This power seemed to be able to destroy the world, and it was beyond the ability of a small human.
The ceiling above them was cut open, and bean-sized raindrops fell on song Qing’s small face and body. It was cold and painful.
The long-lost fresh air and rain poured into her throat, choking her and almost making her cough.
However, when she recalled the previous scene, song qingxiao instinctively shut her mouth and did not dare to make a sound.
Tonight, there were lightning and thunder, and it was raining cats and dogs. The wind was howling, and the rain drenched her body, making her tremble.
Her body flew out like a broken kite. Song qingxiao held back her fear and wiped her face. Under the rain that fell like a curtain, she forced her eyes open.
Looking down from above, the laboratory was completely destroyed, as if someone was holding something and stirring a cake into pieces.
The ground was destroyed, and number Seven’s original hiding place was destroyed. He wondered how she was doing.
A large amount of seawater that had already flooded the underground laboratory seemed to have found an outlet. It began to spread upward, matching with the heavy rain, causing shallow water to quickly accumulate on the cracked ground.
In the pile of flying gravel, a huge shadow stood with its head up, but its figure was blocked by the hazy rain, fog, and flying sand and stones, so it was not clear.
Even though he had not seen the true appearance of the object, the domineering aura it exuded still made song Qingxin’s heart turn cold.
This kind of danger and power made people tremble. It was as if it was undefeatable. Just its aura alone was enough to suppress people, making people unable to summon the courage to challenge it.
A dejected thought flashed through song qingxiao’s mind. She didn’t know if No. 7 was Dead or Alive, but the mission prompt in the sea of consciousness changed at this time!
The corner of the hexagram magic array, which had not changed for a long time, was lit up again, and the reflection of a mouse appeared on it.
Four of the six corners had been lit up. Only two more mutated creatures were needed to light up the magic array.
[ mutant creatures killed: bat, crocodile, man-eating ant, white rat (mission progress 67%) ]
[ mission completed: 2000 points ]
[ sacrifice progress: 5/6 ]
[ mission completed: 2000 points ]
Song qingxiao’s heart sank when she saw the progress of the mission.
After the sea water rose, the rats in the underground laboratory were drowned. A large number of genetically mutated fish appeared, causing the rats to go extinct quickly. This should be the reason for the completion of the mission.
However, for some reason, after the rats were eliminated, the mission progress only increased by 11%.
At present, four types of mutated creatures had been lit up, but the mission progress was still 33% before it was completed.
Song qingxiao was injured, and it was difficult for her to even protect herself. Completing the mission was even more difficult.
What worried her the most was that No. 7’s condition was still unknown.
An unknown creature on the island had destroyed the laboratory. It would be fine if number seven was still alive, but if he was dead, there would be one less participant to sacrifice for this mission.
However, she didn’t have time to think so much. Her body fell rapidly and with a ‘boom’, she fell into the pile of rubble. Some of the flying building debris fell on her body and covered her figure.
These things fell down one after another, causing her consciousness to gradually blur.
Although the heavy object had injured her and even aggravated the injury she had sustained when she jumped off the cliff, these things formed a hidden space and hid her inside. Song qingxiao was slightly relieved before she completely lost consciousness.
“Retribution…”
The last thing she heard was the sound of falling objects and professor Yan’s sorrowful sigh. Then, her consciousness fell into endless darkness.
Cold…
After the strengthening, song qingxiao’s alertness and physical strength allowed her to slowly wake up after a short coma.
“..’’While she was half-awake, something was still shouting in her ear.
“Come out…” The voice seemed to be deliberately made by someone who was holding his throat. It was hoarse and unpleasant to hear, and it had an indescribable horror.
Who was talking? In her daze, the voice sounded again,” come out…
Song qingxiao was woken up by a bone-chilling cold. Half of her body was soaked in water, and she felt as if a heavy mountain was pressing on her, making her breathless.
His entire body was wrapped in this chill. It was so cold and numb that he could no longer feel anything.
The eyelids were extremely heavy. She tried to open them, but no matter what, she could not.
She took a deep breath, and the stone on her back pressed against her chest. A heart-piercing pain spread from her sternum and began to spread to her limbs.
It hurt!
This was the only consciousness in her mind at this time. Several more ribs were broken, and some of them had probably pierced into her internal organs. Every breath she took was like a torture, with a little bloody smell.
Her numb body began to recover, and a great amount of pain swept through her consciousness.
But at this moment, song Qing was not shocked. Instead, she was happy. The pain meant that her body was still conscious. She was even more afraid that her body would not listen to her and she would lie down and wait for death.
In her excitement, she gasped for breath several times in a row, and the pain became deeper with each breath, as if it was layered, making her feel worse than death.
However, the pain also stimulated her consciousness, causing her scattered consciousness to slowly come back, and her rationality gradually returned.
She moved her fingers, and the mysterious dagger was still in her palm.
The moment song qingxiao touched the dagger, she heaved a sigh of relief. She moved her other hand. The hand that was originally on her waist was now soaked in cold, salty water. The water smelled like seawater. When her fingers touched the water, it made a light ‘sizzling’ sound.
She used all her strength and touched her waist. The secret pocket there was slightly protruding, and the medicine was still inside, making her completely relieved.
After confirming his situation and that the important things were still with him, song Qing felt much more at ease.
The only bad thing was that his spiritual power had been exhausted.
A deformed beam pressed down on her body, blocking most of the heavy objects for her, allowing her to luckily keep her life. It also supported a small space for her. Through the cracks in the rubble, she could vaguely see the darkness outside with her half-opened eyes.
“Come out…”
The voice wasn’t her hallucination. Someone was really shouting outside.
Could it be that the dangerous mutant creature on the island had left? So those who were lucky enough to survive would try to find a survivor in the ruins?
Song Qingxin was overjoyed. She instinctively wanted to reach out and push away the heavy object on her body. She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but the voice spoke again,”
“1 can see you …” The voice was shrill, and it was as if his throat had been ground by sand paper. It was creepy to hear.
“Come out…”
It was pitch black outside, and she couldn’t even see her fingers. The voice came from the darkness, and song qingxiao’s hair stood on end instinctively, pressing against her wet, torn clothes..
