Chapter 223 That Maze
Newt wanted to rush to stop Gary, but Gary didn't let Newt get close to him, and let other people stop Newt.
Originally, Newt was the deputy leader in the glade. These people respected Newt very much, but after yesterday's incident, these people were all scared out of their wits, and a shadow had already formed in their hearts. In addition, they believed that Guy It is because of Zuo Si and the others that the ghosts and fire beasts destroyed their living home, but Newt is on the side of Zuo Si and the others, so all the original respect these people had for Newt has disappeared, and now they Newt has been placed on top of the enemy's position.
The two men blocked Newt with wooden sticks. Newt was pushed back twice by them. The last time, Newt was almost pushed to the ground by them. He stood still and looked at his own body. The two men said, "Jack, Crede, why are you two stopping me? Let me go quickly, don't you remember the rules in the glade? Don't hurt our companions."
Before the two of them said anything, Gary had already walked over, and he was standing there looking at Newt who was standing across from him.
His face was indifferent, without any emotion: "They are not our partners. Because of their arrival, the glade became what it is now. Because of them, our homeland will be destroyed, and only by sacrificing them to the Griever can we live in peace again. We are not hurting our companions now, we are only dealing with our enemies."
Originally, Jack and Crede were still a little hesitant, but after hearing Gary's words, their eyes became determined again, and the sticks in their hands blocked Newt from the outside.
"Newt, I don't want to attack you. After all, you have been the leader of the glade for so many years. I hope you know that we are not enemies. Thomas Teresa and the other woman named Zuo Si are our enemies. Only by dedicating them all to the Griever can we go back to the old days."
"Newt, don't you want to live the life you used to? Our life has been very stable and peaceful. This is our home. Don't you want to rebuild our home with us?"
It has to be said that Gary's words are very provocative. If it were someone else, Gary might be incited, but Newt is not someone else. He is very aware of the current situation in the glade.
It was clear in his head that all that Gary had hoped for was just a dream, and after what happened, they would never be the same again.
"Gary, listen to me, they didn't cause all of this. We are what we are today because of what the organization behind it did. We've found our way out. They're here to help. Ours, you come with us, we escape from this ghost place together."
Just as Newt couldn't listen to what Gary said, Gary also couldn't listen to what Newt said. He only believed what he heard and saw, no matter what Newt said. He wouldn't believe anything.
"Okay, Newt, you don't need to say any more. I'm going to sacrifice these people to the Griever. We're already summoning the Griever. As long as the Griever comes here, it will take them away, and the glade And peace will be restored from now on.”
Gary did as he said, let other people hold some pots and bowls and other things at the entrance of the maze to knock the attention of the attracted ghosts and fires. Newt seemed to hear the ghosts and fires coming from the maze. roar.
He knew that both Thomas and Teresa used to be researchers at that base. The reason why they were thrown into this experimental site was because they wanted to rescue them. The members of that organization definitely didn't want them to leave. In the maze, if the two of them were taken away, they might have no hope of escaping.
However, with Newt's power now, it is impossible to bring those two people out. He gritted his teeth and tried to persuade Gary: "Gary, don't do this, calm down, listen to me..."
Gary wasn't talking to Newt, he turned around and walked towards the entrance of the maze. He wanted to summon the Griever and take the two of them away, as long as he sacrificed them to the Griever, the people in the glade These people will return to the kind of life they used to have.
Gary was already dazed, Newt didn't try to say anything to Gary anymore, he gritted his teeth, turned around and ran quickly towards the chamber, he wanted to hurry over and call for help , In any case, Thomas and Teresa must not have any accidents.
After Newt went out just now, Mino carried Zuo Si to a corner of the meeting room. Cook moved the table of the meeting room over, and Mino put Zuo Si on the table.
Mino looked down at Zuo Si's flushed face, and felt that Zuo Si's body temperature seemed to be getting higher and higher. The situation was critical. He had to cool down Zuo Si. If the fever continued, no one knew what would happen. matter.
Teresa still hasn't come back, Thomas hasn't been seen, and Newt hasn't come back after going out, Mino doesn't know what happened, but now he can't care about that at all, Zuo Si's situation is very bad, now he must Cool him down.
If there is no Teresa, then he will cool her down.
Mino gritted his teeth, he turned his head to look at Cook, ordered to find a sheet, and hung the sheet on both sides to cover the corner, then he brought in the water that Cook had found, and then He took off Zuo Si's clothes and began to physically cool her down.
Zuo Si's skin was snow-white, as if it were milk. Mino's fingers touched her skin inadvertently, and the greasy touch made Mino's fingers tremble uncontrollably.
This is a huge test for Mino, but seeing Zuo Si's abnormally red face, where does Mino have any charming thoughts?
Zuo Si's armpit, behind the ears, and groin were wiped back and forth many times. Zuo Si's body temperature seemed to drop a little, and the water temperature in the basin also rose. Mino asked Cook to change the water again and continue to help Zuo Si cooled down, and after changing two or three basins of water, the heat on Zuo Si's body slowly dropped.
Seeing this, Mino wiped Zuo Si's body with another piece of clean cloth, and then put her clothes back on.
When helping Zuo Si get dressed, Mino's palms were trembling. Thinking of the things he did just now, Mino was a little uneasy, even though he had to do those things in order to save Zuo Si just now out of desperation.But after all, those things he did have already crossed the border.
In any case, it was his fault, even if Zuo Si wanted to kill him after he woke up, Mino was willing.
As long as Zuo Si can survive, nothing else matters. If he does it all over again, Mino will make the same choice. All other things are not important, only Zuo Si's life is the most important.
After helping Zuo Si get dressed, Mino's face turned red. He looked at Zuo Si who was lying there, and saw her face slowly returning to normal. Mino couldn't help stretching out his hand and placed it on Zuo Si's forehead, feeling The temperature under his palm had returned to normal, and Mino breathed a sigh of relief. He originally wanted to watch Zuo Si wake up here, but before Zuo Si woke up, Newt had already rushed in.
"Mino!"
Newt called Mino's name, Mino agreed, and walked out from the corner. Newt's voice was anxious, as if something had happened.
After Mino went out, seeing the unconcealable anxious look on Newt's face, Mino asked, "Newt, what happened?"
Newt took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then told Mino what had just happened.
Newt's eyes widened when he heard Newt say that Gary was going to capture Thomas and Teresa and sacrifice the two of them to the ghosts.
"Is Gary crazy? Does he know what he's doing?"
The relationship between Mino and Gary was not bad before, but Mino never imagined that Gary would be crazy like this.
Sending Thomas and Teresa to the ghost fire beast is just a nice way of saying it. He clearly wanted to kill them.
How did Gary become like this?
Now is not the time to think about these things, what I think about now is how to rescue Thomas and Teresa back.
The number of opponents is much larger than that of their side, but no matter how many people there are, they must work together to rescue Thomas and Teresa.
Because only Thomas knows what the situation outside the base is like. If they want to leave here, Thomas and Teresa are very important people.
Newt and Mino immediately gathered the people who followed them, and then told them the current situation.
He specifically emphasized the importance of Thomas, saying that without Thomas, they would not be able to break out of the maze. Those people had some hesitation before, but when they heard the importance of Thomas, their hesitation disappeared instantly. up.
Everyone clamored to bring Thomas and Teresa back.
The noisy sounds outside stopped, and Zuo Si, who was lying on the table, slowly woke up. She opened her eyes and listened to the shouts coming from outside. Zuo Si's mind was a little confused, and her high fever had just subsided. The body also barely regained some strength.
After sitting on the table for a while, Zuo Si felt that her physical strength seemed to have almost recovered, so she jumped off the chair, opened the curtain, and went outside.
"what's going on?"
Zuo Si asked aloud, but no one else in the hall noticed her, and Zuo Si's voice was quickly suppressed by those noisy shouts.
Those people were noisy and didn't know what they were doing, Zuo Si frowned, and from their messy voices, he didn't know what happened.
Seeing this, Zuo Si walked through the crowd and came to Mino's side.
Zuo Si stretched out his hand, pulled Mino's clothes, and asked, "Minuo, what happened?"
Mino was arranging for everyone to rescue Thomas and Teresa, but just halfway through speaking, she felt her arm being grabbed by someone. She turned her head and found that she was lying on the table inside. Zuo Si woke up.
"Zuo Si, why did you come down? Has your body recovered? How do you feel? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Seeing Zuo Si woke up, Mino was very happy. He asked a lot of questions, wanting to know how Zuo Si's situation is now.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, I've fully recovered." Zuo Si said, and then continued to ask himself the question just now: "What happened?"
Zuo Si didn't seem to care about himself at all, but kept asking what happened, the expression on Mino's face darkened, and soon he cheered up to answer Zuo Si's question.
"Thomas and Teresa were captured by Gary, and Gary will hand over Thomas and Teresa to the Grim Beast."
Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, and asked in a puzzled way, "What do you mean by handing it over to the ghost fire beast?"
Mino briefly explained that Gary believed that Teresa and Thomas had caused the current situation, so they should be handed over to the Griever in exchange for peaceful coexistence in the future.
Zuo Si didn't understand the significance of Gary's doing these things at all, but what she knew was that Gary didn't like them from the very beginning.Now that the opportunity has been seized, it is natural to attack them.
"I gonna go see."
Zuo Si said, and before Mino and the others could react, they had already rushed out of the chamber and ran towards the entrance of the maze.
Seeing Zuo Si running out without looking back, Mino's face changed drastically. He didn't care about other things, and quickly chased him out. However, by the time he reached the entrance of the maze, the battle had come to an end.
When Zuo Si and the ghost fire beast were fighting before, Mino didn't have any intuitive feelings, but the time difference between the two of them coming out was only a few minutes, but when Mino arrived at the entrance of the maze, Zuo Si had already knocked down Gary, who was rushing over with a wooden stick, to the ground.
Gary was still dying, but Zuo Si's movements were clean and neat, and he slapped down.Gary fainted immediately.
There were many teenagers lying here and there on the ground, all of them were brought down by Zuo Si.
Mino looked at Zuo Si standing there in shock, and saw that she had already walked over and put Thomas off the shelf.
Thomas must have been knocked unconscious by Gary and the others. After Zuo Si put Thomas down, she strangled Thomas hard. She used so much force that almost all of Thomas's men had been strangled by Zuo Si. He screamed in pain, then woke up from the coma.
After Thomas woke up, Zuo Si got Teresa off another shelf. Just as Zuo Si was about to strangle Teresa awake, the awakened Thomas crawled and rolled to Zuo Si's side. , and snatched Teresa over.
"Zuo Si, don't do this, I'll wake Teresa up, I'll do it."
When Zuo Si woke him up just now, that kind of statement was really simple and rude. Thomas himself was rough and thick, but Teresa was a girl with delicate skin. If Zuo Si treated her so roughly, she would definitely suffer. no.
Seeing Thomas' actions, Zuo Si didn't feel anything else. She clapped her hands and stood up from the ground. It's just that her high fever had just receded, and Zuo Si's body couldn't stand it after all the tossing.
After she stood up, her body went limp, she staggered a few steps, and hit the side.
Mino rushed over and hugged Zuo Si in his arms. Zuo Si turned his head to look at Mino who was holding him, and smiled at him: "Thank you, Mino."
"Zuo Si, why don't you care about your own body at all, you just recovered from a high fever, if there is anything, we can deal with it together."
Mino didn't expect Zuo Si to fight so hard, but he thought that after Zuo Si put everyone down, he immediately went to put Thomas off the shelf.
When he was in the room just now, Zuo Si rushed out because he heard that Thomas had been taken away.
Thinking of some past events, Mino felt that Zuo Si was very special to Thomas.
Jealousy arose in his heart, but when he saw Zuo Si's pale face, the jealousy turned into deep distress. When he saw Thomas hugging Teresa like a treasure, Mino again Feel worthless for Zuo Si.
Thomas clearly knew about Zuo Si's illness, but now his attention was all on Teresa, but he didn't give Zuo Si any of it.
At this moment, other people finally arrived. When he saw those people lying on the ground in disorder, Newt opened his mouth wide. He subconsciously looked at Zuo Si who was held in Mino's arms.
Previously, he thought that he already had a general understanding of Zuo Si's combat power, but until now, Newt discovered that he had completely underestimated Zuo Si's combat power.
Before, he thought that these people might not be the opponents of Gary's group, but now it seems that Zuo Si alone can bring them all down.
