Warning! The evil god's minions are invading the eerie dungeon.

At close enough distance, Chen Mu could clearly see the dark shadow that completely blocked the elevator shaft in the dim light.

The sedan chair.

This huge iron box, which had stopped on some unknown floor, completely blocked the way to climb up.

For Chen Mu, this was a dead end.

Because he was suspended in mid-air, he had almost no leverage point and could not attempt to damage the hardened bottom of the car.

A little below and to his right was a closed elevator door; he didn't know which floor it was on.

Similarly, lacking a foothold, he was unable to attempt to break or pry open the door.

The overlapping roars still echoed in the almost completely enclosed shaft, like the Grim Reaper knocking on the door, deafeningly loud.

He subconsciously looked down.

You can hardly see anything, because the faint light coming through the open elevator doors on the second basement level has completely disappeared.

But the roars echoing in his ears and the vibrations coming from the elevator shaft told him that danger was still approaching.

Chen Mu could almost imagine that layers upon layers of monsters poured into the bottom of the elevator shaft, so numerous that they completely blocked the door, making it impossible for any light to pass through.

He gritted his teeth, grabbed a rail with one hand, and pulled out his phone from the tactical belt at his waist with the other.

She was a petite girl from the south, with long, jet-black hair, soft and delicate features, moist eyes, and slightly flushed cheeks. She wore a pale yellow dress and stood on the vast grassland under the blue sky and white clouds, looking back at the camera like a tender yellow daisy, possessing both an inexplicable shyness and introversion and a vibrant, enthusiastic energy.

"Xiao An..."

Chen Mu's gaze softened uncontrollably for a moment, and he was momentarily lost in thought.

But he quickly recovered, unlocked his phone, turned on his flashlight, and peered down.

What came into view were dozens of corpses controlled by insects clinging to the elevator shaft wall, the closest of which was less than five meters away from him.

Stimulated by the light he shone, the monsters all looked up and roared at him.

Looking further down, countless monsters surged and pulled at each other as they slowly approached upwards, making Chen Mu hallucinate the breadworms he used to feed his hamsters. They were piled up together, wriggling and rolling, like a boiling ocean.

Chen Mu has trypophobia and is most afraid of this scene, but the girl likes hamsters, so he could only grit his teeth and do it before.

"roar--!"

The monster closest to him let out a roar and instantly climbed two or three meters higher, leaping into the air and pouncing on him.

Chen Mu kicked it in the face, knocking it over. It bounced back and forth against the elevator shaft wall a few times, knocking over a few of its kind, before falling into the "boiling ocean" below.

After observing for a while longer, he let out a slight sigh, a look of despair and resignation appearing on his face.

He had anticipated this situation before climbing into the elevator shaft.

At the time, he was thinking of trying anything, hoping that the elevator car might stop at a higher floor, and that the low-intelligence monsters might not be able to catch up with him when he reached the top, giving him enough time to find another way out.

Clearly, he underestimated the intelligence of those monsters.

He is now in a dead end with nowhere to escape.

The endless stream of monsters wouldn't give him enough time to try and destroy the elevator doors and cars.

Now that things have come to this, there is only one thing he can do.

Roar--!

The ferocious roar still echoed in the elevator shaft, making people's eardrums hurt. The monster below kept hitting the wall, and even the elevator door next to him trembled.

"Fuck you, it's so noisy!"

Chen Mu kicked over several more approaching monsters, then summoned the large-bellied phantom used for storing items, and pulled a tactical backpack out of its open mouth.

It was a bag filled with various explosives and demolition weapons, with two hand grenades hanging on the side.

Realistic weapons are ineffective against the supernatural, but these corpses controlled by insects still belong to humans and can be easily destroyed.

The monsters below seemed to have sensed his intentions, and their assault on the elevator shaft became even more ferocious, causing the elevator door next to him to tremble once more.

"Chen Mu..."

"Chen Mu..."

Why do I seem to hear someone calling me faintly...?

Is that Xiao An? Hehe, do you know I'm about to come find you?

Unfortunately, I was useless. I couldn't figure out the truth about the strange invasion before I died, end the tragedy of the strange invasion, and avenge you who died in the dungeon.

Chen Mu's expression softened for a moment, then gradually hardened and became ferocious, like a Vajra glaring at the approaching monster horde below.

"Chen Mu..."

"Chen Mu..."

The vibrations of the elevator doors became more and more noticeable, and the shouts in my ears became clearer and clearer.

This made him feel as if his lover was still by his side, giving him the courage to face death.

"Come on! You beasts! I'll take you to hell!!!"

An unprecedented will to die and fury surged in Chen Mu's heart. He roared at the monsters below, and at the same time, he barely managed to stand on a protruding crossbeam, securing his backpack with his right arm and grabbing the grenade hanging on the side with his right hand, while hooking the safety pin on the side of the grenade with his left index finger.

"roar--!"

The monsters responded with murderous roars.

"Chen Mu..."

"Chen Mu..."

Chen Mu yanked the pin off the grenade, letting out a fierce roar as well…

"ah--!!"

boom--!

The trembling elevator door next to him made a loud bang, finally deforming completely, and a footprint bulged out to one side of the elevator shaft, as if it had been kicked from the outside and smashed straight into Chen Mu.

Pfft—!

(ヾﾉ꒪ཫ꒪)

Chen Mu's fierce roar came to an abrupt halt. The elevator door, which had been blasted away, slammed unexpectedly against the elevator shaft wall, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

The elevator doors then plummeted downwards, smashing through several monsters along the way.

At the elevator door with one door missing, Qi Xie stood backlit, his left leg still in a kicking position, his expression furious:

"I've called you six times, you idiot! Can't you even answer?! Are you deaf?!"

As he spoke, black light flashed all over his body. He stepped directly into the empty elevator shaft, stood in mid-air, grabbed Chen Mu by the collar, and threw him out of the elevator shaft through the missing door.

Chen Mu gritted his teeth and refused to loosen his grip on his hands. After rolling twice on the ground, he struggled to his feet and carefully inserted the safety pin back into the safety lever, preventing the grenade from exploding.

"Cough cough..."

He coughed up blood twice more, his gaze fixed blankly on Qi Xie, as if he were looking at a sentient vehicle:

"You...you just kicked the locked elevator door open???"

An elevator door that is powered on but not unlocked by a specific key requires tons of force just to force it open to the left or right.

But this guy kicked the elevator door open with just a few kicks?!

Qi Xie's figure hovered, floating out of the elevator shaft and landing outside the elevator door. He glanced sideways at Chen Mu's urea snakeskin bag still hanging at his waist, nodded slightly, and ignored him. He turned to the side, pointing one hand into the elevator shaft, and said in a calm voice:

"Close your eyes."

Chen Mu was taken aback, then obediently turned his back and closed his eyes.

Then, he heard a loud scraping and collision sound, followed by an extremely terrifying loud noise that came from the bottom of the elevator shaft, as if some heavy object had hit the ground, causing the ground beneath Chen Mu's feet to tremble slightly.

This piqued Chen Mu's curiosity, but he dared not open his eyes to see what exactly had been thrown down.
