I Slaughtered Through the Dungeon Worlds with My Cheats

"Tick-tock! Tick-tock! Tick-tock!"

There, water had also started to drip.

Following that, Mu Rufeng stood still in his original spot.

Although it was somewhat boring, there was no other choice, as this was the safest method.

Soon, nearly two hours had passed.

At that time, the door opened again.

Several dog-headed creatures about half a person tall walked in and began to patrol among the crowd.

After making a round, these dog-headed creatures gathered at the spot where the leak was.

Then, they all left.

Less than ten minutes later, the Centaur girl came back in.

She checked the leaking spot, then called over a spider robot to repair it.

Muttering to herself, she said, "Why is there a leak here too? How strange, could it be that the pipes are made from substandard materials?"

After the Centaur girl left, Mu Rufeng finally could move freely.

He immediately stretched his limbs, then quickly changed into his clothes and equipment.

He now understood that there was no surveillance at all here.

Only those dog-headed creatures would come to patrol, and he estimated they did it every two hours.

As long as he returned within two hours, there would be no problem.

Mu Rufeng immediately headed toward the door.

Shortly after, Mu Rufeng reached the door and made a round along the perimeter, only to find that the place was completely sealed off.

He wanted to go out, which was easy for him, but sneaking out unnoticed was simply unrealistic.

Although these clones lacked consciousness and couldn't react to external stimuli, they still had normal human organs and needed oxygen for breathing.

Thus, this place couldn't possibly be an enclosed space.

Mu Rufeng looked up at the pipes above.

Eventually, at the top of the building, he found several ventilation shafts.

Clearly, it was these vents that provided enough oxygen for the clones.

Mu Rufeng immediately went to one of the vents and with a gentle leap, jumped right up and grabbed the edge.

Then, Mu Rufeng opened the wire mesh and directly climbed into the ventilation shaft.

After climbing in, a strong wind hit him, which was the incoming air.

Immediately, Mu Rufeng restored the wire mesh.

He then proceeded to crawl inside the ventilation duct, and after a while, encountered a fork.

Calculating the distance, he should have already left his original location.

Mu Rufeng immediately headed to the left.

Unfortunately, it was a dead end with no way forward and a wire mesh at the end looking downwards.

Through the wire mesh, Mu Rufeng saw that below were also all clones—only, unlike his, these were all women.

Mu Rufeng carefully inspected to see if any of the clones were movable, similar to a Contractor like himself.

Unfortunately, despite staring for a full ten minutes, Mu Rufeng saw no movement from any clone, nor were there any vacant spots.

"Are there only clones here, no Contractors?" murmured Mu Rufeng.

The instance information had mentioned that there were supposed to be fifteen participants.

However, it wasn't surprising given that the factory was huge and the buildings were likely scattered.

Of course, it's also possible that not every Contractor who entered the instance was disguised as a clone.

Mu Rufeng immediately turned around and crawled back the way he had come.

He quickly arrived at the fork and took another path.

Before long, Mu Rufeng encountered another wire mesh.

Looking down, it was also densely packed with clones.

What concerned Mu Rufeng was that inside, there was one person moving.

Mu Rufeng realized that this person must definitely be a Contractor.

Mu Rufeng stealthily glanced at the person's face then quickly left the area.

Although they were Contractors in the same instance, it was best to avoid contact if possible, as there were many who could betray you; Shen Yu was a prime example.

Mu Rufeng immediately took out a bandage and wrapped his entire body, leaving only his eyes exposed, and then continued forward.

He crawled very carefully, making no sound whatsoever.

In this way, Mu Rufeng continually advanced within the ventilation shaft.

From time to time, he came across forks, but Mu Rufeng always chose to go straight, avoiding side paths.

After more than ten minutes, Mu Rufeng arrived at the end and immediately climbed out of the shaft.

He emerged on top of a building.

Mu Rufeng carefully surveyed the rooftop.

The rooftop wasn't small but, to Mu Rufeng's surprise, he found that the building seemed to be about five stories high above ground.

Yet, he clearly remembered climbing a distance of over thirty meters upward.

Thus, the warehouse for storing clones was underground.

Mu Rufeng immediately went to the edge of the rooftop and looked outward.

This building was not the only one; counting carefully, there were at least twenty such buildings.

Moreover, there was a great distance between each building.

In the distance, there was thick fog, clearly marking the boundary of the factory.

Just as Mu Rufeng was considering whether to check out another building, suddenly some noise came from inside the duct.

Seeing this, Mu Rufeng immediately hid behind another ventilation pipe.

It was very dark all around, with no lights, so Mu Rufeng hiding here didn't have to worry about being discovered.
