The two of them turned around in shock and saw a plume of smoke rising in the distance.
"What was that sound? What's going on over there? "
Beauty Sala, who was behind Hellig, asked uneasily.
Heilig had no idea what was going on. He suddenly remembered what Faceless had told him.
If he had discovered Reina's whereabouts, he would have sent them a signal. Could it be?
"A signal."
He muttered as he looked at the plume of smoke in the distance.
"What?"
Yao Ji was even more confused.
"It's a signal from Faceless! He found Reina! "
Heilig said excitedly as he looked into the distance.
"You mean, Faceless isn't dead? That human is also on the mountain? "
"Yes! Not only is he not dead, but he also found Reina! They're all fine! "
Yao Ji could feel Heilig's excitement, but she was not as optimistic as Heilig. That was just an explosion. Although it might have been caused by the hunters, it might not have been Faceless' signal. It could have been sent by the hunters who were trapped in the mountain.
And the most important thing right now was …
The Divine Bow had been taken away, leaving only the two of them. There were many Hybrid Demons at the foot of the mountain. Even if it was Faceless' signal for help, the two of them could not do anything.
"Jurgen and the others left with the Divine Bow. What do you plan to do?"
Heilig also realized the problem. He turned around and looked at the endless rift valley.
"Maybe they'll hear the sound and turn back."
"What if they don't?"
Heilig was silent for a while. He frowned. As the temporary team leader, he had failed miserably. He had not kept his promise and comforted his team members. He really did not know how to face Faceless now. Perhaps he should not have forced himself to participate in this mission. He should have fought the Hybrid Demons with his hunters on the front line.
"It's all my fault. If I didn't leave without permission."
Yao Ji lowered her head and pressed her forehead against Heilig's back.
"Yes, you shouldn't have left. But … I'm also responsible. I'm sorry. I should have found out about your leg injury earlier."
Heilig said guiltily. What he didn't know was that Cia buried her head in his back and grabbed his clothes tightly.
"Let's wait here. Faceless will know what to do after we meet him."
What they didn't know was that Nasia had already led Youken and Busie to the depths of the labyrinth and soon arrived at the exit.
Busey suddenly stopped. She sensed something and turned back to look.
"What happened?"
Faceless and the other two also stopped. Boosie was their eyes, and any discovery she made was very important.
"There's movement in the distance. It seems like there's a battle."
Busey said, pointing in the direction they had come from.
"It could be Hellig or Shia …"
Jurgen said worriedly. He looked at Faceless with an uneasy expression.
"They might still be alive! It's inside this maze. "
The faceless white mask. For some reason, Youken felt that his current expression was as expressionless as his mask.
"It may be possible, but we can't turn back."
"Why? Without Hellig, how would we know who we were looking for? Without Shia, we can't treat the wound. "
Busey retorted. She was carrying Shia's luggage. At this moment, she was very anxious. Perhaps Shia had returned to the camp and found that her supplies had been taken away. She didn't dare to think about it. Even if there were no Hybrid Demons, this place was deadly. It was almost impossible to find a source of food here.
Youken felt the same way. He was often mistaken for a fierce person, but in fact, he was gentle and quiet.
"I think we should go back and save them."
"It's too late now."
Faceless said calmly.
"What?"
The two were stunned. While they were trying to figure out Faceless' intentions, they felt an extreme chill. This was … murderous intent!
It was extremely pure! Murderous intent without any other distracting thoughts! What kind of monster could produce such a pure murderous intent for the sake of killing?
Youken's body trembled. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing two rows of teeth. It was an extremely terrifying expression.
His body reacted. This was his fighting posture.
Busey clenched her fists. Her perception was expanded to the extreme. She had never felt like this before. Not a trace of movement around her could escape her perception. The sound was terrifyingly clear. There was no noise at all.
"There is a terrible monster in the maze. It's one of the gatekeepers, but it usually sleeps. It's a bit grumpy when it wakes up."
Faceless explained.
"How do you know there is such a monster? Even the chief and elders don't know."
Youken was puzzled.
Faceless' back was facing the two. He let out a few laughs.
"Oh, of course they don't know. Those who know are all dead. Except for me, who do you think marked this path?"
Hearing this, the two were shocked. The person who found this path was actually Faceless? Who was he? According to the records, the person who could pass through the Ancient God's maze was the only survivor of the crusade team that went to the Heart of Distortion more than a hundred years ago. Could it be that Faceless was that person?
Then how old was he?
No, what kind of race was he? He was more than a hundred years old and could still be alive?
"You, what are you …"
"Let's not talk about me first. After that monster is dealt with, we might be the next. Have you decided to go back?"
Faceless' question made the two speechless. The murderous aura they felt was definitely not an enemy that could be defeated without being injured.
And as Faceless said, even if they went back, Heilig and the others might already be … dead.
Suddenly, Youken thought of something. Was this a coincidence? Why did Faceless ask them to wait at the entrance for a night and leave in the morning?
Why did he come back in the morning?
Why was he not surprised at all when he knew that Heilig and Shea had left? Why did he immediately take them through the maze?
Most importantly, if he knew there was such a terrible monster in the maze, why didn't he say so earlier?
Could it be that he …
Youken held his breath as he thought of this.
Shea and Heilig were just pawns to lure the monster away …
"Don't forget our mission."
Faceless left this sentence, then turned and left.
Busey hesitated for a moment and followed. Youken lowered his head in pain. He gripped the Moon Goddess statue on his chest and mourned for a moment before finally following.
He still had to save millions of people in Caldera. He could not stop here.
