Feiying slowly opened her eyes, the glaring light made her squint.

Her consciousness gradually returned, but the scene before her made her wake up instantly.

Her hands were hung high up by rough hemp ropes, and her arms were completely numb from the long period of pulling.

She could only stand on tiptoes to keep her balance.

This uncomfortable position made her feel sore all over.

Turning around and looking around, I saw that my other companions were in the same bad situation.

Violet and Jasmine were tied tightly together back to back, the ropes cutting deep into their skin.

Even if they tried to struggle, they could only cause the other party to shake with them and could not break free at all.

Laurel was locked in a special iron cage, which was completely black and engraved with all kinds of strange runes.

These runes continued to absorb her power, preventing her from even using basic abilities.

Han Ling'er and Ye Lan's situation is even worse.

The two were tightly bound with specially made chains, with their hands and feet fixed.

There are also runes engraved on the chain, which is obviously a device specially used to deal with extraordinary people.

The entire underground space was filled with a suffocating and depressing atmosphere.

Although everyone was awake, no one spoke.

Only the sound of heavy breathing echoed in this closed space, exacerbating the feeling of oppression.

The light cast from the torches on the stone walls added a bit of eerie color to the place.

The shadows kept swaying on the wall, as if silently mocking their situation.

"Violet, Jasmine..."

Feiying muttered to herself in a trance.

Looking at the miserable condition of his companions, the anger in his heart was instantly ignited.

She clenched her teeth, her voice full of anger.

"That damn woman! How dare she play such a dirty trick on us!"

"It's my fault..."

Violet lowered her head, her voice full of loss and self-blame.

"I wanted to find Baiying so badly. I should have been more alert."

"As expected, the people of the Apostolic Order should not be trusted no matter what..."

At that time, they were racking their brains to find the traces of the golden survivors, hoping to find clues to enter the spiritual realm as soon as possible.

But after searching for so long in this vast desert, there was no progress.

Every clue that seemed promising ended up being dashed.

In this situation, Black Rose suddenly said that there was a way to open the door to the spiritual realm.

The temptation is too great.

Even though they knew this was most likely a trap, they couldn't help but be tempted.

They all wanted to see Baiying so much that this longing clouded their judgment.

As a result, he fell headfirst into the trap carefully set by the other party.

What's even more terrible is that Black Rose herself is a powerful supernatural being, and the poison gas attack prepared in advance has led to the current situation.

Laurel leaned against the iron cage, looking extremely solemn.

As a senior in the team, she is now regretting her error in judgement.

I clearly noticed something was wrong, but failed to alert everyone in time.

Jasmine lowered her head and said nothing, her eyes full of self-blame.

She is usually full of rationality, but at this moment she has fallen into an unprecedented depression.

The others also looked worried, obviously regretting their recklessness.

"Everyone, stop sighing here!"

Feiying suddenly raised her voice, her tone unquestionable.

"I'll find a way to rescue everyone right now!"

The voice just fell.

She began to struggle violently.

He twisted his body constantly, trying to break free from the ropes that bound his hands.

The rope rubbed against her wrists, causing waves of stinging, but she seemed not to feel the pain.

Seeing this, others also began to think about how to get out of the predicament.

Even though the situation was difficult, Feiying's actions still brought them a glimmer of hope.

"Humph, the same trick was used three times."

Feiying sneered, with a hint of disdain in her voice.

"Do you really think that I have made no progress at all? I have no preparation at all?"

talking.

She turned to look at Violet and lowered her voice:

"Violet, I have a knife hidden under my skirt."

"You find a way to get it out for me. I usually keep it hidden in a special scabbard just to prevent situations like this."

This sentence made Violet stunned for a while.

She stared at Feiying in amazement, her mind in a mess.

Ever since she met Feiying, she felt that this girl was extremely simple-minded and never thought too much before doing anything.

But what's going on now?

When did we learn to keep this kind of backup plan?

The other people present also looked at Feiying with incredible eyes.

Is this still the impulsive Feiying they know who never thinks too much?

When did you become so scheming?

Seeing everyone staring in amazement, Feiying suddenly became anxious:

"Don't look at me like that! I can't reach it myself, hurry up and find a way to get it out for me! Why are you still in a daze at this time?"

In this closed underground space, only Violet, who was tied nearby, could help.

Others were either locked in cages or chained away, making them impossible to approach.

Feiying tried to move her thighs closer to Ziluolan so that she could reach the knife hidden under her skirt.

She felt extremely exhausted.

But in order to escape, this sacrifice is nothing.

Soon, Violet had the knife in her mouth.

She made an inarticulate humming sound to indicate that she had got it.

There was still a trace of temperature on the blade, obviously having been kept close to Feiying for a long time.

Feiying immediately clamped the knife with her feet.

Her body suddenly showed amazing flexibility, and her whole body bent into an incredible arc like a cat.

It was the first time that the people present saw her perform such a difficult move.

In a flash, she cut the ropes that bound her hands and landed lightly on the ground.

The whole process went smoothly without any delay.

This series of actions stunned all the girls present.

"Wait a minute, I'll come and rescue you!"

Feiying quickly ran over to Violet and Jasmine, trying to cut the ropes that bound them.

The knife in his hand glowed coldly in the dim firelight.

"Don't waste your efforts."

Violet smiled bitterly, with helplessness in her tone.

"This is a specially made chain. It's not that easy to cut."

Feiying did not give up, and ran to Yuegui, Hanling'er and Yelan, trying to find a way to rescue them.

She even tried to use her demonic power to forcibly break these restraints.

However, as soon as he activated his demonic power, his entire body became limp and he had no strength at all.

"Damn it!"

Feiying gnashed her teeth, her eyes filled with anger.

"What do you mean? Why did you tie me up with just an ordinary rope? Are you looking down on me? Or..."

She suddenly realized something and her expression became even uglier.

It turned out that from the very beginning, Black Rose had never taken her seriously.

This contemptuous attitude is more unacceptable than any restraint.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, but there was nothing she could do.

In this situation, even if she regained her freedom, she would not be able to help others.

This feeling of powerlessness made her extremely irritated.

"Feiying, why don't you find a way to slip away first..."

There was a hint of worry in Violet's voice, and the anxiety in her eyes was obvious.

"We are all trapped here now, and the most important thing is to find reinforcements. If you stay here, the situation will only get worse."

"No! How can this be possible?"

Feiying rejected it immediately, with a determined look on her face, and she was shaking with excitement.

"How can I leave you and run away? If we have to go, we should go together! How can I leave you in a place like this?"

As she spoke, she tightened her grip on the knife in her hand.

The blade reflected a cold light under the fire, as if telling of the owner's unwillingness at the moment.

From childhood to adulthood, she has never abandoned her companions.

What's more, this time it was because of her underestimation of the enemy that everyone fell into such a predicament.

"Feiying, this is indeed the best solution at the moment."

Jasmine suddenly spoke up, her tone calm and rational.

She looked around and continued to analyze:

“Look at the situation we’re in now.”

"Senior Yuegui is locked in a specially made cage. Hanling'er and Yelan are chained and unable to perform even the most basic actions."

"Violet and I are also trapped and can't move."

She paused for a moment and continued her analysis:

"Even if you stay here, you can't help us."

"Besides, there are too many people and the target is too big, so it is inconvenient to move."

"If you escape alone, your chances of success will be much higher."

"As long as you can get out safely and find help, we still have hope."

"Otherwise, everyone will be trapped here, which will only make the situation more passive."

"Besides, you're not in a good condition right now."

Jasmine stared at Feiying's trembling body with burning eyes.

"The effects of the poison gas have not completely subsided. Forcing a fight will only make the injuries worse."

"The most important thing now is to preserve our strength and wait for help to come and rescue us."

"Moli is right." Yuegui also persuaded: "Now is not the time to act on impulse. You have to trust us, we will also find a way to delay time."

"Since Black Rose has gone to great lengths to capture us, she shouldn't be able to harm us in the short term."

Han Ling'er and Ye Lan also nodded in agreement:

"Yes, Feiying."

"You go first, we will all find a way to protect ourselves."

"The most important thing now is not to get everyone trapped here."

After listening to her companions' advice, Feiying had to admit that they made sense.

Given the current situation, she really can't help.

On the contrary, staying here might become a burden.

The most important thing now is to find help as soon as possible to truly solve the current dilemma.

Just as Feiying was gritting her teeth and thinking about a countermeasure, there was suddenly a burst of hurried footsteps outside, accompanied by the sound of conversation.

"There seems to be some movement here!"

"Go and have a look!"

Two patrolling Apostles appeared at the door and immediately spotted Feiying moving freely.

Their faces changed drastically and they immediately sounded the alarm:

"Damn! The prisoner is trying to escape! Go and inform the master!"

Feiying clenched her teeth and endured the discomfort coming from her body.

Even though the effects of the toxin hadn't completely worn off, I felt a tingling sensation all over my body.
