Number one cursed and vomited a few more times until his stomach was empty and he felt that he couldn’t vomit anymore. He then raised his head and asked with tears in his eyes, “”Do you have water?”
“No, I didn’t!” Song Qing turned his head away, breaking his hope.
He got up from the ground with tears in his eyes and saw the body of the orc twitching by the pool.
One of the Beastman’s arms was frozen, and it was obvious that it was song Qing’s doing.
The Beastman’s head that had been slapped off was floating in the middle of the pool. It had already been flipped over, causing waves of ripples. Even the corpses floating around it were also sinking.
When number one asked the question and song qingxiao answered that it was the water from the decaying pool, number one was already mentally prepared for the stench in his mouth.
However, knowing it and seeing it with his own eyes were two different things. When he saw the appearance of the pool water, he broke down again. He turned around and kicked the orc’s corpse a few times.
“You’re lucky you died early!”
He was still angry after kicking the orc, so he bent down and lifted the orc’s legs. He tried to push the orc’s heavy body into the pool as he called number five,”
“Number five, come and help me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, number five was obviously angry. He grabbed the orc’s arm, pressed his shoulder against the orc’s waist, and pushed with number one. The orc’s body fell into the pool with a plop.
Song qingxiao looked at them speechlessly, hurry up! Don’t waste any more time!
The pool was stirred, and the sediments at the bottom of the pool floated up again. The water splashed everywhere, and the stench spread out. The three of them covered their mouths and noses at the same time, fleeing in all directions in a panic to avoid these stinky water droplets.
Song qingxiao looked at the two of them coldly. Number one pinched his nose, not daring to meet her eyes.
“Where is this place?” He didn’t dare to breathe too loudly. He pursed his lips and asked softly,”
aren’t we going back to the terror Battalion to save those who have escaped?”
As he spoke, he looked around. Within his line of sight, there were only three participants and one Beastman killed by song qingxiao. There were no other survivors.
However, when they came out of the undead altar, there were clearly three or four other escapees on the same path. Where did those escapees go?
Where was this place? Why did he appear here the moment he stepped out of the undead altar?
Where did number six and seven, who had come in this direction before everyone else, go? The undead altar was only one step away from this place, but why didn’t they hear anything when they were standing on the other side of the black fog?
Number one and number five were filled with doubts. Song qingxiao let out a long breath of turbid air and kicked the broken bones buried in the ground beside her feet.
“We might already be in the terrorist camp.”
She repeated her previous guess, and this time, number one and number five heard it clearly. The two of them were stunned at first, and then their expressions changed greatly.
“He’s in the terrorist camp?” Number one said in shock,” that’s impossible!
Number Five’s expression was grave as well, didn’t the escapees say that there are several checkpoints between the terror Battalion and the undead altar where they are being held?”
Furthermore, after they entered the trial, they had personally escaped from the bloody tunnel, experienced the giant’s sniping, and crossed the suspension bridge to reach the undead altar.
After the undead altar was reversed, the group chose to turn back. Even if they wanted to return to the terror Battalion, it would not be so fast, right?
It was as if the undead altar and the terror Battalion were only separated by a wall, and they arrived in the blink of an eye.
“What about the refugees?” When number five asked this question, the three of them subconsciously looked back at the big cauldron in the middle. The water inside was boiling, and fresh traces of slaughter were placed beside it.
“It can’t be…” Number one mumbled. His stomach, which had finally calmed down, started to churn again.
Song qingxiao walked straight to the big cauldron, where large pieces of meat were cooking. A huge wooden spoon hung beside it.
Blood-stained flesh and blood were scattered around the cauldron, and a few heads were mixed in, emitting a strong and nauseating smell of blood.
The ground was covered with gnawed bones. Without looking, they could guess what was being cooked in the pot.
Song qingxiao recalled the words of the fugitive. The undead would attack human territory every ten years, capture humans as food, and lock them up in terror camps.
The shock of hearing that humans were food was far less than the shock of seeing it with their own eyes.
Number one’s face began to Twitch. Number five clenched his fist. Song qingxiao was silent for a moment. She picked up the huge spoon beside the pot and began to bend down to search for the heads mixed in the residue.
There were about seven or eight human heads in the pile of broken bones, mixed with the bones of some unknown animals. She rummaged through it a few times, threw the spoon away, and said calmly,”
“It’s not those escapees.”
Number one was dumbfounded as he looked at her actions. After hearing what she said, he said in surprise,”
“How can you be so sure?”
These heads were covered in sand and blood, making it difficult to distinguish their original appearance.
their ages are not the same. The person we were talking to was an old man, and he was as thin as a stick. None of the skulls matched the physical characteristics of an elderly person.
That old man had been caught for thirty years. At this age, he should have a set of life-saving skills.
But this was where the problem lay. It had only taken the blink of an eye to get here from the undead altar.
The old man in the group of escapees was old and weak, and the others were almost exhausted. It was impossible for them to move so quickly and hide.
Song Qing tilted her head.
“There’s another suspicious point.” A moment ago, he was still at the undead altar, but the next moment, song Qing realized that he had been grabbed by the Beastman and pressed into the pool.
However, she had no memory of how she was caught. This was too strange.
“This kind of situation is a bit like when we first entered the trial.”
Every time they entered a trial scene, other than the mission clues provided in the sea of consciousness, the trial-taker had to explore the rest by himself.
Trial-takers who had just entered the trial might encounter all kinds of unexpected situations, just like when they appeared in the blood tunnel and were chased by the two-headed dog.
What she said made some sense. Otherwise, it couldn’t explain why they appeared here the next moment after stepping out of the undead altar and were pressed into the pool of corpses by the orcs.
It also couldn’t explain why the escapees who followed the three of them had disappeared without a trace in such a short time.
Number one’s expression was uncertain. He stood in front of the boiling cauldron and asked,”
“According to what you’re saying, what we experienced before was just an illusion?”
If what song qingxiao said was true, and everyone had only truly entered the mission at this time, then everything that they had done before, including sneaking into the group of escapees, escaping the bloody tunnel, forcing the two-headed dog to retreat, killing the giant, and breaking into the undead altar, were all fake?
