Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 409: In the dark corridor

No.

Nowhere.

The wind on the top floor kept blowing at Ji Shanqing, and the coolness of the night soon made his cheeks numb with coldness; he reluctantly stretched his neck again to look into the distance, but all he could see was still devastation. Deserted city ruins.

Countless cars were frozen in the moment of the rampage, getting stuck in the broken shopping mall gates, breaking telephone poles, dozens of cars collided together, and were melted into a large iron block by the fire; the torn giant The advertisement rustled in the wind, and its stains of blood and charred blackness became the main colors that infected the city.

Farther away, buildings collapsed one after another. Several huge airplane fuselages were still stuck inside the building, covered with a thick layer of smoke residue and dust.

This was the first time Ji Shanqing saw the real end of mankind. After the initial confusion and shock subsided, he began to feel faintly anxious - because he did not see any "large-scale preventive measures" outside the community. "Shadow.

In fact, as several planes crashed into this area, the nearby high-rise buildings were broken and collapsed piece by piece due to the impact. This old-fashioned residential area with only ten floors became the highest point. Standing on the top floor, Ji Shanqing has taken in everything around him, but he still doesn't see any precautionary measures or even traces of human activity.

This means that the master’s worst guess is very likely to be true...

"What am I talking about?" At the same time that this thought came to his mind, Lin Sanjiu suddenly heard a self-deprecating sneer next to him: "...there is indeed something wrong with those two people. This is not the place at all. What base is there to protect civilians from the evolutionists?"

There was a slight breath in her voice. She didn’t know whether it was because she had just climbed up to the tenth floor in one breath or because of her excitement. While talking, Lin Sanjiu waved her hands and tried to call again. I visited [Flat World] once.

Under the intense gaze of the two. The shadow of a card flashed in her palm; but before their eyes could light up, the shadow suddenly disappeared like bubbles, leaving only Lin Sanjiu's pale palm.

Reluctantly, she called out several times, but she didn't call out anything, and even her shadow no longer appeared.

With a low roar like a trapped animal, the tall woman immediately buried her face in her hands and leaned on the railing of the top floor - "What should I do? All, all my abilities are gone!"

Ji Shanqing felt his mouth taste bitter. We also realized the seriousness of the problem.

...Lin Sanjiu lost it. It’s definitely not just a [flat world].

The reason why evolved people have physical qualities that are beyond ordinary people is because they have generated basic abilities such as [Physical Amplification] and [Eagle Eye]; on top of the basic abilities, they also have abilities like [Flat World] , [a shining ding in the sky] such advanced abilities.

...Once these abilities are gone. Lin Sanjiu was no different from the most ordinary, unevolved person. If anything, after undergoing numerous combat trainings, she is now stronger and faster than ordinary people, roughly equivalent to an athlete. But it still doesn’t break away from the scope of “ordinary people”.

"Don't worry," Ji Shanqing comforted her. While thinking rapidly in his mind: "...Isn't my ability still there? This means that there is something in this community or world that can only affect humans, but not objects. We just need to find out this factor. Definitely You can regain your abilities..."

Although what he said made sense, in fact, even he himself was not very sure - because he had thought about what happened in just a few hours tonight several times in private, and he still didn't find anything suspicious.

But these words immediately gave Lin Sanjiu a glimmer of hope. She raised her head suddenly and grabbed his arm with excitement: "Yes! Let's go back to find those two people from Mei Duo!"

Her nails dug deeply into Ji Shanqing's skin. He gripped him until it hurt. Although Ji Shanqing vaguely felt that going back was not a good idea, he just looked at his master's appearance and had no choice but to nod. Lin Sanjiu didn't seem to see or care about his reaction at all. She turned around and rushed out of the building door.

Sighing, before leaving, Ji Shanqing took one last look at the human ruins in the distance.

I always feel like something is not quite right, like something is missing...

He just frowned, and before he could trace the thoughts that flashed through his mind, he heard Lin Sanjiu impatiently shouting from behind him: "Follow me!"

"Coming, coming," Ji Shanqing responded hurriedly, putting aside his previous thoughts, and followed her downstairs.

This building is the same as several other residential buildings. There are tall cardboard boxes piled in every dark corridor, and there is a sour smell floating in the air, as if sweat has been covered for a long time. Fortunately, [Ability Polishing Agent] was never taken back after being called out - of course, it can't be taken back now - so Ji Shanqing held it in his hand, illuminating a small patch of land in front of him while supporting Lin San. Wine forward.

In the silent corridor, there was only the sound of two people's footsteps moving forward rustlingly, making the surroundings seem even quieter.

So when a sudden scream tore through the air, both of them were startled; before they could react, they heard another heavy "clang" of a security door. It shook violently, as if there was someone behind the door desperately banging against the door - and then, one after another, heart-rending, as if extremely sad cries, roughly and harshly penetrated the eardrums of the two of them. The sound echoed in the corridor.

"What's going on?" Seeing that the people inside wouldn't be able to get out for a while, Ji Shanqing frowned and hurriedly walked away from the door, "...Is there someone in the family who died?"

He didn't hear the reply and looked back at the owner.

I don’t know if it was because of the light of [Ability Polishing Agent], but Lin Sanjiu’s face was pale at this moment, her eyes were staring at him with a bit of confusion, and fine beads of sweat were oozing out on her forehead.

She looked as if...she suddenly forgot something.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Amidst the deafening howls, Ji Shanqing endured the sudden panic and asked softly.

Lin Sanjiu blinked, then bit her lip and shook her head. The next second. As if she was surprised that he would ask this, she pushed him: "Let's go."

"Okay——"

However, just as the two of them were about to move, Ji Shanqing's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately put the [Ability Polishing Agent] into his coat; he held the thing in his arms tightly while trying to block it. Light leaked from the corner of his clothes. He turned around and whispered to Lin Sanjiu urgently: "——Go back! Go back upstairs!"

Lin Sanjiu's shoulders were shaken and she had no idea what was happening. I could only tug on his sleeve in confusion. The footsteps hurriedly followed him back upstairs - the two of them had just climbed the stairs when they heard a burst of voices coming from far and near downstairs, and the flashlight's round light spot flickering.

"It turns out someone is here." Lin Sanjiu leaned close to Ji Shanqing's ear. He said something blankly in a very low voice. "...I didn't hear anything."

...Even the gift bag himself didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.

"He started barking again," a man's voice sounded clearly from downstairs. The voice was accompanied by his almost inaudible quick steps: "...It's so **** annoying."

"Wait," another female voice laughed with interest. Just when Ji Shanqing was wondering what she was going to do, he heard the anti-theft iron door being kicked so hard that it shook twice, and then her soft voice floated up: "Xuanxuan, if you cry again, mom won't want you anymore." ."

It's like a magic spell. The wailing stopped suddenly and turned into violent sobbing that could not be controlled for a while.

Because the howl just now was too sharp, Ji Shanqing didn't even know whether the other party was a boy or a girl. Not to mention how old they were; just when he was wondering, he heard the man and woman turn around. Walking upstairs again.

With a sudden jolt, he quickly poked Lin Sanjiu; in the darkness, he felt that his master's movements were slow and dull, so anxious that he had to push her back - but fortunately, he was downstairs. The man and woman walked slowly and slowly. When they stepped back one floor, the man and woman had just arrived at the floor they were on.

If you go further up, you will soon reach the top floor. Ji Shanqing swallowed a mouthful of saliva and thought.

He could clearly feel that the two people who suddenly appeared were evolutionaries.

Although I don’t know what their strength is, with our current combat effectiveness as slim as clay, and a level that can’t even be called slime, if the other party has bad intentions, I’m afraid the two of us will have no luck.

The nerves became tighter and tighter with the footsteps of the man and woman; just when Ji Shanqing felt that he could hardly control his heartbeat, the woman suddenly spoke: "...806, this is right here."

It’s okay, it’s okay, Ji Shanqing silently rejoiced in his heart.

From the duo who had only heard his voice but not seen him, the man took a step forward and knocked lightly on the door of 806. His voice sounded like a different person: "Sister Cui, please open the door. I am Xiao Hu."

After he finished speaking, the corridor became as quiet as death.

Ji Shanqing passed by 806 twice, but he didn't realize there was anyone inside - now it sounds like no one lives there.

The woman muttered "Shameless" in a low voice. As if it was not strange at all, the man said again along the crack of the door: "Sister Cui, I went to ask for you what you asked me last time."

Almost the second after he finished speaking, the door of the wooden room inside 806 opened with a creak.

"Xiao, Xiao Hu," a thick female voice with a heavy accent and slurred speech defended with a bit of fear and expectation: "I... I fell asleep just now and didn't hear you. Knock on the door. What's going on?"

"Open the door first so we can go in and talk," the man obviously didn't listen to her murmuring explanation, "This is my colleague, don't be afraid."

"Hey, okay," with the "click" of the anti-theft door lock, Sister Cui opened the door in embarrassment - and then there was only a "gu" sound, and there was no sound in the corridor downstairs. There was movement.

Ji Shanqing was stunned and couldn't help but glance back at Lin Sanjiu. He was about to ask her what the situation was, but he immediately shut his mouth.

... With the dim flashlight light downstairs, he could barely see clearly. At this time, the owner was squatting on the stairs, holding his knees tightly with one hand, and putting the other hand in his mouth to chew his nails.

Ji Shanqing drooped his eyelids, said nothing, and turned back.

There was a "rustling" sound coming from downstairs, and it sounded like something heavy was being dragged away - after thinking about it, he still had the courage to stick his head out and take a quick glance. , and quickly retracted.

In that glance that was so fast that the scenery was blurred, he saw nothing useful. He could only vaguely see a large open door and a bald head with piles of skin on the back of his neck. And...the eyes of a woman with short hair.

When he realized this, Ji Shanqing felt cold all over.

"Hey, I just saw someone upstairs." With some doubts, the woman spoke from downstairs.

"Isn't this too normal?" the man responded, "There are **** human beings in this building."

The woman pondered for a few seconds, "...it seems a little wrong, it doesn't seem like we know each other."

"Then go up and take a look!" the man replied impatiently, "but hurry up, there is still a lot of work to do."

Just when Ji Shanqing's hair stood up and he turned around and pushed Lin Sanjiu a few times, urging her to leave quickly, the sound of women's leather shoes downstairs stopped again.

"Forget it," she seemed to be unmotivated about going upstairs to check, "You're right, can there be more people?"

Ji Shanqing breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and immediately did not dare to move anymore. He also quickly grabbed the wrist of Lin Sanjiu who had just stood up - he was currently curled up with [Ability Polishing Agent] clamped on his chest and abdomen. For a moment, he had to maintain an uncomfortable posture because he was afraid of the light leaking out, and soon sweat started to form on his forehead.

The sound of "rustling" became smaller and smaller, and finally together with the light of the flashlights in the hands of the man and woman, they gradually disappeared into the corridor completely. Ji Shanqing huddled up and didn't dare to make any move for a long time; after waiting for nearly ten minutes~IndoMTL.com~ when he saw that he could no longer hear the sound from downstairs, he took a breath and used [Ability Polishing Agent] took it out from his clothes and stood up.

Lin Sanjiu, who was beside him, suddenly turned his head back slowly and almost stiffly in a silver light.

Ji Shanqing suddenly trembled all over and slowly turned his gaze.

The face of a strange middle-aged woman was hanging quietly on the back of Ji Shanqing's head. A trace of blood slipped from her forehead, and her eyes were half-closed, as if she was still thinking about something.

...Sister Cui.

"You're a very cautious girl." The woman who called herself "Mom" just now smiled softly on top of his head, "We watched you here for ten minutes before you stood up. ...Well, is this your friend?"

"That's great. You two look young and firm, with even fat..." the bald head said, licking his lips. (To be continued.)
