out a solution.

At this moment, it was rare that the wind and snow stopped for a moment. Everyone got out of the car and decided to set up camp and rest tonight.

A fire was rising in the snow house, dried vegetable pimple soup was boiling in a small pot, and Qin Xun was baking three skewers of multigrain steamed buns.

"Come on, Zhao Xi, Xiao Le, it's baked."

"Thank you. It's still hot and delicious. Come on, the pimple soup is ready. Hurry up and bring the bowls over."

While the three of them were sipping hot corn gnocchi soup and nibbling multigrain steamed buns, they didn't forget to discuss what happened today.

"Zhao Xi, do you think we can still go back to the base? I don't want to die the first time we go out. That would be too embarrassing." Fang Le expressed some worry. Qin Xun glanced at him, put down the bowl and stretched out his hand.

.

"Ouch-brother, why are you hitting me on the head? It hurts, okay!!"

"It hurts, that's right! What kind of frustrating words are you saying when something happens? Also, when you die, do you only think about your own shame? You don't think about what my aunt and uncle will do without you?"

"Qin Xun is right, Fang Le, you really deserve a beating." Seeing his elder brother teach his younger brother, Zhao Xi found it a bit interesting.

"Zhao Xi, you teamed up with my brother to bully me! But then again, are you two really not worried at all?"

"Worry, we are trapped here now. Three to five days is okay, seven, eight or nine days can be tolerated, but as time goes by, we will run out of food, and everyone will definitely die by then." Zhao Xi said as he rowed.

A dead branch in the hand.

"Yes, we are likely to die. You know this clearly, but why don't you feel afraid at all?"

"Why aren't you afraid? But what's the point of being afraid? We have to find a way and we can't be trapped here to death!" Qin Xun glanced at his brother angrily, thinking that everyone was like him and said whatever came to his mind!

"I have a guess. The environment we see in front of us may not be true." As soon as Zhao Xi said this, Qin Xun and Fang Le both looked at her. Zhao Xi threw the dead branches in his hands into the fire.

He clapped his hands and raised his head to look at the two of them and continued:

"Have you ever thought about it, Battalion Commander Wang and others are very sure that the route is correct, but why did they not return to the established route twice?"

Zhao Xi looked at the doubts in their eyes and continued to explain: "The first time, a cliff suddenly appeared halfway. The second time, we encountered thick fog. When the fog cleared, we continued walking until the surrounding environment became more and more unfamiliar. After that,

I won’t mention the few times that Battalion Commander Wang and others fell into self-doubt, and their sense of direction became increasingly weak.

Do you think it's possible that the surrounding environment we see is an illusion. For example, the cliff, the strange place for the second time, and the current environment outside are actually all created illusions."

"That is to say, we cannot believe the environment we see. We are blinded by what we see with our naked eyes and fall into an illusion."

"That's right, but the surrounding environment is not necessarily untrustworthy. Have you noticed the corpses of mutated beasts that occasionally appear on the road?"

"Is there anything wrong with the bones? I heard that mutated beasts also fight and devour each other, so it's not surprising that there are bones." Fang Le scratched the back of his head, confused. Qin Xun's eyes were also full of doubts, and he nodded and said:

"Yes, Zhao Xi, we also met some along the way. What are the bones..." Suddenly, Qin Xun seemed to realize something, and suddenly realized: "You mean those bones are real?"

"Yes, it's not surprising that mutant beasts fight and devour them to death, but the bones of the alien beasts we encountered along the way were either eaten away, leaving only a mutilated skeleton, or they were covered in ice and snow intact.

Even if the alien beasts are hungry, they will not lick their bones so cleanly, unless they are extremely hungry without food, and those that are intact will be trapped here to death."

Fang Le: "Then what exactly causes such an illusion? How can we get out of the current predicament?"

In fact, for Zhao Xi, the way to get out of the predicament is very simple. Just turn the RV into "high altitude" mode, turn on the RV to locate the base, and then fly directly there. It won't take long to reach the base.

But now there are a lot of people and two friends, Qin Xun and Fang Le, here, so naturally she can't just leave alone.

"Judging from those corpses, the good thing now is that this illusion will not harm us except trapping us here. But it will be difficult to get rid of the current predicament. But if we can find the cause of the illusion, we can find a way

If we get rid of it, we might be able to walk out." As soon as Zhao Xi finished speaking, two figures entered the snow house one after another.

"Miss Zhao is right. Illusions cannot appear out of thin air. There must be something creating the illusion."

"Captain Wang, why are you here? Sit down quickly. Qin Xun, leave it to Commander Wang and this little..."

Realizing what Zhao Xi was about to blurt out, Tan Zhen's face turned dark and he quickly said: "Hello, Zhao Xi, my name is Tan Zheng."

"Well, pour some hot water for Battalion Commander Wang and Tan Zhen." Zhao Xi nodded, but she didn't care too much. She understands that such a big child is easy to eat.
