Chapter 42 A Surprising "Support"

Chen Ye and his two companions crept stealthily toward the mine shaft where the guards had left.

Carefully check to see if any other guards remain, to avoid another battle.

After carefully examining the mine for a while, they found no guards.

Before the three of them went inside, Chen Ye first went to the huge machine that produced the fog of madness.

Although some guards died at the hands of these machines, it was their own fault, and there was nothing to pity about them.

I originally intended to investigate how the guardians who created this fog of folly managed to do so.

This creates the fog of ignorance that represents the 'concept'.

No matter what angle you look at it from, you can never discover the secret within.

The three then had no choice but to give up and continue searching inside the mine to find out more about the guards.

"Let's go, there's nothing more to investigate here. Let's continue our investigation into the mines where the guards left."

Chen Ye said helplessly to the two of them.

Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming nodded.

Having just inspected the mine and finding no danger, the three of them decisively walked into the mine.

As the three ventured deeper into the mine, they found little information beyond the numerous routes and layouts within.

"It would be great if we had instructors with rulers for spatial surveying."

Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but think of the instructor with the ruler and expressed his thoughts.

Hearing Wang Xiaoming's request behind him, Chen Ye simply shook his head slightly and sighed softly.

They then continued searching for a way out of the labyrinthine mine.

Since arriving at this inconspicuous underground mine, Chen Ye had been very puzzled.

"What do you think these people are trying to do?"

"It's definitely not as simple as just the 'Mist of Folly' hiding here as the creator."

Neither of the two people following behind gave a reply, nor could they explain the intentions of these people.

"As you said, if it's just about creating the 'Mist of Foolishness,' then it's too simple."

Although Lin Su did not directly answer Chen Ye's question, she echoed his thoughts.

"There's one more thing."

Chen Ye stopped and turned to look at the two people behind him.

"That huge machine has been operating here for so long, yet no one has noticed anything amiss. This is very unusual."

Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming both nodded.

"That's right, although the noise from this machine isn't very loud."

"However, we didn't even notice this continuous stream of pink mist being released outwards on our way here," Lin Su said, sharing her thoughts.

Chen Ye nodded. "That's right, that's the reason. It shows that they created the 'Mist of Foolishness' not to spread it, but perhaps out of necessity..."

"If they need this 'Mist of Foolishness,' what do they intend to do?"

Wang Xiaoming also stated his own question.

"Furthermore, the equipment they wore was the same as that of the guards on the city wall, which is also a direction worth investigating."

Chen Ye continued to share his views.

Despite this discussion, the three of them failed to come up with any useful answers.

Some have only countless, inexplicable questions.

Unable to obtain any useful information from their discussion, the three decided to continue searching for a way out.

"The fact that they were able to get here means there must be an exit from here," Chen Ye said.

The two nodded in agreement.

As the three ventured deeper into the area, they soon discovered an elevator.

From a distance, around the elevator, there were some guards who had just fought.

The three dared not make any rash moves and could only slowly approach the elevator.

Faced with this situation, the three of them couldn't think of any way to safely board the elevator and leave.

Just as Chen Ye and his two companions were wondering how to leave this place...

Suddenly, a dark figure descended from above the elevator.

His methods were swift and decisive, and his abilities were extremely resolute.

In an instant, the four guards who were watching over the elevator all met their end at that man's hands.

After seeing this scene, Chen Ye did not walk forward, but looked into the distance, trying to see the person's face clearly.

But the unfamiliar faces left Chen Ye completely bewildered, unsure whether they were friend or foe.

As time slowly passed, another figure leaped down from the elevator and stood beside the person.

The second person to come down looked in Chen Ye's direction.

"Come out, Chen Ye. It's me, Tang Shouyi."

When Chen Ye heard this familiar name, he realized that the person in front of him was Tang Shouyi, whom he had met at the martial arts training ground.

Chen Ye then emerged from behind the mine wall, walked up to Tang Shouyi, and asked, "How did you end up here?"

"It was Teacher Wulong who sent me to help you."

"He foresaw that you would be in danger and sent me to help you."

Tang Shouyi explained to Chen Ye why he had come here.

Chen Ye looked at the other person next to Tang Shouyi and asked, "Who is this?"

"He is my senior, Cao Hui."

Tang Shouyi introduced it to Chen Ye.

"Hello, I am Chen Ye. Thank you for saving me, brother." Chen Ye introduced himself and expressed his gratitude.

Just then, Wang Xiaoming, who had come closer, said excitedly, "Brother, what skill! The kill was so swift."

Cao Hui quickly replied modestly, "This is all thanks to Brother Shouyi's abilities. That's why I was able to kill him directly."

The three of them turned their gazes to Tang Shouyi at the same time, looking at him with gratitude.

Tang Shouyi waved his hand nervously and said, "It's no problem, it's nothing, just what I can do."

Then Chen Ye asked his question, "Brother Tang, how did you find us?"

"It's the monitoring device on your wrists; it's a common location tracking device for all Night's Watch members."

Tang Shouyi explained to Chen Ye and the other two.

"I see."

"We shouldn't stay here any longer; we need to leave first."

At Chen Ye's suggestion, the group took the elevator and left the mine.

When everyone took the elevator to the top, the scene that appeared before Chen Ye and the other two was actually not far from the mine.

Standing here, you can see the entire mine and the whole town of Fuluo.

Chen Ye stepped out of the elevator, looked at the whole scene, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"This place is so close to the mine, why don't the people of Fuluo Town know that there is an elevator here?"

Chen Ye couldn't help but mutter to himself.

At this moment, Chen Ye recalled the time when the hunter told him about the strange situation down below.

We should have realized that something was wrong with the hunter.

Why does he know so much, which is why the situation here has remained unresolved?

Then Chen Ye turned to Tang Shouyi and asked, "Do you know a man dressed as a hunter in Fuluo Town?"

When Tang Shouyi heard about this person, he was full of doubt, clearly unaware of the person's existence.

But what he said next sent a chill down Chen Ye's spine.

"There has never been anyone dressed as a hunter in Fuluo Town."

"Where did you meet this person?"

Tang Shouyi explained to Chen Ye.

"I've never seen this person before?" Chen Ye asked, puzzled.

Lin Su, at this moment, also expressed her doubts: "This person isn't here? We clearly saw him when we went down into the mine. He's a villager from this village."

Tang Shouyi, however, wore a puzzled expression.

Even Cao Hui, who was by Tang Shouyi's side, couldn't help but explain, "The people around the 'White Pagoda' have always had information stored within it. The characteristics or information of the person you mentioned do not exist within the information tower."

When Cao Hui gave these answers, Chen Ye and the other two looked shocked and incredulous.

Chen Ye then said, "Could it be that the man wasn't a hunter, or even someone from this village? The information he gave me earlier was simply to send us down here to our deaths."

When Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming heard Chen Ye's explanation of the situation, they were both shocked by the man's scheme.

"I see!"

"So that's how it is."

Lin Su couldn't help but sigh, "Thankfully, we weren't hurt at all."

At this moment, Chen Ye suddenly spoke up, "When we were attacked by those guards, that person might have been in the crowd, or rather, he might have been the officer in charge of those guards!"

Summarize everything that has happened so far.

The situation described by Chen Ye is the true outcome.

"When they attacked us, they probably thought we were already dead."

"They might lower their guard."

Wang Xiaoming then spoke up, sharing his thoughts.

Chen Ye frowned and nodded slightly.

Tang Shouyi, standing beside him, asked with a puzzled look, "What do you mean, 'They thought you were dead'?"

Chen Ye noticed the topic and suddenly changed the subject. Just as Chen Ye was about to say something, Wang Xiaoming answered the question about what had happened.

After Wang Xiaoming explained everything to Tang Shouyi, Tang Shouyi looked completely incredulous!

"A mysterious space!"

"This is a truly groundbreaking discovery!"

Tang Shouyi exclaimed in shock.

Even Cao Hui, who was standing next to him, was shocked by this incident.

After listening to Wang Xiaoming's story, Tang Shouyi forcibly suppressed his excitement.

"Let's go back to the White Pagoda first."

"We need to inform the members inside the 'White Tower' about what happened."

"How about we ask for their opinion?"

Tang Shouyi spoke up, asking Chen Ye and the other two for their opinions.

Chen Ye and the other two exchanged glances and agreed that the method was feasible.

He then got up, returned towards the direction of the "White Tower," and set off to carry out his mission.

However, Chen Ye never intended to keep what he had seen a secret.

If one were to try to persuade Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming, they might be met with skepticism, putting themselves in a dilemma.

Therefore, Chen Ye believed that even if such a thing were told, it would be impossible to find the location of that mysterious space again.

After all, even he himself could not return to that space.

The reason was that the glowing giant tree and the warning from the three flowers both proved that that space was a place that he could not currently enter.
