Chapter 1042: Chapter 491: The Third Town, Beast Fighting Arena_2

"Do we really need to purify all seven towns before we can get out?"

Ai Xuyue asked.

"It looks like it, given the current situation!"

The Big Auntie heaved a quiet sigh.

"Ah?"

A chorus of groans arose from the examinees.

"What are you groaning about? If you can get out after visiting the seven towns, you should count yourselves lucky. The real fear is if this Divine Ruins revert to its original state and require us to contain the God’s Bones before we can truly leave."

Zhang Haokan was annoyed by the whining and shouted.

Not just the examinees, even the young examiners like Zhou Ziyang couldn’t help but gasp at Zhang Hao’s speculation, with a chilling tingling on their scalps.

These examiners were all aware that the God’s Bones of the Luoyang Seven Towns had yet to be found.

"Don’t worry, with Little Linzi here, it’s as good as done!"

Xia Hongyao loved these kinds of high-difficulty challenges.

"Stop, there’s no way forward!"

Zhang Hao suddenly spoke up. In front of her was a layer of dirt. She pushed hard twice, feeling it was very thick and immovable.

...

While Lin Baici and his group were advancing through the tunnel, the dark mist of Crow Ridge was dissipating slowly, like the morning fog vanishing with the sunrise in winter.

As the mist cleared and visibility improved, the Dragon Tooth Inn halfway up the hillside could be seen in the distance.

Li Xiang leaned against a poplar tree, lazily smoking a cigarette. Not far away, a young man in a red down jacket was sitting atop a Dead Flesh Man, smashing its head with a rock.

Even the monster was being battered into pitiful screams, crying for help ceaselessly.

"Crazy!"

Li Xiang shook his head. Around the young man in the down jacket lay a dozen or so Dead Flesh Men, their deaths gruesome. After snuffing out the cigarette butt on the tree bark and preparing to light another, Li Xiang suddenly noticed the mist starting to fade.

"They’re purifying it so fast!"

Impressed, Li Xiang turned to leave, heading for the next town.

...

Wang Lei and his group, who were searching for a way out, stopped in their tracks.

"Someone has completed the challenge!"

Wang Lei frowned, turning to look at Shen Nan.

Shen Nan was expressionless.

"Aren’t you angry?"

Wang Lei teased, "Someone’s faster than you again!"

Shen Nan remained silent.

"Well, with luck-based rules like these, strong abilities are pretty much useless!"

Wang Lei walked up to Shen Nan and slung an arm around his shoulder, "But if it’s Lin Baici who solved this challenge, then your face is really gonna be wiped clean!"

Shen Nan shook off Wang Lei’s hand and quickened his pace forward.

Wang Lei watched Shen Nan’s retreating back, his brows furrowed tightly.

Damn it!

It better not be that Lin Baici!

Worried and annoyed, Wang Lei reflected that what was supposed to be a simple proctoring task might now turn into a stepping stone for Lin Baici.

...

In the tunnel, the flashlight beams moved as everyone searched for an exit.

"Everyone, please carefully check your surroundings for an exit,"

The Big Auntie called out.

"Could we have taken a wrong turn?"

Zhou Ziyang analyzed, perhaps the wardrobe wasn’t the exit at all.

Everyone was stressed out; the tunnel was so cramped that aside from petite-sized people like Hua Yue Yu, it was very hard for anyone else to turn around.

The only option was to back out.

Zhang Hao punched at the walls of soil around her.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, the ground beneath her crumbled, forming a hole with her strikes, which greatly delighted her. She continued to punch with force, and after seven or eight strikes, the ground underneath her suddenly collapsed.

Boom!

Zhang Hao fell down.

Lin Baici reacted quickly and darted forward.

Snap!

Lin Baici grabbed Zhang Hao’s wrist.

Zhang Hao didn’t panic; she looked down below.

"Let’s go, the third town!"

"Follow me!"

Lin Baici leapt down.

"Damn!"

Zhang Hao had planned to observe a little longer, but to her surprise, Lin Baici was bold enough to jump straight down.

Xia Hongyao, Gu Qingqiu, along with Hua Yue Yu, trusted Lin Baici completely, and without any hesitation, they each jumped down one after the other.

The Big Auntie watched this scene, dying of envy.

This team was the kind where you could entrust your life to your comrades.

Lin Baici embraced Zhang Hao, sliding downwards like riding a spiral slide.

Amidst the whirlwind, only the fierce wind blew against their faces.

Suddenly, the two’s vision brightened, and they found themselves in open space as Lin Baici and Zhang Hao burst out of the tunnel.

Emerging from the darkness, Lin Baici and the other’s vision were impaired, but they still tried hard to widen their eyes, surveying their surroundings to prevent a sneak attack.

They were in a circular clearing as big as two football fields, surrounded by walls eighteen meters high, covered with blood scabs, weapon scratches, and a few mummified bodies impaled by spears.

The two had slid out of a large hole in the wall fifteen meters above the ground.

If it were ordinary people, they would surely have fallen to their near death, but Lin Baici and Zhang Hao landed steadily on the ground.

"You keep watch."

After Lin Baici said that, he took a few steps and, with a leap, caught Hua Yue Yu in his arms; he had intended to catch Gu Qingqiu as well, but Xia Hongyao had already pulled her into his embrace.

Thud! Thud!

The two landed.

"Rescue them!"

Lin Baici yelled, releasing Hua Yue Yu and grabbing Fang Mingyuan, while High Ponytail dashed towards Long Miaomiao.

Amidst continuous screams, one figure after another streaked out from the tunnel.

After several minutes of chaos, everyone had emerged, with Ai Xuyue being slightly careless and twisting her ankle upon landing.

"Third Town, Beast Fighting Arena!"

Auntie looked up, "As expected, it’s changed!"

Above them, where there should have been clear blue skies, was now an assembly of huge mirrors pieced together to form an immense dome, concealing the entire arena.

These mirrors reflected everyone’s image, enlarging them so much so that even their sweat hair could be seen clearly.

In the stands, there were no spectators, only dilapidated, rusted chairs.

"In this round, the named individuals, as long as they defeat their clone, will pass!"

Zhang Hao explained to the candidates, "However, the contamination seems to have changed."

Gurgle!

Fang Mingyuan swallowed hard, not yet grasping the situation when suddenly, in each piece of mirror overhead, a woman’s head appeared.

It was Auntie.

"Hu!"

Auntie took a deep breath and cursed under her breath, why am I so unlucky?

"Everyone else, stand back!"

Zhou Ziyang urged.

Everyone quickly retreated, standing against the wall.

Auntie moved to the center of the arena. Even though the stands were visibly empty, a round of enthusiastic cheers and applause erupted at that moment.

Zzzt!

Two beams of light shot down from the mirrors overhead, much like laser printing, starting with the feet, followed by the legs, gradually moving upward, then the head and hair, printing out the whole person.

In just thirty seconds, two clones identical to Auntie appeared in the arena, even the clothes and weapons on them were the same as Auntie’s.

"It looks like this time we’re fighting two clones!"

Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, if that were the case,

Not hard!

"How strong are those clones?"

Lin Baici inquired.

"What the original knows, the clone knows too, but the clones’ intelligence is average."

Xia Hongyao briefed: "If you understand yourself well enough, then fighting several should not be a problem!"

"More weapons have appeared!"

Zhang Hao observed meticulously: "Previously, the clones had no weapons, but now it seems, even the Taboo things can be replicated!"

"If your Taboo thing is too strong, I suggest you not use it!"

Zhang Hao looked towards Lin Baici, this kid definitely had a lot of good stuff on him.

Some Taboo things were powerful and simple to operate, which even clones with low intelligence could use effectively.

As soon as the two clones were finished printing, they pounced on Auntie like lightning.

Auntie immediately fled, trying to distance herself.

Her nature was more steady; she wanted to first gauge the caliber of the clones.

[The longer you delay, the stronger the clones get!]

[Every three minutes passed, one more clone will appear!]

Hearing Eater God’s commentary, Lin Baici immediately shouted, "Auntie, don’t run, attack!"

Auntie turned her head, saw Lin Baici’s clear eyes, and suddenly clenched her teeth.

"I trust you!"

Auntie lunged towards the two clones.

"Can others help?"

Gu Qingqiu inquired.

"Don’t you dare!"

Zhang Hao interjected: "If others help, the number of clones will increase!"

Hua Yue Yu felt goosebumps, fighting two of herself?

I can’t win!
