Chapter 734 Bewitching Whispers (Da Zhang asks for a monthly pass)
Newland city-state · core island

"What, someone opened the door and went to the street?"

Kodo looked at the walkie-talkie in his hand blankly, "How many people are there? Where are they? Why didn't they listen to the dissuasion and go to the street?"

"There are a lot of people," said a noisy reply from the intercom. "There are people in every block of the five islands. I don't know why they took to the streets. We are asking the gendarmerie to persuade them to go back."

Kodo raised his head, leaned against the window and glanced outside, and sure enough, he saw several figures wandering outside the building.

"Did you ask why they suddenly took to the streets?"

Chen Lin on the side suddenly poked his head over and asked through the walkie-talkie.

The intercom seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then the voice became quieter. It seemed that the reporter ran up, and then there was a small voice of conversation. After a while, there was a gasping answer from the intercom.
"I just asked, and most of the people who came out said they heard the call of a missing relative, or saw their lost pet outside the door."

"Missing relatives and pets?"

Kodo asked with some doubts.

"Yes,"

The intercom responded, "That's what they said."

Chen Lin on the side thought for a moment, then whispered, "Maybe it has something to do with the disappearance cases created by West."

"But this time it's not West..."

Kodo answered subconsciously, but soon he realized that what happened to West may not have nothing to do with what they are going through now.

So he picked up the walkie-talkie and began to ask other important points, "Did someone enter the world opposite the door because of opening the door?"

The intercom paused for a while, as if they were also asking, and after a while they replied, "The gendarmerie said that some people reported missing, saying that their family members disappeared as soon as they left the house, and some people had no one at home, it seems There are a lot of people missing, but it's too chaotic here, they haven't counted the number of possible missing people."

"Let them give priority to persuading those who go to the streets to go home," Kodo quickly ordered, "These people are easily attacked by monsters wandering on the street outside, and it will affect our actions to clean up the monsters."

"Ok!"

Nod over the intercom.

Kedo cut off the communication, he looked up at Chen Lin, and said with a little irritability, "It looks like some kind of weird creature or weird item, 'bewitching' people staying at home to go out."

"Maybe it's the 'insiders' hiding in the city-state."

Chen Lin thought about it.

"Should we go down and investigate now?"

Kodo stood up, put his hands on the table, and glanced out the window, "There are more and more doors open, and the monsters we face are getting stronger and stronger, and the people below may not be able to hold on anymore, but if we If you go down, there will be no one here."

"We should indeed go down,"

Chen Lin beside him said in a deep voice, "And the speed must be fast."

"why?"

Codo looked at him.

"We have to show that there are always people here, at least we have to show that there are people behind us."

Chen Lin looked at him, and replied in a deep voice, "We have been hiding up there, but people hiding in the dark will wonder if there is anything tricky here, and doubt the whereabouts of those two."

Speaking of this, he paused, "Of course, if the other party can mobilize this weird 'bewitching' power, they may have already known our truth and reality. This is the worst case, so after we go down, we still have to do it well." Self-preservation."

"It's getting worse and worse,"

Kodo sat back on the chair, raised his hand, held his forehead, and pinched the forehead. After a while, he put down his hand and sighed, "I hope those two can succeed."

"I hope so."

Looking at the starry sky outside the window, Chen Lin also sighed.

They all know that the chances of success are slim, but at least, there is hope.

Kodo also stared out the window.

While the glass under the dark night sees through the night scene outside the window, it also reflects his face.

The fuzzy 'reflection in the mirror' with messy hair sat in the window, looking out of the window at Kodo who was exactly the same as him, with a serious and sad expression.

It raised the corners of its mouth and revealed a deep smile.

"There should be a gate here."

At the end of the dark corridor, at the narrow door of the elevator, He Ao stopped and looked up.

Fear raised the flashlight and shone it overhead.

A faint radiance shone above the heads of the two, green vines covered the wall, and between the gaps of the vines, an alloy gate embedded in the wall could be vaguely seen.

"There is one,"

She nodded slightly in surprise, "What is the gate set here for? Is it blocking something?"

"Should be some kind of emergency safety device,"

He Ao looked back, at the end of the deep and dark passage, he could vaguely see the faint lights on the top of the commercial street outside the passage, "There should be more than one gate in this passage."

Fear turned the light of the flashlight and leaned over the heads behind the two of them.

Not far from the two of them, through the gaps of sparse vines, you can vaguely see a few things that seem to be similar to gates, and further back, the top of the entire corridor is covered by dense vines, what? I can't see clearly.

Then she turned her head and looked towards the claustrophobic elevator room with only two passages and one entrance.

She didn't realize the specialness of this place at first, but after He Ao brought up the existence of the gate, she gradually realized something.

She raised her head and looked at He Ao, "These gates are used to isolate the elevator? Once any dangerous situation occurs, the gate in this passage will lower itself? To isolate this elevator from the outside world? But what is the purpose of this design?" What? In order to isolate the connection between the first floor and the one below?"

"Precisely, perhaps to 'protect' the first floor,"

He Ao walked into the claustrophobic elevator room, looked at the dimly lit elevator screens, and said slowly, "Do you remember what Karin told us? From the second floor to the third floor, there is no The elevator from the first floor to the second floor is directly connected, but after passing through a corridor with gates, go down from another passage.

"If there is a fourth floor in the underground palace, I guess the fourth floor cannot pass through the passage from the second floor to the third floor, and we need to find another passage.

"Just from the convenience and efficiency of work, according to our previous speculation, if the first floor is a living area, then at least one of the lower floors should be a work area, or even all work areas.

"And if a worker who lives on the first floor wants to work on the lower floors, the most efficient way must be to build an elevator directly to the lower floors.
"Since the person who built this underground palace did not choose the most efficient method, but wanted to cut off the direct connection between the various floors, it can only explain one problem, and he has a reason to do so.

"Just as workers entering a dangerous area need to pass through a buffer zone and wear appropriate protective equipment, these deliberately 'extended' downstairs passages may be an artificially created buffer zone. When necessary, these passages The gates can also be lowered to act as a 'line of defense' around the living quarters on the first level."

"You mean, the lower floors of the underground palace were dangerous in the original design? So they have to be isolated from the first floor of the 'living area'?"

Fei Ya walked to He Ao, "Is this the reason why the underground palace is more dangerous than other places in the ruins? But where do these dangers come from?"

While speaking, she used a flashlight to scan around the surrounding elevator room. There are nine elevators in this elevator room, and five of them are still dimly lit. There is an open corridor door in the corner near the corridor, and dense vines flow through it. spread out.

"Extraordinary creatures, extraordinary items, just like our 'warehouse' where extraordinary items are sealed, anything is possible."

He Ao said softly.

Of course, ordinary extraordinary items and extraordinary creatures can be found everywhere, and they would not be placed alone in such a seemingly isolated place as the underground palace, so there may be some deeper secrets hidden here.

While speaking, He Ao stretched out his hand, and quickly pressed the five brightly lit elevators.

Karin said before when he came here that the five elevators here can be used, and the corridors can also be used, but now it seems that the corridors are covered with vines, and it may be a bit troublesome to pass.

"Do we have to look at every elevator?"

Fei Ya looked at He Ao suspiciously, at the moment, the five elevators all showed upward arrows.

"Do not,"

He Ao shook his head. He looked down at the bloodstains in front of a certain elevator, then turned around directly, found an elevator that was not on, and thrust his sword into the gap of the elevator. Pry open the elevator door,

Then he glanced down at the inside of the elevator shaft, "Let's go down here."

With that said, he jumped straight down.

Fei Ya was stunned for a moment, and then jumped down with He Ao.

bang bang-

Accompanied by two empty sounds, the two landed on top of the elevator car parked on the second basement floor.

He Ao signaled Fei Ya to take half a step back, then raised his sword, pierced the top of the elevator car with a single stroke, and then swung out a circle with a light stroke, and then stepped on it hard.

boom--

The round metal plate on the top of the elevator car suddenly fell off and smashed into the elevator car. Along with splashing blood, a little monster hidden in the elevator car was smashed instantly.

"How do you know there are monsters down here?"

Fei Ya looked at He Ao in surprise.

"I don't know," He Ao shook his head, "Insurance measures."

Just like passing by the grass where Lao Liu often squats when playing games, there will often be surprises if you use a skill for nothing.

With that said, he jumped into the elevator car, and Fei Ya also jumped down.

She looked curiously at the profile of the young man beside her.

He obviously looks young, but he seems to have a lot of combat experience.

Ding--

At the same time as the two of them entered the elevator car, five elevators arrived almost at the same time in the elevator room on the first floor. The moment the elevator door opened, five tentacles shot out like sharp swords.

The five tentacles passed through the void, and then bumped into other tentacles that stretched out, thinking that they had captured the prey, and quickly entangled with each other.

And as the elevator door was fully opened, five flesh and blood monsters lurking in the elevator, their bodies covering the elevator wall, were constantly wriggling, revealing their figures.

After a brief pause, the elevator door slowly closed before being caught by an outstretched tentacle

······
He Ao used the bone sword to pry open the elevator door which had a slight gap.

The lights in the elevator room on the second basement floor seemed to be fine, and there was still a faint light. The entire elevator room was covered with dried blood, which looked weird and bloody under the faint light.

Besides the blood, the most common thing here is the vines growing everywhere.

He Ao glanced over all of this and walked out of the elevator, followed by Fei Ya.

And not far from the two of them, the screens of the five elevators that went up just now were all lit up in red, as if some kind of malfunction had been triggered.

Fei Ya walked over and glanced at the content on the screen.

The animations of the elevator doors being stuck by foreign objects were displayed on the screens of these elevators. She frowned slightly, and then looked back at He Ao blankly, "Is there something in those five elevators?"

"Well," He Ao nodded, "it should be some kind of monster."

"You are," Fei Ya blinked and looked at He Ao in surprise, "How do you know?"

Obviously He Ao has never seen the appearance in those elevators.

"First of all, it was half a year ago that Karin came to the second floor last time. In fact, there is no guarantee that all five elevators are good,"

While looking at the surrounding scene, He Ao explained casually, "Secondly, there is an interval in front of one of the five elevators that is closer to the current bloodstain.
"Those bloodstains merged with the dried bloodstains on the floor of the elevator. Although it is not easy to identify, they do exist. This proves that not long ago, some creatures, even 'survivors' who entered here by mistake, were killed at the elevator entrance. attacked.

"Finally, remember our living area reasoning? If the first floor is the main living area, then in order to ensure that people who go down from the first floor to the lower floors can go to work smoothly, most of all elevators should They are all parked at the basement level by default.

"The probability of five elevators stopping at the second basement at the same time is very low, but you just saw that all five elevators go up from the second basement, so there is a high probability that other factors will interfere with them and make them stop at the second basement.

"To sum up, there is a high probability that there are problems with the five elevators, so I chose to take the abandoned elevator here."

Fei Ya turned her head blankly, looking at He Ao's back.

So how did he explain the use of the 'gate' to himself, and at the same time, figure out so many details in such a short time?
How can someone have such a strong mind while being so powerful?

Is this really human?

However, He Ao didn't pay attention to her blank gaze, but looked at a broken alloy plate fragment stained with blood that fell on the outermost elevator door.

He walked over and picked up the fragment of the alloy medal.

The alloy plate looks like some kind of identity plate. It only has the words of the first district on it. There are six words in total. He knows the first four words, which are "extraordinary creatures".

As for the latter two words, he happened to have seen them in the business district. On the signboard of 'Research Institute Commercial Consumption Area' written in five languages, the first two words happened to be the last two words on the nameplate.

If the grammatical relationship in He Ao's speculation is correct, the last two words should be 'research'.

In other words, the word on the nameplate of the entire alloy is 'Extraordinary Biological Research'.

The word 'research' is followed by section, and He Ao doesn't know if there is another word behind it.

He searched around, but did not find any other fragments of the nameplate. It seemed that this fragment was the only fragment left nearby.

Extraordinary biological research?

He Ao put away the nameplate.

This nameplate seems to be the nameplate of the 'staff' of a certain underground palace.

"Have you found anything?"

Fei Ya, who was always behind He Ao, came over and looked at He Ao with a puzzled expression.

"Find a nameplate, but it is the text of the ruins."

He Ao replied in a low voice, at the same time, he looked up to the front.

There are two corridors outside the elevator on the second floor.

The corridor on the left is covered with dense vines from the ground to the wall, it seems very narrow and long, with no end in sight.

The corridor on the right has fewer vines and is completely dark, and the depths cannot be seen.

"The corridor to the third basement floor seems to be going to the right."

Fiya on the side also glanced at the corridors on both sides, and finally landed on the corridor on the right, and said slowly.

"Um,"

He Ao nodded, walked over the vines on the ground, and walked straight to the corridor on the right, "Pay attention to your steps."

　Some things have been delayed for a long time, plus Calvin, so it's a bit late,
