Chapter 192 Arriving at L1
Recalling the escape door he had encountered before, Shen Fei compared the description in this floor guide and guessed that the one leading there should be the L1 floor.

Now that he had the guide in his hand, knowing that he would not be able to encounter other creatures on the L0 floor, Shen Fei read the other two guides while walking. Of course, he didn't fully believe it, and he still maintained a certain degree of vigilance.

Although the L0 floor will not be life-threatening, it will not be able to obtain points. The end of 0 points is still death, so the most urgent task is to find another passage to the L1 floor.

According to this guide, it is not difficult, at least easier than finding a room in Manila.

According to the guide, usually a wanderer who has just arrived at Battlefield 4 can find a way to L1 or L2 before he becomes dehydrated or starves to death.

Shen Fei recalled that he came across a passage in more than four hours, which was indeed consistent with the description.

But the Manila room requires a homeless person who can only be encountered after walking far enough in any direction. During this period, a certain amount of food and water are needed to survive.

Shen Fei's forward speed was equivalent to that of an ordinary person running, even so, he kept running for at least sixteen hours.

Shen Fei kept reading and memorizing the three guides, the most detailed list of essential items for homeless people with the most pages of information.

It covers everything from clothing and food to tools to weapons and gives examples of where these items are suitable.

Shen Fei ignored this part, because the item list was based on ordinary people, such as: first aid kit, clock or timer, sleeping bag, spare clothes, night vision device with light blocker, etc.

Shen Fei removed these useless parts, and selected the more important parts to him, such as flashlights, water containers, etc. These things would come in handy in some situations.

However, the "entity" part that Shen Fei is most concerned about is the least and simplest part introduced, so few "entities" only have a number and name, and the danger rating of these "entities" is generally not high.

This also shows that the organization that left this information may not be very powerful, and its background is not deep enough. Of course, it may also be that this organization is unwilling to give too detailed information. There is even a possibility that this information may have been placed in the Manila room a long time ago. Anyway, the L0 floor has no traces of years of erosion.

Countdown 9 days 07:02:01
Shen Fei found another red door, the material of which was unknown, and the word "Exit" printed in green on the door.

He didn't go forward happily, he still kept his style, took off the spear and pushed the door open, and made observations first.

The situation behind the door was the same as the current L0 environment, with yellowed wallpaper, damp carpet, and countless fluorescent lights.

It was like a fake door, but Shen Fei intuitively told him that it was not a good choice to go through this door, and as he got closer to this door, the feeling of something bad became stronger.

And what confirmed Shen Fei's intuition was the timely prompt from the system:
[Note: It is detected that the accumulated points of the player "A Fei" is less than or equal to 10 points, entering the sub-level will result in the failure of the mission, please choose carefully]

Now that the system has identified it as a sub-layer, Shen Fei will naturally not seek his own death, he immediately let go of the spear, let the red door close, and continued on the uncertain road ahead.

Countdown 9 days 05:53:28
Shen Fei used his spear to push open the third door that he had encountered within more than an hour. The first two were fake doors, and behind the door was the damn L0 floor.

Fortunately, hard work paid off, looking at the waterlogged warehouse floor behind the door, it was basically confirmed that it was the L1 floor. Without hesitation, Shen Fei went straight through the passage and walked in.

The moment he entered the L1 floor, the door he came in just disappeared out of thin air. Shen Fei turned his head and looked, only the cold concrete wall remained.

【Current floor: L1】

The system popped up prompts in due course. Unlike L0, there was no brief description of the floor this time, but Shen Fei had already memorized the description of the L1 floor in the data.

[L1: Reaching this floor should be your next goal.

Our main base is located here, and it's one of the safest locations for you.

The L1 floor is a huge warehouse with concrete floors and walls, exposed steel, dim fluorescent lights placed on the walls, and low-hanging fog with no apparent source.

The mist often coalesces into condensation, which forms puddles on the floor at inconsistencies.

Unlike L0, this layer has a steady supply of water and electricity, allowing homeless people to live indefinitely as long as proper precautions are taken.

It's wider than you can imagine, with countless stairs, elevators, separate rooms and corridors. ]
On the L0 floor, after Shen Fei found out that there was a non-Euclidean space, he didn't intend to let out the chatter anymore, so as not to get separated.

According to the data, starting from the L1 floor, there may be "entity" attacks, so for the sake of Ji Gu's safety, Shen Fei will no longer be able to get its help in this mission.

According to the data, the "entity" refers to the protozoa of the No. 4 battlefield.

Of course, this is the description of the organization that released the data, and it does not rule out the possibility that these creatures are also alien species, but the possibility that they settled here earlier than that organization.

The original text says this:
[It covers a wide variety of creatures: from friendly aborigines with human-like intelligence to mindless beasts to beings with motives and abilities beyond our comprehension.

Each entity has unique behaviors, habitats, and physiological needs, as recorded by eyewitnesses in our database.

But when you have questions about these records, for your safety and theirs, the best rule of thumb for interacting with entities is to leave them alone.

There may be conflicting claims in the database, and trusting your instincts is the best way to survive.

Outside of the worldview, an entity can be simply defined as "any living thing that is not a person". ]
It can also be seen from this description that the source organization of the data should be a human organization. Of course, Shen Fei also knows that humans in many planes call themselves humans, but the species are not the same.

Shen Fei walked in the empty warehouse terrain, walking as lightly as possible. Here, he may encounter enemies at any time, and it is necessary to abide by the law of the dark jungle.

"Da da da……"

A sound of footsteps came from a distance along with the sound of conversation, and Shen Fei quickly dodged behind a pillar to hide, exposing half of his head to observe the direction of the sound.

It was a corner, and he couldn't see the figure, so he could only judge from the sound of the conversation that the other party was approaching here.

Shen Fei pricked up his ears and carefully discerned their conversation.
