Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 164: The Apocalypse - I Am Not the Holy Mother 71

It must be said that Song Yuhang’s words were fervent and impassioned, indeed stirring everyone’s blood and sweeping away the previously subdued atmosphere.

Everyone thought Song Yuhang was right. Who are they? They are elites! Elites who solve tasks others can’t accomplish! Just because others can’t leave this area and complete the mission doesn’t mean they can’t do it either!

Encouraged by Song Yuhang, everyone’s morale was high. When moving forward again, their spirits were noticeably better than before. Although there are now many mutated creatures and plants, no matter how combative the mutated creatures or plants are, everyone’s superpowers have improved significantly, so there’s no situation where they can’t win. Even if they’re too tired to fight anymore, they have the mobile safe fortress to rest in.

The previous low moods were actually more due to a feeling of loneliness from being without their kind, but with so many companions around, this loneliness never reached the point of collapse. With Song Yuhang’s timely adjustment of everyone’s mood, they successfully swept away any bad feelings and made everyone’s mood positive again.

In the next two days, everyone delved deeper into the jungle, still seeing no traces of humans. By this point, everyone had little hope of encountering another human being.

During the lunch break, they ate pre-made jerky and compressed biscuits with chilled fruit juice for lunch. Li Wenxuan, sitting beside Lin Shuangshuang, looked at the densely endless jungle around him and said dejectedly, "Do you think humans are really all gone? The mutated creatures and plants here are so formidable, which makes it possible. But I always believe that humanity’s adaptability is so strong that we can’t be driven to extinction by a bunch of mutated beasts, insects, and plants! Yet, the fact that we haven’t seen a single person after searching for so long makes me have to think otherwise. It’s so unsettling, this constant unease in my heart."

"Let’s keep looking. We haven’t gone that deep yet. Perhaps there are human survivors we haven’t met. We’re too few, and the jungle is too vast. Even if there are humans hidden, the chances of running into us are very slim! It’s normal for us not to know even if there are human survivors." Lin Shuangshuang tried to comfort Li Wenxuan without much hope.

"Sister Shuangshuang! There’s a smell of ammonia around here!" Zhang Ling, who had been listening to Lin Shuangshuang and Li Wenxuan’s conversation, suddenly raised her head, sniffed carefully, and interrupted.

Initially, Lin Shuangshuang didn’t respond to what Zhang Ling meant. Her mind was briefly confused, thinking, "What is the smell of ammonia?" After a while, she suddenly remembered that the smell of ammonia refers to the scent of human urine.

It was no wonder Lin Shuangshuang reacted so slowly. Mainly, she hadn’t been a student for many years. Although she was in school when she was reborn in this life, she didn’t learn much before leaving directly. The little knowledge she’d learned was returned to the teacher amid survival struggles. For her to still remember what Zhang Ling meant, Lin Shuangshuang admired her memory for not being too poor.

The scent of human urine is not the same as that of animals. If there is truly the smell of ammonia here, it indicates human activity nearby!

Lin Shuangshuang hurriedly stood up, took a few deep breaths, and carefully distinguished the scents in the air. Indeed, there was a faint ammonia smell lingering, indicating human activity nearby! This determination lifted Lin Shuangshuang’s spirits.

There’s no need for Lin Shuangshuang to say anything further. As Zhang Ling reminded her, everyone had already made the same response as Lin Shuangshuang, carefully sniffing the air. It wasn’t just Lin Shuangshuang and Zhang Ling’s imagination; everyone smelled the faint scent of ammonia.

There are indeed human survivors! Li Wenxuan, who had moments ago been in a low mood, showed rare excitement and exclaimed, "I knew it. We humans are the most tenacious and adaptable species in the world. How could we be defeated by mutated insects, plants, or animals?" Li Wenxuan’s words were met with a chorus of agreement.

Knowing there are humans alive in this jungle, everyone’s spirits lifted greatly. If there are humans, it’s unlikely to be just one since humans are social creatures, especially during disasters. They prefer to live in groups. If they can find the person who left the scent, they might find a large group of fellow humans. This thought brightened everyone’s mood.

The discovery of human traces made everyone lose their appetite. They quickly filled their stomachs and began searching for signs of human activity, hoping to find the surviving humans as soon as possible.

It’s unclear whether these people are original inhabitants who never left after the transformation of the world or members of a team assigned to explore later. But regardless of which, finding them would greatly aid their mission.

If they’re natives, they understand the area better than the group, making it easier to know why such strange evolutionary phenomena occur. If they’re a team sent for exploration, their extended presence here means they likely know much valuable information and data the team urgently needs, providing direction for the team’s following exploration task.

Searching for human traces is something Song Yuhang and Wang Wei, as soldiers, are more adept at. The first to locate the direction of the ammonia scent were Wang Wei and a soldier under him with Ah Cai. Simultaneously, Song Yuhang found signs of a fire being lit and later buried. These traces covered a large area, indicating the campfire spot was sizable and that there were likely over ten humans who once stayed here.

At the same time, on the other side, Lao San and Lao Si found remnants of food buried after being consumed by humans. All the evidence pointed to human activity in this location, which involved more than one or two individuals. Everyone’s mood was once again excited, deciding to strike while the iron was hot and continue searching for where these people went and the traces they left.

The method of searching for humans was something Lin Shuangshuang didn’t understand, nor did any of the non-military personnel. They all stood bewildered, watching Song Yuhang and Wang Wei display their military expertise. From changes in soil color, broken branches, even changes in leaf direction, and various signs that seemed inexplicable to Lin Shuangshuang and the others, they were able to track the direction.

Lin Shuangshuang momentarily doubted whether Song Yuhang and the others might lead everyone off course, like going further and further away, but the facts proved that Song Yuhang and Wang Wei’s military skills were not to be questioned.
