Chapter 1042 An earthquake?



I thought to myself, "What am I complaining about?"

The girl and I both focused our attention, maximizing the light effect of the wristbands on our wrists, hoping they would have some effect.

However, despite this, I found that this light could not illuminate the surrounding area at all!

Instead, the shadows around us are now slowly closing in, our visible space is shrinking, the workbench is turning gray, and the blue-armored man's clothes are also gradually turning gray...

Holy crap, no way!

My heart sank, and I really didn't know what to say. We never expected to see this scene.

I gritted my teeth and tried my best to make the bracers even more powerful, but the bracers seemed to have their light locked up and wouldn't expand any further.

This light only illuminated a small area and could not expand further. I was extremely anxious looking at this scene.

"run!"

"Lightning Strike Sword!"

I shouted twice, once to the girl and once to Lei Jijian in a telepathic way, telling him to turn the lightning up to its maximum at the same time.

Without hesitation, Lei Jijian's electric arc surged up, instantly illuminating the entire room.

I looked closely and saw that the direction of the door had now turned into a high wall, pitch black, as if it had a magical power to lure us inside, without a trace of a door.

I stared at this scene speechlessly, gritting my teeth as I said: "Is this any way for anyone to live?!"

It's the same old trick again. Isn't this the same tactic used by that businessman before?

I quickly turned around and let the lightning sword illuminate another direction, but that other direction was still high and dark, with no escape route visible to the naked eye.

I can't believe that this place is completely uncontrolled. How could it change the direction of the door on its own, or even make the door disappear?

Could it be that we're really going to be trapped here?

I thought to myself somewhat anxiously.

Although there is no immediate danger, the bizarre scenes here are really hard for me to accept.

Without hesitation, I continued walking in the same direction. Then I used the lightning sword to illuminate the other two directions, and upon closer inspection, I saw that there were still two walls in the corners.

I know this is very likely an illusion. I guess that as long as I keep walking in the direction of that door, it is very likely the only way out!

As I thought this, the light emitted by the lightning sword seemed to immediately lose its effectiveness.

The surrounding shadows were also menacing, pressing in on us piece by piece, as if they were about to engulf us.

I knew this thing would absorb light of varying degrees; first it absorbed the light from the wristband on my hand, and finally Old Liu's flashlight.

Even the light emitted by the Thunderstrike Sword is now struggling to compete with the darkness before it.

As the shadow grew larger, I suddenly felt a jolt beneath my feet, and almost simultaneously I grabbed the girl's hand and pulled her forward.

It's definitely not safe here anymore, that's what I was thinking. I guess the girl could see that clearly at this point.

At this moment, the scene before them was definitely ominous!

Without further hesitation, I suddenly felt something moving beneath my feet. The stone bricks inside then lifted up with a loud "boom" before falling heavily back down.

I felt as if the branches on the table suddenly started to flutter and fly around. Although it was just a few simple vibrations, it was as if a strong wind had blown them everywhere.

The smog, which smelled somewhat rotten and acrid, rushed into my nostrils in an instant.

I felt nauseous; it was a taste that was even more unpleasant than the previous fishy-sweet one.

This smell makes me wonder if I'm in a pile of dead bodies.

It was at this moment that I remembered what Lao Liu had said before: a pile of dead bodies that had appeared out of nowhere around the roundabout.

I suspect this matter is definitely related to the superficial level.

Those managers definitely have some inside information, and if it's a similar situation, then this blue-armored guy is probably involved as well.

The thought of this outcome sent a chill down my spine.

I suddenly realized that the shadows around us had moved closer to us.

It's as if it's being manipulated by someone.

I had absolutely no idea what was in the shadows or whether there were any living people there.

If there were any shady dealings or evil people here, I doubt they would be able to sense it now.

Besides, at this point, I no longer had time to ask Lei Jijian; it was indeed a matter of utmost urgency.

As I watched the shadow closing in, my heart was filled with overwhelming worry.

Then, I felt the vibrations in the room getting stronger and stronger, as if they were going to shake us both up!

"An earthquake?"

The girl screamed and grabbed my arm tightly.

But as I stared at the scene before me, I couldn't quite understand what was going on.

It did feel a bit like an earthquake was about to happen, but I also felt a strange sense of relaxation in my body!

I feel like we're not standing on the ground, but floating in the water!

Although it is indeed in water, there is gravity and oxygen in it.

It's basically the same as on the ground, but I feel so relaxed right now.

Why did the girl feel a sudden heaviness? She even said it was going to be an earthquake!

"It's not an earthquake, it's a trap!"

At that moment, the Thunder Strike Sword was also shouting in my mind.

The moment he said that, I immediately sensed that this might be the truth!

There really seems to be some kind of mechanism inside...

My mind was a complete mess, I couldn't make sense of anything, and then I heard Lei Jijian's next shout.

"Master, run outside quickly! This place... I think it's going to collapse!"

Lei Jijian was absolutely right. The lightness I just felt seemed to be created by a mechanism.

And right now, my feet are trembling violently!

"Master, run outside quickly! This place is too dangerous!"

Seeing that I hadn't moved an inch, he anxiously guided me.

I reacted immediately and grabbed the girl, rushing towards the metal door. But just as we reached the door, I heard a loud bang!

The iron gate seemed to have closed by itself.

But just now this was just a wall, how did it suddenly turn into a door?

I know this is very likely because we were hallucinating before, but now it seems that the door is indeed closed!
