Chapter 352 Dilemma
But.
Although this glass separates the two sides, there is a door on the glass. As long as the door is opened, these "aliens" can come out and communicate with them. Why don't they come out?
The 'aliens' explained to them, "We can come out, but what if we do and scare you? We've seen it on the surveillance footage; you seem quite afraid of us mutants."
Speaking of fear, the person who reacted the most strongly among these people besides Pei Xin was Lan Jin.
Lan Jin explained directly: "I'm fine with everything else, I'm just afraid of bugs with extra legs."
These 'aliens' explained: "But those centipedes are the most docile among these mutant creatures."
What he meant was that you are afraid of even the most docile ones, let alone these half-human, half-beast monsters. What if you try to coax them out and they are struck to death by lightning?
At this moment, not only they were on high alert, but also the "aliens" inside the glass were on high alert.
At this moment, Huang Jinghe, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly pointed to a place behind the glass and asked, "What's behind that?"
Everyone looked in the direction Huang Jinghe pointed. After watching for a while, they could really see that the thing behind was actually an elevator. The number on the display screen at the top of the elevator was still on the 4th floor. If nothing unexpected happened, this elevator should be the one they opened before.
In this way, they really don't have to go back the same way. They just need to take the elevator to the 4th floor and then go out directly from the 4th floor. Of course, maybe this elevator only goes to the 4th floor. It would be even better if it could go to the 1st floor.
However, but.
Huang Jinghe had something else to say. "We've never seen mutants in this villa before, and the mutants just now all appeared out of paintings. Floors 1 through 4 are filled with paintings of mutants. I'm afraid we'll be prey to these mutants as soon as we leave. Leaving this villa won't be easy."
In other words, even if they took the elevator to the 4th floor, they might not be safe.
But they still had to confirm the situation of their only exit. The group walked along the wall, around the glass window, and gradually headed towards the elevator.
The 'aliens' inside the glass also stared at them intently. When Huang Jinghe was about to reach the elevator, the cat-shaped mutant creature suddenly twitched its mouth. Lan Jin quickly slapped Huang Jinghe's hand as he was about to press the elevator button.
Huang Jinghe, who was already very nervous, was suddenly interrupted by Lan Jin. He was immediately startled and asked quickly, "What's wrong, Sister Lan?"
"Don't press it." Lan Jin said seriously. After that, she turned her attention to these "weirdos" and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
laugh?
The group all turned their attention to the glass-like "weirdos", but how could these "weirdos" admit that they laughed?
They said innocently, "Who is laughing? What are you talking about? Us? Why should we laugh?"
"Yeah, you know why you're laughing. Back off, let's go back to the door first."
The group retreated towards the door without hesitation. When they saw them leaving the elevator, the "aliens" looked at them with evil eyes as if filled with poison.
But Lan Jin had no problem opening the elevator. After the group pushed it to the door, Lan Jin said to Huang Jing, "Xiao Huang, use your water ability to press the elevator button."
If something like this were done with plant-based abilities, it would be much easier to do, but the person in their group who had plant-based abilities couldn't use their abilities at all, so she could only settle for Huang Jinghe, who had water-based abilities, to solve the problem.
Huang Jinghe has water-related supernatural powers, which can form water columns. The water columns have strong attack power, and the water is also very soft. There is no problem at all for him to go around a corner and press the elevator button.
In short, after Huang Jinghe used his special abilities, he pressed the down button of the elevator as he wished.
Watching the elevator approaching the -5th floor, the 'aliens' within the glass were so nervous they were practically bursting through the air. The moment the elevator doors opened, countless mutants poured out. They panicked, pressing buttons on the screens, seemingly trying to eliminate each other.
And then, nothing happened.
In such an urgent situation, they naturally had to escape quickly. They were originally standing at the door, and the moment the mutant creatures rushed out, they closed the door as quickly as possible.
Not only that, fearing that a huge number of mutant creatures would break out of the door, Ling Jiang quickly used his special abilities to seal the door in front of him tightly under ice.
Screams were heard one after another. Although they didn't know what was happening inside, it was definitely not a good thing.
The upward elevator was sealed inside the door, and with so many mutant creatures, the way to the top was completely blocked.
However, the original route of return was blocked by many mutant creatures, so they were in a dilemma.
Captain Zhang said, "It's not safe here. Let's go up first."
The group walked upstairs again, but perhaps they heard the miserable screams, and the mutant creatures that were blocked by the ice on the 4th floor all rushed towards the ice surface.
Don't bring it up now. We are in a dilemma right here at the stairs.
Pei Xin said: "This is not right. How can we be trapped and die? I don't want to die here. You guys should think of a solution quickly."
Lao Gao was speechless and said, "Is this something that ordinary people can come up with? We don't have any tools here, otherwise we could just dig a path out of the ground."
Lao Shi replied, "Your idea is as good as nothing. Even if we had the tools, we can't dig a tunnel ourselves. Do you know how high this four-story building is? It won't take just a few days to dig it out."
"Instead of trying to dig through it, why don't you look for other ways to go here?" Shen Zhiyu said, "The main thing is that I think the roads below are complicated and there may be some secret passages or escape routes here."
Escape route?
When this was mentioned, Xi Yu, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly thought of something. He said, "I might know where there is another way. When we were on the boat before, Professor Pei told me that if I encountered any difficulties, I should go left."
Just as everyone was waiting for his next words, Xi Yu had already finished speaking.
