Just like the operating logic of this graveyard world, there are no light sources inside the elevator, only the eerie red light emitted by the indicator lights when the elevator is running.

"...Fine, let's take a gamble."

After hanging up the phone somewhat awkwardly, Su Qun let out a breath as he looked at the floor he was about to reach.

Several seconds later, when the elevator arrived and the doors had just opened a crack, he slipped out through the crack as quickly as an eel.

Based on his experience, the area outside the elevator was a dead end. Under the moonlight, there was a great terror hidden in that face. In his inexplicable premonition, the consequences of entering the moonlight would be even worse than being merged with that fusion monster. After leaving the elevator, his only hiding place, he would have nowhere to escape.

Unless... you choose to live in the face of death.

Seeing that the elevator carrying the fusion monster was about to arrive at his floor, Suqun no longer hesitated and quickly ran to the door of the stairwell on this floor.

It's true that the door to the stairwell can't be opened from inside the stairwell, but considering that the fusion monster can enter the stairwell from outside, it should also be able to open the door leading to the stairwell from outside.

"...Why? There are many reasons."

Sitting in a corner outside a late-night food stall, Bai Chen pursed his lips in response to Yin Hongxiao's curious question beside him.

"Either the hallway door is locked from the outside, or the door can't be opened from this side... I've always thought this design is pretty terrible."

If he wasn't very confident about saving the person before, after listening to Su Qun's description, he is now 70% confident that he can rescue the other person.

What he was most worried about was that the fusion monster would rush up to the group and tear him apart and eat him, but judging from the fact that the other party still had to obediently take the elevator with him, the other party was also bound by the rules.

If that's the case, then things become much easier.

The only pity is that Su Qun wasted too many opportunities before, hiding in the elevator and playing hide-and-seek with others for a full 22 floors. Is that something a human could do?

The fewer floors there are, the less space there is to hide. Hiding in an elevator may seem like a safe act, but in reality, it is a way to gradually drive yourself into a desperate situation.

After glancing around to make sure no one was paying attention, Bai Chen took out a black box about the size of his palm from his backpack.

--------------

【Item Name: Akara's Box】

[Type: Consumable]

[Quality: Rare]

[Effect: Delivery. After a certain fee is paid, the box will be delivered to the target, regardless of their location.]

[Cost: Depends on the distance to the teleport location.]

[Note: Only items placed in a box can be transferred.]

--------------

Although this item is said to have a strong ability to teleport across space, its value is diminished because it can only teleport items stored in the box, and teleportation requires additional costs. Furthermore, it is a consumable item.

Even so, thanks to its powerful intelligence capabilities brought by zero-delay transmission, this thing is still priceless on the market, and currently only relevant departments know how to obtain it.

If it weren't for his connection with Mo Xuan, he might not have been able to obtain this item in such a short time. This thing is a perfect match for his [Flat World].

If he wanted, he could even stuff a whole truck into the box…

"A single teleport costs 3000 game coins, which is equivalent to 300,000 RMB... Luckily, I had the foresight to borrow some from Mo Xuan beforehand."

While mentally complaining, Bai Chen put several cards into the box. Just before closing the box, he thought for a moment and then took out another card and put it in. Unlike the gray cards he had put in before, this new card was emerald green.

After the information from the card collection book was read, the [Mirror Breaker] card, which was originally a white card, has now been completely transformed.

--------------

【Card Name: The Hand of the Prison Painter】

[Category: Concept]

[Level: Green]

【Effect ①: Heart of Fear】

[Description: Allows you to specify a target whose heart rate increases drastically, reaching their physiological limits, inducing panic, exhaustion, or cardiac arrest.]

【Effect 2: Touch of Sleep】

[Description: Induces a designated target into an irresistible deep sleep through contact.]

【Effect 3: From Illusion to Reality】

[Description: The non-existent objects drawn will temporarily solidify, falling from illusion into reality.]

[Note: When a painting is imbued with too many expectations, the things depicted in it yearn to come into this world.]

--------------

He didn't have many suitable cards at the moment, but this card was just right.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

After returning to the familiar stairwell, Su Qun heard the noise coming from behind and ran downstairs without hesitation.

There are 32 floors in total. Currently, there are two stairwell doors that can be opened from the outside. One is the 11th floor that he just opened, and the other is the 3rd floor that the monster opened himself.

Although he was exhausted after a long and arduous journey, his throat was so dry it felt like it was on fire, and his groin was aching, he dared not linger for a moment in the face of new hope.

The only saving grace was that, due to its enormous size, the fusion monster that was relentlessly pursuing him was much slower than he had imagined, giving him more time to catch his breath.

As time went by, the corridor became increasingly dark. Fortunately, he remembered Bai Chen's instructions and kept his location firmly in mind, so he didn't go astray. When he came out of the corridor door on the 3rd floor and returned to his starting point, he suddenly felt relieved.

Judging from the speed at which the fusion monster behind him was descending the stairs, he had at least five minutes of safe time left.

"Then, the next step is crucial..."

Taking a deep breath, Su Qun approached the elevator and pressed the down button.

When he saw the red indicator light go down, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Chen's prediction was completely correct. Although he had not yet found a way to completely leave this place, he should not die in the short term.

"To be able to accurately deduce the escape route based on just that little bit of information I gave you... if he were here, he'd probably be out by now, right?"

Leaning against the wall, Su Qun muttered something to himself.

"If I'd known I'd make it out alive, I wouldn't have said so much nonsense... huh?"

As if sensing something, Suqun subconsciously reached out his hand forward.

The next second, a black wooden box appeared out of thin air in his palm.
