Chapter 672: Trapped
This was an abandoned train tunnel. It was higher and wider than the underground city, but Ye Zhongming and Gaye still frowned when they smelled the fishy stench.
The Death King Trees branches will give off some liquid that has a healing effect on external injuries. But no one knows if this is true. This smell is from that liquid.
Gaye pointed ahead, Walk for 30 minutes, and you will see the Death King Trees roots.
Ye Zhongming looked around. The light from the torch wasnt able to shine too far.
Although I dont know why you are here, you should return after seeing the roots. The further you go, the more dangerous this will be.
His big worry was gone as his son woke up and reached four-star evolved. This was why Gaye agreed to lead the way for Ye Zhongming. But if possible, he would rather accompany his son and see him grow. He wanted to fight alongside his son and try to survive in this world.
It was best if he could get this boss to retreat.
But when Gaye glanced at his expression, he knew that there wasnt much hope for that.
Ten minutes after entering the tunnel, the path started to branch out. There were so many branches that one got lost.
When the Death King Tree ate the other plants, it tried to control Linhai. The process was naturally not so smooth. It fought with some strong mutated ocean snakes, and they started to attack the main body of the Death King Tree. These tunnels were left then.
Gaye sounded terrified. Although Linhai survivors didnt see that battle, it caused a huge commotion, leaving a huge impression on them.
Thinking back, it would have been better if those mutated sea snakes won. At least the humans wont be trapped in this city.
Maybe because this trip was really risky, or he was relaxed because his son had healed, Gaye was more extroverted than a few hours ago. His face had more expressions than before.
This time, Gayes value was on full display. He had come here before and had seen the Death King Trees main body. He was probably one of those who was still alive. He moved through the tunnels and occasionally stopped to confirm the direction.
If Ye Zhongming came himself, even if he found the Death King Trees body in the end, that would be several days later.
The deeper they went, the fewer signs of humans there were, and the more branches. There were fewer places to step on, which slowed them down.
Two hours later, Gaye stopped.
Why? Ye Zhongming looked around, and there was nothing weird, so he asked softly.
Something isnt right. Gaye frowned and looked around, When I was here last time, there were many dried corpses and even a moving branch, but this time
Gaye took in a deep breath, Everything is too silent.
When Gaye said that, Ye Zhongming knew things werent right, and Moon Edge appeared in his hands.
Why not we retreat?
Gaye also took out two blades and asked the boss beside him.
It is Too late!
The moment he finished, Ye Zhongming dragged Gaye and ran backward. At the same time, a situation occurred.
There was a huge commotion in the tunnel as if a train was passing through. The ground shook. Along with this sound were the footsteps of dried corpses.
Why did we stop? the two of them stopped. Gaye asked Ye Zhongming anxiously. Stopping now was the same as dying.
Ye Zhongming didnt reply and just tossed the light sticks around. Gaye took a look and gave an exasperated expression.
Dried corpses appeared all around. Moreover, they werent like those on the surface. These were giant sea snake dried corpses!
The failures of the battle for Linhai had become its subordinates, surrounding the two of them in the middle.
The Death King Tree had noticed them a long while ago!
