Returning from the abyss

Chapter 359 The Garden
Maoyou shouted excitedly, and seemed to have forgotten what he said before to keep his voice down.Lu Ning walked over, and she had already discovered that the pillar was actually an elevator, and she didn't know what Maoyou was excited about.

But when he came to him, Lu Ning saw it.

Not far behind the elevator pillar, where the front view will definitely be blocked, is another mission machine, and it is different from Lu Ning's previous one in that it has a purple label on it, with three stars beside it.

"Three-star mission! Little Lu!" Maoyou turned his head excitedly, but saw Lu Ning's cold face.

"Are you sure we can touch the three-star mission now?"

Maoyou was at a loss for words.

"Gao Xing must be accompanied by high danger. I dare not touch Gao Xing's mission when I have nothing. If you want to try, I will ignore it, but don't drag me along."

After speaking, Lu Ning walked towards the pillar.

The distribution of mission points is denser than expected, but she is still in the wait-and-see stage, and she is not ready to try difficult missions yet.

The overall view of this garden can be seen clearly, and it is also an indoor garden, but there are no windows or vents on the wall until now, so we can only infer that it is a fully enclosed structure now.

That being the case, this elevator may be critical.

Lu Ning reached out and groped on the wall around the door, and soon touched a sensor board, and a running pattern lit up above the door.The elevator runs without any sound at all, even when the door is opened, it is silent, and inside is an elevator room that can accommodate about 16 people to enter together.

"Oh, what is this?" Maoyou exclaimed when he saw the elevator, and then walked inside to look at the situation inside.Lu Ning followed into the elevator and looked at the control button first.

There are a total of four buttons, rhombus, from bottom to top are leaf, sun, fruit and snowflake.The emergency button that the general elevator will have does not exist.On the top of the button, there are "Instructions for Use" written in various words.

【usage notice:
This elevator provides movement within the Four Seasons Garden, and the elevator is the only tool that can switch between different gardens.After the elevator door is closed, press the button of the garden you want to go to, and you will be sent to the elevator exit of the garden.

Note: After the elevator is used, it must wait for 5 minutes before it can be used again. 】

The door closed silently, Maoyou yelled in panic, Lu Ning reached out and pressed the button of the fruit, and then waited quietly while paying attention to Maoyou's movements.

Not long after, the door opened again. Lu Ning was a little startled. She planned to judge the floor based on the gravity change she felt, but she didn't feel any movement at all?
"The door, the door opened, I was shocked... Oh! What is this place?"

There is an orchard in front of me, with a thin layer of fallen leaves accumulated on the ground, and there are many fruit trees around it, which are full of fruits.However, if you ignore this view, you can find that the shape of the room here is exactly the same as that seen in the spring garden before, and there are even two circular rooms on the left and right sides of the elevator.

And another thing that can confirm the change is the mission machine. The distribution density of this thing is indeed higher than Lu Ning thought, because when the elevator opened, she saw a machine facing the elevator door, which was also purple. Samsung mission.

But Maoyou was very happy when he saw it.

"Xiao Lu! Look, another three-star! Does it mean that the difficulty is not high if there are so many? I don't think there is any need to be so afraid."

"How did you survive on the 'street' with your vigilance?" Lu Ning still looked cold, "By the way, the rules there are a little stricter, and it really saved your life."

"If you want to live a good life, you have to be a little adventurous." Maoyou ran over excitedly, and scanned the mission machine with his instrument.

There was a soft sound, but it was slightly different from the receiving sound that Lu Ning heard before.

"Huh? Locked? Is this machine already in use?"

The moment Lu Ning heard these words, her footsteps paused.

"No! Run!"

She rushed directly to Maoyou, took his arm and ran into the corridor outside the orchard. At the same time, there was a voice of scolding behind her. Lu Ning glanced sideways and saw two figures The tall men ran out from behind each carrying a dead branch that had been broken off from a tree.

The exits of the rooms on both sides are in opposite positions to the elevator doors. Hiding in those two rooms, listening to the movement outside and ambush at any time is the most basic tactic. Only then there was a flaw.

This building area is not small, and 150 seven people are scattered in it, and it is almost impossible to see each other. If you want to attack someone, you must have to do some planning.

Flying through the current situation in my mind, Lu Ning and Maoyou have already run for a long time in the corridor. There are several pentagonal houses extending out from a wall in this corridor, just like a warehouse. The shape was average, the wall blocked the line of sight, and the two people behind seemed afraid to catch up.

Lu Ning stopped, panting slightly, and looked in front of her.

There are four pentagonal houses on the corridor on the left hand side. The door cannot be seen from the outside, and it should be designed on the inner wall.The only one extending from the right-hand side is the door on both outermost sides.Under the current situation, Lu Ning was unwilling to run into a room with only one entrance and exit, so she approached a door on the right hand side, opened it and took a look inside.

——This is not a room.

"Yes, did you find anything?" Maoyou asked out of breath.

"Behind this is a corridor with two forks, no, it should be four?"

Lu Ning was also a little surprised. She walked to the door and looked around. There was a long corridor in front of her. At a distance of about 30 meters, the left and right roads separated at a narrow angle. The right side was along the current road. Direction straight ahead.But this is only a branch of the main road. From here, it is obvious that there is a narrow passage more than ten meters on the right, and almost on the left, there is a glass door, and another courtyard full of red leaves can be seen behind the door. , and a courtyard wall of blue bricks and red tiles that doesn't match the cold metal style in the corridor.

While Lu Ning was carefully observing the situation of each road, he suddenly saw a dark machine at the corner on the left side of the two main roads, which seemed to be another mission machine.

At the same time, footsteps were heard on the road on the right.

Lu Ning and Mao You raised their vigilance at the same time. The two people they met just now proved that there are indeed malicious people here, and the footsteps this time did not sound like a single person.

Walking out of the corner over there is a pair of young men and women, both holding a table knife in their hands, the kind used to cut butter, not very sharp, but compared to the unarmed Lu Ning and Mao You Anyway, it's an extra weapon.

The two of them were also startled when they saw someone in the corridor, and they all took a defensive posture. They relaxed a little when they found a short man and a young girl who looked malnourished.

"Are you also brought here by someone?"

Maoyou asked.

The man opposite replied: "Our brothers and sisters were framed by someone. Where did you come from?"

"Oh." Maoyou's voice immediately became serious again, "We are from the 'street', but it doesn't matter where this ghost place comes from, right? Just now we met two people who wanted to attack us, It took a lot of effort to escape!"

Did you have the nerve to say that you put in a lot of effort for those few steps you ran?Lu Ning glanced at Maoyou, she would not say such words at this time.

"Street? That place is also quite messy."

"I can't refute it. But I'm just doing some petty theft. You can see that I'm definitely harmless. Compared with you, we are more worried about you." Maoyou said.

"We are residents of the 'City Wall', my name is Libei Yangmu, and this is my younger sister, Libei Fengdai."

"A little... I've heard of it, after all, the news about the city wall usually doesn't reach the streets." Maoyou said with a smile, "My name is Maoyou, a little-known little person, this is Xiaolu, I met here My friend, you are very vigilant and saved my life!"

"We just took some weapons for self-defense. If you don't have any abnormal behavior, we won't attack others casually."

"...you have a mission." Lu Ning suddenly said.

Li Beiyangmu was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he had already admitted Lu Ning's words at this moment.

"Don't worry, we also have missions, so we can probably guess one or two. You have a table knife in your hand, which means that you have found a supply point, that is, a place to get water and food, and you can get weapons safely from there. There are no traces of fighting on the clothes, which shows that the situation at the supply point is relatively safe. Now that two people can be driven out of a safe place to the corridor, and their vigilance is so obvious, it should be that there is a task in hand, and it must be completed within a time limit. Is that right?"

"You too?" Li Beiyang asked immediately,

"Well, how about this, you tell me the location of the supply point, and I tell you how to go to other gardens, what is the exchange?"

"Okay." Li Beiyangmu was also straightforward, and immediately agreed.

"Then just in case, I will tell your sister the method, and you will tell my companion the location, and we will exchange at the same time."

Immediately, Lu Ning said the exchange method that had been thought of.Libei Yangmu is also very satisfied with this method of improving safety.Lu Ning and Maoyou walked over and stood on both sides, and with a gesture, both of them whispered the information they knew.

After the transaction was over, Lu Ning immediately pulled Maoyou aside, and Li Beiyangmu also knew the meaning of her action. He glanced at his sister, said "this transaction is very good", and hurriedly led people to Lu Ning The direction went by.

"Did you tell her there was an ambush there?"

"I told them how to use the elevator, and how to be careful of people using it. If it doesn't raise awareness, it won't save you. What did you hear?"

"It's not far, it's just in front, walk along the corridor, there is a courtyard on the other side, and there is a large meeting room in the courtyard, and the supply point is there." Maoyou said happily.

"Well, let's go this way first." Lu Ning pointed to the left.

"Huh? They didn't come from the right side..."

"There is a task machine here, I want to test it."

Lu Ning didn't ask Maoyou's opinion, but went straight to the left passage.The thing at the corner turned out to be another mission machine, and it was a simple one-star mission machine.

She swiped the instrument on her arm, and a line of words appeared on the screen of the machine - there is a task in progress.

"In this case, at least the mission of the same level cannot be received repeatedly, Maoyou, you have come to accept this mission."

"okay."

Maoyou quickly scanned, and this time the task appeared normally on the screen:

[Task Level [-]: Get a weapon from any arsenal before the first crisis comes. 】

"Oh! I'm looking for a weapon arsenal!"

"There are twelve small arms arsenals, but it must be more difficult to find than the supply point. We need to replenish some water and food first. I'm already feeling hungry."

"But isn't it important to arm yourself?"

"The supply point will become an important competition in the later stage, and we may not have many good opportunities to receive supplies from now on." Lu Ning just said this, and continued to walk along the road.

Next, as she guessed, the end of the road on this side actually merged with the right side, but it just turned a corner. The corridors on both sides are basically center-symmetrical, which is actually a bit strange.

Ignoring the aesthetics, but considering the practicality alone, the function of these two branched corridors is no different from that of a straight corridor, and because of the turning, there is no reason to increase the walking distance, and there is no special room door in the turning part. .

Lu Ning glanced back at the corridor, and recorded the situation in her notes.

Since it is symmetrical, there is also a glass door on the right-hand side of the corridor here, and a narrow passage on the left.

Behind the glass door is the courtyard that Libei Yangmu said.It is autumn here, and the body temperature is slightly lower than that in the Spring Garden before. The location of the large conference room is very obvious. It is already as large as a building inside a building. The circular wall surrounds the outside. Walk in the door , you can see the pentagonal structural layout extending from the inner circle, which can be said to be two layers inside and outside.Even this meeting room is decorated with fallen leaves and autumn scenery. After walking half a circle, you can see the door leading to the interior.

At the same time, the sound of people talking can also be heard.

"I didn't want to come in voluntarily, damn it, didn't I just owe a sum of money?"

"I miss Mom and Dad..."

"A sin..."

The voices of men, women and children were mixed, and it seemed that there were quite a few people.Lu Ning and Mao You opened the door together, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room.

Looking up, Lu Ning remembered the characteristics of the fifteen people here.
