Just then, a thick green poisonous fog suddenly billowed out from a corner of the treasure room, rapidly spreading towards them. Wherever the fog reached, it corroded small pits into the stones and soil on the ground, making a "sizzling" sound.
The second-in-command cried out in terror, "Oh no! This is poisonous fog! If we inhale it, we'll surely die!" His face quickly turned ashen.
Tang Yue frowned. She wasn't worried about the current situation, but where did this fog come from? Could it be that the pirate leader hadn't told them something else? She felt that this poisonous fog was very important.
Suddenly, she remembered. She took out a small jade bottle from her storage space, which contained the antidote pills she had previously refined.
Tang Yue distributed the pills to Gu Yanxi and the second-in-command, saying, "Take these pills; they can resist the corrosive effects of the poisonous fog." After the three of them took the pills, Tang Yue took a deep breath, then abruptly removed her spiritual energy shield and simultaneously used "Wind Blade Technique" to deflect the hidden weapons aimed at them.
The instant the hidden weapon was deflected, Tang Yue flashed forward like lightning, rushing towards the corner shrouded in poisonous mist. Her target was a mysterious device there, which she guessed was likely the control center of the mechanism.
At the same time, she also needs to collect the fog here and study it carefully when she gets back, because the Japanese methods are too harmful.
Tang Yue carefully observed the device and discovered that it was covered with complex numbers and patterns. She tried to decipher the meaning of these patterns in her mind.
However, she had never seen these patterns before, and with time running out, she didn't have much time to study them carefully. Tang Yue didn't want to waste any more effort, so she simply grabbed the central mechanism with her bare hands, gently pried it open, and a miracle happened.
The runes on the device began to flash, and the projectiles aimed at them and the billowing poisonous mist gradually ceased. Then, the stone door sealing the cave entrance slowly rose, letting in the light from outside.
Tang Yue...
What a foolish move! It started strong but ended weakly. Thinking of that burly pirate captain, could it be that he simply couldn't remember the password? And then, his cleverness backfired?
Tang Yue shook her head and turned back to Gu Yanxi and the second-in-command. At this moment, the second-in-command was so frightened by the dangerous scene just now that he collapsed to the ground, his face as pale as paper.
Tang Yue didn't want to delve into whether the pirate leader had wronged him or he had taken himself too seriously.
Anyway, the matter has been resolved.
Gu Yanxi tried to turn around, but Tang Yue grabbed his arm.
