Lin Sanjiu didn't recognize the place he was in at all.
It had been a while since she woke up. She stood in the cold wind a little dazedly, not knowing what all this was going on. Nothing made sense - she tried to list the things that happened before downloading the dungeon one by one.
came out, 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; milky white smoke continuously leaked out from the exploded crack for several minutes.
Lin Sanjiu, who was still very wary at first, soon discovered that once the "milk" flowed into the outside air, it seemed to be diluted, losing its original characteristics, and involuntarily dissipated in the cold wind. Occasionally, it was
The little bit she accidentally breathed in only caused her mind to wander for a moment, and it didn't have any major impact.
The rough, cold rocks pressed heavily on both sides of her body, as if they could close at any time and swallow Lin Sanjiu. The gaps between the stone walls were narrow and irregular, making the bone wings on her back a big headache.
No matter how hard she tried to adjust the angle of the bone wings, she always felt uncomfortable. The only spacious space was where the flesh cavity was: it was as if a pocket had been carved out of the stone wall, and the flesh cavity was in the right position.
The advantage is that it is in the center and leaves a circle of open space around it.
Lin Sanjiu stopped looking up long ago - according to her evolved eyesight, the stone wall stretched to the end of her sight, and then a light white line was drawn above her head; when she looked up for the first time, she
It took me a few seconds to realize that this line turned out to be an extremely distant sky.
Sighing, she groped the stone wall and took a few steps forward. The gaps between the stones were covered with a thin layer of soil. From this thin nutrition, several sparse dark green leaves emerged, which looked like
Just like the person in the flesh cavity, it seems that he is about to die.
She obviously followed the members of the Smiling Mermaid into a dungeon - yet why she woke up in a flesh cavity under the abyss, Lin Sanjiu had no clue.
The smashed flesh cavity leaked out a sticky and slippery liquid, and the soles of the shoes made a "gurgling, gurgling" sound with every step. Under the thin and dim skylight, the flesh cavity was originally so fascinating.
The deep red flesh color of the sour teeth gradually withered, turning into a dying dark brown - no matter what kind of thing it was, Lin Sanjiu's blow sent it to a dead end.
Moving people out was much more difficult than she thought - although a few people looked healthy, most of them had been exhausted due to long-term coma and lack of nutrition.
When Lin Sanjiu was trying to pick up a girl, he accidentally brushed her thigh. With a "click", the girl's leg bone detached from her pelvis, leaving only one layer.
Thin dry yellow skin, connecting the legs and body.
Maybe these people would wake up slowly after there was no more "milk", but Lin Sanjiu didn't plan to wait here until that moment. There were about thirty or forty people rescued from the flesh cavity, and they were all carefully saved by her.
Put it on the corridor; after doing all this, she found water from the card library and fed everyone some. Then, she stepped on the pitiful open space between the human bodies, like a ballerina
, Lin Sanjiu walked with some difficulty towards the depths of the stone wall.
On the other side, where the light is slightly brighter and the terrain is slightly higher, there is only a dead end of dirt and rocks within two hours of walking. Although Lin Sanjiu is very reluctant, the only way out is the front.
The front is dark and steep, and the gaps between the stones are getting narrower and narrower.
This is the most uncomfortable "road" that Lin Sanjiu has ever walked. At a distance of several thousand meters from the ground, in a gap that is somehow separated deep in the rock layer, there is enough to make anyone sick.
Feeling claustrophobic, Lin Sanjiu struggled in the narrow, dark space and walked for who knows how long.
At first, she was just confused and a little worried; but later, all she felt was hatred for the bone wings behind her - the bumps and friction were just minor things, and some places were so narrow that they did not allow for the huge bone wings.
Passing; just like forcing her limbs to an impossible angle, Lin Sanjiu gritted her teeth and endured the pain to open and stretch the bone wings, and sometimes even folded them. Even she herself didn't know how she finally squeezed through -
—But fortunately, no one could hear her screams of pain in such a deep underground.
Just before she thought she was about to break off the bone wings and throw them away, the space between the stone walls finally gradually became wider - the light became brighter and brighter, the corridor became wider and wider, and the slope extended further and higher.
, After crawling on hands and knees for several hours, Lin Sanjiu found that he had returned to the ground.
The noisy human voices, the occasional engine sound of the spaceship passing through the sky, and the roaring and muffled noise of unknown origin, flooded into her ears along with thousands of other sounds. For a moment, she almost suspected that she had returned from hell to the human world.
.
...Two huge full moons hang down on countless dilapidated buildings with hundreds of floors, divided into countless pieces by layers of overlapping wires. The bustling flow of people is surrounded by noisy sounds, filling every place illuminated by lights.
, or corners that cannot be illuminated.
She seems to still be in the cyber zone.
There was obviously a deep hole in the ground, but for passers-by, it seemed that an abyss in the middle of the road had become a common thing; the place where Lin Sanjiu crawled out was only surrounded by a yellow belt
It was just a circle to warn people not to fall in. When she came out, her skin was scratched with blood by the hard rock, and her head, face, and limbs were covered with dirt and dust, and everything in her body was painful - but
No one looked at her twice.
Lin Sanjiu endured the pain and found the map.
"...It's so strange, why are we back here again?" After staring at the map for a while, Teacher Yi in my 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 spanning most of the cyber area, which was named "Grand Canyon" by the people here, like a scar.
It was also shown on the map. One end of the "Grand Canyon" was a wasteland, and Lin Sanjiu was at the other end near the business district - she had already seen it once when she looked out the window of the appraiser's house.
"Grand Canyon".
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.
Ever since I lost that copy of "Girl's Sorrow," nothing has made sense or connected.
Lin Sanjiu rubbed the map irritably, then paused because she thought of the red crystals on the map. "I don't know -" she was a little annoyed, "but no matter who it is or what it is,
If something hurts me, let’s count today as their lucky day—I’m going to buy a boat ticket now.”
Although she is kind, she is not stupid - when a dozen medium crystals fell out of a person she was taking out of her body, Lin Sanjiu knew that her ticket was no longer a problem.
Although the money was not taken very righteously, even Teacher Yi, who has always had a relatively high moral standard, agreed that perhaps the comatose people under the abyss need drinking water more than red crystals.
"But... what about the copy that is devouring the red nautilus? Don't you care about it anymore?" Teacher Yi was not so easy to talk to this time.
"I can't ignore this," Lin Sanjiu admitted, "But where is this copy?"
"You clearly know that, just smiling at the mermaid——"
"Logically speaking, I should also be in the territory of the Smiling Mermaid." She interrupted Teacher Yi's unfinished words. "However, I was here after I woke up."
Teacher Yi didn't speak for a long time, and after a while he said in a low voice: "Then... maybe it's because the copy was swallowed here..."
"I can't see any difference from before."
"That's because Sajie said -" As soon as Teacher Yi said this, he himself was stunned for a moment, and then stopped.
Lin Sanjiu smiled slightly, but there was not much smile in her eyes. "...Yes, Sajie said it all. We entered the dungeon with her, but she was not in that flesh cavity."
That girl with a very abnormal appearance must have known something, but she didn't tell Lin Sanjiu and her group.
"When I meet Lou Ye and the others, I will come back to investigate Saje with the help of the Growers Alliance." She whispered to herself as she walked towards the spacecraft login point. "Before I find that woman, I have no choice but to
I hope the forces of the Red Nautilus can be smarter and not let things develop beyond control."
——Maybe this idea is not so unreliable; until Lin Sanjiu walked into the spaceship login point where people were passing through, and stood in front of the electronic information board and looked at it for a long time.
She clearly remembered that the Smiling Mermaid had obtained relevant information about "Swallowing Copies", but there was no clue about this matter from the "Cyber Current Affairs".
News such as "Returning Successfully", "12 New Doomsday World Information Entry Systems", "Someone purchased special plant items at a high price".
"What's going on..." Lin Sanjiu frowned and couldn't think of a reason. Shaking her head, she strode towards the ticket counter and merged into the flow of people coming and going.
After the tall woman dragging the bone wing left, the young girl who sold the tickets looked down at her electronic information board and once again browsed the visa auction prices four months later. For a D-level world, her bid
Sure enough, it was still too low; just when she sighed and didn't know what to do, she felt another figure coming to the ticket counter.
"Hello," the young girl raised her head and smiled semi-professionally, and then her voice froze in her throat.
This woman's eyes are like two deep dry wells without any white. Even though she sees hundreds of strange people every day, there is something special and unhuman about this woman that makes the young girl unable to help herself.
Shivered.
As if she realized something was wrong with her, the woman wrapped in a thick scarf looked down at the reflection on the metal countertop, and then raised her head again. This time, the whites of her eyes appeared; it seemed that she pinched the black eyeball hard,
Finally the whites of her eyes were exposed, she blinked hard and smiled.
"Where is the sister with Bone Wings just now? I want a ticket to go there too."
