They carefully examined the bones again. There were traces of monster bites on the bones and tattered pieces of clothing were buried under the thin sand. They were grey-black and weren’t the clothing of the base. Lu Feng’s expression became thoughtful because this incident was by no means normal.

However, they had no other clues and could only move on. After another half an hour, something distant appeared in the fog. It was a line of grey spread out on the horizon like the edge of a huge city.

An Zhe said, “I seem to see it.”

This must be the city ruins that Lu Feng had mentioned. Lu Feng told him, “I also saw it.”

“Can we find food and water at the ruins?”

“Yes.”

“Really?”

Lu Feng explained lightly, “I often stay in ruins.”

“…Oh.”

Colonel Lu was a man who freely came and went from the Abyss. Still, it was a happy thing that they wouldn’t starve to death. He walked a little lighter and took a step forward ahead of Lu Feng. At this moment, the ground under his feet suddenly softened! Then it sank. He had fallen down.

An Zhe, “!!!”

His heart was beating fiercely and he was so frightened that he was about to take the shape of mycelium. Then there was the flash of an electric light and a heavy force came from his left arm. It was Lu Feng firmly holding him. An Zhe hung in the air, relieved. Then he was pulled up by Lu Feng. His leg was fine while his arm started to hurt sharply. He sucked in a low breath and Lu Feng reached out his hand, running it all the way from his shoulder to his wrist. “It isn’t broken.”

An Zhe glanced over at that place.

It was a sinister three metre deep pit, covered with some brittle and thin wooden boards and then covered by sand. It looked no different from the surroundings but as soon as you stepped on it, you would fall into the pit.

An Zhe felt strange and saw that Lu Feng was also slightly frowning.

“It is a trap and newly made,” Lu Feng stated.

First, human bones appeared in this place and now there was a trap—a human made product. Was someone alive in the wilderness?

Suddenly, Lu Feng looked over to a certain place. “Who is it?”

There was a mound above the ground. It looked flat in the hills and after Lu Feng spoke, there was no response. Even so, Lu Feng pulled out his gun and ordered in a low voice, “Come out.”

There was no movement.

10 seconds, 20 seconds, half a minute.
