Chapter 1095

~3 min read 491 words

Ning Chen, sitting in the driver's seat and drinking tea brewed by Gu Yanqi, felt slightly comforted in his heart.

His mood visibly improved as well.

"Heh, if you like her, just go chase her," Xiao Han said, unable to hold back as an outsider who had just witnessed everything, seeing Ning Chen's face full of happiness.

Ning Chen glanced at Xiao Han, and this time he did not remain silent.

"If only everything were really that simple."

Xiao Han said nothing more; since Ning Chen was not going to chase her, it meant he had his own considerations, so he would not speak further.

The RV gradually approached the forest, and during this process, not a single infected appeared.

It seemed that the infected who had disappeared in the factory and were already dead were all the infected on this side of the barrier; as for the other infected in City B, they were likely on the other side.

After driving for the entire morning, the RV stopped about a hundred meters in front of the forest.

The trees here grew truly tall, completely unlike trees that should grow in a city, resembling more the trees of a tropical rainforest.

The trees were tall, their leaves dense, filled with mystery and danger.

"I will explore inside first."

Xiao Han got out of the car and spread his hands toward the trees not far away.

His ability attribute was Wood, so exploring inside here required little of his ability, making it quite easy.

After finishing the exploration of the entire forest, Xiao Han's expression was clearly not good.

"What's wrong?" Ning Chen walked forward, seeing Xiao Han looking gloomily at the forest before him.

"There is something suspicious in this forest; my ability can only explore the outer layer, but I don't know what is in the middle; my ability cannot enter."

Ning Chen raised his hand and used his own ability to enter and explore as well; just as Xiao Han said, once the exploration tried to go deeper, it got stuck.

An invisible force blocked him; perhaps it was precisely this force that prevented the barrier of that high-level infected from breaking through this forest.

Back in the car, Ning Chen looked at the dense trees before him; if they did not go through here, they恐怕 could not leave City B at all, since the surroundings were already covered by the barrier.

"How about it? Are we going in?"

Xiao Han leaned against the back of the sofa, legs crossed, with an air of indifference, yet his furrowed brows exposed his inner state, which was far from calm.

"We definitely have to go in, but it is best to follow the outer edge; we don't know what the things in the middle are."

Since even the two of them could not break through whatever it was, it was either not of this world, or its power was too great.
