"The monster's body was very hard, and Angus's weapons couldn't hurt it at all. At this moment, several more monsters came to life. They flapped their wings, floated on the ground, and surrounded Angus. In the middle. Under the attack of the four monsters, Angus was seriously injured and fell to the ground soon. After losing the target, the four monsters flew back into the distance and turned into a statue, motionless. If Angus hadn't been covered in blood, none of us would have been able to believe what we saw."
"Later, Angus and Bob moved out of the tomb. Unfortunately, their injuries were too serious. Before we could carry them out of the forest, they... "
Bury took a deep breath and suppressed the sadness in his heart. Now is not the time to cry. Bury looked at Ryan and the other three and said seriously: "Now you know what you are about to encounter. Opponents, please think carefully, it’s not too late to quit now.”
Ryan, Alando and Dennis shook their heads together and backed down. This was not a man's choice. Only a coward would do this.
"This is it." Berry pointed to a damaged humanoid statue and said, "It is the key to opening the tomb. You see, as long as I remove this object and then turn the statue, the entrance can be opened."
Ryan looked around carefully and found that in this dilapidated ruins, only the area near where Bury was standing was very clean and flat, with almost no gravel or moss. He estimated that that was probably the entrance to the tomb.
Just as Ryan expected, Bury took out a palm-sized emblem from his body and installed it in a groove behind the statue. Then Mark, Bury, and Tedion turned the statue together.
Accompanied by the "creak, creak" sound made by the statue, the flat and clean ground began to crack, and the crack became larger and larger, until it was finally enough for a person to enter and exit.
"This is it." Berry wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Ryan and others: "But it's not suitable to enter right now. Let's let it ventilate first. We'll rest next to this cave tonight. , wait until tomorrow morning..."
"Magic Ryan, Pastor Dennis." Berry said to the two of them: "Please rest quietly tonight. Tomorrow, we will use your power."
Ryan and Dennis nodded. Tomorrow they will face those unknown monsters. Everyone suddenly felt nervous. Yes, tomorrow they will start the dangerous journey and face unknown monsters.
Daphne and Terdane were walking at the front. Although they had walked through this passage once before, no one knew if there were still unknown dangers hidden, so Daphne still moved forward cautiously while searching. Tedain was carrying a large burden and holding a torch in his hand. His job was to assist Daphne by providing her with lighting and related tools.
About ten meters behind them, Burry followed slowly with a bow and arrow in hand. Although Bury's face still looked very relaxed, he had already put an arrow on the longbow and opened it slightly. As soon as there was any movement, Berry would raise his bow and shoot a fatal blow immediately.
Ryan and Alando followed behind Bury. Ryan was empty-handed, while Alando held a torch to illuminate Ryan and Dennis who were walking next to him. Dennis has long given magic to every member of the team, with the power of a bull, the agility of a civet... to maximize his teammates' ability to respond to emergencies, which consumes a lot of Dennis' mana.
Mark walked at the end holding the last and third torch in the team. As a warrior, he should have been in the front and charged into the battle. However, due to the terrain here and the professional composition of the team, Berry specially arranged for him to stay behind to protect the safety of his teammates.
Ryan noticed that along the way, the passages he walked through were a little low, and the walls of the passages were also pitted. There was also a musty smell in the air. The torches flickered on and off, and sometimes even dimmed suddenly. It seemed like it would go out immediately. At this time, Berry would remind everyone to rest where they were and wait for the torch to burn vigorously again before moving forward.
Just walking like this for about two or three hours, Ryan suddenly noticed that the road under his feet began to become wet, and water droplets even seeped from the surrounding cave walls. On everyone's heads, there was a gurgling sound from time to time. the sound of. Berry said softly: "We have reached the depths of the cave. I guess there is an underground river or stream above our heads."
After walking for a while, Ryan found that he was walking higher and higher, and the entire passage gradually became dry. "Have we already walked out of the underground?" A thought appeared in Ryan's mind.
"Everyone, be careful!" Berry's warning voice echoed in the cave passage: "We are about to reach the last place."
Ryan immediately calmed down and was on full alert, while Dennis recited a long list of spells and blessed Ryan with a "sacred shield" magic to protect him from a sudden blow and loss of combat effectiveness. Ryan turned to Dennis and smiled, thanked him, and then continued to follow Berry.
Daphne and Tedion, who were walking in front, stopped. Daphne waved to Bury and whispered: "Captain, this is it!" Bury led everyone up and joined Daphne and the others.
After walking to Daphne's side, Ryan realized that he had walked out of the low and narrow passage and came to a relatively spacious cave. He looked up and found that the ceiling here was very high, about five meters or more. Various patterns are carved on the walls and floors.
Burry said: "This is a turning point. You see, there are four passages here. Except for the one we came in, there are three that lead to unknown places. Our map only drew this point and did not point out the next steps. How should we go down. Last time we chose a random path, and ended up encountering those monsters."
"What about us now?" Ryan asked, "Continue? Or change to another one?"
Bury said calmly: "I have thought about it for a long time, and I think it is better to take the original route. But we should mark it along the way. If it is really unreasonable, we can go back to the original route and take another route. What do you think?"
"You are the leader." Pastor Dennis said calmly.
Ryan also continued: "Just do as you say. I also want to see that kind of monster."
