I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

The corridor on the 20th floor was quiet and dark, with no one around. Soon, a ray of light flashed from the stairs, and Qin Zhong leaned out to look. When he saw the current situation on the 20th floor, he couldn't help but frown.

This was originally the laboratory of Wanhai Technology, but at this moment, it seemed as if it had experienced the ravages of a level 10 typhoon, and the entire space suffered unimaginable damage.

Originally, there were laboratories on both sides of the corridor, but now it is in a mess. The originally smooth walls are now covered with cracks, as if they are scars of time, silently telling the cruelty of the disaster.

The equipment in the laboratory, those instruments that once operated with great precision, now seemed to be torn apart by a huge force, and twisted metal and broken glass were scattered all over the floor.

A heavy silence filled the air, with only the occasional sound of wind echoing in the empty corridor. The chandelier on the ceiling was swaying, and some fallen fragments flickered coldly in the dim light.

Looking at everything in front of him, even if Qin Zhong had not witnessed the battle, he could probably imagine the cruelty of it. The entire floor was destroyed like this. It must be said that this destructive power was really amazing and somewhat inhuman.

"Big, big brother, you saw it too. I didn't lie. It's really dangerous to go up any further. Let's go!"

Liu Shan hid behind Qin Zhong and looked at the ruins of the 20th floor. He seemed to be thinking of the previous battle. His face turned pale and he kept persuading Qin Zhong, hoping that he would change his mind and leave here quickly.

Wang Chunfen and Xiao An were also peeking out from behind. Everyone's face was pale and they kept looking around, fearing that some monster would suddenly rush out of the darkness.

Originally, Wang Chunfen wanted Xiao An to stay downstairs, but she refused to agree and finally followed them upstairs.

Qin Zhong ignored Liu Shan's words and quickly searched the ruins on the 20th floor. Although the five-pointed star should be gone, he still wanted to verify it.

After all, since you are here, it always feels a bit of a waste if you don’t do something.

Ten minutes later, Qin Zhong regretfully dropped a hard drive in his hand on the ground. Everything here was almost destroyed. After checking for a long time, he found no valuable items.

"Let's go to the 21st floor!"

Qin Zhong didn't waste any more time talking on the 20th floor and led the way directly towards the stairs. Although Liu Shan had always emphasized that the floors above the 18th were very dangerous, they came up from the 16th floor but found nothing, as if these floors were empty.

The unlit stairwell was small and dark, as if countless monsters were hiding in it. Qin Zhong took the lead, turned on his headlamp, and went up all the way, soon arriving at the fire door on the 21st floor.

Thankfully, the twenty-first floor was not damaged like the twentieth, but unfortunately, the fire doors were sealed.

The fire door here seemed to have been reinstalled. There was a card reader on the wall with numbers 0-9 on it. Qin Zhong walked forward and pulled the fire door, but it didn't move at all.

He turned to look at Wang Chunfen, his eyes revealing doubt. Wang Chunfen quickly stepped forward to explain, "Wanhai Technology is engaged in pharmaceutical research and development, and confidentiality measures have always been very strict. Starting from the 20th floor, every stairwell fire door has a password set, and the password is different for each floor. Only the staff on that floor know it..."

Having said this, she looked at Qin Zhong with a trembling voice: "I, I only have twenty-four floors..."

Qin Zhong frowned and looked at Wang Chunfen with a cold tone: "Does that mean there's no point in keeping you?"

"no no!"

Wang Chunfen shook her head desperately and cried, "We usually go to each floor by elevator, so I really don't know the code for the stairwell fire door, but I know the structure of each floor very well!"

With a slight sigh in his heart, Qin Zhong was actually just trying to scare her. He was not a murderer, so why would he kill people indiscriminately? He just felt that this woman was not very honest and seemed to have not explained many things clearly.

……

"Brother, since we can't get in, why don't we go back!"

Liu Shan was relieved to see that the fire door on the 21st floor was still intact and that he couldn't get in because he lacked the password. He quickly suggested going back again.

"boom!"

Qin Zhong was about to say something when he suddenly heard a sound coming from inside the fire door. It seemed that something fell to the ground. Although the sound was not loud, it was still very shocking in the silent environment.

Qin Zhong quickly approached the fire door, put his ear against it, and listened quietly to the sounds inside.

"Wow... Wow..."

Sure enough, soon there was a sound of something dragging on the ground from behind the fire door.

"Is there anyone alive inside?"

This was an idea that popped up in Qin Zhong's mind, but he immediately denied it, thinking it was unlikely.

"Cuckoo..."

At this moment, Qin Zhong heard a strange sound beside him. He glanced sideways and saw that Liu Shan seemed to be frightened by the sound behind the fire door, and his teeth were chattering.

Qin Zhong retracted his contemptuous gaze and thought for a moment. He realized that without the password, he would have no way to get through the fire door. It seemed that he had no choice but to use violence to break the door. Thinking of this, he shouted coldly: "Stand back!"

Liu Shan and others quickly retreated to the platform below. Qin Zhong picked up his Miao Dao. Since the end of the world, his strength has been increasing. The Miao Dao that used to fit him very well now feels less and less powerful.

But there is no more suitable weapon now, and this is the weapon that is most convenient for him to use, so he just uses it.

Qin Zhong didn't hesitate and stabbed the fire door with his sword. It must be said that this Miao Dao was really good, with first-class material. With one slash, the fire door was pierced with a "puff" sound.

In no time, Qin Zhong used his Miao Dao to cut a large hole in the fire door, revealing the dark corridor behind the door.

Qin Zhong shone his flashlight through the big hole and saw a dark corridor inside. The darkness was so thick that there was no light at all. The light from the flashlight seemed to be swallowed up by the darkness in an instant.

As soon as Qin Zhong started to chisel at the door, the strange noises behind it disappeared. Now he kept looking around with a flashlight, but he didn't see anything unusual.

But Qin Zhong did not let his guard down, because a strong smell of blood behind the door kept lingering in his nose, reminding him that it seemed not safe inside.

"Come up, let's go in!"

Although he knew it might be dangerous inside, Qin Zhong did not hesitate. He whispered to Liu Shan, Wang Chunfen, and Xiao An, then lowered his head and passed through the black hole, entering the corridor on the 21st floor.

Soon, at Qin Zhong's urging, several people came in one after another. As soon as they entered the 21st floor, Liu Shan, Wang Chunfen and the other two looked nervous, fearing that there might be some monster here.

Xiao An held Wang Chunfen's arm tightly with an uneasy look on his face, and lowered his head as if he would see something terrible if he looked up.

Compared to these people, Qin Zhong was calm and didn't care about the darkness here at all. Seeing that everyone had gathered, he turned off the flashlight and turned on the headlamp. In an instant, the snow-white light quickly shone far away.

I saw that the white walls and ground on both sides of the corridor were covered with dried black blood, which was sticky and disgusting. There were several corpses lying in the corridor.

For a moment, everyone felt as if they had arrived at the eighteenth level of hell, and Liu Shan, Wang Chunfen and the other two were so scared that they could hardly stand.

As the headlight shone into the distance, Qin Zhong saw a person in a white coat, who was not sure whether he was a man or a woman, standing in the corridor not far away with his back to the crowd, his body swaying slightly, as if he was about to fall down at any moment.
