On the "second level" of the rift, in the dim light, a team is running quickly.
Suddenly, Gu Jinzhi, who was originally at the back of the team, suddenly turned and accelerated. His figure instantly came to the right side of the crowd, and the pseudo-divine weapon "Jinghong Sword" on his waist was unsheathed!
boom--!
The blazing blade light burst out, and daylight descended in an instant.
The domineering aura that could burn everything rushed straight to an inconspicuous shadow corner nearby.
Under the reflection of the knife, everyone could see clearly.
There, a pitch-black octopus monster curled up into a ball, with several tentacles quietly raised, aiming directly at Xue Ling in the middle of the team!
Phew!
The scalding blade cut through the tentacle "ball" without hindrance, splitting the monster's core in half.
The smell of burning filled the air, and the monster didn't even have time to roar. The dozens of tentacles that were curled together scattered, revealing the two charred halves of its core, and black air dissipated in wisps.
Only then did the rest of the team recover from their shock.
Captain Zhou Shi's pupils suddenly shrank, and beads of sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead.
He didn't even notice the lurking abyss monster!
If Gu Jinzhi hadn't reacted quickly, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Xue Ling's face turned pale and his legs felt weak.
He turned his head stiffly and looked at the charred monster on the ground that was split in half, his heart beating wildly.
At this time, Zhou Shi's face looked extremely ugly.
Before coming in, they received a notice from above that a third-order abyss monster had appeared in the "shallow" area.
He originally thought that his temporary team of eleven people were all third-level warriors, including strong third-level warriors like him and Gu Jinzhi.
With their strength, they can run rampant in C-level rifts.
However, the degree of danger was obviously far beyond their expectations.
We just came in and we almost lost some staff!
"Everyone, be alert! Maintain battle formation and take turns to provide cover while advancing!" Zhou Shi suppressed the fear in his heart and gave the order sternly.
The team continued to move forward, the atmosphere became more solemn than before, and the speed slowed down.
After walking for a while, Xue Ling hesitated several times, but finally moved to Gu Jinzhi's side and whispered in a dry voice: "Gu...Mr. Gu...just now...thank you."
If it weren't for Gu Jinzhi, even if he was lucky enough not to die, he would have been seriously injured and had to leave the field.
Thinking back on the slight dissatisfaction and provocations I had felt towards Gu Jinzhi before, it seemed ridiculous and my face was burning.
Gu Jinzhi didn't look away and didn't pause for a moment, as if he hadn't heard what he said at all.
The lines of his cold profile were tense, and his whole body exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away.
Xue Ling was disappointed and retreated awkwardly, but he did not dare to complain at all.
The life-saving grace cannot be offset by a mere word of thanks.
Two minutes later, everyone passed through a corridor with obvious signs of a fight.
A large amount of broken human tissue and bones were scattered on the ground, and large areas of blood were splattered on the wall, which was shocking.
Seeing this situation, almost everyone couldn't help but curse.
"Shut up!" Zhou Shi suddenly spoke, pretending to listen.
Then, his expression became even uglier.
Almost at the same time, at the end of the corridor, a three-headed octopus monster crawled out from the corner.
Behind the group, four more appeared from their hiding places and blocked their retreat.
"damn it!"
“Why are there so many!”
Zhou Shi ordered with a dark face: "Prepare for battle!"
All team members spontaneously formed a circle, using two sword and shield warriors as cover, and quickly got into the situation.
Zhou Shi looked at Gu Jinzhi, who was still wandering outside the formation, and after a moment's deliberation, he said, "Mr. Gu, you are the strongest. How about you roam around and provide support?"
Gu Jinzhi nodded solemnly, staring at the octopus monster that was gradually surrounding him, but an indescribable feeling of anxiety rose in his heart.
Jiang Xue......
Every second she delays here puts her in more danger!
His hand gripping the hilt of the "Jinghong" sword tightened unconsciously, and his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force.
Even before the knife was unsheathed, a fiery and violent aura had already begun brewing around him.
-----------------
Rift, "Fifth Layer".
The darkness spread silently and the colors almost faded away.
The air was filled with a pungent smell of dust and decay, much stronger than the floors above.
Li Wei's figure landed silently on the atrium railing.
She wandered around this floor for a while.
There is no trace of other rescue warriors here.
Those who rushed in in the first wave only advanced to the fourth floor at most.
She thought back, from the time she killed the first octopus monster until now, she had personally rescued more than thirty warriors in total.
At the same time, countless abyss monsters were killed.
If it weren't for the "little blue bottle" of abyss essence, she would have been exhausted long ago.
Glancing at the panel, [Abyss Essence: 2127]
Although the harvest was gratifying, Li Wei's body could no longer bear the strain.
Every effort, every stretch of muscle, reveals weakness.
The Qi and blood were no longer flowing freely in the meridians. Instead, it felt like hot sand was scraping through them, causing a burning pain.
This feeling of overdraft cannot be compensated by the "little blue bottle".
I don’t know if, in her current state, she can still rescue the “big shot” of the Investigation Bureau when all other rescue forces have failed.
However, along the way, Li Wei discovered an unexpected surprise.
Not long ago, she was rescuing a warrior from the Investigation Bureau on the fourth floor.
As soon as she approached within 30 meters of the other person, a black light flew out from the man and penetrated into Li Wei's eyebrows.
