Chapter 839: Chapter 839: A Sword

The group made their way back to the place where Slade had met his fate.

The stone chamber was pitch dark, void of any glimmer of light. They shone their flashlights around and spotted a short sword at the spot where Slade had lain.

It was difficult to call it a sword.

Bai Youwei even doubted whether it had been pryed directly from the mural, because it looked just as abstract! The blackish iron object had been rudely fashioned into the semblance of a sword, and it was extremely crude.

If they had searched their companions at the start, even if she had found it, Bai Youwei might not have recognized it as a sword; it resembled a poorly crafted cross more than anything.

Asarina picked up the sword from the ground and looked around.

...

No sign of Slade.

He had already been devoured to the extent that not a bone remained, his hair and clothes entirely erased by the stone chamber.

“To think that the sword we’ve been searching for so long would be here…”

“Now, let’s go finish off the Minotaur, and we can leave the labyrinth,” Leonid declared, clenching his fists in anticipation, “Once it’s dead, I’m going to have a huge meal! Damn it, I’m starving to death!”

After a moment of silence, Du Lai nodded in agreement, “Let’s make it quick. We really can’t linger in this place for too long.”

Bai Youwei, perched on Shen Mo’s back, looked down at the compass, “If the Minotaur is still in its original spot, we can take the teleportation point, then head west for two rooms, then south… The Minotaur will move towards us as well.”

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Leonid, “Are you sure you’re okay with that wound?”

A chunk of flesh had been bitten off Leonid’s shoulder by the Minotaur.

Bai Youwei hadn’t used the mud on him, people who had been through the labyrinth several times had a strong ability to recover. Unless it was a fatal wound, there was no need to use the mud.

Leonid tightened the bandage on his shoulder and replied, “I won’t die from this; injuries are a trifling matter. Let’s hurry and act while the few of us haven’t gone mad.”

“Alright…” Bai Youwei looked around, her voice dropping, “but I need to remind you, we only have one chance. If it doesn’t die, then one of us must die so the others can escape.”

They looked at each other.

They had agreed to enter the labyrinth to improve their Physical Abilities and until the very end, who would want to die?

“Let’s go.” Shen Mo, carrying Bai Youwei on his back, whispered, “As long as there’s no problem with this sword, we don’t have to die.”

This was the first time they were not avoiding, but instead heading directly towards the Minotaur.

Black bugs flew and crawled over Shen Mo’s body from time to time.

Leonid and Du Lai were not immune to the bugs either, even swatting them away only resulted in their buzzing return after a while.

As they neared the Minotaur, the insects became even more gleeful in flight, their numbers subtly increasing.

Shen Mo’s breathing grew heavier as well.

Bai Youwei knew they were being affected.

“Put me down,” Bai Youwei said softly.

Shen Mo halted his steps, silently for a moment, then gently set Bai Youwei down to check her legs.

Having entered the labyrinth multiple times, Bai Youwei’s body had a strong healing ability. The two deep cuts from earlier had stopped bleeding, but the wounds were red, making the knees when bent look like brackets on her legs, a somewhat odd sight.

Shen Mo held up her knee, uncertain what to say.

In that moment, something fuzzy scurried onto his shoulder, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw it was Bai Youwei’s rabbit.

It seemed to disdain the persistent black bugs on him, shifting slightly away.

Bai Youwei spoke, “You should take the rabbit. Although it’s only been charged overnight and may not have much power left, it might be able to cause some interference with the Minotaur. When the time comes, you’ll have to seize the moment and pierce its heart with the sword…”

She halted, pressing her lips together, gazing at Shen Mo: “Chen Hui and I will wait outside for your good news.”

Looking into her eyes, Shen Mo nodded, “Okay.”
