"Where's the researcher?" Zhou Yu didn't seem to be shaken by the scene in front of him.
Wu Yun raised his wrist and glanced at it. He changed the angle and seemed to be adjusting the position.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yu asked.
"According to the distance and direction … he seems to be inside Elpis …" Wu Yun frowned.
Did Elpis swallow the researcher?
Were they lured here by Elpis's scheme? Were they lured here for food?
"Put on the mask." Zhou Yu put on the breathing mask.
Wu Yun immediately understood Zhou Yu's meaning. He clasped Zhou Yu's wrist. "Even if the tranquilizer grenade works on those blue fireflies or swordbone butterflies, it might not work on Elpis!"
"We'll know when we try. Wu Yun, don't forget about your daughter. Anyway, it's impossible for us to go back the way we came. Why don't we try? And I have a hunch that you'll get the recorder from the researcher, as well as unexpected gains, and go back safely. "
"… Hunch … Then do you have a hunch about what will happen to me?" Wu Yun asked with a helpless smile.
Would he die here?
Or … would he be able to see his daughter again?
"Don't think about the future. The future can be changed, and the 'future' is bound to come. "
After saying that, Zhou Yu threw out the only tranquilizer grenade he had.
The grenade exploded in mid-air, and the tranquilizer gas spread in all directions.
This was an enclosed underground space, which was extremely beneficial for the tranquilizer grenade's effect.
Zhou Yu counted the time in his heart. One second, two seconds, three seconds … nine seconds, ten seconds!
The swordbone butterflies attached to the El Nino flower fell one after another, followed by the blue fireflies. It was like a blue rain, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
It was like the torrent of time, like an illusion with great momentum.
The ground was quickly covered.
And this tranquilizer was soluble in water. If it worked on the blue fireflies and swordbone butterflies, then it should also be effective on the aquatic dragon in the pool, but the effect wouldn't last long.
Zhou Yu made a "forward" gesture.
They had to race against time.
The closer they got to Elpis, the more they felt the magic of the tree.
It was as if every meridian was a creature with independent thoughts. The moment Zhou Yu raised his head and glanced at it, a wisp of piety welled up in his heart.
Elpis was like an elder who had seen everything in the world. He lowered his eyes and looked at them with pity.
At that moment, Zhou Yu's heartbeat seemed to merge with the flow of Elpis's meridians.
Wu Yun looked at the locator on her arm and walked towards Elpis step by step. What surprised him was that the researcher was lying under Elpis' tree. He was not hurt by the Swordbone Butterflies or the Blue Light Fireflies, nor was he suffocated by the Devil's Vines.
Wu Yun reached out to press on his neck and found that his pulse was very stable.
This was something that was almost impossible to happen.
Wu Yun could confirm Zhou Yu's guess. Elpis had deliberately let them enter this place, and this researcher was the bait!
What was its purpose?
At that moment, the sleeping researcher suddenly opened his eyes, startling Wu Yun so much that she took a step back.
He slowly stood up, and a smile that Wu Yun had never seen appeared on his face.
It was calm, steady, and noble.
