The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 848
When Chen Ying stood up, she subconsciously activated [Perception] for a few seconds.

To be on the safe side, every time she changed places, she would quickly check to see if there were any awakened persons or suspicious targets nearby. Unexpectedly, she found something out of this casual check.

White Rabbit guessed what was going on and immediately became alert and stared at Chen Ying.

Chen Ying looked around, pulled White Rabbit and left.

The two went to the restroom in the store and closed the door.

Chen Ying immediately said: "I just sensed that there are two living beings moving about 100 meters below our feet. One is an awakened person, and the other is not sure, like a beast."

"Are you sure?" White Rabbit frowned.

"Well, it shouldn't be a trap this time. The target is moving, and the speed is not slow." Chen Ying closed her eyes and continued tracking: "Quick! They are moving away from us!"

Bai Tu quickly walked around behind Chen Ying and hugged her waist.

Chen Ying suddenly thought of something and looked embarrassed: "Wait, are you going to go down from here?"

"if not?"

Chen Ying's face turned ugly, "This is...the toilet!"

"I avoid sewer pipes, and essentially, we're isolated from all obstacles, so we have no worries."

——But you are very tired now. If I accidentally fail to control the energy form, wouldn't I become a "dung man"?
——I really can’t accept this way of death.

Chen Ying complained in her heart, but said nothing more.

Two seconds later, numb energy wrapped around Chen Ying, holding her "falling" into the floor tiles under her feet.

Chen Ying tapped White Rabbit's fingers, as if she were driving White Rabbit, an earth-escape beast, diving down while catching up with the moving target.

After tracking it like this for 2 minutes, Chen Ying was suddenly surprised when the target accelerated, and she immediately "controlled" the white rabbit to dive in one direction.

Ten seconds later, the heads of White Rabbit and Chen Ying appeared and hung upside down at the top of the tunnel.

Chen Ying felt unwilling to do so: "Those two people suddenly accelerated and we lost track of them."

"Have they discovered us?" White Rabbit asked.

"I shouldn't have noticed it." Chen Ying said: "When people sense danger, they will immediately become alert, and the flow of energy in the body will fluctuate. I can tell it at a close distance."

White Rabbit hesitated: "Are there any traps around here?"

Chen Ying closed her eyes and activated the [Master Key] to investigate again: "Safe."

"Go down and explore?" White Rabbit asked: "The shuttle is almost reaching its limit. I need to take a rest."

"Okay." Chen Ying agreed.

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt her body slipping like a loach sliding down from the top of the tunnel, and she was about to hit her head on the ground.

"what……"

White Rabbit landed first, opened his arms, and caught Chen Ying firmly, giving her a false alarm.

"Front or behind?" White Rabbit asked.

In front of you is a dim tunnel with only two directions, front and back.

Chen Ying made a judgment based on the direction she had tracked before: "Go forward."

White Rabbit did not let go of Chen Ying, but hugged her and started running. Chen Ying was a little embarrassed, but she also understood White Rabbit's intention.

On the one hand, White Rabbit wants to chase someone, but Chen Ying's steps are too slow.On the other hand, Chen Ying can concentrate on [perception] and help White Rabbit avoid risks, which is equivalent to saying that White Rabbit is traveling with a "human radar".

Chen Ying hooked her hands around Bai Tu's neck and closed her eyes. The sound of wind was whistling in her ears. She felt like she was riding a roller coaster, bumping and bumping.

Half a minute later, White Rabbit suddenly stopped and put Chen Ying down.

Chen Ying opened her eyes and looked up: there was a wall in front of her, and the two of them reached a dead end.

But this is really unreasonable. The tunnels of the capsule train must be connected to the platform. There is no need for a dead end. An initial construction error led to the construction of a dead end. This situation is almost impossible.

White Rabbit glanced at Chen Ying: "Is there any danger nearby?"

Chen Ying quickly sensed: "There is no one else nearby, and there is no smell of a trap."

White Rabbit nodded, walked towards the wall in front of him, and slowly melted into it.

Chen Ying was a little worried, took a few steps closer, and stared at the dark cement wall.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the wall, startling Chen Ying.

It turned out to be Bai Rabbit's hand. She made an "OK" gesture to Chen Ying, and then crossed her fingers.

Chen Ying took a long breath and held Bai Rabbit's hand. Suddenly, a wave of energy spread throughout Chen Ying's body.

The hand inside the wall pulled hard and pulled Chen Ying in.

The wall is not solid, but a narrow secret passage. This secret passage is a bit long, with a glimmer of light at the end.

Chen Ying and Bai Rabbit were facing each other, communicating with their eyes.

Chen Ying activated [Perception] again to eliminate the danger.

Bai Tu felt relieved, grabbed one of Chen Ying's hands, and led the way forward.

The two walked slowly, making sure not to make too much noise, and soon walked out of the secret passage.

Outside the secret passage is an underground space the size of an indoor basketball court. There is a high-tech metal door on the wall at the end. It looks like it is mixed with black gold and has been empowered.

Chen Ying understood immediately. She immediately held Bai Rabbit's hand and pointed to the top of her head, meaning: leave immediately.

Bai Tu didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hugged Chen Ying and pushed her to "melt" into the wall behind her.

A few minutes later, Bai Rabbit and Chen Ying returned to the ground. They popped their heads out first and looked around, seeing a dark alley.

After confirming that there were no pedestrians or cameras here, the two emerged from the ground.

Chen Ying held back her words and immediately said: "That door has been empowered. I can feel the energy on it. It must be the [shielding] talent. No wonder I can't sense Dr. Jia!"

[Shield], talent 166, protection system.

This talent can "conceal energy" for living beings in a specific space. It can block all detection methods except the naked eye. If combined with the [Maze], it is basically impossible to be found.

[Shield] Originally a member of the Baichuan Regiment, he died in the Scarlet Tide. Unexpectedly, he was now back in the hands of the Haichuan Regiment.

"Then can we be sure that Dr. Jia is hiding behind the door?" White Rabbit said.

"Probably." Chen Ying said.

White Rabbit thought for a while and then asked: "Can your [Master Key] remove the [Shield]?"

"Yes, but that will alert the enemy." Chen Ying remembered Gao Yang's advice: "We don't know who else is behind the door besides Dr. Jia, so we can't enter rashly."
