Soul echo

Chapter 290 Footsteps

Lilian turned her head and glanced at the direction behind her, and saw that the arrow was moving away from them.

"Teacher, are we not going out?"

Obviously, this was not the direction of the exit, Lilian didn't believe that Zhong Ye couldn't see it.

Zhong Ye nodded, "Well, I want to see what's inside."

Apart from the faintly glowing weapon in Zhong Ye's hand, there was no light source in front of them.

Logically speaking, it is forbidden to enter the area with damaged lights, but now it seems that Zhong Ye did not take the prohibition set up by the administrator of the 'market' seriously.

The shimmering light on the long knife comes from [Sun Blessing]. According to the system description, "any skill will have a light attribute", but in fact, according to Zhong Ye's own feeling, his system description should be the same as that of other players. of.

The power of [Sun Blessing] can only be drawn out when other players use their skills, but Zhong Ye himself rarely relies on the system, whether in combat or training, he uses his own power.

So he can use his own will to guide the power of [Sun Blessing], and in the eyes of players, only the 'natives' can do this.

——Although the player can do this if he puts in the effort himself.

It's just that for the vast majority of players, "Echo of Soul" is just a game, and who will work hard to study the power they "master" in the game?Isn't it enough to leave everything to the system?
No player would be idle thinking about the 'extraordinary power' that appears in a game, because it doesn't exist in real life, so it's meaningless to think about it.

Not only can Zhong Ye make the long knife glow, he can also make his own body glow, but it would be stupid to let the body glow and illuminate, if it is not necessary, he will not do it.

The three walked into the interior of the metal building, and after passing through that corridor, they seemed to have come to a new area.

The corridor was still extending to the distance, but doors began to appear on both sides.

There was something behind those doors, and Zhong Ye didn't try to open them. If it could be opened, the owner of this metal building might have opened it long ago.

He vaguely remembered the time when the player who entered the metal building with other players but split into two groups in front of the hall door entered the hall—the abnormality didn't happen until more than ten minutes after that player entered the hall.

And it took them a few minutes to walk here from the hall.

With such a short distance, the owner of the 'bazaar' must have explored here, and Zhong Ye did not waste his efforts.

The corridor was very silent, except for the sound of breathing and footsteps, there was no third sound.

If there is a third voice suddenly coming out at this time, it will definitely be very scary...

"The air is getting dull."

Zhong Ye spoke suddenly, startling both Lily and Lilian, and the audience in the live broadcast room also tweeted [Scared to death].

His heart was pounding, almost jumping out of his throat.

Lilian swallowed, "Old, teacher, next time you speak, don't be so, so sudden, scare, scare me to death!"

Lily also nodded, "Next time...forget it, even if you remind us, you will still scare us. By the way, the 'air is dull' you mentioned just now..."

"Flowing water doesn't rot, door hinges don't rot, and once the air doesn't circulate, it will become dull." Zhong Ye pretended to turn his head to look at the walls on both sides, "When we walked over before, we didn't feel this way, but from the feet As far as Cheng is concerned, we should have entered the depths of this building a long time ago, but until now, I feel that the air has begun to become dull. Does this mean that there is something that can replace the air on the previous road, but there is nothing here? Or is it broken?"

Lily Lieber was a little confused by what Zhong Ye said, but Lilian knew what Zhong Ye was talking about as soon as she heard it.

——Isn’t this the ventilation system?
Logically speaking, since there is a ventilation system on the road ahead, there should be one here too, but the ventilation system here is damaged, right?

The ventilation system is damaged, but there is still oxygen. This means that the damage to the ventilation system has not been long?

Lilian knew it well, but she couldn't explain it to Zhong Ye and Lily Lieber, this feeling made her a little uncomfortable.

After saying this, Zhong Ye's irises lit up a little more, and after a while, Lilian suddenly felt her breathing became smoother.

Lilian felt a little strange, raised her hand to touch it, but found nothing around her face, "Teacher, is this 'spiritual energy'?"

"Yes." Zhong Ye nodded.

Although it hasn't been long since he awakened his psionic powers, his steely willpower allowed him to possess quite powerful psionic powers from the very beginning.

'Psychic Power' made up for his lack of long-range combat effectiveness, and also gave him the ability to fight in the air - he only needs to condense a piece of air under his feet, and he can run and turn in the air.

The technique he uses now can also be used underwater.

As long as he can filter out the air and keep him in a 'breathing' state, even underwater, he still has a strong enough fighting ability.

But there is no need to use other abilities now, the area right now is 'dead', he doesn't feel the slightest breath of 'live', there should be no enemies.

Even so, Zhong Ye remained vigilant and used spiritual energy to protect the three of them.

As they moved forward, Zhong Ye noticed that there was a breeze blowing around them.

These breezes did not come from the ventilation system, but from his own technique—the oxygen content in the air was getting less and less, and if he wanted to extract enough oxygen, he needed to absorb more air.

Do you want to move on?
Zhong Ye frowned slightly. They felt that it was difficult to move forward when they came here. How did that player get so deep here?

Before the breeze blew, Zhong Ye noticed the footprints in the distance.

On the dust deposited on the ground, a row of footprints spread to the depths of the building. Even with a player's physique, he should feel dull in such a place.

despair……

"Stop!" Zhong Ye suddenly said.

Even though they were mentally prepared, Lily and Lilian were still taken aback.

Mixed with the sound of wind and breathing, that slight sound of footsteps——

despair……

"There's something ahead!"

Lily Lieber looked suspiciously, and in the dim light, she could only see a corner, and there was nothing in front of her.

"It's not that corner, it's behind that." Zhong Ye took a light breath, "—there are footsteps."

Lily turned her head stiffly, forced a smile, and said in a trembling voice, "...Zhong, don't scare me."

"I didn't scare you, there were indeed footsteps, and they were approaching."

Zhong Ye closed his eyes, listening to the footsteps from a distance.

He didn't advance or retreat, but this made Lily and Lilian feel a little courage.

Zhong Ye didn't feel scared, nor did he tell them to retreat, what does this mean?
It means that the enemy is still within the range that Zhong Ye can deal with... At most, at most, it looks a little ugly and disgusting, so it shouldn't be particularly scary!

Lilian and the others mustered up their courage again, and looked around the corner.

But looking at it, sweat flowed from their temples.

——This is a 'corner', even if the shape of the thing is not scary, if it suddenly emerges from the corner, it will still be scary!
"Teacher, why don't we retreat a little further?" Lilian moved and hid herself behind Zhong Ye's tall body.

"No, it's here."

Zhong Ye opened his eyes, and just after he finished speaking, the clear footsteps that even Lilian could hear sounded.

It was very faint at first, mixed with the sound of breathing, as long as you don't pay attention, it's hard to hear, but soon, the footsteps became louder, and the speed of getting louder was getting faster and faster!

That means, 'it' came running!
- 'It' found them!

Lilian swallowed nervously, not even daring to blink, for fear that something would suddenly appear in front of her in the blink of an eye.

- Boom!

After a sound, a black shadow sprang out from the corner!

Lily and Lilian screamed at the right time, Zhong Ye lowered his waist and retracted his arms, shielded the long knife in front of him, and then slashed out!
