Chapter 220
In this life-and-death situation, everyone tried their best. Even Su Bei, who was standing in the corner of the ring, was dragged several times and almost exposed. The entire ring was "covered with wounds" and was about to fall apart.
During the fight, Jiang Tianming suddenly realized a problem. He said to Cyril and the others, "You probably can't leave now, so you're staying here with us. Otherwise, since it's certain that we'll die in 20 minutes and no one outside can get in, why do you have to stay here?"
Not only that, they came in at the cost of a lot of lives and through the magic circle. It can be seen that the defense of the venue is actually very strict. It is not easy to get in, and naturally it is not easy to get out.
"So what?" Cyril did not deny what he said, but was just curious about what Jiang Tianming wanted to say.
"So as long as we can hold you back, even if we die, you have to stay and die with us!" Jiang Tianming said as he suddenly turned to look at Wu Mingbai and Huangfu Mingzhe, the strongest among the others: "Let the arena collapse and trap them. This is our only way to avenge ourselves."
Now he no longer expected these two men to have a change of heart and let them go. They remained unmoved after talking for so long. He should think about how to avenge himself.
After hearing what Jiang Tianming said, Wu Mingbai and Huangfu Mingzhe immediately understood what he meant. Simply put, he wanted to create the effect of an earthquake collapse. If they could be pressed underneath, then with their abilities, they would not be able to escape in a short time.
Cyril raised his eyebrows in surprise, but soon smiled again: "You want to die together, but you didn't ask your teammates if they agree. I'm afraid they don't want to die that much."
"You guys do your best." Si Zhaohua was the first to speak out, "Anyway, I will never surrender."
Lan Subing's face turned pale because she had used a lot of supernatural powers. But her blue eyes were as firm as ever. She didn't say anything, but just clenched her fist to show her support and determination.
As for Su Bei, he chuckled and seemed very relaxed: "Let's do it this way."
He didn't say anything like "No one will die." Although that was true, there was no need to say it now. First, he didn't know how everyone escaped, and second, he didn't need to say that to establish his character.
The others also nodded in agreement. It didn't matter if they died sooner or later, and if they didn't want to join the Black Flash organization, it would be a kind of consolation if they could keep Cyril and the other two here.
The entire arena was filled with a tragic atmosphere, and everyone had the thought of "I sacrifice my blood for Xuanyuan". The other people were responsible for entanglement of Cyril and the others, while Wu Mingbai and Huangfu Mingzhe were responsible for working together to destroy the arena.
Jiang Tianming's method should really work for them, and Cyril and Li Xiang both began to stop this destructive plan. They just came to complete the mission, but they didn't want to be trapped here.
Li Xiang instantly summoned countless corpses, which stood densely on the stage and attacked Wu Mingbai and Huangfu Mingzhe. Cyril didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. He left the task of dealing with them to his two teammates and focused on the 1V3.
Looking at his expression, Su Bei couldn't help but feel a little confused. Cyril definitely didn't use his full strength. His ability to deal with humans was much easier than Li thought. If he really used his ability, they would probably die quickly.
But he didn't, and even in a pure physical fight, he didn't look particularly aggressive. Because Su Bei's fighting level was very high, he could clearly see that Cyril still had some strength left.
Does he not want to kill everyone or does he just not care and want to watch the show?
Meanwhile, Wu Mingbai and Huangfu Mingzhe, under the protection of others, began to destroy the arena. It was difficult to build the arena, but it was easy to destroy it, especially since one of them was very powerful. The other person had the [Earth Element] ability that specifically targeted the arena.
At first, Wu Mingbai had caused little damage to the ring, so Li Xiang dropped most of the bodies to harass Huangfu Mingzhe. But he obviously didn't know Wu Mingbai well enough. This guy was a mean guy with a sunny appearance but full of tricks.
In less than five minutes, he, who was already prepared, suddenly triggered all the hidden clues.
"Bang!"
As if an earthquake had occurred, the entire ring collapsed with a loud bang. Just as Jiang Tianming said, it caved in directly and everyone fell in. In order to prevent Cyril and the other two from being able to jump out of the collapsed hole directly with their super strong physical qualities, Wu Ming had buried earth elemental light balls at a very deep place, causing their collapsed position to be very deep.
The arena suddenly collapsed, and everyone's reactions were different. Su Bei, who had expected this, stepped on a few stones and walked down like a light-weight martial artist. Jiang Tianming, who had been prepared, used his [Control Objects] ability to control the stones to carry him and Lan Subing down. Wu Mingbai, needless to say, directly generated a soil pillar and lowered him down like an elevator...
However, the ancestors and others who were not mentally prepared fell down directly and cried out in pain.
Li Xiang collected the corpses back the moment they fell. The corpses were very fragile. Although the situation was very critical under the operation of Jiang Tianming and others, he did not think that he would really die, so he did not want to waste the combat power he had gathered with great difficulty.
After everyone stood firm, Huangfu Mingzhe was the first to laugh uninhibitedly. He looked up at the light far above his head, then looked at the ground under his feet that had turned into mud: "Then I'll add more fire."
After saying this, he used some unknown ability and the golden light on his body turned into brown-yellow light.
"The Five-clawed Golden Dragon possesses the five elements." The well-informed Si Zhaohua explained to Su Bei, Jiang Tianming and others in a low voice, "But it is not as strong as Wu Mingbai."
As he spoke, Huangfu Mingzhe punched the ground, and all the soil on the ground suddenly seemed to be controlled by something and began to quickly fall apart. It was obvious that he wanted them to fall deeper so that Cyril and the other two would have a harder time escaping.
However, what no one expected was that before the soil could be decomposed much under Huangfu Mingzhe's operation, a big hole suddenly appeared underneath, causing all of them to fall directly into it.
The previous hole was made by Wu Mingbai in advance, but this one was not the same. His mental strength could not support him to make two big holes in just one minute.
Even Cyril and Li Xiang, who had been relatively calm, showed a look of surprise when they fell. Not to mention the others, their heads were full of questions.
Why is there a hole underneath?
This time, no one was able to react, and one by one they fell down with a "thump" and landed on the hard floor.
Before they could stand up, a group of people suddenly gathered around them. However, because the underground environment was very dark and there was no light at all, even with the eyesight of a superpower, they couldn't see what these people looked like.
Su Bei was able to roughly describe the appearance of these creatures with his advanced mental power. They seemed to have no eyes and small noses. They had not only four trunks, but at least eight. The clothes they wore were not made of normal cloth, but something similar to mud.
They were whispering and no one knew what they were discussing. What they spoke was probably in dialect. Although one could tell it was their native language, no one could really understand it.
Others didn't think anything was wrong, but Su Bei, who knew what these guys looked like, was very surprised. He originally thought that these things were not human, but some kind of aliens. But after listening to the language they spoke, could they really be human?
Feeling them approaching, everyone became alert and prepared to use their special powers. But the next second, their faces changed drastically. They didn't know what was going on, and now they could feel that their special powers were greatly restricted.
Lan Subing had already used too much mental power to use any supernatural powers, and now he could hardly feel the existence of his supernatural powers. The same was true for others, such as Su Bei, who could still see everyone's destiny compass, but could hardly adjust the needle. He had not used much mental power, but he could not use his supernatural powers.
Although he couldn't use his superpowers anymore, Su Bei didn't feel scared. On the contrary, he actually smiled. His superpowers were suppressed, so did that mean that the skill that Cyril had used before would have less impact on them?
In other words, they shouldn't have to die in the short term.
This is undoubtedly good news. Su Bei was wondering how they could survive in such a situation. So this is how it is.
The others didn't have time to think about these things. After finding out that they couldn't use their special powers, no one dared to say a word. They could only let these strange guys approach them and tie them up.
It is true that their physical fitness is still there and they can perform physical attacks. But this is obviously the home of these strangers. If they attack them rashly, the situation may become worse. Most of the people present are not fools, so naturally no one would do this.
The rough touch of the body made the people who couldn't see feel a little confused. Logically, it should have been these people's hands that touched them, but why are human hands so rough?
And who are these people? How did they appear under the competition venue? Does the supernatural government know about their existence? What do they want to do by tying themselves up?
One question after another lingered in their minds. Everyone, including Cyril and Li Xiang, remained silent, thinking quietly about the current situation.
At the same time, Su Bei heard the "comic consciousness" prompt sound, "Superpower King" has been updated!
In an instant, all the questions in his mind were cleared, leaving only one thought: "This author is really stuck in writing!"
The group of people gestured to Su Bei and others who were tied up to follow them. Everyone obeyed their orders obediently and walked together in the dark cave.
Because the entire space was extremely dark, even after being inside for a while, my eyes still hadn't adjusted and I couldn't see anything. This shows that this underground space really has no light.
After turning left and right several times and leading them into a damp room, those people left one after another, closing the door behind them.
Only then did everyone finally feel like talking. Huangfu Mingzhe frowned and said, "What is going on here? Who are the people underground? Have any of you seen them?"
"I..." The ancestor raised his hand weakly. Although his expression could not be seen, it could be seen from his voice that he was probably in a bad mood. "I feel it."
Because of the [Arena] ability, he has been specially trained to be able to sense his surroundings in the dark. It can be said that even if he becomes a blind person, he can still move freely.
Therefore, in this situation, apart from Su Bei who can use his mental power to sense the surroundings, Qiao Mu who has the power of shadow, and the two powerful psychics who are aware of "Black Flash", he is the one who knows the current situation best.
Without wasting any time, he stated his findings directly: "Those guys are very strange. I'm not even sure if they are human. Maybe you didn't notice it, but I could feel that when they tied us up with ropes, they used at least three hands, three hands of one person."
Hearing his words, Jiang Tianming also frowned, "Hiding in such a dark underground, if it is hidden for a long time, I am afraid that the vision will deteriorate. Multiple arms, no eyes, it doesn't sound like a human being."
At this time, Cyril suddenly spoke up, and his voice sounded very interested: "This feature... did you notice what color their hair is?"
"I can't see." The ancestor shook his head subconsciously and then suddenly realized, "No, why should I answer you?"
His words also reminded the others, and Huangfu Mingzhe easily untied the rope that bound him: "Now that no one can use superpowers, I don't believe that you two can defeat so many of us just by relying on physical skills!"
Obviously, he wanted to take this opportunity to kill Xilier and Li Xiang, and this was indeed a good opportunity. As he said, without superpowers, Xilier and Li Xiang could not be their opponents relying solely on physical skills. It is true that they are far superior to others in terms of speed and strength, but they are not to the extent of crushing them, so they cannot deal with too many people.
After realizing this, the others' eyes lit up and they looked at the two men eagerly. Li Xiang coughed weakly twice and said slowly, "You are just sending us away by killing us now."
They all have props from the Black Flash organization on them, so it's not easy to die outside.
Upon hearing this, Si Zhaohua and Huangfu Mingzhe's faces changed. They themselves were also members of a powerful force, so they naturally knew how many life-saving trump cards a powerful force had. If these two people were caught by the academy, then they might not be able to use props to revive because of some of the academy's special powers or props. But if they were killed here, they would definitely not really die.
Cyril smiled and said, "Why don't we explore this place together? I'm also very interested in these creatures. Maybe I'll let you go after our adventure together is over."
"Ha." Huangfu Mingzhe sneered.
Wu Mingbai looked innocent and innocent, and said as if he believed what he said: "That's great! We will definitely get results if we study together. What did you mean by asking about their hair color just now?"
Cyril glanced at him in the darkness, then answered slowly, "Legend has it that when the superpowers first appeared, there was a different kind of superpower. They did not possess controllable superpowers like other superpowers, but their bodies changed and they grew three heads and six arms. Ordinary superpowers were excluded at that time, let alone them. But after a major earthquake, they all suddenly disappeared, and there has been no record of them in history since then."
"You suspect that these people are the descendants of those people, but how is that possible? How could they hide underground for so long without coming out? What did they eat and drink during this time?" The ancestor said disapprovingly. After feeling what these guys looked like, he didn't think that the creatures here were human beings at all.
Cyril's voice was still very calm: "Do you think that the supernatural power only gave them deformed bodies? No, they also had special abilities. However, there are not many records in history books, only their experience of being hunted down. If you want to judge their identity, in addition to the characteristic of three heads and six arms, another point is that they are all born with white hair."
"They do have white hair." At this moment, Qiao Mu suddenly spoke up. With the ability of Shadow Leap, she had a higher perception in the dark than others. To her, darkness was no different from daytime, so she could clearly see what these people looked like.
This is why Qiao Mu didn't say anything just now. She was also scared. If it weren't for the story told by Cyril, she would probably think that these guys were not human beings like her ancestors.
In addition to their eight rough tentacles, their skin is blue-gray, and with white hair and strange facial features, they really look like they have nothing to do with humans.
"That's them." Cyril said with certainty, "We should take the initiative to contact them. Maybe they will be willing to send us back to the ground."
"Actually, we don't need to do anything," Si Zhaohua immediately thought of another way, "We just need to wait here, the teachers will definitely come to rescue us."
They fell in front of everyone, not in some unknown corner. Even if the teachers couldn't get into the venue in a short time, they would definitely be able to rescue them in an hour.
His words couldn't make more sense. The people who were originally worried suddenly felt relieved and their originally wrinkled brows relaxed.
"They won't come back." However, Su Bei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly gave this answer and then said no more.
"Why?" Si Zhaohua showed a surprised expression.
After waiting for a while, Su Bei didn't answer. He was about to ask again, but Li Xiang opened his mouth to help him answer this question: "Because this place is not right, although we can fall down, they may not be able to find us, otherwise how could these people hide here for so long?"
You have to know that this place is the competition venue. Although the foundation of the venue is not so deep, it must have been built by a master of earth elemental power. Unless the other party was extremely careless when building it, it would be difficult to feel that there is such a large space below.
Besides, it has been repaired over the years, so there must be a problem if it has not been checked.
What he didn't say was that when he fell into this space, the bodies he had buried around him disappeared. This shows that this is a different space in a sense, but no one knows how they fell in.
If the people outside can't find them, then they really have to find a way out. Si Zhaohua thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go back to where we fell in and fly up to see if we can still find an exit. If we can't find an exit, I'll take you up one by one. If not, we'll think of other ways."
Although it is almost impossible to use superpowers in the underground world, if he just wants to summon the [Angel] superpower, it is still possible. Once this superpower is summoned, it can fly, and if it can fly up, it can report to the outside world.
This is indeed the most reliable method at present, and everyone has no objection. So now the problem comes, the ancestors ask: "How can we hide it from the people here and let Student Si leave?"
Everyone was silent for a while. The ancestors' worry was justified. If Si Zhaohua left without warning, it would arouse the vigilance of the people here, causing the others who stayed behind to be in danger. But none of them could cover it up, and even if they did, their abilities would be useless.
While others were thinking about this question, Su Bei was thinking about another question: Why did Wu Jin just bring up his own issue?
He pulled himself when Cyril said "We should take the initiative to contact them", and perhaps because he was afraid of being discovered, he simply pulled the hem of his clothes.
If only Cyril had pulled him back at that time, then there must be something wrong. But Su Bei didn't find anything wrong. Both Li Xiang and Cyril definitely didn't want them to be rescued by the academy, because then they couldn't escape. So it was normal for them to want to contact the aborigines here and seek another way to leave.
I should find a chance to ask Wu Jin. He lowered his eyes. He was more worried about another thing. The situation shown by the fate compass above Li Bowen and Qiao Mu meant that they were in a very dangerous position.
The big hands of these two people are both at twelve o'clock, which means that something big is going to happen. The little hands are very far to the right, almost to the end, which shows that this big thing will definitely not be a good thing.
Judging from the position of the little finger, Su Bei estimated that even if they would not die, they would probably be seriously injured. This was also the reason why Su Bei had just reminded them that if they waited here, they would definitely die.
The protagonists will not die, but the people outside the protagonists may not die. So this reminder is not only for these two people, but also for himself, because he is also a person outside the protagonists.
After all, he is the protagonist. Jiang Tianming quickly and calmly analyzed: "What we should do most now is not to find a way out, but to understand the terrain here and adapt to the darkness. Otherwise, even if you, Zhaohua, think of a way to leave alone, can you accurately return to the place where we fell?"
