After deciding on the location, Lu Yuan began his climb, which was quite arduous.
Since there were no safety precautions, if Lu Yuan lost his grip, he might fall into the elevator shaft.
The elevator shaft was hundreds of meters deep and had no support points. Lu Yuan could only reach out and grab onto some protruding parts above to move forward.
After walking about a few hundred meters, Lu Yuan felt that his arms were gradually losing their support for his body.
After adjusting his position, he found a hammer and broke through the concrete layer above, exposing the steel bars inside. Then he found a rope to secure himself.
"Damn it, I'm so tired. It's really unrealistic to move several kilometers like this. I guess I have to think of a better way!"
At that moment, a series of cracking sounds came from above. Lu Yuan judged that the steel frame in the distance was starting to break.
Large numbers of steel frames began to break, and various loud noises echoed throughout the urban area.
The loud rumbling noises were caused by the steel frame hitting the building.
The sound of boulders falling into the water was also mixed in.
Lu Yuan didn't know why the steel frame area was collapsing at this time. Perhaps it was because the termites were trying to escape from their nest, which caused the steel frame structure to become unstable and triggered a series of fractures.
Then, another violent shaking occurred in the elevator shaft.
Lu Yuan even felt the concrete layer begin to fluctuate violently, which gave him an ominous premonition.
"Is the building about to collapse? But there's no steel frame here!"
So Lu Yuan took out his flashlight again and looked around, and found that there was no collapse.
However, the tremor just now made Lu Yuan feel uneasy, and he still couldn't find any trace.
"No, we can't let this drag on any longer. If we do, and a flood starts up above, this place will become a vast expanse of water!"
However, as he spoke of this, a sudden thought struck Lu Yuan.
"Flood? That's it! Since the flood can rush in, can I use its power to escape from here?"
But after thinking about it, Lu Yuan felt that something was still missing.
"That's it! It's the direction the flood is sweeping! If it's rushing in from the outside, then I'm stuck here! But if it's rushing out from the elevator shaft, then I'm pretty much out of danger!"
Just then, a loud explosion came from above.
Lu Yuan felt the entire building shaking—no, not just the building, but the entire ground—and his arms were trembling violently.
He secured himself as much as possible, and then, to prevent himself from breaking due to the steel bars above, he found a few more steel bars and tied himself to them.
The flashlight in my hand kept shining downwards, and the vibrations above my head grew stronger and stronger.
A series of explosions began to ring out, like waves, approaching from afar, until Lu Yuan felt the entire earth tremble.
His body was swaying back and forth like a leaf in the wind. If it weren't for the rope, he might not have been able to even hold onto the steel bars.
Then, a raging gale began to surge into the elevator shaft. Lu Yuan felt as if a giant beast was throwing down large amounts of wind and moving upwards from below the elevator shaft.
"The wind is blowing out of the elevator shaft! That means the floodwaters are rushing out from the elevator shaft! That's great!"
Lu Yuan felt a surge of excitement.
A whooshing sound came from the elevator shaft, like a giant beast roaring down below.
Lu Yuan felt a sudden panic. He even considered entering the dimensional space, but he didn't. Once inside, he knew he could fall into the city at any moment, and if a building collapsed on him, he would have no chance of escaping.
Lu Yuan was extremely nervous. He kept shining his flashlight around and felt the wind below getting stronger and stronger, causing his body to sway back and forth.
The wind force seemed to have reached level 10 or so. Lu Yuan had no fixed location. Apart from the rope hanging from his waist to keep him stable, there was no other place to go.
He tried to make his body lighter, but suddenly a violent impact rang out, and the bottom of the elevator shaft was knocked askew.
Then a large amount of floodwater rushed into the elevator shaft, and the water level began to rise continuously. Lu Yuan felt a little nervous; he could hardly believe that the floodwater was rising so fast.
Besides the sound of the wind, I could hear the sound of water, as well as the sounds of violent explosions above, buildings collapsing, and rocks breaking off and falling into the water.
Countless sounds intertwined, making it impossible for Lu Yuan to even hear his own heartbeat.
He held his breath, trying his best to stay calm. He had already prepared the very sturdy wooden box, but after looking at it, Lu Yuan wondered if it could withstand the damage from the collapse of the rock layer.
As the water level continued to rise, he felt extremely anxious and didn't know what to do.
The floodwaters, carrying huge waves of heat, kept blowing towards Lu Yuan, and he was covered in layers of sweat. Lu Yuan felt that he was completely soaked.
