Even though Yan Rong's tone was joking, no one could laugh at this moment. The pressure brought by the promotion is huge. Everyone can notice that in the pouring rain outside, the more distant sky is filled with white water vapor, as if a high wall has enclosed the entire school in an isolated within space.
This time the scene is the size of a school.
Escape from this school.
The last item of the main plot is enough for people to understand what kind of dangers there are in the campus in this different space, and these dangers are still gathering momentum now. The group of people carefully started walking downstairs along the stairs at the end of the corridor. No space switching occurred along the way, but there was no sound of people around.
"Generally speaking... there must be a lot of tourists who have advanced, right?" Cang Su whispered, "No one can be seen... There must be non-tourists in this scene. Where did these people go? Here. How much space does it overlap..."
"Don't put so much pressure on yourself. The silence here is already suffocating." Yan Rong walked at the front with his hands in his pockets. When he passed a cleaning supplies cabinet in the middle of the stairs, his eyes suddenly lit up and he kicked his feet. Kick open the cabinet door, take out the mop and broom from inside, break off the head, leaving several metal sticks about one meter long. She weighed it in her hand and threw one to the people behind her with satisfaction - except for Ning Yeyi, who also brought a computer, everyone took one for self-defense.
"But why do we need this..." Qin Yulou raised the stick, feeling that this thing was basically of no use.
"I've already smelled something dangerous. Don't you notice it at all?" Yan Rong held the stick in his hand like a short gun, pointing the tip directly at the bottom of the stairs. This is the junction of the second floor and the first floor. Due to the gloomy rainy day outside, the room is almost dark, but in the darkness, something darker is still creeping quietly.
"What it is!"
Seeing the creeping shadow, almost everyone shuddered. It seemed to be fear itself, and everyone could not resist the feeling of escape from the bottom of their hearts.
But after all, we are all tourists, and we can still suppress the fear that has not yet exploded.
Only Yan Rong seemed unaffected. She held the stick and walked down the steps step by step. As she got closer and closer to the shadow, the shadow struggled harder and harder.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning flashed through the heavy rain outside, illuminating the entire corridor on the first floor. At that moment, everyone saw that there was nothing in the shadows, except that the trees outside were shaken by the wind and rain. The reflection left behind.
"Tsk."
Yan Rong put away his stick dissatisfied, and the people behind him went downstairs one after another. Lu Ning knew that it was definitely not an illusion. There was something in the shadow, because there was no such bright light outside the window before that cast the shadow of the tree?
"It's an uncomfortable scene." Ning Yeyi whispered, "You know? Lu Ning, compared to the visible weakness of the blood disaster... I think this place is more nerve-wracking. I promised to upgrade. What about the pollution of the soul that was there at the beginning? I didn’t feel that I was harmed at all, so how can we talk about pollution?”
"I'm also thinking about this issue now, but more importantly, what kind of monsters are in this scene?"
Lu Ning still couldn't forget the feeling just now. She hadn't experienced fear like this for a long time. At most, she was surprised and nervous. But in this scene, you can actually encounter this kind of thing on the next floor?
"Let's keep moving forward." Rong Han said, "Fear can't solve the problem, and everyone is mentally prepared to come. This shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
No one had any objections.
Everyone slowly walked down the stairs. This is the first floor of the A7 teaching building, also called the chemistry building, because most of the chemistry major courses are offered here, and the building is also equipped with some small chemistry laboratories.
Walk along the corridor for a while and you will see the closed door not far away. But as she got closer, Lu Ning also saw that the main entrance of the teaching building was covered with a large number of seals. The dark yellow seals had "KEEP OUT" written in black fonts. However, when everyone got closer, they immediately discovered that part of them It says "KILL OUT".
"Kill... to get out?"
"Who believes it?" Yan Rong smashed the window glass next to him with a stick, pulled the broken pieces aside twice, and then jumped directly onto the window sill.
"Be careful! I don't know if there is any problem with the rain outside!" Lu Ning immediately warned.
Yan Rong did not go out rashly, but went out with a stick to soak up some rainwater, then took it back, smelled it carefully, and said, "Ordinary rainwater."
"You know it just by smelling it?" Cang Su was a little surprised.
"My nose is more sensitive than ordinary people, and the distribution center also admits that this is a talent rather than a disease." Yan Rong scratched his cheek, "There is nothing wrong with the rain outside, and there is nothing dangerous. We can go out."
After saying that, she jumped out of the window.
Sure enough, nothing happened, but soon Yan Rong rolled back from the window. In just a moment, she was soaked, and even the water could come out of her hair when she twisted it.
"Water is harmless, but the rain outside is really heavy." Yan Rong wiped his face and said helplessly, "This kind of heavy rain will cause a suffocation even if you go out for a hundred or two meters. If you stay in such humidity for a long time, It’s impossible to bear the extreme weight outdoors, and our current physique is still that of ordinary people.”
"What should I do?" Xu Jianqi said concisely.
"At least make an umbrella." Ning Yeyi said.
Ning Yeyi was obviously not talking about ordinary umbrellas. With heavy rain and slightly strong winds, an umbrella made of plastic or tarpaulin wouldn't last long. If you want to move around normally outdoors, you have to use stronger materials.
"Well... the cleaner's clothes are waterproof, but using them as raincoats restricts movement." Yan Rong had some ideas of his own, but it was obviously not a good idea. Lu Ning had already come up with the idea of a classroom door. The classroom doors in such a modern university were made of lightweight materials and would not be particularly heavy, but they were still doors after all, so it would not be a problem to keep out the rain.
After she mentioned this idea, Rong Han immediately said that he had some experience as a craftsman and it would be enough if someone could do it. Of course, in addition to removing the door panel, he would also need some other materials.
"As for tools, maybe you can find something useful in the laboratory. Also, if the classroom door is difficult to remove, the door of the toilet cubicle should also be able to be removed."
Rong Han also added.
Everyone took action quickly. Zhou Weiyuan left Rong Han to help, and the rest began to destroy the work.
Lu Ning and Ning Yeyi were still together, but they didn't really wander too far apart, just moving around in the corridor. The two quickly found the bathroom on this floor, and just as Rong Han said, the door of the compartment was easily removable.
Just as the two of them worked together to remove the first partition door, a soft hum suddenly came from the innermost compartment.
There was almost no need to discuss it, they immediately threw down the door panel and ran outside.
Yan Rong and Qin Yulou, who were looking for usable items in a nearby classroom, happened to see the two of them running out and asked what was going on. Lu Ning pointed directly inside and said, "We just heard strange noises."
"What's going on?" Yan Rong came over with a stick in his hand, "What is it?"
"It looks like someone, but I'm not sure if it's a real person."
"Step aside."
Yan Rong had the courage that many tourists didn't have, and at least Lu Ning didn't have the courage to test it under unknown circumstances. After the two got out of the way, Yan Rong walked into the bathroom, set up the stick like a billiard cue, and poked the stall door that Lu Ning pointed out.
"Well……"
This time, everyone heard clearly the slightly painful grunting of someone inside.
"Come out! Stop pretending!" Yan Rong shouted, even Lu Ning and Ning Yeyi at the door were startled. There was a sudden silence in the cubicle, and then the door was knocked open!
With a loud noise, a man holding a sharp ax jumped out of the compartment, roaring loudly: "Don't come to me! Monster!"
when!
There was a collision, and Yan Rong dodged the frontal collision extremely quickly. He raised the stick with both hands to hold the opponent's ax handle, and then flew up and kicked the opponent's abdomen. Both sides took two steps back. Yan Rong just When he was about to raise his stick to meet him, the man suddenly let out a miserable roar, threw away his ax and started scratching his face hard.
"It's... it's rain! It's water! It's wet! It's wet! Monster ahhhhh!!!"
Under the astonished gazes of the three people, his entire face began to melt like a wax statue, and even his blood became extremely viscous, and soon began to melt into his bones. Even so, the man was still alive and even took two steps in Yan Rong's direction.
"you……"
Yan Rong directly pressed the stick against the opponent's chest.
"do not come!"
The man opened his mouth, but now the melted state had spread to his neck, and he could no longer make a sound. The remaining half of his mouth opened and closed a weird smile, opened and closed a few times, and then was covered by the melted substance flowing down his face. Covered.
boom!
The body fell heavily to the ground, and the whole body began to melt, and the speed became faster and faster. In the end, only a set of tattered shirts and trousers were left on the ground, as well as dirty melted materials all over the floor.
"Is he...dead?" Ning Yeyi asked.
"Dead." Yan Rong retreated to the door when the man fell. Such a weird and terrifying scene is just a slightly shocking scene for tourists, but the real situation behind this man's death is threaten.
"Let me check." Lu Ning walked around Yan Rong and walked in. She first checked the cubicle where the man jumped out. It was an ordinary bathroom cubicle, just like any other. Judging from the way the door was damaged, it was indeed a man who broke it open directly. Although the partition door is not that strong, it is not easy to break it open directly.
Then there was the ax that the man was holding... The ax was covered with dried blood, so thick that it even covered the blade of the ax. It was hard to imagine what kind of brutal battle he had gone through. But aside from that, the shape of the ax itself is also very strange. It is made of metal as a whole, and even if it is covered with blood, it can still be called sharp. There is no problem at all in splitting wooden door panels with it.
Ning Yeyi had also walked in at this time. She turned on the faucet, but no water came out, but it didn't matter. The most important thing here was water.
Lu Ning understood, opened the window, took out the ax and washed it. The blood stains had long since dried and couldn't be washed away much, but they would soften after being soaked in water, and then they could knock off the blood clots with a few forceful blows. .
"Yan Rong, take this axe."
"No." Yan Rong glanced at the ax and shook his head in rejection.
"Why? This should be considered your trophy."
"I like to use long-handled weapons, but this is just a hand ax at best, which is not easy to use." Yan Rong said with disdain, as if the sharpness of the ax was not as useful as the mop rod in her hand.
Very good... Lu Ning still didn't quite understand the martial arts school's thinking. She handed the ax to Ning Yeyi, who didn't have a self-defense weapon, and walked to the clothes left by the man.
"It seems that you are good at this, so it will be easy to handle. But why did he call me a monster when he came out? I look like a monster?" Yan Rong stood guard at the door, letting Lu Ning and Ning Yeyi continue to inspect the scene. Trying to chat.
"Are you mentally disturbed? What he said was also very confusing."
"But... there is some logic in it. At least he yelled about water, moisture, etc., which shows that he knows that those things are harmful to him."
"Harmful? Water?" Yan Rong frowned, "Is this a third-level instant death trap?"
"It can only be said to be part of it." Lu Ning replied, while he had already sorted out the clothes from the pile of dirty things and started to check each pocket.
This man is a teacher named Xu Hong. Judging from the location of the office, he should be in a psychology-related discipline. However, this teacher’s ID card only has this little information, not even a photo. Other than that, it is Awahara Avionics. The emblem and name of the university are on it. Judging from the degree of wear and tear, this card has been used for a long time.
From the pocket of his pants, Lu Ning found a needle with a little blue liquid remaining inside. The needle had been twisted and wrapped in a rag. He didn't know why he didn't throw it away.
"He only has these things on him. Judging from this perspective, he should be an aborigine in the scene." Lu Ning put away the two things and stood up.
"Yeah?"
"Perhaps they are people who have disappeared before. They have lived in this scene for a long time...or maybe not for a long time. There is no evidence that the passage of time here is the same as the outside world." Ning Yeyi stared at the glass above the sink After looking at the mirror for a long time, he finally slowly stretched out his hand and touched the surface of the mirror.
"What did you find?"
"The world in the mirror." Ning Yeyi laughed.
Lu Ning and Yan Rong immediately came over and looked in the mirror.
