Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 307 Going to the Free Zone

Lin Sanjiu didn't know the place he was in at all.

It's been a while since I woke up.She stood in the cold wind a little dazedly, not knowing what was going on.Nothing made sense - she tried to list everything that happened before the next instance, but still couldn't explain why she was here.

After she jumped out, the flesh cavity behind her was trembling slightly like a wounded animal; milk-like white smoke continuously leaked out from the blasted hole, which lasted for several minutes.Lin Sanjiu, who was still very alert at first, soon discovered that once the "milk" flowed into the outside air, it seemed to be diluted, lost its original characteristics, and involuntarily dissipated in the cold wind.Occasionally, a little bit that she accidentally breathed in just made her mind wander for a while, and it didn't have any major impact.

The rough, cold and hard rocks pressed heavily on both sides of the body, as if they could close and swallow Lin Sanjiu at any time.The gaps between the stone walls were narrow and irregular, which made the bone wing behind her a headache; no matter how hard she tried to adjust the angle of the bone wing, it was always uncomfortable.The only spacious space is where the meat cavity is: as if a pocket has been carved out of the stone wall, the meat cavity is right in the center, leaving a circle of open space around it.

Lin Sanjiu stopped looking up a long time ago—as far as her evolutionary eyesight is concerned, the stone wall stretched to the end of her line of sight before a pale white line was drawn on top of her head; when she looked up for the first time, she It took a few seconds to realize that the line turned out to be the sky far away.

Sighing, she groped the stone wall and took a few steps forward.The gaps between the stones are covered with thin soil, and from this thin nutrient, a few clumps of dark green leaves are drilled out, which look like people in the flesh cavity, as if they are about to die.

She obviously entered a dungeon with the members of the smiling mermaid—but why she woke up in a meat cavity under the abyss, Lin Sanjiu had no idea.

A sticky and slippery liquid flowed out of the shattered meat cavity, and every time he took a step, there was a "gurgling, gurgling" sound on the soles of the shoes.Under the thin and dim sky, the original crimson flesh color of the meat cavity gradually withered, and a dying dark brown appeared—no matter what it was, Lin Sanjiu That blow sent it to a dead end.

Moving people out was much more difficult than she thought—although a few of them seemed to be healthy, most of them had been consumed to the point where only one Put the bones; when Lin Sanjiu was trying to pick up a girl, he accidentally brushed her thigh, and with a "click", the girl's leg bones were separated from the pelvis, leaving only one layer Thin dry yellow skin connects the legs to the body.

After the "milk" is gone, maybe these people will wake up slowly, but Lin Sanjiu doesn't plan to wait here until that moment.There were about thirty or forty people rescued from the meat cavity, and she carefully placed them on the corridor; after doing all this, she found water from the card library, and fed everyone some water. .Then, she stepped on the pitiful space between the human body, like a ballet dancer, Lin Sanjiu walked towards the depths of the stone wall with some difficulty.

On the other side where the light is slightly brighter and the terrain is slightly higher, within two hours there will be only a dead end made of mud and rocks; although Lin Sanjiu is very reluctant, the only way out at present is to face the road. The gap between the rocks was dark and steep, and the gap between the stones became narrower and narrower.

This was the most uncomfortable "road" that Lin Sanjiu had walked.At a distance of several thousand meters from the ground, in a gap that was somehow separated deep in the rock layer, in a narrow and dark space that could make anyone suffer from claustrophobia, Lin Sanjiu struggled, I don't know how long I walked.

At the beginning, she was only puzzled and worried; but later on, all she had left in her heart was hatred for the bones and wings behind her—bumps and frictions were just trivial things, and some places were too narrow to allow huge bones and wings Pass; as if forcibly bending the limbs to an impossible angle, Lin Sanjiu gritted her teeth and endured the pain to open and stretch the bone wings, and sometimes even fold them, even she herself didn't know how to squeeze them over— — But fortunately, in such a deep underground, no one could hear her screaming in pain.

Just before she thought she was about to break off the bone wing and throw it away, the space between the stone walls finally gradually widened—the light became brighter, the corridor became wider, and the slope became more and more upward. After several hours of crawling on hands and feet, Lin Sanjiu found himself touching the ground.

The noisy human voices, the occasional sound of the engine of the spaceship passing through the sky, and the muffled sound of something unknown, flooded into her ears along with thousands of other sounds, making her almost doubt that she had returned to the world from hell for a moment. .

...Two huge full moons hung over countless dilapidated buildings with hundreds of floors, divided into countless pieces by layers of wires, and the bustling flow of people wrapped in noisy voices filled every place illuminated by the lights. , or corners that cannot be illuminated.

She still seems to be in the Cyber ​​Zone.

A deep hole was clearly torn in the ground, but to passers-by, it seemed that an abyss appeared in the middle of the road had become a common occurrence; the place where Lin Sanjiu climbed out was only surrounded by a yellow belt. A circle, to warn people not to fall into it.When she got out, her skin was cut by the hard rock and dripping with blood, her head, face, and limbs were covered with dirt and dust, and her whole body hurt—but no one gave her a second look.

Lin Sanjiu endured the pain and found the map.

"...It's strange, why are we back here again?" After staring at the map for a while, Teacher Yi in his mind spoke first.

Although she was not familiar with the red nautilus, it did not prevent her from quickly finding where she was - the abyss that spanned most of the cyberspace, and was named the "Grand Canyon" by the people here, like a scar as shown on the map. One end of the "Grand Canyon" was a piece of wasteland, and Lin Sanjiu was at the other end close to the business district - when she looked out the window of the appraiser's house, she had already seen the "Grand Canyon" once.

But there was still a long distance between the Grand Canyon and the territory of the smiling mermaid; Lin Sanjiu couldn't figure out why he ran to the bottom of the abyss.

Since the loss of that "Girl's Sorrow" nothing has ever made sense or even connected.

Lin Sanjiu rubbed the map irritably, then stopped again, because she remembered the red crystals on the map. "I don't know—" she was a little cross. "But, whoever or what got me, let today be their lucky day—I'm going to buy a ticket now."

Although she was kind, she wasn't stupid—when a dozen Zhongjing fell out of a person she was moving out of, Lin Sanjiu knew that her ticket was no longer a problem.

Although the money was not taken with confidence, even Mr. Yi, who has always had a relatively high moral standard, agreed that maybe people who are unconscious at the bottom of the abyss need more drinking water than red crystals.

"But... what about the dungeon that is devouring the red nautilus? Don't you care?" Teacher Yi was not so easy to talk this time.

"I can't ignore this," Lin Sanjiu admitted, "but where is this copy?"

"You know it clearly, just smiling at the mermaid—"

"It stands to reason that I should also be in the territory of the smiling mermaid." She interrupted Teacher Yi's unfinished sentence. "And yet here I am when I wake up."

Teacher Yi didn't speak for a long time, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "Then... it may also be because the copy has been swallowed here..."

"I don't see any difference from before."

"That's because Sajie said—" Teacher Yi was stunned for a moment as soon as he said this, and then stopped.

Lin Sanjiu smiled slightly, but there was not much smile in his eyes. "...That's right, it was all said by Sajie. We entered the instance with her, but she wasn't in that meat cavity."

That girl with a very abnormal appearance must know something, but she didn't tell Lin Sanjiu and his party.

"When I see Lou Ye and the others, I will use the power of the Growers Alliance to come back and investigate Sajie." She walked towards the direction of the spaceship login point, and said to herself in a low voice. "Until I find that woman, I can only hope that the forces of the Red Nautilus will be smarter and not let things develop beyond control."

——Perhaps this idea is not so unreliable; until Lin Sanjiu walked into the spaceship login point where people were shuttling, and stood in front of the electronic information board for a long time.

She clearly remembered that the smiling mermaid had already obtained information about "swallowing a copy", but she couldn't find any clues about this matter from "Cyber ​​Current Affairs". Successful return", "12 new doomsday world information entry systems", "someone bought special plant items at high prices" and other news.

"What's going on..." Lin Sanjiu frowned, but couldn't figure out why.Shaking her head, she strode towards the ticket counter, blending into the flow of people coming and going.

After the tall woman with the bony wings left, the young ticket seller glanced down at her electronic information board and checked the visa auction price four months later.For a D-level world, her bid was still too low; just as she sighed and didn't know what to do, she felt another figure approaching the ticket counter.

"Hello," the young girl smiled semi-professionally, and her voice froze in her throat.

This woman's eyes are like two deep dry wells, without any whites.Even though she saw hundreds of grotesque people every day, there was something special about this woman, not human, that made the young girl shudder.

As if realizing that something was wrong with her, the woman wearing a thick scarf looked down at the reflection of the metal countertop, and then raised her head again.This time, the whites of her eyes appeared; as if she pinched her black eyeballs hard enough to reveal some whites, she blinked vigorously and smiled.

"Where is the bone-winged sister going? I want a ticket to go there too."

　I'm back, what kind of reactions are there in the comment area... What the hell is the author entering the village...

Thank you for your monthly tickets and rewards. I am about to go out and have no time to write a list. I will post them together in the next update~
