backtracking dawn

"There is a way..."

Xiaolan secretly took out a small arc-shaped device. Just by looking at its appearance, it reminded people of something like a conductor.

"This is an electromagnetic pulse device I brought out before departure. As long as it is activated, it will continue to interfere with the surrounding power system for at least twenty seconds. By then, the surrounding environment will become completely dark. We should have

Sufficient opportunity for escape..."

"There is such a good thing..."

"Don't be too happy. There is no cost to using this thing." Xiaolan continued to whisper, "According to common sense, this kind of thing is actually an item that needs to be thrown. If it is at a close range,

Activation will cause certain harm to the initiator..."

"Definitely hurt?"

"It's like being hit so hard that your ribs are broken, or your head is sore and painful..."

"That doesn't sound good..."

"But under the current situation, we have no choice at all. If you are determined to activate it, we can only activate it on our own hands so that it will not be noticed by the captain and others."

"Okay, then give him to me."

Qu Xiao quietly stretched out his hand.

Xiaolan was a little worried: "Have you really thought it through?"

"Hesitation can't accomplish big things." Qu Xiao showed a slightly bitter smile. In fact, of course he didn't want to do this, but he was blessed with black stone energy, so he was indeed more suitable than Xiaolan.

candidate.

"Believe me, nothing big will happen..."

"All right."

Xiaolan nodded lightly, and secretly handed the electromagnetic pulse device in his hand to Qu Xiao without everyone's attention.

The latter took it calmly and did not start immediately. The team was traveling in the middle of the long corridor. A place like this was obviously not suitable for them to escape.

Have to wait for a more appropriate time.

Searching forward cautiously, everyone soon reached the end of the corridor. The end location connected the two corners. On the issue of "which way to go?", the four teams had a dispute.

The opportunity has come!

Qu Xiao was overjoyed, wasn't this a good opportunity given to him and Xiaolan by God? He immediately stopped waiting and pressed the device very decisively, releasing its hidden effectiveness!

"puff--"

After a trembling sound as light as cicada's wings, the light strips with a radius of several meters suddenly went out. Even the emergency lights on the wall lost their effectiveness, and the entire passage instantly fell into deep darkness.

A tense atmosphere swept through the whole team. Muyu quickly ordered everyone in the team to turn on their flashlights. The other team leaders also had similar reactions. Regarding this sudden power outage, everyone's heart was lifted to a high point!

Paying close attention to the movements around her, Mu Yu vaguely heard the sound of tiny footsteps. She raised her flashlight to follow the sound, but she didn't see any figure.

At the same time, Qu Xiao and Xiao Lan were running fast against the wall, the edge of the flashlight light penetrating through the air around them, just a little bit away from exposing their bodies!

Under this situation, Qu Xiao, who was so shocked that two ribs were broken, did not dare to take a breath. There was blood in his mouth, but at this time, he could not even swallow the blood.

Don't dare to do it.

Danger, too dangerous!

Watching the flashlight light in front of them with fear, Qu Xiao and Xiaolan didn't dare to start again until it was swept to the other side. The next corner was a few meters in front of them, and they ran over quickly, as if they were surviving for the rest of their lives.

He hid his figure behind this corner.

The next second, the light bar was lit again in a flash of flashing.

It's so thrilling!

Qu Xiao's heart was lucky. Xiaolan beside him was almost a reaction. The calculation of this time was too just right. If it was half a second in the evening, the ending could change.

After destroying the headset used to communicate, the two continued to escape for a long distance through the cover of the corner, until they could not hear the movement behind them.

At this time, Qu Xiao's complexion has already appeared pale. It seems that the device just started in his hand, which really caused him a lot of damage.

"You're okay ..."

Xiao Lan was a little worried. He was very clear about the huge harm to the device caused by the nearby device. Although it was not as exaggerated as a grenade, the sense of earthquake was definitely not light, let alone Qu Xiao was directly started with his hands.

This kind of torture is more painful than Ling Chi in ancient times!

In fact, Qu Xiao is indeed tortured.

The current flowing out of the device after starting was to let him appreciate the taste of "shocking". If it wasn't for the protection of the bones of the arm, he even felt that he would directly fracture because of the start of this thing!

However, the energy of Blackstone is limited after all. After using it to protect the arm, the other parts of Qu Xiao's body appear to be more fragile. The impact spreads from the arm to his front chest.

Although the ribs break are not fatal, the pain that bursts out is really fierce. Qu Xiao has been holding up the pain and dare not speak up, but there is no one around at this time.

Roar up.

Holding the wall with one hand to support her body, Qu Xiao only felt that she was going to die now. Xiao Lan saw this gently forwarding to help him support the other side of his body. As a companion, this is also him.

The only thing I can do.

"If you are too painful, let's rest first ..."

"No ... can't rest." Qu Xiao shook his head and said firmly, "We must find Lai before them, otherwise they found it first, and our plan would be meaningless ..."

"But we don't have any thoughts at all now." Xiao Lan frowned and started thinking, "Do you think Lai will be on this level?"

"Forgive me, I think searching for this layer has no meaning at all."

Qu Xiao waved his hand and said, "There is a problem with the strategy of searching layer by layer, which not only increases the risk of search, but also slows down the efficiency of search. If I am Lai, I will never stay in the middle floor to stay in the middle of these floors.

Because it is of little significance to stay in these places, the information that exists is likely to have no effect on me. "

"It makes sense." Xiao Lan nodded. "As the highest person in charge of the base, Lai must know that the company's internal emotional emotional situation, otherwise he will not go straight to the ground."

"So I think we should go directly to the bottom floor." Qu Xiao went on to say, "According to the required permissions to reach the floor in the elevator, the structure of the underground space of this high tower is obviously more and more confidential.

Yes, I will only be interested in the most confident things. As for the other, I will choose to skip it. "

"Then let's go directly to the bottom layer." Xiao Lan nodded, "In terms of time, we can also lead the captain."

"But now there is a question. Do you know where the stairs going down are?" Qu Xiao asked, "The stairs we went down can only go to this floor. If we want to continue going down, we must find other ways.

.”

"I don't know the staircase, but I have another idea..."

"What idea?"

"We can actually take the elevator." Xiaolan said.

Qu Xiao was puzzled when he heard this: "But we don't have the authority..."

"We don't need to." Xiaolan shook her head, "Do you still remember the two corpses we met on the second floor of the negative area? If they were members of Lai's team during their lifetime, we can actually borrow their identity information.

Certification.”

"You mean we turn back to the second floor now?"

"I can't think of any other more efficient way."

"But are you sure those two corpses will allow us to use the elevator?"

"I'm not sure." Xiaolan replied honestly, "but I think we can take a gamble. If their identity information can still be valid, we will be a long way ahead of the captain and others."

"Okay!" Qu Xiao thought for a while, and finally agreed to Xiaolan's suggestion, "I trust your intuition, let's go."

…

When the two of them turned back to the corner, they could no longer see the group. It seemed that they had chosen another direction and not taken the same path as the two of them.

This made it easier for Qu Xiao and Xiaolan to return. They didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. They successfully returned to the stairway and climbed up the stairs. After about five minutes, the two returned to the second level again.

building.

Several members of the Hongyu team had already gone to the upper floor. On this floor, only Qu Xiao and Xiao Lan were left alive. Relying on Xiao Lan's outstanding memory, the two quickly found the movie again.

The corpses at the elevator door were still there, and the pool of blood next to the severed heads was still bright and oozing.

"It's okay, it works."

After lowering his body and checking the indicator monitors on the wrists of the two corpses, Xiaolan's expression relaxed slightly. On the way here, he had been worried about whether this thing would be damaged due to the attack. Now it seems

, he was really worrying too much.

The columns on the indicator monitor have all bottomed out at this time, because the host's vital signs cannot be detected, and they are now in dormant mode.

After restarting, Xiaolan put one of the monitors on his wrist, then he pressed the elevator's floor button and waited quietly for the elevator to arrive.

This process takes about less than five seconds.

As the elevator door opened, Xiaolan limped in while supporting Qu Xiao.

"Hopefully this person has been assigned advanced access rights."

While Xiaolan prayed, she moved the monitor she had looted from the dead closer to the scanning area.

With a soft beep, the elevator unlocked access to all floors!

Success!

When the two saw this, they couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Pressing the floor button for the negative twelfth floor, the elevator began to sink rapidly...
