Chapter 79

The Black Vatican Appears

After dealing with Chen Zhan, Lin Chen and the others immediately rushed to Zhang Tian and Liu Lin's side.

Rou Rou helped Liu Lin up and carefully examined her breathing: "She's still alive, but her body was too exhausted and she fainted."

Rou Rou took out a bottle of medicine from her bosom, pried open Liu Lin's mouth, and carefully fed it to her. After receiving the medicine, Liu Lin slowly woke up from her coma.

"The captain is alright, but his wound is still bleeding. I've run out of the hemostatic medicine I brought. Does anyone have any left?" Wang Min tightly covered Captain Zhang Tian's blood-stained right wrist.

"We've run out of ours too." Rou Rou seemed a little lost.

"I have some!" Lin Chen took out a blood-clotting herb and a bandage from his backpack, crushed the herb, spread it on the bandage, and tied it to Zhang Tian's right wrist.

"Luckily, his hand is still intact. I don't know if it can be reattached when we get back." Liu Meng picked up Zhang Tian's severed right hand from a short distance away.

Seeing that Zhang Tian and Liu Lin were both alright and their life force was beginning to return, Lin Chen finally felt relieved and walked towards the Tyrannosaurus Beast.

At this moment, Garurumon and Guilmon are standing beside Greymon, thanking it for taking the damage for them with its own body.

Lin Chen walked up to the Tyrannosaurus Rex and patted its toes, signaling it to shrink its size.

This is one of the benefits that Lin Chen discovered about miniaturization: when Digimon are in miniature, they require less energy and medicine, but their physical strength and recovery from injuries are accelerated.

Lin Chen took out the Blood-Coagulating Grass and carefully applied it to the more severely burned areas of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. He then fed some Azure Spirit Ear to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, praised it a few times, and put it away to allow it to recover in the Digimon Space.

Having gathered all the members of the Skyfire Squad and resolved the main problem, Chen Zhan, Lin Chen and the others had much more time. After resting for half an hour, they continued their search for a way to leave the Bewildering Valley.

After walking seven or eight miles through the swamp, a lake about a hundred meters in diameter appeared before them. The lake was as smooth as a mirror and crystal clear.

Just as Wang Min was about to go in to check the situation, Lingling stopped her, saying, "Kilmon, go catch a demon and throw it in to see what's going on."

Guilmon was very efficient, and soon brought back a demon.

At Lingling's command, Gilmon swung his fist and threw the demon in his hand into the lake.

As soon as the demon touched the lake water, it let out a series of screams. In everyone's eyes, it was as if it had touched highly corrosive acid water. In an instant, its entire body was swallowed up by the lake water.

"How could this be!" Lin Chen and the others were shocked and retreated in shock.

Wang Min's face was completely drained of color, and a chill ran down his spine. If Lingling hadn't stopped him in time, his fate would probably have been no better than that of the demon.

"What kind of lake is this? How can it melt flesh and bones? This is too eerie!" Zhang Tian, ​​who had already woken up, stared at the scene before him, his voice trembling. This was not because he was cowardly, but because he had never seen anything like it in his life.

"It must be the effect of the formation..." Lingling briefly described what they had encountered to Zhang Tian and Liu Lin. Zhang Tian and Liu Lin listened as if they were dreaming, as if an emperor-level demonic wolf was lying at their feet.

"Everyone, search the surrounding area carefully; there should be other instances of those special characters nearby."

After Lingling finished speaking, everyone began searching the vicinity, and sure enough, they found several special characters near the lake.

This book was first published on 2009.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

After Lingling took a picture of it with her phone and saved it, the group followed the previous method and had Garurumon attack the location of the special character.

Just as Garurumon's attack was about to hit the special character, a hurricane swept across the lake, carrying Lin Chen and the others away from the swamp.

More than ten minutes later, the hurricane stopped, and the world calmed down again. Lin Chen found himself and the others in a canyon.

"What should we do next?" Lin Chen asked.

"There are only two directions in the canyon, let's just choose one and see." Lingling didn't have any better ideas for the time being.

Upon hearing this, no one objected, and they proceeded in the direction Lingling had chosen.

After advancing for a short while, Lin Chen and the others noticed a phenomenon: every now and then, a gust of wind would blow from ahead.

The wind was powerful; when it was gentle, it felt like a light breeze, but when it was strong, it could lift people up and feel like being cut by a knife. Moreover, the duration of the wind varied, sometimes long and sometimes short, which greatly slowed down the speed of Lin Chen and the others.

After spending a great deal of time, Lin Chen and the others finally arrived at the end of the canyon. A huge ravine stretched out in front of them for several miles, and the hurricanes that blew in from time to time came from this ravine.

"Should we go down?" Lin Chen frowned, sensing an inexplicable danger below.

"No need, we can just look around here. I think there must be special characters here too." Lingling looked at the mini computer in front of her without looking up, as if she had discovered something.

Based on previous experience, the group quickly found several special characters and attacked them.

Sure enough, the moment the special character was attacked, a strong wind swept up from the ravine, engulfing Lin Chen and the others.

When Lin Chen and the others regained their sight, Lin Chen found that they had left the Valley of Confusion and reappeared at the entrance of the Valley of Confusion.

"Finally out." Lingling looked around and breathed a sigh of relief. "No wonder it takes a high-level mage to get out. If your attack power isn't high enough for high-level magic, you won't be able to escape even if you find those characters."

"Why is that?" Mu Nujiao asked curiously.

"Actually, we didn't get out because we found a way to break the formation; we were driven out by the formation as if we were pests."

"When the ancients set up this formation, they must have already estimated what level of power would be able to damage it. Once that level is reached, it will be sent directly to the next area and eventually driven out by the formation."

"Of course, if you accidentally die halfway through, you'll become nourishment for the formation." Lingling smiled helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the members of the Skyfire Squad looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of gratitude. If it weren't for Lin Chen risking his life to come to the rescue, and given the strength of their squad, they might have really perished here.

Lin Chen smiled slightly at the members of the Skyfire Squad and suggested that they immediately return to Shanghai to inform the higher-ups about what had happened there.

……

Several hours after Lin Chen and his group left, a group of people wearing black hooded jackets appeared at the entrance to the Valley of Confusion.

"Previously, Salang's fame spread throughout China through the chaos in Bo City, causing everyone to forget that Lord Jiuying was the true Cardinal of China. Now, we will enter the Valley of Confusion to break the seal, release the Wolf Emperor, and let everyone know who the real Cardinal of China is!"

After the leading man finished speaking, he waved his hand and took the lead into the bewildering valley, with the others following closely behind...
