Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

Chi Yu, who has always been very capable, did not evacuate with him as Hei Yanjing had imagined.

Even at such a critical moment, his eyes still looked calm.

"Do you want to be burned to death directly by fire, or do you want to be crushed to death by rubble?" Looking at the peacock that was undergoing a wonderful change, Chi Yu asked the man with black glasses softly.

"What difference does it make, Boss Chi? I think the most important thing for us now is to escape."

When he said this, he could no longer see clearly through his black glasses.

The light emanating from the peacock was too dazzling for him. Even with the sunglasses blocking his view, the world in front of him began to turn white.

However, this did not affect the man with black glasses who had been prepared for this situation. He spotted Chi Yu's location from all the swaying shadows, grabbed his arm, and ran out of the hall with him.

Chi Yu turned his eyes away from the peacock's body and let the man with black glasses drag him away from the giant bird's corpse.

But after the two of them passed through the gate, Chi Yu stopped and did not move forward.

According to the progress bar displayed by the system, the Peacock's revival process has only been loaded to 4%. It is estimated that it will take a considerable amount of time before the progress bar can be fully filled.

But this time was still not enough for the two of them to take this opportunity to leave the royal tomb.

And as Peacock's main hate attractor, Peacock follows him wherever he goes.

Instead of waiting for it to complete its transformation and then fighting it, it is better to find a way to solve it now.

Although Chi Yu's health has dropped very low so far after the health bar barrier disappeared to a certain extent, but considering his special immortality as a player, he doesn't need to pay special attention to this.

After all, Chi Yu is now completely different from the ordinary person he was at the beginning, who could be easily killed by a bullet.

Sensing Chi Yu's pause, the man with black glasses turned around and asked, "Boss Chi?"

Chi Yu stared at him: "Given the current situation, we won't be able to escape successfully just by running away."

"So you have any other solution?" The man with black glasses said "Oh?" "If not, we'd better run faster. The thing in there doesn't give me a good feeling. I don't want to lose my life just because of that guy coming back to life."

"If it survives, you will be the one who dies, not me."

Chi Yu replied casually, thinking that he could be resurrected after all, so even if it was a second-stage boss, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Black Glasses laughed after hearing this, thinking that this person would never play such a joke on him again, but he still followed Chi Yu's words and continued: "Okay, then I am afraid. Military Advisor Chi, please be kind and don't let a blind man like me die here, okay?"

"How much do you think your life is worth?"

"My life? My life is worthless." The man with black glasses smiled and replied, "If you save my life, I will at most do a few things for you for free. You want to get money from me? That's not possible."

Chi Yu looked at him and tilted her head: "It's not enough to just do the job. You owe me the money. You need to leave here first."

"What about you?" asked the man with black glasses.

"I'll go back and take care of Peacock's affairs."

Hearing this, Black Glasses frowned and wanted to object, but then he heard Chi Yu say, "The peacock is now in a state of transformation and regression. If it succeeds, it will definitely come out to seek revenge on us."

“However, this process is not impossible to be interrupted. But the price of interruption is that it will cause a huge explosion.” Chi Yu said, and raised his head to gesture to the man with black glasses about the surrounding environment.

"We are deep underground now. If there is an explosion, the geological structure here will be severely damaged and changed, causing the rock layer to become unstable and fractured, and we will all be buried alive."

"Of course, having said that, as long as you don't face the explosion directly, you may still have a chance of survival." Chi Yu pulled his arm away from the hand of the man with black glasses, waved at him, turned around and walked towards the hall, "So you should retreat first, and leave this to me."

The man with black glasses said, "According to what you said, if you do this, won't you have to face the explosion directly?"

"Of course not. Even an explosion would have a certain delay. I'm not stupid enough to put myself in a deadly situation."

Chi Yu said slowly, his voice calm and revealing a calmness, as if he already understood the whole situation and everything was under his control.

"——If you are left behind by me later, I won't care about you."

"unnecessary."

A pair of hands rested on Chi Yu's shoulders. He tilted his head slightly and found that the man with black glasses had returned to his usual expression. He was now looking at him with a smile: "Military Advisor Chi, I told you that I will always be watching you. I will wait for you here. Don't worry, I am also very fast when it comes to escaping."

"up to you."

Chi Yu walked into the hall again.

At this time, the peacock's feathers were already stained with dazzling golden light, and the hot breath in the air made even Chi Yu feel a little hot.

Looking at the progress bar that had reached 32%, Chi Yu took out a new dart from the system backpack, aimed at the obviously marked node on Peacock's body, and threw it hard.

The peacock's transformation process ended as the dart was completely inserted into the peacock. On the display, the progress bar that only Chi Yu could see instantly shattered and turned into redundant data streams that floated in the air.

The huge bird corpse that had lost its ability to transform was inflated by the energy trapped in its body. The heat in the hall also formed a small vortex, rushing towards the peacock's corpse.

Seeing this, Chi Yu no longer hesitated and quickly left the hall. When passing by Black Glasses, he took the time to say to him, "Let's go."

The man with black glasses smiled but didn't say anything else. Their figures ran wildly throughout the royal tomb deep underground.

Not long after they left the area where the peacock was, a loud noise accompanied by an earthquake was clearly felt by the two.

Feeling the heat from behind him, Chi Yu knew that this was the complete release of the energy that Peacock had generated before.

In the dark tunnel, only the light of the two people's flashlights kept shaking, and because of the shock caused by the explosion, countless cracks appeared on the stone wall, countless stones kept falling from it, and even the display on the Moyu map had changed greatly.

All the mechanism details on the Moyu map before, even if they were not activated, began to turn red, and were in a state where they could be triggered at any time.

The entire royal mausoleum suddenly became full of dangers.

This violent shock seemed to have no end. As time went by, the cracks around it became more and more obvious. The broken stones also added a lot of difficulties to the two people's evacuation.

When Chi Yu and Black Glasses finally arrived at the spacious hall not far from the exit, the platform that had been barely holding up suddenly collapsed without any warning.

"Boss Chi, be careful!"

"Mind yourself."

In an instant, a heart-pounding feeling of weightlessness came over them, and their bodies involuntarily lost balance as their foothold disappeared.

With a loud "bang", Chi Yu and the man with black glasses fell rapidly in the darkness, as if they were dragged into an endless abyss by an invisible force.
