Even if he could really escape, he would never be able to escape by stepping on the blood of his teammates who he had been with day and night.
Before he was twenty-two, he was just an ordinary person.
He was clearly a peerless genius with a natural talent for blood nourishment, but because his latent talent could not be activated, he was eliminated in the martial arts exam and ended up attending a liberal arts university.
It was not until after graduation that he was admitted to the Rift Investigation Bureau to engage in clerical work, and was discovered by Ding Pojun, the director of the Imperial Capital Investigation Bureau, who took him in as his disciple.
But Ding Pojun was busy with official duties after all, and he didn't have much time to teach him.
When he was initiated into martial arts, the group of people around him were his instructors.
As he grew and his strength improved by leaps and bounds, the group of people around him became his sparring partners.
Later, he became the captain, and this group of people naturally became his team members.
Asking them to risk their lives to pave the way for him? Min Zimo couldn't do it!
"Captain!" The team member who made the proposal had red eyes, but he still insisted.
"I said, shut up!"
Min Zimo evened out his breath again, shook his spear, and charged out of the battle formation again. His spear shot out like a dragon, instantly sweeping away a group of low-level monsters and relieving some pressure on the defense line.
"No... cough cough cough~"
At the back of the team, a team member with a thick bandage wrapped around his abdomen tried to speak weakly, but his words were interrupted by a violent cough, and the saliva he coughed out was stained with blood.
He endured the pain, took out a light red blood and qi tonic from his waist bag, unscrewed the lid, and stabbed it hard into his arm.
After a few breaths, the originally pale face slowly turned red.
He took a moment to calm his breath, his voice still weak, but with a hint of hope: "I wonder if anyone received the distress signal we sent out..."
The bracelets used by official investigators have one more crucial function than the models issued to ordinary warriors.
That is a signal for help and warning!
As long as everyone is in the same level of the rift, once someone sends a signal, the bracelets of other investigators will vibrate at a specific frequency.
This vibration can even convey some simple information.
Half an hour ago, when the team was surrounded by the abyss monster, they had already sent out a signal for help.
If no one takes over, it may take half a day or even a day before the higher-ups realize that something has happened to them.
"Reinforcements will definitely arrive!" Min Zimo said solemnly, trying to stabilize the troops' morale. "Hold on firmly, there is hope!"
Before he could finish his words, the third-level octopus monster that he had shot earlier launched an even more violent attack!
This time, its dozens of tentacles danced wildly at the same time, turning into an impenetrable black whip shadow that covered the sky and the earth!
Faced with this almost fatal blow, Min Zimo's pupils suddenly shrank and he stomped on the ground.
In an instant!
He rushed forward and rushed towards the group of monsters in an instant!
The spear seemed to come alive in his hand, transforming into a stream of blazing light, the tip of the spear even trailing a dazzling light orange flame tail.
Puff puff puff!
The few low-level abyss monsters blocking his way had no time to react before they were pierced and torn to pieces by the sharp spear light!
Taking advantage of the momentary gap in the octopus monster's defense left by its full-strength attack, Min Zimo's figure was approaching like a meteor chasing the moon!
"kill!"
With a low shout, the spear turned into a surging stream of flames, wrapped in his almost boiling blood, and pierced into the octopus monster's body!
laugh--!
The tip of the gun passed through the body!
The black dirty blood spurted out like a fountain!
"squeak--!"
The octopus monster let out a shrill howl, its huge body trembled violently, and all its tentacles instantly softened and withered as if they had lost their support.
After a successful attack, Min Zimo did not hesitate to fight. He kicked the octopus monster's slimy body hard with his toes, used the force to fly backwards, and landed back into the formation nimbly!
boom!
The octopus monster's huge body collapsed with a loud bang, and thick black gas escaped from it.
After a third-level monster was killed, the attack of the abyss monster was obviously stagnant, and the team finally got a precious chance to catch their breath.
Min Zimo's chest rose and fell slightly. He had also consumed a lot of energy from the explosive attack just now. The muscles in the arm holding the gun were trembling slightly.
But he did not rest. His deep gaze passed through the chaotic battlefield and headed towards the stairwell entrance on the other side of the atrium, diagonally opposite the shop.
"Listen to me," he said clearly, making sure every team member could hear him. "Hold on a little longer, and we'll go to the ninth floor, the Upside Down Realm!"
The team members were all stunned when they heard this, and looked surprised and confused.
"Inversion Zone? Captain...that place is much more dangerous than here! Isn't it too risky?" The team member who had previously proposed sacrificing himself hesitated.
Min Zimo quickly explained, "As you know, no matter how random the route into the rift changes, all passages will eventually lead to the 'Inversion Domain' on the ninth floor!"
"Even if reinforcements are sent from above, the only way to have the greatest hope of joining them is to go there!"
This proposal is undoubtedly bold and even crazy.
The "Inverted Domain" is on the edge of the real abyss, the rules are more chaotic, and the power increase on the abyss monsters is also stronger.
But everyone was an experienced investigator and they quickly realized that Min Zimo was right and that staying here would mean waiting for death.
Breaking out the way you came is useless. As long as you can't break free from the monsters and "break away from the battle", you won't be able to leave the rift at all. (☆This setting is very important, please pay attention☆)
Although the "Inverted Domain" is dangerous, it is the only way out at the moment.
"Captain! We listen to you!"
"Let's do it! Fight these damn things!"
The team members' fighting spirit was rekindled and they quickly reached a consensus.
Min Zimo changed the subject and added, "We can't go now."
"Assuming the call for help is successful..." He began to calculate quickly in his head, "The time it takes for the rescue team to organize forces, enter the rift, pass through the chaotic area, and finally reach the ninth floor..."
Min Zimo's eyes grew serious, and he said firmly, "Hold on for another forty minutes! After forty minutes, we'll break through and head to the Upside-Down Domain!"
"Yes!" The team members were cheered up and responded in unison. Although their voices were tired, they were full of determination.
