The route to the underground base was very smooth. There were no ambushes or traps along the way. Other than the wormshit that filled the tunnel, there was nothing else.
From the exit to the resting area, everyone walked in the quiet and dark base. Everyone’s tactical helmet turned on night vision, but the visibility was limited. From the helmet, it seemed as if there was no limit to the darkness in front of them, and they could only walk straight to hell.
They did not say anything. Although the communication channel was still working, everyone could only hear the faint breathing of the other team members from the channel. Then he mixed it with his own heavy breathing, forming a strange melody. However, this melody did not make people happy. Instead, it made them feel heavy. Just as the members of the vanguard team were under immense pressure from the endless darkness, Anthony suddenly raised his left hand, signaling the team to stop.
When the line stopped, the invisible pressure suddenly vanished like broken glass.
Anthony’s gaze fell upon the messy dining hall. The metal cabinets blocking the entrance looked like temporary fortifications, and the countless bullets on the ground was a testament to the intense battle that had taken place here. Judging from the long and thin cracks on the wall, it should have been a masterpiece of the Scythe Worm. However, the multiple and chaotic slashes on the outside of the store required at least hundreds of Scythe Worms to attack together to achieve this effect.
The outside of the restaurant was filled with corpses. Most of them were from scythes and Green Tornado, but there were still some living corpses inside. Anthony was puzzled. It was already strange enough that a living corpse from the second floor would appear in the third floor. Strangely, they seemed to be in conflict with the Scythe Worm, and Anthony did not think that the living corpses were smart enough to create a defensive fortification.
From the looks of it, it seemed like someone was commanding them. However, there was no corpse of Team Zero in the dining room. This made Anthony feel slightly disappointed.
He gestured, and the procession moved on.
