Erin had already led her soldiers into the sewer, the firearms in hand loaded and ready.
Erin’s forked tongue continuously flicked out from her mouth, capturing scent molecules in the air.
This was a unique ability brought about by the Flesh and Blood Calamity, unlike other calamities, which had specific rankings. By biological splicing, unique powers could be acquired extraordinarily.
Her tongue could swiftly capture scent molecules in the air like a snake’s tongue, analyzing the source and direction of these molecules.
The peculiar and strange scent molecules made Erin frown slightly; among these scents was a hint of blood.
Erin ordered her subordinates to take out the map, determined her position, and began to move forward along the map.
The firearm in her hand was already loaded.
As the saying goes, classics always endure. The firearms in their hands looked a lot like the AK47 of the civilized world.
Dubbed the king of guns, the AK47 had a simple structure and could adapt to various harsh environments.
A general from the Lighthouse Kingdom once said that if he ever went to Mars and could take one weapon, he would undoubtedly choose the sturdy and reliable AK47.
When civilization collapsed, chaos arose everywhere, and firearms became rampant. Only with guns could one protect oneself and one’s family.
The most rampant were not those high-precision rifles but rather the crudely made yet sturdy and reliable AK47s.
So, hundreds of years later, those intricate SCAR rifles and M7 rifles disappeared in the dust of history.
On the contrary, the design of the AK47 rifle endured, and on the Wasteland, the AK47 was the most commonly used weapon by gangs, mercenaries, and local troops.
The criticized recoil precision was not a drawback in the face of the physically evolved humans of the apocalypse.
Erin’s pupils contracted, allowing her to see the dark situation underground clearly in the dim sewer.
Hundreds of armed personnel behind her were dispersed throughout the sewer, arranged in formation, advancing toward the Apocalypse Society base.
"Move." Erin ordered, beginning to advance, pushing through the complex, dense network of the entire sewer, clearing the environment bit by bit.
In the filthy, foul underground water, there seemed to be something, making Erin aware. The muzzle instantly pointed at the foul-smelling liquid below.
But after waiting for a while, the water surface remained calm, with no apparent abnormalities, making Erin wonder if she was overthinking.
The strong stench made her tongue, while capturing scent molecules, capture some sewage smell as well.
"A bunch of rats indeed, choosing places that suit rats!"
Erin sneered, scornful of the Apocalypse Society, continuing to advance forward.
At the topmost position, Bode could see the simultaneous advancing status of the three squads through real-time surveillance screens.
Erin, Liu San, and Fang Jinpeng were advancing simultaneously, getting closer to the target point, soon to converge from three directions, forming a siege and clearing the sewers.
There seemed to be no danger along the way; could it be that the people of the Apocalypse Society hadn’t realized they were trapped?
After all, the security team had made a commotion above them. If such a large Apocalypse Society couldn’t even detect this, it was unreasonable.
Bode felt a strange feeling rising in his heart, picked up the intercom, and told the crowd below, "Be careful! Something feels off."
"Reporting, sir, there is no anomaly on Fang Jinpeng’s side..."
"Sir, nothing unusual here on Liu San’s side..."
Fang Jingpeng and Liu San’s voices came through the earpiece in succession, and Erin was just about to report that there was no anomaly on her side either.
"Sir, nothing on Erin’s side..."
Just as Erin began to speak, a scream erupted from nearby, abruptly stopping her words as she quickly turned her head to look.
She only saw members of the security team frantically retreating, chaos everywhere. A foul-smelling monster had sprung out of the sewage. The monster was humanoid, completely crimson, with red skin, and covered with black sewage.
It pounced on an armed member of the security team, its mouth filled with sharp yellow fangs, biting the security member’s neck, tearing fiercely. In an instant, scarlet blood sprayed everywhere.
A torrent of blood spurted out like a spring!
The smell of blood instantly filled the sewer.
The throat of the security team member kept emitting "ho-ho" sounds. He had his carotid artery bitten off, blood gushing into his windpipe, choking his breath. Blood was losing fast, and the light in his pupils was visibly fading.
The expression in his eyes dissipated almost instantly.
With the carotid artery severed, even in a world-renowned hospital, the chance of survival is only one in ten thousand, let alone here.
Without any hesitation, Erin lifted the AK47 in her hands, decisively pulling the trigger.
In an instant, the entire sewer echoed with gunfire like thunder, resounding intensely, with flashes of light repeatedly illuminating the dark sewer.
Countless bullets flew out, hitting that red monstrous creature. Bullets embedded into its red body, yet it seemed impervious to pain, leaping once more and jumping back into the sewage, swiftly swimming in the water.
The water was black, making it impossible to see underwater conditions from above. The rest regained their senses and began wildly firing at the sewage.
