Chapter 51(1/3)
The sky has gradually darkened.
In the dull twilight, the abandoned building in front of you is becoming more and more deserted, with a terrible grimness.
A member of the combat department turned his head and looked at Chen Qingye who was standing at the end of the team in a regular manner: "This is the last one, how about it? Are you still adapting to today's work?"
Chen Qingye did not answer.
He looked up at the abandoned building in front of him, thinking about something.
"How is the detector reading?" asked the member of the combat department.
Chen Qingye withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to scan the detector hanging around his waist: "It's very low..."
Up to now, they have finished cleaning the other two yin wells. The above worries are indeed correct. Due to the recent night trip of hundreds of ghosts in M City, a large amount of yin energy has accumulated in the yin wells, which has not been cleaned. Although it has not yet reached the level of alarming the detector placed in it, such a high concentration of yin energy is enough to cause the occurrence of strange phenomena, which has added some trouble to their cleaning work, but they are still within a controllable range.
To be precise, the concentration of yin energy in the last Yin well was already the lowest among the three.
The members of the combat department all showed a relaxed expression on their faces: "Let's go, after handling this, you can finish the work today!"
However, Chen Qingye suddenly spoke, "Sorry, senior, I think there is something wrong here."
The other party was stunned: "What's wrong? Did you find something wrong?"
Chen Qingye shook his head: "No..."
He stretched his fingertips into his sleeves, touched the restless heads of the worms, and tried to soothe them.
His brows frowned slightly, as if he was a little troubled: "But my babies seemed to react a little violently."
The other members of the combat department looked at each other, and they looked at each other. Finally, the leader of the team spoke: "I understand, you have some special talents, but if there is no very tangible evidence, we cannot terminate the mission directly like this. So, besides your... baby, do you have any other evidence that can support your idea?"
Chen Qingye shook his head honestly: "Sorry, no."
In fact, even he himself did not feel any strange place outside the building, but for some reason, the insect he raised was in a very restless state, just like the situation this afternoon - he obviously did not feel any abnormality from the member of the logistics department named Yejia, but A Chang was very hostile.
Could it be that I had a stomachache today?
"Then let's go in." said the leader: "But everyone is very vigilant and always ensure smooth communication with the outside world."
Everyone nodded.
The team headed into the underworld.
The light in the abandoned building was very dark, with various messy graffiti on the exposed cement walls, and the rusty pipes were exposed, making them look particularly gloomy and weird.
Everyone moved forward carefully, checking the readings on the detector at all times.
However, as they went deeper, although the value on the detector increased, it was still in a normal state. I did not encounter any changes caused by the Yin Qi along the way, nor did I encounter ghosts wandering around. It was a bit too peaceful than the other two Yin wells.
The team soon arrived at the center of the building.
Chen Qingye opened his hand, but the insect did not jump out like he had just now and began to suck the yin energy in the air. Instead, he wrapped it tightly on his wrist and made a hissing sound in the darkness around him.
He frowned and looked up again at the combat department member standing beside him, trying to say something: "Senior, I..."
However, before he finished speaking, a team member in front exclaimed and interrupted Chen Qingye: "Come and see what this is!"
The iron door in front was covered with rust marks, and the patent leather on the surface fell off, and the color it used to be could hardly be recognized. It was half open, and the members who looked inward looked surprised.
Chen Qingye withdrew his hand, walked forward quickly, and looked in the direction pointed by the member.
In front of it is a huge and open open space, with the ground covered with dust and rubble. In the depths of the site that should have been empty, there is a translucent pupae that is more than one person tall. Its surface looks particularly soft, with patterns one after another. Something seems to be squirming slowly below. The air around it is covered with some strange gum, emitting a faint stench.
Chen Qingye was stunned, and then a sharp look flashed in his eyes: "Does go!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the viscous gelatin wrapped around the insect pupa suddenly rolled up, and the gelatin differentiated into a huge tentacle with lightning speed and suddenly attacked everyone!
The next second, the members of the Battle Division felt a dark look in front of them.
A centipede, which was pitch black all over appeared in front of them. The huge body almost filled the entire corridor. The carapace was flashing with a cold metallic luster. Several eyeballs on the body were spinning wildly. It waved its huge pliers and made a clicking sound, and then it suddenly collided with the glue tentacles in front of it!
The entire building was shaken, and dust and bricks fell down, confusing everyone's eyes.
Chen Qingye turned his head and shouted at the members of the combat department: "Run quickly!"
However, it seemed that everything was too late. When it collided with the centipede, the gelatinous substances quickly dispersed as if they had lost their cohesion. They melted into the air and spread at a speed that they could not catch up with, wrapping the entire building in an instant.
When everything is over, the scene in front of me has completely changed.
It was still an empty building corridor, but the front and back became unfathomable, as if there was no beginning and end. The place where the pupae floated before became empty again, and the air became dirty and dim, as if it was shrouded in a sticky haze. Looking out along the window frame, I found that the scenery outside the window was no longer the abandoned space before, but became a fog that could not see the fingers.
The leader looked pale and reached out to take out his cell phone-no signal.
After the radio communicator was turned on, there was still a noisy buzz inside, and it was impossible to contact the outside world.
Chen Qingye stretched out his hand and touched A Chang's huge body. The ordinary face looked extremely solemn.
Yin pupa...
Cultivating a complete Yin pupa requires extremely large Yin Qi, so it is placed here. It absorbs the Yin Qi that continues to flow into the Yin well, so the Yin Qi index here is much lower than the other two places.
Before it has fully grown, a pupa will not be detected at all. The layer of glucoplasm wrapped outside it can not only block its breath, but also destroy any human beings who witness the existence of the pupa.
Before the pupa hatched, it is impossible to figure out what kind of monster inside it is.
However, once the Yin pupa grows and the monsters hatch out, things will be out of control.
——The lowest level b, the highest level may even exceed the level s.
Now, this pupa is obviously approaching its state of hatching, so the glucoplasm around it is so aggressive and transfers the pupa itself after one hit.
Fortunately, what it has created now is nothing more than an unformed ghost.
Although it looks scary and the space seems to be larger than before, you can still leave as long as you return along the same route.
Chen Qingye turned his head and looked at the other members of the combat department beside him, and said solemnly: "Senior, you'd better leave now quickly. In order to protect the pupa, it will release the yin energy to attract the surrounding ghosts and monsters."
The team leader was a little anxious: "Then, what should you do?"
Chen Qingye touched the shell of A Chang beside him: "I'll go and see if I can find the pupa before it hatched."
The Yin pupa cannot be traced, only his Guworm can find it.
He said: "After you leave, quickly contact the members of the combat department and let them come here to take over."
The leader's face turned pale a little longer: "Is it very serious?"
"Yes..." Chen Qingye nodded: "And I am only responsible for tracking and not preparing to participate in the battle, so I hope that the seniors of the Battle Department can arrive before I find the pupa, otherwise things will become more difficult to deal with after it hatch."
The members of the Battle Section nodded solemnly, then turned around and ran towards the direction they came.
The road in front of us seems long and far, and it seems that we will never reach our end.
The dull corridor was particularly narrow, and in the dead silence, only the sound of a group of people stumbled and stumbled.
They turned a corner again, but almost ran into a fierce ghost roaring towards them.
"Prepare for battle!" the leader shouted loudly.
Although the team of the combat department is all newcomers, they have received systematic training after all. After a brief panic, they quickly regrouped and began to fight against the fierce ghost in front of them with a fierce look on their faces.
Roars, gunfires, and combat-style openings intertwined noisily, echoing in the hazy mist and narrow corridors.
At this moment, one of the members felt itchy in their necks.
He touched it.
But I felt a few strands of long black hair in my palm.
A slight giggle came from the top of your head.
The member slowly raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound came.
A female ghost with limbs on all sides, her head hanging upside down, and her face covered in purple was lying on the ceiling, her dark hair was hanging down, and she stared at him with a pair of scarlet eyeballs.
"Ahhhh!"
The screams of members came from several positions in the team one after another.
The leader took the time to turn his head and look behind him.
An extremely terrifying scene appeared in front of him - the female ghost lying on the ceiling, the skull leaning in from the corridor window, the rotten corpses slowly emerging below the ground, including the green-faced and fanged ghost they are now dealing with.
Before they knew it, they were actually surrounded by evil ghosts.
Chen Qingye's warning came true - the strange pupa attracted too many evil spirits.
Under the attack from all sides, they could only barely deal with it, and it was difficult to move forward.
The team leader was extremely anxious.
Chen Qingye said it clearly before. His main task is to find the location of the pupa, not to fight.
But they are now in a deep mud, unable to leave, and have no way to seek support - the situation is stalemate here for a while, it is like a dead end.
Suddenly, without warning, the skeleton lying on the window seemed to notice something, suddenly raised his body and looked in a certain direction. The clatter of bone friction in his throat, and then in the next second, he turned around and disappeared into the fog outside the window.
The team leader was shocked.
What's going on?
Before he could come up with something, the next second, a huge figure floated in the darkness not far ahead.
The white bones were approaching, and the sharp and serrated mouth opened, and it suddenly bit the leg of the evil ghost with green face and fangs, swallowing it whole.
To be continued...
