"Caw." Bai nodded, it smelled human here, not Lizardman.
Lin Yue had a hypothesis.
Humans who come specifically to Zone C2 from other areas... who exactly might they be?
Lin Yue thought of that person from his hypothesis. Could it be him? Check latest chapters at novelꜰire.net
He set up an iron block wall again to block the passage, but he knew that next time, if he wanted to enter here, he would have to seal it more tightly.
Following Bai back to the familiar giant room, it was as hollow as before, but with the high temperature, it felt even more stifling.
The flashlight swept across the vast space, and Lin Yue quickly spotted two round stone blocks that had been pressed down. These were things he had clearly cleaned up last time, yet now they reappeared.
The passageway beside the mural was also completely open.
He thought of the gap in the iron wall just now.
The image of that person in his hypothesis seemed to become clearer and clearer.
This person later returned to have a look, indeed came back to check it out.
The reason might be the system-wide announcement notifying all humans that he had broken through Zone C2 and Zone C.
This person, because of this, came back to see what actually happened in Zone C, as that place was originally buried, and after being broken, the corpses scattered everywhere would be discovered.
In his guess, this person definitely figured out the ability of a guaranteed treasure chest drop, so after he arrived, this person came back to verify their idea.
And those Lizardmen from before were possibly from Zone C, and the Little Ice Lizards in the Ice Lizard Cave, probably as well...
Just then, Lin Yue suddenly heard a commotion, and the Little Six who had been on his shoulder at that time also darted out.
"Puchi! Puchi puchi!"
A large group of white figures suddenly appeared, and their cries also surprised Lin Yue.
The Little Ice Lizard swarm!
The sudden appearance of these little white creatures didn’t surprise Lin Yue.
What surprised him was, the number of Little Ice Lizards in the Ice Lizard Cave was definitely not just a few dozen, where were the others?
"Puchi puchi!" The Little Ice Lizards were bouncing energetically in front of Lin Yue and Bai, seemingly trying to convey something, while Bai and Little Six also echoed with low roars beside them.
"Caw." Lastly, Bai pointed at the passage connecting to Zone C, indicating for Lin Yue to move in that direction.
"Something urgent must have happened at the Ice Lizard Cave, right?" Lin Yue seemed to have some conjectures.
Now, his body was already soaked in sweat; the temperature inside these Underground Ruins was dangerously high.
Lin Yue looked at Bai and Little Six; they too seemed to be struggling to hold on, while the Little Ice Lizards were also looking dejected, seemingly growing more unwell the longer they stayed in this unbearably hot Underground Ruins.
Lin Yue gave the Little Ice Lizards some water and food, which they consumed as quickly as possible and slightly recovered, calling out again with apparent urgency.
Bai and Little Six led the way in front, and the Little Ice Lizards followed closely behind them through the passage, returning to Zone C, and then, without stopping, rushed straight toward the Ice Lizard Cave.
Lin Yue also noticed changes in the giant room in Zone C; the central circle had been disturbed.
He knew this was the work of that mysterious figure.
"If I catch this guy, I must eliminate him immediately!" The secret must not be discovered, and this person, originally a beggar, knew too many secrets and had obtained so many treasure chests as well as quite a bit of Storage Space. He was now an enormous hidden threat.
Now, there’s one thing that’s certain.
This mysterious individual, who knows his secret, hasn’t spilled it.
If the world knew about his guaranteed treasure chest drop ability... what would happen?
The coming days would likely be like a "fugitive" scenario, with him constantly on the run while everyone else tried to catch him.
"Caw!" Bai suddenly roared, stopping in the middle of the path, and Lin Yue also heard a cacophony of noises coming from afar ahead.
The sound of weapons clashing and the shouts of people and Lizardmen were ceaseless and rather loud!
At this moment, they were still not far from the Turtle Crocodile’s corpse at the intersection of Zone C, yet the sounds were coming from further ahead, growing louder as they proceeded!
"Puchi puchi!" The Little Ice Lizards cried continuously, appearing quite anxious, racing from the back to the very front.
