Chapter 438: An Unexpected Turn of Events

Chapter 438: An Unexpected Turn of Events

Chen Chen’s Field energy was like a searchlight with an invisible beam, extending in the depths of the corridor. The moment Laura entered his Field’s detection range, he would immediately detect her.

However, the reality was beyond Chen Chen’s expectations.

In the elevator shaft where everyone had fled, there was a piercing horrible howl. This howl went from far to near, then from near to far, filled with unspeakable despair, whizzing past behind Chen Chen.

Soon, the drawn-out sound became fainter and finally disappeared completely because of the distance.

Then, a second sound and a third sound...

Chen Chen knew that these three cries meant that three people had fallen from the elevator shaft into the invisible abyss.

“Cr*p!”

Chen Chen was powerless. He only heard the crowd behind him screaming as they crawled out of the elevator shaft, looking stunned and confused.

“There’s another one inside!”

The boy who had become the anchor finally climbed out crying and he scampered directly to Chen Chen’s side and wailed. “There’s another one at the exit of the elevator shaft. Wang Liang and Zheng Kai and the rest have fallen and died!”

The screams of the crowd made Chen Chen frown but he was still staring at the corridor in front of him. Even though the guy said that there was one behind them, Chen Chen did not look back. After all, even if the monster in the elevator shaft was about to attack, this group of students would act as a physical shield.

As for Chen Chen himself, he did not have a strong enough Field to take care of both monsters.

“Have you heard it!”

The short boy saw that Chen Chen was ignoring him, so he simply grabbed Chen Chen’s clothes and shouted, “Wang Liang and the rest have fallen!”

“Get off!”

Chen Chen’s eyes flashed ferociously. He suddenly turned around and slapped the other guy in the right cheek. In an instant, the short boy had no time to react and was blown backward by the largest force he had experienced in this lifetime!

“Clang!”

His body slammed into the wall next to the elevator and he coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood!

“Ahh —!”

Everyone screamed repeatedly. They were trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea. They could only huddle in place, not knowing where to flee.

“If you hadn’t become an anchor, I’d just kill you with that slap just now!”

Chen Chen said in a low voice. All this while, he did not even glance at the short boy.

However, the monster seemed to have noticed that Chen Chen was distracted. It had been lurking in the darkness and finally rushed out. It let out an ear-splitting shriek and climbed across the ceiling suddenly, so fast that it was impossible to keep track of it by sight!

It was a shame that the creature was up against a new human being who had been optimized by the T-virus. In the instant that everyone else barely had time to turn and look, Chen Chen had already detected it. At once a dim light flickered before Chen Chen and shot toward the monster’s face!

“Agh!”

Before the blood-red monster had time to rush at Chen Chen, its body burst out in a fountain of blood and it fell directly to the ground and rolled over several times. At an unknown time, three of its four arms had been severed at the shoulder!

At this point, Laura was going to become a limbless Laura.

By now, everyone could see that the monster in front of them was a woman with disheveled hair, but this woman was covered in bloodstains. No one knew if this was her own blood or the traces left after she had murdered her victims.

Three of its arms were severed at this time and only one bony arm was left constantly clawing the ground as if it wanted to get up.

However, this was not the end. Just when this handicapped yet determined Laura was about to stand up again, there was another “whoosh”. In the darkness, it was impossible to see what had lashed out. Everyone only saw that the monster’s legs were broken in the same instant!

At once, a large volume of blood spurted out again!

“Argh —!!!”

The monster collapsed completely on the cold floor, but even so, it raised its head and snarled at Chen Chen a few meters away.

“Pftt!”

However, the monster’s roar was ultimately halted in the throat. In the next second, its head flew back in a splatter of blood, rolled more than ten meters away, and did not move anymore...

Now, the monster was completely silent.

“That’s it?”

Looking at the monster that died instantly in front of him, Chen Chen tilted his head impassively. Then, in one gesture, a graphene poker card that had been greatly damaged spun back toward him.

Seeing that the card had been damaged, Chen Chen flicked it slightly and slammed it into the wall.

With a sharp “crack”, the nearly transparent card was smashed into smithereens.

Still, throughout this scene, Chen Chen looked like a god in the eyes of the rest. He did not even take a step at all, yet the monster that rushed toward him was dismembered!

“Cool cool cool!”

Standing in the crowd, Zhang Wei could not help shouting, “I’ve never admired many people in my life. My roommate is one and you’re the second! O Great God, you’re not human! You’re not a mere human being!”

Chen Chen did not bother responding to such weird praise. He stepped forward, squatted, and started to examine the monster, but at this moment, a bloody hand suddenly stretched out from the black hole in the elevator shaft behind Zhang Wei!

This bloody hand seized Zhang Wei by his shoulder while he was speaking. It seemed that in the next second, Zhang Wei would be dragged backward!

Zhang Wei’s eyes flashed blankly and he subconsciously threw the crucifix in his hand behind him. The moment the crucifix touched the bloody hand, the bloody hand seemed to have touched a lump of soldering iron and suddenly retracted!

“Arghh!”

Until then, Zhang Wei finally realized what had happened just now. He jumped in shock and at the same time, he did not forget to pick up the crucifix that had fallen on the ground while he was screaming and retreating quickly.

Everyone also saw the scene of Zhang Wei being attacked. They all followed suit, crying out and running behind Chen Chen as they stared at the blackness of the elevator shaft in dazed alarm.

Chen Chen was astounded. His Field power carefully examined Zhang Wei’s crucifix all over, but no matter how he looked at it, it was just a crucifix made of pure silver.

The workmanship was not even meticulous but was rather crude.

Could the crucifix restrain the ghosts in this meme?

This occurred to Chen Chen before he shot down the idea.

What kind of joke was this? If the crucifix could restrain the ghosts in memes, why bother to study meme technology?

It was not so much that the crucifix could restrain the meme. Chen Chen would rather believe that the urine on the crucifix just now was the main factor. Perhaps the ghost hand felt that the urine was too disgusting, it shrank back in response.

“What are you trying to do?”

At this time, it was not only Chen Chen, but even the group of students could not help but frequently glance at the crucifix in Zhang Wei’s hand. This immediately caused Zhang Wei to retreat warily.

Still, since Chen Chen was still here, everyone just stared at Zhang Wei greedily, but no one moved to snatch it.

“You want to snatch what’s mine?”

Seeing everyone’s gaze, Zhang Wei did not even think about it and immediately backed into the darkness. “You teammates aren’t reliable. I won’t team up with you, I want to go solo!”

After that, Zhang Wei turned around and ran toward the depths of the corridor.

Chen Chen did not stop him, merely watched him as he fled from Chen Chen’s field of vision. After that Chen Chen retracted his gaze.

He was not trying to rescue everyone now but to find a way out of this Otherworld. It was sufficient to ensure the anchor was not dead. Naturally, he would save the others if possible, but if that could not be done, Chen Chen would not actively play the part of a hero.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen looked at the short boy who had been slapped in the face again. At this time, half of his cheek was already swollen like a steamed bun and even his eye was sealed shut.

“Everyone, come with me.”

Chen Chen commanded the group and then walked in the direction of the elevator shaft.

His Field extended to the elevator shaft first, trying to find the monster hiding in the dark, but when he came to the elevator shaft and looked up into the space, he found that there was nothing in there now.

Not only that, but around 40 to 50 meters above the elevator shaft, a white light shone in as if there was an exit.

Still, Chen Chen knew that if the anchor did not go in, even if it was an exit, he would not be able to get out.

Therefore, he simply took the lead and climbed up the stairs in the elevator shaft first.

Seeing that Chen Chen had taken the lead, everyone had the guts to follow behind.

Originally, there were 16 or 17 people pulled into the Otherworld on the third floor underground, but because half of them died in the elevator, only eight people were left. Later on, three people fell into the elevator shaft, and Zhang Wei left the team. At this time, apart from Chen Chen, there were only four people left. Of the four, there were two men and two women. In addition to the short boy who became the anchor of the Otherworld, there was also the beautiful girl that Chen Chen had previously bumped into in the elevator.

Presently, the four of them followed Chen Chen, desperately crawling toward the place where the white light was shining above their heads.

“That ghostly hand... Will it be waiting for us up there...”

As he was crawling, the little boy looked panicked and uncertain. He kept looking up, but he was also anxious about what was below, so he kept looking down. It seemed that the abyss-like world of the black hole below was more terrifying than the unknown above.

However, as he crawled and looked down, suddenly, a gray shadow flitted across the darkness below.

“Gah!”

The short guy yelled loudly and at the same time, he climbed up swiftly while jostling the other man above him. “There’s something below, there’s something below! Hurry up!”

The team that had just calmed down was in a mess again.

Chen Chen looked down when he heard these words, but he did not see anything, so he had to say, “Stop yelping. Just speed up. Even if there’s something underneath, it will take some time for them to catch up with us!”

With that said, he used his Field energy and flew upward suddenly!

With the help of his Field energy, Chen Chen came to the white light at the top of the elevator shaft in just two breaths. It was only then that he realized, the white light was shining in from a vent and outside the vent, there was real ground, and moreover, it was the roof of the office building!

Seeing this, Chen Chen slammed his foot into the guardrail on the vent, kicking the iron guardrail directly. In a flash, he had dashed into the outside world!

However, the moment he rushed out, Chen Chen’s expression shifted!

As he rushed out, the scene in front of him also changed from being the view on the top of the building to the first floor of the office building he had just come from!

However, there was a slight difference between the lobby of the office building in front of him and the lobby he saw before. Namely, now it seemed that no one had been here for a long time, with thick dust and rotting walls everywhere.

He could only see a gray, foggy world outside the door.

“This is still the Otherworld!”

Seeing this scene, Chen Chen suddenly wore a grave look. He still remembered that the “Otherworld” in Silent Hill was a collective term for two worlds. Unlike the real world, the Otherworld was also divided into the “Otherworld” and the “Fog World”.

When they first entered Silent Hill, people would walk into a world perpetually filled with fog and white ash drifting in the sky.

There was still a small amount of light in this world, allowing people to see the surroundings clearly.

However, if the siren sounded, then this world would quickly transform into a world full of flames, darkness, and depravity.

Only then would the visitors truly fall into the crisis-ridden Otherworld.

“Could it be that we have always been in the Fog World just now?”

Chen Chen murmured.

At this moment, everyone behind him finally climbed to the top. The four of them panted heavily and slumped to the ground one by one. At the same time, they looked overjoyed. “We escaped, we escaped!”

“Something’s wrong!”

Still, just as the four of them heaved a sigh of relief, one of them suddenly sensed something was wrong. He looked around in horror. “How did this place become like this? Is this still the same first floor we came in from?

“Could it be that we haven’t escaped?”

As he questioned, the remaining three cried out in disbelief.

Just when everyone was at a loss, suddenly, a whining alarm sounded from a distance. It had a peculiar impact, sweeping by everyone’s ears like a demonic noise!

What sound was this!

“This is Silent Hill. I should’ve thought of it, this is the world of Silent Hill!”

Finally, the short boy fully understood his situation at this time. He grabbed his hair and collapsed, crying, “We’re dead meat, we can’t escape at all! There’s absolutely no way to escape!”

The rest could only listen to the cry of his collapse and the strange alarm sound in their ears. It was as if this sound was trying to drill into their ears, producing an irritation that could not quite be expressed. Even if they covered their ears, it was useless.

However, Chen Chen seemed to be unaffected by it. He just stared at the door of the lobby because he noticed that, along with the sound of the alarm, the light outside the door was dimming gradually...

After a while, the last ray of light in the sky outside the door had darkened fully. At this time, the lobby on the first floor was the same as the third floor underground. One could not even see one’s own hand!

This was still not that bad. As the siren continued to wail, the walls and floor of the lobby decayed, and the floor even started to cave in. Beneath the floor, there was a gush of lava hot enough to scorch people!

This was how it usually went in Silent Hill...

Chen Chen took a deep breath, revealing an extremely solemn expression.

In his perception, a group of ceaselessly twitching monsters had walked out of the darkness and surrounded the lobby of the office building little by little. His Field could extend beyond the door and suddenly, he saw the group of monsters, which all turned out to be...

They were all...

When Chen Chen saw their appearance clearly, he was surprised for once.

Those monsters turned out to be beautiful female zombies wearing black silk and maid costumes!

...

On the other side at this time, Zhang Wei still stayed in the space on the third floor underground. He carefully held up the crucifix and he found a room whose door could be opened.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei took out the temperature-measuring gun and measured the room. Suddenly, the words -15° appeared on the display!

“F*ck, bitterly cold! It’s a haunted room!”

Immediately, Zhang Wei could not help but sigh. “Sigh, how great would it be if these ghosts were all young ladies in black silk maid costumes...”
