People who entered the slum other than the patrol guards and the town's citizens could only leave through the exit and the exit was so far away from the entrance.
The trapped monsters naturally could not leave even though they found the exit, but the unlucky intruders could still go through the exit to directly leave Acacia underwater town.
They could even leave without having to go through the mist wall that they had to go through before entering the range of this underwater town.
Ainsley and the others didn't know about this, so they rushed to the entrance of the slum, but to their surprise, no matter how hard they tried to pass through, it felt as if they bumped into some kind of solid wall!
They could not see the wall, but these experts immediately knew that they bumped into a barrier.
The group already knew about the slum from some fragments of clues, but they never expected that they could enter the slum yet could not leave the slum through the same path twice!
The group immediately broke into a cold sweat.
"What is this?! What's going on? How come we can't return now? Or maybe should we swim to the surface of the lake instead?"
The glasses man was already tired, so he panicked the most and couldn't help but ask his teammates.
This guy was a support-type ability user and he rarely used his water element ability as an offensive ability, so even if he was a famous expert in the field of support-type ability users..
He also felt a little bit of stress and panic when he was in this situation.
Mainly because, no matter how good the experts were, very little of them had experiences exploring underwater places.
And this glasses man was also quite young compared to many other contestants.
He was not even thirty years old yet and he was already hailed as one of geniuses in a decade.
This man didn't study at Elton academy when he was young, but he was the heir of a big elite family in a foreign east country, which was why he never entered Elton Academy.
The man didn't enter Elton Academy but used his youth to explore the world and he was no worse than many heirs and geniuses in the academy.
After all, not all geniuses wanted to live a disciplined and restricted life in school, so actually, many hidden experts in this world should never be underestimated.
The glasses man was already exhausted and he didn't have any shame or any other thoughts when asking his teammates about their current situation.
Since he was not the leader of their five-man team right now, he should let the leader, who was the mermaid, to guide their team to leave this place as soon as possible.
The mermaid girl was indeed calmer when she was underwater because the underwater places were so familiar to her who lived deep in the sea for so many years.
She might look like a young girl in her mid-twenty, but maybe, her real age has already reached 200 years old.
It's not impossible!
The mermaid looked at the invisible wall in front of her, racked her brain for a few seconds and compared the current situation with her own experiences before she got the final answer.
"Maybe there's some kind of mechanism that prevents us from leaving through the entrance."
"I think it will also be a waste of time if we want to swim up straight to the surface of the lake because there should be a barrier above us as well..."
So, what to do?
"There must be an exit in this slum and that's the only way out. If we can't get out, we have no choice but to use the group teleport, but unless we are forced to use it, let's not use it."
The others didn't refute the mermaid's hypothesis and they were just anxious to leave this strange place.
But because the group also knew that to find the exit in the slum, they would need to maintain the barrier for a longer time, so the mermaid and the sonic guy finally proposed to help.
"I'll use my water element ability to create several layers of water barrier. At least, the water barrier can keep monsters away for several seconds or trap monsters who want to approach our barrier."
Water element ability doesn't look like they can create a solid barrier, but high-level users can make the water barrier at least function like a jelly.
Those with better skills can even make a water barrier as good as any other barriers!
The mermaid was good at controlling water elements, so when she said that her water barrier was only auxiliary, she was really humble, unlike many Merfolk race members who were arrogant from birth and looked down on people from the land.
The sonic guy also had some tricks with his sound wave ability.
"My sound wave can also be used as a barrier. The sound wave can damage enemies' internal organs or simply bounce away any enemies who dare to approach."
Seeing that the other two people had already started to contribute to the team and even Ainsley had already created the inner barrier, the plant-tamer girl didn't want to be left behind.
"W-well, I have a special seed here that can be used as a barrier..."
The girl took out a seed from her bracelet and the seed actually looked like a glass bead.
Everyone had never seen such a seed, but they restrained their curiosity and waited for the next action.
Just what would this girl do?
