It’s a Licker.
Li Ruoshu was more than familiar with these monsters; a Licker's movements were distinctive, easily recognizable at a glance.
"If this is the experimental base from the Beginner Mode, then we might be facing a dozen Lickers."
Li Ruoshu's gaze deepened slightly.
From the timeline, this was clearly the point where the virus from the laboratory had leaked and then infected the entire city.
The laboratory was completely dark, indicating that the Red Queen had been shut down, and a dozen Lickers and a large number of zombies occupied the laboratory.
"Ruo Shu, why are you so sure there's something important in here?"
Facing the pitch-black underground laboratory, Chu Ruoxue's heart tightened slightly. In terms of combat ability, she was the weakest among them, so she always felt some fear when facing dark places.
Moreover, logically speaking, the nature of this competition was a confrontational one.
The most important thing right now was to search for powerful weapons and then quickly eliminate the other teams.
That was the most crucial task.
Exploring such a dangerous place was clearly irrational unless there was some groundbreaking item present.
"I don't know what's in here, but..." Li Ruoshu paused, then said, "Back in the Beginner Mode, I found that many important areas inside were inaccessible. There must be some critical information hidden there, especially about this virus.
No Lord would expend so much effort on meaningless structures, which is why I wanted to go in and see..."
Chu Ruoxue nodded helplessly.
Li Ruoshu was right about one thing: when a Lord constructs a Dungeon, they only build details in critical areas, otherwise, it would be too much of a waste of effort.
Especially for unfamiliar things, constructing them is truly very energy-consuming, not something an ordinary person can accomplish.
So, when exploring a Dungeon, just go to places with more details and unique features.
You'll definitely find key clues.
But the problem was...
In the eyes of Chu Huairou and the others, every part and every corner of this city was filled with details.
It made it impossible for them to determine where more effort was expended and where less.
It was as if this city had actually existed in reality.
Just from these details, Chu Huairou had to admit how terrifying the wisdom of the Lord who designed this Dungeon was.
Such a massive Different World city, yet it took shape in his mind in just a few days?
This was simply a genius.
Chu Huairou was certain that in the hundreds of years of Lord World's history, such a genius had never appeared.
Regardless of the period.
An unknown Great World would at least take several years to complete its construction.
How could it be done so quickly and with such detail?
Amidst Chu Huairou's exclamations, everyone turned on their tactical flashlights and stepped into the darkness.
Since the Beehive Laboratory used such a complex password, it meant that it indeed had places worth exploring, which was beyond doubt.
The zombies at the entrance had already been cleared.
As they entered, the darkness silently swallowed them, with only the beams of a few flashlights constantly vigilant.
They held a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other.
The air was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard.
The flashlight beam swept past.
Zhang Shiya saw another shadow flash by at the edge of her vision.
She swallowed, nudged Zhang Shiyu next to her, "Xiaoyu, why isn't it attacking us? Is it going to come over and say hello later?"
Compared to the timidity on Zhang Shiya's face, Zhang Shiyu was clearly much more optimistic and cheerful.
She held a submachine gun in her hand, her face flushed with an unusual excitement, "If it dares to come over, I'll shoot it."
Zhang Shiya nodded and followed closely behind the others.
"Found the train."
Before long, a long train appeared before them.
Li Ruoshu recognized it; this was the train that appeared during the tutorial in the Beginner Mode.
At that time, the train was moving forward.
"Look for the start switch, where is it?"
The computer in Chu Ruoxue's arms quickly connected to the train's central motherboard.
Fortunately, although there were no lights inside the laboratory, there was actually electricity.
Starting it up was not difficult, nor did they need to perform any repairs.
After all, Chen Yu also knew.
This would be too difficult for the Adventurers from another world.
A few minutes later.
The train was powered on.
It began to move towards the depths of the Beehive Laboratory.
However, what Li Ruoshu and the others didn't notice was that as the train slowly started, five figures jumped onto the train.
They hid in the last car.
This scene was only known to the Adventurers watching from outside.
"It's the Jiu Xuan Team."
"What are they doing? Are they planning to ambush the Black Rose Team?"
"When Black Rose was opening the door earlier, several members of Jiu Xuan were watching from afar. I guessed then that they definitely had something in mind."
"It seems their grievances will be settled in this laboratory."
An Adventurer suddenly said.
"Grudges? Tell me more about the grudges!"
The person replied, "Haha, it's nothing really. You should know that Chen Yuxuan of the Jiu Xuan Team was Black Rose's ace, right? It's just that later, when Li Ruoshu appeared and surpassed her, Chen Yuxuan, in a fit of pique, left Black Rose, and that's when she and her brother formed the Jiu Xuan Raiders Group.
Chen Yuxuan's biggest inner demon these past years must be Li Ruoshu; she must dream of winning against her just once."
Upon hearing him finish.
The Adventurers finally understood.
"I knew it! Why would Chen Yuxuan suddenly establish her own faction for no reason?"
"So that's why."
"No wonder from the very beginning, the Jiu Xuan Raiders Group's objective was consistent with Black Rose's, both heading towards this laboratory."
"Indeed, the opponent is the one who understands the opponent best."
The Jiu Xuan Team, who had secretly boarded the train, was not discovered by Black Rose.
After boarding, they also stayed in one car, not leaving.
The train moved slowly.
The Zhang Shiya sisters, holding submachine guns, came out of the front of the train and began to patrol.
The scenery in the tunnel rapidly flew backward.
The light emitted by the train illuminated the surroundings.
Looking out through the windows, they could see many zombies staring blankly at the train.
