Chapter 1590
At this moment, they found a faint light ahead.
"Is that the exit?" Hu Bayi said excitedly.
The three walked towards the light, full of hope.
When they finally walked out of the ditch, the sun shone on them. At that moment, they felt extremely fortunate and happy.
"Finally out, this is really a nightmare." Wang Kaixuan sighed.
Huo Jilin looked at the ancient tomb in the distance and said with a firm look in his eyes: "This matter is not over yet. We must find a way to crack the poison gas and rescue those soldiers!"
Hu Bayi nodded: "That's right, we can't let them become monsters like this!"
However, before walking far, Huo Jilin heard a noisy sound of footsteps and a low roar from behind.
"No, they are catching up!" Huo Jilin's face suddenly changed, and a panic surged in his heart.
Hu Bayi looked back and saw those mutated soldiers surging like a tide, and their figures looked particularly hideous in the dim light.
"Run! Don't let them catch you!" Hu Bayi shouted, his voice trembling.
Wang Kaixuan's legs went weak with fear, but he still desperately followed Huo Jilin and Hu Bayi and ran forward.
"What should we do? Where should we run?" Wang Kaixuan asked breathlessly while running.
Huo Jilin looked ahead firmly and said, "Run to that volcano, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!"
The three of them changed direction and ran towards the volcano in the distance with thick smoke.
Their footsteps stumbled on the rugged mountain road, and their clothes were soaked with sweat.
Huo Jilin's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and he prayed in his heart: "I hope we can escape this disaster."
Hu Bayi ran while vigilantly observing the situation around him, holding the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.
Wang Kaixuan was breathing heavily, muttering: "What is going on? Why are we so unlucky!"
Just when they were about to approach the volcano, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.
"Oh no, the volcano is going to erupt!" Huo Jilin exclaimed.
At this time, there was no way out, and the three of them could only bite the bullet and continue to approach the volcano.
The crater continued to spew out billowing smoke and hot magma, as if an angry beast was about to wake up.
"Hide somewhere!" Hu Bayi shouted loudly.
Their eyes searched around eagerly, and finally found a huge stone.
"Hide behind that stone!" Huo Jilin pointed at the stone and shouted.
The three ran to the back of the boulder as fast as possible, sticking tightly to the stone wall, not daring to breathe.
Huo Jilin's heart was pounding, and he kept repeating in his heart: "Don't be discovered, don't be discovered."
Hu Bayi's forehead was covered with sweat, and his eyes were full of tension and fear.
Wang Kaixuan was so scared that he trembled all over, and his teeth kept chattering.
At this moment, the volcano erupted completely.
The hot magma gushed out like a torrent, spreading to the surroundings.
The mutant soldiers who were chasing them were unable to dodge and were instantly submerged by the rolling magma.
"Ah..." The soldiers screamed shrilly and struggled in the magma, but soon disappeared without a trace.
Huo Jilin saw this scene through the gap between the boulders, and felt a little fortunate and very sorry.
"So many soldiers, just gone..." he murmured to himself, with sadness in his eyes.
Hu Bayi patted his shoulder and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. They are no longer the same as they used to be."
Wang Kaixuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately we hid in time, otherwise we would have been the same as them."
The three hid behind the boulder for a long time until the volcano gradually subsided and the temperature around them slowly dropped.
"I think it should be safe. Let's go out." Hu Bayi carefully poked his head out and observed the surrounding situation.
Huo Jilin nodded, stood up, and said, "Let's go, be careful."
They walked out of the boulder and saw a mess in front of them.
The ground was covered with magma, and the air was filled with a pungent smell.
Wang Kaixuan looked at everything destroyed by the molten lava and said with emotion: "This is too terrible. I hope I won't encounter such a thing again in the future."
Huo Jilin looked into the distance and said: "After this, we must be more careful. I don't know what dangers are waiting for us ahead."
Hu Bayi clenched his fists and said: "Just like I said before, no matter what, we must face it bravely."
Huo Jilin was breathing heavily at this time, and sweat kept sliding down his cheeks.He observed his surroundings vigilantly while trying to calm his rapid breathing.
Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a scene in the crater.
"Look!" Huo Jilin pointed to the crater with a hint of surprise in his voice.
Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a mottled tombstone standing in the crater after the volcano calmed down.
Hu Bayi frowned, his eyes full of doubts: "Why is there a tombstone here? Is there an ancient tomb hidden in it?"
Wang Kaixuan widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "No way, this is a volcano, is it a volcanic tomb?"
Huo Jilin's heartbeat accelerated a bit, he thought for a moment and said: "Anyway, let's go and have a look."
Hu Bayi nodded, his expression serious: "Well, maybe we can find some clues to figure out the cause of this series of strange events."
Although Wang Kaixuan was a little scared, he gritted his teeth and followed their pace: "Okay, let's go!"
The three of them walked carefully towards the crater, the ground under their feet was still emitting residual heat, and they could feel the heat coming from the soles of their shoes with every step.
Huo Jilin walked in front, holding a dagger tightly in his hand in case of any emergency.
Finally, they came to the tombstone.
There were some strange symbols and patterns engraved on the tombstone, which made people confused.
"What does this mean?" Wang Kaixuan scratched his head.
Huo Jilin carefully observed the symbols and fell into deep thought: "I don't know, but this must hide important information."
Hu Bayi walked around the tombstone and said, "Don't worry about it, let's go in and take a look."
They walked slowly into the ancient tomb along a narrow passage next to the tombstone.
As soon as they entered, a stale smell came to their faces.
The three found that there was actually a small palace here, with moss on the walls of the palace and spider webs in the corners.
"My God, this place looks a bit old." Wang Kaixuan muttered softly.
Huo Jilin walked forward carefully, his eyes kept looking around.
Hu Bayi suddenly shouted: "Look, there are a lot of cars there!"
They looked in the direction Hu Bayi pointed, and saw many rusty cars parked on one side of the palace.
Wang Kaixuan ran over quickly and said excitedly: "Maybe these cars can still be used!"
