On the other side, Abby and the members of the Orion team withdrew from the secret room after being pushed out by Sean.

They carried out earthwork according to Sean's instructions, pouring all the soil they could collect into the passage.

Abby seemed the most anxious. She was not as lively as usual. She just gritted her teeth and dug the sand and gravel mechanically without saying a word.

How could this happen? Master and Emily will be fine. The originally exquisite backpack was now filled with sand and soil. The single-layer zipper had long been unable to bear the weight and was wide open, leaking mud with the anxious steps.

Shuahuachacha~

A backpack of soil was dumped out, and only the increasing piles of soil in the passage showed the efforts of everyone.

As everyone was anxious, Linus transformed into an eagle and flew past swiftly, brushing everyone's scalps, and just barely flew over the pile of dirt towards the secret room passage.

Then, there was a crackling sound of heavy objects colliding from behind the long and narrow passage. This sudden situation made everyone stop unconsciously, and they looked inside with worried and somewhat curious eyes. At this time, only Abby was still moving the things without stopping.

The noise became louder and louder, and the disturbing magic factors gradually caused the rock walls outside the passage to be covered with a layer of white frost, and the hard soil made earthwork more difficult.

"Boom~"

There was a sudden earthquake, a violent movement that was beyond human control and cast a shadow over the hearts of everyone outside the passage.

"Hammer, why don't we go down and check the situation." Someone finally couldn't help but speak up. The man bumped the person next to him with his shoulder and gestured to the passage with his eyes.

The two of them nodded quietly, trying to sneak away when no one was paying attention.

This action was discovered by Abby who was pouring soil, and she immediately stopped it:

"Stop, no one is allowed to go down."

"I believe in Master. He will definitely bring the mayor and his men up. Before that, please follow his instructions."

Abby stood between the two tall hunters and the passage. Although she was petite, her eyes were full of determination.

She held her head high and looked at the two men firmly, without dodging: "We just need to guard this mechanism. Before Sean rescues Lewis, pour as much as possible into this passage. Don't think about anything else in the meantime."

The urgency of the situation and her trust in Sean made her stand up and take responsibility under pressure when there were disagreements in the team.

"Mendy, I think you are not as sensible as a girl. If you don't make trouble when you go down there, your ancestors will be in trouble." Someone nearby saw the argument and came over to persuade them.

Seeing that Mendy was still hesitating, the man spoke again, "Why do you still think that you can blow away those damn cracks and strange environment and send them back to the womb?"

"Lira, I'm just thinking that there's such a big commotion inside and no one has come up for such a long time. Let's go down and take a look at the situation. Then we can make a decision whether to stay or withdraw." Mendy's tone softened. This explanation and evasion seemed more like a way for him to save face.

"Just do your own job. It's not your turn to make the decision. If you're anxious, just move more loads of soil." The middle-aged strong man named Lira scolded the man named Mendy.

Hearing this, Mendy returned to the pit angrily, picked up the pickaxe and started hitting with all his might.

A crisis of disagreement within the team came to a temporary end.

"Something's happening!" Hammer, who was pouring soil, suddenly shouted, attracting everyone's attention.

Accompanied by noisy footsteps, a group of people appeared in the shadows of the passage.

"Thank God, you finally came out." Hammer breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "Are you okay?"

"Mayor, be careful." With Hammer's help, Lewis was the first to get out of the passage.

The polar environment made the old man cold, pale, hard and numb all over. He walked out of the secret room with only one breath and with the help of Gast.

At this moment, he was trembling and wanted to speak but couldn't, so he was helped by the hunters to the side to rest.

Behind him, Gast, Petra and Emily carrying a shield came out one after another.

As Abby's expression changed from surprise to disappointment, the giant deer finally walked out carrying the frozen trio.

Everyone looked at the giant deer in amazement and confusion. Emily saw this and quickly said, "Please clear a piece of open space quickly so that Senior Linus can rescue the trapped people."

There was another flurry of activity, and everyone made way for them. Only Abby stood there in a daze, staring into the passage.

The light enveloped the three people and placed them on flat ground. As the light passed, Linus returned to his human form.

This strange scene has made everyone, who have experienced so many strange things, numb. If someone says that the sun will rise from the west tomorrow, some people will probably believe it.

With green light lingering in his palm, Linus controlled the green light to wrap around the frozen trio, melting the ice and treating their frostbite.

"Everyone, don't relax and stay alert. Sean is at the rear. When he comes out, immediately close the mechanism." Finally, Emily explained Sean's situation.

I thought it seemed like there was someone else who hadn't come up yet. Everyone was so excited that they remembered that Sean was still down there, and the tension came back.

"It'll be okay." Emily saw the anxiety on Abby's face as she stood aside looking into the passage, and went forward to comfort her.

"Yeah, I've always believed it." Abby nodded slightly, but his eyes never moved away.

After Linus and others escaped, the noise in the secret room became violent again, and the violent noise made the two women's hearts beat faster.

It lasted for a while and then became eerily quiet again.

"The spirit told me that it will soon calm down." Emily turned her head to look at Abby, who was holding her arm tightly.

Before he finished speaking, the noise was heard again in the passage and was getting closer and closer.

Like a dull, old and distorted sound, the sound resounded in the cave, and finally Sean's figure appeared within sight in the passage.

"Hurry! Close the gate!" Sean shouted to the two women outside the passage who were still in a daze because of the surprise.

"Yes! Pull the mechanism down!" Abby jumped up and turned happily to shout to the person standing next to the switch.

The sound of huge mechanical gears drove the stone door to slowly fall. Sean controlled the soil in the passage, softening, reorganizing, and hardening it into mud walls that blocked the advance of the skeleton army.

As the stone door slowly closed, the leaked light became dimmer and dimmer.

"touch~"

As the next ray of light was blocked out forever, a figure rushed out, and the stone door officially closed, crushing the bones that did not have time to pass through.

"Master!" Abby rushed over in surprise.

"Okay, it's okay." Being bumped into by his own apprentice, Sean caressed Abby's soft purple hair lovingly.

He raised his head with a smile, exchanged a smile with Emily, and continued to scan Lewis, Geist and others.

Everyone's face was filled with smiles of relief at having survived the disaster.

The next step is to wait for the people from the Explorers Guild to come and clean up the mess. I don’t know how they will handle this situation.

While relaxing, Sean thought aimlessly.
