Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 1428: Underground River

Dr. Ruan Li and I have been diving. The darkness and coldness deepened. Dr. Ruan Li was shaking on my back. I felt her body was becoming stiff. It was not the lack of oxygen that hurt her, but the underwater The pressure and cold. ", I did not dive fast, because I have to feel the direction of the water flow and look for possible caves on the side walls. Dr. Ruan Li and I are not clear about the details of our friend "Gus" finding the entrance of the underground river. It may be just luck for him, but for us, it is quite hard work, even if we can observe 50 meters with the chain judgment. In the case of a square circle, as the dive deeper, the surrounding area of ​​the water pool also rapidly becomes larger. When the dive is about 20 meters, the chain judgment cannot cover the edge at one time.

I follow the power of the vortex and swim in a circular arc. Dr. Ruan Li is also using the light of the searchlight to look for possible clues. However, the light of the searchlight is no longer visible with the naked eye from five meters away. Cleared. The physique of the fourth-level Mageweave messenger allows me to stay underwater for a long time, but Dr. Ruan Li is just the physique of an ordinary woman. The pressure brought by the dark underwater is not only psychological, but also physical. .

When I felt that she could not support her, I began to float up, and the power of the vortex dragged us. If only Dr. Ruan Li was alone, there would be no way to escape this kind of suction at this depth. Although I also intend to rush into the vortex in one effort, guessing that the entrance is probably there, but before all the possibilities are investigated, directly entering the depths of the vortex can only be regarded as the last resort. Both Dr. Ruan Li and I can feel the power of the whirlpool, and the more we go down, the more we can't look back.

Another minute later, we finally rose to the surface. The stiff Doctor Ruan Li trembled and took off the oxygen supply respirator, as if a traveler in the desert was about to die of thirst, finally smelling a hint of water vapor. The sound of breathing is like draining the lungs. I took her back to the shallow water, and then untied her from behind and placed it on the protruding part of the rock wall on the bank. I took a blanket from the debris that was not in the water and wrapped her tightly.

There is no way to make a fire here, there is water under our feet. Water was constantly splashing overhead, and the majestic heavy rain made it impossible to really shelter from the rain. It didn't take long for the blanket that wrapped Dr. Ruan Li's body to become heavy because of soaking, and it no longer had the original warmth. Dr. Ruan Li reluctantly relieved her anger. I saw her face turned blue. If she was in a truly safe place, I would prevent her from entering the water, but for now, let her stay on the shore alone. On the contrary, people feel that it will be very dangerous.

According to the best assumption before launching, we might find the entrance of the underground river immediately after launching, but obviously we were not so lucky.

I took out the chocolate, compressed biscuits, and water bottle, and shared it with Dr. Ruan Li, her face only improved slightly. The harsh situation kept us silent, and we had already discussed what we should do next. You can float up the first time you launch, but you can launch the second time. You must keep diving, deep into the whirlpool. This is a gamble. But in my opinion, when Dr. Nguyen Li stays on the peninsula, he is also facing a gamble.

"Two-thirds of the oxygen remains." Although Dr. Ruan Li looked bad because of the harsh environment, she did not lose confidence. She calmly checked the respirator and oxygen bottle and said to me: "According to the grid According to Si. He was in a half-awake state until he entered the underground river. At that time, he had not carried any tools or oxygen supply equipment. So, judging from the depth of our dive, we had not found the entrance before. , Then the entrance is not there. The deeper you go to the depth of the vortex. The faster you dive, and it is possible that the entrance is really at the bottom of the vortex."

I bit the compressed biscuits and nodded. Actually, we don't have many choices. There are not many ways to leave the peninsula. No matter which way you choose, you will inevitably take unknown risks.

"I don't know what happened to Gus." Dr. Ruan Li sighed, "We originally agreed to escape together."

"Actually, it was our luck to be able to get here without meeting the seminar people." I said, "Gus’s disappearance is weird." I thought, I’m just opening my eyes and telling lies, that The appearance of the girl in red meant that we were in big trouble. However, Dr. Ruan Li didn't seem to know what happened at that time. No, maybe for her, it was just an illusion without any threat.

Doctor Ruan Li rubbed his temples with his fingertips and looked up into the depths of the stream. Suddenly, I noticed her body tightened, as if she was taken aback. Before I asked, she stared at that place and said to me: "Achuan, is there something there?"

My chain determination has been unfolding, and the chain determination has not observed superfluous things. Even so, the things that can avoid the chain determination but will not be seen by the naked eye are always there. I couldn’t help but follow Dr. Ruan Li’s gaze. The depths of the stream did not transmit light at all, just like a cloud of ink that couldn’t be dyed. The darkness before was also making people feel scared, and people couldn’t help but imagine something terrifying and unknown. Things, but at this time, the darkness seems to be creeping, like water waves are moving, which makes people feel wrong, but it makes people feel vaguely, a sense of rhythm that is completely different from before.

The darkness seemed to have become a living thing, stretching the body, at first it seemed to be drifting with the flow, but the more I stared at it, the more I felt that it was a living thing stirring the stream, which made the stream gradually agitate. . Dr. Ruan Li and I couldn't help but stand up, and saw that the darkness seemed to be slow and fast, and in a blink of an eye it had risen to the surface of the water and spread in all directions against the surface of the water.

This darkness seems to be densely woven with very thin black silk threads. As the darkness spreads, these threads are growing. Crossing the water, climbing up the rock wall, you vie for me, and after a few breaths, you have already come to us. I hurriedly picked up Dr. Ruan Li, and then the dark thread passed around me, but went around one meter away from where we were standing, full of a sense of conscious deliberateness.

A few more breaths, except for our own feet, the places where we can see are completely covered by this qualitative darkness.

Neither Dr. Ruan Li nor I know exactly what this is. Although there is a strong sense of danger, its avoidance cannot make us immediately determined to attack it. No one knows if this kind of thing is stimulated, whether it will invite bad luck that was not there.

To me, this is of course a mysterious phenomenon, but in the eyes of Dr. Ruan Li. But there is another look of probing. If it weren't for such harsh conditions, she might try to collect some samples.

Although the darkness avoided both of us, I couldn't feel the kindness from this mysterious and unknown thing at all. I touched the place covered by darkness with my hand, and as I moved, the darkness spread around as if I wanted to avoid it, exposing the original surface of the mountain wall.

This time. Even the two suitcases by the feet were covered in darkness.

I tried to pick up the suitcase, and the dark threads scrambled to disperse, but when I really grasped the handle, they rushed up frantically and swallowed the suitcase again. I've never seen such a weirdness, but since even the girl in red has appeared, it is not impossible to follow this kind of unclear meaning.

I didn't feel nervous, but Dr. Ruan Li gave a low exclamation. Her eyes have fallen on the stream again. I also looked over, and only saw the lady in red suspended on the water, her low toes barely touched the water, and those dark filaments that were expanding and spreading made people feel that they were flowing from the inside of the skirt.

After an electric flash and thunder, the lady in red completely disappeared from her eyes. However, in the observation of chain determination, many human figures appeared in the depths of the stream, and they seemed to be suspended in the water. As if drowned, a static and gloomy posture. As if not affected by the underwater whirlpool at all.

These human figures remind me of the "water ghosts" often mentioned in occultism.

After the girl in red disappeared, Dr. Ruan Li broke the suffocating silence and said: "What is that? Did you see it? A Chuan."

I nodded.

Dr. Ruan Li's face suddenly became worse. I think she probably felt that her erosion by White Claudia had become serious again, and the effect she had hoped for. I also failed to show it to me at this time. In the best case, we shouldn't have seen these weird things.

"Let's get into the water." Dr. Ruan Li suddenly decided.

"Immediately?" I asked

"Immediately!" She said without hesitation, breaking free from my arms and stepping on the ground again. She was about to step on the darkness that permeated here. But the darkness receded before she landed, leaving a ground that was big enough to land. The sense of deliberate avoidance is even stronger. She took a few steps forward to confirm this.

On the contrary, after Dr. Ruan Li left, I noticed that the darkness around me was about to move. It seemed that as long as she moved further away, the darkness would do something to me. As you can imagine, that was definitely not a good thing.

Doctor Ruan Li quickly discovered this, and returned to me.

I have guessed a long time ago that Dr. Ruan Li’s identity to this Las Vegas repeater is unusual, and the dark initiative to avoid it seems to be proof of this. The reason why these darkness reacted to me before was probably just because I was too close to Dr. Ruan Li.

I quickly reorganized my equipment, and retired Dr. Ruan Li, who was wearing a respirator, to his back in the same way as the last time, lifted the suitcase and walked into the water. Where we passed, the death of darkness retreated. Even so, the darkness in the water was so strong that even searchlights could not extend the beam of light to five meters away. Over one meter away, only a hazy outline remained.

I feel that the two of me have entered the belly of a monster.

The feeling of danger gradually became stronger over time. As soon as I entered the water, I completely gave up the resistance to the whirlpool, and followed this force to speed up and dive into the depths. I tried to use a fast sweep, but beyond the unobservable distance, the invisible high-speed channel could not be formed at all, and only short-distance sprints could be carried out. I am a little suspicious that this is a trap set by the lady in red in order to target me. She tried to weaken the threat of quick-grabbing superpower in this way.

The thread of darkness cannot block the chain determination. In the chain determination, it is originally a "non-existent" thing, but compared to the dark thread that can be seen by the naked eye but cannot be observed by the chain determination, in this water area There are also human figures that cannot be seen with the naked eye, but can be observed by chain judgment.

Like corpses floating in the water, the number of these human figures is gradually increasing as we dive. They surround Dr. Ruan Li and me, one by one facing us, making me feel that they will always Pounced. These weird onlookers are creepy. I speeded up my dive. Dr. Ruan Li’s respirator kept making dull grunting sounds in my ears. It was also the only thing I could hear in this dark water. the sound of.

The power of the vortex is getting stronger and stronger, and the buoyancy seems to be gradually disappearing. I feel like falling from the air for an instant, and at the moment of falling, the spot where the searchlights are shining, there are faces facing us. Dr. Ruan Li's body was originally stiff, but at this time it was shaking violently.

Immediately afterwards, air poured into my nose and throat, and I felt as if I had broken free of some power.

The water disappeared from our eyes, but a huge roar echoed. We were thrown in mid-air, and then plunged into the pool below. The light of the searchlight became normal, and I could see clearly that the water from where we fell~IndoMTL.com~ turned into a waterfall and pours down, hitting the pool, creating waves of mist.

Doctor Ruan Li and I fell into an underground cavity. The water on the ground turns into a waterfall and pours into the pool here, and this pool is the source of a river. If there were no torrential rains, maybe the river would dry up, but at this time, the water rushed, washing the rocks, and rushing towards the invisible front.

If we do nothing, we will be driven by the current and keep moving forward. However, there is a group of reefs ahead. At the current speed, ordinary people will break several bones. If it is a vital part, they may die. I swam to the shore carrying Doctor Ruan Li, her face was not good, but she was full of excitement.

"That's it, we...find it, found it! Achuan, we found it!" She murmured while shivering.

"Don't get too excited, Mom. We must find a drier place to light the fire." The source of this underground river is full of mist, which is not a good place to stay for a long time.

I rushed all the way with Dr. Ruan Li’s back, and the humidity of the air was also dropping rapidly. Although there is no water in the place, it will not be dry, but I just want to find a place where I can light a fire. The road ahead is still long, but Dr. Ruan Li's physique is unable to persist in the damp and cold conditions. (To be continued...)
