Chapter 1308: Who Was in the Darkness (Ruins)
Ruins
Thud, thud—
With two soft thuds in quick succession, two figures landed in a pitch-black space.
Li Cheng raised the spear in his hand. Traces of electricity gathered at its tip, igniting a brilliant glow that drove back the darkness and illuminated the scene around them.
This appeared to be a long, narrow corridor. Its walls were built of concrete and bricks, but they were no longer intact, with many sections shattered.
Broken bricks mixed with alloy fragments lay scattered across the corridor floor, smashing through the flooring and exposing the pitted stone walls behind them, which seemed to have been carved out by hand.
The entire "corridor" seemed to have been built within a man-made "tunnel." Walls had simply been added around it, making it resemble an artificial structure.
He Ao lowered his head and studied the alloy fragments embedded among the bricks. The alloy looked exceptionally thick and sturdy; it should have been the part responsible for the wall's "defense."
At that moment, He Ao suddenly recalled that, in the building spaces of the "outer" research facility, he had vaguely seen similar alloy in some damaged walls.
The construction method of the "outer" Research Facility was similar to this place's, except the alloy outside had never been damaged, so the walls hidden behind it could not be seen.
This "alloy" could not be easily damaged even by B-rank power.
He Ao raised his head and looked down the deep, dark corridor ahead.
The corridor's ceiling had long since been destroyed, likewise revealing pitted stone walls and some powerless electrical wires scattered across the ground.
The corridor was exceptionally deep. Li Cheng's light was already bright enough, yet it still could not reach the depths of the passage.
