"Fuck!" Jin Sen shouted, "It's right under me!"
He was right. The next moment, An Zhe felt the ground beneath his feet shaking dully. The feeling was very close and real, like a heavy hammer hitting the opposite side of the floor.
At this moment, there was another banging sound from the end of the corridor. The iron door banged loudly, accompanied by the panicked screams of the prisoners over there.
"There are some there too." The poet's speech speed suddenly increased: "Underground creatures, are they rodents? They live in groups, and the Virginia base is--"
Before he finished speaking, he quickly changed his mouth: "That's right, rodents don't have that much power, underground..."
The sound of hurried footsteps rang out, and a team of black-clothed soldiers quickly came down the stairs of the corridor. The light of flashlights flickered, and the sound of loudspeakers echoed in the corridor, deafening: "Don't panic, the foundation of the city defense post is very solid, with added cement and special steel plates. We are finding out the reason, don't panic."
- If they hadn't shouted and quickly opened the cell door to let the prisoners out, this would have seemed more credible.
At the same time, a piercing sound rang out outside, and the alarm sounded up and down like waves.
"The evacuation signal has sounded!" Jin Sen slapped the cell door with all his strength: "Brother! Open it for me!"
The soldier hurriedly opened the three cell doors in the distance, and then hurried over. Boss Xiao was outside. After the soldier found the key corresponding to the cell door, he quickly inserted the lock core. With a click, the iron door was opened, and Boss Xiao almost jumped out. The soldier quickly said: "Turn right and go upstairs to find the exit!"
Boss Xiao staggered a few times, then ran to the right. The ceiling was covered with dust. The soldier wiped his face and stood in front of the poet's door.
At this time, Jin Sen shouted loudly: "He is a serious criminal! He is dangerous! You open mine first!"
The soldier seemed to hesitate for a moment, and the ground shook more violently. He turned around to open Jin Sen's cell door.
Jin Sen grabbed the iron door with both hands, and his voice trembled violently: "Brother, hurry up, brother."
An Zhe saw that the soldier's hands were also shaking, and after several attempts, the key was inserted into the lock.
Jin Sen: "You are my real brother--"
The voice stopped abruptly.
The floor creaked, and his whole body was lifted up suddenly, and a black object suddenly bounced up against the broken floor and dust!
With a dull "puff" sound, Jin Sen's body was squeezed between the monster and the ceiling, his eyeballs popped out, his abdomen was opened by something sharp, blood mixed with internal organs dripped down. With a scream of extreme misery, An Zhe's pupils dilated, and he slowly turned his head. The soldier who opened the door was squeezed and twisted by the iron door, piercing his legs and right chest. He hugged his legs and rolled on the ground, twitching and coughing violently, with blood foam constantly pouring out of his mouth, but his lungs were pierced.
With a "bang", the black thing fell back heavily, creating a hole in the ground. There was nothing underneath, and Jin Sen's body fell in and could no longer be seen.
From deep in the corridor came the roar of other soldiers: "Withdraw--!"
But in the next second, the sound of the ground cracking also sounded over there, the iron door clanged to the ground, and the ceiling shattered and fell down. Two sounds full of fear rang out, and then stopped abruptly.
——Anzhe heard the chewing sound.
The prelude was the sound of water, then the dull friction sound, the sound of limbs squeezing each other, and finally the sound of bones creaking and then breaking.
The sound came from the end of the corridor and from the underground cave opposite Anzhe.
As the soldier twitched and rolled, his flashlight fell to the ground, rolling a few times, and the pale beam of light shone on the dark crack.
A mycelium stretched out from the crack of the iron gate, and more mycelium spread over. They gathered together, hooked up the keys scattered on the ground, and slowly dragged them back into the iron gate. The keys rubbed against the floor, making a crackling sound. An Zhe saw the soldier looked at himself with fear, but he didn't care so much. He knew that the soldier also cared so much because he was dying.
He asked the person next door: "Which door am I?"
The poet's voice trembled: "17, are you okay?"
"Fine." An Zhe said. He estimated that his iron gate was level with the poet's. The poet's vision was limited, and he saw him hooking the key away.
The mycelium retracted, and he quickly grabbed the keys, found No. 17, and took it off.
The chewing sound accelerated.
The mycelium held No. 17 and stretched out from the iron gate again. One part of the mycelium stuck to the iron gate to find the position of the keyhole, and the other part inserted the key. The mycelium was very fragile and had limited strength. More and more mycelium gathered together, and the key was finally twisted. With a click, the lock core popped open.
An Zhe grabbed the remaining key tightly, pushed open the door and came to the next door. His hands were shaking a little. He took out the No. 18 key, then poked it into the keyhole with the residual light of the flashlight and twisted it hard. The chewing sound stopped completely at this moment.
"Oh my God..." A young man broke through the door and stumbled out. An Zhe didn't even have time to see his face clearly. He dragged him over the soldier's body and ran to the only safe corridor on the right. The ground was still shaking. There were only two things under the ground.
At this moment, the emergency light in front flashed a few times and went out completely. The front fell into complete darkness.
Anzhe heard the poet beside him gasping for breath: "Don't look back."
But Anzhe still turned his head back uncontrollably.
A worm. A
black worm as wide as half the corridor.
Its body is like a snake, but divided into obvious segments. At this time, it swam out of the crack in the ground, raised its head and faced itself and the poet - or rather, the head. It has no eyes, no structure that a head should have, and there is a round mouth at the front of its body, which is filled with dense teeth.
And behind it, another identical worm swam over. The two mouthparts, which were densely packed with teeth and squeezed against each other, looked towards them at the same time. A rustling sound was heard. They were coming towards them, not slowing down at all. There was a distance of more than ten meters between them. An Zhe could smell the fishy smell on them.
