Chapter Twenty-Nine: Escape from the Ruins
Chapter Twenty-Nine: Escape from the Ruins
There was still some distance left from the top entrance, and something suddenly flashed through the mind of the attendant, which was actually a very important matter, and he should have remembered it when the Count yelled for him and his companion to escape. But due to the suddenness of these series of situations, both of them ignored the matter.
He didn't want to get up, but the moment he realized it, he despaired.
The wizard had said that he would seal the entrance, so at the moment, the entrance at the top of the passage was closed......
As you can imagine, the attendant's footsteps slowed unconsciously, his reflexive physical strength and vision that could see in the dark suddenly left him, and the pain in his legs, stomach cramps, and the feeling of suffocation from fear prevailed.
The black serpent flew silently, tearing his head off his neck, and the inertia caused the snake to continue to leap forward, and the head of the attendant was attached to the snake's mouth until his face hit the wall to the side and stopped, and the wall imprinted his last moment of terrified twisted expression.
After more than ten seconds, his body was swallowed clean, and the black snake floated in the air like a fish swimming in the sea, turned around, turned the snake's head, and "swam" back to the depths of the passage.
............
"How many times has this teleported?" asked the gunsmith as he put down another mechanical guard and turned to Darkwater.
The giant chamber that everyone was in at the moment should have been quite close to the periphery of the ruins, and the trap here had reverted to the kind of giant insect guards that could be taken down with a single shot.
"Next time is the final teleportation. Darkwater said, his tone still the same.
"Hurry up, then ......" the gunsmith let out a white breath: "In the room just now, I tried to spit on my palm, but it was already cold when it touched my skin, and when my numb skin realized 'cold', the saliva was already frozen, and when I felt 'ice', it was already three seconds after I shook the saliva off my palm......"
"Don't worry, there's more time than I expected, and besides, you're also a power-level person, and I haven't even shown obvious signs of death, what are you nervous about?" said the advisor.
"You ought to look in the mirror and see how you look now......" The gunsmith choked the advisor with another sentence.
Darkwater has come to the final teleportation sigil: "Alright, this is the final teleportation. His words were actually a signal, a code sent to the other two members of the Cross, and only they understood what it meant. Venisha and Sueside naturally couldn't hear any problems from the content of this sentence alone.
The cyan light lit up and faded again, and the five of them opened their eyes.
After only a few seconds, a wall was opened, and hundreds of mechanical beetles flew out, and destroying this enemy was the gunsmith's forte, and he switched the bone gun to burst mode, and it took less than a minute to shoot down all the guards.
Unexpectedly, at this time, another change happened.
"Huh...... Huh...... Don't move...... Venisha breathed hard, she pressed one hand on the advisor's shoulder, looked at the other two members of the Cross, and said, "You...... Put the gun down...... Huh...... You...... Stay away from everyone......" he said as he looked at the gunsmith and the dark water.
"Why are you doing that?" the advisor asked.
The gunsmith bent down, his hands on his knees, and began to gasp for air, while Darkwater stood still. Sueside took the tablet of the "Sky Codex", took three steps and made two steps, and approached Venissa's side.
"Huh...... Huh...... Do you think everyone else is stupid? huh...... Over here...... Huh...... It's not the same room we had when we came in. Vanessa increased the strength of her hand: "Don't move either...... Don't think your abilities are hard to see with the naked eye...... You can act quietly...... Hahh......"
"There was more than one entrance, but due to the diversion to find you, we came to another entrance that was different from when we entered, and this is the one that has gone through the least number of teleportations since we found your room. "I could take a long time to explain, but I don't think you should stay any longer." His tone is always in this tone, in fact, it is very scary, there is no demeanor, there is no change in tone, you can never judge by observation whether Dark Water is lying, you can only judge by what he says.
At this moment, Darkwater's argument is reasonable, and these four humans really can't afford it.
Vanessa let go of the advisor: "Okay, it's me thinking too much. But her instincts told her that something must be wrong, so she glared at her advisor, "Don't forget a little bit...... Huh...... Your life is still in my hands at all times. ”
"Let's go! stop talking nonsense!" The gunsmith couldn't help it: "Dark water, exit exit exit!" He sped up his speech and jumped in place, the gunsmith who grew up frozen from a young age also behaved like this, which was enough to show how low the temperature was at the moment.
They were now in the outermost part of the ruins, and their senses were gradually recovering, and in the cold air, breathing became difficult, and even the effects of the ruins could not completely offset the bone-chilling cold, which was undoubtedly enough to kill ordinary people.
Except for the dark water, the remaining four people are all capable people, but it is not a problem for the capable people to stay at about minus 20 degrees in thin summer clothes.
Darkwater had already observed the texture in the room and scurried towards the exit, where there was a non-palm-shaped sigil that blended in with the other textures on the wall, and it was impossible for anyone else to know where to press.
Darkwater quickly arrived and pressed on the sigil of the exit. Soon, a square exit in the wall opened, and a second later, a vague projection created by the ruins defense system concealed the exit.
The four men had already followed Darkwater, and rushed towards the projection of the wall, one by one, through the wall, fleeing the soon-to-be-frozen ruins.
Behind the wall was a passage, but unlike the one when it came in, it was a cylindrical with irregular edges, like a hollow sausage, and there was no slope, and the crowd was moving in a horizontal direction.
Darkwater has taken out a flashlight from his body and walked in the front to lead the way. The other four followed him, and as they distanced themselves from the ruins, they gradually regained their senses.
Exhaustion and pain rolled in like a tidal wave, and at the moment, Vanessa just wanted to drink a cup of hot chocolate, soak in a hot bath, wrap herself in an electric blanket, and then sleep for twelve hours in a row. But she knew in her heart that now was the time to not let go of her in the slightest, and she would have to hold on even if she was strong and energetic. I couldn't breathe a sigh of relief until I handed over the Sky Code to the Order.
