"Ahhhhhh......" The screams echoed throughout the Chaotian Pavilion.
"Smash..." The researcher plummeted from such a height. After all, they were ordinary people. Only the sound of flesh meeting the ground could be heard from below.
Zuo Shendian glanced at the equipment still in operation.
High-tech Door Breaker
Breaching Progress: 96%
Door Frame Damage Progress: 94%
Drill Bit Wear Remaining: 32%
"Not bad. You, continue operating. As usual, is the time of one incense stick enough for this breaching progress?" Zuo Shendian pointed at a regular armed personnel squatting by the door.
"Ah..... Yes, Lord Zuo Shendian." He picked up the door breaker and continued the operation.
The time of one incense stick quickly passed.
The door was then pushed open.
The armed personnel holding the door breaker was the first to enter and was stunned speechless by the magnificent sight within.
"Get down here!" Zuo Shendian shouted at the armed personnel. At this moment, the personnel was lost in amazement and did not heed Lord Zuo Shendian's command.
"Is it good-looking?"
"Mmm... good-looking." Only then did the armed personnel notice that Lord Zuo Shendian was standing behind him.
"I... I... Lord Zuo Shendian, I apologize. It was my dereliction of duty." The armed personnel said, trembling with fear.
Zuo Shendian's hand suddenly rested on his head, stroking it. A trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes.
"It's fine. Pay attention in your next life."
"Bang."
The sound of a watermelon exploding was heard. Outside the Tongtian Pavilion, a headless armed guard fell to the ground.
"Clear the way!" Ordinary armed personnel began to climb up from behind.
Accompanying medical staff quickly came up to deal with the body, fearing that any delay would offend Lord Zuo Shendian's eyes.
Twelve armed guards, protected by two Golden Core stage experts, also gradually approached the entrance of the Tongtian Pavilion.
As the line of sight narrowed, the main gate of the Tongtian Pavilion was surprisingly open.
Seeing this, the armed guards immediately jogged back to report.
"Reporting to Lord Zuo Shendian, the gate of Tongtian Pavilion is open!!!"
"What??? Did someone get here before us? All Thirteen District members, advance immediately!" Zuo Shendian gave the order.
Instantly, all the armed personnel behind him rushed to the front, followed closely by the martial artists.
"The first floor is empty..."
"The second floor is empty..."
"The third floor is empty..."
"The fourth floor is also empty..."
"Report! A damaged secret passage was found on the fifth floor."
The Thirteen District personnel who entered for inspection immediately returned and reported their findings.
Seeing that nothing unusual had happened, Zuo Shendian entered the room to find a scene of disarray.
From the first to the fifth floor, everything had been turned upside down. On the third floor, there was even a large, foul-smelling mass that looked like excrement.
"Damn it! Someone entered before us. Hurry up and go in. It's not bad to take advantage of the situation." Zuo Shendian said and was the first to climb into the secret passage.

"Brother Chen Fan, we're here." As the last member of the group walked into the safe zone on the other side, the stone figures that should have been in pursuit abruptly stopped, freezing in place. The heavy arrows that had been fired also vanished.
"That was close. Fortunately, we made it." Chen Fan had used a lot of his True Qi to protect everyone and had to frantically kill the stone figures rushing from the exit. He had exhausted too much True Qi and stamina.
"Zhan Nian, Chris, tally the casualties for me," Chen Fan said.
Bai Zhannian also looked exhausted but began to count the numbers without complaint.
After an incense stick's time.
"Brother Chen Fan, we lost 12 people in total, with twenty-four remaining," Bai Zhannian said.
"Thank you. You have truly endured. I failed to protect everyone," Chen Fan said with some self-blame.
"Brother Chen Fan, it's not your fault. It's us, lacking strength, who came to this ancient tomb. We don't blame you. Thank you for letting us witness what a true powerhouse is like." The members of the Knights of the Dead, who met Chen Fan during this incident, were somewhat moved. After all, Chen Fan was the one who protected them with all his might, yet he was also the one who blamed himself despite his best efforts. How could this not move the surviving members of the Knights of the Dead?
"Alright, no more sadness. For the sake of these fallen brothers, we must take the items and walk out alive." Chen Fan felt a touch of emotion seeing these members of the Knights of the Dead. He didn't say much more. Although they wouldn't have much interaction in the future, he was determined to escort them out safely this time.
After speaking, he was about to step into a new tomb passage when a voice from behind called out, "Wait!!!"

Chen Fan turned his head: "Oh, it's Lord Zuo Shendian..."
"Chen Fan, you killed Lie Shan and injured so many of my armed personnel. Do you think you can escape?" Zuo Shendian said, looking at Chen Fan with rage.
"Who the hell are you talking to like that, acting so defiant with your dad?" Chen Fan retorted as he turned back.
"Very well! Chen Fan, you're even colluding with people from the Knights of the Dead. When I catch you, I will tear you to shreds."
At this moment, the Thirteen District personnel also began to arrive, which gave Zuo Shendian a sense of reassurance.
At a glance, Chen Fan's side only had a little over 30 people.
Whereas his side had hundreds of people. Of course, this was what Zuo Shendian was thinking internally.
"Come over here first, Brother Zuo." Chen Fan continued to provoke, fanning Zuo Shendian's anger into stepping into the passage filled with the heavy scent of water.
Hearing Chen Fan's words, Zuo Shendian, who was already furious, was about to step forward when he was stopped by a high-ranking Knight of the Dead standing beside him.
