753: Chapter 753 [He’s Here] 753: Chapter 753 [He’s Here] “Impossible, they wouldn’t make such a big commotion, they must be planning to sneak away!” Hojo Hideki said.
“Let me check again.” Daifukaze continued to stare at the map.
He looked as if he had seen a ghost.
As the chief designer of this underground base, he could almost say that he had personally drawn the overall blueprint of this underground building; he couldn’t think of the fifth exit.
At that moment, Izumi Taigan stared at the map and suddenly pointed, “Could they be escaping through the sea?
That side is the sea.”
“Bullshit, how could they possibly escape through the sea?
Our underground base is completely separate from the ocean.” Hojo Hideki cursed angrily.
Scolded, Izumi Taigan immediately lowered his head.
“Got it!”
However, Daifukaze’s eyes suddenly lit up fiercely, his expression as excited as if he had discovered a new continent.
Suddenly, everyone in the room turned their attention toward him.
Especially Hojo Hideki and Izumi Taigan.
Could it be that the earlier action reminded Professor Daifukaze?
“Professor Daifukaze, did you find something?” Hojo Hideki immediately asked.
Daifukaze nodded, “If they’re escaping through the fifth place, it can only be this spot!”
“Bang!”
Daifukaze pointed harshly at a spot on the map, which happened to be the location for neutralizing the pressure of seawater, the pipeline that Ye Chenfeng and his group intended to use for their escape.
“This place?” Hojo Hideki was completely confused.
“From here, they can escape into the sea.
This pipe is used to release pressure and can also neutralize the pressure from the ocean.
It’s arguably the most ingenious part of our underground base’s construction.
If it weren’t for this young man’s reminder, I wouldn’t have thought of it,” Daifukaze said with a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, proud of his work.
“Yes, this pipe leads directly to the sea.
Just enter the control room, open the valve, and you can access the pipe.
Entering the ocean from the pipe is as easy as turning over one’s hand,” a middle-aged man said, the manager in charge of maintaining and repairing the pipe.
It was a seldom-visited part of the base due to the pipe’s stability and was overlooked by most.
Daifukaze thought for a moment and said, “I just have one question, how did they know about this location?
Could the map have leaked out?
Impossible!
There’s only one copy of the map, and there isn’t even a digital version.”
“What?
Call Lord Nogawa immediately and ask him to go there,” Hojo Hideki commanded coldly, no longer focusing on Daifukaze’s doubts.
At the same time, Hojo Hideki also hastily made a phone call.
“They won’t escape this time.
The Prince has already dispatched airplanes.
As soon as their boat appears on the sea, we will definitely sink them,” Hojo Hideki said with utmost confidence.
Meanwhile, in front of a deserted dock, a small cruise ship was quietly docked in the darkness, its lights dim perhaps for convenience.
“You’re back?
How is the boss?”
On the cruise ship were only Heavenly Eye and Phoenix’s confidants.
“He’s injured!
Hurry and carry him inside!
I’ll go support Phoenix!” Ghost Head, God of Killing, said.
Heavenly Eye nodded, “Go quickly, according to the positioning, they’ve reached the exit.”
“Okay!”
Then, Ghost Head, God of Killing, manned a speedboat, navigating to the designated area per the onboard navigation system.
“God of Killing, why are you here?” There really was only Phoenix in that part of the sea.
Upon seeing Ghost Head, God of Killing arrive, Phoenix couldn’t help but ask.
“I came for backup, and my right eyelid keeps twitching,” Ghost Head, God of Killing, expressed his ominous premonition.
“How is Shi Buddha doing?” Phoenix asked with concern.
Ghost Head, God of Killing answered, “No life-threatening danger, just heavily injured from a stab wound.”
“We need to be on our guard, Divine King and the others are about to come out!” Phoenix said gravely.
In the underground base, Ye Chenfeng and the two others reached the control room.
Yao Dao easily opened the valve.
Because a significant amount of force needed to be released, the pipe was very wide, allowing the three to easily enter.
Ye Chenfeng simply carried Chu Qingfei on his back, with Yao Dao leading and him following, the two rapidly advanced through the pipe.
As soon as they entered the pipe, a tremendous force pushed them outwards, the pressing force turning Chu Qingfei’s face deadly pale and compressing her heart and lungs.
If not for Ye Chenfeng channeling True Qi to resist for her, she might have died on the spot the moment they entered the pipe.
Ye Chenfeng had spent a lot today, he and Yao Dao had wiped out hundreds of people in one go, greatly depleting his energy, and he had lost a lot in a fight with a ninja named Kobayashi Rieko.
Now, on one hand, he had to resist this tremendous force, and on the other, he had to assist Chu Qingfei, making beads of sweat roll down Ye Chenfeng’s forehead.
At the front end of the pipe, a dark figure quietly arrived.
This person was, of course, Nogawa.
When passing the body of Kobayashi Rieko, he paused his steps.
Then Hojo Hideki received the news elsewhere, saying excitedly, “Professor Daifukaze, your prediction was indeed correct.
They are escaping through the pipe.
It’s just unfortunate that Rieko Kobayashi from Five Elements Path was killed.”
“But this time, with Nogawa following behind and our planes and ships at sea, they absolutely can’t escape.
Even if you are that man!” Hojo Hideki’s eyes emitted a chilling glow.
The pipe was long.
Initially, Ye Chenfeng and the others were basically pushed along by the huge force, but gradually, the force became smaller and smaller.
When they were about halfway through the pipe, the force even became a resistance, growing stronger as they advanced further, making moving forward very difficult, fully requiring overcoming the force to progress.
Luckily, it was Ye Chenfeng and Nogawa; had it been ordinary people, they would not only have been unable to advance but would have been pushed backwards instead.
“Open!”
With a pointed command, Yao Dao released a mighty force, dissolving the resistance in front.
This was essentially an act of over-exerting himself.
But at the moment, it was the only way to speed up.
“Hahaha…
Ye Chenfeng, you can’t escape.
The game isn’t over yet; you can’t leave,” suddenly, a taunting laugh reached Ye Chenfeng’s ears.
The sound was lessened due to the resistance, but he could still hear it clearly.
“He’s here!”
Ye Chenfeng’s heart sank.
The person he was communicating with through the phone wasn’t Izumi Taigan, but him.
Yao Dao also turned solemn.
The fact that the person could send his voice through in this environment showed how powerful he was.
Immediately, Yao Dao quickened his pace, which also meant greater exhaustion.
