Chapter 576 Strange Bird

In the dim abandoned underground botanical garden, Bai Ye led the soldiers to move forward. Their footsteps echoed in the silent air, and each step seemed extremely heavy. This land forgotten by time is full of unknowns and dangers, but Bai Ye's eyes are firm and bright. He led the team to explore the unknown depths step by step.

Soon after, they came to a dark and deep cave. The entrance of the cave was covered with vines and moss, as if no one had set foot in it for a long time. Bai Ye stopped and looked at the cave carefully. His brows frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"Turn on the flashlight." Bai Ye's voice was low and powerful, and the soldiers immediately acted according to his orders. As the beams of flashlight light lit up, the interior of the cave gradually revealed its true appearance. It was a bottomless dark world, like a passage to the center of the earth.

Bai Ye took a deep breath, and he felt an inexplicable chill coming from the depths of the cave. But he did not retreat, but stepped forward, ready to enter this unknown cave. The soldiers followed closely behind, their flashlights flickering in the darkness, forming beams of light.

Just as they were about to enter the cave, a sudden rapid flapping sound came from the depths of the cave. Then, dozens of giant radioactive birds rushed out of the cave. They were huge, with faint light flashing on their feathers, and looked extremely ferocious.

"Be careful!" Bai Ye shouted loudly, and quickly pulled out the weapons at his waist, ready to fight these sudden birds. The soldiers also reacted immediately, raising their weapons in their hands, ready to fight back.

"Scatter quickly, don't gather together!" Bai Ye shouted again, his voice echoing in the cave. The soldiers quickly dispersed and formed a loose battle formation. They used the light of the flashlight to illuminate the surrounding area, while keeping a close eye on the movements of the big birds.

The big birds did not seem to be afraid of these humans. They flapped their huge wings and circled in the air. There was a fierce light in their eyes, as if they wanted to catch these invaders in one fell swoop.

"Fire!" Bai Ye gave an order, and the soldiers immediately opened fire. A series of fire flashed in the darkness, accompanied by deafening gunshots. However, these big birds were extremely flexible. They tumbled in the air and dodged the bullets.

Seeing this, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel a little surprised. These big birds are not only huge in size, but also extremely fast. It is not easy to defeat them in such an environment. He took a deep breath and prepared to do it himself.

As soon as he moved, he rushed towards the nearest big bird like a cheetah. His movements were swift and powerful, as if a gust of wind was blowing. The big bird didn't seem to expect Bai Ye to rush towards it so quickly. It stagnated and revealed a flaw.

Bai Ye took the opportunity to swing the weapon in his hand and hit the big bird's wings hard. The big bird let out a shrill scream, tilted its body, and fell from the air. Seeing this, the soldiers rushed forward one after another, ready to subdue the big bird.

However, at this moment, the other big birds also discovered Bai Ye's weakness. They launched a fierce attack on the soldiers one after another. Although the soldiers fought hard, they gradually fell into a bitter battle under the fierce attack of these big birds.

Bai Ye couldn't help but get anxious when he saw this. He knew that if they couldn't defeat these big birds quickly, they would be in a more dangerous situation. He took a deep breath and prepared to attack again.

He moved his body and rushed to a big bird again. His movements were faster than before, like a flash of lightning. The big bird obviously didn't expect Bai Ye to attack again. It stagnated and revealed its flaws again.

Bai Ye took the opportunity to swing the weapon in his hand and hit the big bird's head and wings continuously. The big bird let out a more shrill scream, tilted its body, and fell heavily to the ground. Seeing this, the soldiers rushed forward and subdued the big bird.

As the big bird fell, the other big birds seemed to be afraid. They began to circle in the air and dared not attack easily. Bai Ye took the opportunity to command the soldiers to attack deep into the cave. They moved forward step by step, overcoming one difficulty after another with courage and wisdom.

Bai Ye and the soldiers passed through the cave and stepped into a wider underground space. The light of the flashlight shuttled through the darkness, illuminating their way forward. The air here carried an indescribable dullness, as if every inch of space was full of depression and danger.

As they gradually went deeper, the light of the flashlight reflected some unusual outlines. Bai Ye stopped and stared at the front. There, hundreds of strange birds gathered densely, their feathers flashing with a faint light, and their eyes revealed a cold and cruel luster.

"It's the radiation bird!" Bai Ye exclaimed in a low voice, with a hint of shock in his voice. These strange birds are different from the big birds they met outside the cave. They are larger in size and emit a strong radiation smell from their feathers. They gathered together, as if forming a huge dark force, ready to launch a fierce attack on these uninvited guests.

The soldiers were also shocked by the scene before them, and they raised their weapons in their hands, ready to fight back. However, Bai Ye knew the power and danger of these strange birds. He understood that if he attacked directly, he would likely end up in a tough fight, or even put his life in danger.

"Don't act rashly!" Bai Ye shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the empty underground space. The soldiers stopped their actions immediately, their eyes fixed on Bai Ye, waiting for his instructions.

Bai Ye took a deep breath, and he quickly thought about how to deal with it. He knew that these strange birds were very sensitive to fire, and fire was their natural enemy. So he made a decisive decision.

"Quick, pick up the flamethrower!" Bai Ye ordered loudly. The soldiers immediately took action, and they took out the flamethrower from their backpacks and prepared to attack.

With Bai Ye's order, the soldiers pressed the switch of the flamethrower. A series of hot flames spewed out of the jet, drawing bright tracks in the darkness. The flames instantly ignited the surrounding air, forming a sea of ​​fire.

Those strange birds obviously did not expect humans to use flame attacks, and they were frightened by the sea of ​​fire and fled everywhere. However, the spread of the flames was extremely fast, and soon the entire underground space was enveloped in a sea of ​​fire. The strange birds had nowhere to escape and could only struggle in the sea of ​​fire.

Seeing this, the soldiers rushed forward and continued to attack the strange birds with flamethrowers. The flames raged in the underground space, burning the strange birds one by one into ashes. The air was filled with a burnt smell, which was the smell of the strange birds after being burned by the flames.

Bai Ye stood in the sea of ​​fire, his eyes firm and cold. He knew that these strange birds were a dark force in this underground space, and they must be completely eliminated to ensure safety. He waved the flamethrower in his hand and continued to attack the strange birds.

After a fierce battle, the strange birds were finally eliminated by the soldiers. The flames in the underground space gradually extinguished, leaving only a charred ruin. The soldiers sat on the ground tiredly, with the joy and pride of victory on their faces.

After the sea of ​​fire gradually extinguished and the underground space fell into darkness and silence again, the soldiers gathered around the corpses of the giant radioactive birds, their eyes full of shock and contemplation. These huge creatures, once soaring in the sky, showing unparalleled power and ferocity, now lie quietly at their feet, becoming a witness to the victory of this battle.

In the embers of the fire, the bodies of the radioactive birds stood out. Their bodies were huge, far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Each one seemed like a small mountain, lying on the ground in the underground space, emitting faint radioactive light.

The feathers of these strange birds were extremely bright and thick, layered one on top of the other, as if they were wearing a thick layer of armor. The color of the feathers changed unpredictably in the weak light, sometimes showing a deep purple, and sometimes flashing a strange green light. Each feather flashed a faint luster, as if it contained some mysterious power.

The heads of the strange birds were huge, occupying almost one-third of the entire body. Their eyes were closed, but they could still feel the sharp eyes that seemed to penetrate all the darkness. The sharp beaks were curved like hooks, as if they could easily tear any prey apart.

The claws of the strange birds were also huge and sharp, and each claw was as hard as steel, flashing a cold light. These claws used to be powerful weapons for hunting and attacking, but now they drooped weakly on both sides of the body, losing their former majesty.

The most eye-catching thing is the traces of radiation on the strange birds. These traces of radiation spread out from the strange birds to the surroundings, forming circles of light green halos. These halos are particularly eye-catching in the dark, as if they are the last marks of the lives of these strange birds. These radiations not only prove their existence, but also foreshadow the dangers and unknowns in this underground space.

The soldiers looked at the bodies of these strange birds silently. Their huge bodies and strange feathers looked particularly strange under the weak flashlight. The feathers of each big bird flashed a faint light, as if telling the might and mystery of their life. However, at this moment, these lights have lost their vitality, leaving only a dead silence.

"It's incredible..." A soldier whispered, his voice full of shock. He reached out and gently touched the feathers of a big bird. The cold and hard touch made him shudder.

"Yeah, I've never seen such a big bird." Another soldier took over the conversation, his eyes full of awe and curiosity. He squatted down and carefully observed the head and claws of the big bird, trying to explore the secrets of these creatures from the details.

"The radiation smell on them is so strong." A soldier reminded, frowning, as if he was uneasy about this radiation smell. He took out the radiation detector he carried with him and scanned the body of the big bird. The values ​​displayed on the screen surprised them all.

"With such strong radiation, how can they survive here?" A soldier asked puzzledly. He looked around, trying to find the answer from the surrounding environment. However, this underground space did not seem to have many clues related to the survival of these big birds.

"Maybe they have adapted to the radiation environment here." A soldier guessed. He remembered what he had learned in the military academy about the adaptive evolution that may occur in organisms in extreme environments. These big birds may have gradually evolved resistance to radiation in such an environment.

"The power of these big birds is really terrible." A soldier exclaimed. He recalled the scene of the battle just now. The big birds were tumbling in the air, dodging the bullets, showing amazing speed and flexibility. If they hadn't used the flamethrower in time, I'm afraid the outcome of this battle would be unpredictable.

"Yes, we almost fell here." Another soldier echoed. He recalled his tension and fear in the battle just now, and he couldn't help feeling a little scared. However, at this moment, they stood on the side of victory, and all the fear and anxiety turned into pride and gratitude.

The soldiers continued to communicate, and their voices echoed in the empty underground space. They discussed the origins and habits of these big birds, and speculated on other dangers that might be hidden in this underground space. At the same time, they were also thinking about the next action plan and response strategy.

"We have to be careful." A soldier reminded. He looked at the corpses of the big birds, and an inexplicable alert surged in his heart. He knew that there might be more unknown dangers and challenges waiting for them in this underground world.

"That's right, we can't take it lightly." Another soldier echoed. He held the weapon tightly in his hand, with a firm light in his eyes. He knew that only by maintaining vigilance and courage could he cope with the crisis that might arise next.

The soldiers' communication gradually deepened. They not only discussed the experience and lessons in the battle, but also shared the knowledge and skills they learned in the military academy. They encouraged and supported each other to establish a deep comradeship in this strange underground world.

Time seemed to be frozen at this moment. The soldiers gathered around the bodies of the big birds as if forming an indestructible line of defense. Their eyes were full of determination and courage, as if to indicate that any challenges they would face next would be overcome by them one by one.

Bai Ye also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he and the soldiers had successfully defeated these strange birds. However, he also understood that this was just the beginning of their exploration. In the days to come, they will face more challenges and dangers.

"We have to keep moving forward." Bai Ye stood up, with a hint of determination in his voice. The soldiers also stood up one after another, with a firm light flashing in their eyes.

They sorted out their equipment and weapons, ready to move on. The flashlights once again lit up in the darkness, illuminating the way ahead.
