Chapter 55: Underground Maze
Sun Zecheng immediately fled deeper into the desert, choosing a primary high-level stone escape talisman instead of a primary low-level earth escape talisman in order to escape deeper and farther and avoid Nangong Wan's tracking and searching.

Under the effect of the directional teleportation talisman, Sun Zecheng instantly teleported over a one-hour flying distance. At this time, he was surprised to find that he was teleported into an underground secret passage!
Sun Zecheng stacked up the shield immediately! Then he used the crystal ball. The secret passage was spacious and you could stand and walk casually. Looking at the secret passage, it was surrounded by stone walls. The stone walls seemed to have experienced a long time. They seemed natural and there seemed to be traces of biological activities.

Where does this secret passage lead to? What is inside? Will there be monsters and beasts with the cultivation level of human Jindan and Yuanying? No one knows.

Sun Zecheng hesitated for a moment. Based on his many years of experience in playing games before he traveled through time, it was common for him to open the map too quickly and rashly enter unknown areas and encounter untouchable beings and be killed. GAME OVER!
However, Sun Zecheng took stock of his equipment and found that he had wrapped a Daoist Talisman on his left hand again, which could block the full force attack of the fake pill! There were also two directional teleportation talismans in the storage bag! If it doesn't work, just teleport and run away, what's there to be afraid of!
Feeling uneasy, he hung a Taoism Talisman around his neck, and then used a crystal ball to illuminate the surroundings. Just as he was about to set off, he stopped and used a silver giant sword to carve a circle on the ground and the wall, with an S inside. This was what he learned in the youth programming course before crossing over, and it means the beginning of the program. He also drew an arrow to represent the direction he was going, and then he explored and moved forward carefully.

After walking for a few days, the secret passage suddenly became wider and spacious, like entering a palace. As soon as Sun Zecheng walked in, suddenly, all of a sudden, black shadows flew out from the four walls that he had not sensed before and pounced on him! Under the dim light of the crystal ball, he could still clearly see that these black shadows had a pair of red eyes! Sun Zecheng was shocked!
The black shadows hit the rock shield with a "puff" sound. Only then did Sun Zecheng see clearly that each of them had blood-red eyes, sharp teeth, and extremely ugly appearances like ghost faces and had wings!

It turned out to be a bat!
Sun Zecheng didn't know what kind of bat this was, so he just called it a ghost-faced bat based on its appearance.

The ghost-faced bats instantly swarmed around Sun Zecheng. From a distance, it looked like a big egg covered with layers of bats!
Sun Zecheng was pounced upon by so many ghost-faced bats at close range. Looking at their densely packed and ugly ghost faces with bared fangs and claws, he felt goose bumps all over his body and felt so nauseous that he almost vomited!

The level of these ghost-faced bats seemed not high, but there were so many of them that they could not bite the stone shield, so they immediately switched to spitting venom from their mouths! Although the venom of each one was not much, it was not enough to withstand so many ghost-faced bats!
In a breath, the rock shield shattered!
Fortunately, Sun Zecheng's first reaction was to replenish the shield! At this time, it was activated! The light red smoke that Sun Zecheng drove the crystal ball to spray was like a glue cloud that blocked and pulled them.
There was a layer of rock shield and a layer of ice shield. After the ghost-faced bats in the innermost layer sprayed venom, they did not retreat to let other bats come in. Instead, they madly crowded together and scratched and bit randomly, screaming madly, not caring whether they could bite or not. After all, they were a group of low-intelligence monsters. The rock shield was strong and not afraid of being bitten, but the smoke from the crystal ball was all bitten away!
The light red smoke from the crystal ball also corroded many ghost-faced bats. After being corroded, the ghost-faced bats became pitted and mottled and still dripped blood! They became uglier and more disgusting!
Resisted temporarily!

Damn! I almost capsized in the ditch!

Sun Zecheng was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, but it was not the time to stop and catch his breath! Sun Zecheng stacked three more layers of rock shields in one breath, expanding the egg-shaped protective cover and moving it away from himself. Otherwise, if so many densely packed ghost-faced bats came up to him and stared at him, he would get goose bumps all over his body!

Most shady guys are afraid of fire! Sun Zecheng spread out twenty primary and high-level fire dragon talismans, and added a second layer of ice shield to himself to prevent fire.

In an instant, fire dragons danced wildly in the spacious underground tunnel, and flames shot up into the sky, turning it into a sea of ​​fire. The ghost-faced bats that were unable to escape nearby sprayed venom to fight back, while the ghost-faced bats that were farther away on the periphery fled in all directions!

Damn! I miscalculated again! I should have used the earth prison first! I should have killed all these ghosts! Then I set them on fire! Now most of them have run away!

The venom of numerous bats extinguished seven or eight fire dragons, but the dark things were ultimately defeated by fire!
The fire dragon flew wildly! It quickly burned the venom dry and devoured the circle of ghost-faced bats blocking the front, burning them into ashes!
Damn! I forgot! My Taotie treasure chest is hungry! So many bat monsters were burned to ashes and wasted! Sun Zecheng felt distressed and hurriedly and carefully controlled the fire dragon to burn them to death, leaving the whole body. Half an hour later, there were roasted bat corpses all over the ground. Many of them were burnt because the fire was not controlled well. However, even the ghost-faced bats were roasted with oil and meaty aroma. The whole secret passage was filled with the aroma of roasted bat meat. I don’t know if it will attract some powerful monsters, so I quickly packed up and left early.

No matter what, Sun Zecheng waved his hand and used the object control technique to roll the bat corpses into a pile in the air, like a small mountain. Then he carefully used the earth prison talisman to frame himself and the pile of bat corpses in the prison. Then he released the Taotie treasure chest and rolled the bat corpses into the treasure chest until it was full, with some left.

As for the rest, Sun Zecheng thought for a moment and then used the fire bomb technique to burn it all into ashes!
It would be a waste if it was wasted. If we leave them here, who knows what will happen. As the old saying goes, kill someone and set fire to them, and destroy the body and all traces. This is also true for monsters. These ghost-faced bats are monsters. If we leave their bodies here, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause. It is better to burn them to ashes.

Get away now!
With a crystal ball floating above his head, Sun Zecheng continued to move forward. After leaving the "Ghost Bat Hall" of the ghost-faced bats' lair, the secret passage shrank back to its original size. Such regular changes made Sun Zecheng deeply suspect that this secret passage was not formed naturally.

Along the way, when he encountered some ghost-faced bats, Sun Zecheng would fire bombs and burn them to death without leaving any trace.

In the underground world, you can't tell east, west, south, or north, so you can only memorize the map according to the direction you are heading.

As we walked, we started to see forks in the road, and there were more and more of them!

Shit! This feels like a fucking underground maze!

There was no other way. Whenever he encountered a fork in the road, Sun Zecheng always chose the right path. At the same time, he used a huge silver sword to leave arrows at every intersection to record the route forward and the road he had traveled.

A month later, as Sun Zecheng was walking, the secret passage suddenly became wider and very spacious, as if he had entered a palace. It felt a little familiar, and he released a fireball, illuminating the surroundings. There were familiar walls, traces of burns, and even ghost-faced bats on the ground. The burnt ashes and oil stains from the scorched ghost-faced bats left a circle of traces left by a pile of bats.

It turned out that after going around in circles, Sun Zecheng returned to the original Ghost Bat Hall!

A month wasted in this maze! This fucking underground maze!
