Although they suffered heavy casualties in the ant nest, luckily most of them were still alive. Everyone who was still conscious at this time couldn't help but have the joy of surviving the disaster on their faces.

But just a moment later, thinking about their current situation, worry immediately occupied everyone's hearts again.

The small canteen building where they were hiding had long since collapsed, leaving only the remains, which could no longer accommodate them. And it was not easy for the group of them to find a new shelter through this dangerous, mutated forest.

Although the battle in the ant nest was fierce, only a few hours had passed.

At this time, the sun has begun to set in the west. In an apocalyptic world full of mutated creatures, darkness represents a doubly dangerous situation.

The only uninjured people in their team were Wei Qingqing, who had almost no combat power and water powers, Xiaowen, who only had detection ability, and Guoguo, who had no awakening at all.

With their strength, they would be lucky if they could make it through the woods alive, not to mention that in addition to An Cheng, who could barely walk, they had to take care of three other people who were unable to move.

"It's up to us next!" Guoguo was not intimidated by the difficulty. Instead, she was a little eager to try. She rolled up her sleeves and was about to hug Du Jiujiu who collapsed on the ground.

"Hey! Do you have any common sense?" Wei Qingqing was startled by her actions and quickly stopped her.

"They are so injured that they cannot be moved casually. Let's find something to drag them with. Otherwise, we alone will not have the strength to carry them all the time."

Although Guoguo was still a little unwilling, she had to admit that Wei Qingqing was indeed more thoughtful than she thought.

"But, we don't have anything now." Xiaowen looked around and found nothing handy, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Leave this to me..." An Cheng's voice still contained a hint of weakness that could not be concealed. However, the current situation did not allow her to rest. Every second was a matter of life and death.

An Cheng looked up at the big tree next to them. Although it had grown extremely huge due to evolution, it could still be vaguely seen that it was originally a poplar tree.

The leaves of the poplar tree are wide in shape, and after evolution they have become as big as a single bed. It is expected that the toughness of the leaves will also increase a lot, and it is perfect for carrying a few unconscious people.

The only regret is that this tree is too tall. Even the lowest leaf is about seven or eight meters above the ground, so it is not easy to pick it.

An Cheng roughly estimated the height of the blade with his eyes, and then weighed the weight of the weapon in his hand. At this time, it was in the shape of a spear, and most of the spear head was corroded by the acidic body fluid of the queen ant, and the metal volume was already reduced.

Reduced a lot.

"Xiaowen, look... is this tree safe?"

Just in case, An Cheng first checked with Xiaowen about Dashu's situation. She really didn't have the energy to fight any more unnecessary.

After receiving Xiaowen's affirmative answer, An Cheng's silver light began to spread on the surface of the metal spear. As the silver light lit up, the spear slowly turned into a slender metal wire, and under An Cheng's control, it moved towards the lowest blade.

Stretch out.

Originally, such a transformation process was just an instant for An Cheng. But now, her physical strength and energy were running low, and even this small movement made her face flush.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. Just as she expected, the petioles of the three leaves were easily cut off by the wires and fell to the ground. The wide leaves were just big enough for a person to lie flat on them.

After placing the unconscious person, they were faced with another problem: where to go next.

The closest ones to the cafeteria are the girls' dormitory and the boys' dormitory. However, they had killed Yao Meng and Wang Xiong before, so they might be resented by others. If those villains add insult to injury, they would be in trouble.

"Why don't we... let's go to the subway station outside the school gate as planned." Wei Qingqing became a little anxious as time passed by.

"It seems that this is the only way we can do it." An Cheng sighed, turned the metal wire into a scimitar again, and walked at the front of the team.

The journey went smoothly at the beginning. Under Xiaowen's mental detection, they avoided several creatures with large energy fluctuations.

However, the mutated grass slowed down their progress. As the sunlight became darker, the number of mutated creatures on the ground began to increase.

"There are strong energy fluctuations on both the left...front left and front right. Do we...should avoid it?" Xiaowen's voice suddenly sounded when we were very close to the school gate.

"This... we can go out soon. If we don't go through here, we have to go a long way..." Guoguo frowned in embarrassment. She had been tense this afternoon, and now she was already

I'm tired and hungry. If I take another detour, I don't know how long it will take to reach the subway station.

"There is no other way. Now we can only choose to go around." An Cheng gritted his teeth and changed the direction. Although she was well aware of the dangers that the detour might bring, every cell in her body reminded her that she could not

Let’s keep fighting.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the sun had completely sunk below the horizon. A full moon slowly appeared in their field of vision.

This moonlight seemed to be affected by energy. It was not the light yellow they were familiar with before, but crimson like blood.

The bloody moonlight shrouded the woods, making everything appear even more strange and terrifying.

Guoguo, the timidest one, held the petiole of the poplar leaf with one hand and tightly grasped Xiaowen's skirt with the other, following the others in the team step by step for fear of falling behind.

While walking, An Cheng suddenly stopped and listened for a while, then frowned and looked at Xiaowen.

"Didn't your mental power detect anything unusual nearby?"

Xiaowen was stunned for a moment and shook her head: "There are no living creatures within ten meters of here."

Xiaowen's mental detection will continue to consume energy. In order to extend the detection time, Xiaowen narrowed the detection range to ten meters, which can only ensure that they can detect stronger strange beasts in time and avoid them in advance.

Hearing Xiaowen's words, An Cheng's frown deepened: "Since just now, I have found that it is a bit strangely quiet here. How come there is not a single creature in the woods?"

Only then did Xiaowen realize that something was wrong, and quickly increased the detection range. After a while, cold sweat began to flow from her temples.

"No, we are surrounded!"
