Chapter 783: We All Got Played by Su Yang!

…

Inside the Building Entity.

A spacious corridor.

"Cough cough~ We can't keep lingering, we can't hold out much longer, we must escape!"

Fu Yuan stared at the Springhead before him, his face grim.

He gripped the Shovel tightly, and behind him lay a huge Spider quietly.

The Spider was curled into a ball, its body covered with marks left by heavy blows.

Fu Yuan also bore many wounds, his thigh pierced, fresh blood gushing out.

Behind him stood Ji Huai and a few others.

The situation was equally worrisome.

Surrounded on three sides by Springhead, a familiar 'creak' of footsteps came from ahead.

"Where's the goods? Damn it, where the hell are the goods?!" Liu Pangzi was somewhat breaking down, shouting.

"Calm down, don't act rashly!" Ji Huai furrowed his Brow.

"Calm down? How can you make me calm, we've been walking for an hour, a full hour!" Liu Pangzi said in a low voice.

"Stop shouting nonsense, the three of us are still alive, maybe passing through this Door we can find the goods!" Ji Huai said.

"Ahead there are Walnut Pliers, behind us Slime follows, now surrounded by Springhead, we are… powerless to turn the tide." Liu Pangzi was deeply regretful, anguished.

Ji Huai said nothing, just stared quietly at the Springhead before him, his Brain racing Crazy, pondering a Retreat.

"What does Lin Jin say over there?"

"All the Gates on the right side of the Hall are dead ends, none are passable." Liu Pangzi shook his head.

"What about Su Yang and the others?" Ji Huai asked again.

"We haven't encountered them."

"Could they have already found the right path?" Fu Yuan was about to turn his head, but suddenly noticed the Springhead lurch forward a step, frightening him to stare fixedly.

He dared not slack off at all.

"That is possible," Ji Huai nodded slightly.

"Why don't we just go in through the back Door?" Liu Pangzi couldn't help asking.

"The back Door on this map is fraught with danger, more perilous than the front Door," Ji Huai explained, glancing at the Spider corpse beside him, and continued:

"Moreover, who says the back Door is necessarily a way out? What if it's also a dead end? We'd still have to trek back to the front Door."

"We've already spent so much time, lost so many people, we can't gamble any more."

The sunk cost has been thrown in so much.

Is it that we can just give up?

Moreover, we've already passed through so many Doors ahead.

There aren't many left.

Giving up now would mean the previous efforts go down the drain.

"But now we're all being targeted by the Springhead, how can we go?" Liu Pangzi was at a loss.

"First retreat, close the Door!" Ji Huai said.

Immediately the three retreated side by side, and Fu Yuan seized the chance to slam the Door shut!

"Bang!"

"We're alive!" Fu Yuan let out a long sigh of relief.

"Don't get too happy yet, the Springhead's hatred still lies on us, it's only temporarily lost its target, soon it will actively come after us," Ji Huai said.

Fu Yuan was stunned, "So as long as we move inside this Building Body, it will chase us to the death?"

"Unless we exit the Door, the hatred will keep following," Ji Huai nodded slightly.

"Damned it!" Fu Yuan slammed the Shovel hard onto the ground.

In this little over an hour, he couldn't count how many trials he endured.

It was no less than the ninety‑nine hardships the Tang monk faced on his western pilgrimage.

Had Ji Huai not discerned the Monster's weakness, he would have died hundreds of times already.

Yet even so, they have gained nothing so far.

The input and return are disproportionate, who would want to run a loss‑making venture?

Moreover, it's no longer a question of loss, there's none at all!

Fu Yuan even suspected this map had a BUG, it never refreshed the goods.

"Bang!"

The Door ahead suddenly opened, three Springheads crowded the entrance, staring at the three people motionlessly.

"Here we go again…" Fu Yuan pressed his forehead and sighed.

"This is even more nauseating than a dog‑skin plaster."

The Immortal's relentless stance truly tortures people.

At that moment, a writhing sound suddenly came from behind.

Fu Yuan's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

He knew, that was Slime searching for a target!

The first sight of that blue‑green Mucus‑like mass was in a two‑story study.

At that time Fu Yuan was cautious, taking one step and watching three paths.

He had made thorough preparations, having imagined countless forms of ferocious Monster shapes.

But I never expected this type of Monster to exist.

Back then he thought it was some strange cargo, just as he reached out to touch it his arm was brutally slapped by a Shovel.

At first Fu Yuan was very angry, thinking Ji Huai wanted to snatch the treasure he had discovered.

Then information about the Monster appeared on the helmet.

Frightened, he immediately retreated from the room.

But it was of no use; Slime is similar to Springhead, possessing a Spleen temperament that will pursue to the ends of the earth.

Now with wolves ahead and tigers behind, Fu Yuan felt utter despair.

He could not imagine any chance of survival at all.

"Su Yang and the others have gone out."

At that moment, a voice sounded from behind.

The three did not turn, yet they could tell it was Lin Jin's voice.

"How do you know?" Liu Pangzi asked without turning his head.

"I found the LifeGate; its interior branches are a maze, I tried several paths inward, but gained nothing."

"I didn't see the cargo, nor did I see any person."

"I just went out for a while and found three different footprints near the entrance."

"From the direction of the toe tips, they have already left," Lin Jin explained.

"What?" Liu Pangzi was instantly stunned.

"You've all been fooled, spun around without realizing," Lin Jin lamented, shaking his head.

Ji Huai's eyes widened slightly, "Stockpiling Insect!"

"What?" Liu Pangzi was a bit bewildered.

"Do you all still remember the door we first entered through?" Ji Huai asked in a low voice.

"Of course, we do; it almost took half my life," Fu Yuan nodded.

"The Stockpiling Insect's habit is to keep cargo in one spot, yet we saw no cargo there…" Ji Huai realized belatedly, his face looking uneasy.

"Isn't there candy?" Liu Pangzi still didn't understand.

"It's true it holds candy in its hand, but it shouldn't have only candy!"

"Ah?"

Ji Huai looked up, staring at the Springhead, unblinking, and said, "Our reasoning was completely wrong, utterly messed up!"

"That place isn't the Stockpiling Insect's territory; it seems more like it was teleported there!"

"The candy is the cargo it fetched, and it's preparing to go to the StoragePlace."

"I shouldn't have killed that insect; I should have let it lead the way!"

"What?!" Fu Yuan and Liu Pangzi were greatly shocked.

"It's Su Yang!" Ji Huai's face turned slightly feral, "He put on a great show for us, deceiving every one of us!"

……

Building Body back door.

Bang!

Qin Yu Zhou was slammed to the ground, and the cargo in his pocket fell out, scattering everywhere.

Su Yang picked up the golden cup that rolled beside his Foot, examined it carefully, and said slowly, "Gallbladder's not small…"

"You even dare to steal my things?"
