Even the two ghouls were probably worried about harming the pond fish, and no longer relied on the ancient gug giant's usual fear of ghouls, so they climbed quickly carrying the tombstone.

Qin Zhibo thinks that his physical strength is not bad among humans, but it is not enough in front of the energetic and tireless ghoul.

Soon, the two ghouls climbed up to an invisible place.

Qin Zhibo struggled to carry Hondo Eyou up the stairs, but thanks to Matsumoto Ryohei's support on the steps, his speed was slightly faster.

The situation at this time is the same as the plot in the fairy tale "Jack and the Beanstalk".

The slight difference is that Jack climbed down along the vines to avoid the pursuit of the giant, while they climbed up.

The giant below seemed to have finished blowing the "assembly call" and no longer made the sound of sticks hitting stones, and the underground city fell into silence again.

But in fact, those giants pursue without making a sound, which is a thousand times more terrifying than pursuing with a sound.

Because we don't know that at a certain moment, they will suddenly appear from the darkness in a terrifying way.

Matsumoto Ryohei also noticed the seriousness of the situation and suggested: "If that doesn't work, you can throw him away."

Qin Zhibo understood that the "him" mentioned by Matsumoto Ryohei referred to Hondo Eyou.

Even though Yingyou's weight is relatively light, carrying it on Qin Zhibo's back is still a big burden, even a burden.

But Qin Zhibo shook his head firmly and did not adopt this suggestion.

…

During the lengthy climb, Qin Zhibo could no longer remember how many steps he had climbed.

His body had long been exhausted, and he was constantly climbing upwards solely relying on his survival instinct.

The darkness behind him has always been silent, and neither heavy footsteps nor intensive breathing can be heard.

But if you think based on this that those Guge giants have not caught up, so you can relax your vigilance and sit down to rest, that would be a big mistake.

They are like hunters in the dark. They spend most of their time either sleeping or fighting with a small number of monsters and ghosts.

But once they gather on a large scale, it's not so easy to give up.

Qin Zhibo's heart was heavy and his body was even heavier. He could only try his best to squeeze out power from every muscle in his body and climb toward the top of his head.

As he continued to climb, Qin Zhibo's body inevitably rubbed against the rough stone surface.

Friction makes the skin more and more sensitive, and every contact sends tingling sensations through the nerves to the brain.

But fortunately, his brain is no longer capable of thinking about this.

Now there is only one thing on his mind, which is to climb up.

Finally, the blinding darkness came to an end.

The upward steps disappeared and were replaced by a platform.

There is a huge stone trap door above the end of the platform.

Inside this door is the space passage leaving the dreamland. At this moment, the trap door has been pushed open by the tombstone brought by the ghoul.

The ghoul disappeared, apparently having escaped.

"Come here quickly!"

"Come on!"

Matsumoto Ryohei had climbed to the trap door along the tombstone and waved to Qin Zhibo below.

Qin Zhibo ran to the bottom of the trap door step by step. Every step seemed like he was going to fall down, but he persisted.

He untied the straps on his body, lifted Hondang Yingyou, and held him above his head.

Matsumoto Ryohei wanted to say something, but he still didn't open his mouth and dragged Hondo Eiyu up like bacon.

Just when Matsumoto Ryohei turned his head and continued to respond to Qin Zhibo, a bloody mouth suddenly burst out from the darkness behind him.

The vertical giant mouth was like a hungry shark, rushing straight towards Qin Zhibo.

Qin Zhibo seized the last opportunity and took off, grabbing Matsumoto Ryohei's hands with both hands, but his whole body disappeared into the darkness inside the trap door.

The ancient giant's huge mouth was empty, and the expression on his face became even more distorted. However, he was unable to make a sound, so he could only angrily smash open the tombstone on the top door.

Peng!

The trapdoor falls.

…

In the dark space, Qin Zhibo felt that his body was moving back and forth.

The scenery of a patchwork lake shuttled around, and there seemed to be a port city, a magical forest, and a secret realm on the plateau...

Countless scenes passed quickly, disappeared like tearing apart, and finally merged into infinite light.

The light made Qin Zhibo dizzy, and he fainted if he didn't pay attention.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying between the damp soil and the cellar threshold, surrounded by decayed tombstones.
