Chapter 398: Dangerous Exploration: The Truth About Xiao Beisuo
"This place marked on the map... is most likely their secret base!" Xiao Bei pointed to an inconspicuous red dot on the map with a firm tone.
Beili came over and carefully examined the map, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "But, this place is so hidden, how on earth did they hide it from the world?"
"Perhaps, we can sneak in and find out what's going on." Xiao Bei's"
Taking advantage of the night, the two quietly approached the red dot marked on the map.
There was silence all around, only the rustling of leaves in the wind, and a sense of tension hung in the air.
Xiao Bei moved forward cautiously, taking every step with extreme caution, like a nimble cheetah, ready to deal with sudden danger at any time.
He keenly caught a glimpse of strange fluctuations around him.
Bei Li followed Xiao Bei closely, her heart pounding as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
The darkness around them was like a huge monster that could swallow them up at any time.
Finally, they arrived near the stronghold.
The towering walls, the strict guards, and the powerful restrictions in the air all indicate the danger of this place.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath and began to try to break the ban.
He mobilized all the spiritual power in his body, and golden light condensed from his fingertips, continuously attacking the restriction.
However, every attempt would trigger the alarm device, and the sharp alarm sound would cut through the night sky, instantly alerting the surrounding guards.
"Damn it!" Xiao Bei cursed softly, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
The surrounding restrictions emitted heart-pounding energy fluctuations, as if they could devour him at any time.
"Xiaobei, let's retreat first!" Beili pulled Xiaobei's sleeve anxiously. She could feel the dangerous atmosphere around her getting stronger and stronger.
"No, we must find evidence!" Xiao Bei gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with determination.
He tried to break the ban again, but failed again.
As time passed, Xiao Bei became more and more anxious. He felt like a trapped beast in an invisible cage.
Suddenly, Xiao Bei had a flash of inspiration...
"Wait, that's not right..." he muttered to himself.
Xiao Bei frowned, and his fingers gently stroked the restriction, as if he was playing a silent piece of music.
He suddenly remembered an online novel he had read before, which mentioned a similar restriction. The key to breaking it was to find the center of the formation.
The eye of the formation is usually hidden in the most inconspicuous place. By using logical reasoning and combining it with the surrounding environment, you can find a breakthrough.
He closed his eyes, carefully feeling the flow of energy around him, and quickly deduced various possibilities in his mind.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Found it!" he whispered, pointing his finger at an inconspicuous stone below the restriction. "The center of the formation is right here!"
Xiao Bei mobilized all his spiritual power and injected a stream of pure energy into the stone.
Buzz buzz buzz—the restriction vibrated slightly, and the surrounding light flickered a few times before disappearing!
The ban is broken!
"Awesome! Xiaobei, you are such a genius!" Beili hugged Xiaobei excitedly, her eyes full of admiring little stars.
"I knew you could do it!" She whispered in his ear. Her warm breath brushed past his ear, causing Xiao Bei's heartbeat to speed up a bit.
Xiao Bei coughed lightly, a slightly awkward smile appeared on his face, and he gently pushed Bei Li away, "Keep a low profile, just basic operations, basic operations." Although he said this, his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
There was a hint of ambiguity in the air around, as if even the night had become gentle.
"Okay, let's go in." Xiao Bei took the lead and stepped into the gate of the secret base.
As soon as we entered the stronghold, a gloomy atmosphere hit us in the face, making us shudder.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far away...
"Who is it?!" A cold voice sounded in the darkness.
Xiao Bei and Bei Li flashed into the stronghold. A musty smell mixed with a faint smell of blood penetrated their nostrils, making them feel sick.
There was dead silence all around, with only the flickering torches in the distance swaying in the wind, casting strange shadows.
"Be alert!" Xiao Bei reminded in a low voice, and at the same time released his spiritual sense to investigate the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, the sound of orderly footsteps broke the silence.
"Who is it?!" With a loud shout, several patrolmen in black tights appeared at the corner, holding sharp blades and looking murderous.
"Hehe, here comes the one who's offering his head!" Xiao Bei curled the corners of his mouth, revealing an evil smile.
"Li'er, get started!"
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Bei appeared behind a patrolman like a ghost. A dagger flashing with cold light appeared out of thin air in his hand, and with a "whoosh", he killed him cleanly and neatly.
Bei Li was not to be outdone. Her delicate hands flew, and icicles rained down on the enemy. "That's it? You can't even beat my little Bei, and you still want to catch him? Go home and raise pigs!"
The patrol was caught off guard but quickly reacted, formed a defensive formation, and began to fight back.
The battle instantly became intense, with swords flashing and spiritual power surging.
"Li'er, be careful!" Xiao Bei caught a glimpse of a black shadow attacking Bei Li from the corner of his eye, and quickly pulled her behind him, while he himself took a heavy blow.
"Xiaobei!" Beili exclaimed, his eyes full of worry.
She swung the sword in her hand, forcing back the enemy attacking Xiao Bei, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's just a small scene, no big deal!" Xiao Bei smiled casually, but the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth betrayed him.
At this moment, Beili was unfortunately hit by the enemy's spell. Her body trembled, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her face turned pale in an instant.
"Li'er!" Xiao Bei's eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was filled with self-blame and anger.
He protected Beili behind him and glanced at the enemies around him with cold eyes, like a Shura from hell.
There were more and more enemies around, and their attacks became more and more fierce. Xiao Bei gradually felt overwhelmed.
He hugged Beili tightly, feeling her body temperature, and a feeling of despair surged in his heart.
"Am I... going to die here today?" Xiao Bei smiled bitterly, his heart filled with resentment.
Suddenly, he felt a powerful force awakening within him. An unprecedented energy surged through him, as if it was about to burst through his body...
"What kind of power is this?" Xiao Bei muttered to himself.
"Xiaobei..." Beili's weak voice sounded in his ears, "Don't... don't give up..."
"I won't give up!" Xiao Bei held Bei Li's hand tightly, with fire burning in his eyes, "I will definitely protect you!" Xiao Bei felt like a volcano erupting in his body, streams of heat surged throughout his body, and his sense of strength instantly exploded, as if he could blow up a planet with one punch.
He looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, the sound was like a dragon's roar, shaking the air around him.
The patrol members who were originally so aggressive were now trembling in front of him like a group of crying chicks.
"That's it? You dare to be so arrogant in front of me?" Xiao Bei grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, with a hint of evil and playfulness in his smile.
He moved as fast as lightning, weaving through the crowd, using his fists and feet. Each blow contained great power, like the god of death coming to reap the lives of his enemies.
"Bang bang bang!" A series of dull impact sounds rang out, accompanied by the enemy's painful wails.
Those patrol members who had been showing off their might just now were now flying backwards like kites with broken strings, hitting the wall, falling to the ground, and losing their voice.
In just a few minutes, the ground was littered with corpses, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"Awesome!" Xiao Bei clenched his fists, feeling the power surging in his body, his heart filled with a sense of refreshment.
He glanced around. Those enemies who had been ferocious just now had now turned into corpses on the ground. He felt nothing in his heart and even felt like laughing.
He clapped his hands, as if he had done something insignificant. "That's it? That's too bad!"
Bei Li watched Xiao Bei as if possessed by a god of war, destroying the enemy with overwhelming force. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, endured the pain in her body, walked to Xiao Bei, and hugged him, "Xiao Bei, you...you are so amazing!"
Xiao Bei felt Bei Li's warm embrace, and the anger in his heart subsided a little. He gently stroked her hair, "Don't worry, Li'er, I'm here, no one can hurt you!"
The two calmed down a little and began to search the base carefully.
The interior of the stronghold is like a huge maze, with various rooms and passages that are intricate and dazzling.
The air was filled with a musty and bloody smell, which made people feel depressed and uncomfortable.
"Something... seems wrong here..." Xiao Bei touched his chin. He keenly discovered that the layout of the rooms here was very different from that of ordinary strongholds, and it seemed to be hiding some secrets.
They pushed open a half-open wooden door, and a strong smell of blood hit them in the face, making them feel sick.
The interior of the room was simply furnished, with only a wooden table and a few chairs. On the wall hung several incomprehensible drawings, which were densely covered with strange symbols.
Xiao Bei walked to the table, picked up a drawing and looked at it carefully, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"These symbols... seem to be some kind of formation... and... I seem to have seen them somewhere..."
Just then, they heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from outside the door, getting closer and clearer.
Xiao Bei and Bei Li looked at each other, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts at the same time. A greater danger seemed to be approaching quietly.
"It seems like it's time for us to leave." Xiao Bei took Bei Li's hand, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes, "This place... seems to be hiding a bigger secret!"
