Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 340 Finding an Exit

The reason Xu Yao wanted to leave at this time was because he had just used his system to search for the exit of the formation.

Fortunately, my system was indeed capable, and under these circumstances, I was able to find the way out I needed.

Xu Yao quickly followed the exit the system had found.

For Xu Yao, the same applies to this matter; if a way out can be found, that would naturally be the best outcome.

But if they can't find it, then everyone will die here, which is not what Xu Yao wants to see.

That's why Xu Yaocai had no choice but to use the system to help himself.

Soon, Xu Yao put the matter aside and headed straight ahead.

Along the way, Xu Yao dodged several attacks from insects.

Fortunately, Xu Yao was truly formidable. Although these insects were cunning, none of them were as powerful as Xu Yao.

After the enemy was almost wiped out, Xu Yao finally followed the system's instructions.

The exit of this formation has been found.

Upon seeing the exit of the formation, Xu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Finding the exit meant he could survive.

That's the most important thing.

At this moment, Xu Yao was so preoccupied with this matter that he didn't care about anything else and just hurried back to find everyone.

On the way back, they saw Han Yi eliminating some invading insects, his flamethrower spraying out a lot of fire.

Seeing this, Xu Yao quickly came over and carried Lin Qian on his back, and then had Da Wu help Ming Yun Ya.

Then, Xu Yao said to Han Yi, "Han Yi, walk back as you go. I've found the exit. Walk slowly."

"Don't let these bugs catch up with us," Xu Yao said.

Han Yi nodded: "You go ahead, I'll cover your retreat."

And so, Han Yi retreated while burning the insects with flames, while Xu Yao led the others toward the exit.

Finally, after some twists and turns, the group reached the exit of the formation.

With Xu Yao's help, everyone left the place directly.

After everyone walked out of the exit, the swarms of insects that had been densely packed all hid inside the cave and did not come out.

These insects seem to be quite wary of the outside world.

Xu Yao did this to prevent Han Yi and the others from asking about his flamethrower and to keep it a secret from others.

So he deliberately took the flamethrower and then activated the self-destruct device.

Then it was thrown directly into the swarm of insects, and then a burst of flames came, turning the flamethrower into ashes.

Han Yi then said, "This thing you invented is very useful. If everyone in our Assassin's Guild had one, it would be great."

"Wouldn't that mean...?"

"Come on, Master Han, I can't possibly make a second one of these," Xu Yao said with a chuckle.

"Why? Didn't you figure this out yourself?" Han Yi asked curiously.

Xu Yao deliberately said, "This flamethrower is easy to make, it's not difficult at all, but you need to know how the flame inside the flamethrower comes out!"

"Do you know?" Xu Yao said deliberately.

"I really don't know. Is there some kind of spirit stone or treasure inside?" Han Yi asked.

Xu Yao was taking advantage of Han Yi's ignorance of what a flamethrower was, so he deliberately said, "Actually, this thing is really quite powerful."

"It's just that you don't know the truth."

"Let me tell you, there's something called a flamethrower inside that flamethrower. This flamethrower comes from volcanoes in the Western Regions."

"Only one in five hundred years is truly priceless. Even if I wanted to create one..."

"I can't find this thing either. If this fire stone is used to forge weapons, it can utilize fire-attribute abilities."

"If used to forge armor, it can protect against heat and cold," Xu Yao said.

"How could I possibly manufacture something this good? You saw it just now."

"It's completely ruined, gone forever. That Flame Stone was my only one, and today it's all gone."

"I'm losing money hand over fist," Xu Yao said.

Xu Yao hadn't originally intended to let Han Yixin have him; he just wanted to get by.

However, to his surprise, this matter also left Han Yi completely bewildered.

Han Yi said with some surprise, "I've heard for a long time that there are many ferocious beasts and treasures in the Western Regions."

"But I never expected there to be such a divine object. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely go and see it."

Xu Yao then said, "Now is not the time to talk about these things. Let's go and check on Lin Qian's injuries first."

At this moment, Xu Yao went directly to Lin Qian.

Seeing that Lin Qian was feeling better, Xu Yaocai asked, "Senior Lin, what's going on with these insects?"

"Although we have successfully driven these insects back, it is still not safe."

"Why is this happening? And how can we stabilize these five array points? This cave is still not safe," Xu Yao said.

Lin Qian then said, "Actually, there were six of us back then. My other five companions were trapped in this cave."

"It was these insects that caused our tragic deaths, which is why I've been imprisoned here for so many years."

"It's because of these annoying insects and these array points, which need to be activated simultaneously."

"Then we need to stabilize the situation, but right now the cave is shaking violently."

"I'm afraid that once we destroy these key points of the formation, the formation that's stabilizing this cave won't be able to hold out any longer," Li Qian said.

Xu Yao nodded in agreement: "You're right. If that's the case, then it seems there's no way to resolve this matter now."

"Alright, you guys rest here while I see if there's anything I can do," Xu Yao said.

Hearing Xu Yao say this, the group felt relieved.

Regardless, Xu Yao's strength is undeniable, and facing such strength naturally gives people a sense of security.

However, the more serious issue is that everyone seems to be in low spirits right now, and we don't know when those vanished insects will reappear.

Xu Yao then opened his own system and scanned it again.

Finally, we received information from the system that five people were needed to stabilize the five key points of the formation simultaneously.

Only by securing these five key points can we ensure safety here. If we don't stabilize these five key points, the way out will not only remain closed.

Even this existing cave cannot be preserved; the group will likely be buried here.

This is the most serious thing.
