Chapter 164 Trap

As the crowd continued to go deeper, the ancient and gloomy atmosphere became thicker and thicker, and the air was filled with the smell of decay that had not yet completely dissipated.

The traces left by the power of time here became more and more obvious.

The rooms were built of huge stones one by one.

It can be imagined that in the distant era, this underground palace must have been very glorious and lively.

A large number of ancient murals were engraved on the heavy boulders, but they had long been blurred. Even people with eyesight like Shan Gu could hardly see clearly what was painted on them.

The structure of this underground palace was very complicated. Even if they had obtained some information in advance, it would take a long time to walk to the entrance to the second floor in one breath.

Fortunately, the field troops of the city guards had cleaned up the place well, and almost most places had lighting equipment.

But the deeper you go, the dimmer the light becomes, and the gloomy atmosphere in the air seems to weaken even the light.

"Fortunately, this light is relatively stable. If it were a torch with swaying light, the atmosphere would be even better." Shan Gu muttered softly as he walked.

"Can you shut up for a while?" Ji Caiyi glared at Shan Gu.

Si Yin was timid to begin with, and after hearing Shan Gu's words, she looked even more terrified.

Although Li Min was walking at the back, she was also nervous.

I probably didn't expect to encounter such a scene on her first outing.

The training places everyone imagines should be those with ample light, suitable terrain, and some monsters lying there waiting for them to take the initiative to fight...

That's a game, not reality.

"Don't worry, someone has walked here." Liu Zhiyuan walked in front and said in a steady voice.

"Yes, you don't have to be afraid, I'm just talking casually. In front of us, at least six or seven groups of people have come in. Even if there are ghosts, scare them first." Shan Gu tried to make up for it.

Ghost your sister!

"Shut up." Ji Caiyi glared at him.

According to the map information they had obtained before, although several people spent a little time, they still found the entrance to the second floor quickly.

Although there may be good things on any floor, the first floor must have the lowest chance.

The second floor is more than ten times larger than the first floor!

Even with a map, everyone walked very slowly.

And here, they saw traces of battle.

Spiders as big as millstones, black and gray in color, were hacked to death there.

Green ants as big as basketballs, with a sweet smell on their bodies, are probably quite toxic.

Bai Muye was more interested in these things. He took some blood from the spiders and extracted some formic acid from the ants.

Even Ji Caiyi grinned and watched Bai Muye squatting there to operate.

Couldn't help but say: "These things... are useful?"

Bai Muye nodded and said seriously: "Most things in nature are useful. Some of them I can see their uses at a glance, while some others need to be tested before they can be known."

As he said that, he sealed the two test tubes and put them in his big backpack.

At this moment, Shan Gu in front of him shot an arrow with a whoosh.

"Squeak!"

A piercing scream suddenly sounded, and then everyone's eyes went dark in an instant.

A huge figure suddenly rushed over.

Clang!

Liu Zhiyuan unsheathed the Mad Dragon Sword, bringing a streak of light, and slashed at the black shadow.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Shan Gu shot three more arrows.

Crack!

Liu Zhiyuan slashed the black shadow with a sword. Although he did not activate the Wind and Thunder Slash, the sharpness of the Mad Dragon Sword itself almost split the black shadow in half.

Shan Gu shot four arrows in front and behind, two into the eyes of this thing, and two into the heart.

Perfect.

"Ugh!"

Several girls behind him almost retched at the same time.

This was a gray-haired mouse about the size of a calf, almost split in half, with blood all over the floor. The strong smell of blood was particularly irritating.

"The curse power in the blood is so strong!" Bai Muye sniffed it hard and said.

"Xiaobai, you are a talisman master, not a lich!" Ji Caiyi covered her mouth and said palely.

Bai Muye took out a relatively large test tube, walked towards the big rat, and said: "This is the professional field of pharmacists. Don't look at their blood. The power of the talismans made will make you very happy."

"I'm not happy." Ji Caiyi rolled her eyes.

Next, everyone began to encounter various underground creatures.

Even if several groups of people had cleaned up here before, it was useless. Many places in this underground palace were very dilapidated, and some underground creatures could appear from anywhere at any time.

So when everyone was about to reach the entrance to the third floor, they had to change their formation.

Bai Muye and Liu Zhiyuan were at the front, Ji Caiyi and Shan Gu were the last, leaving the middle to Si Yin and Li Min.

Because behind them, some inexplicable creatures could appear at any time.

Although the number is small, it is not something that Li Min can handle alone.

They stayed on the second floor for quite a while, but found nothing.

However, everyone was not disappointed. After the city guards’ field troops cleaned up, some treasures that were easy to find had been taken out.

It was impossible to leave them for later people to take.

At the entrance from the second floor to the third floor, everyone saw people for the first time.

Dead people.

Si Yin was so scared that he hid behind Ji Caiyi, revealing half of his face and carefully observing.

The dead man was a young man in his early thirties, with a livid face, a stiff body, a pair of eyes wide open, and a slightly open mouth.

Liu Zhiyuan and Bai Muye looked at each other.

"Poison."

The two said in unison.

"Everyone, be careful." Liu Zhiyuan said.

Everyone's mood became a little heavy.

No matter how much they emphasized before, saying that this is reality, not a game, the feeling of knowing the truth but not the reason is still quite strong.

In fact, everyone is like this.

After all, they hadn't seen the real cruelty at that time.

Until they saw the dead.

That feeling of: This is reality, became extremely strong.

Even if you feel pain, even severe pain, when you die in the game, you will eventually come back to life.

The corpse will disappear like in the game.

But it won't happen here.

The map of the third floor is even bigger!

If everyone wants to walk through the third floor, it will be impossible to complete it without a few days.

So some people call this place the underground city.

Shan Gu said as he walked: "What do you think, in ancient times, what kind of place was this? What kind of force would build such a huge underground palace here?"

Bai Muye raised his head, glanced at the corridor above his head that was more than ten meters high, and said: "Maybe it's the giants."

"I heard that the giants were a real race. Their remains have been unearthed in some places, and the tallest one is seven or eight meters high." Shan Gu said.

"Do you think there are still living giants today?" Li Min asked in a low voice.

"It's hard to say. Anyway, we humans have migrated to this place for countless years. If there is any, we would have discovered it long ago." Shan Gu said.

Liu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Not necessarily. There are so many people in Feixian Star, but the area that can actually be controlled by humans is still very, very small. Apart from those main cities, how many places are safe? How many unknown areas have not been explored? Let's not talk about anything else. Just say how close we are to Baihua City? But we didn't find this place until today..."

Just then, there was a faint sound of fighting in front of us, and then the sound became clearer.

"Someone is running in our direction!" Shan Gu immediately entered the combat state.

Liu Zhiyuan glanced around and whispered: "Go to that room!"

Everyone quickly followed Liu Zhiyuan and went into a room on both sides of the corridor.

The door of the room was gone long ago. There was about 40 or 50 square meters inside, empty and nothing.

Everyone stuck to the wall of the corridor, holding their breath and not making any sound.

A heavy sound of footsteps came.

At the same time, someone roared: "They are afraid of fire, Lao Wu, use your fire attribute skills to fight!"

Another voice came from the other side: "The consumption is too great, the spiritual power is almost exhausted!"

"Do you still care about this at this time? Don't die before the spiritual power is exhausted!"

Boom!

Bang!

Clang!

Various sounds continued to come.

The shrill screams of some underground creatures were also heard.

Several friends looked at each other.

Ji Caiyi looked at Liu Zhiyuan.

Liu Zhiyuan shook his head slightly.

Ji Caiyi looked at Shan Gu beside him.

Shan Gu was also shaking his head.

I don't know what the situation is. If I go out rashly, who knows what I will encounter?

What if it's a trap?

Although the possibility is small, it's better to be cautious.

After all, they are strangers.

"Ah!" A scream came from not far away.

Ji Caiyi closed her eyes slightly and took a deep breath.

Liu Zhiyuan grabbed her wrist and mouthed, "Don't be impulsive!"

"Ah!" Another scream.

This time the sound came from next to them!

In other words, the opponent's battle has come to them.

Ji Caiyi clenched her hands tightly, and her body was trembling.

"Aohou!"

After a powerful beast roar, there was another panic.

"Old Five, how are you?"

"It's okay... I won't die."

"We can't stay here, retreat quickly!"

"Go!"

A series of footsteps desperately ran towards the way they came.

From their angle, they couldn't see what was happening outside.

After a while, the outside was quiet again.

Shan Gu said in a very low voice: "I'll go out and take a look."

Snap!

Bai Muye grabbed him and shook his head slightly at him.

Shan Gu was slightly startled.

Suddenly!

Bai Muye suddenly slapped out a talisman.

No one saw when Bai Muye took out the talisman, and no one knew why Bai Muye took out the talisman.

Until they saw the face of the person leaning over the door!

Snap!

The control talisman suddenly exploded on the person's face.

Can't move, can't speak!

Liu Zhiyuan's reaction was only a little slower than Bai Muye's, and he rushed up and pulled the man in.

The next moment, the Crazy Dragon Sword in his hand was across the man's throat.

Snap!

Bai Muye didn't hesitate at all, and the second... third... fourth control talisman kept hitting the man.

At this time, a burst of cursing suddenly came from outside.

"Old Five?"

"Damn, Old Five, what's wrong with you?"

"No, Old Five has been tricked!"

As they were talking, a group of people blocked the door on this side.

Ji Caiyi held two Dark Moon Blades in her hands and looked at the people at the door coldly.

She finally realized that there was no fighting outside!

Everything was just a trap!

Why is this happening?

She couldn't understand this at all.

Even if everyone didn't know each other, wasn't the purpose of coming to this underground palace to experience and find treasures?

Okay, there might be only a few people who came here to experience, but can't everyone live in peace?

Why do you have to be so calculating and calculating others?

Thinking about it makes me scared. If she heard the screams outside just now and couldn't help but run out to help, she might have fallen into the hands of others now.

There are about seven or eight people in this team outside.

They were all men, and their average age was not young. The oldest looked to be in his forties, and the youngest should be the fifth one who was controlled by them. He looked to be in his early thirties.

The first reaction of those people when they saw Xiaobai and his group was that they were all stunned.

They probably didn't expect to meet a group of child soldiers in such a place.

Then their eyes fell on the three girls Ji Caiyi, Si Yin and Li Min, and their eyes seemed a little presumptuous.

They looked at several people unscrupulously.

Then, a man in his early forties said in a low and cold voice: "Let him go."

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Ji Caiyi asked coldly.

"I said, let him go..."

Before the word "he" fell, the middle-aged man had already taken action!

He was actually an assassin too!

The dagger in his hand was made of unknown material, and suddenly a particularly dazzling light shone.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the light.

His target was Liu Zhiyuan who was controlling the young man.

Whoosh!

Snap!

Clang!

The movements of the three people here were not much slower than that of the middle-aged man.

Shan Gu shot an arrow instantly.

But it was knocked away by the dagger in the middle-aged man's hand.

Ji Caiyi rushed forward and stabbed at an incredibly fast speed, but was blocked by his other dagger.

Only Xiaobai's talisman exploded directly on his face.

There was really no way to dodge this.

He was controlled.

Ji Caiyi put two knives on his throat.

The control talisman made in Xiahou's house before only took more than one second and less than two seconds.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a long time, and the two daggers in his hands were thrown to the ground with a clang, and then slowly raised his hands.

"Don't get me wrong, it was an accidental discharge in the wild, we have no ill intentions..."

Bang!

Bai Muye kicked the middle-aged man in the stomach fiercely.

At the moment when the middle-aged man was about to react, another control talisman exploded on his face.

"Fuck!"

The remaining people at the door roared and rushed over.

Bai Muye flicked his hand, and five or six sword talismans flew out.

Bang, bang, bang!

He beat all those people out.

The sword talisman dissipated, and the group of people were horrified!

"Talisman Master!"

No one could have imagined that this incredibly handsome boy was actually a talisman master!

"Let's talk it over, let's talk it over, hehe, everyone is here to make money, there's no need to kill each other like this."

Another middle-aged man in the other crowd hated this handsome boy in his heart, but he was smiling on his face.

Bai Muye didn't say anything and kicked the controlled middle-aged man in the face.

The control talisman never stopped.

Puff!

The middle-aged man spurted out a mouthful of blood, with two teeth in it. Because he couldn't speak, he could only look at Bai Muye viciously.

"What are you still standing there for? Tie these two people up and lock them with spiritual power. If anyone struggles, just kill them." Bai Muye took a deep breath and said slowly.

Even Liu Zhiyuan was a little confused.

Although he could guess that the other party was deliberately plotting against them, he still felt that since there were no serious consequences, there was no need to do this, right?

Before going to Liming, Bai Muye might not have done this.

After all, he was just a young man with little experience.

But the trip to Liming City made him feel too much malice from this world!

In fact, whether it was Xia Houming or Zhao Lu, they were not good people. They were all ruthless.

This was because they didn't fall into their hands, but they used the handle to catch them.

If they really fell into their hands, without the ability to check and balance their strength, and without the handle to threaten them, it would be unknown whether he could come back alive from Liming.

Ji Caiyi said nothing, and directly took out a spiritual power lock, and with a click, locked the hands of the young man named Xiaowu behind his back.

Liu Zhiyuan also took out a spiritual power lock and locked the middle-aged man who was tightly controlled by Bai Muye.

The few people who were just forced back by Bai Muye blocked the door again, with fierce faces and murderous aura, staring at them coldly.

Shan Gu frowned, his face was a little pale, Si Yin and Li Min were also nervous.

After all, they were a group of young people, who had never experienced such things, and didn't know how to solve them.

Bai Muye looked at the middle-aged man and smiled: "Do you want to talk?"

The middle-aged man didn't say anything, but just stared at him.

"Don't look at me like that, you are unwilling, right?" Bai Muye looked at him and said, "You didn't expect to fall into the hands of us kids?"

"Don't be complacent." The middle-aged man had a cold face and said in a low voice, but his mouth was a little leaky.

"Let them go." A young man in his thirties among the people blocking the door said, "We can negotiate."

Bai Muye glanced at Liu Zhiyuan.

Liu Zhiyuan said, "It's okay to let them go, you guys get out!"

"Dream on!"

"Don't talk nonsense, talk about reality!"

"Little bastards, don't think you can be arrogant just because you caught two of us."

Bai Muye looked at them and said, "Then catch them all..."

As he spoke, the talisman in his hand had already been thrown out.

There was a panic at the door, and everyone retreated frantically.

They had just seen how terrible this kid's talisman was.

Control system!

This kind of talisman is too cruel.

Once you get stuck, you can't move or speak.

Who knew that the talismans Bai Muye threw out were not control talismans, but... sword talismans!

Bang, bang, bang...!

A series of loud noises, the sword talisman chopped at those people.

Forced them all back.

Afterwards, the sword talisman dissipated, but Bai Muye, Liu Zhiyuan and Shan Gu had already rushed out.

Ji Caiyi, Si Yin and Li Min then rushed out.

Pah pah pah!

Li Min threw three talismans at Bai Muye in a row.

Mental power replenishment!

It seems that he has finally recovered a little and knows how to play a supporting role.

Bai Muye can clearly feel that his mental power is recovering.

The moment he rushed out, he threw out a large number of talismans as if they were free.

At the same time, three talismans were shot at him.

Mental power replenishment!

This kind of battle cannot be sloppy at all.

If there is a slight gap, it is possible to be caught by the enemy.

Bang bang bang!

These talismans are extremely clever. Bai Muye's ability to control the talismans is too strong. Although his mental power is in a sealed state, his ability to control the talismans is far beyond his realm in reality.

Five control talismans exploded on five people respectively.

Shan Gu shot five arrows at the other side at this time.

If they don't take action at this time, it's not that they are inexperienced, but that they have a problem with their brains!

The other team is coming for them!

A conflict has already occurred, can they still expect to make peace with the other side?

Puff puff puff...

Five arrows were shot at the arms or thighs of these five people.

A series of screams came immediately.

"Stop it!" The middle-aged man who was locked by the spiritual power finally couldn't help but shouted loudly.

"Keep fighting until they have no ability to resist." Bai Muye said.
