Chapter 351 World 4: My vulnerable and lucky savior
Ji Xiran nodded, but there was still a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. He tried to calm himself down and keep up with Shi Qi and Lin Yi.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the outskirts of the abandoned factory. The iron gate of the factory was rusty, with a shabby sign hanging on it, on which the words "XX Chemical X Factory" could be vaguely recognized. The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, making it look particularly desolate.
Lin Yi took the lead and pushed the iron door hard. The iron door made a harsh creaking sound and slowly opened. A rotten smell came in the face, making the three of them frown.
"This place looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. Would the key person be here?" Ji Xiran said with some doubt.
Shi Qi smiled slightly: "The system positioning cannot be wrong, the key person must be here. Let's go in and take a look."
The three of them walked into the factory carefully. It was very dark inside, with only a few rays of sunlight shining through the dilapidated windows. There was a damp and musty smell all around, making people feel uncomfortable.
Lin Yi turned on the positioning and navigation function of the system, and the light spot displayed on the light screen was not far away. He said, "The key person is in this factory, let's go over there."
The three of them walked towards the light spot and passed through a mess of ruins. Suddenly, Ji Xiran stopped, with a trace of fear in his eyes: "Listen..."
Shi Qi and Lin Yi also stopped immediately and listened carefully. A subtle, low sound that seemed to come from underground echoed in the air, sometimes clear, sometimes vague, making people shudder.
"What's that sound?" Ji Xiran's voice trembled a little.
Shi Qi frowned slightly: "It sounds like the growl of some creature, but it doesn't look like any known creature in this world. We have to be careful."
Lin nodded, and he quickly activated the system's scanning function, trying to find the source of the sound. The light screen showed a scan of the surrounding environment, but apart from the ruins and some debris, no obvious abnormalities were found.
"Strange, no signs of any living creatures were found in the scan." Lin Yi said somewhat confusedly.
"Perhaps this creature does not belong to this world, or it is well hidden." Shi Qi whispered, "Let's move on, but stay alert."
The three continued to walk forward, and the sound became clearer and clearer, as if it was right under their feet. Suddenly, the ground under Ji Xiran's feet shook slightly, and then a piece of the floor suddenly collapsed. Ji Xiran screamed, lost his balance, and fell towards the cave entrance.
"Be careful!" Lin Yi and Shi Qi immediately reached out to pull Ji Xiran, but Ji Xiran had already fallen into the cave. A muffled sound came from below the cave entrance, and then a cold breath surged out of the cave.
"Ji Xiran!" Lin Yi shouted anxiously.
Shi Qi quickly turned on the light screen and activated the positioning function, trying to find Ji Xiran's location. The light screen showed that Ji Xiran was still not far below the cave entrance, but the signal seemed a little unstable.
"He should be fine, let's go down and take a look." Shi Qi said.
Lin nodded, took a deep breath, and jumped into the cave first. Shi Qi followed closely behind. The two slid down the wall of the cave and finally landed on a wet ground.
"Are you okay?" Lin Yi's voice rang out in the darkness.
"I'm fine." Shi Qi replied, "Where's Ji Xiran?"
