C2051 Zhou Yingxue's Risk
The reason why Zhou Yingxue had snuck in was to find Lin Long and inform him of the method to leave the underground world.
If an ordinary person wanted to leave the world of the catacombs, they could only go through the entrance. But the entrance was currently guarded by the experts from the Mask Academy, so it was practically impossible for Lin Long to leave through the entrance.
Zhou Yingxue knew the other way to leave the Underworld. Since she was worried about Lin Long, she naturally took the risk to enter the Underworld.
Lin Long had helped her greatly, so she naturally wanted to repay him.
Hopefully, she could find the Lin Gongzi, she thought to herself.
However, she was quickly at a loss because she did not know which direction to go to find Lin Long.
When she heard that the Lin Gongzi had grasped rank 4 Ice Talisman paper, they should be going to the west. Therefore, if she wanted to find them, she could only go to the west.
Although her strength was only capable of activating a Level 2 Ice Talisman, in order to find Lin Long, she decided to go all out, and directly head to the west from the center.
The beasts in the middle naturally did not have much of an impact on her, so she quickly arrived at the western side of the central region.
It was at this moment that she heard a voice in front of her. Moreover, it sounded like there were more than one or two people talking, so she immediately heard it.
She frowned as she listened carefully, because she could hear the voices of the patrollers in front of her.
After what had happened, not only did the Mask Academy have its warriors guard the entrance, they also had a few people form a patrol team to search the entire Underground World. If these patrols discover Lin Long and the others, they would immediately send out an alarm to inform the students' experts to come over.
Even if they found traces of Lin Long and the others, they would immediately report it to the elders.
Just a moment ago, Zhou Yingxue had already encountered a patrol squad, and this one was the second squad.
At that moment, Zhou Yingxue was hiding in the distance and waiting for the patrol squad in front to leave.
"Crack!"
It was at this moment that such a sound suddenly came from beneath her feet.
This voice caused her expression to change immediately. Although this voice was soft, it had already alerted the patrol squad in front of her.
Sure enough, a sound came from the front, "There seems to be a sound coming from that direction, you two go take a look!"
It was obvious that the leader of the patrol had ordered two people to come over and check.
How come she didn't notice the broken branch beneath her feet? Zhou Yingxue couldn't help but blame herself.
Blaming herself for her own guilt, she had to think of a way to avoid the two people who had come to check.
If these two found her, they would immediately take her back with them.
This way, how could she tell Lin Long the way to leave this world in the catacombs?
After such an incident, the academy had already issued an order for everyone in the catacombs to immediately leave and not linger in the catacombs. They would definitely bring her back when they found out she was alone in the catacombs.
For a moment, Zhou Yingxue could not think of any way to lure the two away.
Soon, the sound of footsteps came from the front. Clearly, it was caused by two people approaching.
Through the gap in the grass, Zhou Yingxue could even see the approximate appearance of the two people. They were indeed walking towards her.
What should he do? The other party's footsteps were getting closer and closer. Zhou Yingxue also became more and more anxious because he had yet to think of a method to lure the two away.
It was at this moment that one of them suddenly stopped and said, "Brother Wei, it should be some kind of a first-level vicious beast. I'll go take a look. You can just stay where you are."
The person called Brother Wei seemed to want to be lazy in the first place, so when he heard this, he stopped on the spot and said, "Then I'll be troubling you."
"It's just a small matter. What's the point of worrying." The person called Brother He laughed.
Finished speaking, she continued to walk in the direction of Zhou Yingxue.
The other side only had one person, which allowed Zhou Yingxue to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, her expression quickly became unsightly because the person called Brother He was getting closer and closer to her. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of her.
She seemed to have noticed him staring at her.
He probably did not realize this, but he was looking at the weeds in front of him. The sweating Zhou Yingxue was praying like this in his heart.
It was at this moment that the man called Brother He in front of her suddenly whispered, "Miss Zhou, I know it's you!"
It's over. Not only did the other party discover him, he even recognized him! Zhou Yingxue's face was ashen.
Just as she was about to stand up and face him head on, he suddenly whispered, "Don't worry, I'm not here to capture you."
"What do you mean?" Zhou Yingxue asked in confusion.
"Nothing, it's fine as long as Lady Zhou stays where she is. I won't make things difficult for you." The other party replied in a low voice.
Hearing the other party's words, Zhou Yingxue could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
But at the moment she relaxed her guard, the other person suddenly moved. He suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and swept it towards Zhou Yingxue.
Due to the distance being too close and the opponent's strength was clearly much stronger than Zhou Yingxue, Zhou Yingxue simply did not have any time to resist.
Before he could even make a sound, he was knocked unconscious on the ground.
Looking at the unconscious Zhou Yingxue on the ground, this Brother He flashed a cold smile.
"Hmm? What happened? " Hearing that there was a commotion, that person called Brother Wei could not help but look in their direction and ask at the same time.
"It's only a first level vicious beast. I've already knocked it out. Just a bit of handling will do." The man called Brother He said.
"You want the materials from a vicious beast of the first rank?" Brother Wei chuckled.
"Hai, what can I do? I've been poor recently." Brother He sighed.
"Alright, then I'll wait for you."
"Alright."
After answering, this Brother He took out a special rope to tie up Zhou Yingxue's hands and feet, and then he took some weeds to cover Zhou Yingxue's body.
After doing that, he placed a pill that exuded a strange smell beside Zhou Yingxue.
"With this pill, Zhou Yingxue should be fine in a short period of time." Brother He muttered.
This was a special pill that had the ability to drive away a grade one berserk beast for a period of time.
At this moment, Brother Wei, who was on the other side, was already getting impatient. He shouted, "Brother He, why have you spent so much time here?"
"Coming, coming." Brother He agreed.
He looked at Zhou Yingxue a few more times. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with her, he then headed in Brother Wei's direction.
After reaching that place, the two of them headed in the direction of the others.
After meeting up with the other patrols, they headed towards the entrance.
