The elevator door opened slowly.
The two oppressed and somewhat deformed metal doors struggled to open a gap, rubbing against the ground to make an unpleasant and harsh creaking sound.
Inside and outside the door is an empty and dead darkness, only the numbers on the screen are shining with a blood-red gleam.
The faint smell of blood came from the deep shadows outside the elevator, and the faint smell of rust seemed to slide into the chest cavity along the breathing duct, leaving a salty fishy smell on the rough tongue coating.
In the dead silence, Mo Yi could almost hear the resonance of his own slow and even heartbeat and breathing.
He and Jiang Yuanrou looked at each other, then turned sideways, and carefully squeezed out the gap between the elevator doors one after the other.
The familiar corridors in memory appeared in front of my eyes.
There was a pale and weak light in the depths of the corridor, but it was far from able to dispel the shadows in the long corridor. The high iron railings in front reflected the cold and dim light.
It seems that there is no change from before leaving, as if opening the branch line has not affected this floor.
But Mo Yi and Jiang Yuanrou couldn't take it lightly—after all, the thrilling scene they experienced in front of the railing was still fresh in their memory.
They lowered their breath and walked towards the railing lightly.
Mo Yi took out the small silver key from his pocket, and then walked to the iron door. Jiang Yuanrou turned on the flashlight knowingly to shine it on the keyhole, and held it with his palm to prevent the light from leaking out.
With the sound of a slight metal collision, there was a light "click" sound from the iron door supported by the palm, and then slowly and silently slid open.
Mo Yi let out a breath slowly, pressed the hinge of the iron door with one hand to prevent it from making a sound, and then carefully pushed the door open.
They walked out quietly.
The corridor in front of him split into two forks, Mo Yi lowered his eyes and made a calculation in his heart, then made a gesture to Jiang Yuanrou:
go straight.
Although there are many rooms where you can hide when you go to the right, but according to the behavior of the boss on this floor, it is estimated that the same trick can't deceive her a second time.
Although the woman left from this direction before, it was also a shortcut to get to the elevator faster.
Jiang Yuanrou nodded, then turned off the flashlight in his hand, and walked forward together with Mo Yi.
They walked through the unlit corridor and came to a fork.
Mo Yi subconsciously looked up at the wall illuminated by the pale light, on which were written two crooked words in half-frozen bright blood: Area B, blood flows down the corner of the writing, in the cold and dirty Snaking marks on dirty walls.
He took two steps forward slowly, turned sideways and looked out.
Familiar voices entered the eardrums.
Tick, tick.
The vague sound of water droplets came from the darkness, penetrating the dead silence in the corridor evenly and rhythmically, making people subconsciously tense.
Mo Yi was taken aback for a moment, and his face turned ugly for a moment.
What was different before was that this time the sound of water droplets came from the direction of the elevator.
And when I came last time, the lights in this main corridor were almost all turned off, this time, all I could hear was a weak and continuous ticking sound from the deep darkness, as if every point was being hit hard. on the atrium of the human heart.
But according to the current situation, the two can only walk in the direction where the sound came from—who made the elevator be deep in that direction
He turned his head and whispered to Jiang Yuanrou, "You walk behind me."
The target of the boss on this floor is female players, and her item cooling time has not yet expired, so if she is caught now, it will be a dead end.
Jiang Yuanrou nodded cautiously.
Mo Yi took a deep breath slowly, a thin layer of cold sweat slowly seeped from his back, he turned on the flashlight in his hand—
Although this may expose his position, stepping into the darkness of ignorance without a light source is no different from dying. This is a risk he must take.
The two walked slowly towards the depths of the corridor one after the other.
As their steps approached, the sound of water droplets in their ears gradually changed from distant and vague to clear and loud, and the smell of blood in the air gradually became more intense, crowding and occupying every sense of the person.
Tick, tick.
At this moment, Mo Yi suddenly slowed down his pace, and he slowly frowned in the darkness.
There was a sticky and slippery touch under the feet, and the sound of wet water stains came from the footsteps, which was amplified several times in the dark and cramped corridor, and it was clearly transmitted to the eardrums.
Mo Yi lowered his wrist and shone the light on his feet with the flashlight.
The round spot of the flashlight was reflected on the mirror-like ground, and it took Mo Yi a few seconds to realize that the entire ground in the corridor ahead was covered by a dark red pool of blood as flat as the surface of a lake.
The smell of blood in the air was almost solidified, making one's stomach tumbling.
Suddenly a little ripple appeared on the mirror-like blood pool illuminated by the flashlight, and the gentle arc-shaped ripples slowly fainted from a distance, disrupting the flashlight spot printed on it into pieces.
tick.
The sound of water droplets seemed to be right in front of us.
Mo Yi's heart was beating violently in his chest, his cold fingers subconsciously clenched the flashlight in his hand, and his fingertips turned white due to the force.
He slowly raised his wrist, and shone in the direction where the ripples spread.
The beam of light from the flashlight pierced through the dense, solid darkness, illuminating not far away—
Seeing the situation in front of him, Mo Yi's eyes widened involuntarily, and he subconsciously gasped.
I saw a dead body nailed high on the wall a few steps away from him. Its body was firmly pressed against the wall like a taxidermy butterfly. A pale and deformed face was looking at Mo Its eyes were bright red slits, and its twisted lips stretched to the ears, revealing a huge and weird smile.
The blood soaked the long silk skirt hanging lifelessly, and the blood dripped down the wet skirt—
Tick, tick.
Round ripples appeared on the mirror-like dark pool of blood on the ground as the blood dripped down.
The boss who had chased them on the second floor before... was nailed to the wall, just like her victims.
Jiang Yuanrou followed the flashlight in Mo Yi's hand to see the scene in front of him, and let out a sharp inhalation from behind him.
She couldn't control her volume a little bit, and was a little incoherent for a while:
"This this… ?"
Mo Yi took a tentative step forward, and looked at the corpse hanging on the wall for a while—it looked lifeless and motionless, as if it was completely dead.
His brows were tightly wrinkled, but he didn't feel any relaxed emotion in his heart. Instead, it was like a heavy boulder was pressing on his heart, which was so heavy that it made people panic.
The danger of this floor suddenly changed from known to vague unknown.
And... the woman who can kill this floor will only be more dangerous than her.
Mo Yi subconsciously thought of Edwin who had been released from the negative floor, his lips were tightly pursed and his face was gloomy.
Jiang Yuanrou also recovered from the shock just now, she stared at the corpse nailed to the wall, her face was still a little blue, she lowered her voice, and said:
"We need to get out of this floor as soon as possible."
The two thought of being together by coincidence—this floor is not suitable for staying for a long time.
Mo Yi nodded, turned the direction of the flashlight in front of him again, then quickened his pace, and walked towards the elevator at the end of the corridor together with Jiang Yuanrou.
The blood pool under their feet made a sticky sound with their steps, echoing between the empty and silent walls.
They walked up to the elevator, Jiang Yuanrou stepped forward like last time, and forcefully opened the elevator door.
Half of the elevator room was exposed between the two metal doors. It was stuck in the middle when Mo Yi was going upstairs before it stopped, and it was obviously still stuck in place now.
Mo Yi stepped forward, bent down and looked into the elevator. The bright beam of the flashlight illuminated the narrow space inside the elevator.
The inside of the elevator looks horrible. The metal skin on the ground and one side of the wall was punctured by something hard. The hard iron skin is rolled inward, shining a sharp luster under the light, and you can see it through the holes. There was deep darkness outside the elevator.
It looked dangerous and scary.
But it is the only way.
Jiang Yuanrou took a deep breath, supported the ground with his palms, and jumped into the elevator in a flash.
The elevator under her feet made a hoarse sound with her movements, and the noose sounded tense. Mo Yi saw the top of the elevator, which was at the same level as her body, tremble violently, and then slowly come to a stillness in the darkness.
Mo Yi's heart was half relieved.
He took off his backpack and threw it to Jiang Yuanrou who was standing in the middle of the elevator, and then imitated what she did just now, supported the ground with his palms, and then jumped into the elevator slowly and cautiously, although he put his The movement was as gentle as possible, but the elevator still made a sharp friction sound, and then sank downward.
The sound of the rope being tightened and the strange sound of metal screeching came from the narrow and enclosed space.
Jiang Yuanrou quickly took a few steps forward, then skillfully groped around the small screen, found and opened the metal plate.
She swiped the scarlet card in the card slot inside, and then the elevator vibrated suddenly.
The metal doors of the elevator closed slowly.
The same bright red -2 as last time and a small inverted triangle appeared on the dark screen.
The elevator began to run slowly and silently, then accelerated and descended.
Mo Yi still did not dare to let go, he turned around, and then used the flashlight in his hand to shine on the huge gaps in the elevator.
The hard steel wall seemed vulnerable to the attack of the unknown creature, and the white iron skin rolled inward, looking like tofu that had been crushed.
Through the irregular openings, one can see the fast-moving and changing darkness outside.
The sharp blade turned inward by the iron sheet shone strangely under the light of the flashlight, flashing and flashing with the slight shaking of the elevator.
Mo Yi frowned slightly, took a step forward and squatted down, then tentatively reached out and wiped lightly on the turned up iron sheet.
He rubbed his fingertips, and there was a weird and slippery touch on his fingers.
Mo Yi spread out his palms and looked at his fingertips under the light, only to see that his cold fingertips were covered with a layer of fine silver-white powder.
It seems to be... scale powder
