Godly Empress Doctor Chapters 2601-2800

Chapter 2733

Things were quite noisy when Feng Wu reached the formation core. 

Shao Xiao and the others had waited and waited. They felt uneasy and looked forward to seeing Feng Wu. They didn't have any provisions with them because they had been in Thousand Night Forest. There were magical beasts everywhere in the forest, and they could roast meat over a fire. There was no need to bring their own food.

However... They had never expected to end up in this Secret Essence Mine. By then, they hadn't eaten for days and were starving.

"Do you have any food on you?" Ling Hao asked.

All the other team members shook their heads, smiling bitterly. They missed the roast chicken which they had carelessly thrown away in the outside world.

They were surrounded by dead Spirit Stone Worms, but no one could bring themselves to eat those things. They could only stay in the circle, and didn't dare venture out. They waited and waited. They thought Feng Wu would come back when they finally saw Ye Hongxue and the others.

After that came more waiting. But Feng Wu was still nowhere to be seen. They were patient at first, but gradually, they became anxious.

"Do you think something happened to Feng Wu?" Huo Shan paled. He alone knew how well-connected Feng Wu was. The crown prince cared for her! "We shouldn't just wait here. Let's go out and look for her!"

Apart from Shan Jingfei and Ye Han, everyone else went out to look for Feng Wu.

However, as soon as they stepped out of the formation core, they were surrounded by Spirit Stone Worms. There were so many worms that the tunnels were packed. They had never seen so many worms before.

"God... Have all the worms in the mine gathered here?"

"They're moving closer..."

"We're their targets!"

"Oh, no! We should go back!"

Shao Xiao led the others back to the circle. It was big enough for four people to stand inside, but there were over ten people now, and the circle was too small.

"Everybody, get in!" Shao Xiao shouted, "This is a protective circle. The worms won't attack us when we're inside. Get in!" Feng Wu's team had survived waves of attacks by hiding in the circle, and they jumped back in without hesitation.

Ye Hongxue and her team had spent time in Peace Grassland and were used to following orders, so they jumped into the circle as well.

Shan Jingfei didn't like the idea at all. She found the circle too small. It would never fit all of them.

"You're counting on this thing to stop the worms. I don't buy it." Ye Han shook her head.

Apart from Ye Han, Xin Zhixuan and Shan Jingfei, everyone else went inside the circle. The circle couldn't take more people either. 

The worms attacked again. Boom! That was going to be their last attack. The original worm king was dead, and the worms would compete among themselves until they had a new leader.

While the students were trapped in the Secret Essence Mine, the academy was informed of what had happened. Only a handful of students had fallen into the Secret Essence Mine, while most people were lucky enough to remain on the surface.

The tutors came to their rescue and brought them back to the school. The school realized something wasn't right when they counted the number of students.
