The Gorge

The gorge is a place hidden from human eyes and satellite dishes with the help of jammers. Automatic security has been installed along the edges of the gorge with the help of turrets and motion sensors so that no one leaves the gorge. In the middle of the gorge, in a place where it is easiest to climb, there are watchtowers on both sides. Every year, Russia and the United States send one of their US fighters there to the western tower and Russia to the eastern tower. After the end of the guard year, a helicopter is assembled in the soldier's tower, in which he eliminates the place for complete secrecy. Satellite jammers are located along the perimeter of the gorge edge. If they are turned off, an alarm will go off and a thermonuclear bomb will explode in the gorge. The gorge appeared in the 1950s. Earlier, biological weapons research was conducted at this place. When the gorge collapsed, missiles with biological weapons were hit. This gas changes living beings at the dna level by connecting them together. A cavalry battalion was sent to this area, which disappeared without a trace in the gorge. 80 years have passed since that time, and the year is 2025. This place is run by a company whose goal is to use the creatures from the gorge to create super soldiers. Sometimes "hollow people," as the first guardian of the east tower called them, try to get to the surface. They have remnants of intelligence, as well as hunger, and are driven by it. The task of the tower guards is to prevent this. They are forbidden to interact with each other. "Hollow people" have a human-like appearance, they used to be human, but their genes have mixed with animals and plants. There are other creatures in the gorge that little is known about, they do not climb out of the gorge. There are no flying creatures in the gorge. The towers are equipped with everything to keep the guard alive: weapons, ammunition, solar panels, a sauna, and water collectors. Gas infection occurs for five days, some people have immunity. The gas has weakened over time and it cannot leave the gorge. There is a risk of infection if you come into contact with mutants and hollow people from the gorge The Fog in the gorge is of three kinds, containing human, insect, and plant DNA. It is not sentient. Origin of "The Hollow Men" "The Hollow Men" inhabiting the gorge are the result of failed secret experiments to create super-soldiers. These experiments were conducted by the anti-Hitler coalition countries in an underground laboratory after World War II. The goal was to merge human DNA with the genes of plants and insects. After a devastating earthquake, the laboratory was destroyed, a substance leak occurred, and the created hybrids broke free, overrunning the gorge. Their numbers were later supplemented by mutated cavalrymen who were sent to contain the disaster. Appearance and Nature These are hybrid creatures whose genes represent a bizarre and frightening combination of human, plant, and insect traits. One source notes that some of the monsters may resemble the walking dead from "Pirates of the Caribbean." Behavior and Threat The monsters strive to break out of the gorge to the surface, which poses a serious danger to the entire world. They periodically attack the guard towers in waves. Other Inhabitants of the Gorge Carnivorous trees that try to devour any living thing that touches them; they operate on the principle of a Venus flytrap. Spiders whose carapace is made of human skulls; they are about the size of a human head. A plant that resembles the human nervous system; at its nerve endings are moving, clearly already dead, people. There aren't any other creatures there anymore.
