Chapter 11: The Dark Vortex 16
In the empty and dead passages-
Lloyd grabbed the bottle of the antidote in his hand, looking up and down, left and right, searching for clues that Catou might have left behind. However, except for the bend, the whole passage is very bright, and the situation in the passage can be basically said to be unobstructed, and Kathu does not leave any clues.
"That's not right! If there are no clues, it means that Kathu disappeared in an instant, and he definitely won't be captured by the ghost. Lloyd was thinking anxiously, because time would not allow him to grind there, otherwise Kathu's life would be in danger!
"In ...... There......" Qiu Min's voice came from the passage again.
Lloyd didn't look around this time, because if he did, he was looking in vain, and the sound source of this voice was very strange, and it seemed that it was impossible to capture the sound source. So Lloyd narrowed his eyes and looked left and right, and sure enough, there was no empty figure.
"Right next to you......" Qiu Min's voice lingered very faintly in Lloyd's ears, as if she was next to her.
This made Lloyd shudder, since Qiu Min's disappearance, strange things have happened one after another......
"Where the hell it is, you can tell it directly! Why don't you come out and show me? Lloyd raised a little decibel and said, after all, he didn't want to attract the attention of the people in the secret rooms.
When Lloyd said this, Qiu Min's voice disappeared completely.
Lloyd frowned, thinking that this was really not a joke at all. Then, where Kathu disappeared, he leaned against the wall where Katu was leaning against before, as if Kathu was injured. Lloyd thought that his left foot was in severe pain, and then looked at the side leading to the evil laboratory, and he couldn't see anything, which was really anxious, and Catou must have felt the same way at that time.
Lloyd, still thinking of himself as an injured state, stood up with difficulty against the wall, limping forward. Considering that Kathu was in severe pain, at this time he should have taken a difficult breath after taking a step, and then unconsciously hit the wall, using the wall as a lean, Lloyd walked like this, stumbled along the wall for several steps, and sure enough, he touched a mechanism, and then a dark pipe was directly opened on the wall.
This is a rectangular iron pipe that extends into the ground, bottomless, and the slope is quite large, and if you want to fall into it, it is no less than a roller coaster. Lloyd hesitated for a moment, because if Kathu wasn't down here, then how to get up after going down, the time wasted would really cause Kathu to miss the best time to detoxify.
"Trust your own judgment!" Lloyd whispered to himself, squeezed the antidote bottle tightly in his right hand, and jumped into the slide-like pipe.
As soon as he jumped into the dark pipe, the door closed by itself. And Lloyd couldn't stop sliding down the pipe, and it was pitch black in front of him, only the sound of the air whistling in his ears as he slid down rapidly.
After sliding for a long time, Lloyd saw a bright spot below, and it seemed that he was about to reach the bottom, so Lloyd curled up his knees, ready to roll forward the moment he slipped to the ground, and buffered the speed.
Who knew that when Lloyd popped out of this pipe opening, he plunged into a pile of white cloth-wrapped things, neither soft nor hard.
Lloyd quickly glanced at the antidote bottle in his hand, which was intact, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're finally ...... Here it comes! Kathu's voice came from the side, and the tough guy could be felt trembling in his voice.
Lloyd laughed evilly, feeling that his choice was simply too right! He rushed towards Kathu.
"You...... Get...... Is there an antidote? Kathu's face had begun to turn pale, but he still spoke with firmness and force.
"Here we are! Come, just pour it and neutralize it! Lloyd sprinkled the antidote on Kathu's left leg.
Smoke erupted from Kathu's left foot! Catou gritted his teeth and looked at his left foot.
Miraculous things really happened, after neutralization, Kathu's injuries were greatly reduced, only there were still some small wounds on the wound, but compared to the fatal pinprick pain just now, such an injury was like a mosquito bite.
"Lloyd, you're so funny, I thought I was going to die down here. You can find such a mechanism, and you dare to jump down, I really admire your ability and courage! Kathu said gratefully to Lloyd, because in the following time, Catou had gradually begun to despair as time went on.
Lloyd bared his white teeth, raised an eyebrow, and gave a thumbs up.
"But don't be too happy, you see......" Kathu pointed in front of him.
Lloyd looked in front of him and froze instantly......
"It's an underground cell !!" Lloyd shouted loudly, looking at the scene in front of him in amazement.
"Underground electrolyzers? What is it for? Kathu asked.
The underground cell was constructed in such a way that Lloyd and Kathu were standing on one side of a bank covered with white cloth, with a channel of bubbling green liquid flowing across the ground, and more than twenty rectangular passages leading to the other side.
At the top of the channel in the middle of the flowing green liquid, there is a moving hook that keeps passing over the top of the middle of the green liquid, and then loosens the thing that hangs on it, wraps it in a white cloth, and throws it into the green liquid. With the sound of crackling electricity, you can see that the bubbling in the green liquid is more intense.
"Why do I think this green fluid in the middle is blocking our way?" Kathu looked at the disgusting green liquid and kicked something wrapped in a white cloth into the green liquid, and it crackled and bubbled, and then sank.
"Look at the two sides of this underground end, there are two large electrode devices." Lloyd gestured to the giant contraption with green liquid stuck in both ends.
In this case, these green liquids are special electrolytes. Originally, this function was used to make metals of high purity. However, these people are using these weird green liquids as electrolytes. Are they going to make ......" Lloyd gasped, but coughed because the smell was disgusting. Lloyd glanced at what was wrapped in the white cloth, which was supposed to be a rotting corpse, emitting a foul smell.
"The kind of moving skeletons and carrion, the means of metal extraction and crafting...... It always gives me a bad association. Kathu looked at the green liquid in front of him and said with some uneasiness.
