Wanjie: Starting from the Back Room

The electric sightseeing car made very little noise, and coupled with the flat ground of the "abandoned warehouse", it can be said that the vehicle drove smoothly and steadily.

Except for the puddles that appeared from time to time.

Qin Lan sat in the co-pilot seat and flipped through the documents in her hand, and gradually became aware of the so-called "back room".

Although level 1 did not clearly indicate whether it was infinite, the explored area was also extremely vast, so it was not easy to find the base of M.E.G.

Zizi...

Just as Yang Tao was driving the tram at a speed of 20 miles per hour, the incandescent lamp above his head suddenly made a much louder electric current sound than usual.

The next moment, the incandescent lamp went out directly and the surroundings fell into darkness.

"Ah..."

Qin Lan, who was originally concentrating on reading the documents, was startled by the sudden power outage and subconsciously grabbed Yang Tao's arm.

"Your behavior is very similar to those green tea whores who deliberately try to get into a man's arms in the cinema..."

Yang Tao's complaints brought Qin Lan back to her senses, and she quickly let go of his hand and said: "I'm sorry, I... I'm usually afraid of the dark."

"Haha, you're usually afraid of the dark? Then congratulations, you'll become afraid from today on."

"What... what do you mean?"

"Welcome to the back room."

This blackout was extremely abnormal. Under normal circumstances, only three or four level 1 incandescent lamps would go out, but now both the front and the back were plunged into darkness.

Yang Tao turned on the modified lights of the sightseeing car, and the white light dispelled the original darkness in an instant.

[Hound], [Blunt], and even [Sad Corpse], which Yang Tao had seen for the first time, appeared in the darkness, but...

They didn't seem to be coming for him... But as soon as he turned on the lights, he attracted the attention of this group of entities...

[Sad Corpse] is a humanoid entity, often described as having behaviors similar to the living dead or zombies.

These entities were once human, transformed through a process called the "Sadness Cycle", which is believed to be caused by deprivation of important nutrients such as food, water, and sleep.

Sadness are common throughout the Back Chamber, and due to their nature, they stay in the dark wherever humans gather.

Sadness Cycles can last from a few weeks to a few months.

A common Sadness behaves similarly to a Skinthief, possessing little intelligence but incredible strength. However, a few Sadness display intelligence or even human-like behavior, or are able to craft or wield weapons.

Sadnesses tend to vary greatly in appearance. A fully infected Sadness has a reddish-brown, flaky, dry skin covered in holes and pustules, and secretes a thick reddish-brown substance.

Mutations are common among Sadnesses, often resulting in misplaced eyes, disjointed or redundant limbs, and even the appearance of fleshy, bony "wings".

There is a common and terrifying mutant that looks like a deformed piece of meat, almost entirely composed of eyes, mouths and other mouthparts of unknown purpose.

In general, this group of [Sad Corpses] look extremely delicious.

There are a lot of entities that suddenly appeared in the darkness. There are forty or fifty [Sad Corpses] and [Hounds] alone, and there are more entities coming from the darkness in the distance.

"Ah!"

"Shut up, it's time to shout."

Yang Tao raised his hand directly

Bang!

A bullet containing the power of fire shot out from the muzzle, and Yang Tao jumped off the sightseeing car. When he landed, a large amount of obsidian appeared in his hand.

Dongdongdong...

Bang... Bang...

The sound of bullets fired and the sound of blocks being placed sounded together, and at the same time a wooden door appeared behind him.

One by one, the burly iron golems filed out of the wooden door, and after they came out of the door, they took the "cleavers" behind them in their hands.

The scarlet eyes looked extremely terrifying in the dark.

"Go! Kill them, not one will be spared!"

The sound of metal colliding with the concrete floor rang out. With the blessing of the [Cobalt Ore] [Light] characteristics, the speed of this group of mutant iron golems became even faster.

They were not afraid of those terrifying-looking [Entities] at all. Yang Tao's orders were their will.

In less than ten seconds, Qin Lan was surrounded by obsidian by Yang Tao, and finally an iron door was put on. Looking at Qin Lan who had not yet reacted, Yang Tao showed a bloodthirsty smile:

"Stay inside obediently, I'm going to have some fun with those entities..."

Yang Tao's body inexplicably made a sizzling sound. This was the sound of the [Lightning in a Bottle] in his inventory.

The reason why the sound was made in the backpack was because it was no longer related to the [Back Room].

[Lightning in a Bottle]

[Accessories][Put it in the inventory to get Strength II and Speed ​​II]

[PS: A 'merchant' prepaid, although it wants to buy your life. ]

Yang Tao's speed became extremely fast with the blessing of [Speed ​​II].

Bang.

A hound in the distance was decapitated by his bullet.

"Energy value delivered to the door!"

Bang...

"It's really interesting!"

A raging flame burned on a corpse, illuminating the surrounding environment, and the miserable cry echoed in the 'abandoned warehouse'.

The revolver had no bullets, and a piece of obsidian replaced the revolver. It was not a miniature palm-sized shape, but a standard one-meter square real size.

He used all his strength to hit the head of a [Laughing Nightmare] that appeared behind him, and the already exaggerated smile became distorted, and the glowing teeth flew out immediately.

"Quack..."

The Laughing Nightmare made a duck-like laugh, and the glowing face family that had surrounded it immediately stopped.

It was almost a breath.

The group of Laughing Nightmares fled in all directions without looking back, and soon they all disappeared from Yang Tao's sight.

Yang Tao: "..."

Looking at the only remaining Laughing Nightmares, Yang Tao instantly roared in anger: "Damn it, stand still, I'll torture you if you move."

He quickly surrounded the Laughing Nightmares with [Obsidian]. He had to find out what these Laughing Nightmares were saying.

Why did they run away when they saw him?

He didn't look as ugly as the Sad Corpse, nor did he have the inexplicable pressure of the beast.

He was just an ordinary Steve, what was there to be afraid of? Wouldn't it be better to come and contribute energy?

After surrounding the Laughing Nightmares, Yang Tao once again joined the battle. These level 1 entities were generally not strong, but Yang Tao was inexplicably poisoned again.

Taking out a bottle of [Regeneration Potion] from his backpack and drinking it, Yang Tao looked at the entities being slaughtered by the Iron Golems in the darkness, and a question popped up in his mind:

'Why did these entities suddenly appear in groups? '

Suddenly, he remembered the introduction of the bases and outposts of the major organizations.

[But the narrow level 2 space and the more frequent entity invasions made it difficult for the still small and expanding M.E.G. to occupy it. ]

If only one or two entities invaded, M.E.G. would not have abandoned the base at level 2, which only meant that they were attacked by a large number of entities, just like... what was happening before his eyes.

'Does that mean there are human groups around? '
