In the long and dim tunnel, at the end there was a puddle of water whose depth could not be seen, from which suddenly there came a gurgling sound.
The water surface, which had been calm for a long time, was suddenly broken by some violent fluctuations. The water surface was agitated, as if something big was about to emerge from it. But it seemed to be always restricted by something. The water surface kept shaking and undulating, but the thing underneath never emerged.
As if it had exhausted all its strength, the unknown object suddenly lost its power and sank into the water, and the water surface became quiet in an instant.
It was as if there was a force rolling and shaking under the pool, stirring the entire water surface into chaos.
A round object of unknown origin suddenly emerged from the bottom of the water, and then the part connected to the lower part also struggled to half float up.
—A person suddenly emerged from the bottom of the water.
However, from her trembling shoulders and the difficulty in moving her head and neck, it could be seen that the process of her floating was not smooth.
The other person seemed to be restrained and dragged down by something from the bottom, and it was difficult for him to get up no matter what he did.
Seeing that the trembling shoulder that had half broken free seemed about to sink into the water again, the other party suddenly rushed forward with all his might, raising his arms high. His weak fingertips tightened the instant they touched the rough rock surface, and he pulled it up with all his might.
Although he failed naturally because of the wet silk on the contact surface, he did not give up. He got the strength from nowhere and rushed upwards diagonally, forcing the part above his chest out of the water.
After an unknown amount of time, the man's hands, clinging to the rock and groping for a while, finally reached a place that looked like a platform.
The girl was overjoyed, and immediately exerted all her weight to lift herself up, intending to use the edge of the stone platform to get herself out of the water.
Although she still overestimated her own strength, she failed once, twice, and once again... She groped around for several times, almost wearing out her fingertips, but still failed to climb up successfully.
In fact, at one point her elbows were almost on the stone platform, but because of the slippery surface, half of her body fell back into the water and she had to start all over again.
"Scared, scared—" Jiang Hui didn't know how he climbed up. His brain seemed to be filled with water, and he was a little short of oxygen. He felt dizzy, and his index finger and the front and side of his palm were in great pain and burning. It was estimated that there were many wounds from the scratches.
She finally climbed to the top of the stone platform with the support of her elbows. When she felt her knees and calves were on the horizontal surface, Jiang Hui's heart instantly stabilized.
She did not care how ugly her current posture was. With the support of her elbows and knees, Jiang Hui almost dragged and crawled forward, successfully escaping from the deadly pool of water, leaving a trail of water behind.
If someone watched the whole process, they would probably know why it was so difficult for Jiang Hui to come up. Because she did not climb out of the water without anything, she was wearing a safety belt around her waist, and there were several long ropes extending from the front and back, dragging backwards, and the other end was still submerged in the water.
There were three ropes wrapped around her legs, tied into a tangled knot, blocking most of her ability to move. Even someone who knew how to swim would probably be dragged to death.
It was a close call. If she had fainted halfway through, she would have probably been out of the game when she woke up. Although Jiang Hui had never thought that she would be able to hold on to the end and was always prepared to be eliminated, she had never thought that it would be in this way.
Obviously she can swim, and it would be too unfair if she was eliminated because of such an embarrassing reason as her feet were entangled in the rope.
Jiang Hui's mind, which hadn't yet come to its senses, was thinking about some inappropriate things, and then she remembered... No, what was she thinking about, where were her teammates behind her? ! Two!
Poor guys, I hope they won’t be eliminated directly because of suffocation…
Jiang Hui quickly untied the tangled ropes and tried to pull the two people out of the water.
Of course, they didn't use human power. Even if Jiang Hui wanted to pull it manually, he probably didn't have that much strength. Fortunately, for the sake of safety, they discussed and fastened the retractable rope for connection along the way, otherwise the three of them would probably be separated at this moment.
This retractable rope can be automatically retracted and adjusted, which makes it convenient for Jiang Hui to pull people.
Feeling a slightly heavy pull from the other end, Jiang Hui heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that the two of them should be able to hold on.
When he saw two people struggling to emerge from the water, Jiang Hui hurried forward to help, and after great effort he pulled the two poor people, who were somewhat demented due to being drowned, ashore.
The poor two were completely drowned and dumbfounded. They struggled to come out by instinct, but when they found they were rescued, they relaxed and lost the strength to struggle. Jiang Hui had to drag and pull them up roughly. They didn't even struggle at all during the process. It was really tragic.
It was difficult for them. Two of them had never touched water before, and one of them was extremely hydrophobic. After such an experience, they didn't know whether they would have a lifelong psychological trauma against water, because even Jiang Hui was almost traumatized.
They asked the group why they were suddenly submerged in the water when they were floating in the flooded tunnel. It's a long story... They were also swept here unexpectedly, and they still don't know what happened.
After picking up the spiritual energy supplement, the group continued to swim forward for a while, picking up some useless small things one after another, but the journey was still smooth.
The conditions of the other two were also getting better and better. Jiang Hui was still thinking about whether to let them go and let them swim on their own.
Soon after swimming for a while, the water surface suddenly became a little turbulent. Before the few people could react, the surrounding water flow environment suddenly changed dramatically and the water level rose.
Jiang Hui and the others were startled and had no time to dodge. A huge force entangled their feet and pulled them under the water together.
Even Jiang Hui, who was good at swimming, didn't react to such an emergency. He just struggled instinctively, trying to get out of the whirlpool. The other two didn't even have the ability to struggle. After a while, they were swept away to an unknown direction with the torrent.
Although they seemed to be saved, they were still in a desperate situation. Jiang Hui supported Zhou Xiuwen, who was coughing due to choking on water, and glanced at the bright red number on the electronic screen of the opponent's simulated bra, which showed that he was about to enter the bottom red line, wondering whether he should discuss with the opponent to let him leave the game directly.
"Ding, total charging energy block A1 has been found. The simulated bra is now in charging mode. There is no limit on the charging amount and you can charge freely. The countdown to the opening of the supply point is 02:00:00 AM. After the countdown ends, everyone here will be sent away from this point."
