Chapter 9

Welt Yang and Himeko saw the danger, but they couldn't reach the two of them at all.

The other party's signal was completely blocked.

It seemed that there was a strange power around that eerie containment item that could cut off all communication.

Even the broadcast signals inside the space station couldn't reach there.

The only thing the two could do now was to cross the entire space station at the fastest speed and intercept them.

……

March 7th and Seeing Dan Heng were cautious.

Not letting go of every blind spot, not letting go of any corner.

Fearing that one moment of negligence would lead them to follow in the footsteps of the Voidrangers.

But even so, with every step she took, March 7th felt her heart stop for a beat.

And the scene before her eyes...

Except for the fact that this was indeed the space station...

Nothing else matched the characteristics the space station should have.

Calling it the Otherworld from "Silent Hill" would not be an exaggeration.

Terrifying!

Oppressive!

The lighting system had been destroyed, and the corridor was pitch black.

In the area illuminated by the searchlight...

The mottled walls were a reddish-brown, not knowing if it was blood or rust, mixed with wall skin that was about to peel off.

Occasionally.

One could also see black slime that blended into the darkness.

If March 7th had another chance to choose, she would definitely bring more equipment before coming here to save people.

It's too scary!

I don't want to play anymore!

In the image.

Just as the two were about to unlock the passage door.

They saw.

The Old Man's figure slowly merged into the wall and disappeared.

"!"

The audience's hearts were squeezed tight.

This was the ability clearly recorded in the file, that the Old Man could travel through solid matter!

The air seemed to have frozen.

March 7th: "Seeing Dan Heng, no target found ahead."

Seeing Dan Heng: "Stay alert, we cannot guarantee that the files provided by the Foundation cover all information about the containment item."

Just as the two confirmed that this cabin section was safe.

They didn't notice.

Behind them, in the place not illuminated by light.

A pair of rotting hands, covered in black slime, slowly emerged from the ground, reaching toward March 7th's clean ankles.

Watching March 7th about to fall victim to the poison hand.

Himeko gripped the communicator tightly, running at full speed while shouting:

"Look behind you! Look behind you!"

The response received.

Was only static.

In the image.

The Old Man launched an attack.

At the critical moment, Seeing Dan Heng pushed March 7th away, causing the Old Man's attack to miss.

"Ouch!"

March 7th was stunned at first, then realized what had happened.

Subsequently, she saw the Old Man's highly decayed face.

"Seeing Dan Heng, save me!"

Saying this, she leaped out, pulled out an ice arrow, and shot it at the Old Man.

The ice arrow shattered in mid-air, turning into countless ice particles, staining a large area with frost white, intending to freeze the Old Man along with it.

But it failed.

The Old Man's rotting flesh was frozen, but it still sank into the floor.

Seeing Dan Heng thrust his spear, prying open the floor, but found nothing.

Just as the two were on alert, two rotting palms emerged from the ceiling, aiming straight for their crowns.

The two, having been prepared, barely dodged the blow, but saw the Old Man's body pounce from above, "merging" into the floor once again.

Just like diving into water.

"Damn it!"

March 7th gritted her teeth, her face turning pale.

If the Old Man were allowed to continue like this, wouldn't the entire space station become its nest?!

In the darkness, the Old Man's lip-less smile emerged from the bulkhead, and the moment it was illuminated by light, it suddenly disappeared.

In the next moment, the Old Man appeared on the other side; Seeing Dan Heng's spear struck like a dragon, but it still missed.

The other party was clearly playing a cat-and-mouse game.

Just as she was feeling somewhat desperate.

"Duang!"

A drop pod pierced through the ceiling of the corridor from top to bottom.

The powerful impact forcibly sent the three flying to the side.

March 7th, Seeing Dan Heng: "?"

Immediately after, a beam of light shot out from it, piercing the Old Man's skull.

Next, the chest and abdomen.

The sudden heavy blow finally deprived the Old Man of part of its mobility.

March 7th felt a surge of joy.

She saw three warriors dressed like tin cans walk out.

They were tall and wore uniform, bulky power armor.

Each person's shoulder armor bore the Foundation logo!

……

At the same time, on the other side of the universe.

A voice also sounded in Bai Xuan's mind.

【SCP-106 recovery successful!】

【System reward issued!】
