Chapter 311 Trapped in a Sea of Fire
Despite Lu Youyou and Wang Qiao's quick dodges, they were no match for Hei Yuan, who had been navigating dungeons for decades.
When Hei Yuan makes a move, it's always a sharp and ruthless killing blow.
As if knowing the two were going to hide to the side, the initial flames were just a decoy, and the two legs suddenly threw out dark, round balls to the sides.
Boom!
Two huge explosions.
The defensive shield that Da Rui had placed on Lu Youyou was broken.
Because Wang Qiao drank less human evolution fluid, her reaction speed was not as fast as Lu Youyou's. Hei Yuan hit her more accurately, and a single black ball broke through three layers of her defense.
"Wang Qiao! Are you alright?"
Lu Youyou asked loudly.
Before Wang Qiao could answer, Hei Yuan's arrogant voice rang out.
"That was just an appetizer. Now, prepare for the real hell, you foolish and vulnerable humans!"
With a chant filled with demonic energy and malevolence, the ground, like melting chocolate, gradually lost its support.
The little crow wanted to grow bigger and carry Lu Youyou and Wang Qiao into the air, but found that its soul power was intact but could not be released.
"what!"
Different screams merged at the same time, and everyone was falling.
Bang bang bang!
The members fell one after another, like live shrimp stuck on a baking tray. Ignoring the pain in their bodies, they bounced up suddenly, baring their teeth.
"Where am I? It's so hot! My feet are melting!"
"Sister Youyou, I just heard two explosions. Did you and Sister Qiao encounter Heiyuan?"
"So, this is Black Abyss's skill? We've never even seen Black Abyss before, yet it managed to gather us all in one place. Its power is not to be underestimated!"
A familiar, sinister voice came from above, carrying a long, hollow echo.
"You shall meet your death in this inferno! None of the humans who have opposed the Black Abyss have escaped in decades—"
At the same time, the temperature inside the cage rose, making it even more unbearable than during the hottest periods.
Everyone's face was red from the fire, their clothes were soaked, and then quickly dried by the high temperature, emitting white steam.
"Woooo..."
It's unclear who started crying, but more and more people began to sob.
Lu Youyou suppressed her anxiety and forced herself to calm down.
Yang Yan and Zhang Yuning are still outside, and since they are all in the same realm, they should be able to teleport back.
Thinking of this, Lu Youyou opened the [Guild], only to find that the "Teleport" button that used to be always lit up after the members' names had turned gray and could not be clicked at all.
Even the last words I wanted to leave for my friend couldn't be sent.
She opened her backpack slot, wanting to deploy a mobile base, but it wouldn't work.
"what!"
A painful scream drew the attention of everyone present.
Li Jinyue rolled on the ground, her hair disheveled and her face contorted, as if she were enduring a thousand times more pain than anyone else.
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, on my private territory, a blood sacrifice is required. This time, my fire has chosen that person. Kill her! Otherwise, you will all suffer the same pain as her!"
Hei Yuan's tone rose, filled with a wicked sense of amusement.
"No!"
Ding Yuxin looked at Lu Youyou pleadingly: "Sister Youyou, don't kill Jinyue! We'll definitely find a way to escape! The Black Abyss's goal is to make us kill each other!"
Zhen Lu cried and pleaded with the other gang members: "Everyone, Hei Yuan must be afraid of our combined strength, so he wants to defeat us one by one. If we kill each other, the survivors will have even less chance of escaping!"
Wang Rongrong was already crying her eyes out, and was pleading for mercy intermittently, her voice choked with sobs.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and Xiao Liu stepped forward to speak.
"I think all three of them are right. The Black Abyss is definitely afraid of the power of the whole group, which is why it made us kill each other. We must not fall for its tricks!"
Although Zhan Yu's eyes were red and he kept sniffling, which didn't seem like the behavior of a real man, his words were firm.
"Everyone came here voluntarily, didn't they all want that bottle of human evolution fluid? High rewards come with high risks. If you can't deal with the real enemy and want to hurt your own people, you've probably lost all sense of shame!"
The others also came to their senses and expressed their opinions.
"I was wrong, I'm sorry everyone. I did think about killing Li Jinyue, after all, the living have a chance to get out and can also carry on the gang's legacy. But now I've thought it through, if we're going to die, we'll die together!"
"Yes, I also thought about killing Li Jinyue, not because of a blood feud, but because she was chosen. If I were chosen, I would be willing to die. I was bullied outside before, and it was Uncle Weimin who pulled me in. It's not a loss to exchange my life, which should have died long ago, for everyone's!"
"We shared the gang's honor while we were alive, so naturally we'll die together now. Maybe we can even travel through time together after we die. Do you think we'll travel to ancient times? Could we start a rebellion and make Sister Youyou the empress?"
"Get lost! Hahahaha!"
……
Everyone tried to find joy even in their distress, afraid of being discovered to be in low spirits, and laughed with all their might.
But gradually, a chorus of wails filled the air.
Since everyone failed to kill Li Jinyue, they will share in Li Jinyue's suffering.
Lu Youyou felt as if countless red-hot irons were branding her body, or as if ant-sized centipedes were burrowing into her body at high temperatures.
Centipedes crawl into their bodies through holes and then leave through another passage.
Even though she had drunk many bottles of human evolution fluid, she still felt like she wanted to die.
What about everyone else?
What about the ordinary members who haven't even drunk a single bottle of human evolution fluid?
At first, he still had the strength to cry out in pain, but later he lay on the ground, barely breathing.
Lu Youyou pouted, and large tears fell down her cheeks.
I should have known...
I should have known better than to let these people come.
She admitted that she had the idea that there was strength in numbers, so that she could kill Hei Yuan, but innocent people died as a result.
Perhaps she had grown accustomed to the pain, or perhaps Hei Yuan had shown leniency, but Lu Youyou suddenly felt the pain in her body lessen.
Others also noticed this change.
Xiao Liu exclaimed, "I know! If this punishment is Black Abyss's skill, then it has a cooldown period, and we are currently in the cooldown period of its skill!"
Qi Yuan nodded in agreement: "I just don't know how long this cooldown period will last."
Zhang Weimin clapped his hands to encourage everyone: "Stand up, don't be discouraged! Take advantage of this time, let's unleash our skills together to attack the sky and see if we can break through the shackles!"
Everyone stand up. Those with pets should bring them out, and those without pets should bring out their most powerful ranged weapon.
"Three, two, one, fire!"
Bang bang bang!
Different skills and weapons struck the same spot in the sky.
The ground trembled as well.
"It works! It's more like a box; hitting the top moves it too! As long as we work together, we can definitely break it!"
Lu Youyou happily shared this good news with everyone.
With hope restored, people began to chant slogans and attack again.
Boom boom boom!
boom!
Boom!
The sky cracked open, and the sweltering heat inside, like a steamer, finally began to subside slightly.
This action thoroughly enraged the Black Abyss, which roared and spewed flames.
Thick, dark flames poured down from the sky, burning everyone so much that they could barely stand, and their weapons fell to the ground.
Meanwhile, the temperature in the sea of fire rose even higher.
Lu Youyou's shoes had melted, and her feet were directly in contact with the ground.
Shila-
It looks like a cooked iron plate palm.
