Standing on the top of the slope, we can see the original location of the camp.

Thermal imaging shows that a large number of monsters have gathered in this place that was razed to the ground a long time ago.

We were quite shocked when we saw this dense patch of red.

"We should withdraw."

Karen swallowed, silently took off the heat-sensing glasses, turned around and said in disbelief, "What do you think?"

"Do you think the mission failed, will the higher-ups let us go?"

I said very flatly.

But in his heart, there was a huge wave at this moment.

There are so many monsters in front that even the patterns displayed on the city wall are connected together.

If we want to go deeper, we can only pass through these numerous monsters.

Karen knows the company's rules better than I do, and of course she knows this too, but after hearing what I said, she couldn't help but look disappointed and said, "But what's the difference between this and death?"

Her words spoke my heart.

However, if the mission fails, according to the company's system, we will definitely die.

If you continue to move forward, you may still find a chance of survival.

only……

There are too many monsters gathered in front. If you want to go in as safely as possible, you can only find a place with a small number of monsters as a breakthrough.

After some discussion, Karen and I decided to explore around the edge of the monster gathering.

But doing so means that we need to consume more time.

In this way, every time Karen and I replenish our energy, we save as much food as possible to buy us more time.

"How much do you have left?"

"Half, what about you?"

I gnawed on a tasteless compressed biscuit and glanced at Karen, who was blushing. Although she didn't say it clearly, I already guessed it.

When she set off, the food she carried was extremely luxurious compared to me.

Soft bread, crisp cookies, and even drinks like red wine.

The taste is good, but the puffable food will take up a lot of space, and it is not very full. Although as a woman, she eats less, how much food can be contained in the current backpack when we came out?

It has been at least three days since we walked this way.

Now her backpack is probably almost bottomed out.

"One... one piece."

Karen looked at the compressed biscuit in my hand, then took out a piece of French bread from her backpack, walked towards me, and handed the bread to me, "One piece of bread, in exchange for a bag of compressed biscuit."

No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are begging me, but it sounds like you are giving an order.

This makes me feel a little uncomfortable.

I didn't talk to her either. After eating and drinking and wiping my mouth, I stood up, took the beautifully packaged bread, and handed her a large bag of compressed biscuits.

"You earned it."

But what's annoying is that instead of being grateful, this woman looks like she has suffered a lot.

If it is in the outside world, the price gap between the two is indeed relatively large.

But we are not in a normal harmonious society now.

Here, being alive is the most basic principle. As for the value of taste, it is completely worthless compared to being full.

But at this time, I am too lazy to say anything.

After effortlessly kneading the bread into a ball the size of a fist, he stuffed it into his backpack.

After eating and drinking enough, and taking a little rest, it's time to start action.

Although the place where we are now is relatively close to the gathering area of ​​those monsters, those monsters have not found us, so it is considered safe.

But I didn't relax my vigilance. While resting, I kept looking at the situation around me.

But I overlooked one point, this time I took Karen with me, so I was doomed not to be quiet.

No matter what I do, this woman who holds a grudge against me always finds fault.

"You can eat this kind of thing?"

The compressed biscuit that was exchanged for her just now, this woman spit it out after taking a bite, and then threw the rest on me.

"You are sick?"

I looked at the biscuit crumbs on me, then at the scattered biscuits.

If you save some food, this is enough food for a day.

"Pooh!"

Karen looked at me with a sneer, "The delicious food you eat is just an act, right? The purpose is to lie to my bread, right?"

Her words sounded like a mental retardation to me.

"Bread, right?"

I laughed angrily, immediately opened the backpack, took out the mage bread that was crumpled just now, and threw it to her.

"You just have to take it."

"idiot!"

Karen looked at the bread I kneaded into a ball with an ugly expression, hesitated to speak a few times, but just sneered, sat down to open the package, and ate slowly.

After eating half of it and putting the rest away, she drank the red wine happily, and then mocked me, "This is life."

The yin and yang are weird, and I almost want to give her two big mouths at that time.

But I held back.

Without saying a word, I picked up the compressed biscuits scattered on the ground one by one, blown off the dust on them, and then put them back into the backpack.

"The food you carry should be the half loaf of bread left."

"So what?"

Of course Karen knows what I mean. In a short time, it is impossible for us to go back. Without food, we can't last long.

If her attitude can be better at this time, maybe I will consider sharing some food with her regardless of the past.

It's a pity that at this time, she still chose to save face.

"Even if I starve to death and die in the mouths of those monsters, I will definitely not eat your food."

"Don't forget, this is what you said."

I smiled and didn't care.

I have experienced extreme hunger more than once, and I have seen people who were driven crazy by hunger.

People under severe starvation can do anything.

The reason why she can still say such tough words now is because she has not yet reached that level.

"Of course I know I said it."

Karen replied not to be outdone, and then we set off on the road.

The area where monsters gather is very large, and it will take a lot of time to go around this gathering area.

After all, although we keep a relatively safe distance from those monsters on the surface, who knows if one or two will suddenly find us, thus causing us to be attacked by a group of monsters?

Everything is an unknown, and the psychological pressure brought to us is not ordinary.
