Everyone went in the direction pointed out by Team B’s Ji Yushi. Their destination was clear.
It seems that the friendship between Team B’s Song Qinglan and Ji Yushi had somehow progressed by leaps and bounds after they separated from the original Team 4 members at Runjun Building.

Duan Wen who walked at the front said, “Cap Song, come to think of it, it really is such a coincidence that both you and Advisor Ji in Team 3 and 4 separated from the group. It really must be fate.”
Li Chun who was at the back blew away several zombies and rubbed his shoulders that was sore from the recoil, “Yeah, I wouldn’t have noticed it if Brother Wen didn’t mention that. On both sides, Cap Song and Advisor Ji just happened to be together. It seems that even in a parallel timeline, it is very likely for the same choice to be made!”

No matter when it was, the people in this squad are always ready to talk nonsense.
Even after personally witnessing their own deaths and then fighting a giant spider, and even with unknown danger waiting for them ahead, they were able to quickly talk about other matters.
—–This may be Tianqiong seventh squad’s way to divert attention.

Only by adjusting their mood and adjusting their condition such that they are ready to deal with the next wave that may appear at any point in time can they be regarded as a squad that advances like a sharp arrow.
Ji Yushi felt that he understood this seventh squad a little better.

The surroundings were empty. Ever since that gate closed, they only encountered a couple of zombies along the way and there weren’t any other threats. They were able to solve it with just the use of a knife and didn’t need to use their guns.

Tang Le said, “Then what happened after the separation would also be very similar?”
“Probably not.” Tang Qi said, “Did you forget? When we found Cap Song and Advisor Ji, they were trapped in that small green kiosk.”

Zhou Mingxuan’s small eyes carried a hint of teasing, “Oh, that kind of green kiosk. I also saw a few on the way with Old Duan. The people in this area are very open-minded! Did Cap Song reach an enlightenment after being in there? Maybe after going back, we can retire and devote ourselves to this field to earn a living.”

Ji Yushi: “…….”
What was this? Openly ridiculing your boss or trying to matchmake?
Did this group of people forget that they have a deep homophobic setting?

Song Qinglan carried Shen Mian and didn’t relax for a single moment.
His pupils constricted, and he looked around at their surroundings vigilantly. At the same time, he spoke nonsense, “I did reach an enlightenment. It’s better than inflatable dolls. Once we’re back, I’ll give each of you one.”

Zhou Mingxuan chuckled.
And then he was kicked in the ass by Song Qinglan. It was just like the scene in the training room before they left.

Song Qinglan, “How about giving you the whole teams?!”
Zhou Mingxuan smiled and moved a few steps away, “That’s not necessary. It’s too much. My body can’t take it.”

“Cap Song.”
Tang Qi spoke up. He was seeking his opinion.

Everyone had reached the “first gate on the left” mentioned by Team B’s Ji Yushi. They saw a password panel on the side indicating that it was a secret passageway.
Behind them was an open field and before them was a gate leading to the unknown. In view of Team B’s Song Qinglan’s “filled with mutations of SSS-level difficulty”, everyone at this moment was a little reluctant to leave the safe zone.
Who knew what they would encounter inside there?

Song Qinglan looked through the glass on the gate and saw that it was another clean and tidy corridor. There wasn’t even a single zombie.

Song Qinglan made a hand gesture.
Everyone raised their guns and aimed them at the corridor on the other side of the gate.
