The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Chapter 218 The sudden appearance of the 4th level monster
After gunshots were heard in the hotel, the long-sounding alarms immediately alerted residents on all floors.

Since this is the venue for the Asian Counter-Spectre Research Conference, most of the people staying here are clerical staff from the Special Initiatives Department and various departments, who are responsible for setting up the venue.

In addition, there are a small number of anti-theft agents and soldiers responsible for vigilance and assistance.

Therefore, as soon as the alarm sounded, the detectives were the first to take action, contacting the hotel customer service and directing the residents on each floor to evacuate through the radio.

At the same time, the Dajing Special Policy Department 3, which was closest to the Ping An Hotel, immediately dispatched three teams of anti-ghost agents and a regiment of anti-ghost fighters to first block off the entire hotel block, and then immediately launched an evacuation operation after detecting the ghost space reaction.

With the experience of the last strange disaster in Dajing, the Dajing Special Policy Department now has rich experience in dealing with large-scale strange incidents. In less than half an hour, the hotel was blocked and the surrounding citizens were evacuated.

Since the strange space in the hotel spread quickly, only two anti-ghost teams from the three departments entered, and the rest were isolated outside by an invisible barrier.

Fortunately, the research and development team of the "Strange Energy Detector" has made great breakthroughs in the research of detecting strange energy and breaking through the barriers of strange space in the past six months. After moving the machine here, they began to try to "violently" break through the strange space.

It’s a pity that Shen Ge is trapped in a strange space at this time, otherwise, after seeing the "efforts" of the Dajing Special Policy Department, he would definitely understand that they have indeed wrongly blamed the headquarters this time.

The strange incident at the Ping An Hotel was not caused by the headquarters. Even the commanders of the three departments of the Dajing Special Policy Department were confused at this time.

After all, this year's Asian Anti-Ghost Research Conference started preparations after it was confirmed to be held in the Great Celestial Empire in the first half of the year. It has been safe and sound for the past six months. How come the Ping An Hotel, which served as the venue, was suddenly invaded by a ghost space today?

The key point is that the spread of this strange space is not like in the past, with the hotel as the center and spreading to all sides of the block, but it is based on the hotel and spreads from bottom to top.

In other words, the strange space seems to only cover the Ping An Hotel.

Such a strange way of spreading immediately confused the headquarters. Could it be that this strange space has become a spirit and can spread to a specific point?

At this time, on a certain floor of the hotel.

Two anti-ghost agents from the Special Measures Division 3 of Dajing City, with a whole team of anti-ghost fighters, a total of more than a dozen people, are advancing in an orderly manner deep into the building, looking for survivors who are lost on this floor.

At this moment, a sudden "thump thump" sound of heartbeat caught the attention of the team leader. He raised his hand and clenched his fist, signaling the team to stop and stand guard.

thump.

thump.

A strange heartbeat accompanied by heavy footsteps appeared at the end of the corridor. The team leader raised the strange energy detector in his hand and scanned it. He immediately saw that the strange energy intensity value on the display screen soared rapidly!
"Not good! A reaction above level 4!" The team leader lost his composure the moment he saw the numbers. The weirdness of level 4 was obviously beyond their ability to deal with.

But what’s strange is that the highest level of weirdness that has appeared in Dajing in the past few months is only level 3. The strength of the level 4 weirdness is so strong that you can see the black mist-like coverage of weirdness even without a weirdness detector.

Since the last strange disaster, each block in Dajing has installed the latest strange energy detectors. This kind of strange energy detector can detect not only the 4th level strangeness, but even the 4st and nd level strangeness. Therefore, this th level strangeness obviously appeared suddenly in the hotel.

Moreover, the strange transformations all follow certain rules, and it is almost impossible for the first level to jump to the third or fourth level. Therefore, it is not possible that the weak strange energy of the low-level strangeness has not been detected and lurks in the hotel and suddenly transforms to the fourth level.

The anti-ghost agents and soldiers of the three departments thought that this time they would at most have to deal with level one or two monsters, or at most level three monsters. If they couldn't defeat them, they could drag them for rescue. Who knew that they would directly run into a level four monster?
At this time, everyone had no time to think, the 4th level weirdness had already appeared in their faces, and it was too late to evacuate, so they all raised their weird firearms and weird equipment and prepared to fight.

Suddenly, there was a tremor in the air ahead. The leader of the evil team saw a flash before his eyes, and a white figure appeared before his eyes.

However, what appeared before everyone's eyes was not an indescribable weirdness, but a strange man who was nearly two meters tall and had only a layer of gray and shriveled skin covering his body.

The strange man was completely bald, without a single hair on his body. His face looked like a skull, and his hands reached his knees, with his palms bigger than his head.

His legs were as strong as an ox. With a quick run, he rushed from the end of the corridor to the front of the enemy team in just a few seconds.

Every time the weirdo stepped on the ground, his force was astonishingly great, cracking all the tiles on the floor and causing cracks to appear on the concrete floor underneath the tiles.

"Be careful..." Before the captain finished saying the word "be careful", the weirdo punched him in the face, then opened his bloody mouth like a skull and let out a deafening roar.

The roar even caused a huge vibration in the air. The team leader who had just activated the strange energy equipment and the two soldiers behind him had no time to react before their heads were smashed into blood plasma like watermelons!
The ghost warriors behind were stunned, but their instinctive experience made them pull the trigger without hesitation at this moment. In an instant, the flames from the ghost energy guns illuminated the dim corridor.

However, no one noticed that there was no white figure in the area covered by the bullets. When the soldiers came to their senses, the weirdo was already standing in the crowd...

"what--"

These ghost warriors thought they were going to die soon and screamed subconsciously, but they found that there was no pain or coldness as they expected.

"Where is the person?" Everyone looked around, but no one saw the strange man. The corridor was eerily quiet, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

But soon everyone noticed the headless bodies of the team leader and two companions in front of them, which was obviously reminding them that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.

Where is the weirdo?
Just let them go like that?

Before these ghost warriors could breathe a sigh of relief, several of them suddenly felt a strong discomfort in their stomachs, just like the feeling of wanting to vomit but being unable to after a hangover.

"vomit."

"vomit!"

Several soldiers began to retch at the same time. This phenomenon quickly swept through the entire team like an infectious disease, and soon all the surviving soldiers began to retch.

Only people who have experienced a hangover can understand how painful it is to vomit for a long time without coming out anything and feel a burning sensation in the stomach. Therefore, several people could not help but put their hands on their throats, trying to induce vomiting.

The entire corridor was filled with disgusting retching sounds, and soon someone actually "vomited" out. However, what he vomited out was not the contents of his stomach, but a pale hand.

The soldiers' mouths were completely stretched open by this hand, becoming "skull mouths" similar to the monster's just now, and then they were clamped on the forehead by the hand that stretched out from the mouth.

The "controlled" soldiers immediately stood still, and after a few seconds they became like the parasites, swaying their bodies as they walked towards the end of the corridor.

…………

In the room, Shen Ge tried to use the strange domain to cover himself and Hu Tinglan, and then passed through the invisible barrier blocking the door and went to the corridor.

The corridor was very quiet, almost exactly as it was when he arrived.

But Shen Ge had a strong memory, and he clearly noticed that the opening and closing of several doors were different from when he first came.

Or rather, the opposite.

When I came, the doors in the corridor that were open were now closed, and the doors that were closed were now open, giving people a feeling of the opposite world in the mirror.

Shen Ge walked to one of the doors that was originally closed but now open, stood at the door, raised his hand, turned on the flashlight and scanned inside. It was an empty room with no signs of anyone being there.

"Follow me." Shen Ge said to Hu Tinglan, and then walked towards the elevator.

When passing by the emergency exit, Shen Ge subconsciously reached out and pushed the door. Hu Tinglan thought he was going in, but Shen Ge closed the door and stepped back.

As a cadre of the headquarters logistics team, Hu Tinglan naturally knew what kind of person Shen Ge was. His presence undoubtedly gave her a lot of confidence.

As a "professional" anti-weirdness detective, Shen Ge was naturally more experienced in dealing with strange things than her, a clerk. So Hu Tinglan was very tactful and followed him quietly, without asking questions about Shen Ge's various strange behaviors like a curious baby.

After the two arrived at the stairwell, Shen Ge naturally pressed the down button of the elevator, as if they were not in a strange space at the moment, but were preparing to take the elevator to leave the hotel as usual.

"Agent Shen, please wait a minute!" Although Hu Tinglan was unwilling to interfere with Shen Ge's decision, she almost subconsciously stopped Shen Ge who was about to enter the elevator.

Shen Ge turned around and looked at Hu Tinglan in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"

"This...are we going to take the elevator?" Hu Tinglan asked tentatively with a subtle expression.

"18th floor, are you planning to go down?" Shen Ge had thought about going down the stairs, but when he came over, he found that there was an invisible barrier blocking the stairwell.

According to the results of the dual detection feedback from the system and Xiaoqi, this place is like a Rubik's Cube world separated by countless invisible barriers, and it seems that each layer is divided into many grids.

Shen Ge chose to take the elevator. First, it was strange that the elevator was still operating normally in the area covered by the strange space. He wanted to see where this strange elevator would lead to. Second, since the surrounding area was divided into countless blocks, this bizarre experience naturally had to be explored one by one.

"Well... Detective Shen, I'm not questioning your decision, but you see those horror movies, and the 'Anti-Spooky Guidelines' issued by our Special Initiatives Department. From all aspects, taking the elevator is not a good choice at this time. 18 floors of stairs... I can walk!" Hu Tinglan was afraid that if she angered Shen Ge, he would leave her here, so she spoke very carefully.

"This place is more complicated than you think. According to my judgment, it should be an overlapping strange space. The position of the stairwell detected the reaction of another strange space, so I think instead of jumping from one space to another, it is better to explore step by step to prevent the occurrence of space distortion."

"When I went to Korea a few months ago, a serious catastrophe occurred in Seoul. The space was distorted so that each block was pieced together like a Rubik's Cube. The feeling now is very similar to that time. I suspect that each floor of this hotel has also been messed up and pieced together."

"That is to say, it is very likely that we stepped into the stairwell, and just as we went down one step, we 'fell' from the 18th floor to the 50th floor, and then fell from the 50th floor to the bottom floor... In this case, I still have a chance of survival. As for you, have you tried jumping from the 50th floor?"

"And don't you think it's weird that the elevator in the strange space can still operate normally?" Shen Ge asked back.

Although Hu Tinglan was very grateful to Shen Ge for patiently explaining to her the possible "structure" of multiple strange spaces, she somewhat overestimated her.

Not to mention the 50th floor, even if she jumped from the 5th floor, she might be dead.

However, Shen Ge was right about one thing. The elevator in the strange space was still running, which was a very strange thing in itself.

According to the general way of dealing with strange agents, in this case, they would definitely study why the elevator is not affected by the strange space, so Shen Ge's decision was correct, it was just more direct... using himself as material to verify it.

Ding--

At this time, the sound of the elevator arriving at this floor brought Hu Tinglan back to her senses, and Shen Ge stepped into the elevator without any hesitation.

The only way to leave the strange space has already gone in, what can Hu Tinglan do? No matter how desperate she is, she can only follow him into the elevator.

After Shen Ge pressed the switch for the first floor, the elevator door slowly closed. Hu Tinglan was so scared that she subconsciously moved closer to Shen Ge. If the situation really happened as Shen Ge described, where the 1th floor suddenly "fell" to the 18th floor and began to fall freely, then being closer would make it easier for her to hold onto his thighs.

Well, literally "hug the thigh".

What was strange was that after the elevator door was completely closed, Shen Ge and Hu Tinglan could both feel the elevator moving, but the indicator light on the elevator still showed 18, without any change.

Nourishing.

zizi.

At this time, the lights in the elevator flickered and suddenly went out. Hu Tinglan screamed and wanted to hug Shen Ge's arm, but thinking that holding the other's hand might affect the other's actions, she immediately changed her mind and grabbed Shen Ge's clothes.

Boom!
As the lights in the elevator went out, the elevator stopped immediately and the door was tightly closed with no sound of opening.

Shen Ge took a step forward and stretched out his hand to pry open the elevator door. The lower half outside was a wall, and the upper half looked like a "corridor". It was obvious that the elevator had stopped before it had completely reached a certain floor.

"I, we, should we go out?" Hu Tinglan's voice was trembling as she asked.

"Quiet." Shen Ge made a gesture to silence, then swept the flashlight upwards, and then Hu Tinglan saw a scene that she would never forget -

Several skinned, bloody corpses were "hanging" on the ceiling. It would not be appropriate to say "hanging" because the heads of these corpses were missing. The weird flesh above the neck looked like bloody carnivorous plants, stuck to the ceiling with "suction cups".

What was even more terrifying was that these "corpses" seemed to sense the light from Shen Ge's flashlight, loosened their suction cups, fell off the roof, and crawled towards the elevator.
