Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu finished speaking, and everyone slowly climbed down from the rocks.

After disposing of these scattered Zombies with a few strokes of their blades, Li Yu thought for a moment, then asked Li Tie to find an iron rod and strike it at the entrance of the cavern.

Clang clang clang~

The sound was loud.

It echoed down below. After striking for a while, there still were no signs of Zombies coming up.

”Big brother, should we still go up?” Li Tie, remembering the dense bats inside and the recent chase by the Zombies, shuddered at the thought.

”Um...let’s go down. In a moment, Dapao and Wang Cheng, go back to the car and bring the high-powered spotlight over,” Li Yu said.

Recalling the pitch-black cavern, even the portable flashlights they currently had, though not low in power, were clearly inadequate in the cavern.

”Oh, okay, wait for us,” Dapao responded to Li Yu’s words without hesitation and immediately headed towards the road where the car was parked with Wang Cheng.

After waiting for a while, Wang Cheng and Dapao returned, each carrying a high-powered searchlight. These devices were very powerful and could easily illuminate up to a hundred meters away, highlighting the area with clarity, not just a vague light.

”Dapao, Chengzi, turn on the lights at the edge of the cavern. Dapao, keep an eye on the entrance, and Chengzi, keep watch around the perimeter for any abnormalities. Tiezi, Gangzi, we’re going down,” Li Yu briefly assigned their tasks.

Li Tie then took another high-powered searchlight and walked inside.

The searchlight turned on, sweeping to the left and right, surprisingly reaching the ends.

It seemed that both sides were not deep; at the ends, there were no Zombies, only some water clinging to the cave walls, occasionally dripping from the cavern ceiling, leaving the ground soggy.

Under the light of the powerful searchlight, everything within a hundred meters was clear.

This provided everyone with a great sense of security.

The sense of fear in humans always stems from the unknown. The less understood things are, the more likely they are to provoke fear.

Suddenly, Li Tie’s light illuminated a spot on the wall to the right-front, revealing a small hole about 1 meter high and 3 meters wide.

The three of them walked forward, reaching the hole and shining the searchlight inside, but they could only see a corner. It appeared there was more space inside, but the view was blocked by rugged rocks.

”Big brother, should, should we go in?” Li Tie asked.

Li Yu lowered his head and bent over to look inside, eventually saying, ”Let’s not go inside for now; let’s keep moving and see if there are any other similar holes.”

Li Tie nodded and continued shining the searchlight inside, the path ahead still not visible to its end. Everyone continued moving forward.

The light from the cavern entrance no longer reached their position; Li Yu and the others had ventured in more than a hundred meters deep.

After walking for another minute, they suddenly saw light ahead, shining down from above.

It was an opening that seemed to be on the mountaintop.

Everyone circled around and eventually reached the deepest part of the cavern and came to an end.

There was nothing there...

The three of them were somewhat speechless. On their way here, Li Yu and the others had also seen other holes similar to the first, although differently shaped. However, they all had one thing in common—they all looked rather peculiar.

It seemed these openings were all naturally formed.

”Let’s head back and take another look at those holes,” Li Yu said.

The group found the largest hole and knocked on it for a while, but still, no Zombies appeared.

Just because of the knocking, many bats flew out from inside, creating a bat frenzy at the entrance where Dapao and the others were guarding outside, nearly scaring them to death.

After the bats flew away, the three exchanged glances—should they go in?

The entrance to the cave is quite narrow, not likely to hide many zombies, and even if there were zombies, the threat wouldn’t be very big in such a cramped environment, as you’d only face one at a time.

Yet, the entrance seems rather small, could it really fit ammunition? This place doesn’t look like it’s meant for storing ammunition...

”Let’s go in, I’ll go first, then Tiezi, you follow last.” Li Tie said.

Li Yu led the way, bending his waist as he walked inside.

As Li Yu walked further, he noticed some doggerel written with charcoal on the wall.

Seeing the doggerel, Li Yu’s mood instantly soured.

Damn it... This definitely means someone has been here before.

But now that they’ve entered, they definitely had to check it out further. Thinking this, Li Yu suppressed his reluctance and sped up as he went deeper.

Inside the cave, the rocks were of all shapes and sizes, and the space was extremely narrow, making it very difficult for the three of them to move.

Walking through, they inevitably brushed against the wet walls, getting dust all over themselves.

In this narrow cave, some areas required them to hunch over to get through, other areas were a bit bigger, and some places were even around five or six meters wide, varying greatly.

They had just reached a slightly wider area.

Suddenly, as Li Yu moved forward, the spot illuminated by his flashlight reflected a light back at him. He looked closely and saw a long object.

The key thing was that this object was moving.

Li Yu hastened his steps and realized it was a snake!

White, glowing white.

It was about two meters long, roughly the thickness of a wrist.

This snake looked rather odd. Its head slightly protruded, appearing to have two small horns.

Its whole body was covered with barbs, and the tail looked extremely strange, as if it had a small head.

At this moment, the snake wasn’t afraid of people. It curled up into a lump a few meters away, spat out something resembling silver apricot seeds, seemingly watching them.

Li Tie, looking at this white snake, recalled some supernatural films he had watched.

”Big brother, is this the descendant of Bai Suzhen?” After saying this, Li Tie laughed twice, but Li Gang and Li Yu didn’t.

Tiezi felt a bit awkward and coughed a few times.

Li Gang seemed to recall something and said, ”Old folks at home say, white snakes have a certain significance, I specifically forgot whether it’s a good or bad omen... but it’s best not to bother about it.”

Li Yu nodded, picked up a rock and threw it by the roadside to scare the snake away; it was blocking their path.

The snake twisted its body, stood up, and spat out a long tongue.

Li Yu was running out of patience; he just wanted to find the ammunition quickly, and even if it wasn’t here, he wanted to finish searching and get out soon.

Li Gang also picked up a stone and threw it, and the white snake immediately lunged at them.

MD, courting death.

Li Yu directly waved the Long Knife in his hand, swinging it twice quickly, chopping the snake into three pieces.

Looking at the snake’s body chopped into three sections, still writhing on the ground.

Li Yu picked up a large stone from the ground and smashed it hard, turning the snake’s head and body into a mushy mess.

”Damn, I hate snakes the most. Damn!” Li Yu cursed.
