Chapter 68 The Wind in the Darkness

By the time Ye Xuan got out of the elevator car after a lot of effort, the sound of fighting above had disappeared and everything was quiet again.

In the darkness, there seemed to be the sound of something swimming by, hissing, making people shudder.

Ye Xuan frowned and used his tactical flashlight to look around the space, only to find that there was nothing else in the huge elevator shaft except for the many steel cables that drove the elevator car. And not far above the car where he was, there was

There was another elevator car, but that car was hanging there crookedly and seemed to be crumbling. The car under my feet also seemed to be crumbling.

When Ye Xuan was thinking about where Caesar and the others were going, a more violent earthquake than before suddenly erupted. The whole building seemed to be shaken and shook violently, and the elevator swayed and twisted.

"Boom!" The cable that stabilized the car broke due to the earthquake, making a dull sound.

Ye Xuan's expression changed, and then he felt a sense of weightlessness, causing him to fall towards the dark elevator shaft below along with the elevator car under his feet.

At the critical moment, he bit the flashlight, held Surtur's sword hilt behind his back, and thrust the sword blade into the wall next to him, letting himself rise into the air and hang in mid-air.

"Bang~bang!"

The elevator car fell rapidly, and the car walls rubbed against the slide rails and brought up four strings of sparks. After a few seconds, it fell into darkness, making a huge noise.

The earthquake continued. Ye Xun grabbed Surtur's sword hilt with both hands to stabilize his body. He put his feet against the slightly protruding edge of the wall and lowered his head to look at the dark space below.

Playing with the heartbeat was a little too much, Ye Xuan thought to herself, luckily she ran out, otherwise she would have fallen down like the three people in the elevator and turned into a puddle of mud.

After taking a long breath, Ye Xuan tightened his palms, which were a little wet. It seemed that the thrilling situation just now made him sweat a little.

At this moment, Ye Xun was hanging on the wall like a bat, and when the earthquake did not subside, Ye Xun did not dare to move anyway. He did not want to follow the footsteps of the elevator.

"Bah~"

A harsh friction sound sounded not far above his head. Ye Xuan immediately looked up. The elevator over there was slowly falling under the influence of huge friction. But in an instant, the elevator lost its friction and became unrestrained.

The wild horse is rushing downwards under the influence of gravity.

"F*ck!" Ye Xun almost yelled, and quickly adjusted his posture to ensure that he would not be hit by the falling car. Then Ye Xun watched the elevator car pass by not far in front of him, and then sparks flew all the way.

It crashed below with lightning and made a huge noise.

This is so damn exciting...

Ye Xuan thought silently. Fortunately, the earthquake gradually subsided. Before the next wave of aftershocks arrived, it was time to consider how to leave this ghost place.

Otherwise, your hands won't be able to hold on for long.

Ye Xuan bit the flashlight and turned it around, trying to find the nearest elevator hall door that would allow him to enter the floor.

There! Ye Xuan saw a door about four or five meters below him and the angle steel beams between each elevator, and his heart was shaken.

He immediately freed up one hand to reach for the steel cable closest to him that connected the upper and lower diameters of three centimeters, and pulled hard to make sure it could bear his own weight.

After making sure that everything was correct, Ye Xun pulled out the Surtel plugged into the wall and swung his whole body onto the steel cable, fixing himself on the steel cable like an acrobat.

Next, just slide down slowly and approach the door.

Ye Xuan sheathed the knife and looked at the slightly reflective elevator hall door under the flashlight. A sharp pain hit her palm. It was the gravitational potential energy that the hand that just grabbed the steel cable suffered when it swung over.

It was too big, causing it to slide down a certain distance.

Moreover, the surface of the steel cable is very rough, which is easy to grasp, but it is also easy to wear and tear the skin. Judging from the pain, the palm of the hand must have been bruised and bloody.

Feeling a little unlucky, Ye Xun shook his head, resisted the pain, and decided to go down little by little. Although Caesar and the others were still missing, he thought it wouldn't be a big problem if the three of them were together, and Lu Mingfei

Now, if you meet the Dragon King, you will be able to fight.

Instead of worrying about others, it is better to worry about yourself first. Ye Xun sighed. The pain in his palm continued. Every time he touched it, it hurt so much that Ye Xun took a breath of cold air and his whole face became a little distorted.

But there is no way. In order to survive, he can only do this. He can't fly, so he can't spread his wings and float in the air...

Wait a minute... fly?

Ye Xuan seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and looked up at the darkness above. If he remembered correctly, the steel cable he was holding should be the traction rope of an elevator car below, responsible for driving the car.

It moves up and down, and at the very top of the elevator shaft, there are the traction wheels and guide wheels of the elevator.

The two ends of the traction rope are connected to the car and the counterweight respectively, and are wound around the traction sheave and the guide wheel. The traction motor drives the traction sheave to rotate after changing speed through the reducer. The traction force generated by the friction between the traction rope and the traction sheave,

Realize the lifting and lowering movement of the car and counterweight to achieve transportation purposes.

In other words, as long as he grabs and cuts the steel cable, the steel cable will carry him upward, just like a pulley. When the weight on one end is not enough, the counterweight on the other end will drop.

The objects at this end will rise relatively.

Although I don't know what's up there, I still want to go up there and have a look. Maybe Yuan Zhisheng and the others are able to counterattack and block Caesar and the three of them up there, which will cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Ye Xun made up his mind. He immediately pulled out Surtur and struck the steel cable with his sword, cutting the cable without any hindrance.

While cutting the steel cable, the lower section quickly disappeared into the darkness, and before Ye Xuan could take a breath, the whole person was carried away towards the darkness above by the rapidly rising upper section of the steel cable.

"What the hell..." Before Ye Xuan could curse, the figure disappeared in the sound of wind.



On a certain floor of Genji Heavy Industries, the closed elevator door was slowly pushed open from the inside by two hands, revealing a gap only for one person to pass through.

Ye Xuan drew the knife with his right hand and inserted Surtur into the white and smooth floor, so that he could have a force to rely on.

Fortunately, Surtur was extremely sharp and could cut through any metal, otherwise the crisis just now would have given him a good drink.

Regardless of the blood dripping from his right hand, Ye Xuan pulled himself up with all his strength, and then his whole body collapsed on the ground.

He was really tired. From the beginning of the earthquake to now, more than ten minutes had passed, and Ye Xun had not relaxed at all. His whole body was tense all the time, plus the mental effort it took to run out of the elevator shaft.

Ye Xuan just wants to have a good rest now. It is best to have a cup of Feizhai Happy Water to quench his thirst. If not, juice will be fine...

Then, with his eyes half closed, he saw a pair of round and plump legs standing behind his head. Looking up, he could only see a pair of long legs wearing a tight black leather jacket.

What a long lamp...no, what a beautiful leg!

Hmm? Long legs?

Ye Xuan woke up immediately, only to see Jiude Mai's face appearing not far above him.

It turned out to be senior Mai, and Ye Xun breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he had met some female ninja from the Sheqiba family.

"Good evening, Mai-senpai -_-||!" Ye Xuan raised his right hand to greet the owner of the long legs, but he was still lying on the ground and didn't want to move.

"I don't think you look very good." Jiude Mai chuckled softly, looking at Ye Xun's embarrassed look, she was a little surprised. She had never seen Ye Xun in such a mess.

"Oh~ stop talking, I suspect God is targeting me tonight..."

After taking a short rest, Ye Xun slowly sat up. Senior sister Mai next to him also stretched out his hand to help Ye Xun straighten and let him lean against the wall on one side.

"Well, by the way, why did you come in here, Senior Mai?" Looking at the enchanting girl sitting next to him, Ye Xuan looked curious. He didn't remember that he had notified Mai Jiude.

However, considering that Mai Shutoku is Lu Mingfei's protective nanny and must have been monitoring his movements, it is not surprising that she joined Genji Heavy Industries.
