Late at night, Monica returned to the base. At this time, Danny and Louisa were nowhere to be found, and the room was once again filled with silence. Remembering Danny's words during the day, Monica sighed helplessly. She now missed Abraham. As long as he was there, she had never suffered any grievances. Thinking of this, Monica looked at the rocking chair where Abraham used to sit.
"Hmm? What's this?" Monica suddenly noticed a piece of paper hidden in the gap of the rocking chair. She curiously walked over and picked up the paper. Unfolding it, she saw some words written on it.
"Leave." Monica immediately recognized it as Abraham's handwriting.
"Leave?" Monica looked at the two words, puzzled. She didn't understand why Abraham had left behind this message. Did he discover something?
After some contemplation, Monica folded the paper back and put it in her pocket. She felt that Abraham seemed to want to tell her some truth.
The next morning, the members of the embers team woke up early. After each person ate a gene fruit, they prepared to go to the Abyss Cemetery under Fatso's lead. Although everyone was full of terror about this unknown place, when they saw David's resolute expression, they felt a sense of security. With David around, they had nothing to fear.
"Fatso, ride in my car," David said to Fatso, opening the alloy door of the vehicle. He also asked Sally and Sophie to sit together.
Fatso touched the car's alloy-made window, marveling at it, and then took the passenger seat. Soon, under the guidance of David and Fatso, the group drove towards the Abyss Cemetery.
Meanwhile, in a distant direction in D Town, there were continuous deep mountains, and the thick miasma filled every inch of the land. In the miasma, one could faintly hear the sound of anger. Several zombies kept wandering between lonely graves, as if searching for something. Just then, a pair of hands suddenly extended from a tomb, pulling the zombies underground in an instant. The zombies had no time to mourn and disappeared without a trace. Shortly after, several bones were thrown out from the anger.
"It's really desperate for food!" At the entrance of the cemetery, next to a rundown shack, an old man with a cane stood there. He watched the scene just now, shaking his head and muttering. He turned and went back into the shack, placing the cane aside, closing his eyes, and resting on a bamboo chair.
Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes, showing a hint of surprise. "They've come?" He looked up through the tattered window towards the distance. Then, he chuckled softly and closed his eyes again to rest. A large cloud of miasma came, and the shack immediately disappeared from its original location. Even the unknown old man disappeared along with the shack. Only the sound of "crunch, crunch" came from the tomb, as if something was being gnawed upon.
"Go forward another hundred meters and pass by that abandoned village, and we'll arrive at the Abyss Cemetery," Fatso, sitting in the passenger seat, pointed to a village ahead and told David.
David nodded and pressed down on the accelerator, speeding up. The two cars behind quickly followed, but as they passed through the small village, David saw the faint appearance of the Abyss Cemetery. Suddenly, his brow furrowed, and he tightly gripped the steering wheel. He felt an extremely cold air, like steel nails, piercing through the alloy steel plate of the vehicle, and penetrating his skin and bones. Not only him, Fatso's face also showed signs of pain, although it seemed like he had already expected this outcome.
"What's going on?" David couldn't believe that even with the protection of the Golden Defense Layer, he was still affected by this extremely cold air, as if his body and bones were being scraped by a steel knife. He could only imagine that the others wouldn't be able to withstand this extreme cold.
Quickly, David made a decisive decision and signaled the two cars behind to retreat. He had to ensure the safety of his team members. Arnold and Charles, after receiving David's signal, gritted their teeth and endured the pain, slowly driving the cars backward. It seemed that if they were even a little later, they would have frozen to death right there. After completely escaping from the surrounding extreme cold, they finally took a deep breath. The pressure of the extreme cold just now made it extremely difficult for them to even breathe.
"It's too terrifying. What exactly is the Abyss Cemetery?" Charles asked with a trembling hand, his face filled with fear. He then tried to trace the origin of the Abyss Cemetery but couldn't find any clue about it, which made him feel even more uneasy. The others felt the same, especially Sophie, the lowest-ranked among them, who was almost about to faint.
Listening to David's inquiry, Fatso took out the blood and bones he had removed from the ghost zombie yesterday, quickly broke them, and then sucked the marrow into his mouth. This made his pale face gradually recover, and his trembling body finally stopped shaking. David forcibly created a void around his body to keep the extreme cold outside.
"All of this is the resentment emanating from the Abyss Cemetery. But when I came here last time, it wasn't this severe. Could it be that something more powerful has appeared?" Fatso recalled the first time he came to the Abyss Cemetery, looking puzzled.
Listening to Fatso, David silently nodded. The fact that such terrifying resentment was emanating from the place indicated that it was not a place ordinary people could enter. This made him even more curious about the Abyss Cemetery.
"Do we continue forward?" Fatso asked after strengthening himself with the bone marrow, knowing that the Abyss Cemetery had changed and there might be extremely powerful beings hiding inside. Stepping in might mean they would be trapped and unable to escape.
David looked at the faint cemetery ahead, surrounded by miasma-covered hills and mountains, and pondered for a moment. He knew that even if they didn't enter today, he would come back one day. Despite the horror inside possibly surpassing his imagination, he also understood that it might be an opportunity for him to explore the truth of the apocalypse and even enhance his strength.
However, David decided to raise his level to ten before entering. This way, he could be fully prepared. With a thought, David directly absorbed a large amount of high-level crystals invisibly.
[Ding! Congratulations, the host has reached level ten! ]
[Ding! The crit rate of Space Blade has increased to thirty percent! ]
The system's voice quickly sounded in David's ears, and he felt the surging power in his body. There was no time to savor it, as he had already made up his mind to enter the Abyss Cemetery.
