Chapter 1250 What a Filthy Trick, They Release Toxic Substances Again!
They got into the passage.
All the people from the four countries acted with utmost caution.
The four gurus walked at the front, ready to deal with any unforeseen accidents.
After they walked for some time, they found to their surprise that the road they thought had a trap was actually accessible.
But…
While going through it, they encountered many traps that Fang Qiu had previously experienced in the maze.
For example, the quicksand area, the poisoned-arrow site, the Five-poison Sect, the haze zone, etc.
They kept on going.
Eighty percent of them suffered some injuries. As time went on, there were more and more people who were wounded. Even worse, they lost one or two people in the place that had poison.
However…
The four gurus were fine.
After all, they were much stronger than the others. Those traps in the maze were not powerful enough to hurt a guru!
In another place…
With extreme caution, Francis and Mousolini went ahead. On their way forward, they also ran into many blind alleys and all sorts of traps.
Compared to the teams from the four great countries, Francis and Mousolini’s group had fewer people. Given that, as they faced those tricks and traps, very few people took the initiative to have a try.
After continuous probes, almost all of them suffered from some form of injury.
But…
The gurus from the four great countries had united to fight against Francis and Mousolini, so they had been secretly healing themselves as they led the way. Gradually, they were getting better. It wouldn’t be long before they fully recovered.
After all, a guru could heal much faster than ordinary cultivators.
Over here…
The group had walked out of the maze.
Headed by Fang Qiu, they climbed up and soon arrived at a high place. On its opposite side was a massive tunnel.
They looked back.
Obviously, someone had dug open the middle part of this passage and built a maze below it.
“The owner of this relic opened up such a vast space and built a large maze. That is very impressive.”
Luoyun sighed with emotion.
“Yes.”
Fang Qiu sighed with feeling and echoed, “After all, the owner had left behind the Pharaoh relic. The ancient Egyptt Pharaoh should never be underestimated.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Indeed…
Anyone who could leave behind such an ancient relic must be an incomparably superior master, even in ancient times.
For example, the relic in Huaxia came from the Mo Group.
The Mo Group in ancient times…
This organization was second to none and had countless experts.
They all exclaimed in agreement.
After that, Fang Qiu led everyone forward.
This passage was precisely the same as before. It was remarkably wide, and they couldn’t see the end of this passage which looked like an endless corridor.
Under Fang Qiu’s guidance…
No one talked along the way, and they just kept walking forward.
To their dismay…
This tunnel was unusually long. Even after walking for a long time, they still couldn’t see the end.
“We should speed up.”
Luoyun reminded him, “The Egyptt group arrived at this place before us, and they have natural advantages in many aspects. We didn’t meet them in the maze, so they must have gotten out of the maze before us. Perhaps, the treasures of this relic were at the end of this passage. If we go on at this speed, I’m afraid we will have nothing to gain in the end.”
“Um.”
Fang Qiu nodded.
What Luoyun said made sense.
“Everyone, follow closely. Let’s accelerate.”
Fang Qiu waved his hand and shouted. Then he immediately sped up.
Everyone also moved ahead at a much faster speed.
In a flash…
They doubled their speed.
In the endless passage, everyone advanced fast and courageously. With Fang Qiu in the lead, they were not afraid at all.
They went forward…
Abruptly…
Fang Qiu raised his right hand with a jerk and motioned for everyone to reduce their speed.
Everyone slowed down at once.
Then…
They took a closer look.
There…
A group of people popped up before them.
They looked over the crowd carefully — they were the Egyptt group led by the guru Rahman!
However, because they had moved with astonishing speed, the loud sounds of their movement pierced through the air. As a result, when Fang Qiu and the others noticed the Egyptian group, they also turned around.
Everyone on the Egyptt side was shocked when they saw that Fang Qiu and the Huaxia group had caught up with them!
“Gosh, they?”
“Huaxia!”
“They’re people from Huaxia.”
“How could they get here so quickly? How was that possible?”
“Is it an illusion?”
“This place is the relic of an ancient Pharaoh! We have already made sure that the pyramid’s door was tightly blocked. Besides, there was a maze with countless traps and mechanisms they had to pass through. How could they catch up so quickly?”
“No, it can’t be real. Before we came in, they were all poisoned. It was impossible for them to detoxify themselves so quickly. How did they do it?”
All members of the Egyptt team were dumbfounded.
No one knew what was going on!
In their eyes…
Because of the poison and the maze full of traps and tricks in the pyramid, the people from other countries and forces couldn’t keep up with them.
Under such circumstances, when others caught up with them, they would have already taken everything in the relic away.
Against all expectations…
Fang Qiu, with the Huaxia group, appeared out of nowhere before them, which startled all of them, including Rahman, the guru.
Rahman didn’t understand.
What the hell was going on?
This situation apparently came as a complete surprise to him.
“Humph!”
He decisively made up his mind.
With a violent wave of his hand, Rahman plunged the long spear into the ground, his cold eyes riveted on Fang Qiu and the others who were approaching.
Over at the site…
“Everyone, watch out!”
Fang Qiu let out a warning.
Luoyun took the opportunity to step forward, ready to confront Rahman.
Just then…
“Close your mouths and noses. They released toxic substances again!”
Fang Qiu had been observing the Egyptt team with his Divine Consciousness. Clearly, he saw that after Rahman thrust the spear into the ground, he put his right hand behind his back and began gently rubbing his thumb and index finger together.
While he lightly kneaded his fingers…
A waft of colorless and odorless powder was released and it quickly spread out.
When Fang Qiu caught sight of his secretive act…
He understood why no one noticed it when they were all poisoned outside. It turned out that this kind of powder was colorless and odorless, just like dust in the air, which was difficult for the others to distinguish.
Over there…
When they heard Fang Qiu’s reminder, everyone immediately closed their mouths and noses and stopped breathing.
“Hmm?”
Fang Qiu’s words drew Rahman’s attention.
“So it was you!”
Rahman glared at Fang Qiu, and his face instantly darkened.
He understood.
How could these Huaxia people have caught up with him so quickly?
He realized that…
This guy named Well Known had not been poisoned at all.
They might even have followed them as they went through the maze. As Egypttians, they had a good understanding of all kinds of mechanisms and traps in the maze, so it was not difficult for them to pass through the maze. But how did the Huaxia people manage to move at the same rapid rate? Very likely, the Huaxia group had followed them closely and did whatever they had done to get through the maze.
With that in mind…
Rahman flew into a great rage.
Whether it was true or not, he believed it!
“Boom!”
The overwhelming aura of a guru erupted from his body as he stared stonily at Fang Qiu with icy killing intent in his eyes.
Right at this moment…
“Pa!”
Luoyun, unable to speak, took a step forward and stood before Fang Qiu. His internal Qi instantly spewed forth, and a fierce burst of guru-class aura rose rapidly.
The surroundings were immediately filled with Sword Qi, which soared to the sky!
With the start of a tit-for-tat struggle between the two gurus…
All the people on both sides were riled up and ready to fight at any time!
For the Egyptt group…
They had some concerns.
After all, what they feared most were Huaxia gurus who were born with great strength. Although Rahman had enough confidence, the emergence of this Huaxia guru’s aura was so piercing, like a sharp needle head, which made him panic.
As for the Huaxia people…
Each of them was very vigilant, yet they were not worried.
Others might not know the facts, but they did.
Besides Luoyun…
They had John Doe, who could slaughter a guru. The underground forces around the world regarded gurus as S-class experts, and John Doe was as formidable as an S-class or even an S+class expert.
Under these circumstances…
If the Egyptt team started a battle, they might suffer losses in the end.
John Doe’s peerless power would frustrate them all!
In the long and wide passage, the two sides were locked in a confrontation. The air was filled with a strong acrid smell of gunpowder, which seemed as if it would explode at any moment.
They were in a stalemate, and neither wanted to start the fight.
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
At this very moment, ear-piercing sounds of something breaking through the air suddenly came from behind them.
When they heard those unexpected noises…
All people from Egyptt and Huaxia frowned and looked back in a hurry.
Behind them…
The gurus of the four countries, Francis, and Mousolini rushed up toward them at the same time. Both sides took up half of the corridor as if a confrontation was about to take place.
Soon…
All of them arrived at the site.
Fang Qiu signaled with his eyes, and all the Huaxia team members gathered on the right side of the passage and occupied an area.
The four great countries behind them immediately took up the place near the wall on the left side.
Francis and Mousolini ended up in an extremely uncomfortable position.
It was because they could only stand in the middle with their enemies on both sides. Not only did they have to watch out for the Egyptt force in front of them, but they also had to be on guard against the forces on both sides. This made them feel exceedingly vulnerable and they even wanted to step back.
When so many people caught up with them, everyone’s faces grew solemn.
Those who came later were in an extremely awkward position.
But…
They had more gurus.
“That’s really strange indeed!
“How could they be so fast?”
Fang Qiu was secretly astonished.
He could advance fast because he got the parchment from the primitive tribe and could make his way out of the maze which was full of traps and mechanisms. But these forces didn’t have it. How could they catch up with them so quickly?
Over there…
Whether members of the four great countries or Francis and Mousolini, who had formed a temporary alliance, they all looked pleasantly surprised.
They had exerted themselves in their attempt to catch up.
After going through thick and thin, they finally made it.
However…
Because these people had been overhasty in their attempt to catch up with after the others, they gasped for breath upon their arrival.
Unexpectedly…
After they panted for a while…
Tiredness suddenly overcame them, and all of them felt limp and weak!
“Dammnit, you poisoned us again!”
“Despicable rogues! Using poison once again!”
“Shame on you!”
These people let loose a torrent of abuse.
Before them…
Fang Qiu and the others, who had kept their mouths and noses closed, and the Egyptt team eyed this group of people speechlessly.
