In the silent cave, the survivors had silent expressions, but in their hearts they were thinking about when they would be able to leave.
Three days have passed since the accident, but no rescue has arrived.
Even during these three days, they never heard any movement from the outside world, which proved that no rescue operation was launched at all.
Such a result must be related to that king-level sea monster.
If you want to deal with a king-level sea monster, you need at least five king-level monks, otherwise it is impossible to be its opponent.
The entire island can gather this number of experts, but that doesn't mean they are willing to take action against the sea monster. After all, they have to take great risks, and their lives may be in danger if they are not careful.
The appropriate solution is to delay the situation until the king-level sea monster is unable to get out, and then it will probably leave on its own initiative.
The price paid in this way was minimal, at best it was sacrificing some residents, but in the end the entire town was saved.
Those outside can naturally tell which one is light and which is serious.
But as a result, the survivors trapped in the cave became abandoned and no one cared about them at all.
In this case, if you don't try to save yourself, you may never wait for rescue to come.
The survivors were also aware of this problem. While feeling angry, they also tried to find ways to save themselves.
"How about we pry the rocks together and see if we can dig out a passage?"
Some of the survivors who were on guard made this suggestion.
"Don't think about it. I've already tried it before and it didn't work at all. Otherwise, why would I have to wait until now?
Those rocks are so huge and hard that they are fundamentally different from ordinary rocks. Even the cave at your feet is completely natural, and it is almost impossible to dig it manually.
And we don’t have any digging tools in our hands, so the swords in our hands alone won’t do anything!”
The speaker was a town resident. He had lived here for decades and was familiar with the geography and customs. Naturally, he also knew how hard these rocks were.
This island is a product of the creation ball. It is completely different from normal stones and has an astonishing density.
"If we can't get out through the exit, then where can we leave? We can't wait to die here, right?"
Someone asked, his face full of unwillingness.
"The resources in the cave will not last long. It is estimated that in three to five days, the food here will be exhausted.
Even if we can persist for a while, what should we do when we reach the limit?
Even if you are not killed by monsters, you will die of thirst and starvation, which would be even worse!"
Hearing these resentful words, the survivors around him felt sad again, and their hearts were full of helplessness.
"Actually, it's not that there's no way to leave here. It's just that you have to take a certain risk. It's best not to do it until you're at the end of your rope."
After thinking for a while, the local resident said to everyone, but his tone was a little hesitant.
The survivors' eyes lit up when they heard this, and they quickly urged him to tell him what else they could do.
"The method I mentioned is actually very simple, which is to enter other passages through these deep pits and find a way out.
As long as we find the marked passage, we can follow the passage until we successfully return to the ground.
But there is not only sea water in this deep pit, but also many monsters and strange plants. Every situation may take away lives.
Moreover, the interior of the passage is intricate and complicated, and you will get lost in it if you are not careful. Even the best guide cannot guarantee that you will never get lost.
Over the past few years, countless people have gotten lost in underground passages, and 99% of them have not come out alive."
When the local residents said this, they shook their heads and sighed: "That's why I said that we must not do this until the end of the road, otherwise it is not much different from seeking death."
After hearing the descriptions of local residents, the hope in the eyes of the survivors dimmed again, and they shook their heads secretly.
The way to survive that the other party talks about is actually a dead end in their eyes. Unless they know that they will die, no one is willing to make such an attempt.
If you get lost in an underground passage, or encounter a sea monster inside, you won't be able to find a place to hide.
Rather than that, it is better to wait here for rescue. Although the hope is equally slim, it will at least be much safer.
It seemed that this topic was too heavy, and the survivors quickly lost interest in chatting, and soon became silent again.
The dark cave once again returned to deathly silence...
Among the three men, two were responsible for guarding and one lay down to rest.
Because of what happened earlier, those who lay down to rest could not sleep peacefully. From time to time, someone would wake up from their dreams and look over their heads warily.
After confirming that there is nothing abnormal above their heads, they will breathe a sigh of relief, lie down again, and continue to catch up on their sleep.
This anxious way of resting made everyone more tired, and the look of tiredness on their faces became more intense.
It seems to be subconscious. Every time people wake up, they will look at the three men to make sure they are okay?
As long as they are alive, it means that they are still safe.
After this situation lasted for nearly an hour, everyone finally couldn't bear the fatigue coming from their bodies and fell into sleep one after another.
Just when the survivors outside the circle were on guard and most of the survivors in the car were asleep, the man lying in the circle suddenly opened his eyes.
He stood up slowly and looked at the guards around him, with a look of shock on his face.
It turned out that among the vigilantes in the outer circle, a figure suddenly appeared, sitting silently on a stone.
The figure on the back is very familiar, it seems to be someone I know, but I can't remember who it is.
His back was hunched, and water kept dripping from his clothes, making the stone he was sitting on a large area wet.
"Who are you?"
The man in the circle looked at the back and asked in a doubtful tone, while his body twisted slightly.
The back figure didn't seem to react at all, still sitting quietly, but the water dripping from the body seemed to be faster, as if the entire stone had been soaked without realizing it.
The water flow spread in all directions, but the people around him didn't seem to notice it at all, as if they didn't even notice that there was someone else around them.
Seeing such an abnormal scene, the man in the circle trembled slightly, then slowly backed up.
At this moment, the figure sitting on the stone suddenly stretched out his hand and waved to him.
His back was obviously facing him, but his waving gesture made it seem as if the figure was facing him.
The man's eyes seemed to be in a daze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal and still stepped back firmly.
It seems that he did not expect this situation to happen. The figure sitting on the stone was stunned for a moment, then stood up on his own initiative and slowly walked towards the man in the circle.
The strange figure of the software walked towards him. The man in the circle showed a hint of panic and began to retreat faster.
But at this time, he was like a rusty machine. What he thought was a sharp retreat was actually as slow as a snail.
Within a few breaths, that strange figure had already appeared in front of him, but its back was still facing him.
The distance between the two was less than a foot, and then the strange figure suddenly turned its head, revealing a frightened and twisted face.
