Radioactive
The nuclear power plant facility was about the size of three football fields. In total, it had a dozen smaller buildings and four main buildings, which were the reactors.
As they carefully closed in on the power plant, Viktor could more clearly see how much of a mess the place was in.
Half of the place was either almost completely burned down or had become rubble. From the looks of it, two out of the four reactors had most likely had a meltdown for some time. It was no wonder that the place was full of radioactivity, hence the glowing undead.
But that was not all. Viktor also noticed a strange, unpleasant smell in the air that made him reflexively frown and pinch his nose; a mix of rusty metal, rotten flesh, and something he could not quite pinpoint. The sharp smell reminded him of gasoline, but it was not quite it.
