As Lu Yu landed his last stab, the giant insect's head, which was as big as a watermelon, fell to the ground with a clatter.
Since the bug itself has died, all the biological light on it has been extinguished.
Darkness returned to the rattan cage, and vision was obstructed.
However, these did not affect Lu Yu's escape from the cage.
He had already memorized the location of the entrance to the cage, and with a touch of his hand, he had determined the direction.
Pushing the corpse of the giant insect out of the hole, Lu Yu held the tail thorn in his right hand and stabbed it towards the edge of the hole.
Although the tail spines can easily pierce intact rattan fibers, they are more than enough to deal with the broken parts.
With Lu Yu's efforts, the hole that had previously blocked the giant insect's head expanded to the width of his shoulders, which was enough for Lu Yu to crawl out alone.
Clinging to the surrounding vines with his hands and feet, Lu Yu was like a clumsy sloth, supporting his body and slowly getting out of the hole.
I don't know where I am, and the space outside the general office is also dark, with only sporadic lights coming from far corners, which seem to be windows.
Because he couldn't see the road conditions around him, Lu Yu didn't dare to run away, so he had to move little by little like a blind man. .
According to Lu Yu's speculation, he should still be in the residential building at this time.
After all, the ivy vine was dragging him, but he did not lose consciousness.
Combined with the time spent previously, it should not be enough to support him from leaving the residential building.
It was just dark at the moment, and Lu Yu didn't know which floor he was on.
"Why don't you move towards a place with light? If you are still in a residential building, the place with light should be a window or the entrance of a corridor..."
While groping forward, Lu Yu was thinking about countermeasures in his heart.
Although there were a lot of stumbling along the way, luckily I didn't encounter any of the strange insects or rustling sounds from before.
Soon, Lu Yu approached the location where the light came from.
It was a glass window, the outside was covered with dense green leaves, and only a little light came in, precisely because of this.
I originally thought that I could use the tail thorn in my hand to break the glass in exchange for more light and vision.
But Lu Yu was keenly aware that the green leaves outside the glass seemed to be "alive."
There was obviously no wind blowing, but it was vibrating in the air.
"If I break the glass, the ivy on the outer wall will probably entangle me again and send me to a rattan cage..."
Thinking of this, Lu Yu felt a little itchy on his body and stretched out his hand to scratch it. He felt that the area was where the cane had been strangled before.
Giving up the idea of breaking the glass, Lu Yu continued to smear the story.
Anyway, a residential building is only so big. Although I don’t know the direction now, as long as I keep moving in a certain direction, I will always find a way.
Lu Yu remembered that when he was brought in while being restrained by canes, he seemed to have passed through a dense green leaf, and then entered the building through the window.
In other words, as long as he found the open window, he might be able to escape from the darkness.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu's groping forward speeded up a bit.
"I don't know how Xiaoran is doing... Gu Changfeng should have no problem taking her..."
I don't know if it was because he had been in the dark for a long time, but Lu Yu felt that his eyes were beginning to gradually adapt to the darkness in front of him.
From being unable to see anything but a tiny bit of light in the beginning, it has now become vaguely possible to see objects in the dark.
Although it was just a vague outline, it still made it clear to Lu Yu
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
provided great help.
Lu Yu quickly found a dark cave entrance based on what he saw.
There are dense rattans around the entrance of the cave, but these rattans are just rattans and do not move freely like the ivy on the outer wall.
Lu Yu approached, but they just crawled on the ground quietly without any movement.
"The reinforced concrete floor was actually made with a hole made by rattan... The mutated plants after the apocalypse are really wild..."
Feeling impressed by the power of the mutant ivy, Lu Yu looked around again.
He had looked around this floor. Except for the evenly sized rattan cages arranged in the center, there were no other entrances or exits to pass through.
The only opening was the hole in front of him.
But in Lu Yu's impression, he was not dragged through any cave entrance by the cane.
"Maybe I was too fast and didn't notice... I should have been dragged in through this hole..."
Muttering in his mouth, Lu Yu knelt down and looked into the hole.
His eyes had adapted to the darkness, but there was no light at all at the entrance of the cave. After looking at it for a long time, Lu Yu couldn't see anything interesting inside.
"I can't see anything. Wouldn't it be too risky to continue like this..."
Lu Yu curled his lips in the darkness and was a little undecided.
Judging from the surrounding situation, the current hole should be the only way out.
But at the same time, the cave entrance gave him a very strange feeling.
It was as if the hole was not an exit, but an entrance to a more terrifying abyss.
After thinking for a while, Lu Yu decided to go down the hole.
With his hands on the ground, Lu Yu bit the clothes covering the tail thorns with his mouth, and moved little by little towards the entrance of the cave.
Fortunately, the bottom of the cave entrance was not suspended in the air. Before Lu Yu could start to stretch his legs, his toes touched a hard place.
After testing it for a few times and finding that it could bear the weight of his body, Lu Yu released his hands and jumped down.
After groping for a while in the darkness, Lu Yu found a space similar to a corridor. He walked down it and the surrounding environment gradually became brighter.
Seeing the changes around him, Lu Yu put his heart back in his stomach a little.
It seems that he has chosen the right path.
Just when Lu Yu thought he was out of trouble, there was a rustling sound in the corridor below him.
This sound was very familiar to Lu Yu. It was exactly the sound he heard after killing the dragonfly giant insect before!
Now that he has clearly left the rattan cage area, why does he appear again in the corridor?
"Is it possible that you felt something was wrong and came back to check?"
Lu Yu's heart beat.
Although he didn't know what was making the strange noise.
But one thing he knew clearly, that thing was definitely not a good thing.
Maybe it's a mutated creature similar to a giant dragonfly.
Going down the stairs was definitely out of the question right now, as doing so would bring the thing in front of me.
So Lu Yu could only run up the stairs.
After the trauma was gone, the ivy on the outer wall became dense again, the light was blocked by the green leaves, and the corridor gradually became dim.
Because he was returning the same way, Lu Yu passed the previous platform again.
Logically speaking, as a visitor unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, Lu Yu should not continue to go up the corridor, but should choose a relatively familiar platform to hide.
After all, he comes from
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Escaped there.
But at the moment of making a decision, Lu Yu didn't know what happened, and suddenly ran upstairs firmly.
He just felt an inexplicable guidance in his heart, urging him to go to the rooftop quickly.
Lu Yu knew very well that the consequences he would face after going to the rooftop would be that there would be no way out, but he just ran up there by accident.
"Damn...why did I run to the rooftop? Could it be because of the dream I had before?"
While climbing the stairs, Lu Yu complained to himself.
When they were about to approach the rooftop, Xixi Suosuo below finally stopped getting closer.
But he didn't leave, and was still lingering one floor below where Lu Yu was.
Because of the structure of the corridor, there was no good shielding, so Lu Yu did not dare to stretch his head to check.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the voice had no intention of leaving, he had no choice but to continue walking toward the roof of the building quietly.
There is no way to go down anyway, there is only one road left in front of you.
At this moment, Lu Yu felt like a duck being driven into a cage bit by bit by the beings behind him.
Even though he knew that the other party had bad intentions, he could only bite the bullet and go up.
Lu Yu quickly arrived at the end of the stairs.
Sunlight fell through the gaps in the top cover, illuminating a small space.
There is also a herringbone ladder beside it, leaning quietly against the wall.
Everything seems to be saying, Lu Yu, hurry up and climb to the rooftop. There will be a surprise after you climb up.
Xi Xisuosuo behind Lu Yu also began to get closer. Listening to the sound, it felt like he might rush up from below at any time.
"Holy crap...what does this mean? Just because I can fly in a dream, doesn't mean I can fly in reality..."
With a bitter word in his mouth, Lu Yu decided to climb up the ladder.
He also wanted to make other choices, but the current conditions did not give him a second option at all.
Lu Yu quietly opened the cover on his head and saw the scenery on the rooftop clearly.
As far as the eye can see, there are lush creeper vines.
The green leaves move automatically without wind, like a green ocean.
"Sure enough, there is also a dead end from above..."
Lu Yu silently complained in his heart and lowered his head.
The rustling sounds in the corridor were getting closer and closer, and Lu Yu could even see many swaying tentacles appearing around the dim corner.
It's like the tentacles on the head of a cockroach, except that the length and thickness are much larger than the normal size.
It can be seen that the thing making the rustling noise below is a mutated insect of the same type as the giant dragonfly.
The body size is much smaller than that of mutant dragonflies.
Lu Yu now had two choices before him.
The first is to go down the ladder and face the unknown mutated insects.
The insects below may be just superficial and have no fighting power at all.
But it could also be as lethal as a dragonfly giant insect.
In short, it is full of unknown options.
The second option is to climb up to the rooftop to face the vibrant ivy.
Although the ivy will 100% attack, judging from the previous situation, it will not harm Lu Yu's life.
At most, Lu Yu would be restrained and sent to a dark cage.
One unknown may survive, one known may be injured.
Lu Yu soon knew which one to choose...
