Lin Yu's face suddenly changed, and he secretly said in his heart that it was not good. The ominous premonition became stronger. He subconsciously held the "Chaos Sutra" tightly in his arms, as if it was his last resort. "I can't be so unlucky, these two guys are like sticky candy, I can't get rid of them no matter how hard I try!" He complained wildly in his heart, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Su Yao noticed that Lin Yu was acting strangely and asked nervously, "Lin Yu, what's wrong? Are the big men chasing us?" Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of fear and anxiety. The experience of being chased before made her feel scared, and at this moment, every little movement could make her nervous.
Xiao Yi's face was filled with indignation, his fists clenched tightly, his joints turning white from the force: "If they dare to come again, I will fight them! We must not let them succeed this time!" His eyes were burning with anger. The last escape made him full of anger, and at this moment it was like a volcano about to erupt.
Lu Ming pushed his glasses, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes behind the lenses, but he quickly regained his composure. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down and think about how to deal with it: "Don't panic, let's see the situation first, maybe it's not them." Although he said this, he was not sure in his heart, and his fingers unconsciously fumbled in the bag, looking for props that might come in handy.
Lin Yu anxiously called out to the system in his heart: "Brother System, please give me some advice! If it really is those two guys, what should we do? You can't just watch the secret book I worked so hard to get go to waste again!"
The system's cold, mechanical voice rang out again: "A potential threat has been detected against the host. We recommend observing from cover and confirming the enemy's identity before making any decisions. In the meantime, the host can use the 'Stealth Cloak' from the system store to temporarily conceal their form and avoid enemy detection. Price: 200 points."
"200 points?! You are trying to kill me! I only have 450 points now, and you took away almost half of them in one go!" Lin Yu almost jumped up, looking at the points he had accumulated with great difficulty with heartache, feeling as if his treasure had been bitten hard by someone.
The system responded emotionlessly: "The value of the item is proportional to its function. The current situation is urgent. It is recommended that the host make a choice as soon as possible."
Lin Yu gritted his teeth, weighed the pros and cons again and again, and finally reluctantly exchanged it: "Okay, okay, you really have me in your control. When I become rich in the future, just wait and see how I will deal with your 'black-hearted' system!" After that, a black cloak appeared in his hand.
Lin Yu quickly unfolded his cloak, called on his companions to hide in the shadow of the cave, and covered everyone with the cloak. Just as they had hidden themselves, the arrogant voice of the big man came from outside the cave: "Humph, I knew they must have entered this ruins. This time we must find them and grab all the treasures!"
The thin man echoed in a shrill voice: "That's right, boss, we must not let them get away this time!" The footsteps of the two were getting closer and closer, and every step seemed to be stepping on the hearts of Lin Yu and others.
Lin Yu clenched his fists tightly, not daring to breathe, and silently prayed in his heart that he would not be discovered. His heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and he felt like it was about to jump out of his throat. His eyes were fixed on the cave entrance, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
Su Yao hid under the cloak, her body trembling slightly. She tightly grasped the corner of Lin Yu's clothes, as if this would give her a sense of security. Xiao Yi, on the other hand, looked unwilling, and held the weapon in his hand tighter. He wanted to rush out and fight the big man to the death, but he still resisted the impulse and obeyed Lin Yu's arrangements.
Under his cloak, Lu Ming carefully adjusted the detection device he invented, trying to understand the situation outside through it, while also thinking about the escape route in case he was discovered.
The big man and the thin man searched the cave, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, cursing from time to time. "Strange, why is there no one here? Did they run away somewhere else?" the big man asked doubtfully.
The thin man rolled his eyes and said viciously, "Impossible! They must still be around here. Let's look carefully. Maybe they're hiding in some corner!"
Just as the big man and the thin man were about to approach the hiding place of Lin Yu and others, the system prompt sound suddenly rang in Lin Yu's mind: "Emergency mission triggered: Lead the big man and the thin man out of the ruins within ten minutes. Mission success reward: Advanced dodge skill book, 500 points; mission failure penalty: deduction of 400 points, and the power of a random supernatural power is reduced by half for one day."
Lin Yu's heart tightened. This mission came too suddenly, but at this moment he had no other choice. He quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He whispered to his companions: "I have a plan. I will use my supernatural power to create some noise and lure them into the depths of the cave. You take the opportunity to go out of the cave and find a place to hide outside. Then I will find a way to escape."
Su Yao quickly shook her head: "No, it's too dangerous, we have to go together!"
Xiao Yi also said firmly: "Yes, we can't leave you alone!"
Lin Yu said firmly: "There is no time. This is the best way at the moment. Believe me, I will be able to get out safely. We will meet again after I complete the task."
Everyone had no choice but to nod in agreement. Lin Yu took a deep breath, concentrated his supernatural power, and threw a stone into the depths of the cave. The sound of the stone falling to the ground was particularly loud in the silent cave.
"What's that sound? Over there!" The big man and the thin man heard the sound and immediately chased towards the depths of the cave.
Lin Yu and others took the opportunity to get out from under the cloak and ran towards the cave entrance. Just when they were about to run to the cave entrance, the thin man suddenly realized something was wrong, looked back, and found the people who were running away. "Boss, they are there!"
