Taking control

“Beep, the floor the Host is about to enter has a large amount of supplies and a small number of threatening creatures. After entering, the Host needs to find the exit to leave. Once found, you can choose to continue exploring or return to the Elevator. Rewards will be issued based on the extent of exploration.

Note: No items can be carried on this floor.”

“Beep, mission triggered: Usurp the Host. Please kill two or more entities. Reward: Rationality attribute permanently increased by 5 points.

Mission item: M249 with no need to change bullets, which will be recovered after the floor ends.”

Ding dong! The Elevator is descending, please hold on tight.

Soon, the Elevator stopped, and after the door opened, Lin Feng stepped into the space in front of him without hesitation.

Buzz!

After Lin Feng left, the Elevator disappeared from here, and Lin Feng’s hands sank as an M249 light machine gun appeared in his arms.

“Wow, this is exciting.”

Lin Feng caressed the gun body, then pulled the bolt, and an incredibly pleasant sound came, making Lin Feng feel much more at ease.

The System giving him this weapon meant that firearms could kill the monsters here.

So what was he afraid of?

Holding the light machine gun, Lin Feng looked around. The surroundings consisted of concrete walls and floors, exposed rebar, and a thin mist floating on the ground.

White fluorescent lights were neatly arranged on the ceiling, and Lin Feng immediately saw several wooden crates placed in the distance.

“This looks like the place I left last time.”

Lin Feng mumbled to himself, then walked towards the crates.

Looting treasure chests was one of his greatest pleasures.

“This broken place must be leaking, there are so many puddles.”

Lin Feng complained while avoiding the puddles of various sizes on the ground.

“Let me see what good stuff is inside.”

Lin Feng walked to the wooden crates and kicked them.

Seeing that no unusual sounds came from inside, he reached out and opened the wooden crate.

The first wooden crate contained a few cans of food, a few bottles of water, and nothing else.

After a moment of thought, Lin Feng still took a can of food and water, after all, he hadn't brought any food in.

It was always good to be prepared.

There were three crates in total here. The second crate contained three bottles of water and a backpack. The water bottles had no labels, and when opened, a unique but faint scent of vanilla and rosewater wafted into Lin Feng’s nose.

Could this be a drink?

Lin Feng was genuinely hesitant to drink it. What if something happened?

However, he still put these three unknown drinks into his backpack and also packed all the remaining cans and water inside.

After pushing open the third crate, Lin Feng was a little disappointed because it was empty.

However, since the System said there were a large number of supplies here, Lin Feng was still quite expectant.

With his backpack on, Lin Feng continued walking forward in one direction.

This place was not like that yellow room; everything was so monotonous, and Lin Feng also did not encounter the situation of returning to the starting point.

After walking for about ten minutes, Lin Feng found an Elevator.

It seemed to be in normal working order. Lin Feng pressed the Elevator door open and walked straight inside.

This Elevator did not have buttons for selecting floors, only buttons for closing the door, opening the door, and starting.

After starting, the old motor made a buzzing sound.

The Elevator ascended very slowly, taking more than twenty seconds to slowly stop.

Leaving the Elevator, Lin Feng was still faced with concrete walls and floors.

It was as if he hadn't left, and yet he had.

“So where exactly is the exit?”

Even if there was no exit, something to entertain him would be nice.

In this broken place, he could hear an echo just by breathing.

In a daze, a black shadow flashed past Lin Feng’s eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Feng quickly chased after it.

However, the black shadow disappeared directly around a corner.

“It sure runs fast.”

Thump, thump, thump!!

Just then, a sound like a heartbeat came, and Lin Feng suddenly felt a pang in his heart. He looked up and saw a bizarre smiling face staring at him.

The smiling face glowed with a disturbing red light.

Lin Feng swallowed and immediately raised the Big Pineapple in his hand.

Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat----

Tat-tat-tat-tat----

Concrete chunks from the ceiling were blasted down by Lin Feng, hitting his face.

And that bizarre smiling face had also vanished after a burst of gunfire.

“Heh heh, what trash.”

Lin Feng sneered inwardly and put down the Big Pineapple.

With such a strong presence just now, Lin Feng had thought he encountered some great horror, but it turned out to be a small fry.

Suddenly, a yellow note fell from the air.

Opening the note, a line of text was written inside.

“Walking along any extended hallway will usually lead you to the next area. Finding and entering a hole in the wall will lead you to a dangerous place = (”

It was that symbol again.

Lin Feng remembered that the last time he successfully left was because of the words left by this person.

So this time, Lin Feng still chose to trust him.

A hallway, well, that was easy enough to find.

An hour later.

Lin Feng found several crates and obtained some more fragrant unknown drinks, a nail gun, and three pieces of paper torn from a notebook.

Lin Feng couldn't quite understand the content on them, but it seemed to be related to the creatures inhabiting this space.

“The artist lives in my heart, the artist dies in my heart.”

“Won’t you stay for the party? = )”

“They are everywhere....”

This was the content of the notes.

......

Finally, two hours later, Lin Feng found a very long hallway.

According to the information on that note, he only needed to keep walking down this hallway to leave this area.

“Is that... a human?”

Lin Feng looked at the humanoid creature ahead with some doubt, but still raised his gun and walked over.

For some reason, the humanoid creature suddenly burst into laughter upon seeing Lin Feng, while also emitting some strange sounds.

“Hahahahaha.”

“Goo goo goo goo goo....”

“You... hello!?”

“Beep beep beep beep beep......”

.........

Feeling a bit eerie, Lin Feng thought for a moment and then pulled the trigger.

After a burst of gunfire, the humanoid creature collapsed to the ground.

Lin Feng quickly approached and then fired a few more shots at the corpse.

By its appearance, it was a foreigner, but the blood flowing out was translucent.

“As expected, it’s not human.”

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, his vision went black, and a sense of weightlessness followed. After a few minutes, this feeling disappeared.

When he regained consciousness, he was already in a pipe room, with the Elevator steadily parked in front of him.

However, before Lin Feng could react, a sudden change occurred. The entire space began to vibrate, and as the vibrations grew stronger and stronger, Lin Feng reluctantly had to give up further exploration and ran back into the Elevator.
