Chapter 43: A Strange Pipe
Su Le watched the spiders under his feet disperse, and breathed a sigh of relief in his chest, but soon he realized that something was wrong, why didn't they chase after him?
It was easy to catch up with Su Le, as long as they entered this pipe, they could run on eight legs, and at that time Su Le really didn't necessarily outrun them.
Unless there's something in it, and they're afraid of it!
Su Le suddenly remembered at this time that when he first entered this refuge room, he always felt that something was watching him all the time, and after he used his mental power to probe it, he didn't find anything else except for the group of spiders.
Now that he's reacting, there's a good chance that thing is in this pipe!
Because that feeling became more and more intense, Su Le could even feel the bloodlust and cruelty in his eyes!
But at this time, there was no way back, and he could only bite the bullet and continue to go deeper.
Looking at the depths of the dark and deep pipe, Su Le felt helplessness for the first time, and in just one day, he experienced two firsts in his life.
It's not that he hasn't tried to explore the path with his mental power, but his ability is limited, and even if he extends two hundred meters, all he can see is pitch black.
The only thing that is certain is that the pipe does not go straight to the ground, but winds its way underground, and it is up to Providence to lead there.
Su Le urged his brain with all his might, and he had the mental power to support the skeleton and climb quickly, and after reaching a bend, the pipe was horizontal from the vertical side, which allowed it to finally not step on this hairy thing.
Su Le jumped off the skeleton and stomped firmly on the wall of the pipe with both feet. As soon as he got off his feet, there was a slippery feeling coming from his feet, Su Le didn't think much about it, this kind of ventilation duct should be drier, but it is normal to have water.
The road ahead was dark, and he turned on the searchlight on his glasses.
Who knew that the light brought not only hope, but also blood!
Where is the water that Su Le is stepping on, there are blood stains everywhere in this pipe, and the slippery under Su Le's feet is also a puddle of blood!
The scattered bones lay haphazardly on the walls of the pipes, not as dense as the piles of bones in the vault below, but still terrifying.
As below, there was no tissue on the corpse, just a pile of bones!
Walking and walking, Su Le's eyes were a little red, he had been spared in this pipe for almost ten minutes, the mental pressure and endless consumption made him tired and couldn't raise his head, but he had to go out, the people below were not dead, and he was still saved, and he himself needed to recover, but this was obviously not a wise place.
Su Le gritted his teeth and gave himself more strength, and his steps were a little faster.
He didn't discard the skeleton that carried him up at first, but kept floating it in the air and following him, the pipe behind him would definitely still be upright, and he still needed something to carry him up.
But after seeing the scene in front of him, he decisively gave up the skeleton.
There's no shortage of that one.
Su Le took out combat rations and pure water from the companion box, which were always available, and those who had split energy were also human beings, and they also needed to satisfy their hunger. But what they eat is different from what they eat is normal.
The Splinter can eat normal people's food, but that requires a lot of it, so based on the Splitter's physique, the Logistics Department has made various flavors of combat rations for them in case of emergency.
Su Le took out a yellowed piece of dough, which had been prepared in the box when he gave him the handibi, and he glanced at the wrapping paper that had just been torn off.
"The fog is spicy!"
Isn't this just a compressed dry food? Su Le looked curiously at the half-fist-sized piece of noodles in his hand, can this thing be made into spicy flavor?
Imagine the compressed dry food in the previous life, can that thing be spicy and delicious?
He tried to take a bite, and it tasted surprisingly good, a hot pot smell spread in his mouth, and there were many meat particles mixed in the dough.
At this time, I don't care about any formalistic things, I have what to eat.
Su Le finished eating the noodles in his hand in two bites, and drank another bottle of pure water, only then did he feel more comfortable, but the fatigue in his head was not alleviated, and he needed to rest.
According to Su Le's usual accumulated experience, this is a side effect of excessive use of mental power, and it requires a good night's sleep and then specialized spiritual meditation to recover.
Although telekinesis is only a part of the spiritual power, it is the ability that consumes the most mental power, requiring a high concentration for a long time, and as the strength of the enemy increases, the mental power invested by Su Le if he wants to use his telekinesis to control them will also increase, if the enemy's strength exceeds the limit that Su Le can bear, then the telekinesis will instantly fail on the enemy!
After Su Le finished eating, he set off again, and continued to walk towards the pipe exit with no end in sight.
An hour later, he didn't know how far he had gone, he couldn't figure out why an underground ventilation duct could be made so tortuous, was it trying to suffocate the people below? There wasn't even a fork, just one pipe.
Although his physical strength was not overdrawn, the feeling of exhaustion in his head made him very desperate to find a place to rest.
"If only Shen Wen were here."
Su Le sighed and said to himself, Shen Wen's healing ability can relieve his mental exhaustion very well, even if it is not as fast as the recovery from meditation, it is still worth making him dream once.
And at this point, he finally came to an inflection point, from here the pipe became vertical again.
Su Le looked up, and there was still nothing to see in the black hole, as if it was a deep pit with no end.
But just as he was about to set off, he suddenly smelled a smell of blood, not very strong, but still caught by him!
He had been smelling of blood since he entered the pipe, but after walking so far, the smell of this place was exceptionally strong!
Su Le glanced down, the entire pipe was full of scattered corpses, only here were piles of piles, and it was like a corpse dumping point!
But they've all come here, and there's no way back, and this pipe hasn't branched off, unless he wants to face the human-faced blood spider in that square if he goes back now.
He was a little more vigilant in his heart, and casually summoned a skeleton on the ground, stepped on the skeleton and slowly lifted him into the air, the more he went up, the more humid the air became, it may be that he was about to reach the ground, thinking of this, Su Le not only sped up a little speed.
Suddenly, there was a grinding sound, very abrupt and harsh!
The sound was like someone was scratching at the wall with their fingernails! It's uncomfortable to listen to!
And when Su Le was uneasy, a drop of liquid suddenly dripped onto his face, he quickly reached out to touch it, and it was very slippery!
He hurriedly put his hand under the light to look, and his fingers were red!
Blood!
And at this moment, he turned his body, and the walls on both sides of the pipe were illuminated by the light of the tactical eyepiece, and countless traces of blood flowed from above! And at the same moment, another drop of blood dripped onto Su Le's face!
Su Le was shocked, he didn't use his mental power to explore the way because he wanted to save his mental power before.
He hurriedly released his spiritual power and groped upwards little by little. Trying to figure out something, his naked eye could now see no more than a hundred meters away in such a poorly visible environment.
The spiritual power quickly spread, but it didn't go too far, it was just a distance of more than a hundred meters, just outside of Su Le's sight, there was a behemoth entrenched here!
