Mo Shuwan turned to look at Chen Jiaxu, but unexpectedly, Chen Jiaxu seemed to have noticed and also turned to look at her. She could only vaguely see the worry on Chen Jiaxu's face. Suppressing some strange thoughts in her heart, Mo Shuwan whispered, "If it's a problem with those crystals, why are we alright?"
At this moment, Yun Chen, who had been crunching on the crystals the whole time, suddenly explained, "Because we can absorb a certain amount of dark power, the side effects of these crystals have no effect on us. They won't work." As he said this, Yun Chen turned to look at Cheng Hua, "Too weak."
Chen Jiaxu stared speechlessly at Yun Chen, who had a gloating expression on his face.
Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo nodded at the same time.
"It seems that the spiritual energy in these crystals appears pure, but in fact it has been corrupted by dark forces."
Knowing that it wasn't some monster causing trouble, the group felt relieved. If their guess was correct, Chenghua and the others would be able to return to normal once the spiritual energy was completely depleted. The spiritual energy from the crystals they had consumed would probably not be enough to sustain them for even an hour.
Sure enough, after about half an hour, everyone gradually recovered from their roaring state. During this time, Wen Zuo was healing them and managed to save their lives.
A group of people lay on the ground, barely alive, their eyes filled with lingering fear. They remembered what had just happened clearly, but their thoughts were out of control, and they just wanted to scratch.
Because of this incident, all the remaining crystals ended up in the pockets of Mo Shuwan and the others. As they consumed more and more crystals, Mo Shuwan and Yun Chen could feel their injuries slowly healing. Although the progress was slow and they would soon be corroded again by the dark power, it was still enough to make them feel pleasantly surprised.
At least we don't have to rely solely on Wen Zuo's efforts to recover!
Upon learning this, the two ate without stopping until all the crystals were gone, at which point they reluctantly stopped.
"Not bad, it wasn't a complete loss."
I'm going out for a bit.
Seeing that Yun Chen couldn't wait to go out and have fun as soon as he recovered a little, Mo Shuwan's lips twitched slightly, and she quickly grabbed him, "Don't rush."
"Captain, we need to go out and scout the situation. Staying here now will only exhaust us and we won't gain anything else." In order to get out, Yun Chen actually changed his usual indifference and tried his best to persuade Mo Shuwan.
"I know, but now is not the time."
Mo Shuwan exerted a little force and pulled Yun Chen to her side. Although she was still blind, her spirit had recovered a lot. "Everyone, let's not hide anything now."
Everyone seemed to hold their breath for a moment. "What are you saying?"
"Heh, hiding it all? Do you think our current situation is necessary?"
Mo Shuwan did not interrupt their sarcastic remarks. She waited until they finished speaking before smiling and saying, "Everyone knows where we are now. If I'm not mistaken, a large number of foreign invaders are already searching for us. In our current state, waiting for them to come to us will only lead to our death. The only way is to take the initiative."
Some people looked up at Mo Shuwan as if she were an idiot. "Launching an attack? You make it sound so easy."
Wang Jiajia also shook his head and sighed, "It's not that we don't want to, but given the current situation, it's very difficult for us to even take two steps."
Yun Chen, who had been dejected, actually understood what Mo Shuwan meant and gradually became excited.
Feeling the wounds corroded by the dark power spreading towards her heart, Mo Shuwan quickly used the spiritual energy stored in her body to force the dark power elsewhere. As for the excruciating pain coming from other parts of her body, she did not care.
"You don't need to do anything, just hand over the cards you still hold, and we'll take care of the rest."
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere inside the cave seemed to freeze instantly.
"Heh, I'm leaving it all to you?"
"Now I finally understand why you saved us!"
In their eyes, Mo Shuwan and her group's treacherous intentions were blatantly obvious. They were only saving them to squeeze out the last bit of value from them, hoping to get them to hand them over willingly? Dream on!
Having anticipated this situation, Mo Shuwan was not surprised. From the beginning, she had never intended for everyone to believe her. "You have ten minutes to consider. Of course, this is not me forcing you, but rather because I myself don't have much time left to hold on."
Mo Shuwan was telling the truth. The spiritual energy she had ingested would probably only last for five hours at most, and if she encountered a fierce battle, this time would be shortened even further. But almost no one believed her.
The reason I say "almost" is because Zheng Shanhe and Wang Jiabing made the decision very quickly.
"younger brother!"
Wang Jiabing kicked the box he had just taken out. "The contents inside can save your life." He paused, then added, "Under any circumstances."
"Are you crazy?!"
Wang Jiajia and Wang Jialin stared at Wang Jiabing in disbelief, looking utterly bewildered. They couldn't understand how their younger brother could so easily take out something that could save his life—it was something else entirely!
Mo Shu picked up the small box before going out. Because she couldn't see, she didn't open it. Instead, she touched Hope and let it lead her to Zheng Shanhe's side, where she took the things he had placed in front of her.
This time, without Zheng Shanhe's explanation, Mo Shuwan reached out and touched it, immediately understanding what it was: a location card. It could pinpoint a location, and even if one was thousands of miles away, they could instantly return to that location using the card. Under normal circumstances, one such card could be used at least ten times. Instantly, her original plan changed.
