1211 Escape


    Qiu Yaokang frowned. He lifted Wan’s right wrist and checked it.


    Wan’s body was covered in ck cracks, and he looked like he was about to copse.


    Sandy looked at Qiu Yaokang and asked anxiously, “How’s his condition?”


    “Not good, he’s dying.”


    “Ah?”


    Qiu Yaokang took out a white pill from his backpack, opened Wan’s mouth, and poured it in.


    Even after taking the medicine, Wan’s condition did not improve. Beads of cold sweat rolled down his cheeks.


    “What did you just give him?”


    “Something that can temporarily save his life. He’s seriously injured now and needs to be brought back for treatment immediately. Otherwise, no one can save him.”


    As they were talking, Tang Mingyue and Warren also ran to the entrance along the stone steps.


    Seeing how terrible Wan’s condition was, the two of them looked grim.


    “BOOM! Boom Boom Boom!”


    An extremely violent explosion came from the bottom of the abyss.


    The crowd shook violently.


    Immediately after, the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently, and arge number of broken stones fell from the sky.


    Everyone’s expression changed.


    This was bad.


    The mausoleum’s self-destruction device had been activated.


    This ce was about to copse.


    Tang Mingyue stuck her head out and looked at the abyss below. She could vaguely see that Fang Heng was constantly being affected by the strong wind and was hitting back and forth on the rock wall.


    Further down, the mes of the explosion could be faintly seen.


    Warren said in a deep voice, “The self-destruction alchemy array has been activated. The explosion will start from the bottom and gradually bury the entire mausoleum! Hurry up! We need to get out of here as soon as possible after we rescue Fang Heng.”


    “Let’s split up. You guys take Wan and leave first! I’ll bring Fang Heng over immediately!”


    Tang Mingyue took a look at Wan, who was severely injured and could not move freely and made a decision immediately. Then she looked down at the bottom of the abyss, staring at Fang Heng, who was constantly being hit by the strong wind and rapidly rising.


    “Let’s go!”


    “Run!” Warren shouted and helped the unconscious Wan up. He ran towards the exit first.


    Tang Mingyue’s peripheral vision swept over Warren and the others who were quickly retreating. She took a deep breath and raised her staff.


    The demonic seed’s recovery ability was terrifyingly strong. In the process of escaping just now, she had recovered a small part of her mental strength in less than half a minute of rest.


    It was enough!


    Buzzzzzz!


    The moment she saw Fang Heng pass by her, a sharp glint shed in Tang Mingyue’s eyes. She raised her staff.


    “Ice storm!”


    Her mental energy surged into the staff in her hand!


    The cold wind howled!


    As the ice crystals swirled and attacked, they condensed again, forming a thinyer of ice on the cave!


    “Ka ka ka…”


    In the blink of an eye, the ice curtain connected, forming a solid ice curtain in front of them.


    “BOOM!”


    After losing lie Feng’s control, Fang Heng hit the wall again and fell from the air, hitting the ice heavily.


    “It hurts…”


    Fang Heng gritted his teeth and shook his head, which had be even more swollen due to the continuous collisions earlier. He endured the pain all over his body and gave Tang Mingyue a thumbs-up.


    Tang Mingyue heaved a sigh of relief and nodded at Fang Heng.


    “Go! Quickly retreat!”


    …


    In the main hall above the royal mausoleum and in front of the entrance of the tomb, more than ten alchemists of the Empire were controlling the operation of the magic array together.


    Tang Mo piously bowed to the stone statue of the Empire’s ancestor Andrast and silently chanted.


    Behind him, Wei Tao and Mikhael were burning with anxiety as they kept exchanging nces.


    From time to time, the game prompts would appear to stimte their nerves.


    Who was Sydney?


    The big BOSS in the SSS-level mission?


    They clearly knew that Fang Heng was fighting a bloody battle below, but they couldn’t help at all and could only worry.


    Aftering here, they first argued with the royal general guarding the mausoleum for a while, then followed them to the entrance of the mausoleum. They learned that they had to kneel three times and kowtow nine times before they were allowed to open the mausoleum.


    They knew that the other party was stalling for time, but they couldn’t do anything to them.


    “Ka, ka ka ka…”


    ...


    Finally, the prayer was finished.


    The alchemy magic array in the hall also began to glow with a dim yellow light.


    A huge door slowly opened before everyone’s eyes.


    Not long ago, the Empire’s generals who learned of the invasion of the Imperial mausoleum were unwilling to let Tang Mo leave but they could only do their best to dy the time.


    “Prince Tang Mo, the lower level of the Imperial mausoleum is an important area. In order to prevent the evil aura from spreading and the vengeful spirits guarding it, I suggest you guard the door and wait for the intruders to leave before catching them all in one fell swoop…”


    “There’s no need for you to worry about the matters of the royal family.”


    Along the way, Tang Mo’s patience was almost worn out. He was about to take people to explore the lower floor when hurried footsteps were heard.


    A group of well-equipped royal guards quickly walked up and surrounded everyone in the hall.


    In the crowd, a young man in bright silver armor walked up.


    “Themander of the royal guards, Xiao Yun, pays his respects to Your Highness!”


    “Xiao Yun.”


    ...


    Tang Mingyue turned her head and stared at the person coldly.


    She had heard of the newmander of the royal guards, and it was said that this man was deeply trusted by the current acting King Salvador.


    Xiao Yun also looked at Tang Mo.


    Just a moment ago, the royal family had received the news that Her Highness Mingyue and the barbarians had appeared in the Empire’s mausoleum.


    Salvador immediately ordered Xiao Yun to bring the royal guards to the Royal tomb to capture Tang Mingyue and her group.


    Xiao Yun never expected to see Tang Mo as soon as he came here.


    He felt that things were getting more and more troublesome.


    Tang Mingyue and Tang Mo had always had a deep rtionship and it was a bit difficult to take Tang Mingyue away in front of Tang Mo.


    Tang Mo asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”


    “Your Highness, the royal guards havee under the orders of His Majesty to capture the thieves who invaded the Imperial mausoleum and bring her Highness back.”


    There was no expression on Tang Mo’s face as he stepped forward, “It just so happens that I’m also here to find Mingyue. Let’s go together.”


    Xiao Yun stopped in front of Tang Mo and said in a deep voice, “It’s an urgent task personally assigned by His Majesty. I’m afraid it’s inconvenient for Your Highness to go with us.”


    “Inconvenient? What inconvenience? It’s not up to you outsiders to point fingers in the matters of the royal family.”


    Tang Mo stared at Xiao Yun and said, “You want to stop me? Hurry up and get lost!”


    Seeing that the situation had suddenly be tense, Wei Tao and Mikhael behind him were ready to fight.


    Just as they were about to make a move, a game notification suddenly appeared on their retinas.

    [Hint: The yer team’s main mission is the inheritance of the Empire’s ancestors. The yer team has received an additional 26 hours of trial time. The yer team’s trial score has greatly increased.]


    [Hint: The yer has received guidance for the next stage of the main storyline trial mission. Please go to the designated ce ording to the game prompt to trigger the next stage of the mission.]


    When they saw the game notification, Wei Tao and Mikhael’s hearts were at their throats.
