Chapter 902: 902
The Nether World Watch has come down to search for the remnants of the Blade of Chaos!
The few elites of the Blade of Chaos around Li Yao were all at a loss . Naturally, Li Yao would rather not wait to be captured by them there . He pretended to be panicked and screamed before he dashed into the darkness of the second floor .
The elites of the Blade of Chaos all realized that it was not good . Looking at each other in bewilderment, they shouted and dispersed .
In the darkness, Li Yao's bloody eye was glittering like a shivering red star while he rushed in the darkness .
At that moment, his 'eye' named Neltharion was still in the tusk cage that locked the Fire Ant King . So, it was impossible for him to detect the situation inside the temple, but thankfully, the Fire Ant King had transmitted a large number of maps of the Mausoleum of Chaos over to him, which made him able to find his way .
Maps…
Not good!
Li Yao thought quickly and soon realized that, since such a map was sent over to an ordinary member easily, it was certainly not the complete map .
Besides, if Li Yao had access to such a map, the elites of the Blade of Chaos must have the same map, too . Since they had mostly been captured by the Nether World Watch right now, as long as there were experts adept at mental attacks, the enemy would soon retrieve the map .
Then, the Nether World Watch only needed to follow the map if they wanted to clear every corner of the Mausoleum of Chaos easily .
I have to hide myself in a pathway or room that is not marked on the map!
Li Yao accelerated his speed to maximum and upgraded his optical cells and nerves . The darkness of the pathway was no longer a hinderance for him . While rushing forward, he calculated the route that he had just passed and checked it with the map that the Fire Ant King offered to him, trying to figure out a new direction .
Shouts and screams could vaguely be heard behind him . The few elites of the Blade of Chaos must have been discovered .
Li Yao had no doubt about their loyalty to God Chaos, but against the soul-searching techniques, it would be difficult for them to conceal the fact that one of their companions was still on the run .
He had to find a shelter quickly .
Half an hour later, after running around the maze-like Mausoleum of Chaos multiple times, and when the footsteps and the noises of shells rubbing the wall were drawing close to him, Li Yao finally found a pathway that was not marked on the map .
Without any hesitation, Li Yao crawled into the pathway, embraced by the damp, suffocating air .
Very soon, Li Yao realized why the pathway was not marked on the map .
It was because the pathway was a drainage canal .
The Mausoleum of Chaos had been built below the Star Swallowing Sea . The designers clearly considered what to do if the upper part of the mausoleum collapsed and the lake water poured in .
Therefore, a lot of drainage canals had been established on every floor of the Mausoleum of Chaos . Some of the main drainage canals that were larger in diameter were marked on the map, but the secondary drainage canals that were no larger than capillary vessels were simply ignored .
Since it was a drainage canal, the front would certainly not be a dead end, which met Li Yao's demands precisely . He stuck close to the wall of the drainage canal and turned off every pore on his body while minimizing his heartbeat and the movement of his internal organs . He even compressed his computational ability in order to reduce the flow of the blood in his brain and the heat that his brain emitted .
Li Yao forced himself to become a cold rock and integrate with the environment .
When he finally adjusted his body temperature to thirteen degrees, which was the environment temperature, and closed the last pore on his body, hasty footsteps echoed outside of the drainage canal .
The next moment, a few black beetles flew in .
The beetles were only the size of thumbs, but their heads were embedded with bright yellow crystals that were shooting out beams of light like searchlights .
The interconnecting beams of light drove away the dark fog in front of the drainage canal . Except for the dry moss and the mud, nothing was found at all .
Li Yao appeared to be a frozen statue, but his heart was like a volcano that was about to erupt . The spiritual energy all over his body was ready . Should the light of the black beetles have passed him, he would have immediately crushed the beetles and launched his strongest strike to blow up the entrance of the drainage canal before running away from the other side of it .
Thankfully, due to the vastness of the Mausoleum of Chaos, in order to complete the search in three hours, the Nether World Watch had to increase their speed and could not scrutinize every nook and cranny .
One of the lights narrowly brushed past Li Yao's head and almost touched his hair . But very soon, the three beetles all flew back .
Li Yao maintained a frozen expression and posture . Even his eyelids seemed to have become made of iron . He did not move his body at all until ten minutes later when the footsteps gradually left the area . Finally, he expanded the pores on his body one by one again .
Sitting cross-legged, Li Yao took a deep breath . Although he was in the middle of a cold, humid drainage canal, he still put on a smile in great relief .
The enemy was in the light while he walked in the shadows . Elder Nether Spring thought that he had everything under his control . He would never expect that such a dangerous variable named Li Yao was still lurking in the depths of the Mausoleum of Chaos .
The game was finally back to the pace that Li Yao was familiar with .
Let's analyze the situation first .
Firstly, since Elder Nether Spring has put so much efforts into the Mausoleum of Chaos, he is clearly very interested in the legacy of Chaos, too . Chances are that he is even going to study the tomb on the spot and move all the valuable treasures within the Mausoleum of Chaos back to his place .
Secondly, with Elder Nether Spring's identity and social position, it is very unlikely that he will spend all his time in this place . In another few days, he will have to return to the Pantheon of Demons . Otherwise, the other demon emperors will certainly grow suspicious of him .
