Chapter 163

[Integrity First] Live Room:

"!"

"Ah, I think so, it's true that the small church in the atrium looks unusual..."

"Although some anchors have touched there before, they basically either cast a wide net to open the map, or they fled in a panic during the chasing battle. This is the first time I have seen such a clear purpose."

"I have to say that the anchor is really good at finding blind spots!"

"But isn't the dungeon alienated now? No one can tell what will happen next."

"That's true, but this time the feeling should be different from before! I'm already looking forward to this old fan of Ping An Sanatorium!"

Soon, the entire floor was basically explored.

After confirming that there was no missing information, the group went to the closed iron gate again.

Wen Jianyan took a few steps forward cautiously, put his ear close to the closed iron door, and listened to the sound outside with bated breath.

There was a dead silence outside the door, there was no sound of footsteps, and there was no sticky sound when the fleshy membrane wriggled and expanded, only a death-like silence remained.

"I opened the door?"

asked Luce, who was standing by the door.

Wen Jianyan nodded.

After getting an affirmative answer, Luce raised his hand and pressed the button to open the door, only to hear a "sizzling" sound, and the tightly closed iron door in front of him made a rattling hinge sound, and slowly opened.

Light escaped from the widened door and shone into the dark corridor.

Su Cheng wanted to move forward subconsciously. He was still in a coma during the previous chase, and his knowledge of the dungeon was still before he entered the laboratory, let alone that the dungeon had been alienated.

Wen Jianyan grabbed him quickly: "Wait!"

Su Cheng was dragged staggeringly.

He stabilized his body, looked out the door, and couldn't help but gasped.

Although he has returned to the watch world now, there are more things that should not exist in the watch world in the corridor in front of him.

On the walls, on the ground, and on the ceiling, the scarlet flesh membranes were unevenly distributed like a colony of bacteria, as if the neuron-like protrusions were beating rhythmically, but they did not attack them as before, but It is like in the laboratory, maintaining an almost dormant state, motionless and silent.

But, anyway, it shouldn't be here.

Instead, it should disappear without a trace with the bell as before.

"Isn't this... the bell ringing?"

Huang Mao's face showed a look of surprise and uncertainty, and asked in a low voice, "Why..."

"Haven't you realized it?"

Wen Jianyan turned his head and glanced at the yellow hair, and said, "We haven't returned to the original position."

Huang Mao was taken aback.

yes.

In the past, after entering the inner world, no matter how long they ran in the inner world, the position of the watch world would not change.

When the bell rang, logically speaking, the internal and external worlds would also complete the change, and they would return to the position before the bell rang, which was the door of the laboratory.

But this time it was different.

Even though the bell rang, they were still in the dean's room.

"There are two possibilities,"

Wen Jianyan took a deep breath slowly and said, "The dungeon rules have changed, or..."

"Or what?"

Luce asked urgently.

Wen Jianyan turned to look at him and said, "The dungeon rules haven't changed, it's just that we misunderstood it at first."

"Let's go, no matter what, we have to leave this floor first."

The area covered by the meat film on the iron door was too large, and it was impossible to get close at all. You could only see the winding downward stairwell through the gap—the inside was also densely covered with scarlet mucous film, and there was almost no landing area.

So, everyone came to the elevator with a glimmer of hope.

Thankfully, the elevator still works without a hitch.

Watching the elevator rise slowly, it opened in front of everyone, revealing the old brass-colored inner wall inside.

There were no signs of erosion inside.

Several people looked at each other and walked in cautiously.

Although taking the stairs is the safest way, in the current situation, the elevator has become their only choice.

"Om—"

Accompanied by the roar of the machine, the elevator started running again and slowly sank down.

The metal floor under his feet vibrated, and as the elevator cable stretched, the iron box gradually moved away from the fourth floor.

【4】

【3】

Watching the numbers decrease evenly on the narrow screen, Wen Jianyan let out a long sigh of relief.

Su Cheng turned to look at him, and asked in surprise, "Are you so nervous?"

Wen Jianyan: "Yes."

After all, the sound of the elevator running was not low, and he was really worried that when the elevator was running halfway—

"Crack...crack!"

Intense mechanical sounds sounded from the top of the head, like the blunt sound of the hinges not being oiled for a long time, accompanied by the irregular flickering of the brass-colored lights, the iron box vibrated violently.

Everyone subconsciously raised their hands to support the wall, and everyone's faces were involuntarily filled with panic.

"Here, what's going on here?"

"Oops... no way?" Wen Jianyan: "."

He raised his hand expressionlessly, and slowly wiped his face.

no?

He didn't even say the words...!

Why is it always inexplicably so precise in this kind of thing?

"Crack-click!"

There was the sound of a cable snapping overhead.

In the next second, a strong sense of weightlessness hit, and the old-fashioned elevator quickly slid down the elevator shaft!

The lights above were flickering, and under the flickering light, everyone looked pale. They involuntarily pressed their backs against the wall, and were wrapped in iron boxes to complete the free fall.

The lights went dark.

"Zizi—"

There was a piercing and sharp sound as the metal surface rubbed against each other, making one almost able to see the sparks sputtering out in the darkness, and finally ended with a violent "bang!"!

The whole process is only a few seconds, but it is as long as a whole century.

The elevator finally stopped falling.

All the noises disappeared, and there was a dead silence in the narrow iron box, only the sound of panicked panting could be heard one after another.

"Big, are you all okay?"

Luce took a breath and asked.

"Um."

Everyone calmed down and responded one after another.

The only good thing is that the floor of Ping An Sanatorium is not too high, and it started to fall when it was almost on the second floor. Even if the elevator failed and the shock caused by the fall was frightening, at least it would not cause any harm to the people in it. What a threat.

After two "buzzing" sounds, the spare lights in the corner of the elevator turned on, only a small one, dim and indeterminate, barely illuminated the dark interior, reflecting everyone's still-shocked faces.

Wen Jianyan supported the wall and stood up straight, looking up at the small screen.

It happens to display the words [1] layer.

Wen Jianyan let out a long breath of relief.

fine.

He was still planning for the worst just now, but he didn't expect his luck to be that bad, at least the elevator didn't fall all the way to the bottom.

"Let's go, let's find a way to get out." Wen Jianyan broke the dead silence.

"The elevator is very unstable. It should be stuck here temporarily. I don't know when it will fall." He looked at the crowd and calmly analyzed: "Although it would be dangerous to open the elevator halfway, the below ground The two floors are closed for high-risk patients, and the danger of dealing with them is much greater."

"..."

Everyone recalled the unpleasant experience of dealing with the patients on the second floor, and shivered involuntarily.

really.

Compared to having direct contact with high-risk patients, it might be easier to die by being pinched by an elevator.

"Let's use force together," Luce nodded. "This is an old-fashioned elevator. It shouldn't be too difficult to open the door by force."

Several strong male anchors raised their hands to break the iron elevator door together, using force at the same time.

"Hey!"

The iron door with railings creaked and opened slowly to one side.

The ground on the first floor lay close to the top of the head, barely leaving a narrow gap for one person to climb out of—obviously, the elevator was stuck halfway between the first floor and the first floor.

The iron gate was pulled open.

All that needs to be done now is to venture out one after another.

Wen Jianyan stood on tiptoe, trying to look out through the gap, but the light on the first floor of the nursing home became very dark for some reason, and the visibility was extremely low. Ground, nothing else to see.

He pondered for a while, then turned to look at Huang Mao: "You go first."

Huang Mao's face was as white as paper: "...Huh?"

"You have the best eyesight, and you can quickly see the current state of the first floor and whether you will be in danger when you climb out." Wen Jianyan was not in a hurry, and rationally listed the reasons: "More importantly, you are among us." The one with the narrowest frame, even if you are in danger, or the elevator tends to fall, we can drag you in as quickly as possible."

The second point is the most critical.

Wen Jianyan just visually estimated the size of everyone. The gap is too narrow. He has a similar skeleton as Lu Si. Although he can pass through, it is easy to get stuck in the middle when he is in a hurry. Although Su Cheng It's barely suitable, but the weight gain in Jiguan's feeding is a bit excessive, and the risk of getting stuck is not small.

Although Shaoyao can also go up, she doesn't have the visual advantage of the yellow hair in the dark. Even if she goes up first, it won't play a big role.

"Okay, okay." Huang Mao reluctantly nodded with a sad face.

"As soon as you find something wrong, call someone immediately, understand?"

Wen Jianyan exhorted.

Huang Mao took a deep breath, and nodded as if he was dead.

After everything was ready, several people held Huangmao's body and let him crawl out along the gap.

"Did you see anything?"

Wen Jianyan dragged Huang Mao's leg, supported the other's weight with his shoulders, and asked in a raised voice.

"It's dark outside..."

Huangmao's voice came through the iron gate, it sounded muffled and distant.

"The overhead lights are gone, it's like—"

In the next second, Huangmao's voice suddenly stopped, as if his throat was strangled by something.

Wen Jianyan felt that the other party's body seemed to freeze suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Wen Jianyan frowned, and an ominous premonition slowly rose.

"..."

After a brief silence, Huangmao let out a hysterical scream of panic, breaking the dead silence: "Pull me back! Pull me back!! Quick!!"
