Returning from the abyss

Chapter 908
The kitchen knife fell, nailing the protruding hand to the ground, and the bleeding effect was generated as expected, and the blood flowing from the wound on the hand showed a jewel-like blue.

"Camouflage, or parasitism? It doesn't matter." Lu Ning looked at the struggling person on the ground from above, no, this is definitely not a human being.

"What the hell are you?" Lu Ning squatted down, pulled out the kitchen knife, and threw it on the treadmill next to her. The blue blood adhered to it, and soon began to turn dark.

But no response.

"Isn't it okay if it's not flesh and blood?" Lu Ning took out a cloth to wipe the blood off the kitchen knife, and then threw the cloth away.

"How many things like you are there? Maybe they used to be people, but they are no longer people." Lu Ning evaluated this person in a calm and cold tone, "What changed this place? The blue blood just now, It is much more viscous than human blood when wiped."

She raised her head abruptly and looked up.

The flames had burned holes in the ceiling above the head, and the not-so-strong state could no longer support a person hiding on it, but what if it wasn't "one person"?

Lu Ning saw pairs of flashing blue dots.

"Hiding on it?" Lu Ning smiled, "Sure enough, after tearing the body into this shape, many things are much more convenient. But, with this shape, how do you plan to attack?"

What responded to her was a scream, and a creature above jumped at Lu Ning. The reason why it was called a creature was because it was already wrapped in a large number of fungi compared to the one that barely retained a human shape. Moldy eyeballs were barely distinguishable from mucus-soaked teeth.And Lu Ning also pointed at the ball the moment she heard the sound, and volleyed to chop it off.

"Only one came down." Lu Ning shook the blood again.Looking up, except for this impulsive one, everyone else is still shrunk up, looking down cautiously... Have you been beaten so hard that you dare not act rashly?

Lu Ning could recognize the ball that was chopped off by herself. Its shape was very similar to that of the Umbrella Mushroom City among the destructive organizations that she had seen in the rainy night before the siege, except that the one had a complete human body, and this one was There is only one ball left.

It seems that someone found their weakness, but although they used this weakness to cause devastating damage, they failed to kill them all.

what is the reason?Now this is what Lu Ning is more curious about. She hasn't noticed any discomfort at the moment, which means that Umbrella Mushroom City is not strong enough for airborne infection.She had no direct contact with blood, and it is not clear whether it is transmitted through blood contact.

But it's still a good opportunity, if Umbrella Mushroom City is seriously injured here, then she might as well take the opportunity to kill them all.

There was no clue here, so Lu Ning quietly withdrew and continued to search upstairs.The situation found on the middle floor is basically the same. There are some people with only part of the body hidden in the corners, and even this part does not necessarily need to include the head.Human heads don't seem to mean much to fungi.

Lu Ning chopped off a few that were still aggressive, and she didn't go up the other seriously injured ones, always feeling a little unsafe.

Just wandering around like this, she reached the top floor.This is probably the place where the chairman and the person in charge live. Compared to the downstairs, the door here is not even damaged, only a lot of scorched black marks are left.

Of course, this couldn't stop Lu Ning. After making sure that the electronic lock on the door had completely stopped working, she forcibly opened the door. There were not many rooms on the top floor, and there was almost nothing left in the first room, most of which were burned up. , some household metal still left a skeleton.Having said that, this fire is powerful enough, even metals can be melted, the temperature is not reached by ordinary fires.

When prying open the third door, Lu Ning immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth and nose. There was a lot of black dust in the room, and there were even some debris left in the room, which looked like the shattered mushroom cover.

Didn't it burn out?Lu Ning didn't go into the room, she seemed to have found a source of explosion?No, not entirely sure yet.She continued with her work, prying open the rooms on the entire floor.

Only that one room had the remains of the umbrella mushroom.The rest of the rooms were burned, but nothing like that.Other than that, no Umbrella Mushroom Man was found on the entire floor.

Yin He did not show any knowledge related to "fire" before. Although she can make a judgment, she may not be the one to do it. If she had to choose one, Lu Ning would prefer the Tianma studio she saw that day. people.

Although she didn't listen carefully to the people at Tianma Studio, she saw from a distance that the people at Tianma Studio could freely control thunder and lightning. As far as mantras are concerned, all kinds of knowledge that can affect nature are universal and can induce thunder. Most of them can also control the fire a little bit.But in this way, this room will not be lived by people from Tianma Studio, otherwise it will not fall to the point of burning down the hotel in the end.

She stabbed a piece of umbrella mushroom wreckage with a kitchen knife, turned and went downstairs, found a umbrella mushroom man hiding in the room, and stabbed the wreckage into the opponent's body.

The change happened almost instantly. A large number of small blue-green mushrooms began to emerge from the umbrella mushroom man. These disgusting fungi squeezed out a large amount of blue blood from its body, and the blood flowed out was not the same as before. Darkened, and instead grew fine fuzz, which began to spread out like a blanket.

This thing... looks like a creep, but it needs enough nutrients?It was probably because the energy accumulated in the body was sucked dry before, but now the wreckage pierced in brought more energy?

Lu Ning chopped the Umbrella Mushroom into pieces again with a few knives, went back to the first floor to check the blackened hotel map, and found the manager's office.

This place is not very big. Lu Ning vaguely remembered that some management personnel did not stay in the hotel for a long time. The base was newly opened, and the middle and high-level management were in a state of shortage. Many people had to manage several places.The hotel usually looks like a lobby manager.

And this didn't disappoint her - she found the safe.Although many things in the office were burned, the safe still persisted.Lu Ning spent some time breaking the lock of the safe, and then took out the saved documents from it.

Guest list.

After all, the guests this time are all specially invited. Compared with ordinary check-in, it is more like an event that covers the entire hotel. This list is an arrangement plan that has been prepared long ago. If there is any discrepancy, it will not be much worse.

The check-in arrangements for all the guests in this hotel were finally revealed to Lu Ning.

She flipped through the information very quickly, and soon discovered the omissions in this list.Except for the chairman and person in charge of the six investors who did not appear on the list, there are many people who should appear on the list that are actually not there.For example, among the three directors, only Bei Mu Da actually lives in the hotel, and the names of the other two are not on this list.

In addition, the star Lu Ning who was invited this time also remembered a lot, and at least three-tenths of them were not on the hotel's reception list.

Of course there are other hotels here at the base, but this is the only one that is open at the beginning, and excluding those who come later, if the earliest people are not arranged here... where will it be?Unfortunately, no information can be found here.

Lu Ning rummaged through the safe again, and found a list of personnel appointments and dismissals, and this time she saw the time on it—compared to the "reality" of her arrival, this time was later, in other words, What's here is really what's going on in the future.

In addition, there are some important documents, such as salary slips, activity budgets, etc., which are also locked in the safe. If you think that the documents placed here are relatively important documents, then these documents are at least important for the manager. These are all major matters that must be dealt with clearly.

Finally, there are two contracts, one is a food supply contract, which belongs to the category of the back kitchen, and the other is a maintenance service contract here, and the counterparty of the contract is Dawen Lock Industry.

After carefully reading all the documents, Lu Ning folded them up and stuffed them into her arms, then walked towards the door.

It is unrealistic for her to kill all the mushroom people in the hotel by herself. Although she is not infected, she dare not let the flesh and blood of the mushroom people touch her.For Lu Ning, there are many ways and choices to deal with the problem, and it is best to eradicate the disaster.

As she walked out of the hotel gate, the hotel that had been burned by flames disappeared immediately behind her, and the people around seemed to have completely ignored Lu Ning's sudden appearance at the door.It was only a few seconds later that her phone rang.

Lu Ning didn't answer, turned her head and walked into the hotel.Since the relationship between the two is just a relationship between the past and the future, then things over there can naturally be changed here.But who made it that he suddenly went to the hotel in the future?

Clap.

When walking to the back, Lu Ning heard the sound from the corridor wall.

She raised her hand and pressed the button on the watch, then walked on.A faint fishy smell has gradually spread along the corridor. Since Hai has launched an attack, it will continue.Her spirit must still be highly concentrated, while avoiding the knowledge pollution of being hit by the sea-this is quite difficult.

Lu Ning has not been able to do well in the training of controlling her own thinking. Her problem of overthinking has never changed. It is sometimes possible to stop thinking while thinking, and sometimes it is difficult to do.But Hai's attack just aimed at this weakness, which made Lu Ning feel a little annoyed.

The water stains spread along the wall, forming the shape of a picture, but Lu Ning passed through the corridor without looking sideways, making all this futile.She is concentrating, concentrating on what she wants to do, and avoiding being disturbed by external objects.

She came to the back kitchen, and now the meal time is over, there is no one here except for a few chefs on duty, and because there is nothing to do, a few chefs are playing cards around the lounge, Lu Ning just needs to be gentle. They sneaked into the kitchen without them noticing.

At the same time as she arrived in the kitchen, there was a clicking sound from above her head, and the lights dimmed suddenly, but at the same time, Shire had already quietly slipped in through the window.

Without Lu Ning's instruction at all, Charles had already "seen" the enemy's position. He took out a tennis ball from his pocket and threw it towards the ceiling. The golden root system pierced into the ceiling, and then the outer skin sloughed off, and a cloudy yellow eyeball twisted and looked down.

"The Gazer, send it back." Charles whispered.

The eyeballs twitched, and the liquid inside suddenly began to surge, and a large number of bubbles appeared like boiling water, and it became more and more turbid. After more than ten seconds, its root system began to wither, and a new layer of skin appeared on the surface. It grew out, wrapped the eyeball, fell down, and was caught by Charles.He picked it up and looked at it before his eyes, shook his head and stuffed it back into his pocket.

"You also specifically looked for targeted items?"

"We will always encounter these types of things. The nobles sell props that can deal with many different types of threats. As long as they can afford it, they will sell it."

In this regard, the nobles seem to be quite generous, but it is only incidental that Lu Ning asked Shire to deal with this matter, the important thing is another one.She walked to the ingredients warehouse, opened the door, and began to inspect the warehouse.

"Do you smell something moldy?" Lu Ning sniffed, maybe she should call Ana over, her nose probably could smell the smell directly.

"What are you looking for?"

"mushroom."

Charles frowned, a little puzzled by what Lu Ning meant, but he pointed to a box: "The dry goods are all in that box, if you're talking about fresh mushrooms...there probably aren't any here.

The fresh ingredients in the back kitchen are all thrown away on the same day, and now it is past ten o'clock in the evening, and the fresh ingredients have long been exhausted.

"It's not this kind, it's an even weirder mushroom." Lu Ning looked up at the top of her head, and then looked around - the ingredients library is actually not small, after all, there are a large number of people eating in the hotel every day, if you want to look through them one by one I'm afraid it's hard to find what you're looking for.

But isn't that thing afraid of fire?
Lu Ning asked for a lighter to light it up, and approached the boxes and pockets containing the ingredients one by one.

When she passed a brown bag of rice, the inside of the bag suddenly squirmed. Lu Ning and Shire immediately stabbed their weapons in. When the bag burst, some sapphire blue blood splashed out. Lu Ning immediately He dodged, but Charles didn't dodge, a shield suddenly appeared, blocking the blood.

Phase shift shield, Charr converted it into his own equipment so quickly?
"It's this mushroom?" Charles raised the dagger, and picked up a bulb with several blue mushrooms growing on it. It was still twisting. Lu Ning put the lighter on it, and burned the mushroom to ashes.

"Well, it looks like there is more than one. Look for it first, and kill if you find it." She glanced at the rice in the bag, and added, "Please also take some samples from this bag to see if there are any spores attached."
