Chapter 78: Imprisoned as a law enforcement officer
"Catch the lawbreakers!" The mechanical voice had barely finished speaking when seven or eight strange creatures made of bones immediately surrounded them.
"Xiao Fu, what should we do next? Should we just run away?" Yu Wenwen's nervous gaze unconsciously fell on the alleyway next to them.
As the skeleton drew closer, Yu Wenwen and the others became tense.
Seeing Fu Xi deep in thought, Yu Wenwen was instantly furious. "Fu Xi, what are you thinking about? Run!"
Yu Wenwen lifted her foot, ready to run towards an empty alley, but was immediately grabbed by the arm by Fu Xi.
"Xiao Fu, what are you doing? If you won't run, can't you let me run?" The others also cast questioning glances at them.
"Brother Fuxi, is something wrong?" Lu Lin asked tentatively.
"Didn't you notice anything amiss?" Fu Xi asked coldly.
"Something's not right?" The group looked at the approaching skeleton and then at the empty alley to their left.
"Are you saying that's a trap?" Lu Lin immediately realized, and the others gradually followed suit.
"Indeed, the Boundless Land is a complex and intertwined place. Not to mention that we don't know the way at all, even if we did, it's very likely that it's a trap left behind by Ying Gu," Fu Xi analyzed seriously.
"They clearly had a purpose in leading us here. And if they had a purpose, would they simply tell you the way out?"
After Fu Xi's analysis, the others gradually calmed down.
At this moment, seven or eight skeletons also came within ten meters, and could rush to Fuxi's side in a few seconds.
"Brother Fuxi, what do we do next?" Lu Lin asked.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place! Let's rush over!" Fu Xi's eyes lit up, and she immediately made a decision.
"Let's go, drive these bone men back. We can't use our powers, so they probably can't either!" Fu Xi immediately pulled out a pistol from her waist.
At this moment, the skeleton had already come within five meters, and a huge hand revealing bare white bones suddenly slapped towards them.
"Bang! Bang!" The bullets were fired instantly, the giant hand snapped in two, and the skeletal figure fell backward.
"As expected, they can't use their powers either, otherwise they wouldn't have been so easy to kill. Charge out!" Fu Xi gained confidence and charged forward with her gun.
Fu Xi and his group fought with increasing ferocity, and four of the seven bone men were immediately eliminated. This scene was witnessed by Ying Gu from afar.
"This Fu Xi is really clever. If he had taken another alley, he might be dead by now!" Ying Gu's face was contorted with rage beneath the mask.
"But it doesn't matter, your bullets and strength will eventually reach their limit!" Ying Gu took out a golden token from his waist and then disappeared into the distance.
Meanwhile, the skeletons on Fuxi's side had been mostly dealt with.
"Bang!" After Fu Xi finished off the last skeleton, the others gradually relaxed.
The most excited person was Yu Wenwen, who immediately collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted.
"Hey, finally got rid of these skeletons. Their skin was too thick; I couldn't have taken them down by just standing there with my fists!"
"Yeah, without superpowers, it's too hard to fight!" Wang Fei was no longer in a dashing mood.
"Xiao Fu, don't you have any spare weapons? Let me use them!" Yu Wenwen put her sights on Fu Xi, but it was clear that Fu Xi had no choice.
"If I had one, I would have given it to you long ago. Why would I stand in front with a broken pistol?" Fu Xi said speechlessly.
Not only them, but Lu Lin, who was standing to the side, was also in a bad situation. Without his superpowers, he could only rely on the Barrett rifle in Su Rong's hands for relief.
"Brother Fuxi, let's go quickly, I feel..." Before Lu Lin could finish speaking, an accident occurred.
A skeletal figure suddenly appeared behind him, and the skeletal hand had already struck down. However, at this critical moment...
A long spear suddenly appeared on Lu Lin's shoulder.
"Bang!" The sound of gunfire rang out, and the skeleton behind Lu Lin immediately fell down.
"Captain, are you alright?" Su Rong quickly helped Lu Lin up from the ground.
"fine!"
At this moment, Fu Xi, who was not far away, also came over. "What's going on? Wasn't the Bone Man dealt with? Could it be...?"
Before Fu Xi could finish speaking, the sound of running could be heard all around, followed by a huge crowd of skeletons blocking all their directions.
"How come there are so many? We had a hard time fighting seven or eight, and now there are at least several hundred, right?" Yu Wenwen looked at the scene in shock.
Before he could think, hundreds of skeletons had already charged in.
"Stand back to back! Don't get ganged up on! Where did they come from?" Fu Xi shouted.
Ying Gu witnessed this entire scene from afar, and he watched with a cold laugh, "Tsk tsk, a few can't stop you, then I'll send in hundreds!"
"If you don't die now... I'll eat you..." Ying Gu was shocked by what happened next before he could finish speaking.
At this moment, Fu Xi and her group were steadily approaching the alleyway where masks were sold.
"Xiao Fu, I can't take it anymore!"
"Hold on and stick with me. If I'm not mistaken, these skeletal beings' killing patterns are the three rules of the Boundless Land!"
"Excluding buying on credit and showing up in public, there's only one possibility left: the location is wrong!"
"We're very close to that masked alleyway we went to before, let's go back there first!" Fu Xi's eyes lit up, and she immediately made a decision.
"Bang! Bang!" Fu Xi led the way with her pistol, but soon all the bullets were used up.
"What? We're out of bullets at this crucial moment!" Fu Xi threw the pistol aside and looked at Lu Lin behind her.
"Lu Lin, do you still have bullets...? I have..." Fu Xi hadn't finished speaking.
Then came Lu Lin's weak voice, "Boss Fuxi, Su Rong has run out of bullets!"
Looking in Su Rong's direction, Fu Xi saw Barrett thrown dozens of meters away, while Su Rong was protecting Lu Lin with her bloodied and mangled hands.
"Looks like I have no choice but to fight it out. I have a golden stone to restore my strength, so the situation is still pretty good!" Fu Xi immediately pulled out an iron hammer from her waist.
"Follow me, I'll lead you out. Once we get into that alley over there, we'll be safe..." Fu Xi, wielding a hammer, cleared the way as if she were about to kill someone.
Several bone hands struck at him, but he shattered them all with a single horizontal punch.
……
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..." After a fierce battle, Fuxi had arrived at the alley where the masks were sold, less than ten meters away.
"Hold on, everyone..." However, just as Fu Xi was preparing to enter the alley ahead, a figure appeared strangely behind him.
"You're really clever, you've forced me to take action!" Gu Feng's voice rang out, giving Fu Xi no time to react.
A large stick came down and struck Fuxi hard on the back of the head, causing her to collapse helplessly.
"Bang!"
"Sales target achieved!"
……
"Fuck you bastards! I came here to buy things, is this how you treat your customers?"
"When I get out, I'll blow you all to bits with my Italian cannon!" A black man was pounding on the prison bars.
He didn't know how much time had passed when Fuxi woke up in the iron bars around him. As soon as he woke up, he found that he and Ruhua and others had been imprisoned.
Moreover, the golden stones on his body had also disappeared.
"Where am I?" Fu Xi rubbed her aching head and staggered to her feet.
He got up and checked on the others, finding they were just exhausted, which gradually put his mind at ease.
This behavior was noticed by the man behind the iron bars next door. "Young man, are you new here?"
"Who are you? And where am I?" Hearing the magnetic voice from next door, Fu Xi gradually came back to her senses.
"Who am I? I'm just like you, a miserable soul who was dragged into this ditch prison!" The magnetic voice rang out again.
"It's all that masked man's fault! He said he was a guide and led me to this road to the underworld!"
"The guide?" Fu Xi immediately realized that this was Ying Gu, the one whose entire family had died.
"You were also tricked by him?"
"No, it wasn't me, it was us! We were all tricked into this. There are at least a hundred people in this prison, and we're just part of his quota!"
"What? So many people?" Fu Xi looked out through the iron bars and, sure enough, there were dozens of iron cages around her.
And there are countless iron cages on top of this.
"Is it that unlucky? How long have you been here, brother?" Fu Xi asked tentatively.
"Me? It's been months. I was lured here from abroad by this godforsaken place, and this is what happened!"
"..."
"Hey... how much do you know about this place, bro? Do you know any way out?"
The other party immediately responded, "What do you mean, 'understand'? I live next to the walls every day, what do I need to understand?"
However, after a moment of contemplation, the other person spoke again, "But I do know a way out!"
Fu Xi tentatively asked, surprised that there really was a solution.
"What is it?"
"See that man in black outside the bars? That's a prison guard. Ask him if you can participate in the Warrior's Challenge! If you win, you can get out!"
"Really?"
"Of course, but your voice doesn't sound very loud. The people here are all very powerful, and you might die if you go up there. Have you thought it through?"
"I'm not going, it's too easy to die there!"
