Chapter 101: Hide
"Where are you? You demon in this world, I will dig three feet into the ground, and I will find you. I'm going to tear you to pieces, I'm going to make you miserable......"
The huge arm is in the corridor on the first floor, slowly moving forward in a snake-like twisted and strange posture. And Yao, who was attached to the Tower of Despair, would not have thought that it had already hidden with Lu Lie countless times. Because Lu Lie hid in a utility room between a wall where his arms passed.
In the dim and damp utility room, Lu Lie grew silently and gasped for breath. He didn't dare to make the slightest sound, and even his own heartbeat and breathing were suppressed to a minimum by the power of the Eternal Heart.
Because Lu Lie had already discovered that Yao had only penetrated into the first floor of the Tower of Despair with only one arm, and there were no eyes on his arm, how could he discover himself? The reason is simple, Yao's arm is more sensitive to sound and the outside world than human imagination, even if it is the flow of the wind, the change of air current, the slightest creak of feet on the earth, and the change of air by travelers of different shapes as they run, Yao can keenly distinguish who is who and who is doing what.
And after Lu Lie ran wildly, he found that his advantage in speed was only a slight lead for Yao's arm. If you run on the endless plains, you can naturally rely on that little advantage to slowly open up the gap with it, and finally get rid of it. But on the first floor of the Tower of Despair, which is so big in this place, no matter how much he goes around in circles, no matter how agile he is, as long as Yao maintains enough patience, it is only a matter of time before the other party catches him.
As for escaping directly from the Tower of Despair, don't be kidding, Lu Lie didn't even think of this idea. In the Tower of Despair, he only had to face Yao's arm. If you run out of the Tower of Despair, you will have to face Yao's real person directly.
So he chose to hide in this inconspicuous blind spot and let himself enter a state of turtle breath. Although there is a danger of being spotted by the giant arm that is slapped indiscriminately, it is much less likely to be attacked than if you run around.
Lu Lie lay here silently, and after Yaozhi's arm on the wall passed by, he quietly took two brooms and a broken table and covered him. In this way, even if Yao's fingertips accidentally wiped himself, he would think that it was just a pile of miscellaneous things piled up.
Minutes and seconds passed. It seems that the intelligence of that arm alone is not very high, and he groped back and forth in several corridors for a long time without finding Lu Lie. The traveler who was still waiting in the hall was bitter, and once he was caught by Yao's arm, he immediately pinched it into blood sauce and offered to confirm it, and after finding that it was not Lu Lie's bones, he came back again to continue his exploration.
It's not that there are travelers who are about to collapse and rush out and want to leave this hellish place. But those guys didn't rush out through the front or back doors, whether they were four-legged or winged, as soon as they left the Tower of Despair, it wouldn't be long before the people inside heard a rapid scream from outside, and then a corpse was thrown into the tower. The flesh is blurred and miserable. After a few turns, no one had any luck, so they could only continue to stay in the hall honestly.
During the time when the giant arm was slowly groping, it was a torment for Lu Lie, who was hiding in the utility room, and it was also a torment for the many alien travelers who suffered from the unwarranted disasters in the hall.
An hour passed......
Two hours passed......
Four hours passed......
Yao's arm groped repeatedly on the ground, but he never found Lu Lie, a mosquito-like agile and cunning guy. Its arms began to become a little irritable, and in the process of groping, it directly crushed the furniture, painting walls and the like. At this moment, less than three-tenths of the travelers in the hall had survived the beginning, and the threat of death still hovered over them, and many travelers were holding their heads in pain.
When will this calamity end?
"Lu Lie. From the outer layer of the Tower of Despair came Yao's dull and terrifying voice, which shook the walls of the entire first floor, "How long are you going to hide here like a mouse? How many aliens are outside because you have been slaughtered? And because of your inaction, how many aliens have to accept the fate of extermination? Have you not noticed until now, you are the embodiment of calamity and terror." Wherever you go, there will be disasters and suffering. And from the very beginning of your climb up the giant tree, I have been watching you, watching you...... I know, you're the one I'm looking for, and you can't escape......"
Lu Lie huddled tightly in the corner of the utility room, still not sending out any business. He could feel Yao's voice not far from him, and its arm had stopped again in the hallway, next door to the utility room he was. But the bastard still didn't find out where he was. Lu Lie could even feel it slightly, and its voice showed that it was already starting to feel a little anxious.
Anxious whether he has run away, anxious about whether the cooked duck has flown away. After all, Yao's arm had been touched back and forth so many times on the entire first floor of the Tower of Despair, and he hadn't even noticed a single hair of Lu Lie. Those who are as strong as Yao can't help but start to wonder: Is this guy still on the first floor?
Now, all Lu Lie has to do is be patient. It's a tug-of-war that no one knows about. Yao's patience can't be infinitely good, it will eventually get out of control. Before that, the only thing Lu Lie could do was to pray that he would not be discovered.
The only thing that surprised Lu Lie and even made him a little frightened was that the first floor of the Tower of Despair had been turned upside down, and even the Administrator Purple Demon had been killed, but there was still no movement or support from the upper floor. Could it be that the Tower of Despair could really allow this guy Yao to wreak havoc like this? Could it be that the Lord of Despair had completely given up on one floor?
Giggle......
Suddenly, there was a strange sound on the wall.
Lu Lie was still curled up in his pile of debris, motionless. Under this dim light, his whole temperament has been integrated with this utility room. Even if Yao's finger passed over him, nine times out of ten he wouldn't notice his existence.
Giggle......
The sound of the old monk beating the wooden fish came again, but this time it was clearer than the last time, as if it was ...... It's also closer to itself. Lu Lie, who was motionless, couldn't help but blink his eyes, he began to feel that there was silence nearby, and something was not quite right: how could the sound of giant arms crawling outside, Yao's angry roar, and those low cries in the hall have all disappeared?
Seems...... In this whole layer, it is as if only one person is left.
Could it be that Yao has completely given up on himself and left here?
In order to confirm his judgment, Lu Lie waited in place for another half an hour, until he was extremely sure that there was nothing unusual in the vicinity. He raised his head slightly, just so that his gaze could be changed and he could see the things around him more easily.
Click.
Because my body hasn't moved for too long, so that when I raised my head slightly, there was a sound of bones on my neck. The sound was very slight, but it was very clear in the absolute silence of the space.
Lu Lie was a little frightened, he knew that if Yao's arm was still around here, it would definitely lock him immediately.
But no...... After Lu Lie raised his neck, he waited for fifty breaths. Everything around is still quiet to the extreme, and it is also terrifying to the extreme.
(Could it be that Yao, the bastard, really left this place because he couldn't find himself?)
Lu Lie's mind couldn't help but have this idea. But even so, he still didn't dare to get up and move. Because according to Lu Lie's understanding of this monster, its obsession and madness are far beyond the scope of normal people's understanding, if others leave, Lu Lie believes it. But if Yao did this, Lu Lie would always feel weird.
On the contrary, the other party has not moved for so long, and instead of believing that the other party is gone, Lu Lie is more inclined to believe that this guy is planning a bigger conspiracy.
Giggle...... The strange sound came out again, and this time Lu Lie found its location, which was in the upper left corner of the utility room.
Lu Lie turned his head slightly again and turned his neck. He struggled to see what was hidden in the source of the voice.
But he saw a picture he didn't want to seeβ
It was a basketball-sized eyeball, hanging from the corner of the wall. At the same time that Lu Lie looked at it, that eyeball also turned its eyes and looked at Lu Lie!
"Bastard!"
Lu Lie knew that his whereabouts had been exposed. He jumped to his feet instantly, casually lifted a table that was spread flat on the ground, and threw it in the direction of the eyeball. At the same time, he spread his legs and ran towards the outside of the utility room.
Giggle......
A row of tentacles grew out of the underbelly of the eyeball, and before the table slammed into the corner, it twisted and ran away in an eerie position.
"Hey, hey, hey, the rat hiding in the utility room, no wonder I can't find you no matter how I look for it, and now I'm finally showing my original form. β
With a gloomy and smug smile, the long-disappeared black giant hand once again rushed into the sky, with an unstoppable roar and loud noise, and smashed down on Lu Lieββ
"Yao!
Lu Lie let out a grief, and one turned around and barely dodged Yao's attack, and changed direction again and ran towards the other end.
"This time, don't think you'll be able to escape from me. β
At the same time, the vision returned!
