The archaeological team members had come up one after another. They turned to see that Huo Yao and Min Yu were only halfway through, so they quickly helped to pull the chain taut.
At this moment, the underground palace suddenly shook violently causing rocks to fall from overhead. It was hard for them to stand up straight, let alone help anyone.
"Oh no. It's going to collapse."
Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi gritted their teeth and secured the chain as hard as they could.
Even when broken stones started falling on them, they ignored the debris and kept going.
Under the suspension bridge, Huo Yao could see the clear quiet lake moving due to rising cog mechanisms.
The chains were only slightly over ten centimeters away from reaching the mercury lake. At most, Huo Yao and Min Yu had one minute to get to the other side.
Huo Yao inhaled deeply and sped up.
If nothing went wrong, one minute was enough for them to escape.
