Zhou Wen and company were alarmed when they heard that. Lu Yunxian hurriedly asked, "Lu Ning, speak clearly. What happened?"
Lu Ning recounted what had happened. They followed the markings left behind by Ouyang Lan and found the entrance to the underground tunnel. An Sheng led them in.
However, not long after they entered, the entrance to the tunnel suddenly closed. Then, large amounts of black liquid flowed out from the cracks in the surrounding rocks.
When they took a closer look, they realized that it wasn't a liquid at all. Instead, it was a kind of worm that looked like a strand of hair. There were so many of those worms that they couldn't be counted. They were like a tide. As long as one was touched by the worms, they would drill into the body through the pores and quickly make the person unconscious.
If there were too many worms drilling into the body, it would be fatal.
Since the tunnel couldn't be opened, and they had to rescue Ouyang Lan, An Sheng could only order them to retreat deep underground. After fleeing for a long time, they finally escaped the worm horde and found a strange underground palace.
However, just as An Sheng gave the order to explore the palace, Lord Alcohol and company suddenly launched a sneak attack on An Sheng and Lu Ning. An Sheng was caught off guard and was sent flying into an underground fault filled with worms. Although Lu Ning resisted a few times, she was outnumbered and was sent flying as well.
Lu Ning only remembered that she fell into the worm horde and fainted. She thought that she was doomed, but she never expected to see Zhou Wen and company when she opened her eyes.
Zhou Wen and Lu Yunxian frowned when they heard that. "Don't you know that you came out lying on a strange car?"
"What car?" Lu Ning frowned.
Seeing that Lu Ning really didn't know, Zhou Wen and Lu Yunxian were puzzled. From what Lu Ning said, it was naturally impossible for Lord Alcohol and company to be merciful and save her. There was something odd about this matter.
"Lu Ning, if you can still hold on, can you draw a map of the places you passed and the things you encountered?" Zhou Wen said to Lu Ning.
"Sure, but we were constantly fleeing back then. I can only remember the general direction. I definitely can't remember the entire route, but I do remember some special landmarks." Lu Ning took out a pen and paper and wrote some scattered information for Zhou Wen.
"Have a good rest. We'll think of a way to save them." Zhou Wen took the information and prepared to return to his game. He followed Lu Ning's route.
Lu Ning shook her head and didn't say a word. They only had so few people left, so how could they enter to save An Sheng? Furthermore, An Sheng had already fallen into the sea of worms. The chances of him surviving were slim.
However, Zhou Wen didn't believe that someone like An Sheng would die so easily. Furthermore, it was very likely that the former principal was inside. Regardless, he had to enter to take a look.
After returning to his tent, Zhou Wen switched on the mysterious phone and entered the Zhuolu dungeon, arriving at the entrance of the underground tunnel.
The strange car didn't exist in-game. After looking at the information Lu Ning had written, Zhou Wen controlled the blood-colored avatar to enter the tunnel.
The tunnel was dark and damp, and the stone steps were covered with moss. Both sides of the tunnel were half-man-made stone walls. It could be seen that this was originally an underground cave, but it was slightly man-made.
Not long after he entered the tunnel, he heard a bang. He saw that the tunnel entrance was blocked by a stone door, and the tunnel was immediately plunged into darkness.
Zhou Wen wasn't used to this darkness. Without Truth Listener's ability, his pure vision became very weak. He couldn't see in the darkness.
Thankfully, Zhou Wen still had Doctor Darkness. He got Doctor Darkness to attach himself to him and activated Light of Penetration. Zhou Wen's eyes immediately shot out a beam of light, allowing him to see clearly within ten meters.
With this look, Zhou Wen felt his scalp tingle. He saw many cracks on the stone wall, and countless hair-threaded worms were surging out. Just as Lu Ning had said, they looked like black liquid.
Zhou Wen summoned the banana fan and fanned at the surrounding hair-threaded worms. Wherever the wind passed, the worms were immediately blown away and slammed into the mountain wall, turning into shattered ice and dying.
'Killed Legendary creature, Blood Threaded Worm … Killed Legendary creature, Blood Threaded Worm … Killed Legendary creature, Blood Threaded Worm …' With this fanning, the system's notification flooded his screen.
Only at the Legendary stage? Zhou Wen was somewhat disappointed. He never expected such strange worms to only be at the Legendary stage. However, they could actually burrow into the bodies of Epic experts and knock them unconscious. This was rather impressive.
From the looks of it, the level suppression isn't absolute. The abilities of these Blood Threaded Worms are rather special, and there are so many of them. It's no wonder even Epic experts have to retreat. When Zhou Wen saw the tidal wave of Blood Threaded Worms surge over again, he didn't waste his Primordial Energy and ran deep into the underground tunnel.
Lu Ning slept for more than ten hours and used some Primordial Energy Crystals. When she woke up again, she looked much better.
Lu Yunxian suddenly asked Lu Ning when he saw her sit down, "Lu Ning, if you were to enter the underground tunnel again, would you still dare to do it?"
"Adjutant An is already dead. What's the point of us entering again?" Lu Ning sighed and said, "And now that I think about it, after we entered the tunnel, we were fleeing for our lives. I didn't realize it back then, but now that I think about it carefully, it seems like we were led away by Lord Alcohol and the others. Lord Alcohol and the others already know about the underground world. They didn't come here to save Madam Lan, so they must have a motive."
"No matter what their motive is, I don't believe that Adjutant An will die so easily. Furthermore, there's still Young Master Wen. He will definitely enter to reinforce Adjutant An. However, we don't know much about the situation inside. If possible, I hope you can enter the underground tunnel with us again," Lu Yunxian said as he looked at Lu Ning. Lu Yunxian looked at Lu Ning and said. There were some things that Zhou Wen could choose not to do, but he had to make plans early.
"Young Master Wen? Are you talking about Zhou Wen? I know he has great potential, but he's only at the Legendary stage. In such a terrifying place, even you and I can't protect ourselves. What can he do? "Lu Ning said.
Lu Yunxian didn't say anything else as he looked at Lu Ning and asked, "Then, are you willing to enter the underground tunnel again? Just treat it as doing it for Adjutant An. "
Lu Ning opened her mouth and was about to say something when she suddenly heard a clanging sound coming from the ruins. It sounded like a bell being struck, but it wasn't the sound of metal clashing. It was more like the sound of rocks hitting each other.
Zhou Wen also heard the sound and immediately thought of the strange car. Furthermore, from the direction of the sound, it seemed to be coming from the entrance of the underground tunnel.
