157. How can a man's intuition go wrong
When Bai Ye dealt with the 4 ghouls, Rick Jones and the ghoul hunters had not yet decided the winner.
The Ghoul Hunter is an elite-level monster, and the combat power of one can be equivalent to ten ordinary ghouls.
Its claws are longer and sharper, and its wide jaws also provide stronger bite strength, and every bite should not be underestimated.
Of course, Rick Jones is not simple, although he looks clumsy as a bear, but his feet are unusually nimble.
He dodged the attacks of ghoul hunters again and again, and immediately returned the color with a mountaineering pickaxe, and the sharp tip of the pickaxe poked bloody holes in the opponent's body.
The two sides killed each other, and for a while no one could help the other, and the battle began to develop in the direction of 'comparing who has a bigger bladder'.
Originally, this deadlock should have been broken by Bai Ye, but just as Bai Ye was busy mending the knives of the 4 ghouls, suddenly, the entire subway tunnel trembled for no reason.
Boom Boom Boom β
The concussion sound was accompanied by a strong tremor, and the space began to shake from side to side, and the top of the tunnel fell with powder, and the ground bounced up and down.
Whewβ
A vague howl came from the depths of the tunnel, and there was a thick texture from the ancient wilderness, and just listening to the sound could subconsciously judge that the body of the voice owner should be very large.
"What's going on?"
Joey held on to the wall to get his feet on.
"Was there an earthquake?"
Rick Jones and the Ghoul Hunter also immediately pulled out of their positions, each lowering their weight to prevent themselves from falling in the concussion.
The howling quickly passed, and the concussion ceased for a moment.
The ghoul hunter raised his head and let out a restless roar, suddenly leaving his opponent behind, regardless of the life or death of the four younger brothers, turned his head and hurried towards the depths of the tunnel.
Seeing this, Bai Ye hurriedly summoned the embroidery girl from the beads and followed.
At this moment, the howl came again, and along with the howl, there was a tremor that was far more violent than before.
The three members of the expedition team were unable to maintain their center of gravity and had to crouch on the ground to avoid falling.
More than just dust had fallen from the top of the tunnel, some loose rocks had fallen like hailstones.
"Let's go! It's going to collapse here! β
Rick Jones yelled at Bai Ye and the others, then turned around to take the body of the dead Grylls with him.
Unfortunately, a boulder on the top of the tunnel fell before he did, covering Grylls' corpse, completely cutting off Rick's intentions.
"Damn it!"
He had no choice, took one last look at his partner's 'grave', gritted his teeth, turned around and followed Bai Ye and Joey, and ran in the direction where the ghoul hunter had left.
β¦β¦
Luckily, she was able to keep up with the ghoul. β
At this time, the tunnel was chaotic, the ground was shaky and dusty, making it difficult to distinguish the route.
And, as the embroidery girl continues to deepen, there are more than a dozen 'entrances and exits' in front of the tunnel.
There should be only one of them that is correct. β
If you come here in a hurry, you will definitely have to delay some time to crack the correct route...... Don't expect NPCs like Rick Jones to help, they have titles like Legendary Explorers, but they'll definitely give you the task of solving the level for any reason when they get here.
Now that there is a female ghost following the ghoul hunter in front, Bai Ye has directly skipped this puzzle-solving level.
But......
The total summoning time of a game is only 10 minutes, and she has summoned twice before, and she has consumed about 7 minutes.
Now that the female ghost followed the ghoul into one of the 'entrances', Bai Ye had clearly felt the hint that Xiuniang had passed back, similar to 'energy exhaustion'.
The next scene must be the sewer area mentioned in the letter, right?' β
Bai Ye gave Xiu Niang a return instruction, and the female ghost immediately launched her soul transfer technique, and instantly teleported back to Bai Ye, turning into a blue light diamond and returning to the bead.
'There are no changes to the main quest, does it require players to visit all the locations mentioned in Thurber's letter?' β
That doesn't seem too far from the end of the game......
The three of them ran out of the subway tunnel on the verge of collapse without danger, and there were more than a dozen 'entrances and exits' in front of them.
"Follow me."
Bai Ye didn't hesitate for a moment, and kept walking directly into the 'correct entrance' that the embroidery lady had discovered.
After entering from the entrance, the light here is brighter than the tunnel outside, and you can see that above the head are thick sewage pipes, although the ground is flat, but the sewage is flowing everywhere, the air is filled with an unpleasant rancid smell, and some cockroaches and rats are crawling on the road in a panic.
The tremors in the sewer area were more severe than those outside, and many of the sewer pipes were smashed by falling stones, and water began to spray out of the gaps.
And the howl of the desolate ancient beast can be heard more clearly here.
"Are we going in the direction that voice came from?"
Joey ran behind Bai Ye and asked puzzledly, "Are you sure it's the right direction to go?" β
Bai Ye didn't look back and said, "It's all already in...... Is it too late for you to get out now? β
"Huh?! So you are blind to choose this path? β
"Don't worry, my instincts are always accurate."
ββ¦β¦ Why can't I feel even more relieved when I hear you say that? β
Joey was speechless at Bai Ye's explanation, but fortunately, he had run for more than 100 meters along the way, and there was no fork in the road ahead.
'Maybe...... Is this really the right route? β
But the good times didn't last long, just as the three of them crossed an intersection, Bai Ye, who was running in front, suddenly stopped, quickly leaned his back against the wall, and stretched out his hand to stop Joey and Rick Jones.
Joey and Rick hurriedly imitated Bai Ye's appearance, leaned their backs against the wall, and stood in a row with Bai Ye.
Immediately after, there was a dense and noisy chirping sound, and dozens of ghouls ran out of the fork in the road one after another.
Led by the two ghoul hunters at the front, they turned the corner and headed in the direction the expedition was heading like a disciplined army.
"Look, I'm going in the right direction."
Bai Ye turned his head sideways and whispered to Joey: "My intuition also tells me that the sculpture we are looking for should be in the hands of these monsters, and it is right in front of the place where the cry appears......"
Joey pouted noncommittally and rolled her eyes at him.
"We're going to have to be more careful, and it's important to get out of here alive."
Rick Jones reminds in the back: "The search for the sculpture must be based on the premise that there is no danger!" β
He had already lost four of his companions on this expedition, and he didn't want to see anything go wrong with Joey and Bai Ye......
After the group of ghouls had all passed, the three of them set off again.
They hung far behind the ghoul army, made a few turns in the middle, and after about a few hundred meters, they finally got out of the sewer area.
Suddenly there was a circular plaza built in a cave.
