The strange silence and the faint barking of the dogs made everyone nervous, and it was difficult to keep calm.
The dark and tense atmosphere was wearing away at people’s patience. Number one and number five wished they could grow wings at this moment and fly to the exit of the mountain range to complete the trial and leave the scene.
The two of them were somewhat uneasy. Although everyone had escaped, this was the undead race’s base camp. Once they discovered that someone had escaped, they would definitely chase after them.
Although the team had the advantage in numbers, ordinary people would not be able to fight back against the undead at all. Moreover, due to the large number of people, the team’s progress was slow.
On the other hand, the undead beastmen and Giants were tall and strong, and they would catch up to them soon with their ferocious two-headed dogs.
Number one couldn’t help but go forward to explore the way, but he couldn’t find the direction or exit in the surroundings. It was foggy and he didn’t know which direction to go. Moreover, he was afraid of getting lost if he went too far.
Thus, the two of them became even more worried after several failed explorations.
“I’m just worried …” After number five said this, he paused for a moment with worry, after the undead race finds out, they’ll chase after us, and then …
In the dark, song qingxiao could feel him looking up at her.
She knew what he was going to say. Number five was just worried that the scene of him being chased by the two-headed dog and the giant in the bloody tunnel would happen again.
Back when the trial-takers were being chased down along with the fugitives in the bloody tunnel, it was only through their combined efforts that they managed to kill the giant and force the two-headed dog to retreat.
However, number four was dead, and number six and seven had parted ways with the rest. They were no longer the same people, and only three of the seven trial-takers remained.
If they were attacked from both sides again, No. 6 and No. 7, who might not be on the same side, would stop them from escaping.
“Number three…” The more number five thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Thus, he turned around to discuss with song Qing.
“Shh!” As he spoke, song qingxiao’s divine sense seemed to have caught a trace of movement.
The two-headed dog, which had been barking non-stop earlier, now barked even more sharply. The terror Battalion seemed to be in turmoil.
Number Five’s expression changed, and he didn’t dare to make a sound.
Her primordial spirit sensed her thoughts and released her divine sense. The voice was transmitted into her consciousness even more clearly. There was a continuous ‘dang dang’ sound among the beastmen’s roars and dog barks, as if a cage had been broken.
Just as she retracted her divine sense, an earth-shaking roar sounded,
“Roar!”
This time, she didn’t need to say anything, number five also heard it clearly!
This roar was different from the angry roar from before. When it traveled over from afar, it still carried a powerful force that shook people’s hearts, causing them to tremble with fear.
“We’ve been discovered?” Number five asked in a hoarse voice.
“Let’s go!” run! song qingxiao shouted in a low voice. The team, which was moving slowly, seemed to have regained their strength the moment the roar rang out. They started running again.
However, what surprised song qingxiao was that the commotion in the terror Battalion did not die down quickly. Instead, it became more and more intense.
The beastmen’s roars and the two-headed dogs ‘pursuit and the clanging of objects rang in their ears. It was as if someone had caused trouble there and caused the undead to hunt them down.
However, other than the undead, the terrorizing Battalion only held humans who had long lost their will to resist.
Other than himself, participant No. 1, participant No. 5, and the other two, who else would dare to cause such a huge commotion in the terror Battalion?
While song qingxiao was running, a thought flashed through her mind. Before she could catch it, number one shouted in surprise,”
“I’ve found something!”
Number five, who was running with his head down, was overjoyed when he heard this.
Ever since the previous roar, he had been acting like a snake. The sound of the wind in his ears sounded like the footsteps of pursuers. Now that he heard that there was a way ahead, he was overjoyed and hastened his steps.
The person in front seemed to have entered the middle of the mountain, his footsteps echoing.
The mountainside was narrow at first, but after walking for about three to four minutes, it suddenly opened up.
Some unknown crystals on the stone wall above his head emitted a faint light and shadow, and he could vaguely see the surrounding environment.
At this moment, song Qing’s small nose smelled a fishy smell. As the cold wind blew over, it made his scalp numb and uncomfortable.
This smell was not just the smell of blood, but also a mixture of rancid smell, accompanied by a ‘hissing’ sound.
The further they walked, the more they smelled a damp and rotten smell of the air that had not circulated for many years. The fishy smell became more obvious, and the hissing sound became louder. It was like a huge ensemble of several sounds, so noisy that it made people dizzy and their ears ring.
The voice was as dense as a drizzle, and it was continuous. Suddenly, a voice rang out in song Qing’s small mind,”
■After leaving the terror Battalion, we will reach the snake cave’.
She recalled the words of the old man on the altar. From the sound and smell, number one’s discovery ahead was most likely the snake cave!
“Snake cave!” There was joy in her eyes, and the words she said were heard by number five, who was running.
If the snake cave was really ahead, it meant that a ‘guide’ was needed to escape from the terror Battalion.
This also proved that they had all escaped from the terror Battalion and had taken the right path!
As soon as she finished speaking, number one’s trembling voice rang out from the mountainside, “
No. 3, come and take a look. There, there, there, there are so many snakes …
A snake… A snake … A snake…’
Number one’s voice was not loud, but the mountainside was like a natural loudspeaker, amplifying his voice.
In addition to the strange silence of the others, number one’s exclamation was extremely piercing.
The group that was moving forward seemed to have encountered the most obstacle and stopped.
Song qingxiao and number five squeezed through the crowd and saw number one standing at the front of the group. He had a sad face and a huge pit in the direction he pointed.
The pit was dozens of meters deep, and the two banks were about a hundred meters apart.
The two sides were hidden in the darkness, and their exact positions could not be seen. It was like an extremely large chasm, blocking everyone’s way out of the terror Battalion.
At the bottom of the pit were countless snakes of all sizes. They raised their heads and coldly looked at the escapees standing by the pit, hissing and flicking their tongues.
As the snake wriggled, one could vaguely see the piles of corpses that had not completely rotted. Maggots crawled on them and they emitted a foul smell.
“What do we do?”
Number one asked with a tingling scalp. He had yet to retract his hand.
Not to mention whether these snakes were poisonous or not, just the number of them was daunting.
The snakes were densely packed, and at a glance, it was like a sea of snakes with no end in sight.
There was no suspension bridge here, and there were no tools to cross. Unless they had wings, even someone as strong as song qingxiao would not be able to jump over on their own..
