After arriving on the island, Mr. Zhou had become the absolute authority in everyone’s hearts, which also made Zhou xueli, who was close to him, have an extraordinary status.

After she finished speaking, there was an awkward silence for the first time. Zhou xueli couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable. She frowned and looked at professor Yan, Wolf one, and the remaining workers who had survived. Finally, her eyes fell on song qingxiao and the others. She paused for a moment and said,”

“Let’s leave the forest first.”

The sun was about to set, and the last ray of light on the horizon seemed to be swallowed by darkness. It was not a wise decision to stay in the forest.

Although everyone was in despair, they were not willing to just sit and wait for death. Supported by the desire to live, many people got up.

Song qingxiao looked at the scene below the cliff with some regret. Number Four’s body had been melted by something in the water. The semi-transparent living thing in the pool should be a genetic mutation of an aquatic creature.

The hexagram magic array in his sea of consciousness still needed three more mutated creatures to be fully lit up. He had only completed 56% of the mission.

If they could kill the mutant creatures in the water and eliminate the black flying insects, the trial-taker’s mission progress would be greatly improved.

Unfortunately, these flying insects were extremely strange and fierce. The tragic death of the worker made the other three participants, who had the same regret as song qingxiao, give up on the idea!

Song qingxiao remembered the attack by the Wolf Pack by the stream today. At that time, the bodyguards had killed three huge gray wolves, but there was no Wolf Totem lit up in the participant’s mission prompt, which proved that the Wolf Pack was most likely not completely eliminated at that time.

At that time, there should still be wolves hiding behind the bushes, not showing themselves.

From the previous three missions that had been lit up, song qingxiao could roughly figure out the rules of the mission.

He had to either kill the leader of the mutant creatures or wipe out the entire group of creatures. Only then could the progress of the mission be pushed forward.

However, after killing the three wolves, the trial-taker’s mission did not change at all. Song qingxiao speculated that the hidden Wolf was most likely the leader, and its combat power was no less than the three wolves.

Mutated genes, ferocious bestiality, and in the process of mutation, it was very likely that, as professor Yan had said, the Alpha Wolf would start to evolve to a higher level in such an environment.

In that situation, it knew how to protect itself, which meant that it had a certain level of intelligence. The reason it did not appear did not mean that it was afraid. It could be that it was looking for an opportunity to take revenge!

Song qingxiao shuddered at the thought.

She raised her head and looked down. The water was deep, and the insects were buzzing around the corpse.

Perhaps it was because the sky was getting dark, but the forest in the distance looked like a thick shadow.

She felt that there was a pair of Scarlet eyes in the forest, coldly looking at her group of people.

The pores on her back were wide open, and cold sweat seeped out from them, wetting her clothes. The wind was cold, and the goosebumps on her arms were all over. She grabbed her arms, but she couldn’t calm them down.

The wolf might be hiding in every corner that they could follow and see. Song Qing opened his eyes wide, trying to find the Wolf’s location.

However, her psychic power couldn’t extend too far. She held her breath and listened carefully, but she could only hear the sound of flowing water, the buzzing of insects flapping their wings, and the rustling of leaves when the wind blew through the forest.

The people around him could not hide their fatigue. A team that had been through so much despair and devastation, and a vicious, vengeful, and intelligent Alpha Wolf hiding in the dark who wanted to seek revenge … Song Qing frowned.

After experiencing this wave of danger, everyone was even more jittery and didn’t dare to be careless.

When they walked, everyone became more careful, afraid that they would accidentally kick something they shouldn’t touch.

Fortunately, even though the forest was large, they still managed to leave after about 20 minutes.

The sky was already dark, and the surrounding road was not clear. Although the light in the dark might attract the attention of mutant creatures, people always had an inexplicable fear in the dark.

Especially on such a small island, the psychological trauma caused by the darkness was multiplied.

In such a situation, not to mention the ordinary workers, even Wolf one and the others took out their flashlights to illuminate the road. After the light was back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although no one spoke a word, they were all panting hard to suppress. Zhou xueli’s legs were like lead, and every step she took was extremely difficult.

She had been holding the map, lighting it up from time to time to look at it. She could not hide her anxiety.

After climbing out of the forest from the cliff of the small waterfall, a gust of wind mixed with the smell of the sea blew over. The people who were drenched in sweat could not help but shiver, and many of them subconsciously hugged their arms.

The exit of this forest was a large flat rocky ground, as if it had been cut off by nature with the work of the gods. It was a platform that was clean and barren.

In front of and to the right of the platform were cliffs. As far as the eye could see, the sea stretched as far as the eye could see under the night sky, and the loud sound of the waves hitting the cliffs.

Everyone stood for a moment. Occasionally, when a huge wave hit, they would hear a ‘boom’ sound, like thunder in their ears. The huge wave hit the cliff, shaking the platform. The gravel at the edge of the cliff fell down with a ‘shua shua’. This momentum made everyone’s legs weak, almost to the point of kneeling down.

On the left side of the platform was a towering mountain range. In the darkness, the peak of the mountain seemed to connect with the sky, towering into the clouds.

There was a forest behind them, so it was impossible for them to go back the way they came. In front and to their right were cliffs, and below them was the sea. In other words, the only path left for them was to enter the mountain.

However, it was already late, and everyone was tired, hungry, and tired. Their hearts were also filled with fear. It was not a wise move to enter the mountain now.

Everyone subconsciously turned to look at Zhou xueli. Zhou xueli said helplessly,”

“To reach the Research Institute, we need to cross this mountain.”

However, the majority of the people were pale, their faces filled with fear, unease, and exhaustion. It was clear that it would be difficult for them to cross the mountain in one go.

Professor Yan and the others sat on the ground, gasping for breath with their mouths open like fish out of water.

In such a situation, it was probably impossible for him to move.

Although Zhou Xue Li was barely able to stand up, she was still an arrow at the end of its flight, so she helplessly said,

why don’t we all rest here for the night and recuperate? we’ll cross this mountain after dawn tomorrow.

She pointed in the direction of the mountain.

“The Research Institute is over there. You’ll see it when you reach the top of the mountain.”

Although everyone was skeptical of her words, it was undeniable that many people felt that they had seen a glimmer of hope because of her words.

With a ‘boom’, the huge wave came again, and the cliff made a’ buzzing ‘sound. The ground seemed to be shaking, and many people were so scared that they squatted down, not daring to get up..
