Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief as they watched the white-lit thick mycelium gradually wither in the foamy water at the entrance of the tunnel.
Smelling the familiar lavender aroma of the laundry detergent, everyone felt a little strange. This was the underground of the other world. They were fighting fierce battles with monsters just now, but suddenly they smelled a strong homely atmosphere.
Ji Han turned back to Eggplant and said:
"I don't know if it's good or not, but this thing is really easy to use. Fortunately, the water from outside rushed in, otherwise the liquid would still not be able to dissolve."
Although the water level inside the tunnel did not rise, the water flow outside did not stop either.
Seeing that no new hyphae were sticking out, Chen Ke asked:
"Did that big bug get washed down by the water?"
Ji Han nodded and said:
"With such a strong current, there is a crack behind the platform. I guess it was washed down."
With such a deep crack, I don't know if the corpse of the big insect will be smashed into a puddle of flesh, so those mycelium should not be able to revive it.
But it's hard to say. Who knows what is under the crack? What if it is countless hyphae? Then it is estimated that anything that goes down will be parasitized.
Will from behind asked:
"What to do next? Do we still have to wait here?"
Song Qian replied:
"What are you waiting for? Waiting for that insect to crawl up? Just wait for you, we are leaving."
With that said, he called Ji Han and others to climb up.
Song Qian's worries are justified. After all, the crack is bottomless, and the water will run out in a short time. If the bug is not washed down by then, everyone will be forced to fight again. It is still important to find a way out at this time.
Team Ethan originally followed Song Qian and the others just to see if they could get any benefits in the name of the International Alien Alliance. As a result, this trip so far has been a complete waste of money, so naturally they are not willing to let it go like this.
leave.
But here it will only increase the danger for teammates.
Seeing a few people hesitate, Eggplant turned around and said:
"You guys think about it first, I can't hold it in any longer. I need to fertilize those mycelium."
I don't know if it was because of psychological suggestion, but Eggplant, who had just been saying that the boy had peed, felt full of urge to pee.
After taking off my pants, I opened the gate and released water toward the water surface full of laundry detergent foam at the entrance of the tunnel.
When Ethan and others saw this posture, they refused to leave and could not stay here.
Everyone began to climb up the steep steps.
Just in case something unexpected happened, Ji Han, Chen Ke and Song Qian still waited for Eggplant.
The smell of urine is mixed with the scent of lavender, and the smell is really hard to describe.
Chen Ke patted the eggplant and said:
"Brother Qie, you've been a little angry lately, the smell is too strong."
Eggplant sheepishly pulled up his pants and climbed up together with everyone else.
The steps of the tunnel are very simple, but they are well protected. The explosive arrows just outside did not seem to affect this place, and there is no gravel in the tunnel.
The steep steps were a bit like the Great Wall. After turning two turns in the tunnel and climbing an unknown distance, everyone finally reached the end.
It was a sealed stone door made of a single piece of black stone, and it fit almost perfectly with the wall.
Ethan tried to push, but it felt a little difficult. He originally wanted to ask Will for help, but Eggplant climbed up bravely.
The two of them worked together to finally push the thick black stone door outward.
Just as they were about to go out, Eggplant stopped everyone:
"Hey, the two teams will leave one by one, because I'm afraid that when one team goes out, the other team will be locked down."
Ethan and others felt a little baffled when they heard it.
"You don't trust us too much?"
Eggplant lit a pipe:
"You only trust once, you are no longer trustworthy."
Ji Han, Chen Ke and Song Qian were surprised by Eggplant's attentiveness and experience.
This operation caused the loss of one member of Ethan's team. Who knows if these guys who are not very trustworthy in the first place will do something outrageous again.
At this time, there was only one step away from going out. Naturally, the people in Ethan's team did not want to cause trouble at this time, so they had no choice but to follow Eggplant's instructions and go out alone.
Everyone came outside one after another. At this time, it was just dark outside, and darkness had just begun to wrap around the earth.
When everyone turned around, they realized that the place they came out of was the black stone mountain beside Crescent Moon Spring.
At the foot of Black Stone Mountain, a heavy black stone door opens diagonally downward.
To prevent the underground mycelium from emerging from the ground, everyone worked together to close the stone door tightly again.
Without any worries, everyone finally sat down on the soft sand, which was still warm from the day.
Ethan took a breath and said:
"No matter what, if I can escape, thank you for your help."
Ethan's words were sincere. Before, he thought that the alien escorts had average abilities and limited abilities. Leading the team himself could bring them protection and gain benefits.
Who would have known that he was almost always protecting his team from the beginning to the end, and considering how cool he was when they first met, it was really embarrassing to be sent abroad.
Song Qian replied:
"Don't say anything about thanking us. How do we count the trouble your team has caused us and Will's threat to our teammates?"
Ethan didn't expect anything involving his teammates. The little girl Song Qian remembered it quite clearly, she lowered her head and said:
"I know, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter when I get back. Let's go back to the real world first."
That's right, a place like this at this time is really not the place to settle scores.
Ethan, Will, Little K and Ellie walked towards the campsite by the Crescent Moon Spring in the other world, while Ji Han's foursome followed a dozen meters behind.
Chen Ke complained:
"This wave of swimming, climbing, and fighting monsters is finally over."
Eggplant laughed and said:
"What are you talking about? We were on a sniper mission in the wild. After such a large amount of activity, we still have to fight with the enemy."
Song Qian asked in a low voice:
"Brother Han, how about the divine pillar and the mirror corner?"
Ji Han nodded and said:
"Don't worry, it's all with me."
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally a worthwhile trip.
However, Ji Han is a little curious. The game is supposedly over, so why hasn't the settlement interface appeared yet? Is the game stuck?
Just as everyone was heading towards the sandy camping site in the other world, the otherworld communication equipment on everyone finally restored the signal.
Song Qian subconsciously glanced at the information list, which was the call and text message from Ding An, the captain of the 12th team.
After clicking on the text message with a few crosses, Song Qian suddenly stood on the spot and stopped Ji Han, Eggplant and Chen Ke who were about to go to the sandy camping spot.
Just when Ji Han was about to ask what was going on, Song Qian stretched out her finger and gently pressed it on his mouth.
Then he raised his phone and showed the text message interface to everyone.
The content of the text message is very simple:
The International Alien Alliance Guards found Will's body in his home. There is something wrong with the Will you met!
At this moment, there was a sudden "boom" explosion where the four members of Ethan's group were.
