The moment Lynn Hall's fingertips touched the dense fog, he realized that the fog in front of him had solidified, turning into a barrier with a glass-like texture.
And the moment Lynn touched it, those blood-red eyes suddenly pressed against it.
Seeing this, Sean and Alice immediately prepared to open fire, but Lynn raised a hand to stop them.
Sure enough, those eerie eyes became motionless after touching the barrier formed by the solidified fog.
Seeing this scene, Lynn nodded slightly. It was indeed as he had guessed.
The reason the county sheriff was not attacked last night was because the Master of the eyes was blocked by the barrier!
However, it was still unknown how all of this came to be.
Moreover, was this dense fog barrier meant to prevent them from entering, or to prevent them from coming out?
Carrying her weapon, Alice came to Lynn's side, looking at the countless eyes, and then reached out to touch the barrier.
"Ouch."
Alice pulled her hand back the moment she touched the barrier, and looked at Lynn, saying, "Boss, the fog turned solid and it has Current. Why didn't you tell me?"
"Current?"
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn frowned.
When he touched it just now, he didn't feel any electric shock.
He reached out again to test it, but still felt no electric shock.
Sean, who was beside him, also reached out to test it, and likewise, he didn't feel any electric shock.
Looking at their expressions, Alice was a bit confused.
She reached out again, refusing to believe it, and again a Current pushed her away.
Seeing this scene, Lynn waved to his subordinates behind him, and soon the others rushed over.
Following Lynn's instructions, everyone else tried it one by one.
Except for a few women from the information department, the other male Agents did not feel any electric shock.
"FUXX, does this solidified dense fog even have gender discrimination?"
Alice extended a middle finger towards the fog barrier, then turned around resentfully and returned to the camp.
"Sean, have everyone take turns on night watch tonight, weapons loaded. We'll enter this town to investigate the situation after dawn!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's command, Sean immediately went to assign tasks!
Back in the car, Lynn reclined his seat, closing his eyes to rest while pondering whether those eerie eyes belonged to the residents of the town.
No matter what had befallen this town, Lynn had already decided on the "truth" to clarify.
It must be a virus deliberately spread by the Great Russians. This has become the official customary explanation for disasters that cannot be truly explained!
After a night's rest.
As dawn gradually broke, the barrier formed by the dense fog also transformed back into mist.
The stalled cars could be restarted, and even the blocked signals returned to normal!
Because of the "Current" last night, Lynn had Alice stay put with the female members, while he, along with Sean and others, entered the town.
As soon as a dozen fully armed Federal Bureau of Investigation members entered the town, they saw residents wandering aimlessly in the streets.
When they saw Lynn leading the team in, they immediately rushed over.
Seeing this, Lynn directly ordered them to open Fire.
Bursts of gunshots echoed through the town, but even after being pierced by bullets, the residents continued to charge towards them.
Even when their heads were shattered by bullets, they still kept coming towards the group.
Seeing this scene, Lynn Hall casually grabbed a charging guy and threw him out.
The resident thrown by Lynn crashed into the nearby wall, breaking both his legs, but he still crawled towards Lynn.
"FUXX, Boss, what the hell have the residents of this town turned into?"
Seeing "monsters" whose heads exploded like watermelons, yet their headless bodies, as if equipped with navigation, lunged towards them.
Sean cursed in a low voice while firing his gun.
"Sean, lead the team out of the dense fog. No one is allowed in until I come out!"
As he spoke, Lynn Hall leaped onto the rooftop in a few strides.
"Boss, let me do it. You lead the team out!"
Aiming his submachine gun at the ground, Sean was about to follow suit and climb up to take Lynn's place.
But Lynn glared at him and said, "Execute the command!"
"...Yes!"
Sean hesitated, glanced at Lynn, and gripped his submachine gun, gritting his teeth.
Then he furiously emptied a clip into these unkillable residents.
Only then did he reluctantly lead his team out of the town!
As Sean and the others retreated from the town, the residents who were charging at them also stopped their steps.
Then they began to wander aimlessly in the streets again.
Outside the town.
Sean and the others had retreated, but Lynn Hall had not followed them out.
Alice immediately stepped forward and demanded, "Where's the Boss? Damn it, you bastard, you left the Boss alone in the town?"
Saying this, Alice grabbed her submachine gun and prepared to rush in to save Lynn, but Sean stopped her.
"The Boss said no one is allowed to enter the town until he comes out!"
"FUXX, what if the Boss encounters danger in there?"
"This is the Boss's command!"
"Bullshit command!"
Pushing Sean aside, she was about to rush in, but the next second Sean once again blocked Alice's path: "You know the Boss's character and capabilities; he never fights unprepared battles!"
"Since the Boss gave this command, there must be a reason for it!"
"So, without the Boss's command, even if the Director came, no one is allowed to enter!"
"You..."
Staring at Sean with wide eyes, Alice kicked him hard: "If the Boss gets trapped in there, I'll personally send you down to accompany him!"
"You won't need to do it!"
Seeing that Alice was no longer impulsive, Sean walked to the side and lit a cigarette, saying, "If those unkillable things really hurt the Boss, I'll tie bombs to myself and blow them to kingdom come!"
Seeing the atmosphere in the scene a bit heavy, Dennis, who was about to speak, quietly closed his mouth.
This was the first time he had witnessed Alice and Sean arguing.
Having joined the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation these past few days, he was very clear that these two were the Boss's most trusted subordinates!
Inside the town.
Standing on the rooftop, Lynn Hall couldn't help but frown as he looked at the houses in the town.
On the exterior walls of the first few houses he saw, there was a blood-red, eerie symbol drawn.
This symbol was a hexagram enclosed within a circle, and upon closer inspection, each point of the hexagram had something resembling a ram's horn drawn on it.
Continuously leaping from one rooftop to another, Lynn discovered that all the houses in the town had the same eerie symbol drawn on their walls.
This discovery made Lynn frown, because he kept feeling that he had seen this eerie blood-colored symbol somewhere before, but he just couldn't remember where!
