Chongqing's Mysterious 108th Floor (Part 2)
Lin Yu and the other two dragged their exhausted bodies, heavy as lead, yet their nerves tense as they continued their arduous climb up the seemingly endless staircase. Every step felt like treading on thorns woven from unknown fears. The increasingly intense eerie aura in the hallway, like a materialized haze, weighed heavily on each of their hearts, making it almost impossible to breathe. The water stains on the wall, twisted like human faces, seemed to be infused with deeper resentment by some evil force, becoming even more hideous and terrifying, as if they would break free from the wall at any moment and devour them completely.
Ouyang Zhenghao's breathing became rapid and heavy. With each labored inhale, he could clearly smell the nauseating, pungent stench of decay and rust. The smell seemed to seep deep into his bones, causing his internal organs to churn. "The evil in this building is getting stronger and stronger. I feel like every step I take is like I'm approaching an endless abyss. That unknown danger is staring us down, ready to drag us into an irretrievable doom." He muttered softly, his voice filled with fear and unease, his eyes frantically searching the darkness. The slightest movement would instantly strain his already fragile nerves. His heart was filled with fear, as if he were trapped in a nightmare from which he could never wake up, with terror lurking in every corner, ready to devour him. He couldn't help but wonder if he could ever escape this cursed building alive. The fear of his unknown fate made his body tremble slightly.
Chen Yao gripped the instrument tightly, her eyes fixed on the frantic dance of abnormal data, her gaze filled with solemnity and anxiety. "The magnetic field is becoming increasingly turbulent, far beyond normal fluctuations. The temperature is also plummeting. This extreme change is simply beyond imagination. Moreover, I can clearly sense an extremely strong and sinister negative energy swirling around us like a surging tide. The supernatural forces hidden within this building are probably far beyond our previous expectations. What kind of entity could cause such a terrifying phenomenon?" Chen Yao said, her voice trembling slightly. Although as an expert in the occult, she had witnessed many bizarre supernatural scenes, this experience left her feeling an unprecedented sense of immense pressure and deep confusion. Her mind raced, trying to find clues to explain this from her knowledge. However, every possible theory only made her feel more uneasy and fearful.
Lin Yu's brows were tightly knitted into a deep "川" (Chuan) frown, as if it could pinch a fly to death. He knew that the situation had reached an extremely critical moment, but as the undisputed core of the team, he had to remain calm in this storm of fear, because he knew clearly that his every move and every word was related to the life and death of his teammates. "Everyone must hold on! We have gone through countless hardships and dangers to get to this point, and we must not fail. We must uncover the secrets hidden behind this building to have any hope of survival. Everyone, be vigilant and pay close attention to everything around you. Any seemingly insignificant detail may become the key to solving this nightmare." Lin Yu said, his voice full of unquestionable determination, trying to pass on his remaining shred of confidence to his teammates who were also in the abyss of fear. However, his heart was also filled with worry and fear. This unknown powerful force was like an invisible mountain, pressing him so hard that he could hardly breathe. He kept reminding himself to keep a clear head and lead everyone to find a glimmer of hope, but the fear that followed him like a shadow always lingered in his heart, making his heart beat faster and faster.
As they trudged to the tenth floor, the sight before them made them gasp. A faint red mist had seemingly filled the corridor. It drifted slowly like a thin veil, yet it held a chilling, dense quality, as if concealing countless unspeakable horrors and evils. Enshrouded in this eerie fog, the already dim and eerie corridor became even more oppressive and terrifying. Lights flickered in the mist, casting distorted and eerie shadows, as if a group of demons from hell were dancing freely, mocking their insignificance and helplessness.
"This red mist... feels extremely evil, as if some extremely terrifying evil will is secretly surging in it." Lin Yu said in a low voice. He slowly stretched out his hand, trying to touch the mist. However, as soon as his fingertips touched the mist, a piercing coldness instantly hit him, as if he had touched ice that had not melted for thousands of years. Moreover, there seemed to be an invisible and powerful force trying to swallow his hand alive. He pulled his hand back abruptly, a trace of fear and vigilance flashed in his eyes, and he secretly thought to himself that this mist was definitely not formed naturally, and must be closely related to the evil supernatural power in the building. If he moved forward rashly, he would probably fall into a place of no return.
Ouyang Zhenghao watched Lin Yu's movements, his heart skipping a beat as a chill ran through his head. "Is this fog poisonous? Should we retreat quickly and find some protective gear before trying again? If we continue this recklessly, I'm afraid we'll all die here." Ouyang Zhenghao's eyes revealed an unprecedented level of hesitation and fear. In the face of this fog filled with unknown dangers, his usual courage and decisiveness seemed to be instantly ripped away. At this moment, he was filled with only a deep fear of death and a deep concern for whether he could escape alive.
