I'm also desperate.
Chapter 290 Run!
Ni Dongmei's voice came again, but it was intermittent, as if the signal was bad.
"We can't get out! We can't get out of the ruins! Ni Dongmei, please help us!"
Fang Yue shouted quickly, but the meatball remained silent.
Trying to walk a few steps, looking for a better signal location, but there was no response.
The four of them couldn't help but stare at each other.
"Captain Ye, what should we do? Are we waiting for rescue here?"
"I agree! Let's just wait here. It's safe here! Who knows what the situation is in the other rooms."
"No, Brother Ye, we have to find a way out ourselves. Waiting for news from Lord Ni Dongmei, who knows how long we'll have to wait? If she could enter the ruins, she would have already entered. There's no need for her to send me here to get something."
Hearing Wei Ba's words, Hai Ming immediately changed his position: "That's right, Goddess Wei Ba is right! Let's rely on ourselves and find a way out!"
This made Liao Moran stomp her feet in anger. It seemed that no matter what Wei Ba said, she would always get an extra vote of support unconditionally. Too much of a simp!
Fortunately, the final decision-maker was Fang Yue.
The three of them looked at Fang Yue, but Fang Yue was not in a hurry to make a decision. He was still thinking.
...
Mo Village.
Qingya Inn.
"Found it! She did it! They did it!"
Ni Dongmei suddenly stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
Her brain was thinking quickly as she gnawed on her fingers.
"Is the prophecy of the Pillar of Fortune going to be fulfilled on them?"
"And that thing... that's a crucial thing! It must be brought out safely!"
"Damn it! Am I just going to wait? Just wait for them to leave the ruins! I can't even contact them again!"
Just now, she could sense the connection between that thing and the meatball, and barely broke through the blockade of the ruins for a while.
But it was useless. That little time wasn't enough to explain anything at all.
"Desolate and bizarre ruins, desolate and bizarre ruins... That guy, he's already become a desolate ghoul, why is he still so concerned about his wealth!"
The desolate and bizarre ruins are full of dangers.
The most significant characteristic is that based on the strength of the people entering the ruins, the ghost things left by Lord Mo Qing will replicate the strength of the intruders and grow rapidly.
If she were to enter the desolate and bizarre ruins, then she would have to face a replica of her full strength! Using a clone to fight against her full strength is simply courting death.
But if the intruders are only at the Houtian second-rate or Houtian third-rate level, or even those who are not ranked, then those ghost things will at most replicate the strength of the Houtian third-rate realm, and then start to increase their strength rapidly on this basis.
If there are multiple intruders, the strongest one will be used as the standard for replication.
Of course, according to the secret information of their Extreme Ice Sect, that kind of ghost thing also has a strength limit, and it will never exceed the peak strength of Lord Mo.
It's just that Lord Mo's existence, whose peak strength is far beyond what Ni Dongmei can match, so it's no different from having no limit.
If you want to bring out the desired things in such ruins, only juniors can go!
"Wei Ba, you will definitely be able to come out! I see your qualifications, and the secret techniques I taught you are also stimulating your potential. With the help of that thing, you will definitely be able to come out! Bring that thing out!"
...
Desolate and Bizarre Ruins.
After walking around the hall repeatedly and failing to contact Ni Dongmei again, Fang Yue gave up.
It seems that he still has to rely on himself.
After handing the silver ball to Wei Ba, asking her to notify him as soon as she found anything, Fang Yue led everyone back to the original bronze room.
Fang Yue thought, maybe they could go back the same way they came.
Then he jumped into the lake and swam a few laps, before going ashore in frustration.
"There are no discoveries. We can only look for new rooms to explore for an exit."
The four of them went out again. When they were in the hall before, they had already discovered that there were actually six rooms in the entire hall.
The bronze room, the water curtain room, and four other dark rooms without any lighting. Fortunately, the doors of these four rooms were open.
Thinking of the artificial anomalies he encountered before, and the many treasure chests still locked in the water curtain room, Fang Yue had a bad feeling in his heart.
Based on the bronze room, the remaining four rooms were numbered from far to near.
Fang Yue and the others walked towards the first room.
Walking into the room, the four of them tried to stay close together, using fluorescent beads for lighting.
But the strange thing was that the fluorescence emitted by the fluorescent beads could not be projected far away. It was as if the surrounding darkness could absorb light, absorbing the light from their fluorescent beads.
They continued to go deeper and soon discovered something was wrong.
"This room... is so big!"
"That's right, we've been walking in a straight line, but we haven't seen any walls or anything."
That's right, apart from the bronze ground under their feet, they couldn't see walls or other objects around them.
As they went deeper, the light from the entrance behind them gradually diminished, as if the door was about to close.
"Brother Ye?"
"Wait."
Fang Yue knew what Wei Ba meant, but he was not in a hurry to push out of the dark room, but instead activated the Liehuo Xinfa (Blazing Fire Heart Method).
Boom!!
Flames soared into the sky, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness.
In the next moment, Fang Yue and the others were stunned.
Because the dark room was very small.
Under the light of the flames burning with yangshou (lifespan) as fuel, the entire room was like daylight.
The dark room, which had felt infinitely large before, was now only a hundred square meters in size under the light.
Moreover, the room was really empty, with only bronze walls.
"This room is so small, then what were we doing just now? Walking in place?"
Fang Yue felt a chill down his spine. At this moment, Liao Moran suddenly exclaimed.
"Shadows! Captain Ye, look at the ground, our shadows!"
Shadows?
Fang Yue looked down and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He saw that his shadow seemed to have its own consciousness, struggling and biting at the connection point between the shadow and the soles of his feet.
The situation of the other three was similar. The worst was Hai Ming. His shadow had directly broken away from his body and was fleeing outwards.
With a whoosh, Hai Ming's face turned as pale as paper, and he looked up at Fang Yue and the others.
"My, my shadow, ran away!"
The three of them looked ugly. Wei Ba quickly said, "Brother Ye, put out the fire! Put out the fire! No light, no shadows!"
No light, no shadows?
Fang Yue didn't quite agree with this statement. After all, this was a bizarre world.
Maybe no light just means you can't see the shadows, but it doesn't mean the shadows don't exist!
But Fang Yue still immediately followed Wei Ba's advice and extinguished the fire.
Darkness, re-enveloped them.
Even the fluorescent beads were temporarily put away.
Perhaps it was because they couldn't see the shadows, but the three of them were obviously relieved. Only Hai Ming had a mournful face, as if he was about to cry.
"Run! Let's get out of here!"
