Chapter 233 Nothing happens
It was an unknown street with only one shop closed.

Following Feng Ling's instructions, Xu Yiming looked for a place to hide nearby. He chose a store selling bedding, took Li Qing and the injured spider cat and hid inside, pulled down the rolling door and locked it, then took out his cell phone and started counting the time.

Feng Ling said that he would call her in twenty minutes. If she didn't answer, it meant something had happened and he needed to take Li Qing to find the crow and leave the maze as soon as possible.

"Call me in twenty minutes, call me in twenty minutes..." Xu Yiming muttered while holding the phone.

Li Qing sat in the corner with his head down, looking completely devastated.

Xu Yiming saw it from the corner of his eye and walked over to comfort him: "Feng Ling will be fine, she is so strong."

Li Qing smiled bitterly, "Yes, she is so strong... I wish I could be that strong too."

"Who wouldn't want to?" Xu Yiming sighed and sat down next to Li Qing. "Unfortunately, I don't have the chance. I can't digest high-level cards. I guess my card ability will be like this in the future."

Li Qing was silent.

He was depressed here, not because of the strength of the cards, but because he was hit hard by his inability to decipher the maze... Then, his mood plummeted, and he lamented his own weakness and incompetence.

As an administrator, he should have provided Feng Ling with information on every detail, but now he can't help. Although his teammates will not blame or get angry with him for this, he is very disappointed with himself.

Li Qing has a big dream that Feng Ling doesn't know about.

He not only wants to save the administrators from the game, but also wants to save all the players. In order to avoid large-scale penalties when the system returns to normal in the future, eliminating the Star Association and maintaining the balance of the game are things he must do.

But now he was at a loss as to what to do after encountering only the second maze. He was indeed too weak.

Feng Ling is very strong and can save humanity, but he is too weak to save the people in his world...

Li Qing was immersed in the mood of painful literature.

The virtual screen suddenly lit up, and a message from Crow came from the administrator's domain, asking about his progress in conquering the maze.

Li Qing found it ridiculous. As the administrator of a maze, he knew how much percentage of the maze had been explored, whether the safe zone had been activated, whether the statue had been used, and even how many treasure chests had been opened. All this information was available for him to check. Why bother asking him about the progress?
Li Qing told Crow in a bad mood that a player had disappeared in the maze and the hidden boss had also lost contact, so the situation was very unclear.

Crow: It seems that even the hidden boss can't break through this maze. Every player who enters the maze disappears. Is it destined that we will be killed by the players... I really want to go home.

Li Qing was stunned and immediately asked: Has a player come in before? What do you know?
Crow: I'm sorry for lying to you. I didn't mean to deceive you. I was afraid that you would not want to enter my maze after knowing it. I really want to log off... I don't want to die, I want to live...

…………

……

Li Qing stood up suddenly!
Xu Yiming, who was standing next to him, was startled and asked in surprise, "What happened?!"

Li Qing didn't say anything. He took a few steps forward and then walked back quickly with an extremely ugly look on his face.

"You, say something, what's wrong?" Xu Yiming was confused by his reaction.

"Call Feng Ling quickly!" Li Qing suddenly said.

"But Feng Ling said it would take 20 minutes..." Xu Yiming picked up his phone to check the time, "It's just past 18 minutes now."

"Hit her now!" Li Qing approached him, his expression extremely serious, "There is something wrong with this maze, I must tell her as soon as possible, otherwise she might get into trouble!"

Xu Yiming thought that there was not much difference between 18 minutes and 20 minutes, so he called Feng Ling.

I waited for a long time, but no one answered.

Xu Yiming's forehead began to sweat, and he looked at Li Qing from time to time, "No one answered the phone..."

Li Qing's expression was not much better than his, and he said in a tense voice: "Call again!" Xu Yiming called again, and this time the call was connected after only two rings.

Hearing Feng Ling's voice coming from the other end of the phone, Xu Yiming and Li Qing both breathed a sigh of relief!

"Feng Ling!" Xu Yiming said quickly, "The Taoist priest said there is a problem with the maze and asked you to come back soon! We are in a store selling bedding. There is a mineral water bottle at the door. It is a mark I made."

"Got it, we'll go there right away."

Feng Ling's voice sounded calm, and he didn't show any surprise even when he heard him say there was a problem with the maze.

Xu Yiming could still vaguely hear the little girl crying, as if she was saying it hurts so much.

He couldn't help but ask: "Is it Miaomiao who is crying? Did you find her? Is everything okay? Is she injured?"

Feng Ling's tone was a little more cheerful: "Well, I found her. Nothing much. Let's talk when we get back."

call ended.

"That's great..." Xu Yiming let out a long sigh and looked at Li Qing with a smile, "Did you hear that? Feng Ling is fine, and Miaomiao has been found."

Li Qing's expression also relaxed a little.

This is the first good news after entering the maze.

Xu Yiming stood up and walked to the rolling door, listening to the noise outside with his ears close to his chest. "I wonder if Feng Ling can find this place. Every pedestrian street here looks almost the same. She won't get lost, will she?"

"Don't worry, she won't get lost." Li Qing said.

He was eagerly looking forward to her coming back soon.

……

Feng Ling didn't let the two wait too long.

Ten minutes later, clear footsteps were heard outside the rolling door.

Xu Yiming excitedly pulled up the shutter, "Feng Ling, I...Ahhhhhh!!!"

Two people covered in blood suddenly came into view, scaring Xu Yiming so much that he staggered backwards and fell to the ground!

His first reaction was that the monsters in the maze were coming to kill him!
Then Huangfu Miaomiao's face appeared behind the two bloody men, and only then could he recognize Feng Ling and Zheng Zheng with difficulty.

"Oh my god, I was almost scared to death..." Xu Yiming sat on the ground in amazement, "Didn't they say nothing happened? How did it become like this?!!"

Huangfu Miaomiao explained with tears in her eyes: "It's that mountain. That mountain can eat people. If you get close to it, you will be sucked in."

Her right foot and left leg had lost too much flesh and blood, and the bones were also affected, making it impossible for her to walk normally. She could only temporarily let her lower body move in ghost form and slowly recover later.

Feng Ling turned around and closed the door, then grabbed the handle of the rolling door and pulled it down, leaving a horrific bloody handprint on the door handle.

Xu Yiming looked at it with shock.

He didn't even dare to look at Feng Ling's face for any longer.

What a face it was... Not a single bit of skin, and the eyeballs were prominently embedded in the facial muscle tissue, like a bloody skull.

Feng Ling himself was relaxed, and said with a faint smile: "There are all kinds of things in that mountain. We dug out the little skeleton from the meat, and also dug out a treasure chest. After we have a good rest, I plan to go to the truck to move a box of explosives and blow up the mountain. There must be a lot of good things in it."

"By the way," she looked at Li Qing, "what's the problem with the maze?"
