The images flickered on and off, appearing and disappearing, but it was certain that since entering the corridor, the total time they appeared had increased, and the frequency had increased.

Li Rui didn't know what happened to Duan Ling and the others, but judging from the results, the destination of these people was the same as his own.

"Are they also people who came for Shelei?"

"Or is it some fire demon underground?"

Thinking about it, he thought it was really possible.

Judging from the pattern of the wall of the corridor, this place was built by the Yan Jing clan, and there may be a Fire Demon King locked up inside.

"Well, I see, you need a human sacrifice!"

The more Li Rui thought about it, the more he felt reasonable.

"There is something here, which needs to be obtained through the way of soul sacrifice, and it may even be the Lava Ancestor, understood! It didn't die back then, it was buried by the Yan Jing in this place, and now someone wants to resurrect him, so he sacrificed it with a living person, because his soul was damaged, so Duan Ling and they couldn't wake up in reality. ”

Li Rui was still excited to analyze a possible truth, but suddenly it didn't feel right.

"Aren't they really gone?"

"Wait, why do I think of resurrecting something by means of human sacrifice at every turn? Because I've seen it, where have I seen it? ”

“.”

I remembered it, I remembered it all.

Normal people generally don't think of any method of human sacrifice at every turn, but Li Rui has already dealt with Zuo Qiutian too much, and he is extremely familiar with this method.

He shook his head to dispel distractions.

"No, I can see the images of them at the time, which shows that something else is going on."

Li Rui continued to walk along the road, and after an unknown amount of time, a fork in the road appeared in front of him.

He stood at the intersection and looked around, saw a sneaking image in the depths of one of the forks, and quickly followed.

Either way, they at least showed the way for themselves.

The further inward you go, the more intense the burning sensation becomes, and even the damage from the burning state becomes stronger.

Flowing lava began to appear on the road ahead, sometimes spewing out from the walls.

However, these things are not much of a threat to Li Rui, and he follows up all the way, and it is a long journey, and the front suddenly opens up.

The belly of this mountain is almost empty, and it is much more open than expected.

When you get here, you don't need to use the blue and silver lantern ring to illuminate it, there are flowing fires everywhere, and the places that can stand are just floating rocks, and if you are not careful, you will step into the air and fall into it.

In the middle of the mountain, there is a lake of magma, and there is an island in the lake.

[Hidden Mission Update: Find the Birthplace of Thunder.] ]

It could only be on an island.

Li Rui looked around, but found no living creatures, and no more images, so he could only cross the rocks floating in the magma lake and come to the isolated island in the center.

There were no burning fires on the island, only a thin smoke from the charred earth, and everything was black-brown, as if it had been burned by a fire.

At this time, he noticed that the key in the inventory was flickering, and when he took it out, he saw that the branch, which was still green after breaking away from the mother's body, was suspended in his hand, leading the way like a compass.

Li Rui hurriedly walked in that direction, and the closer he got to it, the more active the branches became, and it was obvious that the target was in front of him.

Unexpectedly, in the end, where the branches pointed, was a deep pit, two or three zhang in diameter, empty in the middle, and nothing.

[No target, hidden mission failed.] ]

“.”

Li Rui's eyes narrowed, staring at the deep pit in front of him.

It seems that he came a step too late, and Shelei was taken away.

There is no need to do much reasoning, it must have been done by the people who escorted Duan Ling Yuxin and them into the belly of the mountain.

He clutched the vajra umbrella tightly and suppressed the frustration in his heart.

"Calm down, maybe there's a way."

"There is a question that has not yet been answered, why the hell are those shadows."

Although I don't know if it has anything to do with the disappearing social mines, the suspicion at least means a turnaround, even if there is only a faint hope.

He took a few steps back, opened the Bloody Eye, and found that the space here fluctuated a lot more than outside.

There are similar fluctuations in several places on the island.

He thought for a moment and ran to the place closest to the landing position.

When he ran to a position more than ten meters away from the fluctuations, the fluctuations unfolded again, but this time the excitement was not a dynamic phantom of the characters, but a real land that was one zhang wide and narrow.

Li Rui was surprised to find that the land was not scorched and black, but a lawn growing vigorously on it.

In other words, on this barren island surrounded by lava, life that did not exist existed appeared.

Approaching the junction of the two spaces, he stretched out his left hand, reached into the transformed and vibrant space, and grabbed a handful of grass on the ground.

Pull out.

Retract.

Li Rui looked at the grass in his hand, then at the charred black ground under his feet, and raised his eyebrows.

"Two different spaces entangled?"

He leaned into the meadow space, and a new hint appeared.

[Hidden Mission: Find the place where Thunder was born.] ]

"Do you say?"

Come back.

[Hide mission failed.] ]

Stick out.

[Hidden Mission: Find the place where Thunder was born.] ]

This time, he looked up and looked around, and found that the conjecture was correct, the vibrant island belonged to another time and space, here, Shelei had not been taken away, there was no big pit in the center of the island, and instead there was a withered tree, and there were living Yu Xin and Duan Ling and others standing next to the tree, and there was a familiar face.

Brother Zuo!

There are eight life-support pods in the Medical Center of the Department of Anomalies.

According to the regulations, any secret agent who is trapped in the secret realm must maintain his vital signs for at least fifteen days in reality, and it will be extended depending on the situation.

Fifteen days is sufficient if there are witnesses confirming his death, and if there are no witnesses, or some other special circumstances, the time may last longer.

Because even if you lose consciousness, sometimes it is only because the soul is impacted, but after a period of time, there is still a chance to wake up on its own, so even if you are witnessed dying in the secret realm, you must observe according to the rules.

Duan Ling, Yu Xin and others belong to the kind that have no witnesses, because all the members have fallen, so they can't judge their condition.

According to the instructions of the superiors, the observation period of the first batch is 30 days, and the observation report must be submitted every day, and the last day is to ask the superiors whether to extend the observation period.

Because of the special situation and the high potential of the personnel, there are people on duty in the room 24 hours a day to report the situation at any time.

The person on duty today is a middle-aged woman with very old qualifications.

She is measuring the physiological indicators of all the sleepers one by one, forming the first data conclusion of today.

"It's a shame, these young people."

Seeing these promising new agents lying here motionless, her heart was sympathetic and sad.

But just as she grabbed Yu Xin's wrist and was about to measure her pulse, her whole person suddenly became stiff, and her breathing became heavier and heavier.

After no more than three seconds of shock, she immediately checked the marks on everyone's bodies one by one, and finally picked up the internal phone on the wall.

"Report to Cheng Wen, no, Commander-in-Chief Cheng, the engraving of eight people in room 1903 reappeared, all, everyone appeared."

In no more than two minutes, the news reached Cheng Wen, the commander-in-chief of the secret realm battlefield, who was organizing a meeting of the command level to select the replacement list.

After getting the news, the conference room immediately boiled.

"Is there really a miracle?"

"How could such a thing happen?"

Even these high-level leaders were surprised and puzzled by the unexpected development.

At this time, only a fat figure as a ball was silent.

Cheng Wen held back the excitement in his heart and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Kong Ji shook his head slightly, as if he was thinking fiercely, and after a while, he said solemnly: "Contact the Huangliang Branch first, as far as I know, there is a person over there who has also entered the Peach Blossom Niangniang's tomb today, it is difficult to say that this is a coincidence." ”
