Returning from the abyss

Chapter 320 Lu Lin
After spending about 10 minutes examining the stumps left on the ground, Lu Ning finally agreed to go upstairs.

The stairs in B3 are made of wood, and there will be a slight creaking sound when stepping on them. Except for Shang Wenxue who can keep silent, Lu Ning and Zhou Weiyuan will inevitably make some noises, but there are no monsters on the second floor, just this floor The glass of the building was broken, and many traces could be seen on the walls, doors and windows under the light, as if a war had just happened not long ago.

Lu Ning's finger stroked a sword mark on the wall. The mark went deep into the wall and stopped halfway through. It was obvious that the weapon was not sharp enough and the knife was fired. About one half of the body was splashed with blood. From the amount and shape of the bleeding, it was undoubtedly the splash of an artery. The person should be dead.

The next place is a few bullet holes, and the trajectory guessed by the naked eye is also close-up shooting. A shell casing fell from the base of the wall, which is a standard submachine gun bullet.

"Lu Ning?" Shang Wenxue called out when she saw that Lu Ning was in a state of ecstasy.

"The battle here is over." Lu Ning walked slowly. With those insignificant clues, she was able to restore everything that happened here. Hand-to-hand combat, even those who use firearms will inevitably be close.In this kind of chaos, there are few skills anymore, and some traces left after the most primitive fights have become the last epitaphs of those who were once alive.

"what?"

"Tourists will naturally investigate the three places nearby. Similar things may have happened to those we encountered on the A1 building. It's just that there is no common enemy here, so a multi-party scuffle broke out."

Lu Ning returned to the stairs. Sure enough, there were a lot of traces of fighting here.

"The place from the second floor to the third floor is undoubtedly the main battlefield. There are no sympathetic devices to disturb the space, so the battle will definitely continue to the third floor until 304..."

"Wait, there's a problem here." Zhou Weiyuan frowned, "Before discovering the real hidden secret of 304, tourists usually don't say to exclude other teams as the first choice, right? Or these people already know What's wrong with 304? Then this is a place that hasn't been explored?"

"Whether it was before or after, there must have been people in 304. The question now is, who else is there."

Lu Ning pointed to the corridor, her voice was a little low.

"Don't you believe that there will be an ending like this? We came a little late, and the early comers left? If there are any powerful weapons in 304, we are the ones who are in danger."

"Then we won't go up?" Zhou Weiyuan asked back.

"Of course not, we have to make some preparations first...Shang Wenxue, what's wrong with you?" Lu Ning suddenly found that there was something wrong with Shang Wenxue's expression next to her, and asked immediately.

But Shang Wenxue didn't seem to hear it at all, and walked upstairs step by step.Lu Ning noticed that the hand she had been holding the cane had changed from a stick to an inverted grip, and her body was slightly arched. Although her expression was still the usual smile, it made people smell an extremely dangerous breath .

"Hold her!"

Lu Ning instinctively felt that Shang Wenxue couldn't be allowed to go up like this, and immediately reached out with Zhou Weiyuan from left and right to grab Shang Wenxue, but there was a slight blur in front of her eyes, and Shang Wenxue just twisted and slipped out of the hands of the two of them, and then Quickly ran upstairs.

The two who missed it hurriedly chased after them, but when they climbed to the third floor, there was no one in the corridor.

"There won't be a space conversion point here?" Lu Ning immediately turned her head and asked.

"If there is, we will definitely be transferred in such a short time." Zhou Weiyuan understood Lu Ning's meaning, "The speed of space switching has not reached this point, which room Shang Wenxue should have entered, it will definitely not be too far away .”

In the room near the stairs, there are 306 and 317 on the left hand side, and 305 and 316 on the right hand side. Although Lu Ning and Zhou Weiyuan's speed is not as fast as Shang Wenxue's, the time difference for such a short journey is about three or four seconds, and it is impossible to go further.

After glancing at it, Lu Ning walked towards the door of 316.

"Ready to fight." After she said this, she swung her knife and cut the door open.

A film visible to the naked eye appeared in front of the eyes, blocking the door like a layer of frosted glass. The blade passed by, but did not cause any impact. The film had no substance.

Zhou Weiyuan was startled when he saw this thing, and at the same time, a voice rang in the ears of both of them: "Since we have companions, let's go together."

"Lu Ning, Zhou Weiyuan, you can come in."

The second voice sounded, it was Shang Wenxue.

Lu Ning reached out to touch the thin film of nothingness, gritted her teeth and rushed in.She didn't feel any discomfort in her body, but when she entered the classroom, the pungent smell of blood made her burst into tears.

Zhou Weiyuan, who came in behind, didn't feel too well. He stepped into a pool of blood that hadn't solidified, and almost fell. He stretched out his hand to support the wall to stabilize, but he happened to meet a dead head with four eyes.But this kind of horror can no longer scare Zhou Weiyuan, he stood up after a glance, and looked at the person sitting on the table at the front of the room.

Shang Wenxue held up her cane, and the light from the candles illuminated the entire room, and also showed the death scenes of nearly thirty corpses here.And the culprit of all this is not in a very good condition at the moment. She is wearing a leather armor and holding two thin swords in her hands, but the leather armor has already cracked, and two staggered wounds stretch from her shoulders to her ribs. Flowing out from the wound.

Although she was seriously injured, the woman's expression did not show any pain. She looked at Shang Wenxue with a straight face, and her eyes did not move to Lu Ning and Zhou Weiyuan.

"I really didn't expect to see you in such a mess." Shang Wenxue raised the corner of her mouth, "Look at this classroom, you are still that brutal guy."

"I don't think so. Although I was injured a little, there is no problem to solve you."

"Lu Lin, I just want to know what can hurt you, don't tell me it's this pile of dead things, I will kill you if I make a wrong answer."

"You will kill me no matter what, but I don't mind causing you some trouble..." Lu Lin flicked the rapier in her hand, "This is a refuge, you should feel it?"

Lu Ning raised her eyebrows: "You mean the temperature here?"

As soon as she entered the room, she noticed that the temperature in the room was suitable, and the blood from the corpse was only slightly coagulated. Generally speaking, it didn't look like a room in extremely cold weather outside.

"This is an interesting space device. It can open an independent space in a small room and connect it to any world." Lu Lin pointed to the door, "I don't know where this independent space is. I only know that someone has opened a refuge here... have you heard of this thing?"

"No." Lu Ning said.

"It seems that you haven't encountered any trouble yet, haha, very good." Lu Lin lowered her head slightly, then looked up at Shang Wenxue and said, "You really want to kill me? No matter what the reason is, I will definitely kill me today." It's just that the person who made the first move now makes you feel afraid."

"Don't change the subject, since you're here, you know what 304 has, right?"

"I don't know." Lu Lin sneered, "Everyone was pulled in by the unfolded shelter, and that guy planted the real killer... I think my life was intentionally spared, when I put I didn't realize this until after these people were slaughtered. Unfortunately, I don't have much chance to leave here."

"Then it looks like I'm going to send you on your way." Shang Wenxue took off the candle, raised her cane and pointed it at Lu Lin, "Your last words are really meaningless."

"For people like us, half-true lies are very easy to fabricate. How much did you believe in what you said just now? And your friends? The hunting game in this scene is far from over... Oh."

At this time, the surrounding corpses began to show signs of freezing and disappearing, and a smile appeared on Lu Lin's face.

"Kill her!" Lu Ning immediately raised her gun, but Lu Lin had already pierced her heart with the rapier.

"The time of the sanctuary is over, the mystery has not yet been solved, farewell."

As Lu Lin lost her vitality, her body also began to freeze and disappear quickly. The cold outside swept the room again, leaving Lu Ning with more mysteries.

At this moment, Shang Wenxue suddenly raised her head and laughed.

"Lu Lin, hahaha, do you think I will believe in such a lame trick? Giving up my life? It's so funny. We are tourists, tourists who are looking for a chance to survive, especially people like you who don't even have a heart. I will not choose to commit suicide!"

As the words fell, Shang Wenxue's expression returned to a calm smile, and the speed of changing her face was amazing.

"Let's go to 304."

Lu Ning and Zhou Weiyuan couldn't say anything at this time, after all, this was Shang Wenxue's private matter, even if both of them could conclude that Lu Lin was indeed dead, there was no way to say it at this time.

After walking out of the classroom, Shang Wenxue scraped off a few drops of wax dripping from the door with a cane. Lu Ning also saw this trace before judging that Shang Wenxue had entered this room.

304 is next to him, and the surrounding space has not changed any more, and he is convinced again that there is no sympathetic device here.Zhou Weiyuan studied the door and was roughly sure that there was no mechanism on the door, and then pushed the door open.

The indoor scene looks peaceful, but the atmosphere is a bit weird.The environment here is transformed from the former medical laboratory, and some things that have not been removed are left here and have not been changed: the infusion stand is placed by the door as a coat rack, and the two unfolded operating beds have become a sundry rack , white curtains and hanging racks are still preserved, and the atlases, props and messy reports used in psychological experiments are piled up together, which looks even more weird.

This is a laboratory that can be seen at a glance, there are no extra rooms, and the temperature is similar to that of the outside, without any abnormalities.

The three looked at each other and began to search indoors.

"Strange……"

Soon, Zhou Weiyuan muttered.

That's right, Lu Ning also felt very strange.Since it was so easy for the three of them to come in, it probably wouldn't be difficult for other people to come in, but there was no sign of any tampering in the whole room. The softer places left marks.Based on these, Lu Ning can easily judge that no one came in and turned over.

This is contrary to the previously known information [many people have come here to explore].

"Have you found anything?" Shang Wenxue poked the operating bed, and the metal bracket was still very strong, making a crisp crashing sound.

"No, this place is full of professional books, and some psychological measurement pictures. But these things are normal." Lu Ning picked up the books placed on a square table, but felt that the smell of dust was less.

It must not have been abandoned here for a long time, at least it is different from the cold environment outside.

Just when she was about to see if it was the same in other places, the surrounding light began to dim.

"The gradient has begun."

After the second experience, the three of them became calmer, chatted and came together, in a white candle held by Shang Wenxue, feeling the darkness gradually engulfing the surroundings completely.

"Zhou Weiyuan, what should this darkness be? It can change the world, so it should have some meaning?"

"Maybe, but if we want to align the logic of everything, Lu Ning's previous reminder will be in vain." Zhou Weiyuan made a joke.

"I don't know where the trap in this scene is now. To be honest, it makes me feel very uneasy." Lu Ning said, "We have seen the space-time trick, but it is not so fatal..."

"The fatal one is coming."

When Lu Ning heard Shang Wenxue say such a sentence, something cold was stuffed into her mouth. Listening to Zhou Weiyuan's voice next to her, it seemed the same.

"These four snakes!" Zhou Weiyuan called out.

"Don't swallow it, it's a lozenge, and it will last longer if you press it under the base of your tongue." Shang Wenxue said in a low voice, her voice was also a bit vague, apparently she also took a lozenge.

Lu Ning pressed the thing under her tongue, and took a closer look at the surrounding environment.

The severe cold had receded, replaced by a feeling of heat and humidity, like the weather before the dog days of rain. The clothes on the three of them were still autumn clothes, and some sweat had already begun to emerge from their foreheads.

But it wasn't just stuffy, Lu Ning smelled a smell of grass and trees drifting into the room, it was not a fresh smell, but more like the musty smell of rotten wood and rotting grass.As the gradual darkness gradually faded, the light green light shone in from the window, but it penetrated the fine shadows formed by some sparse vines.

A dim sun sinks westward in the green clouds, but the sun itself has four weird tentacles extending towards the sky. In the gradually dimming sky, it is obvious that the trail of the tentacles is slightly darker than the sunlight, reaching the other end horizon.

And this world has been occupied by plants.
