“Lephia, you… Stay here and join the Goblin Troops. Assault operations and encounter battles are not friendly to you defender wizards, and it is not in the interests of the team to draw out combat power to protect the wizards without understanding the situation. It
wasn’t enough for Burt to play blackface alone, and Flohn had to play it himself.
“What, what! You, you hate me?
“…” The
girl looked at Flohn with an incredulous face, never expecting him to say this.
“Lephia, don’t be willful this time. Stay here and support us, and this [White Witch] is right, I also have a bad feeling.
“…”
Even the object of longing said so, Lephia looked at the goblin troops such as Riveria and Alicia who were looking at their lives, and finally pulled down her ears in discouragement, and her mood was very low.
Although he was a little shaken by the girl’s pitiful expression, in the end, Flohn gritted his teeth and made a fierce decision.
Especially in front of Phil Weis, he didn’t want to add extra surprises.
…………
…………
The team is led by the first-level adventurers, and the second-level adventurers start exploring.
Standing in the front were the two humanoid tanks of Grace and Thione, and as the two stepped into the secret passage, everyone stepped on the stone slab and carefully advanced.
Soon, in the eyes of Riveria and the others, who were waiting outside, everyone was lost.
“Tread, tread, tread.”
Heavy boots and equipment collided with the stone slab repeatedly, and as the team progressed, they gradually found some eyebrows.
“I said, although this is an old nest built by the enemy, how do I feel… It feels like an underground labyrinth?
Flohn glanced at Tiona, who was speaking.
She has a very naïve personality, but she always has super intuition in this kind of thing.
After thinking about it, Flohn explained:
“In the ancient documents in the library, I have seen the introduction of castle architecture, ancient people built castles to guard against enemy attacks, such buildings often involve extremely difficult structures to invade, and even large castle structures are more complex, with countless traps to make enemies tremble.”
The passage is wide, and there is a sense of déjà vu of shuttling through the labyrinth of the basement.
Even with Grace’s physique, it can fit the width of five people by advancing side by side at the same time.
However, although it looks like a dungeon, it is different after all.
The floor, walls, and ceiling of the passage are not as varied as the dungeon, but are flat, meticulously carved, and uniformly constructed.
Coupled with the cracks on the surface of the stone masonry due to the baptism of time, it can be imagined that this is definitely the hand of the craftsmen of the past, rather than a natural formation.
“Hold the grass! What is this!
Raul, who was at the front of the line, suddenly exclaimed, startling everyone.
The light of the portable magic stone lamp soon shone through, and everyone could see the body that frightened Raul.
It is an anthropomorphic statue, as if the demon of a fairy tale legend stands on both sides of the passage.
Originally alerted by Raul’s exclamation, after seeing what it was, Angie helplessly rolled her eyes cutely.
“I said you, Raul. Can’t you just learn from Mr. Flohn and Mr. Cruz? The boss is not small, as an adventurer’s basic emotional control, where have you lost.
“Hug, sorry, Angie, I’m really a little nervous.”
Seeing Raul being reprimanded again, everyone smiled.
Because of this incident, the originally tense atmosphere relaxed a little, and the whole team continued to move forward.
After a while, what appeared in front of the team was a sudden fork.
Two, four, six, eight, countless intersections make the members of the Loki clan embarrassed.
But under the firm will of the people, they did not fear and confusion, but quickly broke through these differences.
As long as the ranks are not scattered, then with their combat effectiveness, any enemy can cope.
This is also Finn’s confidence.
Every time this happens, Finn sends scouts to explore the way quickly, and if it’s a dead end, choose another one.
As there were more and more forks in the road, the team’s advance slowed down.
And the secret passage has also changed significantly from the entrance section, that is… There are more and more of that kind of artistic sculptures.
Not only demons, but also all kinds of monsters, and even plant-like reliefs began to appear on the walls.
Just at a glance, you can’t help but think of those new species and man-eating flowers…
Chapter
286
– In the dim environment, the cyan dim magic stone lamp embedded in the wall illuminated the nervous side faces of the adventurers.
The slender shadows that passed by kept shaking on the wall, coupled with the eerie and humid smell and a trace of decay, which made everyone involuntarily tighten their heartstrings.
“Step, step, step-”
The sound of footsteps next to everyone’s eardrums was rendered unreassuring, gradually… Oppression strikes from all directions.
“Flohn, here… Makes me awkward.
Ace vigilantly put her right hand on the hilt of the sword of love, and whispered to Flohn on her side.
“Ah, yes. It’s more eerie than the dungeon. Even though the dungeon is dangerous, it is alive and has a sense of vitality that is similar to biological instincts.
“And here…”
Glancing at the statue’s eyes, the dandelion-like petals that didn’t look together, Florn ~ smiled strangely.
“Here, here is a completely inorganic existence, plus in the underground environment, he is destined to be cold and lifeless.”
…………
…………
“Yo, did that meaningful look and weird smile just now discover our surveillance system? What can I do about this, my dear little Barka?
In a huge room of equal length and width, something resembling a huge console in the center is fixed here, and the gloomy-looking and lifeless man Baka is manipulating the effects projected by plant spores, monitoring the every move of Loki’s family.
And when Flohn’s eyes seemed to pass through space and look at each other here, I don’t know how many hooded robed people were frightened.
“He, he, he… He is the [Flame Demon]! It’s that abominable flame demon! The
rout of the 24th layer, the culprit who slaughtered them one-sidedly was so clearly in front of the [Dark Faction] group.
It’s just that as soon as Flohn’s handsome face appeared, it almost scared their guts!
“Okay, okay, don’t be nervous. Although this kid is indeed very strong, but now we have an absolute advantage geographically, yes, Baka.
The
mysterious gloomy man remained silent, ignoring the god Thanatos.
“Guys, the stage has been set up, let’s wait for the protagonist to appear!”
Saying that, Thanatos smiled.
……
……
“I still explore this kind of maze without a map, and I always feel apprehensive.”
Diona slowed down a little and chatted with Floren.
In the entire team, everyone tensed their faces and kept spreading the tense atmosphere, except for Flohn.
His eyes seem to have the power to calm people’s hearts, as long as you look at him, your heart will involuntarily calm down.
“An environment like this underground passage, secret passage, and cave, as long as you understand a little, you will never fall into it, that is, feel the flow of wind.”
With a glance at Ace, Florn smiled.
“Of course, try to avoid exploring without a map. This time…… Just an accident.
“Flohn is right, but I will add.”
The whole group suddenly stopped, and seeing Finn take two steps, he said:
“There is nothing wrong with following the direction of the wind. But where there is wind, it is often not easy to walk.
Like everyone else, Finn looked at the two doors left and right.
Except for the entrance to the passage where they entered, the luxurious gate made of Oliha steel was closed in both directions on the left and right.
“Is the way forward limited?”
“Ah, every fork in the road may be the route arranged by the enemy for us, in other words…”
“We were lured.”
“Then, what is the purpose of the enemy in luring us here?”
At this fork in the road, there are no superfluous things such as statues, and the floor, walls and ceilings are all neat and smooth.
“Ha, even if we are blocked here, we have other options, such as…”
“Boom-”
Grace slammed his fist on the wall, a reckless move that startled everyone.
“Sure enough, in addition to the magic stone, there are also super hard metals.”
“In the team, except me and Flohn, I’m afraid no one can break through.”
“No way, there are stairs ahead, is this familiar feeling really a dungeon?”
“Is there still a maze of this size downstairs? That’s really interesting. The
team moved on, and then… Another fork in the road.
Unlike before, this fork in the road, neither road is a dead end.
“What to do, Finn?”
The leader of the little Terrans held his spear and took a closer look at his surroundings.
Unlike the previous level, the secret passage can now only provide the width of three dwarves advancing side by side.
Such a narrow terrain is completely similar to the environment of the “upper” level of the dungeon, if it is a small number of people in the squad, it is okay, with the size of their current team, it is impossible to expand the formation at all, and even everyone can not spread out in the battle.
So Finn made a decision at the moment.
“Let’s divide the army into two ways, I and Florn all the way, Bert go to the right, and you go to the left.”
The lower members were also divided into two teams according to the same proportion of the first echelon.
….. 0 …….
Of course, Thiony and Ace were quite unhappy, but one was arguing loudly, and the other was pouting cutely to express dissatisfaction.
“That’s your favor over there, Grace.”
“Leave it to the old man!”
……
……
Time passed slowly.
Some time has passed since the team was divided into two teams.
As they went deeper and deeper, even Raul, Angie and the others could detect that their position was declining.
There is a distance of about 100 meters from the ground, which is certain.
Not only that, as the number of layers dropped, the obvious odor could already be clearly smelled even by humans.
“The smell of cannibal flowers everywhere, but… We searched for so long that we didn’t even encounter a single figure or monster.
Finn was silent, but his narrowed eyes indicated that the other person’s brain was thinking at high speed.
