Chapter 188 The Fog

In the dark corridor, the three of them, led by the stubborn Sioux City, moved quickly and silently. Along the way, under the silence, Cindy, who had always complained about the environment, slowly became silent, leaving only the sound of soft breathing and sporadic footsteps in the hallway.

Soon, with the help of [Divine Insight], Sioux City led a few people through several damp and strange sections without danger - although they were all non-dangerous things, it was obvious that the occasional sudden flying and falling debris, as well as the faint sound of light laughter, had brought the atmosphere of this unfamiliar team to a freezing point.

As he got closer to his destination, Sioux City was unaffected by the buff of Night Instinct, he still found a big or small problem in Cindy, who stumbled and screamed from time to timeβ€”light.

He discovers that as they get deeper, their surroundings have become unfriendly to players with no lighting or night vision, making it difficult for Cindy, who is too weak of the trio to be negligible enough to keep up with him.

Usually when encountering this situation during the mission, Su Cheng would probably have left the other party behind or let the other party get out of the way, but to be honest, in the current situation, he didn't even have to use his brain to know that these solutions were impossible.

Therefore, after sighing, Sioux City rummaged through the inventory and took out the [Soul Searchlight] from the realm of the dead. A soft and inconspicuous light suddenly lit up in his hand, illuminating a small circle centered on him.

In the faint light, Sioux City put it into Cindy's hands, and didn't say much. Just said to her, "Keep it safe, this thing is expensive." Remember to pay me back", and led the two of them forward quickly.

Quickly followed behind Sioux City. Sindy, who was only as tall as Sioux City's shoulders, had a calm face, and carefully held the soul searchlight with both hands, but at the same time whispered some words: "Things are very expensive, remember to return you...... How expensive can it be, am I going to steal from you? Beware, hypocritical......"

Sioux City, who didn't pay attention to the trap and was preoccupied with checking for the trap, didn't even pay attention to what was behind him, just silently avoided all the places marked by the [Divine Insight] with magical power, and approached the destination in the hint as fast as he could.

It's just that as time passed, Sioux City slowly felt that the space in this fifth layer was obviously an anomaly. At least compared to the volume he estimated when he looked at it from the outside. The interior of the fifth floor was far larger than it seemed, and much more complicated than the rest of the floors he remembered.

In fact, from the moment he discovered that the map on the top right of the retina was unusable, Sioux knew something was wrong.

Although it was not accurately measured, Sioux City could vaguely feel that each corridor was not the same length, and the number of rooms in each corridor was different. While this may not sound like much, for a castle with its first four floors to be intricately designed, it is not unless the designer is insane, or the owner of the castle has made a special request. Otherwise it wouldn't have happened.

In Sioux City's view, the second option is undoubtedly more in line with the current situation.

Because whether it's magic or visual deception, it's designed with one purpose in mind - to prevent anyone, including those with maps and ulterior motives, from entering the center of the fifth level.

There. That is, where the TS-144 is located.

There is a crisis in the journey, but because he has the [Complete Heart of Elfio], which has evolved to the sixth order of black iron, he is blessed with the active blood of his passive skill. Sioux City really can't afford to worry about his own stamina consumption.

Other races may have some scruples, but the human-wolf race with strong recovery ability is obviously not among them. Even if you move forward while doing a handstand. And this fifth layer happens to be a creation of space magic, and he is confident that he will be able to see TS-144 before he sees it. It still maintains sufficient combat effectiveness.

After about ten minutes of walking further, after cutting open the two blood-stained clothes that were floating inexplicably, Su Cheng suddenly smelled a strong sour smell. The next moment, he looked at Cindy solemnly and found that the other party was covering his nose at this time, looking pitiful and tearless.

"Oh my God, this is really ......" Behind him, the noble lady dressed in black thought about it seriously, and finally muttered in a low voice, "It's disgusting enough." ”

Su Cheng glanced at the girl whose true identity was unknown and the game system did not give the slightest hint, and said with a pun, and said with a reminder to Cindy: "The situation will only get worse, both in terms of breathing and vision." ”

"I wish this was just an illusion...... "Miss Noble clenched her fists, but her expression became paler under the reflection of the soul searchlight.

It was rare for the other party to take the initiative to speak, and Su Cheng hurriedly said tentatively: "Miss, although the chance is not big, I still want to ask if you know what is going on here." ”

"No, no clue at all. And if I knew who had made my home like this, I would have made him regret it. The noble lady showed obvious hatred in her eyes and speech, and at the same time added dissatisfiedly: "By the way, I said, you can call Pula, exorcist Sue. ”

Yes, she is still tight-lipped, or her memory is simply missing, and she has no idea how things turned out and what happened behind the scenes. Thinking of this, Su Cheng couldn't help frowning, but still responded gently: "Miss Pula, please mourn." ”

After that, Su Cheng didn't wait for the other party to reply, then turned a corner and took the lead in walking towards the place where the smell came from.

As soon as he turned into a new hallway, Sioux City found that the ground had been corroded by the acidic blood of xenomorphs, large and small. And in the sour smell, there seems to be some familiar smell.

The smell of blood.

It was a heavy, mixed smell of viscera and flesh.

Su Cheng gently turned a simple silver ring on his right hand. This small item is not an ornament, nor is it a small thing to be used for sale - in fact, it is an enchanted piece of equipment, although it is only of the Black Iron level, but the instantaneous exorcism field is obviously more suitable for the current situation than pure violence.

After thinking about it, Su Cheng first turned his head and made a silent gesture to the two people behind him, and then carefully led the two to avoid the acidic liquid on the ground, and carefully helped the two move forward step by step.

After walking for about three or four minutes, Sioux City had already guessed the severity of the battle from the surrounding environment, and based on the superficial situation, Sioux City estimated that most of the people who had fought here were not players.

Although players are not afraid of death, this trait has a drawback, that is, even if they can handle the battle, they often take various damage of unknown significance, and it is common to exchange injuries for injuries.

Only NPCs, these guys who know that they only have one life and cherish their bodies more, will evolve a completely different battle method from the player, and implement it in battle all the time.

And above this corridor, Sioux City could not see anything but sporadic blood splattered on the ground. It's just that the strong smell of blood at the beginning has always been remembered by Sioux City and has never faded.

In the mist, the invisible pressure was like a haze, accompanied by the sound of footsteps from boots on the floor, which entrenched in his heart.

At this moment, Pula stared ahead and suddenly asked solemnly, "Wait...... Look there, that mass of stuff on the ground, what is it? ”

As she spoke, Cindy subconsciously stretched out the soul searchlight in her arms, letting the light shine on the place where Pula was pointing.

Then, a high-pitched scream floated out of her lips uncontrollably.

A corpse, a corpse that does not resemble a human form.

That's all. (To be continued......)
