Chapter 687: Escape Quietly



It’s just right for Xu Xin and others to complete their tasks.

"A monster..." Li Wenxi muttered to himself, then became worried, "Can it... really be trusted?"

"There's no point in talking about this now. This plan itself was proposed by it." Xu Xin shook his head slightly. "If we didn't trust it, there's no need for us to come here."

"That's true..." Li Wenxi pursed her lips. "Besides, Sister Gui Xin has been communicating with it a lot and now trusts it. I... I trust Sister Gui Xin's judgment. But I still feel uneasy about leaving our ultimate fate in its hands."

"It's not really handed over to it," Xu Xin said. "It's just responsible for attracting firepower. The final result still depends on our efforts."

"Um."

At this time, Xu Xin and his companions had reached the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor, there is another door.

However, the door was not closed, but wide open.

Behind the door was a very bright wooden hall, almost the same as the one they came in from.

"...I'll go first." Lou Feier took a few steps forward.

The door was wide open, as if they were inviting someone into a trap, but this was the only way they could go.

After walking out the door, Lou Feier turned back slightly and looked behind the door.

Then her pupils shrank again, she held her breath, and winked at Xu Xin and the other two.

...Is that true?

Is there a "doorman" behind the door here?

Xu Xin and the other two walked out of the door calmly, then glanced behind the door.

It was as black as ink, wriggling, and hundreds of eyes were blinking constantly.

Well, that's what happened.

At this time, Li Wenxi beside him gently pulled Xu Xin's arm with his hand, and then pointed upwards.

Xu Xin looked up.

The entire ceiling was covered with dark holes as thick as fingers.

The small holes are densely packed and almost completely adjacent to each other.

Looking closely at these small holes, each one contained an even smaller silver tip. These silver tips seemed to possess life, swaying slowly within each hole.

All the small holes were like this, and the swinging of the silver tips made the entire ceiling seem to be wriggling.

The entire ceiling seemed like a dense wormhole with worms wriggling in it. Even Xu Xin, who did not have any claustrophobia, felt a little scalp tingling at this moment.

Li Wenxi made a gun gesture with his hand.

Xu Xin and the other two immediately understood.

These little black holes are...gun muzzles?

Are those little silver needles...bullets?

So, the ability to swing gently is to adjust the direction of attack?

...In short, this room is very dangerous, with gunpoint everywhere.

At the same time, there is more than just one door in this room.

In addition to the door they had just entered, there were five more doors in front of them.

There are two doors on the left wall, one on the wall opposite, and two on the right wall.

These doors should be the paths leading to the buildings in the wall.

Xu Xin rubbed Coco's head in his arms.

“Hmm…Hmm.”

After having her head rubbed, Coco, who had been shrinking, poked her little head out again.

The little guy saw the black holes on the ceiling and quickly retracted half of his head, leaving only his two eyes exposed. Then he stretched out his little paw a little and pointed at the door right in front of him.

Is it really that door?

Li Wenxi and the other two all saw Coco's little action. Lou Feier took the lead and walked towards the door.

Xu Xin and Li Wenxi followed closely behind, while Jin Yue glanced at the corridor behind and followed.

Lou Feier walked to the door.

This door also opens to both left and right, but it is tightly closed.

"Hmm..." Coco stretched out her two little paws and made a pushing motion forward.

Can I just push it open?

Xu Xin took a few steps forward and nodded at Lou Feier.

The two of them no longer hesitated and pressed on the door, one on the left and one on the right.

The double doors were gently pushed open.

Very smooth and doesn't require much effort.

After just pushing open a gap big enough for one person to pass through, the two men stopped moving.

Don't open it too wide, as the risk of being discovered will increase.

Behind the door is a large ball woven from vines.

Vine ball elevator?

They looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then walked straight in.

Xu Xin reached out and pushed the door shut.

With a slight sound, the wooden door closed.

Then, before anyone could react, the vines beneath their feet began to wriggle!

Several people were a little unsteady for a moment and quickly supported each other.

But from the cracks in the vine ball under his feet, four vines as thick as arms, with blood markings all over their bodies, emerged!

The four knew what was going to happen next and did not say anything or resist.

The four vines slowly wrapped around the bodies of the four people.

As the four vines gradually entangled, the vines woven into the ground under the feet of the four people began to gradually become sparse.

Finally, when they were completely entangled, their feet were hanging in the air.

Gusts of cold wind blew up from below.

Xu Xin looked down and could already see the ground a hundred meters below.

Then……

The vines tied to the people suddenly softened, and they began to fall freely as if they were bungee jumping with ropes tied to them!

“Hmm…!”

Fortunately, the four of them held back and didn't scream.

Finally, when they were about ten meters from the ground, the vines wrapped around them exerted force again, slowing their descent, and then...

They landed smoothly on the ground.

Then, the blood-patterned vines hanging from the crown of the World Tree slowly loosened from their bodies and shrank back towards the World Tree at an extremely fast speed. It took only two seconds for them to completely retract and disappear.

"We... just came out like this?" Li Wenxi covered his pounding heart and said in disbelief.

"You guys finally came out."

At this time, Xu Ying's voice came from behind them.

Xu Xin looked back and saw Xu Ying standing behind them with a relieved expression on her face, and the purple-black vortex under her feet was gradually disappearing.

She must have discovered the situation here from somewhere else and teleported here directly.

"Brother, you guys are really slow. If you were any slower, I would go in and find you directly." Xu Ying punched Xu Xin.

Xu Xin grabbed her fist and asked hesitantly, "Have you... found the place?"

"Of course. What about you?"

"We've gained a lot." Li Wenxi laughed softly.

"Well, this is not the place to talk, let's leave here first."

"Okay, I've got the others to safety, let's go find them now."
