Returning from the abyss

Chapter 299
The water puddle unfolded in an instant, and it was connected to the water stains under the feet of everyone. Lu Ning felt that her feet were empty in an instant, and she fell down, but immediately a hand reached out to grab her arm.

Qin Yulou, Rong Han, and Xu Jianqi's reaction speed was extremely fast. Before Lu Ning shouted out, the three of them had already left their positions, and one by one, they grabbed the remaining three who hadn't had time to escape from the puddle. people.

"Come up!"

Lu Ning was pulled out of the puddle by Qin Yulou desperately, so she had time to take a look at the part where she sank—the ground in the area covered by the puddle seemed to have turned into mud, and the soaked clothes had already disappeared in such a short period of time. It becomes a porous structure like a sponge, absorbs a large amount of water, and becomes very heavy.

water……

Lu Ning immediately tore off the outer layer of trousers that were saturated with water. Fortunately, the erosion did not take long, and the inner fleece pants were only soaked through and had not changed their structure.But even so, the water continued to spread along the trail where Lu Ning was dragged out.

"We have to avoid the water!"

Cang Su and Ning Yeyi also quickly took off their corroded coats. Those clothes are now floating in the puddles, like huge sponges, completely unable to see the shape of the previous clothes.

"In this kind of environment, you said to avoid water?" Xu Jian stepped back repeatedly, trying to avoid the direction where the water stains spread.

"Yan Rong! Zhou Weiyuan, be careful of the puddles inside!" Lu Ning yelled into the lecture hall, and heard Yan Rong's reply from a distance, but it was not very clear.

At this moment, Rong Han snapped off the wooden plank used to keep out the rain on his leg, and threw a piece of wood into the puddle.

The wood started to float, but it wasn't transformed into a sponge like the clothes.

"This thing can only erode objects that sink into it. If it can float, it should be fine." Rong Han said calmly.

Everyone knows where to look for wood.

The six people ran directly into the lecture hall. The speed of the water puddle couldn't catch up with the running speed of humans, so they could only slowly move into the lecture hall along the water stains left behind.The mobility of the tourists was astonishing. The large wooden podium in the lecture hall was quickly dismantled into boards by several people who rushed in. At this time, Yan Rong and Zhou Weiyuan also appeared from the back door.

"What are you doing?" Yan Rong couldn't help asking when he saw the flustered movements of the crowd.

"There are monsters!" Cang Su said hastily.

"There is a monster, but it has been solved...Is there anything else?" Yan Rong immediately reacted.

And everyone was stunned when they heard her words.

Zhou Weiyuan immediately said: "We just encountered a monster that looks like a murloc that came out of the water near the outer railing at the back. Its fins are as sharp as a razor, but that's about it."

"It's not that kind of thing, water itself is the enemy!" Lu Ning hurriedly beckoned the two of them to come over, she had already seen the puddle at the door.

"So when you removed the wooden boards, did you realize that water can't corrode wood?" Zhou Weiyuan walked down the steps, reached out his hand and took out a soft white ball the size of a ping-pong ball from his pocket, and slowly approached the puddle.

Everyone held their breaths and watched Zhou Weiyuan's movements. He moved very slowly, roughly at the same speed as the water puddles spread. Just when the distance between the two sides was less than one meter, the water puddles suddenly stopped spreading into the lecture hall, and even began to slowly spread. move backwards.

"Hmm..." Zhou Weiyuan pondered for a moment, then walked a little forward, and sure enough, the puddle began to avoid him, and began to try to extend to both sides.

"We have to get out of here, rely on this thing." Zhou Weiyuan said.

"What's that?" Rong Han asked.

"It was dug out from that murloc's body. It can be said to be a fish bubble." Yan Rong had already walked up to him, and when he saw the appearance of Lu Ning and the other three, he knew they were under attack.

"Fish bubble?"

"Let's talk about the rest. Let's leave first. There is a dormitory area less than 50 meters southwest of the lecture hall. Although it is not our target location, it is definitely not safe here." Yan Rong patted Zhou Weiyuan on the shoulder, "Behind Keep up, don't fall behind."

At this moment, the crowd didn't care too much, they pushed up the wooden boards and gathered behind Zhou Weiyuan. The white ball blocked the water puddle with a radius of about one meter. It was no problem to include these people, and several people rushed out of the lecture hall together. , Sure enough, I didn't encounter any obstacles.

"Now let me tell you something." Yan Rong took out a patched small cloth bag from his pocket, "I found this thing from the murloc. It contained a few coins with strange patterns and A needle."

"A needle again?" Lu Ning frowned.

"That's right, but this one is full, and it's filled with red liquid. We haven't had time to verify what it is, but don't you feel familiar with this feeling?"

"Dropped items?" Ning Yeyi remembered that Yan Rong had been playing games before entering the scene.

"Bingo." Yan Rong snapped his fingers, "There are also many scenes in the distribution center that contain elements of game rules. I don't know if you have experienced it. This kind of scene can't really be treated as a game, but in Difficulties can be considered in this way.”

Although Lu Ning has never experienced this, she knows that the first scene that Shu Xingruo experienced was this type of "Double Six in Life", and Ning Yeyi also had a scene called "Devil Roulette" when he was in the first level. Such.

Obviously, most people have more experience than Lu Ning, which is not surprising.

"After Zhou Weiyuan and I killed the murloc, we saw a shadow in the sky in the distance, which is why we left quickly." Yan Rong continued, "Comparing the distance with the buildings near the shadow, it should be It is a humanoid monster with a height of nearly three meters, and its direction of travel is coming here. It is better to avoid this guy whose level is obviously different from the several crises we have encountered."

"In addition..." Zhou Weiyuan continued Yan Rong's words and added, "Since there is currency, there is a place for consumption. And the needle makes me suspect that it is a supplement for survival here. In other words, this scene may require a long line fight."

The scene time for tourists generally does not exceed one month, and it can be extended for about half a month at most. Scenes beyond this period are very rare in the first and second levels, which is the so-called "long-term battle."

The difficulty of this type of scene lies not only in its own puzzles and the strength of the enemies, but also in the fact that once there is a situation where the tail is too big to drop due to delays, it is generally recognized that tourists are in the best state when they enter the scene, and long-term combat means that tourists are almost trapped. desperate situation.

"Yes, there is no time limit in the mission." Qin Yulou nodded, "If we don't find a way to leave for a day, we may not be able to leave for a day."

"Tsk."

Many people are beginning to feel the pressure.

That's right, many monsters in the world of heavy rain are not strong at all, and they may even be a way to obtain resources, but no one will breathe a sigh of relief. The loser is gone.

Just as they were talking, everyone had already rushed to the dormitory building. Fortunately, they finally saw some good news.

Through the glass building door, you can see that the inside is blocked by piled tables, chairs and cabinets.

The door is blocked, which means that there are people here, at least there used to be people.Yan Rong threw away the wooden board that kept the rain away, ran directly to the security window next to him and began to climb up, and Rong Han followed closely and started to climb up from the other side.Both of them moved very quickly. Even under the heavy rain, they climbed to the height of the second floor in only 3 minutes. Many windows there were broken and they could easily climb in.

"Xiaoqi, throw the stick up for me!" Yan Rong yelled from the window on the second floor, and Xu Jianqi threw the stick in his hand upstairs. Yan Rong reached out to catch it firmly, and then moved With a start, he retracted his head.

"Okay, if there is no problem inside, the door will probably open in a while." Zhou Weiyuan said.

He didn't say what would happen if something went wrong.Since Zhou Weiyuan and Yan Rong knew each other before, it seems that they had full confidence to say these words.

Everyone hid under the eaves of the entrance and waited for Yan Rong and Rong Han. At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the night gradually covered the earth. In this campus full of monsters, the night became especially terrifying.

With the remaining light, Lu Ning also faintly recognized the shadow walking in the air that Yan Rong said from the rainstorm.It has a slender figure, and seems to have a huge cloak trailing behind it, fluttering completely unaffected by the rain, and there are many slender strips hanging down from the bottom of the cloak.It has an obvious human body and limbs, and it just walks quietly at a height of nearly 20 meters above the ground. Its direction is the water lecture hall, and there is an angle with the dormitory building here.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the monster in the sky, and they didn't realize that behind them, a skinny hand stretched out from the blocked door.It protruded from a cabinet blocking the door. It could be stretched very long, and it got out through a hole in the door. The sharp nails pointed at the Cangsu vest that was the innermost.

At this moment, a crossbow bolt flew out from the side of the corridor, hitting the elbow joint of the skinny arm. The huge force and the jagged point of the arrow immediately cut off the arm at the elbow, and the sound of the crossbow bolt being nailed to the cabinet was also alarmed. People at the door.

"who are you?"

Two people came out of the corridor, a man and a woman. The man was holding a slightly curved narrow sword in his hand, while the woman was holding a heavy crossbow nearly one meter long in both hands.

The eyes of the two were full of vigilance, and their postures were also in a state of alert.However, they got closer, and Lu Ning found that the two were not very old, about the same age as herself, and they were also wearing clothes with the school emblem of Hangdian University, but they were a little worn out.In addition to clothes, there are several straps on their bodies, hanging large and small packages.

"We are students of Hangdian University. We had a club meeting today, but as soon as we went out, we found ourselves in this kind of place." Zhou Weiyuan said.

"Oh? You are not afraid at all." The boy raised his eyebrows, "As far as students are concerned, the psychological quality is too good, right?"

"Fear can't solve the problem. From your clothes, you should be a senior? Can you tell us what's going on?"

The boy pursed his lips, discussed with the girl in a low voice, and then took out a small brown bottle from a cloth bag on the back of his waist, which contained a lot of pills.He carefully poured out six pills and counted them before he reached the hole in the door and said, "If you want to know something, eat this first. I have to verify that your identities are fine."

"What kind of medicine is this?" Zhou Weiyuan didn't pick it up, but just pulled Cang Su past without any trace and stood closest to the door.

"That's included in the information you'll only be told if you're on your pills. Or leave now! You're not welcome here—"

"Zijian, there are changes upstairs." The girl said suddenly, then threw the heavy crossbow behind her back and quickly ran to the stairs.The boy gave everyone at the door a hard look, put away the medicine, and ran upstairs with the girl.

"It's Yan Rong." Zhou Weiyuan was sure. He also took a look at the half of his arm that fell on the ground, stepped on it twice to make sure it wouldn't move, and then picked it up.

"Who is better at... autopsies?"

Lu Ning and Ning Yeyi came over to take the arms, and they checked each other according to their habits, and they were going to wait for the conclusion to be compared before comparing.

This arm is obviously no longer a human limb. There are no blood vessels or other structures inside, and even the bones are not in a normal state, but in a state like a spring strung together by countless tendons.Ning Yeyi tried it with the axe. Although it could be cut, but the toughness required a lot of pressure on the axe to prevent it from being bounced back.

Because of this, a weapon that can destroy this arm in one blow can be called powerful.There is no way to remove the arrow from this angle, but just from the almost shredded flesh and bones in the wound, it can be seen that the crossbow arrow is completely made for the purpose of tearing, the result of Lu Ning's final discussion with Ning Yeyi Yes, just relying on the power of this crossbow bolt to hit a person, unless it hits a limb, the hemorrhage caused by the tearing effect can quickly kill him.

"Are all the characters in the scene like this?" Zhou Weiyuan rested his chin and thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lu Ning is not particularly surprised. Even if the difference in time flow is counted, these people have lived here for a long time. To be able to survive in this world full of monsters, this quality alone is no better than the distribution center. The standard of tourists is poor, which is a conservative estimate.

At this moment, footsteps sounded in the corridor on the other side, Rong Han suddenly appeared in front of the door, made a small gesture to everyone, and began to clear the things at the door, after everyone reminded him of the cabinet Rong Han also checked, but there was nothing in the cabinet.

It's not too difficult to find a space where people can get in, but within 10 minutes, everyone entered the dormitory. During this period, there were intermittent fighting sounds and laughter from time to time. He could barely hear that it was Yan Rong.

"Let's go up and help. There are a group of people here. Yan Rong is not good at negotiating peacefully. We have to stop her before she messes things up." Zhou Weiyuan knew quite well what kind of person his friend was.
