Chapter 110

At this very moment, Lin Xian began to feel that his decision to risk coming down here had been a bit impulsive.

He didn't even dare to imagine what kind of thing was beneath this underground city that could trigger earthquakes.

Whoosh~

Lin Xian shook the remaining sand and soil off his body, feeling his heart sink.

But since they were already here, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and keep moving forward.

"Let's go."

"Wow, Lin Xian, if the earthquake collapses this place, the two of us will just be buried here," Kiki said as she walked.

"Sounds a bit more decent than being bitten to death by zombies and black bugs."

"Hey, aren't you afraid?"

"Being afraid is useless." Lin Xian shone his flashlight and walked quickly along the maintenance passage, his tone urgent. "Since we're already here, we have to get something out of it."

"Sigh, if I die here, I'll just have to be buried with a guy like you," Kiki muttered.

"If you're willing, you can go find that red handsome guy from earlier; it says hello, it's quite polite."

Lin Xian felt this girl had a strange train of thought, still cracking jokes in a life-or-death situation.

"Pah! I don't want to!"

She took two quick steps and pulled on Lin Xian's sleeve: "Then I'd rather be buried with you; at least I won't be a lonely ghost."

In the long, hollow tunnel leading downward, the two panted while whispering, their voices echoing constantly in the passage.

Lin Xian's flashlight shone forward constantly as he observed, when suddenly, he seemed to discover something and stopped abruptly.

Kiki, behind him, couldn't avoid it in time and ouch, bumped into Lin Xian's back.

"Why did you suddenly stop!"

Kiki rubbed her nose, only to see Lin Xian shining his flashlight toward the ceiling of the passage ahead. On the wall at that position, there was a brownish-red object, the size of a washbasin, irregular in shape, looking like some kind of biological tissue.

"Is that... meat?" Kiki's brows furrowed deeply, her expression becoming uglier the more she looked. "Hey, there's more ahead!"

She exclaimed. Lin Xian shone his flashlight over, and sure enough, he discovered more flesh tissue appearing ahead. These things looked like tumors growing on the wall, making one feel physically uncomfortable.

Lin Xian's expression turned slightly stern. He picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the nearest piece of flesh tissue.

Plop~

The stone bounced off; there was no movement, and the stone wasn't corroded.

So Lin Xian walked forward and reached out to press on the flesh tissue.

"What the hell is this? Did meat-ganoderma grow in the soil?"

"Lin Xian, something is very wrong here..."

Lin Xian's expression tightened, and he continued to walk forward.

As they went deeper, the flesh tissue in the tunnel passage became more and more numerous and dense, and larger chunks of tissue began to appear.

"Lin Xian, don't you feel like we've somehow entered the belly of some monster?"

"I have that feeling too." Lin Xian wasn't joking; he really did have that feeling.

The flesh tissue ahead gradually increased, and just as the two were curiously examining it, Kiki behind him suddenly pulled him.

"Lin Xian, careful!"

Whoosh!

A gust of cold wind rushed toward them. Lin Xian only then came to his senses. The light from the flashlight in his hand seemed to be swallowed up ahead. When he looked carefully, he discovered that the tunnel ahead and the wall on the right had completely disappeared, revealing several giant hollows, and the tunnel had also broken off here...

"My god!"

Kiki exclaimed. She took a step forward and discovered that the two were now standing on the edge of a cliff. The entire wall on the right was exposed, and a glimmer of moonlight fell from the sky. Looking up, she could actually see the giant square entrance above the underground city, presenting the regular outline of a human architectural creation in the night.

It turned out the spiral tunnel followed the inner wall of the underground city pit downward. At this point, the two were below level 90, and looking up, the sky pit above already looked like the mouth of a well.

And this broken area seemed to have collapsed as a whole. Dense brownish-red flesh tissue spread downward along the collapse opening, and beneath the underground city, a giant hill had been piled up from the excavated soil pit.

Now that he was closer, Lin Xian actually discovered the illusion that the large patches of flesh before his eyes were slowly breathing. "This thing is growing from below."

Lin Xian and Kiki both came to the edge of the broken track, their gazes looking down into the deep pit below.

"Lin Xian, look, is there something there?" Kiki's voice carried doubt.

The flashlight in Lin Xian's hand shone out, but it was completely extinguished in the night and blizzard; he couldn't see anything, only the flesh tissue beneath his feet spreading downward like a waterfall.

"Where?"

"There!"

Kiki pointed toward the direction of the hill in the very center of the underground city pit.

Lin Xian focused his flashlight, discovering that he still couldn't reach the bottom.

"I don't see anything."

"Where are you talking about?"

"Hmm?"

!

As Lin Xian spoke, he discovered that Kiki hadn't responded to him at all. Looking back, Kiki was frozen in place, slowly taking off her gas mask. Under the moonlight, Lin Xian could even see her revealing a terrified expression toward him.

Kiki raised her finger, slowly pointing toward the center, and then her other hand,

turned off the flashlight in Lin Xian's hand.

Click.

The flashlight light went out, and the surrounding darkness became clearer because of the moonlight.

Lin Xian looked in the direction of Kiki's finger—it was pitch black. He narrowed his eyes and raised his gaze.

Suddenly, his pupils also shrank violently.

It turned out Kiki wasn't pointing to a specific direction; she was pointing at the giant hill in the darkness.

When he looked at that entire patch of darkness as a whole, he was shocked to discover that the hill actually had the outline of some kind of creature.

It was as if...

A giant fish covered in arms!!!

Hiss!

Lin Xian immediately gasped. He looked at that giant outline, his eyes full of disbelief. The giant scale in the darkness was at least a thousand meters across.

Following his gaze, he seemed to see a mountain-like body, with countless flesh spreading from the center to the city walls around the underground city, growing!

At this moment, a thought arose in the hearts of Lin Xian and Kiki almost simultaneously.

This is a living thing!

If nothing went wrong, this giant creature lurking in the darkness of the underground city pit was the source of the earthquake from earlier!

"My... god!"

Kiki covered her small mouth tightly, not even daring to make a loud sound at this moment, fearing she would disturb the giant existence in the darkness.

"Lin Xian... is this... the underground creature they were talking about?"

"Perhaps... it is."

Lin Xian's expression was horrified, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Did this thing emerge from the ground..."

The reason he was so horrified was that since the apocalypse arrived, humans seemed to have a consensus: as long as they hid underground, they could gain more safety.

But at this moment, the dark existence in the No. 9 underground city pit before their eyes appeared before Lin Xian and Kiki in an almost suffocating way.

370,000 people died overnight, and the sturdy underground city built at a cost of trillions also fell directly.

In front of these bizarre creatures from the darkness.

Humans are like ants!
