Whoever had captured Selina, this place was definitely their home field.
Also, it was very likely that they had ambushed the players and killed ten of them, including the host.
Suddenly, faint cries came from the depths of the cave.
Luke's heart skipped a beat. It was a woman's voice!
But he immediately realized that it wasn't Selina's voice.
He was so familiar with Selina's voice that he could understand what she was trying to say even if she only snorted.
Besides, Selina wouldn't cry like this.
The woman's voice was younger than Selina's, and sounded like … Brenda?
Luke held his breath and listened to his surroundings as he moved toward the tunnel where the cries had come from.
This underground cave was not completely dark. There was a faint light emitting from the walls and rocks of the cave.
Luke didn't know if it was fluorite or something else, but he could see clearly with the night vision goggles.
This time, he moved in for a full five minutes before arriving at a larger cave.
Luke craned his head slightly and looked into the cave.
Then, he saw … four women.
Stunned for a moment, Luke narrowed his eyes.
Of the four women, he knew three of them.
As for Selina, he didn't even need to take a closer look at her. His instincts told him that it was her.
The other two were Asel and her daughter, Brenda.
But at that moment, the mother and daughter were almost naked. They were hugging each other and shivering. Brenda was still crying in a low voice.
The other woman, on the other hand, was leaning against the wall as if she were dead.
Luke saw that her head and limbs had moved, so she wasn't dead.
But she was dirty and disheveled, and completely naked. She turned a blind eye to the three women next to her.
Selina was in the best condition. Her clothes were mostly intact, and she had only lost one shoe.
It was obvious that she had intentionally left the shoe at the entrance of the cave for Luke to track.
Also, judging from her expression, Luke knew that she was observing the terrain and wasn't waiting for death in fear.
That was the Selina that he liked.
She wouldn't give up as long as there was a slim chance of survival, even in dire straits.
Luke wasn't in a hurry to stick his head out. Instead, he observed the place carefully.
He wasn't the only passageway in this cavern. He could vaguely see a few other dark entrances.
However, there were only four women there and no one else.
Luke could smell all kinds of scents, the most obvious of which was the strange smell of rotten feces that he had smelled outside, as well as the strong smell of blood.
Actually, it was best to save them now.
Although in the movies, people who went to rescue people in this way were usually unlucky, in reality, this was the case for many rescues.
If he didn't wait for the enemy to appear before saving them, was he supposed to wait for the enemy to appear?
It was the other three women who gave Luke a headache.
Let's not talk about the corpse-like woman for now.
However, he believed that as long as he appeared, the mother and daughter who were still sobbing together would very likely cry and make a scene.
This was not because they were stupid, but because it was a normal human reaction. Most people would instinctively call for help when in danger.
Only someone like Selina, who had been trained, knew to suppress her emotions and not make a sound.
What was more troublesome was that even if they didn't scream, how was he going to bring them out?
Strength and stamina weren't a problem, but he was just a normal person, not an octopus. It was impossible for him to escape with three women in his arms.
He didn't think that the mother and daughter would just watch him save Selina while they stayed there obediently.
Also, it would be very difficult for others to help him climb out of the cave, unless someone outside pulled him with a rope.
Without much hesitation, Luke tapped the hilt of his saber rhythmically on the stone wall next to him.
The mother and daughter, who were still crying, didn't notice the slight movement, but Selina, who had been trying hard to observe the environment, did.
Stunned, she looked around even more carefully, her eyes clearly lingering around the entrance of Luke's cave.
When she looked at him, Luke stuck his head out and made a few gestures with one hand.
It was hard for Selina to see the gestures clearly, but she could vaguely see the movement. It was very vague, but it was enough to tell her the most important information.
It was a person! And a person who knew Morse code and tactical sign language.
At that moment, there was only one person she could think of who would appear in this place — Luke!
He was here!
After such a long time, the anesthetic in Selina's body had worn off a little, and her head was a lot clearer.
After thinking for a moment, she realized why Luke hadn't come out yet.
They were in a cave, and the slightest loudness would spread far away.
It was hard to say what would happen to the mother and daughter, who were still shaken, if Luke came out.
After a brief hesitation, she finally said to the mother and daughter, "I need to pee." She was about to get up.
But Brenda shouted, "Don't go! I'm scared! "Her voice was unbelievably loud.
Selina was dumbfounded.
What do you mean by don't go? I'm not your mother. Why do you have to take a pee?
Luke: … I knew it wouldn't be that simple.
It wasn't Selina's problem, but Brenda was clearly on the verge of a mental breakdown, and she might overreact at the slightest movement.
Luke, who had been slightly hesitant, immediately gave up on the mother and daughter.
He couldn't take Brenda with him when she was so prone to shouting.
Taking her with him would be like carrying a powerful radar that would provide the enemy with his location. They wouldn't be able to hide at all.
However, since there was already a commotion, Luke wasn't in a hurry.
At a time like this, the more anxious one was, the easier it was to make mistakes.
As Brenda shouted, two shadows dashed out of a tunnel in the depths of the cave.
Luke narrowed his eyes. What the hell were those?
The two shadows looked like humans, but the way they walked was more similar to that of apes.
In the dim light, Luke could vaguely make out their faces. Not only were they bloated and deformed, their mouths were full of sharp teeth and bloody scraps of flesh. They looked as hideous as ghosts.
The muscles on their bodies were quite developed, and they moved very quickly. They were really similar to apes, agile and leaping.
Luke frowned.
The actions of these two monsters were not enough to pose a threat to him, but there was another problem.
What about their numbers?
In the brief moment just now, all ten players on the host's side had been killed, and Asel, Brenda, and Selina had been captured in three different locations. None of them had made much noise.
These two couldn't be the only monsters, unless they had superpowers.
