“This smell”

Realizing that something was wrong, Sumo immediately frowned and called for the team to stop.

The snowflakes falling in the sky have not completely stopped yet.

It is so diffuse that the smell of most living things and the rotten smell of things will be covered up.

It can break through this barrier and clearly transmit the smell for hundreds of meters.

It’s hard to imagine that if it weren’t for the snowy weather, I would be able to smell it far away at the foot of the mountain.

"Invite the second team to come over, don't act rashly yet"

Soma gave the order.

The second team, which had been taking a detour, also discovered the problem in the cave. After receiving the signal from the main team, they completely took off their disguise and began to move forward at full speed.

In less than five minutes, the two teams successfully converged a hundred meters away from the cave.

And here, even those with a dull sense of smell can clearly smell the stench of blood coming from the cave.

"Director, I'm afraid there is something wrong here."

The smell is so overwhelming that most people's subconscious reaction is to take a half-step back and start taking the mask strap from their waists.

But only Feng Tianmin and a few others stared at the dark cave entrance with cautious faces, carefully using their noses to distinguish the information conveyed by this smell.

He shook his head, indicating that he was not sure.

Somo took the telescope from the small leather pocket on his waist and began to look at the dark entrance of the cave.

Like the cliff territory, the outside of the cave in this murderous territory is also carved with crooked characters and symbols, representing the identity of the people living inside.

However, most of the fonts are now covered with snowflakes, which is obviously accumulated because no one has been on duty to clean them for a long time.

Observing the wall near the outside, there are basically no signs of burning, which means that there was no accident such as a fire that caused the current appearance.

"Call Liu Yai and Liu Quan over!"

After continuing to observe for a while and getting some key information, Sumo gave instructions without raising his head.

Soon, the two Liu brothers who were at the back of the team stepped forward.

"Did more Westerners live in this territory before?"

Liu Quan was stunned and nodded quickly: "It seems to be the territory of foreigners. The last time we passed by, we really didn't see any of us Chinese in the crowd of confrontations."

"When they were entrenched in this area, did they provoke any relatively powerful gathering place?"

Liu Quan thought about this question for a while, and then said uncertainly: "Probably not. Although there are many human gathering places in these thousands of miles of mountains, only the origin camp in the gentle center of the mountains can be called relatively powerful.

, and further out there are basically very few gathering places with more than a thousand people and suitable armed forces.”

"In addition, Dawang Mountain is already on the outskirts. If someone really comes to seek revenge, we are so close that we won't be able to receive any news!"

They are all neighbors. It is not easy to clean up a camp of two to three hundred people quietly.

Either they are like the group of mysterious people who came out of the ruins, possessing technological weapons of unknown power that can produce dimensionality-reducing strikes.

Either there are too many people, and you can use your strength to crush the opponent head-on without causing any ripples.

Other operations, such as segmentation tactics, food poisoning, air poisoning, etc., all have many constraints.

It is an operation that seems very simple when you think about it, but if you are not careful when implementing it, it will have the opposite effect.

"Let's go in and take a look!"

After thinking about it for a while, Somo felt convinced and no longer hesitated.

Wow!

The order was given, and the team of hundreds of people began to divide into ten pairs in an orderly manner, sprinting for the last 100 meters in an arrow shape.

Because I was wearing a mask, the smell was almost blocked.

Even if there are still other toxic ingredients remaining in the smell, it will not pose a major threat in a short period of time.

"Teams 1, 2, 34 follow me inside, teams 5, 67 and 56 are on guard outside, and teams 8 and 90 use the cave as the coordinate origin to search for suspicious traces within 500 meters of the surrounding area."

When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, everyone could clearly see the blood that had solidified on the ground.

Like a bloody centipede.

The traces were crooked and twisted, and accompanied by several horrific bloody handprints, it looked like a scene from a horror movie.

Fortunately, it was still daytime and there were many people present, so the atmosphere would not spread.

Take out the flashlight.

Light up the torch.

Adjusting the rifles on their backs to the firing mode, four teams of forty people, including the two Liu brothers, began to cautiously explore inside under the leadership of Sumo.

"There should have been a battle here, and the opponent should have a gun in his hand!"

After only four or five steps into the cave, Sumo noticed the marks on the cave wall. He took a step forward, took off his gloves and lightly rubbed the marks.

This mark is familiar to anyone who has used a gun. It is the scorch mark left by the bullet grazing the wall.

If you put it to the tip of your nose and smell it, the slightly irritating smell will match it.

"Guns versus bows and arrows?"

"I said that this group of people robs passers-by every day, and sooner or later something will happen. It seems like this is retribution!"

Not knowing the seriousness of the matter, Liu Yai was laughing and joking and did not take this discovery seriously.

In his opinion, everything that is happening in the Fierce Man's Territory is just a simple act of seeking revenge. It is the leader of the lord who leads his people to provoke trouble everywhere, which leads to big trouble.

It’s not worth being so cautious!

However, Liu Yai's confidence and courage were destined not to last long.

It took less than five seconds before and after.

Just as he took a few steps forward carelessly, turned a corner, and was about to show off, he suddenly screamed, scaring everyone's hearts.

"What's wrong?"

At the first moment, Somo subconsciously grabbed the butt of the gun in his hand and looked cautiously towards the direction from which the sound came.

"Here, there is someone here!"

"Is there anyone?"

With a wink towards the back, Sumo put his finger on the trigger, ready to shoot at any time.

In the cave, under such circumstances, if there are still people who can live in it.

Either he is a ruthless person who is used to life and death, or he is the murderer who caused all these tragedies.

Both of them, no matter which one they are, pose extremely high threats.

For fear of being ambushed, the soldiers holding torches and flashlights at the rear were also cautious and formed a three-person covering formation and slowly moved forward.

"Director, there is a mummy!"

Coming to the corner where Liu Yai sat down, under the firelight, the "person" in Liu Yao's mouth was naturally invisible.

Taking two steps forward, Sumo immediately saw clearly what the mummy looked like.

"Has all the flesh and blood been drained from the body?"

Look up.

The pale skin has completely lost its elasticity and clings tightly to the frame, revealing two black eye sockets.

The sunken chest and abdomen seemed to have been hit hard by a hammer, and crooked dry lines could be seen all over it.

Look down.

The dry thighs were like two branches, no longer as thick as an adult's arm, and the raised knee joints were like two javelins, poking straight into the ground.

Even the big feet, which seemed to be quite large before, became only the size of a child after losing their activity and muscle filling.

"There's a cut on his neck!"

Feng Tianmin, who followed him forward, had no fear in his heart. While everyone was still looking at him, he picked up a branch and gently poked the mummy's neck.

A flip.

From here, everyone can see an obvious wound with their own eyes.

Standing next to him, Liu Yai also looked at it immediately, but just by looking at it, he exclaimed:

"gear!"

The standard hexagonal gear is a symbol of modern industrial precision and is full of a unique sense of beauty.

If this thing were placed in a toolbox or parts box, no adult from modern society would take a second look at it.

But when placed on the neck of the mummy, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Is this the symbol on the head of that mysterious group of people?"
