This sound seemed to be a signal, and cracking sounds were heard one after another.

The tiles above his head fell even faster, falling to the ground. Some of them hit the edge of the pool covered with unknown plants, making a loud noise.

The laboratory had been abandoned for many years and had been invaded by mutated plants. It was already on the verge of collapse, and any slight movement at this time could lead to extremely bad consequences.

The cracks on the roof became even wider, and the ceiling above them creaked and shook.

This scene clearly showed that the laboratory was about to collapse.

Song Qingxin cursed. This laboratory had to be built at the right time. Now that the two of them had come in, they were already in trouble. They were really unlucky.

The cracked roof above her head began to collapse, and a large number of bricks fell down. In order to avoid being crushed by the collapsed building, song qingxiao had no choice but to retreat.

The huge pillar on one side of the laboratory creaked as if it could not bear the weight. Song Qing turned his head and looked at the pillar that made the sound.

With a quick glance, song qingxiao noticed something strange about the pillar.

The pillar was originally very thick and held up the front of the longevity technology Hall. However, for some reason, the middle of the pillar seemed to have been scratched by something, leaving an ineffaceable mark.

The cement on the outside was removed, revealing the bent steel bars inside.

There was something the size of a palm hanging on the cement below. It looked like a piece of skin. Song qingxiao was about to reach out to grab it, but the pillar began to break from the middle. The support bent, and the rest of the pillar fell faster.

The stone bricks fell down and the sound of glass shattering was heard. The sound of the collapse was louder than the Thunder.

A large amount of dust and sand flew around. The fallen ceiling blocked the only light source. The entrance and exit of the laboratory were blocked by a large pile of stone bricks and other construction materials, forming a triangular sealed space.

The room was pitch black. Song qingxiao pinched her nose and quickly backed away until she was stuck to the wall of the laboratory.

It took a while for the sound of bricks falling outside the laboratory to subside. It was so dark that one could not even see their own fingers. The trembling of the ground had stopped, and the sound of some fine tiles falling was almost negligible.

If there were any dangerous creatures in the laboratory, they would have been woken up by such a huge commotion.

Song qingxiao and number seven held their breath at the same time, listening to the sounds around them.

The surroundings were extremely quiet. Through the half-collapsed ceiling of the laboratory, he could hear the lightning and thunder outside.

The air in the sealed room did not smell good. A large amount of dust mixed with a strange smell rushed into their noses. The two were silent for a while before number Seven’s dry voice sounded,”

“Did you, guess, guess wrong?”

Her voice sounded a little depressed in the cramped space, with a trace of joy and well-hidden malice.

From where the sound came from, song qingxiao estimated that number seven was about four or five meters away from her.

Song qingxiao also hoped that her judgment of the dangerous mutant creatures on the island was wrong. Of course, she didn’t want something difficult to deal with to appear here.

However, the mutant creatures that had disappeared from this half Island, the deformed electronic fence, the broken glass, and the deformed support pillar she saw before the laboratory collapsed all showed that something terrible had once been here.

She was still thinking about the piece of soft leather hanging on the deformed pillar before the laboratory collapsed. Unfortunately, now that the laboratory had collapsed, that thing was probably buried in the pile of stones.

“Maybe,”

She replied as she touched the wall behind her.

Before this place collapsed, she had roughly scanned the situation inside. It was a hall of nearly a hundred square meters.

Some of the equipment and supplies in the hall had already been moved away when the Zhou consortium first evacuated the island. However, whether it was the area or the environment, it did not look like the base of the Zhou consortium’s longevity technology. It was probably just the front of a Research Institute.

The real research Center should be hidden somewhere else.

The exit ahead had been blocked by abandoned stones. To move the abandoned stones and other heavy objects was not something that could be done with just a pair of hands. He did not know if the Zhou Corporation had arranged other exits when they first set up longevity technology.

The wall that she pressed her palm against was cold and smooth, like polished marble. Song qingxiao followed the stone and felt forward, trying to find some clues.

Amidst the rustling sounds, No. 7 probably had the same idea as her and was also exploring the surroundings.

Cracking sounds suddenly came from the sealed space, as if someone had touched the falling garbage or the tiles were crushed.

However, song qingxiao’s mind was extremely tense. When she heard the sound, she instinctively leaned against the wall and held her dagger. Even though she couldn’t see her surroundings clearly, she turned her head and was on guard.

“Who is it?”

Number seven suddenly asked, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Her reaction proved that the previous movement had nothing to do with her. Either the falling bricks and other objects made a sound when they moved, or something was hiding in the darkness, eyeing them covetously and preparing to hurt them.

The one hiding could be a mutated creature, or it could also be a person. It was number three, who was still missing and carrying a silver box.

The moment No. 7 spoke, he had already sensed that something was wrong. The next second, song qingxiao heard a gust of wind, followed by a strange ‘ding’ sound. It was like the sound of a metal object hitting a stone.

At the same time, there were hurried footsteps and a piercing sound of nails scratching the floor. These dodging footsteps should be made by number seven.

In the pitch-black space, a person had indeed appeared!

As soon as number Seven’s voice was heard, his position was locked on. One could imagine the anger in his heart.

“Song qingxiao, is that you?”

She dodged twice in a row. Her tone was a little sinister and had a bit of killing intent.

The only response she got was silence. Song qingxiao could easily guess the reason for number Seven’s question. He was trying to divert the disaster.

Everyone knew that the moment the laboratory collapsed, the invisible number three had also sneaked in, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

The darkness became her best protective color. As soon as she appeared, she began to attack. No matter how prepared No. 7 was, he should have been caught off guard.

She knew that it was number three who had attacked her. She spoke on purpose to make song qingxiao confirm her location.

Among the three of them, number seven and number three were already injured. Only song qingxiao’s appearance was intact. If possible, number three would definitely be willing to sneak attack her, injure her, and eliminate her from the three trial-takers.

Ambushing number seven was only a submissive move, and number Seven’s heart was as clear as a mirror.

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn’t get a response from song qingxiao.

What awaited her was a storm of sneak attacks from number three..
