Chapter 214: Dark Cave
Chapter 214: Dark Cave
There is a dilapidated gate ahead.
The door frame was crooked and the wood grain was cracked, like wounds that could never heal.
When Zuo Xiuyan was almost approaching the door, the door broke with a click, fell forward and broke into pieces.
She looked around for a few moments, stepped over the debris and walked forward a few steps, only to find that there was no road ahead, only a large hole, as wide as several large squares combined.
There were countless ropes hanging above the big hole, each of them was several meters apart and swayed constantly with the wind in the cave.
Looking up, there is no ceiling or anything like that at the top of these ropes. They are not connected to anything, just hanging there magically.
Many people gathered around the cave, looked down, their faces turned pale and their eyes became dizzy.
It's like standing on the edge of a cliff, with no sight to the bottom, and the rustling sound of the wind gives people goose bumps.
The visible rope is only several dozen meters long, and the rest is hidden in the darkness and cannot be seen clearly.
Zuo Xiuyan walked to the edge of the cave, reached out, grabbed a rope and pulled it.
It didn't fall.
Then she took a few steps back and pulled with all her strength, but the rope didn't budge at all.
It seems OK.
Zuo Xiuyan grabbed the rope with both hands to steady his body. He passed the rope around his heel and placed the other foot in the middle of the rope. He put his legs together and moved slowly to the next section.
She couldn't help but feel fortunate that her physical fitness had improved a lot recently, so this kind of climbing would not be too strenuous for her.
The others quickly chose a rope and began to descend using their own methods.
The light was getting dimmer and dimmer, and only the rope emitted a faint fluorescent glow, making every face look pale green.
After descending to twenty meters, a scream was heard.
I saw someone suddenly falling rapidly, his figure flickered among the fluorescent lights, and then disappeared into the darkness.
Only the echo lingered for a long time, and the rope kept swinging.
The others were even more panicked, not knowing whether the person just now slipped or just ran out of strength. How deep was it? How long could they hold on like this? Would they also fall down halfway?
After descending another ten meters, Zuo Xiuyan suddenly felt something was wrong.
That very subtle, almost imperceptible feeling of falling.
She didn't have time to think, so she quickly gathered her strength and swung her body toward the rope further inside.
After several rounds of movement, her distance from the target was reduced from several meters to only 20 centimeters.
He immediately let go and lunged forward, grabbing the new rope tightly.
As I swung back and forth, I just steadied myself and saw the rope falling into the darkness like a curved line.
The ropes next to it also began to fall off one after another.
Screams were heard and figures fell down one after another.
The rope at the edge of the cave entrance has loosened!
Everyone realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly started moving inside.
However, not everyone can control the direction accurately.
Many people bumped into each other, and the two ropes were entangled with each other, twisting like a pretzel for a while.
Some people were hung on the ropes beside them, which trapped their bodies like a net and made them unable to move at all.
Some people didn't grab the rope after jumping and fell straight down.
Zuo Xiuyan continued to move down, and then paid more attention to the movement of the rope. When she felt something abnormal again, she moved quickly.
The ropes were retracting in circles. Suddenly, screams were heard and the number of people was decreasing rapidly.
This situation lasted for several minutes before it finally stopped.
Zuo Xiuyan's hands were already trembling slightly.
In addition to the burning pain in the hands caused by the friction of the rope, there is also muscle soreness from the continuous use of strength.
At this time, a faint light can be seen from the bottom, about 50 meters away.
Others shivered and said, "Almost there! There!"
At this moment, two green lights suddenly appeared on the rock wall.
Then, the light dimmed, and two spots suddenly appeared above it.
These spots of light flickered in different places, and suddenly spread out, densely surrounding the rock wall.
The bright light revealed a faint outline, and a twisted object was clinging to the rock wall and wriggling.
The light moves as they move.
That's not a lamp, that's an eye!
All the light suddenly floated up and shone straight towards us.
"Chi! Chi!" sounds were heard, and people fell down one after another in the silence without screaming.
Zuo Xiuyan controlled his emotions and shot straight forward.
In an instant, a light pattern appeared on the monster's body like a ripple, and then shattered with a bang.
In that instant, I could see the monster clearly.
It is made up of countless stones, combined in an extremely irregular and twisted shape, condensed into sharp thorns all over the body.
The surface of these thorns is uneven, covered with sharp edges and spikes, as if showing its ruthless aggressiveness and untamed violence to everything around it.
Zuo Xiuyan’s attack seemed to trigger something.
These monsters began to swarm towards her in large numbers.
She immediately controlled the system around her body, and as the monsters continued to collide with her, light patterns flashed across their bodies and then shattered them.
But another one suddenly scraped against the rope.
"Sizzle..." With a tearing sound, Zuo Xiuyan fell downwards.
All the monsters swooped down.
They gathered into a large group and pressed forward with overwhelming momentum. The light from their eyes cast green afterimages in the air.
At the bottom is the ground, and if you hit the ground you will be smashed to pieces!
"One, two." Zuo Xiuyan muttered silently, and a flash appeared.
Her body quickly moved upwards ten meters and she grabbed the rope fiercely.
In an instant, she and the monster were separated.
But there was no time to change the momentum of those monsters!
“Puff! Puff!”
The crackling sounds of falling things came one after another, as if large pieces of rocks were pouring down like a rainstorm, hitting the ground hard.
The huge impact force caused the ground to shake and raised clouds of dust.
After the monster's body was damaged, light patterns continued to emerge, and then it shattered into small pieces of stone and powder.
For a moment, it seemed as if a fluorescent ground had formed at the bottom, constantly lighting up and going out, scattering all over and emitting a strange light.
This caused a chain reaction, and a new batch of monsters rushed over.
Zuo Xiuyan moved again and did the same thing.
The others almost held their breath and dared not move.
She controlled the time just right, and the monster had no time to react. All the hatred was easily contained and then destroyed.
Every time she dodged before the monster touched her.
She was like a nimble night bat, flying up and down in the fluorescent sea.
In just a few seconds, she cleared out all the monsters that filled the cave.
All that was left were various fluorescent ropes swinging back and forth in the dark cave.
Finally, Zuo Xiuyan grabbed the rope with one hand and swung, then landed lightly on the ground and walked forward on the fluorescent ground.
