Chapter 242: Blessings and misfortunes (1)
Translator: 549690339
At this time, the elevator door was still closing at the same speed as before. A group of crazy mutant creatures had rushed in the direction of the elevator, and the elevator door was about ten centimeters away from completely closing.
No. 7 felt that the escape in the tunnel and later were already extremely terrifying, but it could not be compared to the current situation. This was the beginning of the psychological test!
When they realized that something was wrong in the tunnel and ran with song Qing, they could still escape even though they knew that something was about to come out of the cage behind them.
But now, she and song qingxiao had nowhere to run. They could only stay in the elevator and watch the giant rats pounce forward.
One, two…
Every time the giant rat in the lead hit the glass, song qingxiao would be on edge.
What was even more frightening was that the hole left on the glass door for retreat had now become a fatal thing.
Fortunately, after these huge white mice’s genetic mutation, it was as if they could not see the obvious hole.
However, as the number of rats rushing up the steps increased, sooner or later, some rats would accidentally rush past this place.
At this time, there was no other way to solve this problem except to pray that the elevator would close soon.
The elevator door was still five or six centimeters away from closing. Every minute and second that had passed was a great mental torture for the two people in the elevator.
Number seven held the brush in his hand. In his fear, he almost forgot to guard against song qingxiao. He jumped to her side and wanted to press the close button with her.
“Hurry up, hurry up …”
She kept repeating these two words as the two of them hit the button one after another. The elevator had been out of service for many years and had been corroded by the environment and climate, but it was still lucky.
The two of them nervously pressed and poked repeatedly, causing the last button to open the door to crack.
Number Seven’s expression was horrified, as if he wanted to cry but had no tears.
Both buttons were broken. At this point, the two of them had no more extra movements to relieve the hidden worries in their hearts. They could only stare at the door that was still slowly closing.
There were still three centimeters left to the door, two centimeters …
Through the gap in the door, song qingxiao saw what she was most worried about. A fat rat finally passed through the hole in the glass door and jumped into the lounge at the entrance of the laboratory.
The lounge was only a few meters away from the elevator. For a rat as strong as a pig, it would only take a blink of an eye to rush over.
Song qingxiao and number Seven’s hearts were in their throats. The rat couldn’t stop in time after it rushed through the glass barrier and slid forward for a distance.
Its claws scratched the floor, making an ear-piercing sound.
After it stopped, the rat squeaked and stared at the elevator with its red eyes. Then, it rushed toward the elevator like a wild boar.
“No… No, no, no…”
There was still a gap in the elevator door. No. 7 made a meaningless sound. The rat got closer and closer. Through the gap, the two people in the elevator could smell the disgusting blood on the rat.
With a soft click, the elevator door suddenly closed. After the shaking floor trembled slightly, the elevator began to rise slowly.
At the same time, the mouse hit the door of the elevator, making a deafening sound.
Song qingxiao and number seven finally relaxed after they had escaped from a desperate situation. They let out a sigh at the same time.
The elevator went up slowly, and the sound of heavy collisions came from outside. The two people in the elevator were panting.
No. 7 leaned against the elevator door. After a long while, he seemed to have caught his breath and thought of something.
“You just…”
After the fatal crisis was resolved, number Seven’s frozen thoughts gradually came back to her. She remembered the strange sound from song Qing’s small mouth in the elevator earlier.
No. 3’s last words about her being a psychic ability user resurfaced in her mind. Her eyes were filled with vigilance and suspicion,”
“The words … It’s a painting…”
Her voice was a little suppressed in the sealed space. The vibration of the elevator as it went up made her teeth clatter.
“You have a pen in your hand. Can you draw something to block it for a while?”
Number Seven’s eyes flickered when he heard song qingxiao’s words. He didn’t know if he believed her.
The elevator fell silent. No. 7 did not pursue the matter further. The elevator had risen for an unknown amount of time. From the sound of the collision below, it seemed to have gone quite a distance.
Both of them were panting, but the sounds of the collision did not stop. With every sound, number seven remembered the hideous face of the mouse and his body trembled involuntarily.
After an unknown period of time, she seemed to finally be unable to bear the silence that could drive people crazy. She opened her mouth and asked,”
“Why are they still crashing into each other?”
The door was closed, but the rats did not stop.
She was losing control of her temper. Song qingxiao also felt that something was not right. She swallowed and licked her lips. The banging sound came from below, echoing in their ears through the narrow elevator shaft. Other than the banging, there seemed to be a slight pattering sound, and at the same time, there were also the pitter-patter sounds, which were getting more and more frequent.
Song Qing took a deep breath, and the dust went down her throat. Number seven looked as if he had seen a ghost. It was obvious that he had the same thought as her.
When they escaped from the underground laboratory, the seawater that had poured into the laboratory had already flooded more than half of the laboratory. At this time, the rat was crazily hitting the wall. It was probably because the seawater was rising and it had no choice but to find a way to escape.
The dripping sound was probably from the seawater that had reached the elevator and was dripping down through the gap.
When the water flooded the elevator well and gradually rose, it might drown the elevator and force it to stop.
The cold sweat on song qingxiao’s body had not yet dried, and at this time, it began to drip again. The sound of running water began to intensify, and the speed of the sea water rising was extremely fast.
When the water pressure exceeded the bearing capacity of the elevator door, a large amount of seawater would pour in, and it would drown the place sooner or later.
At this moment, the passage of time slowed down once again. The shadow of death pressed down on their hearts, causing their faces to look extremely ugly under the dim light.
As time passed, the elevator continued to creak up, like an old man who was about to die.
The dripping sound below turned into a ‘splash’ of water, and the elevator door gradually couldn’t withstand the pressure. With a ‘boom’, it split open, and the’ splash ‘of seawater poured in. A cold air blew from below through the gap in the elevator floor, making the two shiver.
Song qingxiao closed her eyes and could hear the sound of the water rising.
She gritted her teeth. If it really didn’t work, she couldn’t just sit and wait for death. She had to find a way to get out of here.
At this moment, a ‘ding’ sound came from the elevator. The door slowly opened, and a ‘boom’ rang in their ears.
Through the gap of the electric ladder door, she saw the familiar collapsed Hall.
When song qingxiao left this place, she was eager to escape and saw this place as a desperate situation.
He didn’t expect that when he returned, he was still running for his life, but he was filled with joy.
The elevator door opened a thin gap, and number seven couldn’t help laughing. The sound of thunder was especially familiar. She couldn’t hold it in anymore and reached out to open the elevator door. When the elevator was about 20 centimeters away, she squeezed out.
Song qingxiao followed her and squeezed out of the door. She only felt at ease when her feet stepped on the cold floor instead of the shaking bottom of the elevator.
‘Da da da’ raindrops fell on the ruins, and the Thunder continued. One could imagine the shocking rain outside.
A series of footsteps could be heard amid the noise. Someone exclaimed in surprise,”
“Then …” The voice only said one word before it stopped abruptly and turned into a desperate wail.
“It collapsed? It’s impossible!”
He was still in disbelief, call for help, call for help, Mr. Zhou …
At the same time, the sound of ‘suo suo’ was suppressed by the sharp cry of pain, as if something heavy was being dragged on a rough stone..
