Chapter 256: Too Clean

Lin Xuyuan is simple-minded. He just thinks that if this road doesn't work, then another road will be fine.

"There's no other way. This is the only way to go. You can't go in other directions at all."

Moreover, the route planned by Chu Jiangyue's navigation is definitely the least dangerous among all routes.

If they can't even go this way, then they will be even more unable to go through other roads.

"Let's go and take a look first, maybe this is the last wave."

They had to face it sooner or later anyway. At worst, after dealing with the next wave, they all hid in the car, absorbed the crystal cores to restore to their best condition and then continued to move forward.

This time Jiang He took over the driving job. After all, he was a space-related mutant, and his combat power was slightly inferior to the others.

In order to ensure the personal safety of this walking warehouse, Shen Zhigui and others did not want Jiang He to join the battle unless necessary.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happened to him and his space ability couldn't be used, then the mountains of supplies they left with him would be gone.

Jiang He also has a very clear understanding of his own position. Normally, he will not leave the safe zone designated for him by Shen Zhigui and others.

Two silver-white cars, with two mutant tigers on their roofs, soon approached a group of mutant sheep that had changed in size and two large mutant sheep that existed before the apocalypse.

Fortunately, it was not a zombie sheep, and Chu Jiangyue and others breathed a sigh of relief.

The wool on these sheep is so dirty that you can't even see its original color anymore.

“I don’t know if the hair on their bodies can still be used after cutting it.”

These sheep have clearly mutated to become larger in size, and the amount of wool on their bodies is twice as much as before the apocalypse.

If the owners of these sheep were still alive, they would probably jump for joy.

"What~"

Chu Jiangyue and others got off the car, and a group of giant sheep started to cry out, and then fled away without any direction at all.

Chu Jiangyue and others: Are they so scary?

"Why...are they different from what I expected?"

The mutant chickens and zombie ducks they just encountered attacked them right away, not giving them any chance to speak.

However, this group of sheep, although clearly more powerful than before the end of the world, seem to have become even more timid.

As soon as they got out of the car, a flock of sheep ran away in panic.

"That's great. We don't have to do anything. Get in the car!"

No matter what the situation of this group of giant sheep is, as long as they don't attack them, Chu Jiangyue has never thought of killing them all.

Eleven people and two tigers got into the car quickly. After Jiang He confirmed that everyone was in the car, he stepped heavily on the accelerator. He didn't want to attract the attention of any mutant animals or plants or zombie animals or plants.

However, it is really difficult for a team like them not to attract attention.

As they walked forward for a while, they did not encounter any more mutated or zombie animals, but the surrounding environment was eerily quiet.

"This place is too clean..."

The cleanliness of Jianglin Hotel relies on the hotel system's interstellar black technology automatic cleaning.

But there were no cleaning tools here, and there was no one around, it didn't look like there was anyone cleaning.

However, the ground here looks no different from before the apocalypse. Even before the apocalypse, there would occasionally be one or two pieces of white trash appearing on the road.

Not to mention white garbage here, there isn't even a puddle of water formed by the snow melting when it snowed at night and the weather warmed up the next day. This is totally abnormal.

Shen Zhigui subconsciously stood in front of Chu Jiangyue, with lightning flashing in his palms, obviously ready to join the battle at any time.

"Have you read the novel?"

Chu Jiangyue suddenly asked this question, and everyone looked at her.

Among the other 10 people, some shook their heads, some nodded. And the few who had read the novel looked over quickly after hearing Chu Jiangyue's words.

Obviously, he had already guessed what Chu Jiangyue wanted to say.

The remaining few who had not read the novel were still full of questions.

Shen Zhigui happened to not have read the one in the novel, and his expression when he looked at Chu Jiangyue was full of confusion.

“In novels, the protagonists often fall into illusions while walking and end up being separated from their friends.

When you fall into an illusion, you may involuntarily fall into the trap that has been prepared by the owner of the illusion.

If you are not careful, you may lose your life."

The strength of those who can create illusions should not be underestimated.

After hearing Chu Jiangyue's words, Shen Zhigui understood the world in the novel for the first time.

"But we are not separated, everyone is still around..."

"How can you be sure that the people standing next to you now are the real us?"

Chu Jiangyue asked a soul-searching question.

Shen Zhigui was speechless. Chinese-style terror was the most unexpected.

"I have my own judgment, and you are all real."

Chu Jiangyue didn’t know how Shen Zhigui made his judgment. Anyway, she just wanted to confirm whether what was around her was real.

"If this is an illusion, we must converge on the solution as soon as possible and break this illusion."

Jin Chuyu used to be a materialist, but ever since she acquired ice-related abilities, her worldview has quietly changed.

"Being able to create illusions means that he is very comfortable with the use of space. Maybe... he is a psychic."

It is said that when a psychic becomes powerful enough, he can use his own thoughts to create an illusion that is so real that it is hard to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

Jiang He's eyes lit up when he heard Chu Jiangyue mention psychics and the terrifying use of space by the person who created this illusion.

He may not be able to do anything else, but regarding the use of space, Jiang He really wants to find the person who created the illusion and learn from him.

Unfortunately, the current situation shows that they are enemies, so he has to give up his plan to learn from him.

"Everyone should hold hands and be careful not to get separated."

Chu Jiangyue raised her voice, intending that everyone could hear what she said clearly.

"If you ask me, this illusion is actually a bit fake."

Jin Churan looked around and finally came to a conclusion.

"Jin Churan, what do you mean by this?"

Chu Jiangyue felt that Jin Churan might have seen something.

"Don't you think that the scenery here is beautiful, but the ground is ridiculously clean?

The trees planted beside the road didn’t even have a single leaf dropped.”

"No, there are no green plants except mutant plants. Where do these trees come from?"

Su Zhucheng suddenly had an idea and finally figured out the problem that he had been wondering about.

The others turned around and looked at Su Zhucheng: "You are right, these trees are too unreasonable."

If they were mutated plants, then there were too many of them. According to the real-life map that Chu Jiangyue had taken out before, there were no green plants at all in the area they passed by!
"Snapped!"

The entire environment was like a huge mirror, shattered into countless pieces in an instant.

The illusion was broken and reality returned. Chu Jiangyue and others found that they had gotten off the car and were unconsciously moving in one direction.
