Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.
Chapter 654: Entering the Abyss
At night, Lin Yi discovered that there were many shadowy figures around the orphanage.
Lin Yi didn't even need to guess. Apart from Riko's identity, this orphanage had no other good things that could attract these people.
Lin Yi sighed and closed the book on the table. There were two guys opposite Lin Yi's window. Their eyes were staring straight at Lin Yi. Even if Lin Yi wanted to ignore them, he couldn't.
"Boss, why do we have to keep an eye on this man?" A cave explorer with a Cang flute hanging around his neck, who looked a bit wretched, was hiding in the jungle, staring at Lin Yi with a device similar to a telescope.
This man's name is Ward Oston, a bounty hunter who always rushes to where there are valuables.
"Of course someone is watching Lisa's daughter. According to the information we have, this guy is very close to Lisa's daughter, and he came from outside, so he might know some key information." A Yuedi cave explorer with a dogtail grass in his mouth said while leaning against a tree trunk.
This person's name is Lajin Duke. In Duke's opinion, although Lin Yi was rated as Black Flute by the guild, he came from outside the town of Os.
This made Duke look down on Lin Yi.
"Oh? Where did you get this information?" As the two were chatting, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears without warning.
"Of course it's from exploring...who!" Duke, who was originally lying on the tree trunk leisurely, jumped up in surprise when he heard the strange voice.
A strange little shell appeared in his hand. This shell was a relic that Duke found on the third layer of the abyss. It could release extremely powerful shock waves.
"Aren't you looking at me? In that case, I naturally have to come over to see who has been staring at me." As the moonlight slowly moved, Lin Yi's face gradually emerged from the darkness.
"How is it possible, you..." Austin's face was full of astonishment, and he quickly looked at the telescope in his hand, only to find that Lin Yi, who was originally sitting in front of the table, had disappeared at some point.
"Since you came to our door in person, don't blame us for taking action." Duke showed a disdainful smile on his face.
In his opinion, any cave explorer who has not experienced the baptism of the Abyss is just a half-baked one.
Ten seconds later, the shell in Duke's hand turned into a pile of fragments and was firmly embedded in the palm of Duke's right hand. Blood slowly seeped out from the wound, looking particularly dazzling under the moonlight.
As for Austin, there was a shocking big hole in his chest, which was caused by Lin Yi's punch.
"How...how is this possible." Duke was grabbed by the neck and lifted up by Lin Yi.
To be honest, he had never expected that Lin Yi's fighting ability was so strong.
Just now Duke tried to knock Lin Yi out with a shell and take him back, but who could have expected that Lin Yi would smash his treasured relic to pieces with just one punch.
After seeing this scene, Austin instinctively wanted to run away.
Before he could run far, Lin Yi hit him on the back with a punch.
The powerful impact caused Auston to lose his life instantly and fall down.
"Now, I ask you questions. How many people have you brought this time?" Lin Yi's pupils turned a little black under the influence of the power of the abyss. From a distance, no one would think that Lin Yi was a human being.
“Not sure. Many people received the news this time, and we only arrived halfway.” Duke no longer had his previous arrogance and disdain. He understood that he had underestimated Lin Yi this time.
So, he obediently told Lin Yi all the information he knew, hoping that Lin Yi would let him go.
As for Austin, he's just a Cang Di, and if he dies, he dies.
In Duke's opinion, he would just need to go to the union to recruit a few Cang Di who had no team.
"Where did the news come from?"
"I bought it on the black market. There are all kinds of information about Lisa now, but the information about Lisa's daughter is the most expensive, and there are photos as evidence, so we rushed here." Duke's voice was a little stumbling. After all, Lin Yi's palm was tightly grasping Duke's throat, making him speak less smoothly.
"Where are the photos?" Lin Yi asked.
"In my...right pocket." Duke's face flushed red, and he raised his hand and pointed tremblingly at a pocket on the right side of his clothes.
Seeing this, Lin Yi took out a photo from Duke's clothes.
The photo shows Rico receiving the Lord of Annihilation's Lysabeth from Hubble.
Lin Yi and Reg were standing next to Liko, and it was obvious that this photo was taken by someone from the Cave Exploration Guild.
This information was most likely circulated by the Cave Exploration Guild.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
"No...no more."
Hearing Lin Yi say this, Duke felt relieved, thinking that the interrogation was finally over.
The next second, Lin Yi's right hand directly grabbed Duke's neck.
With a "click" sound, Lin Yi exerted a little force and sent Duke to see Austin.
Perhaps it was because Duke and Austin were insignificant people in this world, so even if Lin Yi killed these two people, he did not gain any world source or treasure chest.
As for other places, Lin Yi didn't need to deal with them. Lin Yi noticed that Jiluo was clearing out the surveillance personnel in other places.
Not long after Lin Yi returned to the room, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
"It's me, Riko."
Sure enough, after Lin Yi opened the door, he found that Rico and Reg at the door were both wearing cave exploration equipment.
Nado and Xichi, who were following behind the two, seemed to hope that Lin Yi could persuade them, but unfortunately, Lin Yi was just trying to get a ride, so he naturally wouldn't persuade Liko and Reg to stay.
"Brother Lin, we are leaving."
"Are you going to find your mother?" Hearing Lin Yi's words, Liko raised her head.
"Don't look at me like that. Even a fool can tell what you want to do from your current appearance. Let's go. As a Black Flute cave explorer, I should at least go to the Abyss Abyss. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable letting you two go down alone."
Lin Yi smiled and touched Liko and Reg's heads. Hearing Lin Yi's words, Nado and Xichi also breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you want to leave, leave now. After this period of time, it won't be so easy to leave."
Hearing Lin Yi's words, Liko and Reg nodded, picked up their backpacks, followed Lin Yi quietly to the back door of the orphanage.
Originally, Riko had planned to use wire to poke open the back door of the orphanage, but today she discovered that the back door, which was always tightly closed, had opened a gap at some point.
Liko pushed the door open easily without much effort.
When leaving the orphanage, Lin Yi inadvertently noticed Kiruo on the roof.
After noticing Lin Yi's gaze, Kiruo nodded slightly to signal Lin Yi that Rico and Reg would be left to him.
"You two injected this stuff yourselves."
Lin Yi took out a glass bottle from his personal space, and there was a pool of transparent liquid in the bottle.
"What is this?" Reg caught the glass bottle thrown by Lin Yi, picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"This is a special vaccine developed by the Cave Exploration Guild. It can resist most infectious diseases and severe diseases in the lower levels of the Abyss. If your physique does not have this vaccine, it will be difficult for you to go down to the bottom of Naraku."
This vaccine was a benefit given to Lin Yi by the Cave Exploration Guild after he became Black Dipper.
However, Lin Yi had already been injected with a more comprehensive preventive vaccine than this one in the Samsara Paradise, and this vaccine was just left for Rico and Reg.
The group advanced quickly under the cover of night, and soon the orphanage building was left far behind.
Arriving at the central square of Oss Town, Lin Yi noticed that there were still many staff members working the night shift.
Lin Yi asked Liko and Reg to take the red flute with him, and he also hung the black flute around his neck, and led the two of them towards the elevator in the center.
There are two ways to enter the Abyss Abyss. One is to use the elevator of the Cave Exploration Guild to enter the first floor of the Abyss Abyss, which is located 150 meters underground.
Since the cave exploration guild has cleared all the dangers in this area, entering from here is undoubtedly the safest option. Another way is to sneak across, but this method is very dangerous. No one knows whether there will be abyssal creatures waiting to feed at the place where they land.
"Hello, sir. Are you still going down at this late hour?" The staff of the Cave Exploration Guild became alert immediately after seeing the black flute around Lin Yi's neck.
"Well, two of my juniors want to go to the Abyss Abyss and take a look. I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow, but these two kids are so impatient that they can't wait even overnight. I have no choice but to bring them here now."
After hearing this, the staff turned their attention to Rico and Reg who were following Lin Yi.
"It's really not easy for you, sir. You have to take the child out so late." The staff member sighed and reached out to pull down the lever.
As the lever was pulled, the metal elevator made a creaking sound and began to rise slowly.
"I can't help it. You know how curious children are. After I show them the scenery of the first floor of the Abyss today, they should be much better later."
The expression on Lin Yi's face was full of helplessness, as if he really was a senior who was taking care of children.
Seeing Lin Yi chatting with the staff, Liko and Reg did not interrupt.
They just lay quietly on the railing, concentrating on looking at the scenery of the Abyss below.
When the staff nearby saw this scene, some of their doubts were dispelled.
"The elevator is here. Sir, remember what Chi Di said and don't go to the second floor. Otherwise, the guild will not be responsible if anything happens." The staff member reminded in a serious manner.
"I understand." Lin Yi took Liko and Reg into the elevator.
As the elevator moved downwards, Riko could no longer contain her excitement. She came to the elevator guardrail, grabbed it and looked out.
Lin Yi noticed that as the few people went deeper, the originally dim sky gradually became brighter, as if it had suddenly entered day from night.
When Lin Yi took the elevator to the 150-meter depth of the first layer of the Abyss, the surrounding light was already as bright as dawn, and it was impossible to tell that the cave entrance was still in the middle of the night.
"Let's go. Even though the guild shouldn't be able to detect anything unusual in the short term, I am still the one who brought you here illegally. It's better to leave here as soon as possible."
After hearing what Lin Yi said, Riko nodded and then took out a map from her backpack.
Since Lin Yi brought Liko down through the official channel this time, Liko naturally knew where they were now.
"We should be at this location now. We will walk about a kilometer forward and see a dead tree. There are steps under the dead tree. We can walk from there to a depth of 600 meters."
Riko pointed to a coordinate on the map, and after confirming the location, she began to lead the way.
As for Lin Yi, he tried to absorb some of the free power of the abyss in the air and found that it had no effect on his body.
Here, the power of the abyss has been diluted to an extreme. Except for the possible impact on some people with weaker physical constitutions, there is basically no major change under normal circumstances.
"Wait for me here for a moment, I want to experiment with something." When Liko and Reg were moving forward, Lin Yi suddenly stopped and said to them.
"Okay, be careful." Reg nodded and approached Riko and became alert.
The three of them have now stepped into the interior of the Abyss. Every inch of land here is full of danger, so Reg naturally dare not relax at all.
Under the gazes of Rico and Reg, Lin Yi quickly grabbed a thick vine and climbed up quickly like a nimble monkey.
His speed was so fast that in almost the blink of an eye, he had climbed to the height where the rising load could explode.
"What is Brother Lin doing?" Reg looked at Lin Yi's amazing climbing speed and couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.
He scratched his head, obviously puzzled by Lin Yi's behavior.
"He should be testing the impact of the increased load on himself." Li Ke guessed Lin Yi's thoughts.
Riko's intelligence level is not low, but she usually focuses most of her energy on things related to the Abyss Abyss.
Therefore, Rico sometimes looks a little dull and silly, but at critical moments, Rico can always show extraordinary insight.
When Lin Yi climbed to a height of ten meters, he realized that the power of the abyss in the surrounding air suddenly became violent, as if a huge rock was suddenly thrown into the originally calm dead water, causing huge waves.
To use a more vivid metaphor to describe it, the power of the abyss is like a sleeping beast under normal circumstances.
When the cave explorer climbs to a certain height, it will touch its reverse scale, causing it to wake up instantly and cause a riot inside the cave explorer's body.
The power of the abyss in the first layer is very thin, so its impact on the human body is relatively slight.
Even a child as young as Riko would only experience discomfort similar to motion sickness.
Such as dizziness, vomiting, and in some extreme cases, incontinence, but these symptoms can usually be relieved by a short rest.
As cave explorers go deeper into the abyss, the concentration of the power of the abyss will gradually increase, and the burden on the cave explorers will also increase accordingly.
Lin Yi originally planned to test the specific impact of the increased load on himself, but unexpectedly discovered that when the rioting power of the abyss tried to invade his body, it was instantly swallowed up by the original power of the abyss in his body.
After feeling the changes in his body, Lin Yi realized that the rising load of the Abyss had most likely lost its effect on him.
After confirming that the increased load had no effect on him, Lin Yi returned to Liko and Reg.
Liko and Reg glanced at Lin Yi and found that Lin Yi looked normal and was not affected by any abyss force field at all.
"Brother Lin, are you okay?"
"It's okay, let's go."
After hearing what Lin Yi said, Rico and Reg continued to follow Rico's instructions.
About twenty minutes later, they arrived in front of the iconic dead tree.
This dead tree is not only a natural wonder, but also a landmark in the hearts of cave explorers.
Here, cave explorers specially built steps to provide convenience for Red Flute-level cave explorers like Riko.
Of course, such convenient facilities are not available on every level of the abyss.
They are mainly concentrated within the first 600 meters of the first layer of the Abyss.
Above this depth, the combat effectiveness of the abyss creatures is relatively weak, and cave explorers can still carry out activities relatively safely.
Once you go deeper than 600 meters, the combat effectiveness of the abyss creatures will increase dramatically and the environment there will become extremely dangerous, so there will be no such convenient stair facilities.
Lin Yi led Liko and Reg down the stairs.
Lin Yi discovered that as the few of them went deeper, the free power of the abyss in the surrounding air was constantly increasing, but the increase in concentration was very small.
"We're here, the Rock Ark."
When they reached the end of the stairs, Lin Yi brought Riko to the edge of the cliff and saw a strange sight.
A stone boat was actually embedded in the solid wall. Its appearance was so abrupt, as if an illogical bug had appeared in some corner of the world.
Coming here meant that Riko and Reg had reached a depth that neither of them had ever reached before.
The Rock Ark is a mark at the 600-meter depth of the first layer of the Abyss.
From here upwards, it is the area where Riko and a group of red flutes are active.
But from here down is the real Abyss.
Lin Yi took Rico and Reg to the bow of the Rock Ark. Here, Lin Yi saw a ray of light shining through the clouds in the sky into the Abyss.
In the sky, groups of weeping birds were foraging for food. It seemed that they noticed Lin Yi and the other two, and several of them were ready to swoop down to forage.
Reg was originally preparing to attack, but Lin Yi's movements were faster than his. A black and white rose appeared in Lin Yi's hand.
Several jet-black sword energies shot out from the black and white roses, piercing the body of the weeping bird with precision. (End of this chapter)
