Chapter 531 Escape into the Pyramid
Before long, Han Shuo and his four companions returned to the ground through the torn opening.
He kept wielding his Tang sword, clearing away the horde of corpses to his left and front.
The blond man, like him, swung his baton wildly and took up a position to the right front. The two of them worked together to clear an open area that the horde of zombies could not approach.
...
"Quick! Find the entrance to the pyramids!"
The three fat men, leaning against the stone wall, were not idle either. They split into two groups and advanced forward while constantly searching for the entrance to the pyramid.
This time, the five were not too unlucky. In less than half a minute, the fat man discovered a triangular opening at a height of more than 10 meters above the ground on the body of the pyramid.
It turns out that the entrance to this pyramid is not on the ground, but above the stone wall. If he hadn't been so observant, he would have missed it.
He was overjoyed and turned around to shout.
"This way, the entrance is here!"
...
"good!"
Han Shuo and his three companions stopped fighting, threw a few bio-grenades at their feet, and quickly ran towards the fat man.
The five people quickly gathered together, and without saying a word, they jumped a few times, stepped on the protruding rocks, and swiftly arrived at the cave entrance.
"Go inside quickly!"
The silver-haired man shouted and brought up the rear for the four people.
Once everyone had entered the pyramid, he turned and brandished his lightsaber.
Swish! Swish! Swish...
Several flashes of white light appeared, and the sharp laser sword sliced off a large rock above.
"boom!"
A huge boulder fell, raising a cloud of dust!
The next instant, the entrance was blocked by a huge rock, the light disappeared, and Han Shuo and his group of five were plunged into darkness.
...
A corpse-clad figure lurking among the horde of zombies in the distance saw what was happening and quickly shouted into his communicator.
"Boss, something terrible has happened! They've escaped into the pyramid and completely sealed off the entrance!"
The tattooed man, lying under the large parasol, casually replied.
"What's the panic? Surround the entire pyramid. Do you think they can escape by burrowing underground? This is just a desperate struggle."
"Hmm... You can find some tools later and use the horde of zombies to pull the big rock out."
"Yes, boss, we understand!"
Thus, the battle between the two sides came to a truce.
...
On the other side, after everyone was plunged into darkness, Xiao Zhao quickly took out the stun gun from his backpack.
clatter!
The stun gun was turned on, the darkness was illuminated, and everyone regained their vision.
At this moment, they felt as if they were in a cave, a narrow passage leading deep into the pyramid, incredibly quiet and incredibly eerie...
Not long ago, Fatty had mentioned wanting to explore the inside of the pyramids. Although the suggestion was rejected, they ended up here by some strange twist of fate.
Now things are really messed up; I can't stop playing...
Unfortunately, the outside world is now surrounded by zombies, and the situation is extremely dire. Even the usually playful Fatty and Xiao Zhao have lost all interest in sightseeing.
...
"Let's all rest here for a bit."
Han Shuo spoke, sheathed his Tang sword, turned around, and forcefully pushed the large rock at the entrance of the cave with both hands.
Seeing that the large rock remained motionless, he felt somewhat relieved.
"This rock is very heavy, and the zombies outside cannot get through it. Even if the zombie-wearing man controls it, it will not be an easy task to move the rock in a short time."
"We are safe for now."
He spoke casually, but the other four people showed no joy whatsoever.
The operation went smoothly in the early stages, but today, before they even reached the oasis where the mysterious old man was, they were blocked by his men and trapped in a desperate situation, which has indeed dampened everyone's morale.
...
At this moment, the silver-haired man walked over, looking exhausted, and bowed deeply apologetically.
"Brother Han, Brother Pang, Brother Zhao, I'm so sorry to have put you in such a dangerous situation."
"No, Brother Silver Hair, we've known each other for a while now, we're all friends, there's no need to say such things."
Han Shuo waved his hand and offered a simple word of comfort.
"Yes, yes, we came here willingly, what does it have to do with you?"
"Yes, Brother Han and Brother Pang are right. Friends should share both good times and bad times."
Fatty and Xiao Zhao both responded with a comment.
The silver-haired man nodded gratefully and said nothing more.
He knew this was not the time for self-blame; the crisis was still ongoing, and figuring out how to escape was the most important thing right now.
...
"Strange, I still can't figure out how that old man found us."
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a bit awkward, the fat man spoke up and asked a question that had been on his mind.
Everyone was puzzled by this question.
Han Shuo thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Hmm... This is, after all, the outer perimeter of the Corpse-Clad Organization's lair, so it's not surprising that they have some special reconnaissance methods."
"We don't know much about this old man."
"That's true."
"Sigh~ If we had known that we were out in the open, we wouldn't have suffered so much from the beginning. We could have just used hang gliders to fly to that oasis and slowly waged guerrilla warfare against them."
...
After a brief discussion, the five rested and regained their strength. Han Shuo then gazed into the depths of the passage.
He took a deep breath and began to speak.
"Let's go inside and take a look. Staying in the same place isn't a good thing. We need to figure out the structure inside this pyramid so that we can adapt to different situations later."
"good!"
...
Then, the blond man volunteered to stand guard at the entrance.
If anything unusual happens outside, she can notify everyone immediately via communicator.
This eccentric little girl doesn't usually do anything productive, but she's incredibly reliable when it matters.
Whether in battle or on duty, they were extremely serious and never complained.
And so, Han Shuo, holding a stun gun, led the fat man and the others deeper into the pyramid.
...
Along the way, the group discovered that the internal structure of the pyramid was quite complex, with branching paths appearing on both sides from time to time.
To avoid getting lost, Han Shuo would leave some marks on the stone wall every time he went a certain distance deeper into the area.
Behind him, Xiao Zhao was also taking out his notebook and carefully sketching the terrain map.
...
As Han Shuo and his three companions explored deeper into the pyramid, more than an hour passed without them realizing it. As evening approached, the tattooed man's men finally found the right tools.
They tied the large rock blocking the cave entrance with iron chains, and after making sure it was tightly bound, they manipulated the horde of corpses to begin dragging it.
The moment the chains outside tightened, the blond man on guard near the cave entrance felt a tremor beneath his feet.
Then she saw that the large rock beside her had moved slightly.
The blond man's eyes instantly turned serious!
