“A spatial rift can absorb the aura of death.”
Fang Heng walked forward and explained at the same time. He then added, “But it can’t absorb too much. It’ll be full soon.”
Since the players had stopped injecting the aura of death into the vortex, the speed of the vortex absorbing the aura of death had greatly decreased.
In addition, in the world of the vampires on the other side, the concentration of the aura of death in the dark prison of blood had also increased rapidly. The speed of the vortex absorbing the aura of death had slowed down again.
Pu Shi looked at the stone slab again, feeling that it was a pity.
The absorption efficiency of the vortex was still too low, and it had an upper limit. Otherwise, he could still rely on this vortex to do something.
Looking up, Pu Shi glanced at Fang Heng a few more times.
He was very sure that Fang Heng was not an enemy of the Necromancer a.s.sociation. If it were not for Fang Heng, everyone, including him, would have died here.
However, there must be a mole in the team.
The sudden resurrection of the King Guard was very abnormal!
Unfortunately, now was not the time to look for a mole.
Currently, the entire Necromancer a.s.sociation in the outside world was facing a great threat. They needed to leave the fallen corridor as soon as possible.
“All of you have done well.”
Pu Shi sorted out his thoughts and said to everyone in a deep voice, “The aura of death in the fallen corridor has already spread outwards. There is no point in continuing to seal it. Leave the stone slab here to slow down the aura of death from spreading outwards. We will open a special pa.s.sage to leave the fallen corridor and return to the Necromancer a.s.sociation.”
“Yes!”
They could finally get out!
After narrowly escaping death and receiving an affirmative answer from Teacher Pu Shi, the players could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
“Everyone, step back a little.”
Pu Shi walked into the hall alone to check.
At the center of the magic array in the central hall, the aura of death continued to spread outwards through the cracks in the central floor.
As the entire central magic array had been completely corroded and rendered ineffective, Pu Shi was unable to activate it through conventional means.
Pu Shi carefully inspected it and carefully walked to the right corner of the hall.
He crouched down and stretched out his hand to press on the corroded magic array, injecting his aura into it.
“Chi Chi Chi…”
The floor quickly corroded and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, emitting a “Chi Chi” sound.
Very quickly, the floor melted and a huge hole was formed.
He stuck his head out to look at the bottom of the hole, and a staircase leading to the bottom appeared before everyone’s eyes.
It was the exit!
The players’ faces were filled with joy.
“Let’s go.”
Pu Shi said as he gestured for everyone to follow him into the underground pa.s.sage.
Fang Heng glanced at the stone slab left in the room.
He deliberately stayed at the back of the team. When he left, he waved his hand at the stone slab.
Eh? He couldn’t fit it into his backpack?
Was it because there was a magic array engraved on it?
Forget it, he decided not to retrieve the stone slab since it was too heavy to carry.
In a while, the energy stored in the stone slab will be exhausted, and the spatial breach will close by itself.
Fang Heng could only leave the stone slab behind.
They entered the emergency escape pa.s.sage through the hole. The players didn’t say a word and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
After being locked up for nearly a month, they could finally walk out of the fallen corridor, but the players’ mood was still not very good.
The situation outside was also extremely dangerous.
More than half of the magic arrays that suppressed the death realm crevice had been destroyed, and the fallen corridor had also been destroyed. If it really exploded, perhaps the entire Necromancer a.s.sociation would be destroyed along with it!
Qian Yaoyun, who was with the team, was even more uneasy than the others.
Bad news came one after another!
Not only did Pu Shi not die, he had even successfully advanced into a lich and obtained the Shrine of Bones!
There was also Fang Heng!
He did not die in the fallen corridor as he had planned!
Qian Yaoyun had always known that Fang Heng signified big trouble, but he did not expect him to be this troublesome.
He had not expected things to develop to this stage. He found an opportunity to quickly send a message to the twelve corporations through his journal.
Fang Heng followed behind the team.
It was a matter of life and death just now, so he didn’t have time to think too much. Now that the crisis was over, he also felt a little uneasy.
The magic array of the Necromancer a.s.sociation had been destroyed, and the aura of death had been leaked. The real world was definitely in chaos now.
The real world was a great opportunity for the people of the twelve corporations to invade the real world.
If it were him, he would definitely make a move.
He just didn’t know how far the twelve corporations had progressed in their preparations.
Also, Mo Jiawei hadn’t come back since he went offline last time. He probably encountered something and couldn’t get away.
Could it be vampires?
He shouldn’t be so unlucky, right?
Fang Heng was pondering when he noticed that the team had stopped in front.
Instructor Pu Shi had already brought the player team to the end of the emergency escape pa.s.sage.
In front of them, a pitch-black metal door blocked the way.
Pu Shi walked forward and placed his hand on the metal door.
A black aura rapidly spread out in all directions with Instructor Pu Shi’s palm as the center.
Dense black runes appeared on the door.
“Ka Ka Ka…”
The mechanism was triggered, and the black bronze door slowly opened.
Fang Heng stared at the door and could not help but raise his eyebrows.
Behind the door, a large number of high-tier players from the Federation wearing uniforms blocked the door.
They raised their vigilance as if they were facing a great enemy. They carefully looked at the players of the Necromancer a.s.sociation in the pa.s.sage.
When the players of the Necromancer a.s.sociation saw such a formation, they also took out the Book of the Dead and followed behind Instructor Pu Shi.
“Pu Shi.”
Xi Yongzhi looked at Pu Shi and he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he made it in time.
After Xi Yongzhi received the news from Qian Yaoyun, he immediately gathered his federal team and rushed over.
There was a huge change in the plan!
Fang Heng actually didn’t die and was able to leave the fallen corridor!
What was even more troublesome was that Pu Shi had successfully advanced to become a lich and even obtained the Shrine of Bones.
Shrine of Bones!
It was something that the twelve corporations had always wanted to obtain.
If they could obtain it..
It would be a great achievement!
Xi Yongzhi pondered in his heart as he looked at Pu Shi, he said, “This is the first time we’ve met. I’m Xi Yongzhi, an investigator from the Central Federation. We suspect that you’re related to the anti-federation forces, Night Owl, who destroyed the death realm crevice this time. In addition, you’re also to blame for opening the emergency pa.s.sage of the fallen corridor without the Federation’s permission and causing the aura of death to leak out.”
Pu Shi frowned. He swept his gaze across the Federation members gathered at the front.
He had previously heard about Xi Yongzhi from the necromancy attendants.
He was a high-level investigator sent by the direct subordinates of the Central Federation some time ago to deal with related matters.
“Pu Shi, please come back with us to receive the Federation’s investigation.”
The player from the Necromancer a.s.sociation did not have a good impression of the Central Federation. Hearing Xi Yongzhi’s words, they were instantly enraged.
What kind of joke was this? Teacher Pu Shi had something to do with the anti-federation forces?!
“Bullsh*t! It was Teacher Pu Shi who brought us out of the fallen corridor! How could he have anything to do with the anti-federation forces?!”
