Chapter 357 Abnormal Pollution Fluctuation
Corpse.
There were corpses everywhere.
Most of these corpses were twisted into the appearance of monsters, but perhaps because they were not completely twisted into monsters, the bullets that pierced their heads killed them all without exception.
Lin Jiu would occasionally see polluted creatures gnawing on these corpses.
These unintelligent creatures were extremely excited when they discovered Lin Jiu, but in the next second they would turn into a corpse that was no different from those corpses.
Along the way, Lin Jiu encountered many monsters.
The sticky black blood splattered everywhere. Lin Jiu raised his hand and casually wiped the black blood off his face, then continued to move towards the coordinate point.
Jiang Wan would occasionally send messages to check on him, but Lin Jiu didn't reply to all of them. He would only reply with [1] or [.] when he remembered, to prove that he was fine.
Since the obstacles along the way posed no threat to Lin Jiu, it was still daylight when he arrived at the company headquarters.
Lin Jiu raised his wrist and sent a message to Jiang Wan:
【X0704: I'm here.】
【System prompt: Message sending failed.】
Lin Jiu was stunned.
He clicked on the red exclamation mark, and after turning it twice, it still showed that the message failed to be sent.
Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows and looked up at the high-rise building in front of him that seemed to be deserted. He knew that he had lost contact with Jiang Wan.
It seems that there is something in it?
Although he was curious, Lin Jiu did not forget why he came here. He walked into the security company and soon saw the team's car.
It seems that everything is normal up to this point.
After confirming that there was no one in the car, Lin Jiu walked into the security company.
Everything was the same as I remembered, except that it had become extremely deserted, a little run-down, and covered in dust.
After taking a quick look, Lin Jiu headed straight towards the armory.
Along the way, Lin Jiu also found traces of that team.
However, when they arrived at the armory, it was empty.
Lin Jiu was not surprised. He looked at the bullet box on the ground and his eyes fell on the footprints on the ground.
Through these footprints, Lin Jiu began to simulate the situation at that time in his mind.
There were five people, two of whom were guarding the door.
Perhaps they had discovered something, but the two men left midway. Of the three people in the armory, one temporarily took up a position to guard the area. Not long after, seeing that the two who had left earlier hadn't returned and there was no movement, the remaining three left the armory to look for someone.
After completing the scene simulation, Lin Jiu walked out of the armory and followed the footprints on the ground to the stairs.
The door to the emergency passage was half-open. Although it was still daytime outside, there was an inexplicably cold and gloomy atmosphere in here, as if as long as the door was pushed open, one would embark on a road of no return.
Lin Jiu felt the danger signal from his instinct but ignored it.
He walked forward and pushed open the door of the emergency passage.
The cold feeling disappeared completely, and the evening sun shone through the corridor, giving people a warm feeling.
Giving people the illusion that this place is very safe is the usual style of Rule Ghost Stories.
Lin Jiu began to walk up the stairs.
The footprints of the previous people can be seen on the stairs. Two of them had their footprints slightly sideways, obviously going upstairs in a cautious posture, but the three people who came later were not like that.
It seems that the two people came here because they heard some noise.
Lin Jiu continued to move forward while paying attention to the footprints.
In the quiet corridor, only his footsteps echoed, gradually making people feel a little uneasy.
Lin Jiu's expression did not change.
This atmosphere was not as terrifying as the sight of him covered in black blood.
In this way, Lin Jiu arrived at the fifth floor safely, which was where the command center was located.
The door of the emergency passage was wide open, and the eerie and uneasy feeling came over him again, but Lin Jiu ignored it and walked in.
The atmosphere is set up like this, isn't it just the hope that people will be curious and go in to commit suicide?
Why are you pretending?
Lin Jiu rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
The command center on the fifth floor looked a bit messy. It seemed that when those people evacuated in a strange way, they had no time to care about order. They just took the important things and hurriedly left the headquarters.
There were a lot of scattered documents on the ground. Lin Jiu bent down, picked up one and took a look at it.
The above content is a report on pollution levels in various places.
The time was half a year ago in the strange world, and the data above showed that everything was normal.
Lin Jiu picked up other papers and took a look, but there was no useful information.
The entire fifth floor was eerily quiet, and with the lights off in the corridors, some areas seemed unusually dim. Lin Jiu put down the paper, stood up, and slowly walked towards the center of the command center.
Lin Jiu did not see any footprints here that could be used to infer the whereabouts of the five people, but he saw traces of fighting.
Not to mention the bullet marks on the wall, just look at the broken glass.
The deeper we went, the more obvious the signs of fighting became. There was glass and blood all over the ground, but not a single body was found.
Arriving at the command center, Lin Jiu pushed open the door and walked in.
It's even more chaotic in here than outside. There are traces of fighting everywhere. The big screen is full of cracks, not to mention the operating console.
Lin Jiu soon spotted several bodies. They had all been disemboweled, not with penetrating wounds, but with large sections of their bodies torn apart. In a corner, he found a team member who was still breathing faintly.
There was no sign of the enemy.
Lin Jiu walked forward and squatted down. The team member seemed to have noticed something, but he was unable to move because he was on the verge of death.
He slowly raised his head, and when he saw Lin Jiu, his eyes widened slightly.
"What happened here?" Lin Jiu asked, "Where are the enemies?"
Even after asking this, Lin Jiu didn't hold much hope.
Looking at the appearance of this team member, it would be a miracle if he could utter a single word.
"No....."
oh.
Miracle of miracles.
"No?" Lin Jiu frowned.
“Look, no…”
Lin Jiu understood that the enemy seemed to be able to become invisible.
"Hurry...go..." The team member raised his hand tremblingly and pointed to a place: "Monitoring...station..."
Lin Jiu turned around and looked, but when he looked back again, the team member was already dead.
He stood up and walked towards the monitoring station.
Although the screen was a little damaged, it seemed that the core part was not damaged and was still functioning normally.
On the data screen, the pollution values were jumping wildly.
Seeing this, Lin Jiu frowned subconsciously.
Something went wrong?
Thinking of what the team member said, Lin Jiu immediately denied this inference.
But if the pollution level keeps changing, Lin Jiu, who is in this area, should be able to sense it...
“Ding ding ding—”
Just then, the machine suddenly sounded an alarm.
Immediately afterwards, a series of loud noises came from outside. Lin Jiu suddenly turned his head and felt that something was approaching here at a very fast speed.
It seems that it must be an invisible monster lurking inside the security company.
Lin Jiu roughly guessed the situation of that thing in his mind.
Can become invisible, cannot see, has sharp hearing...
“Ding ding ding—”
The alarm sounded more and more shrill, and Lin Jiu frowned in annoyance. He subconsciously turned around and wanted to destroy the machine directly, but when he saw the data on it, he stopped.
It shows that the overall pollution value in the entire area is rising sharply.
It was also at this moment that Lin Jiu felt the amount of pollution that far exceeded his body's tolerance limit and instantly engulfed him, even exceeding the feeling Adonis gave him at that time.
Lin Jiu's consciousness was also disconnected at this moment.
