Chapter 775 Shadow Assassin
"Who, get out of here."
The Dark Church people shouted, and all six of them looked towards the passage where Chen Yang and his party were.
Fortunately, they had heard the discussion in front of them and hid behind the rocks. The other party looked over but could not see them.
"I'll go over and take a look."
A member of the Dark Church walked over here.
The footsteps were not fast, but they seemed to be stepping on the heart, making the heart contract and the nerves tense.
Just when Chen Yang thought that the battle was inevitable, Good reached into his arms and took out a squirrel from his arms and let it go.
The squirrel made a chirping sound, ran around in panic, rushed to the feet of the Dark Church member, and was stepped to death.
Seeing the squirrel die, Nie Wushuang frowned, with pity in his eyes, and was about to scream.
Emily quickly covered Nie Wushuang's mouth, shook her head slightly, and signaled him to be silent.
"It's a squirrel."
The people from the Dark Church who came to check breathed a sigh of relief and turned back.
"It's really strange. This place is full of rocks, airtight, and there are no trees. Where did the squirrel come from?"
"Maybe the squirrel dug a hole and drilled down."
"Forget it, let's talk about business. There are a total of eight passages, and they all converge here. I wonder if other passages have the same vicious existence as the strange bird, blocking the Maidegu family and the Wolf Castle."
"That can't be confirmed. Maybe there is nothing in those passages."
"From the footprints on the ground, someone has walked in front of us. I don't know who it is."
"No matter who it is, we must hurry as soon as possible, otherwise, the Ice Crystal Holy Grail may be taken away by them."
"Let's go, we can't waste any more time."
The footsteps gradually faded away, and the people from the Dark Church left.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Goode poked his head out and looked out, saying, "It's okay, they are all gone."
At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Nie Wushuang ran out from behind the rock where she was hiding. The first thing she did was to check on the squirrel that was trampled to death. She saw that the squirrel was crushed, and its internal organs and blood were all bursting out.
She looked back at Gude and said dissatisfiedly: "Gude, how could you do this?"
Gude frowned: "Miss Wushuang, if it weren't for this squirrel, we might have been discovered by the Dark Church."
Nie Wushuang said: "So what if they were discovered? Since we are here to find the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, we will fight them sooner or later."
Gude said: "That's right, but wouldn't it be more beneficial for us if we wait until they and the Maidegu family are both injured and then take action? So now, we have to retain our strength."
Nie Wushuang also understood that Gude was right. He said no more, dug a hole to bury the squirrel, and said: "What should we do next?"
Everyone stopped, all showing a thoughtful look.
Chen Yang lay on the stretcher and looked around.
This is a huge cave, with only scattered fluorescent grass around, which is not very bright.
It was pitch black above, and I didn't know how high it was. It was also pitch black all around, and the darkness had no end.
It seemed that this world was only black, and nothing else.
And behind them, there were eight passages.
Above the passages, it was written one, two, three... until eight.
The passage they just walked out of corresponded to the words when they entered, and it was written seven.
Obviously, after going down the well just now, any of the eight passages would converge here in the end.
What was the intention of the people who built this place?
Chen Yang figured it out quickly.
Just now, the people of the Dark Church said that they encountered a strange ferocious bird, comparable to a lower-class marquis.
In other words, each of the eight passages has different monsters guarding it to block people from entering.
Perhaps those monsters would fight each other, so the builders were placed in eight passages by them.
It is also possible that some passages are not guarded by monsters, which depends on the luck of the builders.
By the way, the dragon snake has an inner elixir, but does the ferocious bird have one?
Chen Yang's eyes lit up, and he looked back at the eight passages. From the footprints on the ground, there were footprints on both passage No. 1 and passage No. 4. He couldn't be sure which passage the Dark Church came out from.
Moreover, there was another party that was faster than the Dark Church.
A Jiaoshe inner pill allowed Chen Yang to advance from the late Baoyuan stage to the peak.
If he could get a few more inner pills, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit.
However, now is obviously not the time to take the inner pill, because the most important purpose of Chen Yang's trip is to get the Ice Crystal Holy Grail.
That thing can directly promote people to the Xiantian realm.
"There are seven passages left, maybe there are seven inner pills, I will get them all sooner or later."
Chen Yang thought to himself, and retracted his thoughts.
At this time, Good took out a compass and a flashlight, looked at the dark front, and said to everyone: "Let's go, keep moving forward."
"Yes, we have to hurry, otherwise, others will get there first."
Nie Wushuang nodded, looking a little anxious.
She had spent so much effort for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail, and she didn't want it to be snatched away by others.
The others also agreed with Goode's point of view.
However, Chen Yang shook his head and said, "Wait."
Everyone looked at him, and Goode glared at him: "What are you waiting for?"
Chen Yang ignored Goode and turned to Nie Wushuang and Emily and said, "It's pitch black here. I don't know what danger is ahead. Maybe the people of the Dark Church are lurking in the dark, waiting for us to pass by and then suddenly attack."
Goode said coldly, "Coward, if you don't dare to move forward, then go back. Anyway, we don't want to take you with us."
As he said, he turned and walked forward, saying, "Everyone follow me."
Nie Wushuang hesitated. She had no experience and didn't know how to decide.
But in the end, her desire for the Ice Crystal Holy Grail prevailed in her heart.
She said to Chen Yang, "The people of the Dark Church have been walking for twenty minutes. Although it's dark ahead, there is no movement. Let's be careful and it should be fine."
Chen Yang thought about it and said, "Okay, but you and Emily should be careful."
Hearing this, Nie Wushuang hurriedly called the two to come and carry Chen Yang's stretcher, and the group continued to move forward.
Guided by the compass, they walked in the same direction.
Although it was pitch black ahead, there were some fluorescent grass around, and with the light of the flashlight, they could see the road on the ground clearly.
After walking for about half an hour, Good looked back at Chen Yang on the stretcher, showing a smug expression on his face. He sneered and said disdainfully: "Humph, didn't you say there was an ambush? In my opinion, you are just a coward."
"Ah!"
As soon as Good finished speaking, a scream came from the crowd.
Then, a man fell to the ground.
Everyone looked and saw that the man's neck was cut open, blood was flowing, his eyes rolled back, and he was dead.
Ambush, there was indeed an ambush!
Suddenly, everyone was shocked.
Good hurriedly shouted: "Everyone be careful, it's the shadow assassin of the Dark Church."
