I have a city in another world

Inside the secret realm, at the end of a passage.

Dozens of explorers gathered inside a sealed chamber to escape the icy, bone-chilling underground flood.

At this moment, they all wore expressions of relief, as if they had survived a disaster.

No one expected that a sudden change would occur, turning the entire secret realm into a water palace.

Caught off guard, many of the explorers were swallowed by the underground flood and struggled desperately to survive.

The biting cold of the underground floodwaters is enough to cause people to lose their temperature and freeze in a short time; even cultivators cannot endure it for long.

Many weak explorers froze in the biting underground floodwaters and lost their lives in despair and resentment.

Explorers were horrified to discover that many of the dead explorers had miraculously "come back to life" underwater.

Their faces were deathly pale, their eyes turned blood red, and they moved mechanically underwater.

In the water-filled passage, the resurrected explorers search for their fellow adventurers who have fled and are hiding.

Once discovered, the drowning victim will suddenly attack, dragging their companions underwater.

They won't let go until they drown it.

Upon discovering this situation, the explorers were terrified and tried every means to avoid it.

Inside the passageway, they searched for enclosed chambers to prevent underground floodwaters from seeping in.

However, most sealed rooms cannot be completely airtight and cannot prevent underground flooding.

We must find a way to block the door to the secret room.

Even if the underground flood is blocked, the oxygen in the room will not last long. Cultivators are mortals, and they will suffocate if they lack oxygen.

However, they can obtain oxygen from the water through various methods, thus allowing them to stay underwater for longer periods of time.

However, once those water monsters discover that there are people in the secret room, they will try every means to break through.

The explorer hiding in the secret room bears immense psychological pressure and is filled with deep fear.

The only hope now is that the Wizard Alliance discovers the anomaly, and the forces behind it receive the news and can launch a timely and rapid rescue.

However, this situation is too special, and even if reinforcements are sent, it may not be able to be resolved smoothly.

At this moment, the survivors can't rely on anyone and can only depend on themselves to survive.

Inside the locked room numbered 504.

The explorers gathered here tried to seal the entrance to ensure that no underground floodwaters would come in.

There are also a few formal wizards who possess similar magic to turning mud into stone. They apply mud to cracks, and in the blink of an eye, the mud becomes harder than stone.

"There are 32 of us, which consumes a lot of oxygen. We must find a solution."

Otherwise, we'll all be suffocating in this place in no time!

A wizard raised a question, and everyone nodded in agreement; it was indeed a very serious question.

"I know there is a kind of underwater breathing technique that allows you to draw oxygen from the water."

"Could we learn from this? That way we can live longer, and maybe even find a way to escape this secret realm."

Another explorer offered his advice.

"I am also aware of underwater breathing techniques, which can indeed solve the problem, but they are not suitable for today's dangerous environment."

The underground floodwaters outside contain deadly cold and may even contain unknown water poisons.

"If you were in that situation, you wouldn't last long; you could easily lose your life."

Another explorer shared his observations, which sent a chill down everyone's spines.

If that's the case, this technique shouldn't be used lightly, otherwise the entire group will be wiped out very quickly.

"I suggest that the underwater breathing method be improved by using rune arrays to draw sufficient oxygen from the water."

Then, supply oxygen into the sealed chamber to ensure our breathing needs are met until we are out of this predicament.

Explorers offered a new suggestion that could effectively avoid the harm of water poisoning, and it was approved by the monks.

This method of mimicking fish organs to obtain oxygen from water is not uncommon. The Astral Sphere has some underwater breathing apparatuses that can actually do this, but only for personal use.

To meet the demands of a large workforce, more advanced skills are required, and the rune array must also be upgraded and modified.

This matter sounds simple, but it is extremely difficult to accomplish.

Each rune array undergoes countless calculations and simulations, consuming a great deal of time and effort; it cannot be altered casually.

A small change can have far-reaching consequences; modifying one part will affect the rest.

The difficulty of getting a group of explorers to complete a corresponding rune array in a short period of time is unimaginable.

But if they don't do it, they might all die.

No one objected; everyone cooperated silently, striving to save themselves.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, the door to the secret chamber suddenly shook violently, as if a huge object was crashing into it.

Amidst everyone's worried gazes, cracks appeared on the door, and icy groundwater sprayed in.

Although they were just a few trickles of water, they sent a chill down the spines of the cultivators.

The appearance of such cracks indicates that the gate is damaged and could collapse at any time.

If they cannot seal it and prevent the gate from breaking and collapsing, they will all be doomed.

At this point, no one dared to hold back and they all resorted to various means.

But a violent impact followed immediately, causing even more cracks to appear.

A deep sense of panic and despair rose in the explorers' hearts as they began to prepare for the gate to fall.

Once the gate breaks down and underground floodwaters rush in, they will have to take immediate action.

We must use every means possible to escape this place.

The thought had barely formed when a loud crash was heard, followed by the door shattering and collapsing.

The explorers cried out in alarm and scrambled to take cover against the wall to avoid the powerful current.

They clearly saw that as the cold groundwater rushed in, many strange things also entered the secret chamber.

These creatures, like infants, dart about in the water at incredible speeds, making them impossible to catch.

Once inside the secret chamber, they immediately launched an attack on the explorers, firing bullets at them relentlessly.

Despite its seemingly small size, it possesses terrifying strength in the water and can easily break ribs.

Despite their quick reflexes and protective measures, the explorers were still badly injured by the impact.

The water level continues to rise, and they will soon be swallowed up, making their situation even more difficult.

In the blink of an eye, explorers died from the monster's attack, and crimson blood spread everywhere.

The baby-like gray-white water monster became increasingly frenzied and excited after being stimulated by the blood.

The secret chamber meant to hide from danger has now become a monster hunting ground; we must escape as soon as possible.

When the water in the sealed chamber was filled and the pressure at the door suddenly eased, a group of explorers rushed out.

Upon entering the passage, they immediately surveyed their surroundings, wary of any potential powerful enemies.

The door that was just destroyed by such immense force was something the little water monster couldn't have done.

There is a high possibility that a giant water monster is lurking nearby, waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack.

Despite these concerns, the priority is to escape to a safe zone as quickly as possible.

Then find the exit and escape from the secret realm.

The explorers swam swiftly through the icy water, battling the pursuit and harassment of small water monsters.

Every now and then, explorers would fall behind during their escape and be surrounded by small monsters.

Some cultivators scattered their blood mist, while others chose to perish together, creating explosions and shockwaves in the water.

After finally breaking through a passage and reaching the flooded main road, they saw countless drowned bodies, hanging unevenly at the bottom of the water, all staring at them. (End of Chapter)
