Chapter 346: Guide

However, Liang Yu still had the same expression as before, looking quite wronged.

“Didn’t I just admit it?”

“I just lust after her body, but in this day and age, no one believes the truth.”

An Jintong had already put on her clothes by this point, and she looked at Liang Yu and spoke.

“Your personality is indeed quite terrible.”

“I’ll take that as a given.”

“Since you said you lust after my body, then I must also tell you something.”

As she spoke, she slowly moved closer to Liang Yu.

“I lust after your body too.”

After saying this, An Jintong grabbed Liang Yu and, in front of Su Lan, kissed him, aiming directly for Liang Yu’s lips.

A moment later, Liang Yu felt his lips being blocked. Feeling the other party’s offensive, Liang Yu, continuously provoked, also got fired up and immediately retaliated.

The two of them engaged in a nearly ten-minute intense session right in front of Su Lan, practically treating Su Lan as if she wasn’t even there.

At this point, Su Lan couldn’t take it anymore. These two really didn’t consider her presence; they kept stuffing food into her mouth. So, she spoke up to interrupt them.

Soon, Liang Yu felt a bite on his lip, a sharp sting, and the entangled pair were separated.

He reached up to touch his bitten lip, only to see An Jintong, with a hint of sly smile, tidying her clothes while moving towards Su Lan.

“That’s a small punishment for your earlier offense.”

“Also, I meant what I said, you know.”

An Jintong said with a beaming smile.

Su Lan, who was standing by, had long been dumbfounded and only recovered after a while. An Jintong was serious; when she said she lusted after Liang Yu’s body, she really did. From the looks of it, if she didn’t keep a close eye on An Jintong, she might actually launch a night raid on Liang Yu.

At this moment, Liang Yu also realized he had been a bit impulsive, but he certainly had to take advantage when he could. It was just that a woman who lusted after his body had inexplicably appeared, which gave him a headache for a moment.

An Jintong was not Su Lan. Su Lan would at most talk big and at best offer some benefits. An Jintong was a woman of action who would really go for it.

Feeling helpless, he turned to Su Lan and spoke in a commanding tone.

“You have one more task: keep an eye on her for me.”

“Otherwise, watch out, this black-hearted boss might lock you in a small dark room.”

After quickly finishing, Liang Yu hastily left the third-floor laboratory. He estimated that if he stayed any longer, he really wouldn’t be able to maintain himself.

Time unconsciously arrived at night again.

After it became possible to go out, Qu Baoguo took people to continue repairing the defensive fortifications, while Brother Wu was responsible for patrolling the surroundings.

As dusk began to fall, those who had gone out to search for supplies yesterday gradually returned to the base.

However, when Brother Wu counted the numbers, he found that a team of ten had not returned. He immediately knew something had happened, so he promptly contacted Brother Wu and truthfully reported their disappearance.

Brother Wu frowned upon hearing the news, took out a map, and looked at it repeatedly, asking with some uncertainty.

“What’s going on? Is there any dangerous area on their route?”

Brother Wu shook his head. They had gone over the route before; this safe route was built with lives. If this route was proven dangerous, other routes would also need to be re-evaluated.

At this point, Brother Wu reconfirmed before speaking to Brother Wu.

“These are all regular routes; nothing has ever happened before.”

“This time, for unknown reasons, ten people haven’t returned. It’s not ruled out that they took a different route, or they might be staying outside or are trapped.”

At this moment, both understood that talking so much now was useless. The top priority was to find the ten missing Survivors and bring them back; other matters could be discussed after their return.

Therefore, Brother Wu decided to personally lead a team out to investigate, and while searching for people, also check the safety of the route.

Brother Wu quickly gathered a few capable subordinates, brought ample equipment, and set off along the route of the missing Survivors.

They carefully searched along the team’s regular route, and along the way, it was eerily quiet; even Brother Wu sensed something was wrong.

Soon, when Brother Wu led his subordinates to a fork in the road, he discovered some traces, and the creator of these traces did not seem to be human.

Soon, Brother Wu’s expression became extremely grim. He dared not delay any longer and immediately ordered everyone to quickly return the way they came.

Although the others didn’t understand why, Brother Wu had always been cautious. Since Brother Wu had given the order, they had to obey. All those brought out by Brother Wu turned back without hesitation.

However, less than five minutes after they left, five or six Underground Monsters appeared at the exact spot, still clutching the missing Survivors in their arms.

Upon arriving here, the Underground Monsters released their arms, deliberately allowing these Survivors to escape, while they chased from behind. It was clear from the numb expressions on the Survivors’ faces that this was not the first time they had been let go.

Let’s rewind to when their small team began returning to the base. Initially, everyone was quite happy. Their harvest this time was very good; after handing over half of the resources, the remaining half they kept could improve their lives for the next few days.

Who would have thought that their team would be targeted? After leaving the county town, the surrounding cover began to gradually decrease, and coupled with the massive bodies of the Underground Monsters, they were quickly discovered.

So, this team ran non-stop towards the base. However, after running for ten minutes, someone in the team who had previously fought Underground Monsters and miraculously survived noticed something was wrong.

The Underground Monsters behind them hadn’t come up to catch them for so long; instead, they were surrounding them.

After thinking about it, he could roughly guess why. It turned out these Underground Monsters couldn’t find their base, so they were deliberately scaring them now, making them return, and incidentally leading the way for them.

He knew deeply that this couldn’t continue, otherwise, besides them, everyone in the entire base would die at the hands of these Underground Monsters.

So, this Survivor informed the others of his discovery. Everyone’s faces turned grave upon hearing it. One of them gritted his teeth and said,

“We can’t go back to the base; we must lure them away.”

Nine out of ten people agreed to this method, but there was one selfish person among them.

So, they changed direction and ran towards the wilderness away from the base. The Underground Monsters indeed pursued relentlessly.

It was then that they noticed one person was missing. That selfish person was frantically running alone towards the base.

Because some Underground Monsters were also chasing in that person’s direction, they immediately knew something bad had happened. They had just turned back to run and try to stop that person, but they ran head-on into the Underground Monsters.
