Chapter 321 Back Room 22
Chapter 321 Back Room 22
I just used the same power to explore this space and got a very strange result.
In the vast white space, there is a place where the power is very unstable, as if there is a leaky door there, leaking out the power along with it.
Taking Lin Tao to the "leakage" location, they saw a white door.
This door blends into the wall and is consistent with the color of the entire space. It cannot be seen unless you look closely.
Even when she got closer, Lin Tao still couldn't see it.
"What are you doing here? There is no door to leave, only a wall."
"Isn't the door right here?"
Feeling the familiar power coming from behind the door, Lu Xichen smiled and reached out to push the door open.
A dazzling white light flashed, and behind the door was a long corridor.
There was no light above where they were standing, but there was light from two meters in front of them to a place where they could not see.
Lu Xishen felt a strong sense of common power.
She took the first step. Lin Tao wanted to hold her back and ask her to be more careful, but her hand brushed against Lu Xichen's sleeve and she failed to grab it.
This is a long corridor built with wooden boards.
It is identical to the corridor encountered previously on Level 0, except for the different construction materials.
Seeing that Lu Xishen was not in any danger, Lin Tao also stepped in carefully.
"Lin Tao, follow me."
"what?"
Before Lin Tao could figure out the current situation, Lu Xichen had already set off forward eagerly, and Lin Tao had to hurry to catch up.
But she is a curious baby and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't ask questions.
"Lu Xichen, where are you taking me?"
"Leave the 2nd floor."
"Huh? Leave the 2nd Floor? Can the two of us do that? We just arrived at the 2nd Floor. We don't even know the rules of the 2nd Floor."
Lu Xishen looked back and gave her a reassuring smile, then continued walking quickly.
Lin Tao didn't have time to continue asking, she wanted to try her best to catch up with Lu Xichen.
"Lu Xichen... Lu Xichen... I can't run anymore, you... wait for me..."
Lin Tao was panting and holding onto the wall. She no longer had the strength to continue running.
I feel that there is not much difference between her and Lu Xichen. Their physical strength should be about the same. Why is Lu Xichen so powerful?
Leaning against the wall and slowly sliding down, Lin Tao really couldn't walk anymore and had to rest for a while.
Lu Xichen stopped when she heard the sound, and looked back to see Lin Tao panting. Only then did she realize how fast she had been running.
Because she is becoming more and more adapted to her fourth-level body, she subconsciously ignores many things when doing things.
He walked back two steps and came to Lin Tao, sat next to her and rested with her.
Having a moment to catch her breath, Lin Tao swallowed and finally had time to continue asking the questions in her heart.
"Where are you taking me?"
"Haven't you asked the same question before? I have answered you." Lu Xichen frowned slightly.
"You mean leaving the 2nd floor? Really?" Lin Tao still had doubts about this matter.
"Of course it's true. I have no reason to lie to you. You should take a good rest. We will continue our journey after you have rested well."
While speaking, Lu Xichen also considerately handed Lin Tao a bottle of water and a piece of compressed biscuit.
"You gave me the food, what are you going to do?"
Lin Tao didn't rush to take it.
Lu Xichen pursed his lips and motioned Lin Tao to look at the backpack in Changzhou's hand, "It's still there, don't worry."
After confirming that Lu Xichen still had some food reserves, Lin Tao accepted it with confidence.
"Then how do you know where to leave the 2nd floor?"
Lin Tao chewed a compressed biscuit and continued to ask the question in her heart with unclear pronunciation.
Lu Xichen smiled and said, "It's a secret."
Lin Tao shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.
Everyone has their own secrets. If the other person doesn't want to tell you, it would be impolite to keep asking.
After Lin Tao recovered, the two continued on their way.
But the second floor seemed to know that they were about to reach the "end", and suddenly many traps appeared to stop them.
Lin Tao was trapped in an iron cage just after she walked 100 meters. It was Lu Xichen who broke open the cage with his bare hands.
Lin Tao was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
Continuing walking, Lu Xichen always kept Lin Tao by her side, but still kept a certain distance from her.
After walking another 1000 meters, a deep pit suddenly appeared under Lin Tao's feet. Standing on the edge and looking down, it was bottomless.
Fortunately, Lu Xichen reacted quickly, reached out and grabbed Lin Tao, and pulled her up with force.
The road will remain like this from now on. Lin Tao will be in danger before she goes far.
This situation made Lin Tao's face darken for a moment.
"Why are you targeting me?"
Lu Xichen touched the tip of his nose guiltily.
These traps were not aimed at Lin Tao, but at her.
It’s just that Lu Xichen can avoid those intangible strange forces, but Lin Tao doesn’t have this ability, so she always suffers and Lu Xichen has no way to help her in advance.
These forces appeared suddenly, and Lu Xichen could only protect himself as quickly as possible.
"How long will it take?"
Lin Tao felt like crying but had no tears.
"That's about three kilometers. Are you tired? Let's take a break."
"I'm not tired physically, but I'm tired mentally. I don't know what strange mechanism I'll step on in the next second."
Lin Tao slumped on the ground in dejection.
"I am just a burden, Lu Xichen, please go away and leave me alone. Let me find a way out on my own."
Lu Xichen stood quietly beside Lin Tao and did not respond to her complaints this time.
"I clearly said I wouldn't cause you any trouble, but in the end I still couldn't follow in your footsteps. Maybe I shouldn't have followed."
Lin Tao complained a few more times, but Lu Xichen still stared at her silently.
This made Lin Tao couldn't help but raise her head.
"Lu Xichen...why don't you speak?"
"Nothing, I'm leaving now, take care."
Lu Xichen was about to leave after he finished speaking, and shock, anxiety, and calculation flashed across Lin Tao's face.
There was no time to hide it, and she wanted to say something, but Lu Xishen suddenly turned his head and saw the emotion on her face.
Lin Tao didn't have time to put on a fake smile before Lu Xichen saw her complicated emotions.
Lu Xichen sneered, stopped where he was and turned around to face Lin Tao's awkward smile.
"Stop pretending. You've been pretending since I entered the Blue Beach. It's been so long. Aren't you tired?"
An unnatural expression appeared on Lin Tao's face.
"Ah? Why am I pretending? I don't understand what you are saying."
Lu Xishen walked back patiently, squatted in front of the blue beach, looked at her carefully made expression of surprise and confusion, and laughed softly.
"The rules say you can't trust anyone."
Don’t trust anyone who appears in front of you.
“I saw you just after entering the Blue Beach, and you were so attentive and proactive towards me.
You told me everything you knew about my problems, and you were not at all wary of strangers. Although you explained, I still didn't completely trust you. "
