Section XXXVIII Post-War 2

The empty unfinished building looks secluded and mysterious in the darkness.

By this time, the entire building had fallen silent, and no sound could be heard here except for the inevitable chirping of insects in the autumn night.

However, even so, he could clearly feel what was happening here, because Lu Wu clearly remembered that the road was very smooth in the past, but now it was full of gravel. Well, it's not crushed stone, it's crushed cement blocks.

But there are ...... Something that doesn't feel natural......

I can't tell what's going on, but Lu Wu feels a little dizzy in his brain, just like sleeping until midnight when he was living in a student dormitory and was woken up to watch a football game. I can't say that my brain is not clear, but I always feel that my thinking is relatively dull. And there's no reason for it, it's just that he really wants to go upstairs, as if there's something upstairs that he cares about and wants to see.

Looking through the flashlight of the mobile phone, you can see that the staircase has been destroyed by an explosion. The staircase, which was intact during the day, is now a pile of construction debris. Now it's a hassle to go upstairs. However, following the light of the phone, it seems possible to walk up the edge of the blown up staircase. However, this risk is relatively large, because on the one hand, I don't know if the remnants of the stairs will collapse again, and on the other hand, the entire remnants are only about ten centimeters, and people have to walk against the wall on such a rope-thick path...... It's okay to jump off in a lower place, but it's dangerous to jump off in a higher place. If you don't get it right, you can fall to your death.

【…… Come...... Come over ......]

Faintly, a voice could be heard calling. But once I settled down and listened carefully, I found that there was no sound. There was only silence in all directions.

But for some reason, Lu Wu felt an impulse in his heart to walk up the remnants of this dangerous staircase and see what was happening on it. Over here...... Something must have happened. Because the stairs don't explode on their own inexplicably. With this thought in mind, Lu Wu stepped onto the stairs.

【…… Come...... Let's ......]

As if sleepwalking, by the time Lu Wu came back to his senses, he was already on the stairs from the second to the third floor.

Both stairs have been blown up, and Lu Wu is really walking too high now. As mentioned earlier, the lower floors of this building are not the height of ordinary residential buildings. At this time, looking down, it was pitch black, like a bottomless abyss.

If you fall, you'll fall to your death. Lu Wu retracted his gaze and made a summary of the crisis he was facing in his heart.

He now had his back against the wall, stepping on a rather protruding cement slab. Although it is more prominent, it is only enough to accommodate Lu Wu's two feet. Both in front and in the back, the situation was even worse - the remaining stairs could only accommodate Lu Wu's heels.

How did you get up just now? He couldn't figure it out himself.

In short, it is a dilemma now, and if it falls, this height ...... Such a dark environment, and the messy (he had seen it when he came up) construction waste heaps below, I am afraid that there is only one dead end. But what happened to me just now? Such a dangerous place, so recklessly?

He took a deep breath and found that his palms were already covered with sweat.

【…… Come...... Come over ......]

In my head, once again, a slight call sounded.

Under normal circumstances, Lu Wu would probably ignore this slight sound, or think of it as an auditory hallucination or something. But this time, because he was facing the danger of his life, Lu Wu's entire spirit was raised to the most vigilant state, and he was fully absorbed to the limit. This time, he clearly recognized the voice.

"Who—who's calling me?" he said subconsciously. And then it suddenly dawned on reason that this was not normal. Something, or something, is summoning Lu Wu to come over. And that exists...... It's upstairs. I don't know how many floors it is, but it should be a relatively high location.

Just now, Lu Wu was facing the broken staircase on the first floor, but he suddenly had the intention of going upstairs, and then came to this location inexplicably...... I guess it's all thanks to it.

Normal people should be panicked at this time, but Lu Wu may have stayed with Amber for a long time and has seen a lot, maybe he has the qualifications in this area, in short, he has no fear in his heart. I can't help but have no fear, and I have a great curiosity.

Is it a demon? No, it can't be...... If it's an evil ghost, it should immediately pounce and kill people, so that it won't play this kind of trick of waiting for the rabbit. Because this trick is so stupid...... So, what is it?

There are two conclusions that can be drawn, first, this existence is not very powerful, otherwise, it probably wouldn't have waited here, let alone lost control halfway. Second, this existence requires Lu Wu.

There are no street lights on this side of the unfinished building, so the light comes entirely from moonlight and starlight. The inside of the building is much darker than the outside. If it weren't for the fact that there was no exterior wall around the unfinished building, so that there was a tiny moonlight falling, it is estimated that it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as "reaching out and not seeing five fingers". In fact, even with the help of a little light, human vision is very limited.

Upward, you can vaguely see the staircase that is still intact, downward, there is a bottomless dark abyss, and if you go left and right, you can only see a step away.

Although Lu Wu wanted to take out his mobile phone and use the flashlight function of his mobile phone to take a good look at the damage to the stairs on the left and right, his back was tightly pressed against the wall, and he couldn't open the mobile phone case on his waist. Normally, it's a simple thing that can be done with one hand in an instant, but in this case it can't be done.

How do I walk? I think I have to lean against the wall, move my feet with minimal steps, and walk up slowly little by little. Of course, you can also go on. However, I couldn't see which floor I was close to, so I just walked up.

But all of a sudden, there was a slight shaking under my feet.

That's not an illusion, it's that the piece of cement under his feet can't support his weight. And it feels like it's not just the piece under your feet, but if it collapses this time, it will involve a considerable area on the side. There is no other choice but to leave quickly

If you take small steps, it will definitely be too late, then, there is only a big stride...... But if you take a big stride......

Lu Wu stepped forward as fast as he could, and as soon as his front foot left, the piece of cement immediately loosened. I can clearly feel the sound of a row of cement falling to the ground on the first floor, making a continuous impact sound of "pop".

Although it is close to the wall, it seems that I can clearly remember the feeling of the body when I was sleepwalking just now. When you are sleepwalking, you can move forward steadily and quickly, so if that's the case, it's better to keep it that way.

This is because he has a talent for this, that is, he has a strong memory in a short period of time.

This memory ability is not only to remember what the eyes see, but also what the ears hear, and of course, what the body feels. In a short period of time, the action can be repeated accurately.

For example, Lu Wu once won the group stage championship of the darts throwing competition. In fact, it was a coincidence that the first dart was able to hit the bull's-eye, but then, repeat the action just now, so that all the darts can hit the bull's-eye.

The same is true for now. It's just a matter of remembering the technique you used to move your body just now, so you can repeat it now.

Lu Wu breathed a sigh of relief when he stepped on the fourth floor.

【…… Come...... Come here......] The mysterious voice sounded in his mind again, but he could clearly feel that his original seductive ability was declining. At least now Lu Wu felt that the voice was similar to when he and Amber were talking across the "World Boundary Wall". I understand what it means, but that's all.

"Who are you?" Lu Wu asked softly in his mouth. This is the technique used to talk to Amber in the first place, and according to Amber, as long as he speaks, whether it is light or heavy, Amber can hear him. Since this person can use telepathy like Amber, this method should also work.

It doesn't seem to have any effect, though.

Lu Wu walked up the stairs quickly.

With the staircase, things were completely different, and it didn't take long for him to reach the eighth floor.

Under the light of the mobile phone flashlight, you can clearly see that there is a fierce battle on the eighth floor. The ground was littered with crushed construction debris of all kinds. The main thing is the cement bag. Most of the scrapped cement bags were piled up in a clump of cement bags, but now they are all over the floor.

If you don't consider that each of these hardened cement bags weighs nearly 50 kilograms, it is quite like the consequences of being thrown by a loud child who throws a tantrum.

And the source of that sound is in a pile of inconspicuous construction waste.

【…… Come...... Come over ......]

The voice sounded again, but this time, Lu Wu clearly discerned an urgent emotion from this voice.

He searched carefully and walked over, then saw a metal object reflecting the light of his phone.

When he saw that thing, Lu Wu subconsciously knew that it was this thing that was calling him.

Lying reclining in the midst of a pile of rocks was a sword, or rather, the front half of a sword. There was a strange pattern painted on the spine of the sword, a rudimentary figure like a primitive fresco, but it was vivid enough to tell that it was an eye.

Lu Wu stood in front of the broken blade, but did not touch it.

Speaking of which, this situation has a bit of a "maze adventure" flavor, but this is not a game, and Lu Wu is not the kind of person who can't wait to try to open a treasure chest when he sees it. This supernatural thing must be dangerous.

The voice of the call continued, this time mixed with more temptation, and maybe even trying to manipulate Lu Wu like before. But in any case, the power of this broken blade to "dominate thoughts" seems to be very weak, as long as there is vigilance in the heart, it will not be able to succeed. Lu Wu further determined that what he had just done was exactly what he had done.

"Who are you?" Lu Wu said. The Broken Blade had no ears, but Lu Wu believed it could hear.

【…… Come...... Come here...... Pick me up ......] This time, Broken Blade clearly expressed the idea of letting Lu Wu pick it up.

"If not, I'll move a few cement bags right now...... Push you underneath. As you know, no one will come to this place. Of course, it's also appropriate to stuff you in a cement bag and throw you into the sea or something. ”

【…… It's too ruthless. I just want you to pick me up, is it necessary to use this kind of desperate strategy?]
