Chapter 88 Trapped Beast
Seeing Ji Zi's strange behavior, Lin Wen was the first to follow and explore the surroundings.
Qi Yi touched the ground and put his fingertips under his nose to sniff.
"It smells strange."
A sentry on Shen Xueying's side also identified it, "It smells like some kind of mucus."
"Did that stone gate just now say 'enter' and 'fight'?" Lin Wen suddenly asked.
"yes."
"We've chosen to enter, so what kind of fight will that be? Will it be a direct battle with the guides from the north? Or..."
Shen Xueying belatedly realized that she wanted to lead others to run upwards, and her actions were like turning on some kind of switch.
Suddenly, a shocking roar came from the secret passage.
The steps crumbled into pieces.
Wen Ye stretched out his long arm and picked up Ji Zi in his arms, "Do you want to continue going down?" He was waiting for her order.
Ji Zi pursed her lips and said firmly: "Next."
In the chaos, Wen Ye hugged Ji Zi tightly and dived down the broken and collapsed steps.
"Hey, where are you going?" Xin Yue was protected in the arms of her sentry. "She's not going to abandon us and run away, is she?"
Seeing this, Lin Wen quickly ordered the sentries, "Follow them."
The group quickly moved down through the flying ash and rubble.
Soon, the voices of the guides from the north were heard.
"Someone seems to be coming?"
"Mengjie, is that you?"
"Can you hear us?"
Go down the steps and you will come to a low stone house.
A faint cry for help came from next door.
It sounds like it's trapped and can't get out.
"Damn, what is this place?" As soon as Shen Xueying opened her mouth, the sound from next door immediately disappeared.
Ji Zi and Lin Wen didn't even have time to stop it before they were exposed.
It's so stupid that it's hopeless.
The walls here are still the same as before, even softer.
Ji Zi suddenly had a guess in her mind, which needed to be verified.
Among her four sentinels, only Wen Ye is not poisonous, while the other spirits are weak to poison.
Among them, Sean is the most toxic and can be fatal.
"What do you want to do?" Lin Wen walked over.
For some reason, after the first two games, she seemed to become very concerned about Ji Zi.
He was always paying attention to her movements, but he was no longer as hypocritical and calculating as before.
It seems like following? And trying hard to cooperate?
"What do the patterns on these stone walls look like?"
Lin Wen came forward to observe carefully and did not speak for a long time.
Ji Zixiao asked, "Does it look like blood vessels in the human body?"
"you mean……"
Before he could finish his words, the ground shook again.
Following Ji Zi's instructions, Sean specially selected the thickest vein. The moment the fang was embedded, the stone house shook as if it was about to collapse.
The stone wall between the two teams of guides also collapsed during the shaking.
"Ji Zi!"
Someone from the northern guide team called out her name in panic.
Ji Zi didn't have time to deal with them and found a long and narrow passage behind the stone house.
Wen Ye picked her up again and ran towards the depths of the passage.
Seeing this, the people behind him also followed.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but find it a little funny.
It’s not strange that Lin Wen and the others followed me, but what’s going on when those guides and sentries from the north also followed me?
I don’t know how long I ran, but Wen Ye’s heavy breathing blew past my ears.
Finally, a ray of scarlet light came from the front.
She was not wrong.
They really entered the body of a huge creature.
And now, that thing seemed to be restrained by Sean's poison, just when Ji Zi and Qi Yi and others rushed out of the pipe.
There was another deep and powerful roar.
The passage slammed shut.
Everyone was trapped in the blood-red trachea.
Lin Wen slapped the wall that smelled fishy. The feeling of her hand moving little by little reminded her of what Ji Zi said. She covered her chest and vomited with a "wow".
So disgusting.
The thought that they were now trapped in the belly of some creature.
She couldn't help but feel like vomiting.
Shen Xueying ordered her sentries to break open the pipe by force, but every attack caused the passage to shake violently.
The final blow was delivered fiercely.
The hot blood splashed onto the people nearby with a "hiss".
The clothes were corroded quickly, and the skin wrapped in them also produced a burning smell.
"Damn Ji Zi! She must have done it on purpose, deliberately keeping us here!" Shen Xueying cursed.
Lin Wen looked at her and said, "Instead of blaming others for abandoning you, you should use your brain and find another way out."
"This place is weird and smelly. Does anyone know how she got out?"
Several other guides from the north heard their conversation.
He immediately began to look for a way out.
This map has a countdown.
I'm just locked up in this place, isolated from the world, and can't hear anything.
Lin Wen searched in vain and thought about approaching the guides in the north.
"Where are the other half of you? Are they trapped in here too?"
As opponents, the guides from the north were on high alert and had no intention of answering her questions.
"At least we have a guide out there. Even if he can't find a way to rescue us, Ji Zi will definitely find a way to complete the task of capturing the criminals." Lin Wen could only use Ji Zi's notoriety to intimidate, "You are doomed to fail."
"Bullshit!" As expected, someone couldn't hold back and retorted.
"Don't dream. We know you're full of tricks, so our commander has already left a team of people waiting outside. Do you think Ji Zi alone can defeat them?"
Lin Wen hid the worry in her eyes and said in a voice as arrogant as possible, "Then you just wait."
After struggling for an unknown amount of time and still not finding a way out, Shen Xueying sat down next to Lin Wen angrily.
"Do you trust her so much?"
"What else?" Lin Wen asked back.
"What if she kills all the easy-to-kill guides outside, gets the highest score in the individual competition, and then doesn't come to rescue us?"
What can I do?
Lin Wen swallowed her true emotions and looked Shen Xueying in the eyes. "In both games, she contributed the most effort in each match. She was able to get the highest score because of her own ability. What does this have to do with you?"
"Lin Wen!" Shen Xueying was so angry that she wanted to hit someone.
"It's boring to be idle. If you don't agree, let's have a fight?"
Shen Xueying calmed down instantly, stood up, pointed at Lin Wen's nose and scolded: "Just wait, you better be this tough in the individual competition."
Lin Wen ignored her.
All I could think about was what Ji Zi had just done in the stone room?
Lin Wen, who had been dubbed a genius guide in the White Pagoda in the South since childhood, couldn't help but feel a little insecure at this moment.
Winning one game can be said to be a fluke, and winning two games can be said to be opportunistic and unconventional.
But several times in a row, she experienced the double suppression of intelligence and strength from Ji Zi, a feeling she had never experienced before.
Even though Shen Xueying was in front of her, whose mental strength was one level higher than hers, Lin Wen did not think that she would definitely lose.
But facing Ji Zi, Lin Wen was no longer sure of winning.
