"I did this...?" Reg's eyes widened, looking at the shocking scene he created in front of him, and looked at his arm in disbelief. His eyes were full of astonishment and confusion. It was really hard to imagine that such a powerful attack was actually launched from his own hand. "It is worthy of being the treasure of Naraku. This kind of attack power is really terrifying." Lin Yi approached the sky above where Reg's [Cardinal Light] attacked and began to check. According to the attack method of Reg's [Cardinal Light] just now, Su Xiao's Apollo had to give way in front of Reg's [Cardinal Light]. Apollo is a weapon that can clean up a large area. Reg's [Cardinal Light] focuses the energy in front of a small area through the palm of his hand. Although the energy burst out by both sides may be the same to some extent, there is no doubt that Reg's [Cardinal Light] is definitely more lethal. Just when Li Ke excitedly asked how Reg had managed the attack, Reg's vision suddenly blurred, and the sound in his ears gradually disappeared, as if blocked by an invisible barrier. The next second, Reg felt dizzy, and his body softened and fell directly into Li Ke's arms. "Reg?! Reg! Are you okay?" Li Ke hugged Reg's body tightly, with a panic expression on her face.
Lin Yi had expected it, and jumped lightly to Li Ke's side. "It's okay, Reg consumed too much energy at one time, and now his body should be in sleep mode. It will be fine when he recovers." "Sleep mode?" Li Ke obviously didn't understand what Lin Yi meant by sleep mode. "In short, Reg is going to sleep for a while, and it will be fine when he wakes up." Lin Yi explained patiently. Hearing this, Li Ke nodded, and then hurriedly took out a blanket from her backpack. She gently spread the blanket under Reg, hoping that this would make Reg sleep more comfortably. In his sleep, Reg fell into a terrible nightmare. He dreamed that Rico had turned into the corpse that was just devoured by the Weeping Corpse Bird, and Reg himself fell to the ground. No matter how he struggled, his body seemed to be bound by invisible shackles and he could not move at all. Reg watched Rico covered in blood, and she slowly turned her head and looked at him. Her eyes were extremely empty, like an endless abyss, and looked very terrifying. That kind of eyes were not human eyes at all, and Reg felt an indescribable fear in his heart. Then, the ground began to shake violently. A huge beam of light appeared directly from under Rico, devouring Rico and the Weeping Corpse Bird together. Seeing this scene, Reg suddenly opened his eyes, his chest heaved violently, and he gasped heavily. "Having a nightmare? Drink some water to calm it down." Lin Yi said as he took out a bottle of mineral water and threw it to Reg. Reg didn't care where Lin Yi got this thing from at this time. He quickly reached out to catch the mineral water bottle, unscrewed the cap and gulped it down. The cool water flowed down his throat. Only after he finished drinking half a bottle of water did Reg finally feel that his panicked heart gradually calmed down and his panic was suppressed. "I just..." Reg looked at his palm and always felt that the scene just now was like a dream.
"It's time to go. Don't be so reckless in the future. Remember, anything can happen in the abyss. If you don't know what to do, you can ask Liko for advice." After hearing Lin Yi's words, Reg replied in a low voice, "I know." It can only be said that the Abyss Abyss is still the Abyss Abyss after all. After arriving at the second floor, the Abyss first gave Rico and Reg a head start. Now both of them have put away their arrogance and showed the qualities that cave explorers should have. Lin Yi didn't need to say much along the way, Reg took the initiative to take on the important task of exploring intelligence for the three people. Rico relied on her rich experience to identify the surrounding landmarks and ensure that the three people were in the right direction. With the efforts of the two, Lin Yi was the most idle one for a while. Following the rock wall and going down, the three finally successfully reached the bottom of the second floor of the Abyss [Inverted Forest]. Here, everything is turned upside down, presenting a wonderful landscape beyond imagination. The trees here are extremely unique, and the trunks are all growing downwards, like inverted giants, stretching their bodies tenaciously. And their roots are firmly rooted in the soil above. In mid-air, Lin Yi even saw the waterfall flying into the sky, and the water flow was like a silver ribbon, dancing in the wind, forming a shocking picture. As for the cause of this situation, it was all due to the strong wind blowing out of the third layer of the abyss [Great Break]. This wind was extremely strong, whistling and sweeping, blowing the waterfall to make the water flow upstream, thus creating this spectacular scene. "Is this the [Inverted Forest]?" Riko hid behind Reg and Lin Yi, holding on to her clothes. The wind here was really too strong, and Riko felt a little cold. Even though the cave exploration suit on Li Ke has the function of keeping warm, it is just an ordinary piece of clothing after all, and it is completely incomparable to the nano-level disaster protection suit (type X) worn by Lin Yi. "Put on this thick cloak." Lin Yi took out two thick plush cloaks from his personal space. After Li Ke and Reg put on the cloaks, they immediately felt much warmer. Reg came to a tree and prepared to move towards the forward base as usual. What Reg did not expect was that the airflow in the air was too strong. As soon as Reg's arm was launched, the hook was ruthlessly blown away by the airflow from the Great Fault in mid-air, and it was impossible to grab the tree trunk in the distance and pass smoothly. "Okay, just follow the normal path here, otherwise if you fall down, it's no joke." Lin Yi pointed down, and Reg and Li Ke came here, and immediately felt a strong wind blowing violently from below. The wind roared like an angry dragon, as if it was going to sweep everything into the endless abyss. Riko tried to open her eyes and finally noticed that below them was the entrance to the third layer of the abyss. Once they fell from here, they would definitely end up with nothing left.
So the three of them left the Inverted Forest and started to head towards the surveillance base from the outside of the Inverted Forest. As they walked, Riko's body began to shake, and at this time Reg discovered that Riko's legs and feet had swollen at some point. Reg calculated and found that if he calculated from the road they had just left, Riko's ascent height had exceeded 10 meters. But Riko had been holding back and didn't say anything, so Reg and Lin Yi didn't notice it. "What's wrong?" "Brother Lin, Riko has triggered the ascension curse again." Reg said anxiously. After hearing this, Lin Yi hurried to Riko's side, and sure enough, he saw Riko's calf swollen like a pig's hoof. He gently pulled open his trouser legs, only to see that Li's ankles had turned purple-red, and the shocking color made people feel distressed. "Sorry, I thought I could hold on." Li's eyes were a little blurry, and now Li's eyes were a little double. "It's okay, close your eyes." Lin Yi said gently, and put his palm on Li's forehead. Li's eyes closed obediently, and as the light of the purification technique came on, Li's chaotic brain suddenly became much clearer. At this time, Li felt a sharp pain in her legs. Because her brain was too chaotic before, Li's pain was also abnormal. Now that her brain has returned to normal, the severe pain immediately appeared in Li's body. Lin Yi saw Li's grinning face, and knew that she had returned to normal, and then used the healing technique to dispel the pain in Li's body. [Successfully treated Rico, talent ‘Redeemer activated’, permanently increased 30 health points, 15 Abyssal Power, soul strength increased by 1, current health points 11622 points, Abyssal Power 10680 points, soul strength 62 points. ] “Ah? It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Rico suddenly felt that her calf had returned to normal. When Rico looked at it again, the calf that was originally swollen like a pig’s hoof had now returned to normal. “Remember to tell me as soon as you have any problems in the future, okay?” Lin Yi was relieved when he saw that Rico was fine. Now it was only the second floor, and it was still far from the sixth floor of the abyss. Lin Yi didn’t want Rico to get into trouble now. “Well, I know.” Rico nodded slightly, then looked at Lin Yi with a puzzled look and asked, “But, Brother Lin, are you really not affected by the rising load? Reg is a robot, so it’s reasonable that he won’t be affected by it, but why aren’t you affected, Brother Lin?” Hearing Rico’s question, Reg immediately cast his eyes on Lin Yi curiously. Reg had been wanting to ask this question just now. After all, along the way, Lin Yi showed no signs of being affected by the abyss force field. That was why Reg mistakenly thought that Li Ke was also fine. "My situation is indeed a bit special." Lin Yi said after a little thought, "You can regard me as a native creature of the Abyss Abyss. The abyss force field here doesn't have much effect on me." "Okay, we'll be at the surveillance base soon, let's go." "Yeah." Li Ke didn't ask too much. After hearing Lin Yi's words, she trotted behind Lin Yi and carefully grabbed the corner of Lin Yi's clothes and moved forward. Reg looked at Lin Yi curiously again, and his intuition told him that Lin Yi was definitely not a creature of the Abyss Abyss. The second floor of the abyss, the [Inverted Forest] surveillance base. Maluluku was sitting in front of a huge telescope looking at the environment around the surveillance base.
Although the location of Orson's surveillance base is located on the edge of the Inverted Forest, this does not mean that this edge area is an absolutely safe area. Many abyssal creatures that cannot survive in the central area will come here to seek opportunities for survival. Maluluku's task is to sit here and monitor the surrounding situation at all times to prevent abyssal creatures from approaching and threatening the monitoring base. At the same time, once he finds a cave explorer approaching, he must open the elevator for the other party in time. "Master, three strangers are coming." After seeing Lin Yi, Li Ke and the other two through the telescope, Maluluku showed a strange look on his face. In the Abyss, Marulukku had never seen a child as old as himself. "Stranger." After hearing this, Orson raised his eyelids and sat up from his seat, walked to the telescope and looked in the direction of Lin Yi. As if sensing someone staring at him, Lin Yi reflexively looked up at the direction of the telescope. At this moment, Orson and Lin Yi looked at each other through the telescope. After seeing Lin Yi's eyes, Orson immediately understood that the other party had noticed that he was monitoring them. Especially Riko who was following behind Lin Yi. Orson recognized her identity the first time he saw Riko. Even if Riko turned into ashes, Orson could recognize her iconic blonde hair and crystal glasses. "Master, what are you going to do?" Seeing Orson leaving the monitoring room directly, Marulukku asked a little puzzled. But Orson did not answer Marulukku's question. Now the aura on Orson was very strange. A bit violent, a bit nostalgic, and a bit regretful. It was the first time that Maluluku saw Orson show such a complex emotion. "Just now, someone was watching us." Lin Yi narrowed his eyes and looked at the direction of the surveillance base. "Is it the enemy?" Reg instantly showed a vigilant posture. He did not sense the sight that Lin Yi said, but he was convinced that Lin Yi would not joke about such things. "I don't know. I didn't feel any hostility from it. It may be that the people at the surveillance base found us, but it's best not to be careless." After hearing Lin Yi's words, Rico and Reg nodded. Rico knew her position very well. She did not have strong combat capabilities, so she walked to the middle of the team obediently. Once Rico was attacked, anyone could rescue her in time to ensure Rico's safety. The surveillance base was located above Lin Yi's head, and the three of them moved forward along the created road. I don't know if Orson has any bad taste. The created road actually has no guardrails, and you can see the clouds passing by through your hand. If someone with acrophobia saw this, they would probably be scared to the point of collapsing on the ground.
"Hmm." After climbing for a while, Riko suddenly felt something strange in her body. She found that she had the symptoms of the ascending load again, but the reaction here was much lighter than in other places just now. Riko just felt a little dizzy and her calves were a little swollen. She bit her lip, endured the discomfort of her body, and continued to follow Lin Yi and Reg's footsteps closely. "The surveillance base is located on the edge of the second floor. The abyss force field here is much smaller than the center. If you can't bear it, just say it." Lin Yi glanced at Riko and did not help Riko dispel the negative state. In his opinion, bearing more ascending load can help Riko adapt to this state quickly. However, this can only be done in the shallow layer. Once you enter the fifth floor or below, the ascending load is not something Riko can bear. "Well, I know." Riko responded softly. She supported Reg's shoulders, with a trace of pain on her face. She now felt that her legs were gradually losing sensation, which was a very typical characteristic of the second-level ascending load - paralysis of the limbs. The three of them came to the door of the monitoring base step by step. Lin Yi took a look at the monitoring base and found that the area where the monitoring base was located was very large. Almost all the trees in the surrounding small area were linked together by Orson. Those thick branches intertwined with each other, linking a small activity area. "Hello, is anyone there?" Li Ke stood still and shouted towards the monitoring base. If Li Ke remembered correctly, there should be someone on duty at the monitoring base. Normally, as long as someone approaches, the people in the monitoring base will lower the elevator cage above their heads. But Lin Yi and the other two have been standing here for almost two minutes, and the monitoring base above still has no response. "Reg, can you reach over there?" Li Ke pointed to the elevator above his head on the opposite side. Reg estimated that the height was about 20 meters, and there should not be too much problem. So Reg aimed his arm at the elevator and then fired it out. He was going to go over and lower the elevator for the two of them. "Hey?" Just when Reg's arm appeared on the elevator, Reg suddenly felt someone grabbing his arm. "What's wrong?" "Someone... grabbed my arm." Reg's voice was a little nervous. He tried to pull again, but found that he couldn't pull his arm at all. "So that's it, did you get here relying on this kid?" Above the surveillance base, Orson was holding Reg's two arms tightly, staring down at the three people below. Reg's arm was struggling in Orson's hand, but compared with Orson's amazing strength, Reg's strength was really not enough. Afterwards, Orson threw Reg's arm out and pulled down the mechanism on the side. The next second, the elevator cage began to creak, and more than ten seconds later, the elevator appeared in front of the three people.
"Let's go." Lin Yi felt Orson's sight and walked into the elevator cage. Liko and Reg saw this scene and followed Lin Yi into the elevator. After entering the elevator, Lin Yi pressed the up button in the middle of the cage. The birdcage-shaped elevator slowly ascended with Lin Yi and the other two. Although the elevator's ascent speed was not fast, the ascent height was still more than ten meters. As the elevator ascended, Liko's body reaction suddenly became stronger. She was pale, hurried to the birdcage, tightly grasped the railing, and then vomited. Lin Yi now understood why the elevator was set up like this. It seems that it is to facilitate vomiting for cave explorers who have ascending loads. "Liko." "It's okay, I'll rest for a while." Liko wiped the dirt from the corner of her mouth. After several ascending loads, Liko also began to gradually adapt to the ascending load of the second floor, at least much stronger than at the beginning. (End of this chapter)
