My different world is game mode.

"Ms. Vivian!?"

The strange atmosphere naturally made people in the team start to panic.

Figus, who was standing next to Vivian and was mainly responsible for the wounded, immediately looked over with a nervous look.

Vivian said in a calm tone:

"Don't panic, keep your formation."

"We have a lot of people here, remember to protect the residents of the mines behind."

The soldiers obeyed the order and reorganized their formation.

They backed away, staring into the darkness deeper into the mine.

I encountered this scene again in desperation.

Even the soldiers who had been trained in the Forest City could not help but feel frightened, and could only retreat relying on the quality of their training.

"..."

For a moment, almost no one in the team spoke.

And just after they retreated about 10 meters, the thing in the darkness seemed to confirm something.

Then, sporadic sounds began to crawl out from inside.

And approached the crowd at an extremely fast speed!

Before the team fell into chaos, Vivian shouted:

"Keep in formation and don't get confused."

"Shoot before they get close!"

As soon as Vivian gave the order, the soldiers carrying bows and arrows immediately shot arrows into the darkness.

Accompanied by arrows being shot out.

Most of the attacks fell into darkness and soon there was no movement.

But a small number of arrows hit something, causing waves of painful and angry howls in the darkness.

"Roar--"

next second.

Some kind of dark liquid splashed out from the darkness, as fast as if someone was shooting an arrow in counterattack!

Vivian was still leading people to retreat.

Seeing this scene, before she had time to speak, Hongshi in the team did not dare to delay:

"Be careful, there is Essence in this attack!"

"I'm not sure whether it's the magic of the monster or the skill of humans, but you must not take it head-on..."

Nourishes—

The moment the words fell, the attack came.

Many people got the hint and dodged in time, but some were unlucky enough to be hit by the attack.

It was a soldier from the forest city.

The moment the liquid touched his arms, his clothes were corroded and burned immediately.

Soon, when this liquid came into contact with the skin, the soldier's body turned an abnormal and distorted green color, and then extended along the blood vessels to the torso.

"Ahhh!"

The soldiers wailed, and Vivian decisively gave the order:

"Cut off his hands and retreat!"

"Those with shields should stay behind to defend, and be sure not to get stuck with this liquid."

The miners in front were scrambling and rolling, while the guards behind were on high alert and retreated together.

Under the leadership of Vivian.

From time to time, arrows were shot out from the team, attacking the monsters in the dark.

The shouts of humans and the roars of monsters were heard alternately, but the pursuit in the dark never decreased, and no one retreated as they should have when they were injured.

"..."

Vivian frowned in thought.

There are two possibilities for this situation.

First, arrows could only anger the enemy but not actually kill them; second, the enemies were so numerous that attacks on the road could not cause significant casualties to the enemy!

As the minutes passed, the danger in the darkness grew closer.

Their position began to approach the range of torch lighting.

With the help of the firelight, Vivian could vaguely see some distorted zombie-like figures approaching them.

Look closely at the shapes of these guys.

They had almost lost all their human habits, and were moving forward with their fangs and claws bared. Upon closer inspection, they looked like evil spirits crawling out of hell.

Seeing this scene, Mir, who had been protecting Vivian, spoke up:

"Ms. Vivian, these things are definitely not right. Why don't I take you with me first..."

Before Mir finished speaking, Vivian shook her head and refused, and then proposed another idea:

"Remember, on the way here, we passed several places that were about to collapse!"

Mill is still unclear about the meaning of this sentence:

"what do you mean……?"

Hongshi on the other side immediately understood Vivian's idea:

"You want to use this to stop their pursuit!"

Vivian nodded and said:

"Yes, the collapsing tunnel will bring danger to us, but it can also block their pursuit!"

Vivian continued to confirm with Hongshi:

"Mr. Hongshi, there weren't these monsters in the mine before, right?"

Hongshi's expression was serious:

"I swear to you, how could such a thing exist in a small place like ours?"

Vivian nodded slightly:

"So they must have come here from deep underground through the crack opened by the earthquake - this also shows that they were unable to break through the soil before!"

"..."

The most taboo thing when escaping is to be aimless.

This often leads to big mistakes being made in a panic, which leads to the end of everything.

But with a clear goal, the situation is different.

Vivian organized the team, and everyone worked together and moved forward.

When they returned to the first section of the road that was about to collapse, there were only two people in the team. Unfortunately, they were sprayed with the liquid in the face and fainted on the spot.

"In front, right in front!"

First the mine dwellers, then the soldiers from the Forest City and Vivian herself.

After they hurriedly passed through the area, looking at the darkness approaching from behind, Vivian shouted out instructions:

"Destroy the tunnel here and block the road!"

They had already made plans on the way.

At this moment, Vivian spoke, and two soldiers stood in front with shields, while others in the back began to destroy the weak points of the wall.

Bang—click!

With the unremitting destruction, the wood supporting the mine was cut off one by one, and the rocks inside were quickly dug out.

But the twisted figure in the darkness became clearer and clearer.

The distance between the two sides is shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The situation is extremely urgent, life and death depend on a single moment!

At this time, Hongshi spotted a weak point in the wall that had been dug open by the soldiers.

"Get out of the way, I'll do it."

He shouted, and the source essence surged, and he kicked it. Then the rock loosened, as if a certain balance point was destroyed, and the entire tunnel began to collapse.

Rumbling--

Dust and rubble weighed down the darkness.

The mine tunnel was indeed completely blocked, and those things could not continue to chase.

"Everyone, let's move on."

"This place just collapsed and it's not safe either. We need to stay away from here as much as possible!"

Vivian did not dare to rest at all and encouraged people to continue evacuating.

The team took a few steps and just mobilized the source. Hongshi, who was now exhausted and panting, spoke:

"Ms. Vivian, we have gotten rid of them now."

"But the entire mine is interconnected. Just like we can take a detour to the bottom of Mine Tunnel No. 4, they can also take a detour to catch up with us!"

After this chase.

The awakened ones who originally wanted to hide no longer dared to conceal their identities.

When he took the initiative to speak, he was not only helping others, but also helping himself to escape!

Vivian nodded.

Her voice was a little messy due to running, but her spirit was very steady:

"Then let's go to the second mine you mentioned."

"No matter how dangerous these guys are, as long as we escape to the ground, our survival rate will be greatly improved!"
