The skulls were being piled into a stone wall, densely packed, but some heads with flesh and blood were looking at them in terror.
Suddenly, they were startled.
What was going on? Why were there heads inside?
Were they all in the water?
"Gurgle gurgle..."
Bubbles rose from Captain Bai's oxygen mask.
"Let's go, let's go."
Professor Xuanxue stammered, speaking unclearly, and then made a waving gesture.
The students behind him hurried to follow, worried that the heads might suddenly bite them.
As they worried, the heads looked at them in terror.
Their mouths were still opening and closing, and their bloodless faces were filled with fear.
"Gurgle gurgle."
Several students, upon seeing this, swam desperately.
"No... no..."
Bubbles emerged from the mouths of the heads, about to leave the stone wall and pursue.
Just as they were about to get close, a large black hand mercilessly grabbed them back.
And the flesh and blood on their faces instantly shriveled, eventually turning into skeletons.
The student had no time to look back at the danger behind them and swam desperately.
In the live stream.
"Oh my god, I was scared to death. That head almost caught up to them. That was too dangerous!"
"Isn't it? But did the head say something from its mouth? Why was it gurgling, and then it was gone? Why is it gone?"
"I don't know. It's probably because it saw it couldn't catch up."
"But where did the big shot go? Why don't we see the big shot?"
...
Captain Bai, at the very front, saw a beam of light, no, two beams of light.
They were in the shape of a Tai Chi.
One red and one white.
But in the red area, a pair of feet had already climbed up.
Captain Bai and Professor Xuanxue exchanged glances, thinking this was likely Zhou Lin, and followed without hesitation.
"Professor, slow down."
Captain Bai went up first, took off his oxygen tank, and pulled Professor Xuanxue up.
Then came Guo Liang, and the other students. The mercenaries below were helping Captain Bai get the students up.
As everyone went up one by one, they looked at the environment, panting.
The surroundings were filled with red light, but where this light came from was still unknown.
"That's strange, why don't we see Professor Zhou Lin? He wouldn't wait for us, would he?"
Captain Bai finally realized something was wrong, that there seemed to be a problem.
"That shouldn't be. We saw Zhou Lin come up from here. Could it have been an illusion?"
Professor Xuanxue also felt something was wrong and quickly looked around the environment, but did not see Zhou Lin's figure.
"Let's rest for a while, and then we'll go check the white opening below. Maybe we saw it wrong?"
Professor Xuanxue gasped for air and said quickly.
Captain Bai thought the same, but for now, they should recover their strength.
The others also felt that without Zhou Lin, they were like a headless chicken, lacking a sense of security.
Even if they were to see that terrifying skeleton later, they would prefer to find Zhou Lin. Compared to that, Zhou Lin's absence was far more terrifying than the skeleton.
But when they rested and wanted to go back into the water, they found they couldn't.
Everyone's hearts sank.
"What's going on? Why can't we go down?"
Captain Bai looked at his suspended feet. He was clearly standing at the entrance of the opening, so why couldn't he go down?
Below was an empty body of water, but they just couldn't go down.
Not only Captain Bai was shocked, but Professor Xuanxue and Guo Liang were also shocked.
They felt as if they were surrounded by something, with no way out.
"Professor, what do we do? Can't we get out now?"
"Yes, we don't even know where we are. Will we encounter any danger?"
"What do we do? I really miss Professor Zhou."
The students around them, seeing this, were filled with alarm and fear.
In the live stream.
"What's going on? Is the big shot not in here? Then where is the big shot?"
"Are you all brainless? Are all of you in Great Xia stupid? You can even lose track of one person? Are you all useless?"
"Yes, you can even lose track of someone you're following. You're really stupid."
"You talk too much. Your professor is also stupid, and he stupidly got himself killed. It's really laughable."
"I also saw the big shot come up from underwater. He came from here, so why did it change?"
...
At this moment, Zhou Lin.
"What the heck is going on?"
Zhou Lin had been using his flashlight to illuminate the way for them, but later he found that they hadn't followed. When he turned back, he saw that the professor and the mercenaries had been caught by something and were all unconscious.
Finally, to prevent them from using up their oxygen tanks, he had to carry them one by one into a cave.
Who knew that as soon as they came up, they saw this situation.
These people had looks of terror on their faces. What was going on?
Did they see something?
Zhou Lin then surveyed the cave and saw some carvings on the wall.
"Huh?"
Zhou Lin got up and went to look at the top, and saw a group of people surrounding something in the middle, but this person was placed in a pot.
There was a fire underneath, which was being lit.
The positions where they were standing were also a bit strange, like a formation.
There were also some words on top.
The handwriting was vigorous, but...
There was also a width on top, and it was impossible to tell what it was carved from.
'Ghost in a dream, consuming essence, becomes great power.'
The words above confused Zhou Lin.
What did this mean? So the thing being boiled with fire just now was a ghost in a dream?
Zhou Lin finally understood why these guys were like this. It turned out they had fallen into its trap.
That shouldn't be. This requires a medium. How did they fall for it?
Thinking of this, Zhou Lin quickly looked at them.
But on Captain Bai and the others, he found a strand of hair that did not belong to them, hanging on their bodies.
Zhou Lin suddenly understood.
They were all trapped in a dream now, and it would be difficult to rescue them.
"System, any good recommendations?"
Zhou Lin quickly asked, and an electronic page appeared in his mind, with many recommendations.
But an incense burner caught their attention.
Dark Fragrance Censer, which can quickly reach anyone's dream.
Zhou Lin looked at the manual, his eyes lit up.
