At this moment, passengers were seen standing on the stones of two of the four broken bridges. Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that their feet were covered with several disgusting insects. These insects love anything hot, and upon contact with the hot stones, they immediately absorbed all the heat from the stones.

"Use blood."

Mo Shuwan turned to look at Zhou Quansheng, who was still moving slowly without making any movement. She gritted her teeth and suddenly pressed her hand against the wound she had sustained while fighting the monster.

The blood slid onto the ground and was immediately absorbed by one of the insects. Mo Shuwan tentatively reached out again, but unexpectedly, this time she directly grabbed the tongue of the same insect, making her fingers stiffen slightly with disgust.

Zhou Quansheng lay half-reclined on the ground, watching with interest as Mo Shuwan struggled with the insects. After she pulled out a few insects to arm her feet, he whispered, "I didn't argue with you, and I even told you crucial information to save you time. Shouldn't you repay me?"

Having already stood up, Mo Shuwan turned to look at Zhou Quansheng, her gaze lingering for a few seconds on the huge bloody hole in his stomach. "If I have the chance, I'll bring you a few more leaves."

Zhou Quansheng then smiled with satisfaction.

Lin Guaiji was getting closer and closer to her, and Mo Shuwan dared not waste any more time. She quickly stepped onto the stone, but as soon as she stood on it, a wave of heat suddenly hit her. Mo Shuwan, who was not prepared for this, was almost thrown into the molten lava below.

She gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Guaiji and the others who were calm on the other side, and couldn't help but curse in her mind.

What did I do to deserve this? Why is it that only my side is facing increased difficulty?

"hiss!"

Just as Mo Shuwan was internally screaming, a gasp suddenly came from the four broken bridges above, and two passengers who were close to the stone station were frozen into ice sculptures.

They were actually trying to catch the bugs on the ground, but when they turned their heads, they found that the heat on the stone in front of them had completely disappeared. They felt that there was no need to catch the bugs anymore, so they just stepped on it.

Who would have thought... the stone lost its heat, but the terrifying cold instantly froze the two unfortunate souls into ice sculptures.

Su Xuan, who was closest to the two ice sculptures, sneered, "Idiot." After cursing, he kicked the ice sculpture blocking his way into the lava below.

Surprisingly, when Su Xuan tried to walk up after clearing away the ice sculpture blocking his way, he was blocked by an invisible force. His expression changed, and he was about to try again when he found that he couldn't move his foot.

Looking down, he saw that half of the insects that had been used as foot covers had melted back into the ground, firmly adhering to his feet.

Other passengers who wanted to move around immediately noticed the anomaly. Everyone's feet were firmly trapped by the insects. What was even more terrifying was that these insects were extremely tough. No matter how hard they tried, the insects were unharmed and instead used their sharp teeth to bite them, taking a piece of flesh with each bite.

Only Zhou Quansheng, who hadn't tried to catch any insects from beginning to end, escaped unscathed. Hearing the curses from those guys on the broken bridge, he felt a bit strange; now there were only four people competing for first place.

Strangely, these four people were the captains of the four teams involved. They seemed normal enough, but why did the others get stuck on the broken bridge at this crucial moment? Why did they only get stuck after the four of them left? Besides, he didn't think those guys on the broken bridge would let them get out unharmed.

But they walked onto the stone unharmed...

The thought of everyone being inexplicably sent here made Zhou Quansheng's brows furrow even more. This competition seemed like a deliberate scheme in the game, and this idea was fully realized when the bow appeared before him.

'Stop them from reaching the finish line, and you will receive a special reward.'

On the broken bridge, Liu Dongcheng's eyes darkened as he looked at the bow that appeared at his feet.

A passenger picked up the bow from the ground, tossed it in his hand, and asked in confusion, "There's only a bow and no arrows?"

"There may not be any need for arrows at all."

The group studied the bows in their hands for a moment, then looked down at Mo Shuwan and the other three on the stone. Time passed by, and no passenger was the first to see them until they saw another line of black text.

'If you do not stop them, you will be considered to have abstained.'

Just this one line of text, followed by a countdown. The passengers here are all experienced. Seeing the countdown, they know that if they don't take action, it will be absolutely no good for them.

Moreover...

What kind of relationship do those four guys have with them? Why aren't they making a move? Maybe if they take this opportunity to kill them, they can inherit the captain's position.

After a moment of silence, Liu Dongcheng bent down and picked up the bow in front of him. He tentatively pulled the bowstring, and a white arrow shot out. However, because he used very little force, the arrow only flew a short distance before suddenly disappearing.

Lin Guaiji, who was leading the way, suddenly paused, turned his head to look at the arrows that passed by him, narrowed his eyes, ignored them, and continued to walk towards the next stone.

Lin Guai was confident enough to ignore the arrows, but the other three were not. It was already difficult to maintain their balance on the small rocks, and now they had to dodge these arrows that had no discernible pattern. Moreover, the closer they got to the lava below, the stronger the feeling of being melted alive became.

Mo Shuwan, who had just stepped off seven or eight rocks, squatted down, panting heavily. She turned around and grabbed the rocks behind her to maintain her balance. The cold air from her palms almost made her subconsciously pull her hands back, but fortunately she reacted at the critical moment and did not actually let go, causing her to lose her balance and fall.

She endured the discomfort, switched hands to grip the stone for balance, and pressed her hand, which had been frozen numb, onto the head of one of the insects. Only when she felt the cold gradually disappearing did she breathe a sigh of relief.

At least there's a solution, although it's a bit complicated...

Liu Dongcheng, who was trapped by insects on the broken bridge, looked at the four people who were struggling to walk towards the lava, then frowned at the monsters standing on the lava. He pondered for a moment, then raised his bow and aimed at the monsters.

The arrow immediately flew towards one of the monsters. Mo Shuwan and Qin Liu, whose faces were growing paler, suddenly turned their heads to look in the direction from which the arrow came. However, since they were on the ground and the passengers were on the ground, they could not see where the arrow had come from.

Mo Shuwan immediately turned back to look at the monster hugging the sapling. Seeing that the arrow had not harmed it, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Not daring to linger any longer, she endured the discomfort in her body and quickened her pace to walk down.

Qin Liu, on the other side, reacted similarly and immediately sped up as well.

"Do you think that guy will die if he falls?"

One of the passengers in 204 snorted, "He's not really invulnerable." With that, he pointed his bow at Lin Guaiji and abruptly released the bowstring.
