The surrounding walls have completed their movement and are completely closed without any gaps. However, the path under his feet is still incomplete, and the stone bricks under his feet are constantly moving forward and sinking downwards.
The pressure in front of him was getting stronger and stronger, and Hero had no choice but to stab the wall with his spear, trying to hang himself with the tip of the spear to wait for the floor tiles on the road to finish moving.
As the stone bricks slowly descended to the bottom, Hero could no longer avoid the powerful pressure escaping from every corner.
He gritted his teeth slightly, his body became a little stiff in the face of this pressure, and his movements became a little slower.
It's not the body that's affected, but the soul.
His mind and control of his body were slowed down by the oppression of his soul.
Guchiguchi?!
The octopus cub, who shared the same soul, also felt the powerful sense of oppression at this time.
It had just spent all its efforts to protect Holo from escaping, but now it was a little unable to handle it.
Before Holo could agree, he curled up from the top of his head and slipped into Holo's robe, getting into the mark under Holo's collarbone.
"With this kind of coercion, I don't even have the slightest desire to see it."
Hero finally used [Exponential Explosion] to amplify the distortion force field and push the pressure out of his soul. He took a deep breath and no longer had the desire to explore forward.
Because he knew that he was definitely no match for the unknown lord at the end of darkness.
It would be a foolish dream for him and Byrne to monopolize this place.
Neither the life map nor the ruins of the main city can be contaminated by them.
The best thing to do is to go back and shake off the talents. At the worst, you can sell the information here to those organizations. By the way... you have to ask the mentor to take away the living figures before selling. The most precious thing about this site is the stone carvings.
So Holo began to explore in the opposite direction of the coercive aura.
He wants to leave here.
The further away from the ‘abyss’ at the bottom, the better.
…
"Jige, are you sure there are baby birds here? We don't accept your soul coins. If you dare to lie to us, we will let you know what cruelty is!"
"That's right, I really didn't expect that there is such an ancient building deep in the snowfield, but why didn't I see the baby bird you mentioned? Besides, your companion got the golden key reward. After this period of digestion, he is definitely strong.
It’s gone up a lot, so I can’t guarantee that I won’t have a backup plan to deal with you, don’t lead us into a pit!”
Jiger held a brass compass in his hand, and the pointer in the middle of the compass was slowly moving.
Hearing the distrustful complaints from his companions, he said rather disdainfully.
"Don't worry, my teammate is just a lucky fool. He foolishly thought that I didn't notice that I was being watched. He has been spying on my movements during this period, and his previous movements were all to deceive him.
Yes, he has been prepared secretly for a long time. If he hadn't been too confident and let down his guard, and the tracking mark I had planted, it would have been really difficult for him to follow him."
Everyone on the side looked at Jige smiling evilly, and they couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.
If you are a fool, then who are you?
If his strength is poor, he is not as good as others. The soul magician has never pinned his hopes on the lucky bitch.
Although everyone thought so in their hearts, no one said it out loud.
They only have a cooperative relationship with Jiger, and from a certain point of view, it was Jiger who humbly begged them to cooperate.
If it weren't for the safe methods shown by Jiger, they would not be willing to offend an apprentice who received a golden key reward.
In this cruel group of apprentices, most of the people who communicate with each other are apprentices of the same level or stronger. No one can guarantee whether Byrne has also invited his companions to explore here.
What's more, there are all apprentices here who can survive the evaluation and assessment, but they are no longer stupid.
No one is willing to stand out for something so obviously offending.
The silence of several people made the atmosphere somewhat solidified. After a while, one of the active apprentices spoke teasingly.
"Hey, what are you waiting for? There are so many of us, but we are still scheming intentionally or unintentionally. Maybe we can get the reward from his golden key."
Jige thought for a while, glanced at the crowd, and made a decision immediately.
"Originally I didn't want to cause any complications. I just wanted to take the wings of the baby bird and leave. But since everyone is interested in Byrne, let's... find a way to fuck him!"
Of course he knows that several people have ulterior motives, but so what, he is self-aware, and he will not kill his teammates like Byrne who wants everything.
That will only attract jealousy and create enemies hidden in the dark for no reason.
Just like the current scene, regardless of whether they recognize Byrne or not, they all want to kill Byrne, drain him of his heritage, and get a piece of the pie.
And he believes that as long as everyone gets the benefits they want, the next cooperation will definitely proceed smoothly.
"Follow my footsteps, Byrne is right in front, very close... very close!"
Jiger no longer hesitated and greeted a few people, while he walked in front with a brass compass.
Soon they passed through the outermost guard area, followed the path that Hero and Byrne had walked, and went deep into the city.
And because of Hero's previous actions of purifying all the baby birds, they did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
…
On the other side, Hero, who was exploring a way out, circled back to the starting point again.
"The space here is too weird. The feedback is obviously that it is going outside, but why is it back here?"
Hero frowned and thought, the current environment was exactly the same as the one when he set out.
What really convinced him was the pressure escaping from the front.
"Are we going to be trapped here?"
If this place is blocked due to rules, you will definitely not be able to get out, and the only chance of escape will be until the next time the building is moved.
But just when he compromised and was about to recuperate for a while, there was a vibration above his head.
'who is it?'
Could it be that bloated monster is chasing me?
Holo is a little sensitive. The environment here is too depressing, especially when the building walls are closed and it is impossible to explore very far.
The spear was pointed upward, and he was fully alert to the danger that might appear at any time.
But as a gust of green wind appeared, Hero put down the stone he was thinking of.
It's Byrne!
He's here!
The wind that suddenly appeared in the darkness wrapped around Hero's wrist, and a slight pulling force appeared.
It's guiding Hero's direction.
But this direction is where the pressure comes from.
"The way out is where the lord is?!"
He hesitated, but the flow on his wrist seemed to be very urgent, pulling him forward very urgently.
Hero mobilized his soul energy, adjusted his own condition, twisted the force field to open a path, and moved forward in the direction guided by the wind.
Feng Liu's urgent guidance made him wonder if Byrne had encountered difficulties along the way.
If everything was normal, Byrne should have found it himself instead of letting Feng Liu guide him.
