The wailing sound was so miserable that it sent shivers down Chen Yu's spine.
"Suyi, go check what's happening over there," Chen Yu gave his first command.
For these soldiers, Chen Yu's orders were supreme. They saluted and silently left the dilapidated room.
In less than five minutes, Suyi returned.
"Commander, a group of people is battling a mutated beast. One person was eaten on the spot, and the screams just now were from him," the soldier detailed what he knew.
Chen Yu's face changed slightly. Since he knew he was in a post-apocalyptic world, death was expected, but accepting it all at once was not that simple.
Suppressing the discomfort in his stomach, Chen Yu decided to take nine soldiers and cautiously observe the situation. He needed to understand how humans in this world fought against mutated beasts.
Descending the familiar yet unfamiliar stairs, Chen Yu finally saw the outside world. It was a wasteland with almost no intact buildings, except for Chen Yu's house, which was surprisingly well-preserved.
Bang! Chen Yu heard gunshots again. He gestured, and the group silently approached.
At about a hundred meters, Chen Yu hid. Holding a soldier's binoculars, he observed the situation in the distance.
He saw four people firing guns continuously towards the front. In the direction of their gunfire, Chen Yu saw something unexpected.
The so-called mutated beast turned out to be a dog!
Of course, this dog had completely changed. Its size had increased at least five times, fierce fangs protruded from its mouth, eyes turned red, and saliva dripped to the ground, emitting a blue smoke.
This dog's saliva was toxic!
Bullets hit the mutated dog, leaving only a faint bloodstain on its body. Bullets couldn't penetrate the mutated dog's defense!
"Suyi, how does the firepower of their guns compare to yours?" Chen Yu asked.
Suyi carefully observed and said, "The power is slightly inferior to ours, and the accuracy is not high. However, their magazines seem to be modified, with more rounds than ours."
Chen Yu also noticed this. They fired continuously for one or two minutes without running out of ammunition, indicating their concern for the weapon's ammo storage. They were accustomed to a war of attrition.
Qin Wei's face looked unpleasant. Their team of five came out to hunt a mutated beast. After finally finding a first-order mutated beast that could improve their food supply, it unexpectedly evolved into a second-order mutated beast!
A second-order mutated beast was beyond the capability of their ordinary team, unless they had money to buy better weapons.
Qin Wei looked calm on the surface, but the anxiety within her was unknown to others.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and took out something. The young man who looked a bit indifferent shouted excitedly, "Big sister, you actually have such a good thing. Without it, we're done for, brothers."
The other two didn't speak. Their guns kept pouring out bullets.
With their weapons, they could deal with a first-order mutated beast, but facing a second-order mutated beast was nearly impossible, unless they had money to purchase better weapons.
Qin Wei's face looked calm, and no one knew her inner anxiety.
Finally, she bit her teeth and took out something. When the young man saw it, he exclaimed, "Big sister, you actually have such a good thing. Without it, we're done for, brothers."
The other two looked, and their eyes lit up. It was their survival instinct.
In her hand appeared a grenade, but it was different from ordinary grenades. Its surface was light blue, emitting a faint cold air—this was an ice grenade.
Ice grenade, a first-order weapon, when thrown, created an icy zone with a certain probability of freezing the opponent.
This was information that the system had told Chen Yu. However, upon hearing this information, Chen Yu blinked. Did Red Alert have this stuff?
Qin Wei's eyes flashed with a hint of pain. She threw the ice grenade directly at the mutated dog.
Instantly, the area within five meters of the mutated dog turned into an ice and snow scene. Even the mutated dog was completely frozen, turning into an ice sculpture.
"Success!"
The four of them shouted excitedly. The mutated dog being frozen meant they could transport it back alive. The price of a living second-order mutated beast would only be higher!
However, their joy was premature. Cracks appeared on the frozen dog until it shattered with a loud noise.
The four fell silent, a trace of fear appearing in their eyes. Even the ice grenade didn't work. They had no way out.
"If someone saves me at this moment, I'll marry him!" Qin Wei made a vow for the first time in her heart.
The mutated dog approached them, getting closer. When it was less than ten meters away, a gunshot rang out!
The four were stunned. They didn't fire a shot.
Qin Wei reacted the fastest. She knew someone was saving them.
"No way, I just casually made a vow. Is it so effective? Can I still take it back now?" Qin Wei thought of the oath she had just made, feeling a faint sadness. If the person who appeared was an ugly monster, did she really have to get married?
Qin Wei felt uneasy, but then she saw a good-looking man walking out from behind, followed by nine people in military uniforms.
"It's strange. Why haven't I seen this kind of military uniform? Who are these people?" Qin Wei had a thought flash through her mind.
Originally, Chen Yu didn't want to appear, but he had to make contact with the people in this world and understand the situation to deploy the base vehicle. That was his first step.
What he didn't expect was that among these four people, there was actually a beautiful woman.
It had to be said that even with Chen Yu's countless experiences, he had to admit that she was a beauty, comparable to a star.
"I didn't expect to be a hero saving a beauty. They say that after a hero saves a beauty, the beauty will offer herself. Will this happen..."
Thinking of some things in his mind, Chen Yu's soldiers walked out, leaving three around him to protect him. Their duty was to ensure Chen Yu's safety and not allow any harm to come to him.
Seeing three soldiers walking over, the casually-dressed young man kindly spoke, "You're not the opponent of the second-order mutated dog. Don't go over there."
Not long after, he was dumbfounded, feeling a fiery pain on his face. Where did these people come from? Why were they so strong?
