"Drip-drip!"
"Drip-drip!"
There were no lights in the underground tunnel.
It was pitch-black, one could barely see their hands before them, and even Chen Li could only vaguely make out objects within a six to seven-meter distance.
The occasional drip of water falling from above echoed distinctly in the silent darkness.
Chen Li secretly pressed his foot against the ground, the sandy texture beneath providing him with a slight comfort.
It was fortunate that a layer of sand and stone about an inch thick covered the ground of the tunnel; otherwise, the wet and slippery mud would have made it impossible to run when the time came.
Chen Li closed his eyes and waited quietly, straining his ears for any sound from outside.
If it were the demon beast of winter coming, he would not be so worried, but this time it was the snake demon. If it really sniffed its way here, the tunnel would prove practically useless, offering no obstruction at all.
