Chapter 218 Bloody Mary

Looking into Tang San's eyes, which were as calm and still as a deep pool, Hu Liena's heart couldn't help but stir a ripple.

She bit her lip slightly, her gaze lingering on the mysterious pill in Tang San's hand. After hesitating for a long time, she finally made up her mind, slowly reached out, and gently took the pill from Tang San's palm.

Hu Liena gripped the pill tightly, her palms even sweating slightly.

She knew perfectly well that she knew nothing about the origin and effects of the pill, but at this moment she had no choice. Once she swallowed it, it meant that she was handing her life over to Tang San. From then on, Tang San would be able to easily control her every move with this pill.

However, reality was staring her in the face, and Hu Liena knew very well that it was almost impossible for her to successfully break through the Hell Road on her own.

As for Tang San in front of us, although we don't know his true intentions, at least for now, cooperating with him seems to be the only viable way out.

After a fierce internal struggle, Hu Liena gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and swallowed the pill.

The moment the pill slid down her throat, she felt as if an invisible force had begun to bind her. But even so, Hu Liena did not show the slightest panic, because she knew that at this moment, only by facing it bravely could she have a chance of survival.

Just as Hu Liena swallowed the pill without hesitation, Tang San couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.

Hu Liena's movements were swift and decisive, without any hesitation, clearly demonstrating that she was a resolute person.

Tang San nodded to himself, then said calmly, "Since we've decided to venture into Hell Road together, you shouldn't drink any more of this Bloody Mary." With that, he waved his hand gently, signaling Hu Liena to put down her glass.

Hu Liena frowned at Tang San, puzzled, and asked, "Why? Haven't you noticed that the longer you stay in the City of Slaughter, the more restless you become? And Bloody Mary can effectively calm your restless heart."

Tang San slowly shook his head and said with a firm gaze, "No, you are very wrong. The reason you feel this way is because you have been poisoned. The air in this City of Slaughter is filled with a special toxin that can stimulate the killing intent hidden in our bodies. The only way to quell the agitation caused by this killing intent is to use more blood to suppress it."

He paused, then continued seriously, "But in fact, Bloody Mary also contains toxins, and the more often you drink Bloody Mary, the longer it takes, the more you will gradually develop a dependence and addiction to it. Not only that, this toxin also has a strong stimulant effect, which will indeed make you feel stronger in a short period of time."

After a pause, Tang San looked at Hu Liena with a serious expression and continued, "However, you must remember this: this poison is extremely deadly. As time goes by, once the poison accumulates in your body and reaches a certain level, your current physical condition will be absolutely unable to resist its fierce corrosive effects. Therefore, while you are still not deeply poisoned, you must immediately stop drinking Bloody Mary."

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena was struck dumb, her face instantly showing extreme shock, her beautiful eyes staring at Tang San in disbelief.

After all, she had been in this killing city for quite some time, but she never expected such a situation to occur.

However, Hu Liena knew very well that at this moment, she and Tang San were like grasshoppers in the same boat.

Whether it was to successfully escape this killing city full of bloodshed and danger, or for any other reason, Tang San would never deceive her.

Hu Liena's expression turned unusually serious. She nodded solemnly and replied, "I understand. From this day forward, I will definitely stop drinking Bloody Mary."

Tang San nodded slowly.

……

In the forest, towering ancient trees are densely packed like umbrellas, weaving together to form a lush green sea.

Sunlight filters through the gaps, casting dappled patterns of light, like stars fallen to earth. Underfoot, the thick layer of fallen leaves rustles softly.

The forest was filled with tangled trees. The carriage was parked outside, and Tang Nian led the group towards the cave.

Looking at everything before him, Dai Mubai said with some surprise, "I didn't even know that our Star Luo Empire had such a place."

Ma Hongjun looked surprised and said, "You, as a prince, didn't know? The territory of the God of Hell is quite well hidden."

Although she had only walked through it once, every plant and tree there was as clear as if it were engraved in Tang Nian's mind. Before long, she led everyone to the entrance of the cave.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, a cool and damp atmosphere wafted over.

The stone wall was covered with lush green moss, and crystal-clear water droplets were slowly flowing down the stone wall, eventually dripping gently onto the bluestone slab, making a crisp and melodious dripping sound.

The faint light struggled to penetrate the cave entrance, contrasting sharply with the dark and gloomy atmosphere inside, creating a striking interplay of light and shadow.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The air was filled with a strong earthy smell and a faint musty odor, a smell that made people involuntarily hold their breath.

As soon as they stepped into the cave, the surroundings became eerily quiet, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing in the empty cave.

Occasionally, a gentle breeze would drift from the depths of the cave, carrying with it some subtle, indescribable sounds.

These sounds were faint and intermittent, as if some mysterious creature was secretly watching them from a dark corner.

Ning Rongrong suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She instinctively shrank behind Zhu Zhuqing, her voice trembling slightly with fear as she said, "I don't know why, but I feel like this place is a little strange..."

However, at that moment, Ma Hongjun suddenly puffed out his chest and shouted confidently, "Don't be afraid! I'm here! My strength is vastly different from before, and I can absolutely guarantee the safety of all of you!"

Tang Nian slowly said, "It's alright, don't worry." As she spoke, she took out the things that Natasha had given her and, following the method Natasha had taught her, opened the gate leading to the Yellow Springs.
