Chapter 42: No Solution

"Came back to ......"

"Why are you wandering again?"

A white palm waved in front of his eyes.

Bai Yu pressed his eyebrows, and he shook his head: "The use of more power is just an extra burden on the spirit...... So, where did you just talk about? ”

"We are preparing to transfer the wounded ......"

Through Su Ruoli's expression, Bai Yu learned that he entered the dungeon this time and landed directly at the second anchor point.

This anchor point is the moment when you kill two second-order transcendents after drinking the Shadow Spider Venom.

…… It's good.

Originally, there was nothing to adjust to this point, and the time spent was acceptable.

He groaned slightly.

Next, it's a race against time to save people, and continue to search for the shortest route available, while also searching the entire lair to find the lost shadow.

"It's only four and a half hours...... No, there are only four hours left. ”

Bai Yu said to Su Ruoli: "I killed the logistics in advance, so we will definitely show the stuff in the round of regular reports that are carried out every four hours, and at most half an hour, the executor of the organization will arrive." ”

"The Executor ......"

"Third-order transcendental, we don't have even the slightest chance of winning at this stage."

"Then it's time to race against the clock, right?"

"yes, time waits for no one." Bai Yu said, "Ready? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well! Su Ruoli clenched his fists: "The goal is to survive all of them!" ”

The corners of Bai Yu's mouth opened slightly, this time he didn't feel any trouble.

Anyway, it has been repeated so many times, and it is not unacceptable to raise the pursuit a little bit and turn it into a harmless ending in which all members survive.

He turned and walked into the depths of the lair.

Four hours later......

Bai Yu walked out of the nest, carrying a student wrapped into a rice dumpling on his shoulder, and after putting the student down, he saw a conspicuous red petal.

"How many?"

"Counting Liu Neng in your hand, there are ...... in total" Su Ruoli replied: "Twenty-nine." ”

Bai Yu muttered to himself: "There are still eight missing." ”

Turning around, silently aiming the muzzle of the gun at the temple, and pulling the trigger.

……

"Come back to your senses, why are you distracted again?"

Hearing this, Bai Yu shook his head: "It's okay." ”

Again, again.

He exhaled and repeated the necessary explanation to Su Ruoli, then turned around and walked towards the Shadow Spider Cave.

It was the third time I had gone deeper, and the distance I had measured by my footsteps began to become familiar and clear, gradually forming a workable map in my mind.

As he walked through a fork in the road, he turned his head sideways and looked down.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ There's a shortcut here. ”

"Well, there's still a lot of room for improvement."

Four hours passed.

Bai Yu walked out of the lair, and this time brought out two people.

"So there are thirty-one people in all."

Su Ruoli took over the two students that Bai Yu had put down, and clenched his fists to cheer him on.

The more students were rescued, the more pronounced her smile became, and although it was inevitable that it would be stained with blood and stains, the sparkling joy could not hide it.

"Good thing you found that route!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ A better route exists. ”

Bai Yu said: "It's a pity that I just found out that this time I couldn't catch up." ”

The rose petals have fallen, and the time has come again.

He walked inside the lair, and a gunshot rang out.

……

"Now there are thirty-three of them!"

"The route is closer! And the general distance can be handed over to other students to carry! ”

"It's a huge time saver!"

Su Ruoli jumped up happily, high-fived Bai Yu, and rushed up to hug Ruan Qingxue, who had just sent people back.

Immersed in the joy of saving people, she didn't realize how much time had passed.

"Four ...... are missing"

Bai Yu lifted his foot and stepped on a falling rose petal.

……

The caving area, the Shadow World Plaza, is quiet.

Bai Yu didn't hear the footsteps and running sounds before.

He smelled a strong smell of blood.

Walking near the camp, he saw the Rose Lady sitting on a collapsed rock, her legs folded, and a soft sword that glowed blue in her hand.

"Looks like I'm late."

"Earlier and later doesn't make a difference to the results, it's just a matter of taking a few more breaths of air."

The Rose Maiden said flatly: "Those little lambs are already obedient, and it will be your turn to ...... next."

As she was talking, she suddenly saw a rather unpleasant scene: "You...... What to laugh at? ”

Bai Yu smiled: "It's nothing, I just feel very fulfilling." ”

He lowered the student on his shoulder: "This is the thirty-fifth. ”

Moved his sore arm: "Finally, there are only two people left." ”

The Rose Maiden didn't understand at all: "What else do you say about the dying man?" You should feel unwilling, because your false judgment has cost you your own life. ”

Bai Yu coughed lightly: "So, since I am a dying person, can you tell me what your organization is?" ”

The Rose Maiden said indifferently: "When you go to the King of Yama, you can ask questions slowly." ”

"I see...... Bai Yu mocked happily, "you are also a 'lackey' who is subject to people in a sense." ”

The Rose Girl's gaze froze, and Bai Yu's head fell to the ground on the spot.

Knock β€”β€”!

……

"How did you find this route!"

"It's so perfect, the size of the shadow spider on this route can't be entered at all, there is this road, you can avoid the shadow spider route for almost the whole time!"

"I just confirmed."

"Thirty-six people...... I've rescued them all, and not a single one is missing! ”

Su Ruoli's hands trembled, she looked at the last person on Bai Yu's shoulder, counted it over and over again, and after confirming that it was correct, she rushed up, held the young man's palm tightly, shook it vigorously, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red.

"Thank you, thank you......"

"Thank you for saving everyone, saving everyone."

Most of the students were still unable to move, but those who could were already laughing.

Some of the people's palms were covered with blood during the transportation process, and some students were injured and laughed and grinned when they pulled the wounds.

The girls hugged each other, no one wailed, only someone silently wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.

A rare sense of accomplishment rose in Bai Yu's heart.

It was not easy to bring all thirty-six people out of the lair.

Bai Yu didn't bask in this sense of accomplishment for too long, because he clearly knew that escaping from the shadow spider's lair was the first step.

"There is still a ...... missing"

He rubbed his eyebrows: "I didn't find the shadow of Bai Yu." ”

If you can't find a shadow, you can't know how to get out of here.

There is no way to leave, which means that if you take the thirty-six people out, you can only hold hands and sing songs and wait for death.

Bai Yu thought to himself that the shadow should be somewhere in the nest, but it was difficult to find it without a location.

At present, all the students have no relevant clues on hand, so do they want to find the Year of the Monkey?

And will the shadow stay in place at all, and what is its manifestation?

I don't know, if it will shrink to the size of a coin, if the shadow blends directly into the background?

Bai Yu has checked the relevant information.

There have been cases of recovery from aphage in history, although there are not many, but there are more than a thousand.

People with aphroxia will fall into a coma and cannot move, and the shadows are retrieved by other people, but there has never been a case of the body going to find the shadow.

However, according to the reporter's investigation, there is a certain sense between the shadow and the body, and this induction will form a mutual guidance effect, and a hair can be used as a finger needle.

The hair of white elm is there, but unfortunately it does not move.

Time...... How much longer?

He was thinking about checking the time.

The petals have fallen.

At this time, it was less than three minutes since he walked out of the lair.

Death is always timely.

But death was always one step behind him.

……

Sitting up from the bed, Bai Yu walked to the kitchen, turned on the faucet, and took a sip of filtered water.

It's five o'clock in the morning.

There are currently sixty Destiny Points left.

After 30 trials and errors, I still couldn't find the perfect way to clear the customs.

"I can't make ends meet." He laughed to himself.

"But sixty more times, it should be enough..."

"Before that, I need to get some sleep."

……

After a few hours of short rest, it was already dawn.

Lack of fatigue and energy is filled by fatigue agents.

Proceed to reset the copy.

However...... The situation has completely fallen into meaningless repetition.

Destiny points gradually change from sixty to fifty, forty, thirty......

By the time dawn turned from dawn to evening, Bai Yu had repeated it thirty-nine times.

No shadow found.

It's the same result every time.

He tried all kinds of ways to get over the obstacles, and even gave up looking for the shadow halfway and started looking for the exit, but naturally he didn't find it.

Here is a cage, a tightened pocket, which can get in and can't get out.

When the fiery clouds of the evening cast a bright red color on the room, Bai Yu lay on the floor of the living room, almost completely out of strength.

The failures accumulated by a huge number of times have completely swept away his original self-confidence and calmness.

The more you repeat it, the more you realize that even if you have done your best at this stage, there are still obstacles that cannot be overcome.

When you face a fire and you can't find a drop of water or a grain of sand within a hundred miles, the outcome is predestined from the start.

Reality forces people to admit its cruelty.

"This copy, with my current ability......"

"Fundamentally, there is no solution."
