Chapter 1082: Chapter 513: Gravel Beach, Dead Man’s Swamp!_2

"Who will volunteer to scout ahead?"

Yuan Jifeng turned his head to ask, his gaze sweeping over those present.

Xia Hongyao was about to raise her hand when she got pulled back by Gu Qingqiu.

No one spoke up; there was a high chance of danger in this place.

"Then it seems we have no choice but to draw lots,"

Yuan Jifeng suggested.

"I’ll do it!"

Xie Yangchun stepped forward boldly, also driven by the desire to compete with Lin Baici and not wanting to be outdone.

"Be careful!"

Yuan Jifeng gave Xie Yangchun a pat on the shoulder.

Xie Yangchun picked up a few stones and threw them ahead, waited for a few minutes with no reaction, and then he started off.

The rocks on the ground were somewhat uncomfortable to walk on, and as soon as he stepped in, he felt a gust of wind blowing, roughly five or six on the Beaufort scale.

Xie Yangchun continued to throw stones as he walked.

Soon, his figure disappeared from everyone’s sight.

"Let’s wait patiently!"

Yuan Jifeng sat down.

"What’s there to wait for? If he goes too far, we won’t be able to notify him!"

Zhang Hao was worried about Xie Yangchun, "Let’s go together!"

Some looked towards Yuan Jifeng and Deng Mingyu, while others looked at Lin Baici.

In the current team, the former two were the lead examiners, at Half-Step Dragon Level, with the strongest abilities, while Lin Baici had shown excellent performance and was not lacking in influence.

Zhang Hao, one of the Three Heroes of Beijing, disregarded Yuan Jifeng and Deng Mingyu, directly addressing Lin Baici, "Is that okay?"

Yuan Jifeng and Deng Mingyu felt awkward, especially Deng Mingyu, who was quite annoyed as it was clear that he was being disregarded.

"Mhm!"

Lin Baici felt that waiting any longer was a waste of time, "Let’s set off!"

Once Lin Baici spoke up, Xia Hongyao was the first to walk down the bank and enter the gravel beach.

"I’m second!"

Hua Yue Yu hurried over, volunteering to brave the unknown as the vanguard.

"Let’s go!"

Long Miaomiao spat out a sunflower seed shell and urged Fang Mingyuan, "Keep close!"

Gulp!

Xu Wei swallowed, glancing at Deng Mingyu and then at Lin Baici before he chose to follow.

An Yi Xian and Liu Langqing didn’t hesitate; Big Auntie, having been rescued by Lin Baici, was a staunch supporter. She would follow him into the gravel beach, up mountains and across seas of flames without question.

"Captain Yuan, don’t your people from Haijing Security Bureau know to respect the old and care for the young?"

Deng Mingyu teased.

"Don’t smear honey on my lips!"

Yuan Jifeng gave Deng Mingyu a sidelong glance, "I’m not as narrow-minded as you think!"

"Heh..."

Deng Mingyu had intended to suggest letting people like Lin Baici walk ahead for a distance so that if they encountered rule pollution, they would bear the brunt of it, but Yuan Jifeng saw through his intentions.

"You’re a Half-Step Dragon Level, at least don’t disgrace that title!"

Yuan Jifeng walked down to the gravel beach.

"Damn it!"

Deng Mingyu spat, having to save face in the end, he could only follow along.

Three groups of people had made it down, with Yuan Jifeng’s side the most populated.

The examiners were no fools; those walking in front faced the greatest danger, Deng Mingyu appeared selfish if he stayed behind, and Yuan Jifeng, though always stern, was a decent person.

In case of trouble, everyone was counting on him to lend a hand.

The soles of their shoes scraping against the gravel made a swishing sound.

The wind here, as it blew past, felt like it was cutting the skin, quite painful, but for now, there was no other danger.

"This place must have been a lake before, right?"

Liu Langqing speculated, and as she put her left foot down, the gravel underneath suddenly gave way, soft like mud, causing half her foot to sink in.

Liu Langqing didn’t make much of it, she put her weight on her right foot to stabilize, tried to pull her left foot out with force, but to no avail. Her right foot now sank in as well.

This startled Liu Langqing, as she keenly realized her body was sinking.

"Brother Lin, something’s wrong!"

After Liu Langqing called out, she saw that Lin Baici and the others were also immobilized, standing in place and sinking.

"What the hell is going on?"

Xu Wei was alarmed.

"Is this rule pollution? Or have we encountered something like quicksand?"

Fang Mingyuan didn’t quite understand.

"It’s definitely rule pollution!"

Long Miaomiao struggled to pull her leg out, but the harder she tried, the faster she sank, and being small and heavy, in just a short while, everything below her knees had sunk into the gravel beach.

"I’m done for, I’m going to die!"

Long Miaomiao increased the pace of her snacking and shouted towards Lin Baici, "Brother Lin, think of something quick!"

"..."

Fang Mingyuan saw Little Fatty Sister seeking help from Lin Baici instead of him, feeling a bit bitter inside.

"Why didn’t anything happen when Xie Yangchun passed by just now?"

"Is it because there are too many of us?"

"Pollution has already erupted, figuring out how to purify it quickly is the most important!"

Everyone was arguing noisily, all trying to find ways to save themselves.

"Stop moving, the more you move, the faster you sink!"

Deng Mingyu chastised, he didn’t care whether these people lived or died, but he was worried they would drag him down with them.

Ah!

He should have been shameless and stayed behind.

Captain Yuan activated Divine Grace, and a giant dragonfly bigger than a calf appeared above his head, its wings vibrating and leaving a trail of afterimages.

Captain Yuan grabbed its abdomen feet.

The dragonfly took off, pulling Captain Yuan out of the rubble.

Buzz!

The dragonfly soared into the sky.

"Captain Yuan, save me!"

"Old Yuan, you’re amazing!"

"Captain, think of something quick!"

Everyone was shouting loudly, as if they had seen a glimmer of hope in the darkness.

"Stop shouting, be careful not to let the pollution spread further!"

Captain Yuan roared, "I’m going to scout nearby first, to find the source of the pollution!"

He said that, but Captain Yuan still steered the dragonfly to fly over Xia Hongyao.

"Red Medicine, grab my ankle!"

This was Xia Hongmian’s sister after all. If she died, he might as well commit suicide; otherwise, if he went back, he would be turned into a specimen by Xia Hongmian while still alive.

"I can hold on, save Lin Baici first."

Xia Hongyao finished speaking, then suddenly realized, "No, save Little Qiu Qiu first. Little Linzi is so capable, he can definitely handle it by himself!"

Gu Qingqiu rolled her eyes.

Clearly, in High Ponytail’s heart, she was closer to Lin Baici but trusted him more, confident that he could solve this crisis of pollution.

And herself? She was the one who needed help.

"I can take two people at a time!"

Captain Yuan thought to himself that you’re quite naive, Red Medicine. You can hang one person off each foot, get it?

And even if Xia Hongyao didn’t say it, he would save Lin Baici first, a higher priority than Zhang Hao.

"Then plus Small Fish!"

Xia Hongyao arranged.

You had to say that Xia Hongyao had quite the responsibility and commitment of a captain; at this time, she wasn’t trying to escape first.

"Stop arguing, Captain Yuan, go search the surroundings first, see if there are any creatures!"

Lin Baici commanded.

"What about you guys..."

Captain Yuan frowned.

"I have a way to free myself!"

Lin Baici spoke very calmly, with no urgency despite being trapped in the pollution.

"You really have nerves of steel!"

Captain Yuan muttered and glanced around, noticing that besides Lin Baici, Xia Hongyao and Gu Qingqiu were also not panicking, more composed than Zhang Hao.

What kind of people are these?

Are their nerves made of steel?

"Be careful!"

Captain Yuan finished speaking and the dragonfly carried him away to patrol.

Deng Mingyu was at least at Half-Step Dragon Level, so he wasn’t trapped. He activated one of the Taboo things, and a giant locust the size of a small pony appeared.

The locust’s legs were thin and sank slowly.

Deng Mingyu quickly climbed on, and then with one leap of the giant locust, covering over twenty meters, he successfully reached the nearest stone pillar.

"Red Medicine, on the locust!"

Deng Mingyu yelled out. The first person he rescued was Xia Hongyao because it would yield a huge favor from Xia Hongmian.

"No need, rescue someone else first!"

Xia Hongyao said, her eyes filled with expectation towards Lin Baici: "Little Linzi, it’s up to you now!"

"You really trust me that much!"

Lin Baici was torn between laughter and tears.

"Absolutely!"

Xia Hongyao gave a thumbs up, the Seventh Star’s top ace,

If I don’t trust you, who will?

"Do you see that weathered stone pillar over forty meters away?

Lin Baici pointed it out to High Ponytail: "You turn into a giant, and throw me over there."

"No problem!"

Xia Hongyao took out the Giant’s Finger from her pocket, stuffed it into her mouth, and swallowed hard.

Gulp!

The Giant’s Finger was somewhat long, and its nails sharp, scratching her throat, but the effect was extremely potent. As soon as the finger was swallowed, High Ponytail’s body immediately began emitting a large amount of white steam.

Hiss! Hiss!

Within the steam, a large number of muscle fibers grew, wrapping around Xia Hongyao.
