After discovering this news, Du Yuqi felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. The laboratory cabinet that stores such important items and reagents must be temperature-, waterproof and humidity-controlled. If he is lucky enough, he may be able to find what he wants on the third floor.
However, at this moment, the entrance to the third floor - maybe even the entire third floor was filled with black mist that was rolling like a life of its own - Du Yuqi didn't think it was a wise choice to go in. Even though he had a companion like Asura who could fight without relying on vision, he was unwilling to take the risk. After all, the unknown threat below had caused the entire research laboratory to be abandoned, which even meant that the powerful empire hundreds of years ago was powerless to do anything about it!
At this time, Xi seemed to have read Du Yuqi's hesitation, and after hesitating for a moment, he said:
"Or maybe we can change our thinking? Entering the black fog is a very dangerous thing, so can we try to get rid of it? After all, this thing has existed for hundreds of years, and I happen to know some ways to get rid of similar things?"
Du Yuqi's eyes lit up and he said:
"Good idea, shall we start now? What can I do to help?"
Evening Road:
"Gather everything that can be burned and pile it up over here."
Du Yuqi said:
"Yes, yes! That's right, fire is indeed the nemesis of this dark and unclean thing. If it can't be ignited, then I have a few bottles of white wine here to help the fire. Hey, what's in this small bottle? It looks a bit disgusting, but it seems to be able to help the fire?"
Xi came over, took a look and said:
"This is egg white oil, and it looks to be of pretty good quality. It's very easy to ignite!"
Du Yuqi said:
"Well, this thing is actually stored in a ceramic jar, which is really unique. It's a pity that it's missing a little."
Evening Road:
"Protein oil is somewhat corrosive, so a ceramic jar is the most suitable for it. Even though it's just a small bottle, it's just as effective as the liquor you brought. Move it over here and pour it on."
As the two chatted, they quickly took action. There were still many flammable materials on the second floor, especially outside the warehouse door. The environment there had been dry for hundreds of years, and there were many things that could be ignited by flames. In addition, Du Yuqi's strength at this time was comparable to that of a human bulldozer, so it didn't take too long before enough debris to fill up a room was piled up at the entrance.
At this time, Du Yuqi pushed a cart over. This cart was designed to move along the track on the floor of the warehouse. He then piled flammable materials on the cart, ignited them, and waited for them to burn. Then he pushed the cart to the entrance from the second to the third floor and pushed it down.
Because of the existence of the underground track, the cart piled with flammable materials accelerated and slid into the depths of the black fog. It was burning like an oversized torch, and it quickly penetrated into the interior of the black fog. The flames kept jumping and flashing, and the black fog immediately seemed to surge and twist as if it were alive, trying to gather around the cart, as if to put it out.
However, the second burning cart was pushed down from above, followed by the third, the fourth...
The flammable materials on the four carts that collided with each other fell down, which undoubtedly made the fire more fierce and fierce. However, the deep black fog also showed a strong rebound trend, lingering around madly, like a huge black python tightly clamping the flames, and from time to time, mutated and distorted faces appeared in the air, and some hoarse roars were emitted from the air from time to time.
After seeing this scene, Xi said in surprise:
"It looks like a stronger version of the Evil Spirit Mist. How come even the Empire can't handle it?"
As Xi spoke, he began to gather strength, and then fired a mind cannon. In the dazzling light, the horrible black fog let out a shrill scream, and then was shattered. The black fog dispersed into wisps of air, like countless winding little snakes, crawling towards the darkness.
Seeing Xi easily defeat the fog, Du Yuqi breathed a sigh of relief, and then rushed into the third floor impatiently.
Compared with the well-organized laboratories on the two floors above, the third floor looks like a slaughterhouse. Huge hanging chains and sharp, dark hooks and saws frequently appear in the field of vision. One can even imagine that when it is operating at full capacity, blood and tissue fluid must be flowing everywhere, internal organs and severed limbs are piled everywhere, terrible wails and painful pleas for mercy appear alternately, and even the air is filled with blood and stench!
"Test Site A-8..." Du Yuqi muttered to himself while carefully looking at the words and patterns on the wall, hoping to find this site used for high-risk experiments as soon as possible.
In fact, hundreds of years ago, the biochip was sent to the experimental cabinet there, waiting to be implanted in those miserable test subjects. At this time, the test subjects must be dead, and I just hope that the chip can still be intact in the experimental cabinet.
After entering here, Du Yuqi had a vaguely uncomfortable feeling in his heart. His instinct seemed to be urging him to leave. Even the Bone of Hess in his hand made a warning sound from time to time. As the saying goes, divine artifacts have spirits, so Du Yuqi could not help but take such a sign seriously.
But he still felt unwilling in his heart. The purpose of his group's trip was within reach. It would only take a few minutes, no! Even tens of seconds. Maybe they could find a good biochip, and then the whole team could return safely. However, if they missed it, what would they have to face? The dwarf's giant golden hammer was damaged to a terrible unknown, and the mysterious power that even the second awakening strongman didn't know whether he was alive or dead! !
It was because of this thought that Du Yuqi continued to search with a frown. He had already reached the depths of the third floor without realizing it. A faint red light was coming from the front. He squinted his eyes. He didn't want to make any more noise, but when he saw a mottled number on the wall: A-5, he had no choice but to keep moving forward. However, the strange buzzing sound in his ears became even stronger.
At this time, Du Yuqi could almost conclude that the mysterious buzzing sound should be coming from where the red light was coming from. However, he did not pay attention to this, but continued to pay close attention to the letters on the wall. That was the only thing he cared about at this time.
"A-7, A-7... Why hasn't it appeared yet?" He even felt a little anxious in his heart.
But at this moment, Xi, who had been working separately from him, came running from a distance, with a serious face and said loudly:
"We have to leave immediately. I have a bad feeling. Something big is going to happen!"
Du Yuqi took a deep breath and said seriously:
"I have found the A-6 test site! The biochip is at A-8! I may be taking a risk now, but it is better for me to take a risk alone than for the whole team to take a greater risk together later!"
Xi shook his head and said loudly:
"But……"
She seemed to have only said half of the sentence before she stopped talking. Du Yuqi was startled and thought something had happened to her. After a closer look, she realized that Xi was not silent. Her mouth was still opening and closing, but no sound came out. Wait! Was she silent, or was he no longer able to hear the sound she made?
After noticing this abnormality, Du Yuqi discovered something extremely strange. Xi was clearly running towards him, but why did she seem to be getting farther and farther away in his sight? And increasingly blurred.
"No!! There must be something wrong!"
Du Yuqi screamed in his heart and turned around suddenly, only to find that even the light around him began to dim gradually. Wisps of black aura began to float around him. Not only that, but a strange and ethereal voice came, repeating over and over again, which sounded like both a command and an instruction!
"Look...into my eyes!!"
"Look...into my eyes!!"
"Look...into my eyes!!"
"Look...into my eyes!!"
“…”
