Apocalyptic Capsule System

But Lin Cheng, who had just arrived here, didn't want to let Coke go around like this, so he kicked it lightly to signal it to stay here, and then slowly took out a dagger made of 'black jade' from the back of his waist, Slowly touch in the direction where the footsteps came from just now.

He, Bai Ling, and Coke obviously searched all the nearby buildings before the sky completely darkened. Although they didn't search too carefully because they had too few people and too many buildings, they still With the current strength of the three of them, as long as there are people in the room, they can detect the breath of living people through the wall, so this is also the strangest place for him. He has clearly confirmed that there are no living people around here, but How did the slight but very real sound of footsteps come from just now?

Feeling that the situation seemed a little weird, Lin Cheng raised his spirits, his body tensed, and he walked slowly downstairs along the stairs.

And the moment he walked out of the capsule house, the sound of footsteps never sounded again, as if the owner of the footsteps had already sensed his existence the moment he opened the door, and now he was secretly dormant Get up, maybe you are hiding in a corner waiting for him to send you to the door.

Because of this consideration, Lin Cheng didn't dare to relax his vigilance at all. Even though his current strength and equipment would definitely be able to counterattack even if he was attacked by the opponent in close quarters, he still didn't want to give the opponent a chance.

Slowly going down to the fourth floor, seeing that the sound of footsteps still didn't sound again, Lin Cheng frowned secretly, wondering if this guy is really so against the sky, right?

When he opened the door of the capsule house, it can be said that he had suppressed the movement to a minimum, and the Coke lying at the door did not make any sound from the beginning to the end, even when he encountered this situation, he could not be aware that he had already Come out, could the other party be more sensitive than his sense of danger?

But it's not a problem to be so frozen. Since there is movement, it means that there is definitely a living thing in this city. No matter whether the living thing is a human or a monster, he has to 'invite' the other party out, because If you want to find information in such a dead city, you must meet a person or monster who once lived here.

Standing in place, he deduced in his mind the exact location where the footsteps might have come from just now. Relying on his perverted memory reorganization ability, he finally deduced that the footsteps just now should have come from the corridor in the northwest corner of the second floor. Yes, that location is right under the corridor from the second floor to the third floor. It can be said to be a relatively hidden corner, and it can be regarded as a corner that is more suitable for hiding.

After confirming the location, Lin Cheng no longer hesitated, and continued to go down to the second floor according to the rhythm just now. After he got down to the second floor, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the dark corner under the stairs, and found that there was nothing there. Can't help frowning slightly.

"clatter……"

Suddenly, just when he wanted to go closer and search carefully,

A familiar sound of footsteps suddenly came again, and this time the sound of footsteps was no longer in that corner, but less than one meter away from behind him!

"Shuh—!"

Without even thinking about it, Lin Cheng, who had been holding the black jade dagger, turned around and swung it back the moment he heard the sound of footsteps. Even though the force of the swing was under control, it was still enough to knock any monsters away. Cheng was seriously injured!

But what he didn't expect was that his confident wave slashed into the air. Turning around and looking, he found that there was not even a ghost behind him, let alone a monster. The sound of footsteps It was as if a ghost had passed through the territory, and after that, there was a burst of nothingness.

"..."

Naturally, Lin Cheng would not believe that he had encountered a ghost. Strange things emerge endlessly in this last world, but he didn't think ghosts would appear among them. Since he clearly heard footsteps and turned around but didn't see anyone, then It can only explain one thing, the footsteps sounded from a lower position than he imagined!

Thinking of this, Lin Cheng directly lowered his head to look at the ground, and then felt a sudden tightening in his heart!

It turned out that on the floor not far in front of him, there was a group of mice with black and shiny fur scrambling towards the stairs leading to the first floor. The size of these mice was getting bigger and bigger, and the biggest one was even faster. It was as good as half-aged Coke, and the weirdest thing was that although the group of mice ran fast, they didn't make a sound, just like a group of ghosts crawling quickly on the ground.

As for the footsteps that sounded twice, when he saw a broken leather shoe being pushed back and forth by the group of giant mice, he couldn't help a wry smile. For a long time, the so-called footsteps were just the group of mice accidentally migrating. He bumped into what was sent out, and because he hadn't paid much attention to his feet, he didn't notice this problem at the first time.

This group of mice came and went quickly. In less than a minute, this group of astonishingly large mice disappeared at the stairs, leaving only the broken leather shoe that was pushed back and forth by them in place.

"It turned out that the group of mice ran out in waves. I said why didn't I see them when I first came down."

Picking up the leather shoes and taking a look, after confirming that the footsteps just now were indeed made by this leather shoe, Lin Cheng shook his head speechlessly, then threw the leather shoes on the ground, and was about to go back to the capsule house to continue resting, but suddenly Thinking of something, he turned around and walked towards the corner of the stairs behind him.

Because he suddenly realized a problem just now, this city is obviously just an empty city, how could it be possible to breed such a group of rats that can be called fat and oily?

You know, just counting the group of mice that passed by his feet just now, there were nearly thirty of them. Although the sizes of these mice were uneven, they were all five to ten times larger than ordinary mice without exception. Such an unscientific body shape can't even be compared to the fat rats who hang around in the back kitchen of a restaurant, so Lin Cheng wants to search along the location where they appeared just now, to see if he can find any unusual clues.

When he got to the bottom of the stairs, Lin Cheng could only bend down and squat on the ground because the height was too low. He took out his flashlight and looked around, but found that there was not even an ant hole here, let alone a mouse hole.

"Tsk, that's weird..."

After searching carefully along the wall for a long time, Lin Cheng, who still found nothing, stopped, frowned and muttered to himself, according to the size of the group of mice just now, if they want to appear in large numbers, there must be a big mouse nearby The hole, but no matter how he searched, he couldn't find any clues at all. The group of mice seemed to appear out of nowhere, which puzzled him in every possible way.
