It was precisely because the throne was also part of the seal that the seal could only be completely removed by inserting the dagger into the throne's mechanism. That was why Mildan did not move after Li Wei pulled out the dagger.
He knew that the seal had not been completely removed. Only when they inserted the dagger into the mechanism of the throne could he regain his freedom.
Mildan knew this, but Li Wei and the other two did not.
After pulling out the dagger, they waited vigilantly for dozens of minutes. However, other than the faint light on the stone platform, nothing else changed. This made them relax their vigilance.
As the saying goes, one time, three times, three times, and it will be exhausted.
When facing Mildan, Li Wei and the others had tensed up three times. It was only now that they, who had just let down their guard, realized that everything that had happened before was just a deliberate act by Mildan, or rather, this huge purple-faced corpse worm!
Even the previous conversation was deliberately said by Mildan in order to lower their vigilance. Mildan knew that these people were from the outside world. They would definitely not be willing to be trapped here and would definitely find a way out.
As long as they wanted to get out, then his chance would come!
Seeing Mildan's maniacal laughter, not only did Li Wei and the others understand this, but even the netizens in the live broadcast room instantly understood Mildan's plan.
" This guy…is so sinister!"
"A mere bug…is it so cunning?”
"Oh my god! If this bug managed to escape, how terrifying would that be!”
"What kind of monster did Li Wei and the others release?”
Faced with Mildan's attack, Li Wei and the other two did not dare to retaliate at all. Instead, they fled while dodging.
If this insect was like the Mars Mako King, only able to breathe fire, Li Wei would not be afraid. However, this fellow, as long as it made a small wound on your body, it would send its eggs into your body and make you die without a complete corpse.
Li Wei hated this kind of enemy the most!
Hit it, its size is too big, you might not be able to kill it; If he was hit by it, he would be finished. However, if he didn't fight, this damned guy wouldn't let go of him. He couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
In addition, as the mechanism was activated, the entire Ancient Loulan City began to shake. Whether it was in the main hall or outside the main hall, sand flowed down with a whoosh. It looked like the Ancient Loulan City was about to be completely submerged.
There was no other way. Even if they had to fight, Li Wei and the others did not dare to stay here and fight this huge Purple-faced Corpse Bug. Otherwise, they might be buried alive by the sand before they could finish fighting.
As he ran up the stairs that appeared outside the hall after the mechanism was activated, Li Wei complained,""I'm starting to doubt if what he said to us earlier was true. And what about the fact that it became like that because it ate the insect eggs, but that vine that grew the Scarlet Feather Fruit turned into a corpse worm…Hey, little brother, is that legend you spoke of true?”
"The legend should be true!" The young man dodged the attack of a tentacle and ran up a few steps. Then, he continued,"Combined with the current situation, I have a guess: Perhaps, the Red Feather Fruit was the true egg of the Purple-faced Corpse Worm! Anyone who touched the Red Feather Fruit would be invaded by the Purple-faced Corpse Worm's egg and die in a very short time!”
"Eh?" Li Wei thought about it carefully and found that this conjecture was quite possible.
The legendary Red Feather Fruit had the effect of immortality, and the people of Gu Loulan were all immortal. However, this immortality was actually only their skin. The purple-faced corpse worms had completely devoured their insides.
If the rumors of the Scarlet Feather Fruit's poison were added, then this guess was very likely to be correct?!
The netizens also heard the little brother's words through the live broadcast room. In addition, Li Wei had also mentioned his own conjecture, so everyone could not help but stay away from the legendary Red Feather Fruit that could make people immortal.
After all, it was true that everyone wanted to live forever, but even if they wanted to live forever, they did not want to be eaten from the inside out by insects.
Perhaps it was his survival instinct. Or perhaps, this was a human's pride?
Due to its huge size, the Purple-faced Corpse Worm was still trapped in the hall even after the seal was removed.
Only its head and tentacles were dancing wildly in the hall, while most of its body was trapped in the tower.
Although Li Wei and the others had already climbed up the stairs and would be able to escape in no time, the Purple-faced Zombie Bugs below were still frantically hitting the floor of the hall, hoping to escape.
As it crashed into the ground, the floor started to change shape, and Li Wei and the others also felt their feet becoming unstable.
However, the group of people were not ordinary people. After adjusting themselves, they quickly ran toward the top of the tower.
The top of the tower was not far from the ground, but when Li Wei and the others climbed up, they realized that it was actually a canyon, and the bottom of the canyon was still collapsing.
"Let's go!"
After identifying the direction, Li Wei took a step forward and ran towards the nearest canyon entrance.
Although they had escaped from the Ancient City of Loulan, it did not mean that they were safe now.
If they couldn't escape far enough, they would suffer when Gu Loulan was buried by the quicksand!
After sprinting for more than ten minutes, the three of them finally ran out of the canyon.
However, just as they ran out of the canyon, a sharp whistle came from behind them. The purple-faced corpse worm had actually broken through the floor of the hall and really ran out!
Looking at the purple-faced corpse bug that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at him, even Li Wei broke out in a cold sweat.
"This guy…does he have any weaknesses?”
"Flames! Just like those small purple-faced corpse bugs, they were afraid of fire! Normally, when we encounter corpses corroded by the Purple-faced Corpse Bugs, we will cremate them at the fastest speed possible!”
"But where are we going to find flames now?”
Li Wei was suddenly stunned. He turned his head and shouted at the young man,"Do you have any left of the thing you took out from the Mars Mako Lord?”
"No more!" The little brother shook his head. When facing those ordinary purple-faced corpse bugs, all the sac fluid was used by him to cover the three of them.
Even if there were any left, he couldn't find a container to store the fluid in the emergency.
" Then there's nothing I can do…" Li Wei shook his head with a bitter smile. He looked nervously at the approaching purple-faced corpse worm.
This time, it seemed like he had to risk his life!
