They can't escape!
Everyone was extremely anxious, but seemed powerless. Tang Mianmian immediately joined the ranks of those pushing the door. However, no matter how hard he pushed, even using his entire body to violently hit it, the big wooden door did not budge at all.
Duan Hongzhen even used his flying knife, but his weapon that could cut through hair and slash through metal like mud was powerless against the big wooden door. On the other side, the two girls each took out their weapons. The cold girl took out a Tang sword, and the other loli girl took out an unusual-shaped umbrella. They both used their weapons to hit the window glass at the same time. It was obvious that they were very strong, and their weapons looked extraordinary, but the broken glass was as still as a mountain.
At this time, the water in the church had already reached above everyone's calves, and the water seemed to be rising faster and faster. It was likely that it would not be long before the entire church was submerged.
Lu Si'er and the little boy were already standing on the church bench. They couldn't help much. Faced with such a horrifying scene, they could only hug each other and tremble, not even daring to cry.
Xiao Tangqiu waded through the water trying to find out if there was any other way out of the church. The church was not big, and he searched around and around, but found nothing.
In the blink of an eye, the water had already reached Xiao Tangqiu's waist. His movements became increasingly difficult, and he became increasingly anxious.
Besides fear and terror, he felt even more guilty and self-blame. It was he who suggested that everyone come to the church. If they really couldn't get out, then it would all be his fault...
Duan Hongzhen and the two girls continued to work hard, but neither the door nor the window moved, and it was obvious that a completely enclosed space had been formed.
The crowd became more and more anxious, and the water flowed faster and faster.
Soon, the water was high enough to cover their heads, and they had to struggle to stay afloat. However, as the water surface got closer and closer to the ceiling, they realized that if they didn't find a way to escape, they would probably drown here today.
The oxygen in the air was getting less and less, and Xiao Tangqiu could feel that he was beginning to be short of oxygen. His brain was dizzy, his movements were slow, and the scene in front of him began to become a little hazy and blurred.
...He's probably going to die soon?
He had weathered so many storms before, but in the end he died because of his own wrong advice. This is ridiculous.
Xiao Tangqiu desperately took his last breath and shouted to Shen Yuan, "I'm sorry..."
Even at the critical moment of life and death, Shen Yuan remained calm and composed. Even though the surroundings were filled with screams of fear and crying, he remained calm and composed, as if a building was about to collapse and remained unmoved. He looked at Xiao Tangqiu, and although he didn't say anything, Xiao Tangqiu seemed to understand what he was saying.
"Wow! I'm still young! I don't want to die!" Tang Mianmian cried the loudest, but she was also the one with the most energy. "I'm not married yet, I've never been in a relationship, and I've never touched a girl's hand!"
The loli girl finally couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Tang Mianmian: "Shut up! The more you cry, the more oxygen you consume!"
Lu Si'er and the little boy, who were originally hugging each other and crying out of fear, were frightened by the loud shout and stopped crying in a daze.
At this moment, the flood had already submerged most of the church, and the water surface was only a few dozen centimeters away from the ceiling. They tried hard to float on the water, keeping their heads exposed between the water surface and the ceiling, but it was obvious that they would soon lose even this last bit of living space.
Xiao Tangqiu's vision began to blur, and his consciousness was a little unclear: "...I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Tang Mianmian was so frightened by the loli girl that she didn't dare to cry loudly. She could only sob softly: "Wuwuwu, it's already this time and you're still talking about this..."
Xiao Tangqiu could no longer hear Tang Mianmian's words and could only repeat vaguely, "I'm sorry..."
The others also gradually showed symptoms of hypoxia. Seeing that the flood was about to completely submerge them, Duan Hongzhen sighed, "It seems that there is really no other way..."
Tang Mianmian kept shaking Xiao Tangqiu, but Xiao Tangqiu was still unconscious. He asked anxiously, "Is there any other way?"
"There is no other way, we can only take a gamble..." said Duan Hongzhen.
Tang Mianmian was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean by risking everything?"
Duan Hongzhen didn't say anything else. He turned his head to look at Shen Yuan, and then looked at the other two girls. They seemed to understand each other. The next moment, the four of them suddenly dived together and swam towards the huge statue.
Tang Mianmian tried hard to grab Xiao Tangqiu and prevent him from sliding down in his unconscious state. Lu Si'er and the little boy also began to lose consciousness. They could only subconsciously grab the nearest person, so he had to drag three people by himself -
He stared nervously at the water below, and amidst the shimmering waves, he saw the four men swimming towards the giant statue, and then they attacked together to destroy the statue!
...No, to be precise, it is the three people besides Shen Yuan.
After three heavy blows, the statue remained motionless.
The three seemed helpless and turned to look at Shen Yuan. Finally, Shen Yuan seemed to be about to take action.
Tang Mianmian didn't see clearly how Shen Yuan made his move, because the next second the flood completely submerged the church. He lost his last bit of oxygen and could only frantically grab the powerless Xiao Tangqiu.
At this moment, a loud noise came from under the water!
Amidst the loud noise, Xiao Tangqiu opened his eyes in a daze. The church was completely submerged in water, and the underwater world seemed a little distorted. He tried to look down, but only saw a vague black shadow...
At a certain moment, his vision suddenly became clear, and he could see everything clearly, including the benches, murals, stained glass windows, and huge statues in the church. Shen Yuan was floating in front of the statue. Although his expression could not be seen clearly, he was obviously completely different from his previous normal state.
Shen Yuan's hair in the water had grown much longer, almost reaching his waist, floating in the water like seaweed on the seabed.
Large, mysterious black tattoos appeared on his cheeks and neck. Not only on his cheeks and neck, but also on his wrists and ankles... Xiao Tangqiu tried hard to identify them, but still couldn't recognize what the tattoo was.
And at this moment, the loud noise ended, and the huge statue shattered!
The moment the statue shattered, a huge shock wave came from under the water. Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously closed his eyes, but soon he opened his eyes again and tried to look in the direction of Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan was the person closest to the statue. Now that the statue had exploded and shattered, Shen Yuan would be the first to bear the brunt of the attack...
As expected, the fragments of the statue flew towards Shen Yuan, instantly blowing his clothes into pieces, which shocked Xiao Tangqiu. However, what he imagined did not happen. Although Shen Yuan's shirt was torn, his body did not suffer any substantial damage. It was just that the clothes were torn, revealing a large tattoo on his body.
