In the deep and silent sewer, Ling Mo and Xu Shuhan clung to the corner, looking nervously ahead. In just a few seconds, all the surrounding sounds seemed to be amplified. The sound came from the mud under their feet.
The sound of bubbling water, the vague sound of dripping water in the distance, and even some subtle noises whose origins cannot be explained... At this moment, a particularly clear soft sound suddenly came from the darkness——
"Crack!"
Xu Shuhan was stunned for a moment, then raised her eyelids and glanced upward. Although she couldn't see Ling Mo's expression from this angle, she could feel Ling Mo's slight breath blowing to the top of her head.
At the same time, his arms seemed to tighten a little, causing his palms to press tightly against her lips.
"It's surprisingly warm, and you can feel the flow of blood through the skin... Being so close, his heartbeat can be heard from behind... Is the temperature of the human body so high?" Xu Shuhan began involuntarily.
I was having wild thoughts, but I quickly pulled myself back from my delusions...
"No, no! It doesn't matter whether it's biting or licking! Calm down!" Xu Shuhan pursed her lips hard, her chest kept rising and falling, and her eyes also glanced in the direction of the sound, "What the hell is that?
What! If you don’t show up again, I won’t be able to hold on anymore!”
Ling Mo, who was staring into the darkness, obviously didn't notice her changes. As the "click" sound appeared again, he calmly pressed Xu Shuhan's shoulder, and then squatted on the ground with her.
"Eh..."
At first, she thought Ling Mo wanted to hide. But this section of the sewer was simply a straight line. There seemed to be no hiding place in front or behind. Even if he squatted on the spot, he would at most be a narrow target, rather than completely destroying himself.
Hidden. But after squatting down, Xu Shuhan discovered with some embarrassment that his thoughts were indeed a bit too straightforward...
Ling Mo's breathing gradually became evener in her ears, and then she felt keenly that there seemed to be an extremely weak energy fluctuation around her. When she followed the fluctuation and looked to the ground, she found Ling Mo's
His fingers were hanging in the air on the mud.
"It turns out that he wants to secretly detect the front...does he need to use the cover of silt? But in this way, the difficulty of detection should be much greater, right?" Xu Shuhan thought for a while, and took a gentle breath, "Left
The closer to the ground, the clearer the sounds I can hear will become..."
"Pap..."
The frequency of this sound came very slowly, but the volume rose very quickly. At first, it was just like the chirping of insects, but after a few steps, it was like something stepping heavily on the mud. Just listening to the sound, you can tell that no matter what
Whoever came was definitely not Yu Wenxuan.
What about Yu Wenxuan? He should have been walking in front of them, but now there is a "thing" coming from the direction where he disappeared... Has he encountered this "thing"? If so, what is his current situation?
how?
Xu Shuhan frowned, but couldn't ask anything at this time. Judging from Ling Mo's reaction, he seemed to be very calm, but as time passed, she felt that Ling Mo's palm seemed to be hotter than before...
…
Ling Mo held his breath and waited quietly... The tentacle was hidden less than thirty meters away from them. As long as the other party walked to that position, he could immediately launch an attack according to the situation. But in fact, for zombies or
For humanoids, thirty meters is enough to see the scene in front of them clearly. However, when they maintain a crouching position, the opponent will definitely react a beat slower than Xu Shuhan. This is determined by the difference in perspective.
"Come on..." Ling Mo adjusted his mental state and stared there...
"Pap..."
The sound quickly approached within a few dozen meters. In such a quiet environment, the sound seemed to ring directly in the ears of Ling Mo and the two of them. He even had a feeling that the sound was coming from behind.
The depressing and gloomy environment that comes from here will always affect people's judgment. In fact, this is one of the greatest weaknesses of human beings...
"Crack!"
Just then, the sound suddenly stopped.
"Why aren't you moving!" Ling Mo's pupils shrank.
He could feel that the other party was standing in the darkness, looking towards them from a distance of about forty meters. And his tentacles were waiting for the other party ten meters away. But at this moment, he came
People stopped moving.
Did it find them?
"No...if I didn't know someone was here in advance, I wouldn't have noticed this corner so quickly. The air in the sewer is so turbid, and the visibility is not that high at all...And if it was discovered, it should
He would rush over and attack...why..." Countless thoughts went through Ling Mo's mind in the blink of an eye, then he gritted his teeth, suddenly let go and stood up.
And the moment he stood up, something unexpected happened!
"Crack, snap, snap!"
The voice suddenly changed direction and returned along the original path!
"Holy shit!"
Ling Mo was stunned immediately... This is a joke! He hasn't done anything yet! This guy's crisis response is too strong!
Xu Shuhan was also a little dumbfounded. What is going on? Only hearing his voice but not seeing his person? At least show his face!
"Chasing?" Xu Shuhan raised her head and asked. She also knew that this question was a bit redundant. Regardless of chasing or not, they had to go in this direction...
Ling Mo gritted his teeth and nodded: "Chase!"
First, Shana and the corpse puppet were led down, then Yu Wenxuan, and finally he and Xu Shuhan... "I want to see what is causing trouble!" Ling Mo whispered angrily.
"Are you making trouble..." Xu Shuhan was a little worried, but after thinking about it for a while, she still didn't say anything, but silently raised her hand to wipe the corners of her mouth.
"What's wrong with you?" Ling Mo caught a glimpse and asked casually.
This time you noticed it!
Xu Shuhan was speechless for a moment...it was rare to have a heightened sense of presence, but why couldn't he be happy at all?
"Nothing..." Could it be possible to tell you that I was wiping my saliva!
"Hold on then." Fortunately, Ling Mo didn't ask any more questions. He twisted his neck, then sped up and chased after the voice.
Xu Shuhan followed closely, but her eyes slowly became a little complicated.
"What's down here? And those kind of monsters, where did they come from, and how do they survive here..." The constant "clicking" sound in front of them covered up the sound of the two of them running.
Just feeling his feet constantly stepping down and pulling up in the mud, the uneasiness in Xu Shuhan's heart became more and more intense...
