Chapter 52: A Record of Fear

Investigation Bureau VII, Analysis Department.

At this moment, on the big screen, Flora, holding the railing in one hand and a flashlight in the other, is standing in the middle of the steps.

She didn't move forward, she just froze in place.

Monitoring the data below shows that Flora is two hundred meters underground, which is the limit of what she can reach.

At some point, a large number of unrelated people gathered in the observation room, and as long as the researchers in the analysis department had nothing to do, they all came here to watch the two newcomers challenge the fear staircase.

Seeing that Flora had reached a depth of two hundred meters, everyone was amazed.

"It's amazing, I've never seen a person sink so fast, and he can reach a depth of two hundred meters, which is a bit unscientific."

"And she's still deadlocked, she didn't turn around and ran."

"Fang Ling, have you ever seen such a situation before?" One of them asked.

"It's a really special example, I've never seen it." Fang Ling said.

The sinking speed is fast, but the person who is very deep, Fang Ling has seen it, but the sinking speed is so fast, the depth is so deep, and the person who can still stalemate with the monster in the end, he has never even heard of it.

People who walk in the staircase of fear, once they reach the limit of their fear, see the so-called "monsters".

This monster never appears in the surveillance footage, and is forever hidden in the dark, where no one can see it except those who have reached the limit of fear.

And 99% of people who see monsters will be so frightened that they will turn around and run.

The urge to flee as quickly as possible cannot be overcome by reason and courage, but from the deepest depths of the heart, intense primal fear.

Zhang Tianxiao glanced at Sylvie obliquely, and said quietly: "You ran away at that time, right?" ”

"Didn't you run away too?" Sylvie replied.

Fang Ling: "Seeing the monster turn around and run, it proves that you have reached the real limit, but if you can stalemate with the monster, it means that it is possible to further increase the limit of fear in the future, it seems that Flora has a lot of potential." ”

"You mean, our special attack department has picked up a treasure?"

"That's it! But...... Compared to him, Flora's performance can only be described as normal. Fang Ling pointed to Su Ming on the screen and said.

Sylvie looked at the scene where Su Ming was being photographed.

In the picture, Su Ming is continuing to walk down slowly, and his speed is very stable.

The depth he was at now was fifty meters underground, and it was not normal for him to have only reached such a small depth after such a long time, and the descent was too slow, it was ridiculously slow.

Originally, the slow sinking speed was a good thing, which meant that he could maintain a high level of combat power for a long time when facing demons.

But Su Ming's sinking speed was so slow that Sylvie didn't feel happy, but felt ...... It's weird!

"No, I can't help it, I'll have to call up Nightstar and Minister Sylvie to compare it with him." Fang Ling said as he controlled the computer and began to search for the test records of Night Star and Sylvie.

"Nightstar, that boy...... It's a shame. ”

Hearing Nightstar's name, a researcher behind him sighed.

"If he hadn't been so impulsive, he would have been the trump card of seven games by now."

"I've never seen anyone like him in my life, and when he's there, it's annoying, and when he's gone, I miss him."

The others chimed in, and Sylvie frowned and remained silent, her eyes darkening a little.

"That's it! Got it! ”

Fang Ling separated a small blank area on the large screen to display the data of the night star.

"Tut-tut, no matter how many times I watch it, I think it's outrageous."

"yes, it's like cheating."

The data above shows that the ultimate depth of the Night Star is 330 meters, and it took him almost 18 hours to reach this depth, with an average of 18 meters per hour.

The Seventh Bureau of Investigation has only a ten-year history on Dongyang Island, and the project of the Couple's Secret House was only put into testing seven years ago, so there is only seven years of data.

Because the Staircase of Dread is a very interesting anomaly, the people in the analysis department combined all the data and created two lists, one for speed and one for depth.

Of the seven years of testing, Sylvie had the slowest average sinking rate, averaging just 10 meters per hour.

And the deepest extreme depth is the Night Star, reaching an astonishing 330 meters, far surpassing the second-place Sylvie by 70 meters!

Both of Nightstar's stats are amazing, his depth is the deepest in the entire Bureau of Investigation, and the sinking speed is slow enough to be at the top of the sinking list.

Because of this, every time a newcomer who thinks highly of himself joins the Investigation Bureau, the Analysis Department will take out the data of the Night Star to suppress them, basically in front of the Night Star, any genius will be overshadowed.

But this time, the situation is a bit peculiar.

So far, Su Ming and Flora have been in for eight hours, and now Flora has reached the bottom, she has sunk an average of 25 meters per hour, and the ultimate depth is 200 meters, which is a very good result.

And Su Ming's current depth is only 50 meters.

In other words, he had sunk almost only 6.25 meters per hour before.

"Did you see that? Perhaps Minister Sylvie's first place will be lost. Fang Ling joked.

Sylvie shrugged, "It wouldn't be bad if it did, I wish he could surpass me." However, it is too early to draw conclusions, because the speed of sinking has always been getting faster and faster, and the slow sinking speed at first does not mean anything. ”

Fang Ling smiled, his fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard, integrating Su Ming's current data and making a line chart.

"This is Su Ming's rate change, see for yourself."

The crowd of onlookers let out a burst of amazement, and everyone couldn't help but lean in to look at this incredible line chart.

The line on this line chart showed a wave-like upward trend, and then after reaching a peak, it fell sharply, and finally fell back to the level of 2.5 meters per hour, which means that Su Ming's sinking speed accelerated and then strangely fell back to an extremely low speed.

"Oh my god, what's going on!!" One of the researchers gasped.

He was the one who specialized in data collation, and he was also responsible for storing the data on the Staircase of Dread, which had never happened before in his memory.

The sinking speed, the overall trend has always been faster and faster, and it was the first time he had seen a situation like Su Ming.

Sylvie frowned, her face suspicious.

Fang Ling stared at the screen and explained slowly: "The increase in his sinking speed was mainly during the period of communication with Flora, but after Flora disappeared, his sinking speed immediately returned to the normal level when he first entered the stairs.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be the first since the Open Beta...... Right? ”
