They couldn't feel at ease knowing that someone could attack several passengers simultaneously without making a sound or revealing any clues, even though he hadn't shown any signs of wrongdoing so far.
After finding out the situation, Mo Shuwan looked at Yun Chenjing with a wry smile, then looked at Chen Jiaxu next to her and said helplessly, "Don't talk to him about these things. You know his current situation."
Chen Jiaxu glanced at Yun Chenjing discreetly and said vaguely, "He seemed quite lucid before, I never expected his thinking to be like this..."
After a brief incident, the group continued deeper into the cave. Unbeknownst to them, the cave behind them was gradually disappearing. More than ten minutes after the cave vanished, a massive figure appeared in the darkness at the cave entrance. It stretched out its claws and scratched at the air, then let out a low growl and turned to charge towards its right.
A moment later, a thin figure appeared where the monster had disappeared. He held a bow that blended almost into the darkness in his hand, and the quiver on his back contained the arrows that had attacked Mo Shuwan and his companions earlier.
"It failed..."
Unaware of what had happened behind them, Mo Shuwan and the others ventured deeper into the area. After about half an hour, all the visible footprints disappeared, and they had encountered no danger along the way, which was quite unbelievable.
Zheng Shanhe said, "Let's rest here first."
They were currently in a circular, sunken area. The temperature inside was very low, but strangely, despite feeling cold, there was an inexplicable feeling of extreme dryness.
They carefully placed defensive talismans around the area and activated a batch of them first, in case any monsters suddenly appeared and caught them off guard.
"Did anyone notice when our heartbeats returned to normal?"
After Zheng Shanhe raised this question, Mo Shuwan was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought back, and realized that she had not paid any attention to this question at all.
"What happened? I completely forgot to check when my heartbeat would return to normal?" Zou Zhiqing's voice was full of disbelief.
"It's not that you forgot, it's that you were forced to forget."
There is a fundamental difference between forgetting on one's own and being forced to forget.
"That monster is a big problem? What do we do now? We've already gotten this far, and it seems we've gotten rid of that monster."
Mo Shuwan glanced at Luo Baokun. On the contrary, she didn't think they had gotten rid of the monster. She had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Although she never ignored her intuition, this was not her team after all. She did not intend to say anything before she had clear evidence.
They had no idea what the monster was or what its abilities were, so they couldn't guess why everyone was forced to forget about the heart rate recovery time. They could only assume for the time being that it was very important, and if there was a next time, they would first need to figure out the heart rate recovery time.
After discussing for a while, Mo Shuwan changed the subject, "When we came here just now, did you all look closely at the footprints on the road? I saw at least twenty people's footprints, but without exception, all of them were very small. My foot was even much larger than them."
"I saw them. At first, I thought they were children's footprints, but the more footprints I found and the more I looked at, the more certain I became that they were not children's footprints, nor were they the footprints of other bus passengers. It could only mean that those footprints belonged to the natives of this dark world, and were probably not human."
Zheng Shanhe, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, saying, "Before this, no one on the forum had mentioned the natives of the dark world."
"...So, these natives only appeared recently? Or perhaps they appeared along with the changes in this world?"
"Very likely."
Things seemed to be getting worse, and to make matters worse, the indigenous people seemed to have their eyes on them.
The cave seemed safe for the time being, but they didn't stay long. After resting for a while, they continued deeper into the cave. The footprints of the indigenous people never appeared again, as if they had never been there.
"The temperature is getting lower and lower, and I'm afraid we can't go any further."
Mo Shuwan squinted, feeling her head spinning. Waves of drowsiness washed over her, and she yawned. She walked over to Wen Zuo, who was observing the wall, and then buried her head in his shoulder, yawning several times in a row.
"What's wrong?" Wen Zuo turned around and hugged Mo Shuwan, who was leaning against him. He touched her hands and found them to be cold, so he simply held them with both of his own.
Mo Shuwan, feeling that Wen Zuo's voice was a little muffled, shook her head with difficulty, yawned, and suddenly reached out to unzip Wen Zuo's down jacket. She squeezed into his arms and fell asleep in just a few seconds against his warm chest.
"Shuwan?"
Wen Zuo called Mo Shuwan's name a few times, but when she didn't respond, he shone the light on her face with the lighting prop card and found that she was already asleep. He frowned deeply and said, "Shuwan is asleep."
"Fallen down at this hour?"
Wen Zuo hummed in agreement, then carried Mo Shuwan to Zheng Shanhe's side. Within the protection of everyone, he looked down at Mo Shuwan, reaching out to touch the temperature of her forehead and neck. The temperature was normal, but it was impossible for her to fall asleep at this time.
"Wen Zuo, what happened to the captain?"
grumble--
Hope and stratosphere crowded around Mo Shuwan, making anxious noises.
