Ordoño, who was getting more and more uneasy, looked around nervously, "I know it won't be of much use. I just hope you can tell us what to do. Let's book a book ()"
Qiu Yu said slowly, "Leave here and leave the limited area of the game. This choice is likely to compensate for the previous way of victory and prevent the earth's civilization from falling into despair. However... it is still based on the principle of balance. We want I’m afraid it won’t be easy to leave here.”
"It's not easy." Ordoño fired several shots around him. "We rushed out all the way. Apart from some hallucinations, nothing that can attack us has appeared yet, right?"
Qiu Yu sighed and shook his head, "Not now, doesn't mean there won't be anytime soon..."
Qiu Yu's words suddenly stopped, and fleeting expressions of fear appeared on his and Ordoño's faces at the same time.
Ordoño's expression was slightly distorted, "What was it just now? What was it?"
This time, the others saw nothing either.
Qiu Yu pressed his temples, "For humans, no matter how scary things can be described in words, there will be a limit. Things that can really make people collapse cannot be expressed in words. Just like the unknown, fear and despair will only come from the unknown. ...Anyway, let’s get out of here first. But before that, I need you to knock me out.”
Qian's body trembled, "Master, what did you say?"
"It's hard for me to survive the current situation, and I suspect that the other party is using our fear or perception ability as a force to grow. This is just a guess, but since this is possible, we must try our best without harming normal interests. Eliminate it.”
"But……"
Qian Xiao wanted to say something more, but felt his back sink, and Qiu Yu had already leaned on his shoulder. Qiu Yan was taking back the hand that had just knocked Qiu Yu unconscious.
"The summary of what I just said is that the later we leave, the more dangerous it will be, so don't waste time chatting." After Qiu Yan made this conclusion, he walked forward.
Qian Xiao muttered a few words with a bitter face, and immediately followed.
Ordoño's eyes wandered back and forth on the others, and finally gritted his teeth, holding the gun tightly and walking in the middle.
At the end of the corridor, there is a security door that is not very strong when opened. Under normal circumstances, there should be stairs going down behind the door.
But according to the previous experience, fear always appears when the known and the unknown switch. This is how Qiuyu looks out the window, this is how he opens the elevator in the dark, and the same is true when he enters a room with strange noises.
So when they saw this door, everyone hesitated instinctively. Only Qiu Yan, who seemed to have never been afraid, walked towards the door without hesitation, and then gently pushed the door open.
Then... space or time seemed to be confused. The next moment Qiu Yan opened the door, she appeared on the other side of the door.
The door slowly closed back as if someone had pushed it.
"Don't let the door close." Qianxiao shouted as he realized something was wrong.
Jiuwei and Li Ningfeng reacted faster than Qian Xiao. Before Qian Xiao shouted, they rushed towards the door at the same time.
However, the two people who rushed towards the door had a strange illusion, as if their position was getting further and further away from the door. It was obviously only two or three meters away from the door, but with the speed of the two of them, they could reach it in the blink of an eye. But when the two people who sprinted with all their strength reached the door, the door, which didn't seem to close very quickly, had been completely closed.
The two looked at each other and pushed towards the security door at the same time.
No resistance was encountered as expected, and no terrifying sight was seen. The door was pushed open again so naturally. This huge contrast is like someone trying to lift a huge boulder with all his strength, but after doing so, he realizes that the boulder is just a piece of foam, which makes people feel uncoordinated and uncomfortable.
"The goddess is missing."
Qian Xiao's shout made the two people quickly get rid of the sense of incongruity. Li Ningfeng glanced at the empty corridor in front of him, held the door with one hand to prevent it from closing again, and then leaned out and looked down.
The stairs below were not completely dark, but there was a faint light. With Li Ningfeng's eyesight, this light was enough to penetrate the small gap between each floor and see clearly the scene more than ten floors away. But there is no trace of Qiu Yan in these dozen or so floors.
"I'll go after him and have a look."
Li Ningfeng said, and wanted to jump down, but was caught by Jiuwei, "Together."
Everyone understood what Kyuubi meant as soon as they heard it. Together meant everyone was together. The current weird situation could no longer be dispersed.
Several people walked downstairs at a speed that couldn't be said to be fast, but not too slow either.
On the one hand, this is to save physical strength and cope with various emergencies. On the one hand, he is also taking care of Qingqiu and Qian Xiao, who is carrying Qiu Yu on his back.
Ten minutes later, Kyuubi, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped and asked, "How many flights of stairs can we go down in one minute?"
Qian Xiao had just started to calculate subconsciously in his mind, and Qingqiu had already signed in sign language without stopping, "Eight to nine floors."
"Did anyone notice just now how many floors the building was when we came out?"
Qingqiu said in sign language again. "It says on the corridor it's the twenty-seventh floor."
Li Ningfeng also said, "I just noticed that elevator, and it also showed the twenty-seventh floor."
Qian Xiao's body trembled, "So we have already gone down to dozens of floors underground?"
Kyuubi frowned and looked up and down the corridors, "We never saw any signs indicating floors along the way."
"Damn it." Ordoño raised his hand towards the wall. A clear bullet hole was left on the wall. "Make a mark and go down and take a look."
After that, Ordoño fired one more shot into the wall every time he went to the next floor. After firing 30 consecutive shots on the first floor, Qian Xiao quickly stopped, "The hole in the wall may be repaired by the other party." , it is also possible that we are indeed going down. This will prove nothing."
Ordoño said anxiously, "What should we do?"
"Go in and take a look." Qian Xiao tapped the security door a few meters away with his chin.
Qian Xiao's words made everyone suddenly quiet down. Everyone else had thought of this, but after seeing Qiu Yan's mysterious disappearance, they all became instinctively afraid of opening the door.
"Let's all come together." Li Ningfeng suggested after a moment, then walked to the door and looked back at the others.
When everyone stood crowded at the door, Qian Xiao still shouted slogans, "One, two, three..."
When the three words came out, everyone including Qingqiu pushed towards the door at the same time.
When the door was just pushed out a gap, Jiuwei's eyes narrowed and he immediately rolled aside with Qingqiu in his arms.
Qian Xiao and the wooden stake man were suddenly pushed by Li Ningfeng, causing Qiu Yu to roll into a ball.
Ordoño held the door with his feet, lay on the ground and kept shooting into the corridor behind the door. Continuous gunfire and sporadic gunfire rang out.
The continuous gunshots were Ordoño’s 2042 assault rifle. The sporadic gunfire was an attack from the corridor behind the door.
Looking at the sawdust blooming on the door, Qian Xiao shrank back desperately, "Aliens can also use guns! They can't let anyone live."
Under Ordoño's ferocious firepower, the attack in the corridor stopped almost instantly, and at the same time, an urgent cry sounded, "Stop shooting, it's one of our own."
"Our own people?" Qian Xiao glanced into the dark corridor, and then quickly retracted his head, "Our own people are all here, which one are you from?"
"Earth, Earth civilization." The voice in the corridor paused, fearing that the other party would not believe it, and quickly added, "We are on the second floor of the Tower of Civilization. Are you on the first floor?"
"First throw the gun where I can see it, put your hands on your head, and walk out backwards facing behind."
Ordoño has plenty of experience with situations like this. Everyone has an instinctive insecurity about things beyond their sight. If you are someone who wants to play some trick, you may accept the order to throw down your weapon and put your hands on your head, but turning your back on the threat is not something you can do easily.
Ordoño had already made up his mind. If the other party hesitated for a moment or didn't do what he said, he would kill him first. In the current situation, you can't even trust your eyes, let alone "one of your own" who suddenly pops up. Even if the other party is really a participant in the game of the earth's civilization, there is no guarantee that it will not cause other troubles to our side. Anyway, it has been decided that the chosen way to win is to leave the restricted area of the game. Killing a few people and extending the game for a few hours is nothing compared to the threats that may arise.
But the other party actually threw the gun out immediately after Ordoño's words came out, and retreated from the room next to the corridor with his back to everyone.
Such a quick response made Ordoño hesitate. After all, killing these people without any excuse would still bring negative consequences to himself even if others could understand that this was to eliminate potential threats. Evaluation, this is quite detrimental to yourself in the team. Seeing Qian Xiao standing in front of him with a flashlight, Ordoño's eyelids twitched and he finally suppressed the urge to shoot.
As Qian Xiao's flashlight flickered away, three figures in camouflage uniforms appeared in the corridor, "Team travel?"
When the three men in camouflage uniforms retreated to the door and slowly turned around under Ordoño's instructions, Qian Xiao exclaimed again, "It's still a multinational force!"
The three men in camouflage uniforms are a white man, a black man, and an Indian with a signature red dot on his forehead.
The white man was about to put down his hand on his head, but when he saw Ordoño's gun raised, he was so frightened that he quickly put it back down, "Brother, don't do this. I heard from the supervisor that there is nothing wrong with killing your own people." It’s beneficial.”
Seeing Kyuubi nodding to him, Ordoño slowly put down the gun, but his finger was still on the trigger, ready to be activated at any time.
However, the three of them were greatly relieved that the muzzle of the gun could be moved away from their heads.
