Chapter 418: Shadow Symbiosis, Another One? ! !
[Shadow Symbiosis] (Gold)
Your shadow is not just a reflection of light, but an independent existence that is gradually awakening. It will become your second body, living and dancing with you.
You can swap places with your shadow at any time, or let it take a fatal blow for you in a life-or-death situation.
The strength of your shadow is closely related to your agility attribute. The higher your agility, the stronger it is and the longer it can last each day. "Your shadow is your most loyal partner and your most dangerous enemy!"
When you see the golden light, will you still see the silver and bronze? Just like a top-notch beauty appears on the bed, her charm is enough to make people infatuated, will you still miss the gentle touch of the technician in the club, or the innocent smile of the girl washing your hair in the barber shop?
You will! Yes, men are so kind that even when faced with the most dazzling choice, they will still have a little attachment to them in their hearts.
But if you can only choose one -
“I choose gold.”
The man murmured quietly, without a trace of hesitation in his tone.
[You have obtained the golden entry - Shadow Symbiosis!] In an instant, the man's soles gently landed on the ground, stepping into the sewer pipe, and the tip of his shoes touched the surface of the turbid and smelly sewage.
The sewage rippled slightly, creating ripples that reflected his blurry shadow.
“The water is a little icy!”
A strange feeling suddenly arose in the man's heart, as if not only the soles of his shoes were in contact with the sewage, but his entire body was soaked in the icy sewage.
The coldness spread from the soles of his feet, crawling up his spine and all over his body, as if countless cold hands were gently caressing his skin.
He looked down at his feet. The soles of his shoes were clearly only lightly touching the water, but the feeling of coldness that permeated his whole body was extremely real.
Fortunately, he had long been accustomed to low temperatures and was extremely resistant to cold.
He lowered his head, looking at the turbid water, and a faint line of blood appeared on his retina - [10/10].
The man showed a strange smile on his face, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"Okay, okay, it really is a golden entry. Another one, right?!!"
The man really wanted to stop and study his shadow carefully, explore its "body structure", and see what kind of surprises this newly awakened "second body" could bring him.
However, another figure always lingered in his heart - Yu Huai.
His love for Yu Huai was so deep that it was almost paranoid, even surpassing his curiosity and expectations about his own shadow.
That concern was like the red string tied by a matchmaker, firmly tied around his ankles, pulling him and making him unable to stop.
"Shadow, let's get to know each other better later."
He said to Shadow very apologetically: "Right now, my Yuhuai is the most important."
The man stepped lightly, and the sole of his shoe skimmed over the muddy sewage like a dragonfly skimming the water, barely causing a ripple.
His steps seemed slow, but in fact they were incredibly fast. After several changes of pace to speed up, his figure was already moving through the shadows of the sewer like a ghost.
Behind him, a series of lifelike shadows were left.
….. “Did you hear…any strange noises?”
The female assistant suddenly stopped, turned her head sharply to look behind her, clenched her cell phone tightly with her fingers, and turned the brightness of the cell phone to the highest level.
The rusty pipe was 4 meters high, and it had a bluish-black metallic luster under the strong light, like the rotten ribs of a giant beast.
Wet moss clung to the pipe walls like abscesses. The pipes twisted and extended to different forks, outlining darker shadows at the edge of the phone's light, as if countless intertwined giant pythons were slowly wriggling in the darkness.
"Senior Sister? Is that you?"
The female assistant asked softly, her voice echoing in the maze-like sewer pipes, and the echo was inexplicably creepy when it fell into her ears.
"Don't shout, the sisters are all in front, we should be catching up with the target soon."
The female doctor pursed her swollen lips, her tone full of anxiety.
She tapped the frame lightly, and the lens emitted a white light, projecting a virtual map of the underground pipeline in the air.
On the map, intricate pipes stretched out like a spider web. In the distance, after a few turns, one could clearly see seven black dots and one red dot approaching rapidly, as if they would overlap in the next second.
"Look, the sisters are about to catch up with the target." said the female doctor.
The female assistant hesitated for a moment, her voice trembling: "But behind me... there really is a strange sound."
"It should be a mouse!" The female doctor frowned.
Tick-tock——
A drop of cold water suddenly fell on the back of the female assistant's neck, and then, a clearer and more rapid sound of water echoed from farther away, like a pouring rain, violently hitting the water, splashing countless tiny and dense raindrops.
The female assistant raised her cell phone stiffly, her trembling fingers barely able to hold the faint light.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
She slowly moved the beam of her phone toward the top of the tube wall.
What came into view was the moss-covered and mottled tube wall, and on this tube wall, there were densely packed, terrifying scarlet eyes!
Thousands of furry rats, baring their sharp teeth, hung upside down on the pipe walls, their claws deeply embedded in the rusty metal, their bodies rising and falling as they crawled rapidly.
Dark yellow rusty water seeped out from the cracks in the pipe wall, dripped along the mouse's hair, making a "tick, tick" sound.
The female assistant was not mistaken, there was indeed a strange noise behind her.
The female doctor was not wrong, the strange noise did come from the mouse.
They just didn't expect that there would be so many rats? The female assistant's throat seemed to be strangled by something, and she couldn't make a sound.
The light from her cell phone swept across the wall of the tube, and those scarlet eyes moved slightly with the movement of the light, staring at her in unison.
She finally managed to squeeze out a sound, but found that she didn't even have the courage to turn around.
"You think... could it be these rats that irritated the senior sisters?" the female assistant asked as if something had suddenly occurred to her.
The female doctor was also stunned. Her gaze, through the lenses, was fixed on the densely packed, grinning mice.
The virtual map projected in the air was trembling slightly, as if even it could feel the terrifying atmosphere.
She couldn't help but mutter to herself that every time her female assistant gave an answer, it seemed so inappropriate.
This was the case the last time I reminded myself of the time, and it was the same before when I forced myself to wake up with a fan, and it’s the same this time!
"Is this assistant poisonous?"
The female doctor secretly decided in her heart that if she could survive today, she would definitely replace this assistant.
She took a deep breath, the cold air filling her lungs.
The next second, she turned around and ran away without looking back, while yelling at the female assistant: "Stop them and find out whether they provoked the sisters!"
