Chapter 171: Silence (1)

Translator: 549690339

According to the map, everyone needed to pass through this jungle and move Northwest. After confirming their target, Zhou xueli said,”

“It'd be best if it's fast.”

She frowned, this forest isn't small. Try to get through it before five o 'clock.

When Zhou xuli mentioned the time, someone immediately asked uneasily,

“We'll reach the Research Institute after passing through the forest?”

Zhou xueli didn't even look at the person who asked the question. Her nonchalant attitude made the person who asked the question a little irritable,” “We'll reach the Research Institute after passing through the forest?”

The worker raised his voice and asked again. Wolf one didn't say anything. He raised his gun and pointed it at the worker. The worker was stunned.

Under the heavy pressure, no one dared to ask any more questions. However, even if Zhou xueli didn't say the answer, everyone knew in their hearts that after leaving the forest, they might not necessarily reach the Research Institute.

She mentioned that the forest was not small, and that they could not reach their final destination even after leaving the forest. This proved that they might not be able to reach a safe environment after dark as ATr. Zhou had said at the beginning.

This proved that Mr. Zhou's previous words were just a big empty pie drawn for everyone to coax them.

This fact crushed many people. Everyone knew what kind of danger they would encounter at night.

The lives of ordinary people were like grass on the island. One could tell their status from the fact that someone wanted an answer and was threatened by the bodyguards.

If they encountered any danger, they would probably be the first to be abandoned. In such an environment, no one would go through the trouble to save them.

When the scholars saw this scene, their faces showed pity. The worker who asked the question had a look of despair and suddenly sat on the ground.

“I'm not leaving.” He muttered with a crying expression,”

“I'm going to die anyway. Just kill me.”

Zhou xueli gave him a cold look and put away the electronic device in her hand.

“Let's hurry up and leave.”

Wolf one didn't even look at the man. Obviously, he didn't want to waste a single bullet on this man.

Although many people sympathized with him, and some ordinary workers wanted to speak up for him, when they saw Mr. Zhou and the others move, and the majority of the group had already entered the forest, the others did not dare to stay any longer, and they all followed.

The people who were left behind were stunned for a moment. They cursed and cursed loudly. After crying twice, they quickly grabbed their things and followed.

This time, when they entered the dense forest, many of the team members had died. It might be because of the various dangers they had encountered before, or it might be because of what Zhou xuli had said, or it might be because the Research Institute was very far away from here. They didn't know if they would make it back alive, so everyone was in a heavy mood.

It was different from when they entered the island in the early hours of the morning. At that time, everyone was full of hope. Although some people had mentioned that there might be danger on the island, they had not seen it with their own eyes. So, even in the dark, many people walked side by side. Even if some people were worried, the atmosphere was still quite relaxed.

At this time, everyone was already scared out of their wits by the crocodiles, spiders, and white anteaters. Even though the sky had already brightened, everyone was still walking in fear.

As soon as there was any movement in the surroundings, it was enough to make people turn their heads to look. With every step, someone would poke the leaves on the ground with a branch in advance.

The consequence of mental tension was particularly tiring. The participants and bodyguards were in good condition because of their outstanding physiques.

The scholar-like people and the workers carrying heavy bags were already sweating and panting.

Some people gradually fell behind, but the people walking in front did not dare to stop.

“Wait for me, wait a minute …”

The person who fell behind shouted in despair. The large mountain forest was extremely quiet. At first, only the rustling of leaves could be heard as people stepped on them. When he suddenly cried, it was as if he had woken up the entire forest.

'Wait for me … Wait for me … Wait for me …'

The echoes came from all directions, as if there were people crying for help from the people in the middle. It was extremely creepy. Leaves fell from the towering tree above them. Zhou xueli, who was carrying Mr. Zhou, turned around with killing intent in her eyes,

“Do you want to attract the beasts here?”

The person who was lagging behind was also frightened. Zhou xuli's threat and killing intent made him shiver. Under the strong desire to survive, he didn't know where he found the strength to speed up and catch up with the main group.

As time passed by, the forest was so lush that it almost blocked the sun above them.

Occasionally, a few rays of sunlight would shine through the gaps between the leaves. The forest was quite humid and the temperature was also slightly low, but everyone was sweating and their mouths were dry from walking.

This forest seemed to have no end. No one knew how long they had been walking, but no one dared to ask rashly, nor did anyone dare to suggest that they stop and rest.

Zhou xueli had said that they had to cross the forest before five in the afternoon.

When she said this, her expression didn't look good, which proved that she should know something. It was very likely that there was some danger in the forest. If they didn't leave the forest after dark, something big would probably happen.

In such a situation, everyone was quite anxious. Not only did the workers not dare to clench their teeth and hold on, but even professor Yan, Mr. Zhou, and the others did not dare to ask them to stop.

'Cough', someone suddenly coughed, attracting everyone's attention.

At this moment, even song qingxiao's nerves were tense, let alone the others.

Everyone turned their heads instinctively. The cough came from a scientist beside Mr. Zhou. He looked disheveled and his face and ears were red from walking. His soft black hair stuck to his thin cheeks from his sweat. He was gasping for breath as if he had just been pulled out of the water.

The tight neckline of the protective isolation suit seemed to make it hard for him to breathe. He was carrying some tools on his back, and his back was bent very much. He couldn't maintain the demeanor of a scholar at all. After receiving the attention of everyone, he looked a little embarrassed.

“Scared to death …” One of the workers patted his chest, but he quickly changed his words halfway through his sentence.

“You scared me.”

On the island, after experiencing the stimulation of other people's deaths, it seemed that the word 'death' had become a huge taboo.

Although they were lucky that they did not encounter any danger along the way, this forest was very strange. Other than the towering trees, there were no other living things.

There was no chirping of insects or birds, only the footsteps of song qingxiao and her group, as if they had accidentally barged in. Apart from that, it was extremely quiet.

The scientist's unexpected cough stopped the team, and the rustling sound of his feet stepping on the leaves stopped abruptly.

The quieter it was, the more song qingxiao could sense that something was wrong.

She licked her dry lips, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and released her mental power. She could vaguely hear the sound of water flowing, like a

stream..
