The more he moved forward, the denser the fog . When he reached the mountainside, the visibility was less than two meters .
Stepping into the uphill muddy road, Jiang Chen threw away his raincoat and exposed the black kinetic skeleton concealed beneath it .
With his tactical helmet wielded, a light blue light spread across the screen, and everything in his field of vision gradually became clear . Although there was a slight difference from daylight, it was not much of hindrance . Jiang Chen opened the safety and loaded the rifle, his movement was much more catuious .
Everything here was strange .
Logically speaking, it was difficult for rain and fog to appear at the same time, especially in heavy rain .
Through the dense and heavy fog, Jiang Chen arrived at the end of the road . It was a resort, but from the size, it wouldn't be wrong to say it was a small town . The roadside sign dangled and rust stained its emerald green surface .
However, Jiang Chen could still catch a glimpse of the remaining white paint .
Terminal Station: Datun Resort
"Is it here?"
Murmuring, Jiang Chen opened the holographic map and confirmed the coordinates . The map Mole gave him had been scanned into an electronic file, including the password for entering the underground nuclear power station .
Directly in front of him, the misty resort looked terrifying, just like a ghostly town in typical horror films .
Two words suddenly popped into Jiang Chen's head .

[Silent Hill?]
A closer look made him realize it was indeed similar, but that was all .
As a determined "non-spiritual warrior", Jiang Chen did not believe in ghosts and demons from a very young age . Despite the clearly abnormal town gave him an ominous feeling, he still moved forward along the dirt path .
But at that moment, he suddenly felt like he was being watched .
He immediately turned back and lifted the muzzle, but there was nothing but thick mist .
"An illusion?"
Jiang Chen whispered, slowly lowering the rifle .
The resort's billboards had broken down on the side of the road, and the windows were all pitch black . If it was not for the life signal detection device revealing that no one is there, he would not have dared to step onto this path .
Without investigating the suspicious houses, Jiang Chen directly went to an abandoned hospital, following the path on the map .
As he crossed the courtyard, he noticed there were many luxury cars parked in the parking lot .
It was evident that this resort in the natural park was very popular among the rich before the war .
According to the information given to him by Mole, the entrance to the nuclear power plant was here .
At the hospital's main building entrance, he hesitated for a moment before he took out the drone terminal from the storage dimension, then deployed it at the door of the hospital . From the time he entered the resort until now, he did not even see a trace of danger, but this strange atmosphere made him unusually cautious .

A dozen Hummingbird drones flew out of the drone terminal and explored the corners of the hospital . The orange light in the fog turned into a beige glow . Although it still was not pleasing to the eye, it was much better than the previous darkness .
Holding a rifle and stepping through the door of the hospital, accompanied by his drones, Jiang Chen's eyes carefully examined every corner .
The hall was very messy, the chairs were sideways on the ground, and documents were scattered everywhere . However, in a scene typical on the wasteland, Jiang Chen still found a hint of unusualness .
It was too clean . He did not even see any corpses!
It was abnormal .
The outbreak of the war was very sudden . If the coast of Yizhou Island, which was on the front lines, had not been specifically targeted by NATO's missiles, the locals certainly would not have much time to evacuate . And he suddenly remembered there were many cars parked in the hospital garage .
This also indirectly showed that when the war happened, people did not leave the hospital at all .
Jiang Chen frowned at the thought .
[Where did they go?]
Passing through a dark corridor, the damp air was mixed with a moldy smell . After opening the air filter on the tactical helmet, his nose felt slightly better .
The entrance to the nuclear power plant was in the basement .
However, as Jiang Chen's target drew closer, his heart became even tenser . So far, he had not encountered any so-called danger . Of course, he would not optimistically think there are no differences between today and five years ago . If that was the case, why did the people from Fallout Shelter 79 never return?

Nothing was more disturbing than the unknown .
He pushed the door of the basement open and threw in a flare, raised his rifle, dashed through the door, and cautiously pointed at his surroundings .
The old medical equipment was cluttered and stacked in the corner of the basement . It looked like no one had been there for a long time .
After lowering the muzzle slightly, Jiang Chen opened the holographic map and confirmed the specific location of the entrance to the refuge . He then carefully approached the left wall of the basement, reached for the tiles above the floor and stopped at the seventh tile on the left . He pressed it down .
As Mole indicated on the back of the map, there was a hidden device on the back of the tile .
A pale orange holographic screen emerged from the wall and stopped in front of Jiang Chen . After he entered the password, the floor gently shook and the stack of medical devices buzzed to form a narrow trail .
Did he finally find it?
Jiang Chen felt relieved and tapped on his wristwatch, ready to bring Lin Lin up the mountain . Transporting nuclear power facilities would require Lin Lin, an expert in this field, to guide him . Tampering with the equipment inside could create special situations, which was why he brought her to Yizhou .
The holographic screen unfolded, but at that moment, his fingers were fixed in the air .
On the wall, he saw a shadow .
An axe was raised . . .
Without the slightest hesitation, Jiang Chen slammed his body to the side and rolled on the ground while taking out a nitrogen shield and laser pistol from the storage dimension .
The short axe smashed into the wall and shattered the tiles .
Jiang Chen's pupils contracted .
The figure was as hazy as smoke . The only thing truly visible was the axe .
"Buzz-"
The sound of an electric current entered his ear, Without landing the hit, the figure moved rapidly and flung the short axe in his hand at Jiang Chen .
The high-pressure air current expanded instantly to push the axe aside . At the same time, faint blue laser bullets burst out, displaying the short-range firepower advantage of laser pistols! Laser rain instantly covered the dark shadows and all the spaces it could dodge .
The bullets hit the target at least ten times .
The shadow howled in pain but still didn't lose its mobility .
Taking advantage of the short gap between bullets, it leaped back . The smoke-like figure immediately merged into the fog in the corridor .
Jiang Chen chased it out . At the same time, the Hummingbird drones followed suit .
However, when he stood in the hallway and turned on the life signal detection device, he unexpectedly discovered something odd . . .
Light blue ripples swept across the screen and there was only blankness on the screen . There was no trace of mutants or human activity at all . . .
There was a faint chill in his heart and Jiang Chen frowned .
What kind of thing was that dark shadow?
