BXBX NOVEL Chapter 622 The Escape Plan
At first, they were all lifeless, and no matter how Shen Bing shouted, they remained silent. After being imprisoned for so long, they had become numb and hopeless, believing they would never escape and might be killed by the demon, Bernard.
At this point, death seemed like a release to them.
However, when they saw Shen Bing successfully pick the lock, hope immediately ignited within them.
Shen Bing could pick locks, which meant she could save them!
As long as they could escape, they would have a brighter future ahead.
With newfound hope, they all began to frantically cry for help, hoping that Shen Bing could rescue them too.
Shen Bing was astonished, looking at these young girls, her mouth gaping wide.
The cages were in darkness, and initially, she couldn\'t see what was in the other cages.
Now, so many women had come out and were seeking her help.
The scene was incredibly shocking and daunting!
Who would have thought that the dignified and accomplished Bernard was secretly such a person? He had not only killed so many people but also imprisoned countless women here.
This man was simply a demon!
Seeing their pitiful appearance, Shen Bing\'s sympathy surged, and she loudly said, "Calm down!"
With her words, everyone present quieted down.
Shen Bing now displayed a leader\'s demeanor, her expression composed as she continued, "I can help you, but we can\'t rush things. We have to take it one step at a time."
"First, tell me how to avoid these man-eating fish and get safely to the shore."
If she could not make it to the shore safely, how could she save anyone?
She might end up being devoured herself!
"That\'s easy, don\'t you have food?" The old man, thrilled that Shen Bing agreed to help, said, "Bernard intentionally left us with food containing a mild tranquilizer. Once we eat it, we\'ll quickly fall into a deep sleep, completely powerless."
"So, all you need to do is pour the bread and water down into the blood pool. The man-eating fish will eat it, and within three minutes, they\'ll all pass out."
"By that time, even if you jump in, the fish won\'t bite you."
Shen Bing was overjoyed to hear this and immediately followed the old man\'s advice. She poured out all the water and crushed all the food, throwing it into the blood pool.
Swoosh!
After the food was thrown in, thousands of man-eating fish in the red pool immediately swarmed and frantically fought over the food.
In less than ten seconds, all the food was gone.
The sight of the numerous man-eating fish made Shen Bing break out in a cold sweat.
With so many man-eating fish, if she had jumped in just now, she would have been devoured to nothing.
"This is not enough. Listen, everyone, if you want to escape, pour all your food and water into the blood pool!" The old man shouted.
Swoosh!
Following the old man\'s words, all the women in the hundreds of cages immediately understood and poured their food and water into the blood pool.
As the food entered, the man-eating fish became even more excited, swarming and fighting for the food.
In less than ten seconds, all the food was gone.
"Miss, the countdown has begun. After three minutes, the fish will be unconscious. However, for safety, you should wait for five minutes before jumping in," the old man advised.
One, two, three, four...
Shen Bing counted in her heart and waited for five minutes before she clenched her teeth, pinched her nose, and jumped into the blood pool.
Splash!
The blood pool wasn\'t very deep, only about one meter and eighty centimeters. Shen Bing quickly touched the bottom and felt the mass of man-eating fish brushing against her body.
The slippery bodies of the fish startled her, and her heart nearly jumped out of her chest.
But she was a CEO who had experienced many things, so she remained composed. She surfaced, using her hands and feet to swim towards the edge of the blood pool.
About three minutes later, she finally reached the shore, climbed out, and found herself covered in the sticky, red liquid. She felt disgusted by the substance, which not only felt slimy but also had an extremely foul smell, making her want to retch.
At the same time, she was ecstatic.
Regardless, she had managed to escape the cage, and now she only needed to figure out how to leave this underground cave.
"Miss, you promised to save us, so please save us quickly," the old man urgently shouted.
"Yes, yes, sister, please save us."
"Beautiful sister, please, save us."
"I\'m kowtowing to you, please save me."
The women in the other cages also pleaded, their expressions filled with excitement.
Shen Bing looked at the cages that were hanging in mid-air and felt conflicted.
The cages were too high; even with the key, she could not fly up to unlock them.
The old man quickly noticed Shen Bing\'s dilemma and concern and said, "Miss, you do not need to climb up to unlock them. Go to the southwest and find a small room with remote control devices."
"You can use the devices to release all of us."
"Southwest?"
Without a second thought, Shen Bing checked the direction and immediately ran toward the southwest.
Rescuing the women was the priority!
She did not even care about wiping off the sticky liquid on her body.
Soon, she found the small room with a bed and several devices similar to elevators.
Click, click, click!
Shen Bing tried to operate the controls, and soon, the iron chains above one of the cages began to descend, lowering the cage.
She was overjoyed and immediately activated all the switches.
Click, click, click!
The underground cave echoed with the sound of machinery starting, and many cages descended into the blood pool.
The old man\'s cage sank halfway into the pool.
His expression changed drastically as he hurriedly shouted, "Stop, do not let me sink!"
If all the cages sank, and he, being less than 1.8 meters tall, would drown.
Seeing this scene, Shen Bing was also taken aback. She rushed back into the small room and opened many switches, finally making all the iron chains float on the water\'s surface.
As Shen Bing was about to use her homemade key to open the door, her gaze fell on an object on the control console, and her eyes brightened.
