Chapter 166 Backpacker

Not only was there someone in the room, but it sounded like a normal, living person.

At least Feng Ling thought that it was impossible for the hunter to cry and yell like that.

Su Yuqing shouted from below: "Feng Ling, tell the people in the room that we were sent by the Supervisory Bureau."

Feng Ling did as he was told and knocked on the window, saying, "We are sent by the Supervisory Bureau. Open the door."

There was a commotion in the wooden house, and Feng Ling heard the people inside yelling:

"It's someone from the Supervisory Bureau! Someone is here to save us!"

"Wow, wow, the rescue team is finally here! That's great! I want to go home!"

"Open the door quickly, open the door for the rescue team!"

Then there was a flurry of clattering sounds, as if someone had tripped.

The latch behind the wooden door was pulled up, and the door finally opened. The warm air in the room rushed out all at once, making Feng Ling startled.

So warm.

I didn’t expect a small wooden house could be so warm. It is worthy of being the safe zone set up by the system.

There were two men and two women standing in the room.

Although the sound just now seemed very miserable, the four people had rosy faces, their clothes were clean and tidy, and they did not look embarrassed at all.

Feng Ling felt strange.

Even hunters may not be able to escape unscathed after entering the maze, but these people were completely unharmed.

The people in the room were also surprised to see Feng Ling. There was a kind of fragile fear in their eyes.

One of them clenched the door and asked tremblingly: "...Are you really sent by the Supervisory Bureau?"

Feng Ling thought for a moment, took off the animal bone mask on his face, and said, "We are hunters recruited by the Supervisory Bureau. We are carrying out the task of clearing out the polluted bodies. Who are you? Why are you here?"

“We are here for tourism…”

"Can you get us out of here? We've been stuck here for a week!"

Feng Ling put on his mask again and said, "Not today. It's already dark and we are not familiar with the surrounding area. I cannot guarantee your safety if you travel under such circumstances."

They were anxious, "Can you send us away tomorrow?"

"Not tomorrow either," Feng Ling continued to ruthlessly refuse, "The maze is full of pollution. You have to wear protective clothing before you can leave here. When the protective clothing is delivered, you can leave."

These people looked confused.

"What...what do you mean? You said this is a maze? Isn't this the Galkan Valley?"

Feng Ling couldn't explain it to them in a few words, so he turned around and pulled Su Yuqing up first. His physical condition was very poor, so it was a good opportunity for him to come in to warm up.

The little wooden house was soon filled with people.

It was getting dark outside quickly.

Except for the light from the cabin that illuminated a circle of strange-looking snowmen, everything further away was plunged into darkness and nothing could be seen.

Xu Yiming explained the situation of the maze to the four backpackers and gave them his food and water.

These four people are two couples who love outdoor hiking. They learned on the Internet that there is a niche hiking route here, so they came here specifically to challenge it.

Unexpectedly, my luck was so bad that I accidentally entered the maze area and encountered monsters.

But they were very lucky, because they found this wooden house while escaping, and accidentally entered the safe zone without being genetically contaminated. In addition, they prepared enough dry food for this trip, so they were able to stay in the wooden house for such a long time.

However, if rescue does not come, they will not be able to hold on any longer.

There was little food left, and most importantly, their spirits were on the verge of collapse under the tremendous fear and pressure.

Xu Yiming comforted them: "Tomorrow I will contact other hunters and ask them to find a way to send in a few sets of protective clothing from outside. You just stay in the cabin and wait for news."

Liang Jiaqin complained on the side: "After the research institute surveyed and found that there was pollution here, it listed this place as a dangerous area. The main roads were all closed. You guys are really amazing. You actually managed to sneak in."

Both couples felt embarrassed. One of the young men explained awkwardly: "We took a wild road. The blogger who recommended this route didn't say that there was martial law here..."

Xu Yiming said to Liang Jiaqin: "Don't blame them. In order to prevent panic, the Supervision Bureau only closed the main road and did not issue a notice. The fence was not built until after the expedition team set out."

Wen Xiuyan said with emotion: "You are really lucky this time. Most of the residents in the nearby town have been infected and can only be isolated and wait for death. Next time, don't go to such a remote place to play."

One of the young girls in the couple immediately responded: "I just want to go home now. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, I don't want to go out! Can we leave tomorrow?"

Wen Xiuyan sighed, "I don't know either. There is a monster called Snow Girl at the foot of the mountain. It is very dangerous. I guess we have to kill the monster before we can leave here safely... By the way, what does the monster you met look like? Could it be a Snow Girl?"

"No, I don't know... I didn't see its face clearly, but it looked like a woman... Anyway, it was scary..."

While listening to their conversation, Feng Ling took off her winter clothes and spread them on the floor as a mattress.

There is nothing in this wooden house, it is literally bare.

Why is it so warm if there is no heating?
The perceived temperature is around 20 degrees, which is very close to the temperature outside the maze.

Feng Ling guessed that the system might have dug a hole in the maze and grafted the outside space in.

But if that's the case, why can't we see any obvious air wall? Could it be hidden in the cracks in the wall?

She couldn't help but touch the wall of the cabin, feeling curious.

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of Su Yuqing staring blankly at her phone.

"Did you get through on the call?" Feng Ling asked him softly.

Su Yuqing shook his head slowly, a dull expression on his face.

Huangfu Miaomiao pulled at the corner of Feng Ling's clothes and whispered to her, "He looks so scary."

"Hmm..." Feng Ling retracted his gaze and lowered his head to whisper to Huangfu Miaomiao, "Humans are like this. They can drive themselves crazy without the need for pollution values."

Su Yuqing: “…………”

Please don't talk like you're not human!

Thanks to Feng Ling, Su Yuqing, who had a high fever, managed to cheer up a little.

He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Of the four areas in the maze, only Area C remains... If calls to Area C are also unavailable, it means that Ye Zheng's phone is indeed broken. We are now using the signal source as a basis for judgment, which may be wrong."

Xu Yiming sighed, "You should get a good rest tonight. Even if we want to go to Area C, it won't be that fast. We have to find a way to deal with the Snow Girl here tomorrow, otherwise it will be difficult to leave here safely."

Wen Xiuyan took out her cell phone and said enthusiastically, "Let's share the information here with other hunters. This way, as long as there are hunters entering Area B and in the same area as us, they will receive the message we sent."

Liang Jiaqin was in a dilemma, "How should we send it out? There are more than 80 hunters participating in the operation..."

"Just send them messages in the order of the ranking list," Wen Xiuyan thought quickly and spoke quickly, "We have five hunters, plus Captain Su, there are a total of six mobile phones that can be used to send messages. On average, each person only needs to send messages to a dozen people. It will be very fast."

Wu Wei also took out his cell phone, "Then send it..."

In the cabin, the four backpackers couldn't help but blurt out: "You also have this kind of mobile phone."
