"Ouch!" Mou Xuan couldn't help but cry out in pain. A piercing pain came from his ankle.
"Brother Xuan, are you okay?" Explorer Ban quickly helped Mou Xuan up, "Why are you so careless?"
"It's okay, I just twisted it." Mou Xuan stood up while enduring the pain, but found that his ankle was swollen and he couldn't walk normally.
"Hiss...what should we do?" Navigator Fu looked worried, "How about we go out first?"
"Brother Xuan is injured? Let me take a look." Hunter Zhong asked with concern, and stepped forward to check Mou Xuan's injuries.
At this moment, Explorer Ban suddenly let out a strange cry: "Hey? What is this?" What he was holding in his hand was the handkerchief embroidered with orchids that Mou Xuan had just dropped.
"Brother Xuan, I didn't expect you to carry a lady's handkerchief with you?" The explorer smiled wickedly and said jokingly, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this orchid is so delicately embroidered. It's obviously made by a lady from a noble family. Who gave it to you? Tell the truth!"
Mou Xuan's face instantly turned red, and he stammered, unable to speak. "This... this is..."
“Hahaha, Brother Xuan is shy!” Seeing this, Hunter Zhong also joined in the fun, “It seems that our Brother Xuan is also a man with a story!”
For a moment, an ambiguous atmosphere spread among the team members, and the tense atmosphere eased a lot.
However, this relaxed atmosphere did not last long.
Suddenly, a shrill roar came from the depths of the ruins, and the ground began to shake slightly.
"Oh no! Something's happening!" Hunter Zhong's face changed and he immediately raised the weapon in his hand.
Almost at the same time, a group of small mutant beasts emerged from the depths of the ruins. They were not large in size, but extremely fast, with ferocious faces, bloodthirsty light flashing in their eyes, and they pounced towards the team members madly.
"Fuck! So many!" The explorer exclaimed and quickly raised his weapons to fight.
"Everyone be careful! Stand back to back and form a defensive formation!" Mou Xuan gave the orders calmly, enduring the pain in his ankle.
The tense battle atmosphere instantly filled the entire ruins.
Hunter Zhong is indeed a sharpshooter. Almost every bullet from his gun hits the target accurately, and every bullet hits the mutant beast's vital point.
Mechanic Li also took out his homemade weapon - a gun that could fire high-voltage electric grids, which electrocuted several mutant beasts that were approaching, causing them to twitch all over and become unable to move.
The battle lasted for nearly ten minutes. The team members used their best efforts and finally repelled all the mutant beasts.
"Huh...finally done." Explorer Ban wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is everyone okay?" Mou Xuan asked with concern.
"It's okay, no big deal." Hunter Zhong shrugged, looking relaxed.
"Brother Xuan, your foot..." Navigator Fu looked at Mou Xuan's ankle worriedly.
Mou Xuan waved his hands to indicate that he was fine.
"We continue to move forward. This relic... seems to be more complicated than we imagined."
A sense of victory spread among the team, and the team members were full of confidence in this exploration. However, they did not know that even greater dangers were waiting for them...
"Wait," Mou Xuan suddenly stopped and stared at the front. There seemed to be something shining...
"What is that?"
