Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 218 Struggle and Hope on the Brink of Life and Death

In the deep and dark cave, the dust seemed to be given life, dancing wildly, like a surging black tide, rolling, surging, and spreading unscrupulously.

The entire space was shrouded in thick dust and fog, blurring vision and making breathing difficult.

At this moment, the leader of the mysterious organization suddenly roared like a mad roar from the abyss of hell, breaking the chaos and silence.

Immediately afterwards, a pitch-black ball fell from the sky with a heart-pounding whistling sound.

In an instant, a dazzling firelight appeared, like a ferocious and terrifying beast opening its bloody mouth and ruthlessly devouring everything around it.

The extremely powerful explosion caused the entire cave to tremble, and the ground was cracked into countless deep grooves.

At this moment, a huge explosion wave came sweeping in with devastating force.

Li Zhao and others who were standing not far away instantly became like fallen leaves in a strong wind. They completely lost control of themselves and were knocked to and fro by this powerful force.

The violent air waves carried with them countless fine pieces of sand and gravel, which were like sharp hidden weapons, mercilessly hitting people's cheeks and causing bursts of stinging pain.

Li Zhao only felt the burning pain on his cheek, but the situation was critical at the moment and he could not afford to hesitate at all.

I saw him gritting his teeth tightly, all the muscles in his body were tense, trying his best to support his already shaky body.

He widened his eyes and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Everyone, be careful! Find a safe place to hide!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhao showed amazing reaction speed.

He quickly stretched out his arms, grabbed Su Mengyao and the Crown Princess beside him, and then used all his strength to drag them behind a huge rock nearby.

Just as the three of them hid themselves, the flying sand and air waves came one after another, hitting the rocks hard, making crackling sounds.

As the deafening sound of the explosion gradually weakened, the entire cave was still shaking violently as if it had gone mad.

At this moment, the cave was like a huge beast that had reached the end of its life and was on the verge of collapse. It was roaring and showing its fangs, as if it would open its bloody mouth at any time and bury them completely in the darkness.

Li Zhao struggled to see the chaotic scene in front of him through the billowing smoke and dust that made it almost impossible to open his eyes.

His heart felt as if it was being roasted by fire, and he was extremely anxious. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead, mixing with the raised dust, making him look extremely miserable.

He knew very well that the situation had reached a critical juncture and time had become countless times more valuable than gold.

With every passing second, the danger increases. If they cannot find a way to escape as soon as possible, then death is the only thing waiting for them.

Thinking of this, Li Zhao couldn't help but grit his teeth, clenched his fists and swore secretly: I must try my best to find a chance of survival no matter what!

At this critical moment, a deafening roar suddenly sounded, like rolling thunder, penetrating through the layers of smoke and dust.

The huge monster had broken free from the shackles of chaos at some point. Its eyes were red and a violent aura emanated from its body. It waved its thick and powerful claws, swatting away the approaching gravel and stirring up a cloud of flying sand and rocks.

Li Zhao's heart suddenly moved, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He instantly understood the monster's intention and shouted loudly: "Follow the monster, it can lead us out!"

Su Mengyao didn't have time to think about it, and followed Li Zhao closely, struggling forward in the gravel and dust.

The masters of the mysterious organization were like a group of lingering wolves, biting them tightly.

The leading master had a grim look in his eyes, and he keenly caught Li Zhao's trace in the chaos. A cruel sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and with a wave of his hand, he and several of his men chased after him like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

As he chased, he roared at the top of his lungs, his voice filled with a fierce determination to win.

Li Zhao looked back, his eyes instantly becoming resolute and determined, an unyielding flame ignited in his heart, and he thought to himself: We must not let them succeed!

So he stopped abruptly, turned around and faced the enemy, gripping the sword tighter in his hand until his knuckles turned white from the force.

Su Mengyao also stopped without hesitation and stood side by side with him. The three of them stood back to back, forming a solid line of defense.

Although they were exhausted, ragged, and covered in blood, their eyes revealed their determination to face death.

The two sides instantly engaged in a fierce battle. Li Zhao's swordsmanship became increasingly fierce, and each strike carried the momentum of a desperate struggle. He only had eyes for the enemy, seemingly forgetting the pain and fatigue in his body.

Su Mengyao's figure was as agile as a nimble night cat. The dagger in her hand flickered in the light and shadow. She cleverly dodged the enemy's attacks and looked for opportunities to counterattack.

The Crown Princess relied on calm and steady moves to deal with the enemy. Her eyes were firm, and every move she made carried a power that could not be underestimated.

As the battle was in full swing, a creepy roar suddenly came from the top of the cave.

Everyone looked up in horror and saw a huge rock, like a hill falling from the sky, rapidly falling towards them, carrying with it an endless breath of death.

Li Zhao and others opened their eyes wide, their eyes full of fear and despair. Their bodies trembled slightly with fear, but there was nowhere to escape.

At the critical moment, a dark shadow rushed over like lightning. It turned out to be the monster, which, regardless of its own safety, used its huge body to block the falling boulder.

With a dull "bang", the boulder hit the monster heavily. The monster roared in pain, its voice full of pain and unwillingness, but its mountain-like body did not move at all.

Li Zhao and others were deeply shocked by the monster's actions, and an indescribable feeling of emotion welled up in their hearts.

They exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying determination and courage, and then seized the opportunity to launch an attack, their cries of killing resounding through the cave. Under their fierce counterattack, the masters of the mysterious organization were defeated step by step and were eventually repelled.

After repelling the enemy, they did not dare to delay for even a moment and continued to follow the monster towards the cave entrance.

After an unknown amount of time and arduous journey, they finally saw the light at the entrance of the cave.

The light was like a ray of hope, illuminating their tired hearts.

Li Zhao and others were excited and quickened their pace, as if they saw the hope of life right before their eyes.

Fate always seemed to like playing tricks on people. Just as they were about to reach the cave entrance, a familiar figure appeared like a ghost.

The leader of the mysterious organization stood at the entrance of the cave, holding a remote control in his hand and a hideous smile on his face, as if the smile came from a demon in hell.

"You think you can get away with this? You're so naive!"

His voice was icy and filled with endless sarcasm. He pressed the button on the remote control without hesitation.

In an instant, a series of deafening explosions sounded in the cave, and flames shot into the sky.

It turned out that he had already placed more bombs in the cave, trying to kill Li Zhao and others completely.

Li Zhao and others were stunned by this sudden change. Their eyes were full of shock and anger. They never expected that the leader of the mysterious organization was so insidious and cunning.

The monster was also frightened by the explosion. It ran around, roaring in fear, trying to find a safe place.

In the chaos, Li Zhao suppressed his inner fear and anger and quickly observed the surrounding environment.

Suddenly, he found a narrow passage on the side of the cave.

He felt a sudden impulse in his heart, as if he had grasped the last life-saving straw, and shouted loudly: "Everyone follow me, go from here!"

So, he took the lead and ran towards the passage. Su Mengyao and the Crown Princess followed closely behind him. The monster also followed them into the passage in a panic under their shouting.

The passage was narrow and dark, like an endless abyss.

They could only grope their way forward. The road under their feet was bumpy and there was a danger of falling at any time.

Behind them, explosions continued to sound, and rubble and smoke filled the passage, choking them and making it difficult for them to breathe.

Li Zhao and others did not dare to stop. They ran forward desperately with only one firm belief in their hearts: to survive.

After running for who knows how long, they finally heard a sound outside. The sound was like the sound of nature, bringing a little comfort to their tired hearts.

Li Zhao was delighted, he knew that they were about to get out.

When they reached the exit of the passage, they were disappointed by the scene before them.

The exit was blocked by a cold iron fence, which was like an insurmountable chasm, separating them from freedom.

Li Zhao and others looked at the iron fence in front of them, and their hearts were filled with despair again.

Their eyes revealed helplessness and confusion. They didn't know what was going on with the iron fence, nor did they know how to open it.

Just when they were extremely anxious, masters from the mysterious organization caught up with them.

"You have nowhere to escape!" The leading master sneered, and that laugh seemed like a declaration of death.

Li Zhao and others gripped their weapons tightly. Although their strength was exhausted and their bodies were shaky, their eyes still revealed an unyielding light.

They are prepared to make a final resistance and will never give up even if there is only a glimmer of hope.

Faced with the enemy's siege, they gradually became unable to cope, with more and more wounds on their bodies and blood staining their clothes red.

Just when they were about to collapse, the monster suddenly roared.

There was a flame of anger burning in its eyes, and it rushed towards the iron fence regardless of the pain on its body.

It used its strong body to hit the fence, and each impact made a dull sound. Its body was scratched by the fence and blood was flowing, but it still did not give up.

With the monster's unremitting efforts, the iron fence was knocked open.

Li Zhao and others took the opportunity to rush out and found themselves in an abandoned mine.

The mine was filled with a rotten smell and was dead silent all around.

Before they could catch their breath, the leader of the mysterious organization appeared again.

He stood on a high platform, holding a larger black ball in his hand, with a crazy smile on his face: "This time, none of you will leave alive!"

As he spoke, he threw the ball towards the center of the mine...
