Chapter 122: Fierce Beasts
This can be regarded as Ling Ran's first time exploring alone. It is the starting point of his growth after leaving Mo Wen, and it is also a desire to see where his limit is.
So Ling Ran hunched his back, holding the handrail of the stairs with one hand and carefully moved up, not daring to even breathe, and walked very lightly, not daring to make the slightest sound.
“Tick-tock.”
The sound of dripping water coming from outside the corridor made Ling Ran feel down. He retracted his foot, which was about to step onto the previous step, and waited quietly.
Only after making sure that the environment was still dead silent did Ling Ran continue to climb up.
After climbing to the third floor, the voice-controlled light bulb still did not turn on, which was enough to prove how cautious Ling Ran was.
Only the moonlight shining through the small window in the corridor could provide a negligible amount of light.
In the darkness, there was a hint of coldness flashing in the depths of Ling Ran's eyes.
As an entry-level cultivator, Ling Ran could still vaguely see the outline of each step of the stairs, so he would not accidentally step on empty air and fall.
"Boss, how long will it take to find this?"
"Look carefully."
"The human was badly injured."
When we were on the sixth floor, the sound came from the office area outside again.
It was a strange sound, not the one I heard outside just now.
Ling Ran quietly walked to the door at the entrance of the corridor and looked inside through the crack.
"Human?"
Ling Ran's eyes were full of doubts. Could it be that the guy inside was not a human?
Unfortunately, it was still pitch black inside, and Ling Ran could only vaguely see two huge figures rummaging around in the office. They didn't search every corner, and the corridor separated by a door was also messy with various documents scattered around.
"I seem to smell the scent of humans."
Suddenly, one of the figures turned his head.
The reason why Ling Ran knew it turned back was because of its pair of eyes as red as rubies in the darkness.
And it was getting closer, and gradually, Ling Ran could see it clearly.
It was very tall and very big, more than three meters tall. When walking in the corridor, this creature had to lower his head. Behind him followed another guy who was a little bit closer to him but was more than half a height taller than an ordinary human.
"What should I do? What should I do?"
Ling Ran was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth to prevent himself from making a sound accidentally, but the cold light in his eyes disappeared, leaving only fear.
However, the Ice Art involuntarily enveloped Ling Ran, cutting off her aura.
It seems that she still hasn't adapted to her identity as a cultivator.
There was only a door between them, and the big guy outside the door was leaning on the window, looking down at the scene in the corridor.
"Boss, is this an illusion?"
The smaller guy at the back pushed aside the larger guy and looked around before saying.
"There was indeed a human presence just now."
The big guy's voice was very confused.
They eat with their noses, how could they be wrong?
But it heard no sound and saw nothing, which made it very hesitant.
"Let's go find that human."
Then the big guy said again.
"Boss, what on earth did that human do?"
"Those overlords were annihilated when they rushed in a few days ago. Why are we rushing in without caring about our lives?"
The little guy followed behind and asked.
"Don't ask if you're not supposed to know."
"We just need to be cautious."
"I don't think I'll ever meet a human monster."
After saying that, there was another messy churning sound from inside.
"call!"
Ling Ran, who was squatting in the corner behind the door, let out a long sigh. She was almost suffocated to death just now.
Fortunately, this is a blind spot, and the two guys just took a look and didn't open the door.
However, Ling Ran also saw their appearance clearly, and the psychological impact was great.
The big guy is an animal that looks like a brown bear, and the small guy behind it is even more terrifying.
It turned out to be a hideous wolf!
If the brown bear could walk upright, Ling Ran could still take over, but what about the wolf?
It is true that there are strange beasts in this world.
But those strange beasts are creatures created by this environment, they are mutated beings.
These two guys can only be called animals, they don't even meet the standards of exotic beasts.
“Boom!”
"There's a fight going on up there!"
Just as Ling Ran was thinking, there was a explosion from the rooftop, and the two guys who were searching quickly rushed towards Ling Ran again.
“Bang!”
He slapped open the door at the stairs and rushed to the roof.
"hiss!"
After the footsteps faded away, Ling Ran pushed open the door, covered his nose and took a deep breath.
It hurts so much.
Fortunately, her nose was real, otherwise it would have been broken by the door.
But now the danger has been temporarily eliminated, but Zhao Yun above should have been discovered, and then a fight would break out.
Ling Ran was still confident in Zhao Yun's strength. Although he was not as abnormal as Mo Wen, Zhao Yun was still an S-level master after all. Now he was fighting at home, so he could escape if he couldn't win.
"By the way, Mo Wen?"
Thinking of Mo Wen, Ling Ran came to his senses. Looking at the halo surrounding his body, a warm feeling appeared in Ling Ran's eyes again.
She didn't know how to hide like that. No wonder she felt so familiar with it just now. But at that moment when she didn't even dare to breathe, she didn't have time to think too much.
"It's really you, guy."
Ling Ran looked at the halo again and muttered.
Gradually, the halo disappeared, and the familiar icy energy in the body also disappeared without a trace.
This is what Mo Wen left in her body when he saved her.
Ling Ran also knew that the guy had left again.
“Clatter, clatter.”
The sudden sound in the darkness always catches people off guard.
Patting his chest, Ling Ran walked towards the direction of the sound.
This should be what those two guys called humans.
And just now he heard that she was seriously injured. Ling Ran felt that she would not be able to do anything to him.
Push open one of the offices.
Because he was out of danger, Ling Ran even turned on the light.
"What are you doing?"
Then Ling Ran was stunned.
It was a woman covered in blood and with disheveled hair, stuck in a closet.
This cabinet should be used to store documents. It is very large and can easily accommodate one person.
But this cabinet had just been rummaged through by those two guys.
Ling Ran also wanted to know why the girl was not discovered just now.
The two of them stared at each other, and Ling Ran also came in front of the woman.
"You are so smart."
After seeing it clearly, Ling Ran gave a thumbs up and said admiringly.
It turns out that the woman was hiding inside the drawer and could not be seen even if the drawer was opened.
You can only discover her existence if you pull out all the drawers.
"Can you please stop talking nonsense!"
"Can you please help me?"
The woman looked at Ling Ran unhappily and said.
Obviously, hiding the blood and concealing the breath just now had used up all her strength.
