The steps extend from the foot to the 1700th floor.
There are new changes there.
Starting from the 1700th floor, the walls of the corridors are covered with gray and black slender tentacles, which block the path downwards and occasionally squirm to reveal the steps extending downward.
In the strange blood-red scene, the wriggling slender tentacles resemble the entrance to hell.
We haven't reached the end yet, there is still a road below. But if he wants to get there, Lu Li has to pass through several levels of tentacle space.
If we use the prompts on the wall as a reference and regard these slender tentacles as parents checking the learning progress, and each time floor is 30 minutes, then the parents' checking time may be between 30 minutes and 60 minutes.
Maybe only one or two floors.
Lu Li continued downward.
The densely packed slender tentacles were getting closer and closer. They seemed to be squirming unconsciously and swaying with the wind, indifferent to Lu Li's approach.
Finally, Lu Li successfully stood in front of the tentacle entrance. He flicked his wrist and waved his dagger tentatively across the edge of the tentacle——
The sharp dagger passed through the slender tentacles, penetrating straight through like a phantom.
Weapons are ineffective against them.
Sensing the attack, a piece of lazily fluttering tentacles suddenly extended, and more than a dozen slender tentacles turned into afterimages and rushed toward Lu Li.
Lu Li came to his senses, raised his arms and used a round shield to protect the direction of their attack.
But because he was distracted, he still slowed down for a moment. Unexpectedly, a pale face with a smile suddenly appeared around Lu Li, blocking the invasion of the slender tentacles.
Lu Li frowned and looked at the pale face that protected him like a protective shield.
If the slender tentacles represent parental inspection, then they represent...the knowledge one has received.
Lu Li stepped forward and walked straight into the space composed of wriggling tentacles.
The slender tentacles moved the whole body, but were blocked by the pale faces that kept emerging. After taking a few steps back, a resistance came from under the feet, and countless muddy and withered hands stretched out from the ground of the steps and grabbed Lu Li.
Cold light flashed, and the neatly cut muddy withered claws fell to the ground.
The weapons and armor represent his physical strength.
Lu Li's expression was calm and composed, and his squirming tentacles, which were as dense as weeds, were blocked by his pale face. He waved his sword and shield and strode downwards, his steps unwavering.
Lu Li's figure was submerged in the tentacle space, and time gradually passed...
Suddenly, a slender figure wearing a black coat suddenly emerged from the weed-like tentacles.
He was extremely close to the exit in an emergency, but at this moment, a certain tentacle entangled his arm. The dagger was swung away, rolled up by the tentacle, and the shield was thrown away, and was entangled by the tentacle.
With no other choice, Lu Li had no choice but to let go of his dagger and shield, as well as the black coat entangled by the tentacles. He only held the necessary oil lamp and struggled to free himself from the sea of tentacles.
1800 floors.
There are numbers on the wall in front of you.
Lu Li turned around, and the restless tentacle space swallowed up his belongings. At the same time, it calmed down because of his departure. It was like seaweed swaying in the breeze just like it was at the beginning.
Lu Li passed through the tentacle space.
In other words, the little boy passed the inspection of his parents.
"Tsk..."
Lu Li clicked his tongue softly to commemorate the black trench coat that left him.
He had an intuition in his heart that he had already passed the most dangerous part of this endless staircase.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Li, who was standing on the 1800th floor, looked down.
The stairs changed again, becoming darker and deeper.
The color of the wall changed from the original blood red to dark red, and the restlessness brought by the red gradually dissipated, replaced by indescribable depression.
Floor 1800...it's almost getting dark.
Still can't open it.
The only thing that hasn't changed is the broken and messy reminders on the dark red walls.
In the darkness where he could still see things for the time being, Lu Li restarted his steps and moved to the next point in time.
Floor 1830
【Good night】
The broken writing on the wall was suddenly mixed with an unrelated greeting.
Lu Li tried to piece it together into a complete sentence, but the content was specious.
This simple farewell appears on the wall, but it is like a bloody death knell, ready to sound at any time.
As Lu Li moves downwards, the proportion of "Good Night" on the wall is increasing.
On the 1900th floor, Lu Li encountered the table again, but it was empty and there was nothing placed on it.
On the 2000th floor, Lu Li heard an old friend here - saying that something was wrong.
Because that was something Lu Li couldn't listen to.
The sounds of laughter and laughter came from far to near, then from near to far, until they disappeared. Lu Li once again waited for them to completely disappear before he put down the palms covering his ears.
Not being careless is one of the reasons why Lu Li is still alive today.
On the 2030th floor, the dark red color of this space becomes deeper, and Good Night takes up most of the wall.
Floor 2100…
Good night good night good night good night good night good night good night good night.
Good night is written on the walls, ceiling, steps, and everything within sight in different handwritings.
The dense goodnights of different sizes and arrangements spread on the walls and floors, extending all the way into the invisible darkness below.
It's time to go to sleep and it's time to turn off the lights, and then naturally there will be no light.
On the wall on the 2100th floor, a door was open, and behind the door was the same darkness.
[Avoid staying up late, it is your biggest enemy, health is more important than you think]
The hints he learned on the first floor emerged in Lu Li's mind.
Obviously, if you continue to travel downward, you will enter the period of staying up late. After entering the door, it will be closely related to sleep, and perhaps also the exit.
Or a dead end.
Lu Li looked behind the dark and silent door, and then toward the deep and empty downstairs. There was something uncomfortable in the breeze blowing from below.
It seems to be the salty sea breeze, it seems to be a whisper, it seems to be the sound of shaking iron chains...
Lu Li decided to follow the prompts and go to "sleep".
At least so far, the reminders on the wall have not harmed me.
Lu Li had no reason not to continue to believe the prompts.
Staring deeply at the abyss-like staircase, Lu Li walked into the door on the 2100th floor, his body fell into darkness and disappeared.
In the boundless darkness, Lu Li moved forward silently. In front of his sight, a hazy spot of light gradually appeared and quickly enlarged.
【This is the most ordinary day】
That spot of light turned out to be a row of handwriting emitting a milky white light, and as Lu Li approached, its original appearance was revealed.
Lu Li looked forward and saw spots of light distributed at regular intervals.
At the end of the line of sight, a white space stands out in the darkness.
【Don't be upset, don't be discouraged】
[The road ahead is long and distant, and a better world is waiting for you after becoming the same.]
[Whether it is good or bad depends on your initial decision and efforts]
As Lu Li walked through the sentences, the white space in front of him gradually became clearer, revealing its true appearance: a pure white space that was incompatible with the surrounding darkness, and a clean bed was located in the middle.
One foot stepped into this space, and then the other. Lu Li walked into this white space.
He walked to the bed, turned over and climbed into bed. Feeling sleepy, he fell into a deep sleep.
In the light in the boundless darkness, Lu Li's breathing gradually became calmer.
The last two words rang in my heart.
【So now, have a good rest】
[The existence of eternal sleep in the deep sea awaits you to enter your dream]
