At this moment, Lin Xi was growing impatient. She had already sprung the mechanism, and the floor had opened, but as they peered into the seemingly bottomless black hole and called out several times, there was no response.
Panic started to set in for Lin Xi: "What should we do? Could Gu Fan and the others be in danger?"
Everyone shook their heads, not knowing the situation below. They speculated that the prospects of Gu Fan, Du Jun, Lu Yi, and Xu Haowen surviving were slim.
Ouyang Jin took a rope out of her bag, borrowed a few more ropes from others, tied them together, and flung it into the hole, hoping Gu Fan and his company would see it and climb up.
However, after a long period of silence, there was still no response. Was the tunnel simply too deep, or had Gu Fan and the others not noticed? Or had something worse happened?
