But there is one thing Xu Zhi can be sure of.
Once the [Cup] sleeping deep underground wakes up, it will definitely be [Name].
She had to let the little alien eat it as soon as possible before the other party achieved [Name]. This way, the level of the little alien should be able to be improved a lot at once. Even if it could not reach the level of [Name], it could at least reach the third or fourth level of immortality, right?
The way back would definitely be faster than the way here. If they pushed themselves a little further, they could go deeper for about half a day, but Xu Zhi decided to return now.
One reason is that everyone else in the team is exhausted. Some of them have become slightly dazed, and some tempting voices appear in their ears. Their minds and bodies have reached their limits. Although they are still awake, they are already in a very dangerous situation.
Secondly, Xu Zhi herself felt that she could not continue because she no longer wanted to leave here.
This was a very dangerous thought. It came so naturally, just like the natural feeling of "The sun is nice today, let's bask in the sun for a while". She couldn't even tell whether it was a "temptation" or a thought from her heart.
But no matter what, she couldn't let this idea grow. She could feel the attraction of the Deep Lost Land to herself. It was very strange. She didn't even feel too "strongly attracted". But she was very curious about the Deep Lost Land. She just felt that if she had the chance, she had to go and see it.
It wasn't even a very strong thought, but it kept flashing in her mind, which made Xu Zhi feel very bad.
It's time to leave here, otherwise, she is not sure if she will be willing to leave after a while.
"Alright."
Everyone nodded, feeling an indescribable complexity in their hearts. Although they felt somewhat relieved about leaving, a strong reluctance surged in their hearts.
Are you really leaving? Why don't you stay a little longer?
In just a few days, he has undergone a complete transformation compared to before. The improvement in strength is so obvious. The air here contains more and purer extraordinary energy than the outside world. With every breath, he can feel the energy pouring in.
The extraordinary energy growing in the body, the fighting skills honed between life and death and the "new knowledge" gained through fighting, the extraordinary resistance and mental strength that are constantly enhanced after resisting temptation every moment, these gains are not so easy to obtain in the outside world.
Do you really want to leave now?
The more exhausted the body and mind are, the stronger the feeling of reluctance is. Xu Zhi knew at a glance that it was not good. In fact, even she was very tired at this moment. You know, she has more responsibilities than other teammates. As a commander, her energy consumption is the greatest.
But her mental strength was far stronger than that of her teammates combined, so she consumed the most energy, but her current condition was still the best. Looking at the confused eyes of her teammates except Chu Xiaoyue, Xu Zhi didn't even want to keep smiling. She walked up to them with an expressionless face and raised her hand to give each of them a crisp big punch.
"Wake up, what's wrong? Are you reluctant to leave?"
The people who were woken up by her hit covered their faces with their hands, feeling a little wronged: "Junior sister, don't hit people in the face."
Xu Zhi said helplessly: "Your faces are the only ones that are okay. What if I hit you and the wounds on your bodies open?"
They have been fighting at a high intensity these days, and it is definitely not possible for Senior Sister Su Ran to keep up with the treatment alone. Now everyone has wounds of varying sizes, and it is difficult for Xu Zhi to figure out which parts of his teammates are healthy and which are still injured.
Especially in the autumn, the current situation can be described as tragic.
"That's true. Junior sister is still smart."
Xu Zhi:?
"I think your brain is really broken. Hurry up and leave here and go back to rest."
But no one who is still sane would say such words.
The return journey was much easier than going deeper. After all, some powerful supernatural creatures that would actively hunt them on the way here had been almost eliminated. As Xu Zhi was the most clear-headed person in the team, he was naturally responsible for planning the return route.
However, when he set out on the return journey, the temptation from the "Lost Land", which had not been too strong for Xu Zhi, suddenly became intense.
A strong sense of reluctance and a strange feeling began to pull at her. If she had to say it, it was a bit like she suddenly felt that this place was extremely suitable for her, as if she was born here and was born to stay here. The thought of leaving even made her feel painful.
Xu Zhi looked dazed for a moment, and she almost gritted her teeth to make herself "awake", but when she looked at her other teammates, she found that their expressions had not changed at all, as if she was the only one who felt this strong and inseparable call.
The call from the lost place to her alone, this place did not want to let her leave.
“It’s really hell.”
Xu Zhi gritted his teeth and couldn't help but murmured something in a low voice.
"Huh? Junior sister, what are you talking about?" The person walking next to her looked at her in confusion.
"It's okay, let's leave quickly."
Xu Zhi's face didn't look good, because she was no longer able to maintain those hypocritical smiles, and almost all her energy was used to fight against the loss.
She felt like a person stuck in a quagmire. Every time she took a seemingly easy step to leave, she was actually struggling with all her might. Countless hands stretched out from the quagmire, tugging at her mind, calling out to her, saying, "Stay here."
Damn it!
What on earth is in here!
Xu Zhi felt that she could no longer control herself and wanted to stay, because she had never had such a strong feeling before, feeling that she should do something, such as, stay!
"Junior high school girl."
Someone was calling Xu Zhi, but Xu Zhi was in a daze and didn't notice.
"Junior high school girl?!"
The person who called her stretched out his hand in front of her and waved it. Xu Zhi suddenly came back to her senses, and cold sweat appeared on her back. She realized that she had almost
"What's wrong?" Xu Zhi pretended nothing happened and looked at Shu Yushan who called her.
"We're almost at the entrance. I mean, shouldn't we keep the things we hunted with me temporarily? I'll exchange them for points and pay you back when we get back."
"Okay." Xu Zhi nodded, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She didn't dare to think about whether she would continue to be immersed in the dangerous feeling just now if Shu Yushan hadn't woken her up in time?
However, others didn't seem to notice that something was wrong with their condition?
For the rest of the journey, Xu Zhi put almost all of her heart and soul into resisting temptation. She kept repeating the word "leave" in her mind, as if to strengthen her belief, or as if to brainwash herself and create a goal.
When everyone finally left and returned to the entrance, and the teacher came out from the darkness to congratulate them on successfully completing the trial, Xu Zhi could hardly hear what the people around him were saying.
It seemed that ever since leaving the shallow layer of the Lost Land, the temptations had become less and less. Now that they had arrived at this place, the temptations that had caught them off guard and made everyone lose their minds when they first arrived were no longer worth mentioning to them.
Only Xu Zhi was still trapped in the devil's barrier, and was even getting deeper and deeper.
No one noticed that something was wrong with her. Xu Zhi's personality was a bit strange to begin with, and there were times when he was silent. Moreover, even the teachers in the inner courtyard thought that there would be no problems here.
Until everyone stepped towards the entrance, which was also the exit to completely leave the Lost Land, Xu Zhi stood outside the door, seemingly humbly letting her teammates go first, but in fact she could hardly control her legs to take this step.
When the last person walked into the door, Xu Zhi realized that she could not stay any longer. She was already a little annoyed. She didn't know what made her feel so wrong now. She only knew that she must not let anyone find out that something was wrong with her. No matter what ghost thing it was, it could not interfere with her and let her reveal her flaws!
Under such strong thoughts and anger, Xu Zhi was finally able to drive her legs towards the door. Her brain was almost unable to think, and she could not hear any normal sounds in her ears, only those chaotic and tempting sounds. Her eyes could only see a small section of the road under her feet, and everything else was covered with a thick layer of fog.
In the eyes of outsiders, she just walked into the door calmly, but in Xu Zhi's own eyes, everything seemed to be in slow motion.
When she finally stepped into the door with great effort, her body suddenly relaxed, and everything seemed to be stripped away, the strong temptation, the heavy feeling and the buzzing in her brain, even the sound that kept echoing in her ears suddenly disappeared.
All obstacles vanished without a trace. Xu Zhi fell to the ground unexpectedly, sweat dripping down her forehead. Her teacher and teammates frantically supported her and asked what was wrong. Xu Zhi palely shook her head and said, "I'm just a little tired."
The teammates seemed to think that Xu Zhi was probably the most tired one along the way, and some worry and guilt appeared on their faces. They thought in their hearts that the junior sister was only a first-grade student after all, and no matter how strong she was, she was still young. They seemed to only notice the strength shown by the junior sister, and even became accustomed to it. As a result, they mistakenly did not pay more attention to the junior sister, which allowed her to continue to act strong without rest.
But only Xu Zhi knew why he fell.
Her mental strength seemed to be overdrawn. Her body and consciousness became relaxed, but her brain ached slightly. The short period of time since she came back was even more difficult than the experience of the previous few days.
Suddenly, she turned around and looked at the lost sky outside the door. Although the ground was covered with fog, the sun was unexpectedly bright, so bright that she couldn't even look directly at it, nor could she see its shape. Tears welled up in her eyes because of the dazzling sunlight, and Xu Zhi had to look away.
Even though all the temptations had disappeared at this moment, Xu Zhi was still frightened by the feeling just now, but she still felt
If she had the chance, she would go in and take a look deep into the Lost Land.
What exactly is targeting her?
What attracts her so much?
