Originally, it was hot in summer, so there was no need for fire.

But their clothes were soaked and they could only huddle together.

Especially the shoes must be dried, otherwise the rest of the journey will be impossible.

Time passed by, heavy rain poured down, and thunder and lightning occurred frequently.

Everyone's mood also became anxious as the weather became violent.

This is not a hole with a passage, and it is very depressing to stay in it.

They just hope to get out of this dark cave as soon as possible.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed, followed by a loud noise from outside the cave, and everyone almost jumped in fright.

"What happened?" Wang Jinpeng patted his chest with lingering fear.

Lin Ran decided to investigate, and he walked carefully to the entrance of the cave.

Seeing the scene outside the cave, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Not far away, a bolt of lightning struck a big tree.

The big tree instantly caught fire.

Fortunately, in this heavy rain, I can't help but worry about the spread of fire.

Moreover, the soil here is moist, and there are plants that are not easily ignited.

But everyone was still attracted by the fire.

They were all terrified. If they hadn't escaped quickly, they might have left only dust at this moment.

After the loudest thunder blast ended, the rain outside gradually became lighter.

The people in the cave can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The shoes are almost dry and don't affect walking.

Wang Jinpeng also took the opportunity to take out dry food to fill his stomach.

During this short break, they started chatting about mutant mice.

It's not like they haven't seen monsters before, but they were all in ancient tombs.

Liu Jingfeng has lived in Beijing for more than 30 years and has never heard of mutant mice, so he is confused by this.

Lin Ran clarified his thoughts and said: "When we came here a few days ago, there were no mutated rats. At that time, there were mutated snakes and mutated honey badgers."

He feels that if the crisis is not resolved, there will be more and more mutated creatures.

Everyone was silent for a while, and then Lin Ran continued to speak.

"I have a guess, maybe there are other secrets in this forest."

He remembered that he had been trapped underground in the treasure house, and he saw a monster at that time. The monster was obviously still guarding something, and it looked very unusual.

Lin Ran felt that the treasure house was just the surface, and there should be more secrets inside.

"Yeah." Liu Jingfeng pinched his chin, somewhat interested in Lin Ran's guess.

Wang Jinpeng asked what the basis of his speculation was.

Lin Ran patiently explained to them what happened while being trapped underground.

"It's exactly the same as the monster seen in the ancient tomb."

The monsters in the ancient tombs and the mutated creatures in the mountains and forests seem to behave in similar ways.

It makes him feel that this forest hides more secrets.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a chill as they listened.

They began to recall their experiences in the forest.

"Those mutant creatures are very aggressive." Wang Jinpeng said.

Lin Ran nodded, feeling from the bottom of his heart that this was something unusual.

"Is there some kind of special power in this forest?" Liu Jingfeng speculated.

"Power?" Wang Jinpeng frowned, "Boss, do you also like reading novels?"

"You don't think mutant mice are normal, do you?"

"That is, what kind of mysterious power is it?" Wang Jinpeng joked.

Lin Ran thought for a moment and then said.

"I think some experimental drug may have been leaked."

"Experiment? Drug?" Everyone showed doubts.

Lin Ran explained: "I just heard not long ago that there was an invader base here."

Mentioning the intruder reminded them of the unbearable past.

Wanting an easier victory, they ended up conducting some horrific biological experiments.

They had no taboos and conducted experiments without restraint.

Not only are there viruses, but they are even trying to create beings beyond humans.

Everyone was itching to hear this, but they all felt that Lin Ran's explanation was more reasonable.

"If the treasure house is only above, then there should be an experimental base below. These mutated creatures are actually the products of leaked experimental products." Lin Ran continued.

"Then why didn't it happen before?" Wang Jinpeng felt a little strange.

It has been more than 50 years. If nothing happens sooner or later, it will mutate at this time.

Lin Ran sighed. He didn't have a definite answer, just some guesses.

"I was invited here by a man named Aaron. He said that his friend found the treasure house and invited him to come and hunt for it together."

Abao also seems to belong to a mysterious organization, and they have their own purposes.

Being able to find this place is enough to prove that the power behind them is extraordinary.

It's just that they may have accidentally released Pandora's Box and let the experimental medicine that was originally preserved flow out.

"They wanted to gain power through experiments. Why didn't they take them away instead of staying here?" Liu Jingfeng asked.

"Maybe it's because it's too late." Lin Ran couldn't continue pushing.

Everyone was silent, and they realized that there might be a huge conspiracy hidden behind this forest.

People from the treasure hunt party will appear, which means they have also noticed this place.

"We must find out the truth." Lin Ran made up his mind.

"These little devils really don't do good things."

"It's very dangerous ahead. I'm going to see what's going on. If you're worried, just go back." Lin Ran couldn't watch his teammates die.

But he must find the truth.

"Whatever you say, just fuck them." Wang Jinpeng said carelessly.

Everyone unanimously expressed their support and would not let Lin Ran continue the in-depth investigation alone.

"Thank you." Lin Ran looked at the vast woods ahead, but courage surged in his heart.

Seeing that the rain was gradually easing, they began to check their equipment.

The candles and matches were all soaked, and all that could not be used were thrown away.

Put on dry clothes.

After gathering their equipment, they moved on.

After experiencing a thrilling experience in the jungle, they left the cave when the rain stopped.

Continue towards the treasure house.

Returning to the waterhole again, they were worried that rats would appear again.

However, after learning that the mutant mice were afraid of rain, they were no longer as nervous as before and continued to move forward.

Along the way, they were surprised to find a pile of mutated rat corpses.

Some of them had been turned into charcoal, as if they had been struck by lightning.

Others have damaged fur and open mouths, similar to ordinary dead mice.

They stepped carefully over the body.

But when passing by a corpse, Lin Ran suddenly felt something was wrong.

He squatted down curiously and examined the mouse's body.

He actually saw the big rat in front of him with a big pit on his forehead.

There was blood flowing out of it.

This kind of wound was definitely not caused by lightning.

Instead, guns shoot!
