Chapter 290 Falling into a Trap?
Is this some kind of underground deal?
"I'll count to three, then you can escape. There's plenty of room to hide underground. Good luck."
The androgynous voice reached everyone's ears.
Everyone's looking at each other, seemingly picking out the weakest one to take down first.
Those assassins also carried all sorts of weapons, such as knives, spears, swords, halberds, and meteor hammers.
There are also two rows of weapon racks on the side for players to choose from.
Those closest to the weapon racks were the first to rush forward.
They carried weapons they found convenient, mostly guns and knives, with Chu Yu and Qi Zexuan following behind.
They slowly moved closer to the weapon rack, since they hadn't brought their personal weapons with them when they came in.
Qi Zexuan and Chu Yu touched two relatively sturdy knives, pressed tightly together, but the number of people on the stage was still not counted.
The audience was starting to get nervous; some people's hands were shaking with anxiety.
Some people were sweating nervously, while others looked confident of victory.
"We'll run down that path in a bit; I think the candles are all tilting."
"This means there's a ventilation shaft over there, which might lead to the ground."
When he first came in, I carefully observed his insightful abilities, which were quite remarkable.
"Good, she truly is my future wife."
Even in this moment of crisis, Qi Zexuan couldn't resist making a joke.
It seems he's played far more expensive games before; in his eyes, these are all trivial matters.
"Three...two...one!" The voice was drawn out as if it was testing their patience.
As soon as the word "one" was uttered, the person who had been holding the weapon for a long time slashed at the person next to him.
In an instant, several people were locked in a chaotic battle, while the assassins seemed to be watching the show from the sidelines.
Some even crossed their arms over their chests, waiting for them to kill each other so they could stalk the cicadas from behind.
After hearing the words, Chu Yu grabbed Qi Zexuan and ran towards the large building.
The essence of hide-and-seek is simply hiding.
What's the point of fighting them here, especially since they're all innocent people?
Several assassins noticed their movements.
These two are somewhat interesting; instead of fighting with them, they run away and hide.
It's rare to encounter someone with intelligence. The assassins exchanged glances, and some even seemed to want to slack off.
Does that mean you should go or I should go?
Finally, two people couldn't stand it anymore and chased after the two of them.
The killers here are all amateurs.
If only two people come, they won't be able to do anything to Chu Yu and Qi Zexuan.
Unfortunately, many traps were installed underground.
Before they could run two steps, many arrows shot out from the wall ahead.
Chu Yu reacted quickly, grabbing Qi Zexuan and spinning him around several times, the arrows narrowly missing them.
But they didn't hit them at all.
This actually stopped the pursuing assassins halfway through their journey; they waited there until the construction was completed before giving chase.
One of them even complained, "Why set up so many traps here? They could easily hurt our own people."
Chu Yu and Qi Zexuan ran forward, and no one stopped them.
When they looked back, the two assassins were still quite far away.
Qi Zexuan pulled Chu Yu to slow down.
Looking back, the two assassins seemed to have no intention of chasing them, and were just walking slowly behind them.
That's strange. Logically speaking, the assassins should have killed them as soon as possible.
But they continued forward, as darts were shot from the walls and poisonous smoke billowed from the ground.
Overall, the passage was straight and safe.
The further they went, the more light they could see. Chu Yu felt that her analysis was correct.
There must be an exit leading to the ground ahead, otherwise why would there be wind?
The wind blowing was incredibly cold, it felt like it was seeping into my bones.
Upon closer inspection, one can detect a scent similar to that of Xiangnu.
They went inside anyway; it was another small hall.
There were several large pools inside, and there were people soaking in them, but judging from their chests rising and falling, they were still alive.
Suddenly a voice rang out: "I didn't expect anyone to come here. Didn't those traps stop you?"
They were completely unfamiliar with the voice, but the aroma was very familiar.
It turns out that all that talk about the aroma from childhood to adulthood is a lie; it's all artificially created through pickling.
“You’ve come here, and even if you don’t leave alive, you’ll never get out unless we turn you into incense slaves.”
"But are you, beneath those masks, qualified to become perfume slaves?"
Upon hearing this, a dozen or so men in black, all wearing identical masks, surged out from the surrounding area.
We couldn't see what their expressions were like either.
However, Chu Yu could clearly feel the murderous aura emanating from him. Qi Zexuan glanced at Chu Yu, and this was the exit she thought he had found.
This is more like a tiger's mouth!
The two exchanged a glance and prepared to run back, but the two assassins, who were in the distance, did not come over.
They probably knew this place was forbidden. Good heavens, we're truly surrounded by wolves behind and tigers in front!
It's safer to run back. No matter how strong these dozen or so people are, they can't fight off four legs with just their bare hands!
Without hesitation, they turned and ran back, with a dozen or so people chasing after them.
The two people in front of them gradually approached. The other broken weapons were fine, but the meteor hammer could be used at both close and long range. With one swing, it separated the two of them.
Chu Yu's duty is to protect Qi Zexuan and Qi Zeyun.
Therefore, she decided to turn around and face the battle head-on, at least letting Qi Zeyun run out to report the news first.
But how could Qi Zexuan let Chu Yu stay alone?
He tossed the scabbard aside, held the knife in his hand, and his eyes gleamed coldly.
He took two steps forward, leaped up, and slashed directly at a person's neck.
This seems to be just a large group with a lot of people, but their actual fighting ability doesn't seem to be high.
Seeing one person fall to the ground, the others seemed to show little emotion.
Just like robots, continue to surround them!
"Don't linger, let's keep running back!"
After listening, Qi Zexuan kicked another person in the chest, sending the person staggering back two steps.
But they continued their relentless pursuit. The two assassins in front of them were somewhat intimidated by this scene, not expecting these two to be so strong.
Moreover, they ran over extremely fast, and the knives in their hands had no eyes; if they injured or maimed someone, that was their own business!
He valued his life, and when he saw the two of them running over, he leaned against the wall.
To everyone's surprise, there seemed to be the sound of gears turning in the wall, and then the floor sank down, revealing a large hole.
Chu Yu and Qi Zexuan couldn't stop in time and fell into the dark hole with a scream.
The two assassins accidentally triggered the mechanism, and all the men in black gathered around to watch.
We looked at each other; they didn't even know there was such a place here.
The incense maker sighed; this was where he usually dealt with defective products.
There are two tigers feeding below. If these two people fall in, they probably won't survive!
