Quick Transmigration: I'm the Villain's Assistant to the Protagonist

The dimly lit passageway was filled with a putrid smell, and the ground was incredibly slippery; one wrong step and you could easily slip and fall.

The group moved forward cautiously, their lights only illuminating a small area in front of them, making it feel as if unknown dangers might pounce out of the darkness at any moment.

As they walked, a bottomless ravine suddenly appeared ahead, blocking their path.

A pungent odor permeated the ravine, and the faint sound of rushing water could be heard.

"What should we do?" Chen Xue's voice trembled slightly.

"Don't panic, let's see if we can find another way to get around it," Zhou Yifeng said.

They groped along the edge of the ravine, only to find that both sides were steep rock walls that were impossible to climb.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Lin Shuang discovered a dilapidated stone bridge spanning the ravine, but the bridge looked shaky and seemed about to collapse at any moment.

"Is this bridge safe to cross?" Xu Jiayi asked worriedly.

"There's no other way, we can only give it a try. Everyone, go through one by one, be careful." Zhou Yifeng decided to take the risk.

Despite being terrified, Shen Ying, driven by her physical instincts, was the first to step onto the stone bridge. With each step, the stone bridge creaked and groaned, sending chills down everyone's spines.

Just as she was halfway there, a huge bat suddenly rushed out of the darkness and pounced on her.

Shen Ying nimbly dodged to the side, almost losing her balance and falling off the stone bridge.

The team members behind her held their breath in suspense. Finally, Shen Ying crossed the stone bridge safely. The others followed suit, struggling across the dangerous stone bridge amidst tension and fear.

Before they could even catch their breath, they heard another rustling sound coming from behind them.

Looking back, they saw a dense swarm of black insects rushing towards them like a tide.

"Run!" Zhou Yifeng shouted, leading everyone to flee forward as fast as they could.

Led by Zhou Yifeng, the group fled frantically, the rustling sound growing ever closer, as if the footsteps of death were relentlessly pursuing them.

Their breathing became increasingly rapid, and their hearts pounded like drums.

As Shen Ying ran for her life, she glanced back in terror. She saw the swarm of insects, like a black torrent, surging in wave after wave, getting closer and closer, as if it would mercilessly devour them with overwhelming force.

Oh my god, even she, who has never been afraid of densely packed objects, felt like she was about to develop trypophobia from this terrifying sight!

Suddenly, a fork in the road appeared ahead.

"Which way?" Xu Jiayi asked in a panic.

Without a second thought, Zhou Yifeng pointed to the passage on the left and shouted, "This way!"

The group quickly turned to the left, but as soon as they entered, they found that it was a narrow passage that could only accommodate one person at a time.

"One at a time, hurry up!" Zhou Yifeng urged.

The team members squeezed into the passage one by one, but the swarm of insects behind them had already reached the fork in the road.

Su Yuze was at the very back, and he felt the insects touch his heels.

"Hurry up, Su Yuze!" the person in front shouted.

Just as Su Yuze was about to enter the passage, several insects crawled onto his leg. He shook his leg forcefully, trying to get rid of the insects.

"Never mind that, come in quickly!" Lin Shuang reached out and pulled him inside.

The group struggled forward through the narrow passage, unsure what dangers lurked in the darkness.

Finally, they saw a glimmer of light ahead.

"Is it for export?" Chen Xue asked hopefully.

They quickened their pace, and when they emerged from the passage, they found themselves in a huge cave.

The cave was filled with thick fog, obscuring the path ahead.

"Be careful, everyone, don't get separated," Zhou Yifeng reminded them.

They cautiously entered the cave, when suddenly they heard a low roar.

"What is this?" Xu Jiayi's voice was filled with fear.

At that moment, a gigantic monster slowly emerged from the thick fog...

The monster was enormous, resembling a lion but with sharp fangs and eyes burning with eerie blue flames.

With each step it took, the ground trembled slightly.

Everyone was instantly gripped by fear, their legs feeling as if they were being crushed by lead weights, unable to move an inch.

Despite his fear, Zhou Yifeng raised his weapon and shouted, "Don't be afraid, everyone! Attack together!"

However, his voice sounded so small in the vast cave.

The monster opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a scorching breath, causing everyone to retreat.

Shen Ying steadied herself, took out a bottle of potion from her backpack, and threw it at the monster.

The potion emitted a pungent fumes the moment it came into contact with the monster.

The monster's attack was temporarily halted by the smoke. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the team members launched their own attack.

Lin Shuang's crossbow bolts rained down on the monster, while Su Yuze controlled a homemade explosive device and threw it at the monster's feet.

Enraged, the monster lunged at the group. Chen Xue couldn't dodge in time and fell to the ground.

"Chen Xue!" Xu Jiayi exclaimed.

Just as the monster was about to pounce on Chen Xue, Zhou Yifeng rushed over and pushed Chen Xue away.

Zhou Yifeng used too much force and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the monster immediately shifted its target and pounced on Zhou Yifeng.

Shen Ying was extremely anxious. She quickly drew a dagger from her waist and threw it at the monster's eyes.

The dagger grazed the monster's cheek, missing its eye but slowing its movements for a moment.

Lin Shuang and Su Yuze continued their attack, trying to draw the monster's attention.

Lin Shuang fired her crossbow bolts at the monster one after another, while Su Yuze kept throwing various homemade weapons.

At this moment, Xu Jiayi helped Chen Xue up, and the two quickly hid behind a large rock.

Zhou Yifeng took the opportunity to get up and stand with Shen Ying.

"This can't go on, we have to find its weakness!" Zhou Yifeng shouted.

Shen Ying's eyes were sharp as she watched the monster's every move. Suddenly, she noticed that the monster's right side moved slightly slower each time it attacked, as if the right side was its weak point.

"Attack its right side!" Shen Ying shouted.

Zhou Yifeng understood immediately, a resolute glint in his eyes. He gripped the longsword that gleamed with a cold light and charged towards the monster's right side like an arrow released from a bow.

The monster's eyes, burning with rage, instantly sensed his intention. It let out a deafening roar, its massive body whirling around as it swung its sharp claws to strike back at Zhou Yifeng.

At this critical moment, Shen Ying did not hesitate at all. She gritted her teeth and threw the rope in her hand with all her might.

The rope, like a nimble snake, snagged precisely on the monster's thick hind legs.

Shen Ying gripped the rope tightly, her feet firmly planted on the ground, the veins on her arms bulging, pulling with all her might.

The monster was restrained by the sudden, powerful pull, and its movements became sluggish.

Zhou Yifeng seized this perfect opportunity, pushed off with both legs, and leaped high into the air. His long sword drew a dazzling arc in the dim cave, stabbing fiercely at the monster's right side.

However, the monster did not give in easily. It struggled desperately, trying to break free from the ropes and Zhou Yifeng's attacks.

Just as Zhou Yifeng's sword was about to pierce its target, the monster suddenly twisted its body, causing the sword to only graz its right side, leaving only a shallow wound.

Zhou Yifeng did not give up. He adjusted his posture again and thrust the sword out once more.

This time, his gaze was more determined, and his movements were more swift.

Finally, the longsword pierced deep into the monster's right side, and the monster let out a painful and desperate howl.

The monster let out a painful roar, collapsed to the ground, struggled a few times, and finally stopped moving.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, slumped to the ground, their faces filled with exhaustion and relief at surviving the ordeal.
