Blood-red light shone in from the window and fell on Lin Sheng's feet.
He held the Wooden Shield in one hand and the Great Sword in the other, standing in front of the security door in the living room.
He planned to go out.
After staying in this dream home for so long, Lin Sheng finally could not stand the snail's speed of cultivation.
He needed more actual combat to absorb more souls!
There was also this dream home. What exactly was there in the strange and unknown environment outside?
He was very curious.
This time, he was really determined to open the door and go out to explore the surroundings.
Pa.
Lin Sheng leaned the Great Sword against the wall, emptied his hand, grabbed the door handle, and gently turned it.
Click.
The door opened.
Lin Sheng quickly let go and held the Great Sword again.
He gently pushed open the security door with his foot.
Outside the door was a dark stairwell.
There was no light in the stairwell, only the red light from his own house.
In the stairwell, in front of the security door opposite, there was a person standing.
It was a tall and thin man in white clothes.
He was standing in front of the security door with his back facing Lin Sheng, and seemed to be taking out the key to open the door.
But what made Lin Sheng feel strange was that the man's body did not move at all.
From the moment he saw the man, the man had been in the same posture.
He was like a statue, standing in front of the opposite door, motionless.
Squeak …
When the security door of Lin Sheng's house was opened to a certain degree, it would make a faint sound of metal rubbing.
This time was no exception. The sound of rubbing seemed to have attracted the attention of the man in white opposite.
His hand slightly let go of the door handle, and his arms drooped, giving a feeling that he would turn around at any time.
Lin Sheng licked his lips and put the Wooden Shield in front of him. He held the Great Sword tightly, ready to use it at any time.
Huff … huff … huff … huff …
He heard the man in front of him panting. That kind of panting was like a person who suddenly encountered something extremely frightening. His whole body was sweating, and his breathing was extremely nervous.
Click.
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound.
The security door opposite opened.
The man slowly walked in through the opened door, and then the security door closed. A crisp cracking sound could be heard.
From beginning to end, he did not face Lin Sheng.
Lin Sheng frowned. He lifted his shield and walked out slowly.
He planned to explore the surroundings. Let's see if there's anything strange around here.
Bam!
Suddenly, the anti-theft door on the opposite side opened.
Two people in white clothes, a man and a woman, were staring at him with pale faces and smiling.
These two people were Auntie Chen and her husband who lived in his house.
Lin Sheng was stunned.
In the blink of an eye, he pulled the door open and slammed it shut. Then, the Wooden Shield was firmly pressed against the security door.
Boom!!!
In an instant, there were two loud bangs.
The anti-theft door that had just been closed suddenly twisted.
Lin Sheng was knocked a few steps back by a huge force and almost lost his footing.
"Saint Blood Ignition!!" His heart was raging, and with a low roar, his body swelled up a bit. He raised his double-edged greatsword and stabbed at the door.
At this moment, the anti-theft door was also smashed by the huge impact from outside.
Bam!!!
The flying iron door crashed into the charging Lin Sheng.
The tip of the greatsword pierced straight into the iron door, making an ear-piercing noise.
Lin Sheng felt as if his sword had pierced through the iron door and hit something. That thing was extremely hard, like a rock or a wooden stake.
The huge impact was accompanied by a fierce recoil.
Even though Lin Sheng's hand was holding the hilt tightly, he still felt a pain in his hand. His whole body was sent flying by the huge impact.
Bam!
His back hit the wall, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The thing behind the door did not seem to feel good either. With a clang, it dropped the iron door and turned into two white shadows, flashed through the stairwell, and disappeared into the anti-theft door on the opposite side.
Click.
The anti-theft door on the opposite side slowly closed and locked.
"Hey …" Lin Sheng straightened his body, leaning on his sword, his face showing a hint of bravery.
"Does this count as a lose-lose situation?" He squeezed out a smile, forced a few steps forward, and stood firm.
Then, he activated the Saint Power in his body and began to heal from the impact.
This was the convenience of mastering Saint Power. He could use it at any time, anywhere, to speed up the recovery of his body's injuries.
After recovering a little, Lin Sheng was no longer afraid.
Carrying his Shieldsword, he strode into the stairwell.
There was no light in the dark stairwell.
There were only two oddly dark stairwells, one above and one below.
"Let's go down and take a look." While his Saint Blood was burning, Lin Sheng sped up and walked down the stairs.
But after a few steps, he felt that something was wrong.
This stairwell seemed to be a little too long …
Normally, the stairs in his house should have 13 steps, but he had already walked up to 20 steps, and it was still not over.
Moreover …
Lin Sheng tilted his head, and carefully looked to his left and right.
Using the red light from his house, he quickly discovered the problem.
There were no handrails on either side of the stairs!
In the darkness, there was only a flight of stairs that slowly extended downwards.
To his left and right was a boundless, bottomless darkness.
From afar, Lin Sheng seemed to be standing in a vast dark space, and the stairs under his feet were the only solid ground in this space …
"This damned place …!?" Lin Sheng quickly retreated back to his house's door. Cautiously, he looked at the house opposite him, and then turned his gaze to the stairwell upstairs.
Without thinking too much, he picked up his Shieldsword and began to walk up the stairs.
He went up one floor after another.
The doors of the two houses on each floor were tightly shut.
But what surprised Lin Sheng was that the higher he went, the older the anti-theft doors became.
The higher the doors, the more patterns there seemed to be engravings on them. They were very ancient patterns.
But because it was too dark, he could not see clearly what they were.
He went all the way up four floors.
Lin Sheng stopped and looked down.
The red light from his house's door was still faintly discernible. This calmed him down a little.
He had just been ambushed there, but just because there was light, he inexplicably felt more at ease there than anywhere else.
"Human phototaxis …" Lin Sheng chuckled inwardly. He simply activated the Saint power in his body, and a circle of light appeared on the edge of the Wooden Shield.
This was simply infusing Saint power on the edge of the Wooden Shield. It did not consume much energy, and it could be used as a light source for a long time.
With the white light, the surroundings suddenly became much clearer.
In the stairwell, the walls were covered with moss.
The mottled walls were peeling off here and there, revealing the light-colored walls inside.
The light in the middle was not a modern incandescent lamp, but a retro oil lamp in a black glass box.
The anti-theft doors on both sides were not normal doors either.
They were all covered with dense and thick rust stains. It seemed that these two anti-theft doors had not been opened for many years.
Lin Sheng thought about it and looked to the left.
The anti-theft door on the left was obviously more rusty than the other side.
Lin Sheng raised his Wooden Shield and was about to use it to open the door.
Suddenly …
Click.
The door in front of him opened a gap!
