Chapter 306 Pollution

Kacha~

The door of the meeting room fell down as soon as it was pushed. Looking around, Li Rui didn't find any trace of living things.

"Hee hee hee~"

The faint laughter disappeared in a flash, and Li Rui quickly poked his head out of the conference room, just in time to see a white figure disappear around the corner.

"Sister Yun, this way!"

Shua~

Li Rui let out a low cry, and instantly disappeared in place.

Ma Xiaoyun's eyes moved, and he followed her effortlessly.

But no matter how fast the two of them were, when they chased them out, there was already a dead silence outside, as if the figure just now was just their hallucination.

"Xiao Rui, what does that shadow look like?"

"I can't see clearly, I just know it's not too tall, like a child, and the clothes should be white."

"Children, white..."

Ma Xiaoyun frowned in thought, and shook her head after a while.

"Leave him alone, it's important to find the sealed item."

"Um."

Li Rui also felt that he was distracted, so he tensed up to explore again.

The pitch-black passage seemed to spread endlessly downwards, as if leading straight to hell.

The mechanical repetition made people lose their sense of distance and direction. Li Rui felt that the two of them had been walking up the stairs for hours!

"24th floor... Sister Yun, do you feel that the stairs are getting longer and longer?"

"Not only are the stairs getting longer and longer, but the outside environment is also getting weirder."

Ma Xiaoyun opened the emergency exit door with solemn eyes.

Coming to the corridor outside, the paint on the walls was almost completely mottled and peeled off, revealing a mud-like black substance.

Tiny cracks began to spread on the wall, and an extremely faint red light could be vaguely seen inside.

Several ossified corpses fell on the corridor, and the deep scratches they had left on the wall could still be seen.

"What kind of terror and despair did they go through before they were alive to break their finger bones?"

Li Rui squatted down to examine carefully, and found that there were rotten rags on the bones.

Kacha~

Ma Xiaoyun took off a piece of black substance on the wall, and crushed it into powder with his fingers.

Putting it on the tip of her nose and sniffing it twice, she frowned, flicked between her fingers, and the powder exploded in an instant.

"The smell of dried blood and excrement."

Paint the walls with dung?

The corners of Li Rui's eyes twitched, looking at Ma Xiaoyun's fingers, he didn't know what to say.

As if guessing what he was thinking, Ma Xiaoyun glared at him, found a stack of wet tissues from the toolbox, and slowly wiped her hands clean.

"Sister Yun, why do you have everything in your toolbox?"

Li Rui's eyes showed curiosity, and he felt that Ma Xiaoyun would not be surprised the next second when he took out a box of instant noodles.

"Space equipment, the situation I deal with is generally more complicated, and it is necessary to have targeted weapon consumables."

After wiping her hands, Ma Xiaojun threw the wet tissue into the rotten trash can, and went back to the emergency passage to continue down.

But as the floors increased, the stairs on each floor continued to lengthen. Even if the two began to speed up and run wildly, the time to reach the next floor was also lengthening.

All five senses tended to be chaotic and numb. Li Rui felt as if he had been running in a dark passage for several days!

Neither of them noticed that a talisman on Li Rui's vest was being reduced to ashes at an undetectable speed.

"Floor 32, soon!"

Opening the emergency exit door as usual, what greets the eyes is a hellish and weird scene.

No modern buildings can be seen on the walls, a layer of visceral squirming flesh wraps the space.

Eyeballs grow from time to time on the ground and ceiling, staring at all living things with greedy and crazy eyesight.

Ma Xiaoyun saw some sparse shadows squirming in the depths of the corridor, and could vaguely hear ravings and screams coming from inside.

"Building structures are not garages, keep going down."

Just as she was about to walk back, she saw Li Rui's expression and suddenly stopped.

"Xiao Rui, do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Um?"

Li Rui was poured from head to toe like a basin of ice water, and his numb and dizzy brain instantly woke up.

"Why do you ask?"

Ma Xiaoyun did not speak, and took out a mirror from the toolbox.

A strangely distorted face was reflected in the mirror.

Blue and black blood vessels spread upward from the neck, spreading to the entire cheek like tree roots.

The scales squirmed like bugs on the skin, and the eyeballs were no longer as agile as before, and were covered with a gray film.

"this is me?"

Li Rui touched his cheek in disbelief, the feedback on his hand was like a thick cotton glove.

A closer look revealed that his hands had also changed. The thick cuticle made his five fingers look like reptiles, and his nails became sharp and slender.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you follow to this depth, but fortunately, you're not seriously polluted, and there's still time to return now!"

Ma Xiaoyun found a few spells and stuck them on Li Rui's body, and they turned into blazing flames and penetrated into his body in an instant.

A cool chill traveled through Li Rui's meridians, and finally penetrated into the center of his brow, dispelling the nausea and dizziness.

The worm-like scales dissipated and disappeared into the skin, the blue-black blood vessels like roots slowly healed, and the nails on his hands retracted. Li Rui returned to his normal appearance, but his face was still pale!

The white film full of rot and death on the eyeballs disappeared, and Li Rui's brain cleared up for a while, and only then did he realize the strangeness he had been having all the way!

He had felt uncomfortable a long time ago, but the endless darkness and the imperceptible repetition of mechanical movements numb his nerves.

And with the increase of "depth", he has been seriously "polluted" unconsciously.

Li Rui only felt scared for a while. He could at least fight against a tangible and qualitative enemy, but this kind of boss didn't see him, and he was brought down like a frog boiled in warm water. It would be too suffocating to die!

"If I leave, how about you, sister Yun?"

Li Rui stared at Ma Xiaoyun, noticing that under her fluffy white skin, some black blood vessels were wriggling like living things.

She was also polluted, but not as serious as herself!

A trace of heaviness flashed across Li Rui's eyes.

"Me? Of course I will continue to recover sealed items. Don't worry, I'm a Gold Rank, and this bit of pollution won't bother me."

Ma Xiaoyun smiled, patted Li Rui on the shoulder and pushed him back.

However, Li Rui was cast in place like molten iron, and Ma Xiaoyun did not push it after two pushes.

With a glint in his eyes, Li Rui pondered for a moment, then bit his back teeth.

"Sister Yun, it's better for the two of you to take care of each other in this kind of place, otherwise you will unknowingly become a monster without knowing it!"

A smile appeared in Ma Xiaoyun's eyes, and he shook his head.

"Xiao Rui, the farther you are from reality, the easier it is to be distorted and polluted. Your personality is too low, and the "depth" below is not something you can resist."
