The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

A whistle came from the front and there were bursts of explosions. Tonio was throwing a flaming sword to cover Jerry and the others retreating.

When the scout team and the forward team converged, they began to retreat back to meet the main force.

"Our luck is not good." The animal trainer named Xia Zuo, who was with Charles and the others, sighed, "I didn't expect to encounter a spider parade."

"What is that?" Charles asked as he took out his weapon from the storage ring.

Elizabeth has ordered the fighters to line up and prepare to resist the attack of the monsters.

At this time, Charles' role was revealed. He took out several bundles of spears and a pile of giant shields from the storage ring, and the sword and shield soldiers in the array suddenly turned into spearmen.

Xia Zuo told his saber-toothed tiger to guard the rear, and said: "The spiders in the labyrinth have a special place to lay their eggs, and every time a certain time comes, these spiders that are usually scattered all over the place will come together to lay eggs in that place. "

Soon, Elizabeth gave the order to retreat thirty meters.

In the narrow passage, it is quite troublesome to eliminate these spiders without collapsing the passage, and it is not worth fighting with these spiders who are almost as tall as Charles.

The passages in the labyrinth extend in all directions, so they just stepped back to a fork in the road to give way.

Elizabeth sent Arturia to lead Penelope and Galatia to the rear to ensure the safety of the retreat, and then the entire team steadily retreated while bombarding the action of the delayed spider swarm with magic.

Charles was suddenly picked up by Xia Zuo and placed on the Sabertooth Tiger's back.

"If there is an emergency, you can carry him and run out, don't worry about me." Xia Zuo said to it, touching his pet's head.

Sabertooth roared twice, then walked back with the others.

The accident that Xia Zuo was worried about did not happen. When the team retreated to the fork in the road to reorganize the defense line, first a few giant spiders collided with the defense line and bleed their blood, and then the other spiders turned a corner and left from the next intersection.

Charles was sitting on the saber-toothed tiger at this time, and he could finally see these surprisingly large spiders.

These spiders with dark red, dark green and gray-white patterns on their shells are more than one meter tall, and their entire bodies are about the size of a dining table.

On their backs, there are "packages" wrapped in white spider silk, and many "packages" are still wriggling slightly.

Dozens of these spiders turned around in front of the team and walked towards the fork, just like the passengers in the train station carrying large and small bags from the exit.

It is not difficult to deal with a single spider. As long as you are vigilant at all times and don't jump down from the top of the passage and attack, an average three-person adventurer team can deal with one or two.

But when they advance in groups, they can be a force sweeping the passage.

After a while, all the spiders who were carrying large and small bags back to their hometown to give birth to children all passed through the team.

At this time, Charles noticed that Halkara frowned on the side, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"The venom of this spider is not easy to deal with." Halcala went to Elizabeth to report the matter. According to her, the venom of these spiders can make people quickly fall into a deep coma. Be careful of those evil gods. Devotees use this venom to coat weapons.

After this period of time, there were a lot less monsters left. Because along the way is the same as the migration path of the spiders just now, the monsters on the road either escaped or the spiders were packed and taken away.

After a long time and a few turns, other monsters finally appeared.

A few flaming lizards over one meter long were easily cleaned up by Jerry and the others. An unknown canine monster lying in ambush at the fork beside the passage was bitten to death by two outpost wolves, and then the two wolves killed the monster together. The tattered corpse was dragged out.

During the period, the saber-toothed tiger carrying Charles roared a few times, and then Xia Zuo stood there and listened for a while, and the next moment, a flying knife wrapped in lightning was thrown by him.

"It's just a snake following us," he said indifferently.

Arturia and Junia gave him a thumbs up.

The road in the labyrinth is not easy to walk. It is constantly ups and downs, left and right, and some low-lying places have water that can cover the knees. Some places are even deep quagmire, and only slimes and snakes, such as monsters with low pressure on the ground, can pass through it.

Those mazes in games and comics with clean floors do not exist. Don't forget, the monsters will urinate everywhere.

At this time, Horatio's role came into play. Whenever he encountered these difficult places, he would use ice spells or magic like turning mud into stone to solidify the ground.

By the way, some sneak attackers lurking in the mud were also finished.

It was a relaxing and pleasant thing to follow a group of tuba to the Novice Village.

In the underground labyrinth, without the sunrise and sunset, it is difficult for people to make accurate judgments on the passage of time.

Fortunately, Arturia has a mechanical watch in her hand. God knows which traveler brought it and was captured by the demons. Finally, as the prize for the advanced worker of the year, it fell into her hand. After strengthening it with magic, it passed. It can still be used for hundreds of years, so that everyone knows what time it is now.

Charles saw that the time displayed on this Casio watch was more than five o'clock. It’s just that the daily time of the two worlds is slightly different. Arturia adjusted it to twelve o’clock when she entered the maze, so they can only know that they have advanced more than five hours in earth time in the maze now. .

It is said that this place is very close to today's destination, and it will be about an hour's walk.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound in front of the passage. Jerry and Horatio kept running back. From time to time, Tonio threw magic behind him and exploded a burst of flames.

"Fire magic preparation!" Horatio shouted loudly, "It's a swarm!"

I saw under the lights, palm-sized mosquitoes flew over from the front like dark clouds.

Under the command of Elizabeth in front, a wall of fire blocked the entire passage. Then the wall of fire moved forward under the control of the mages, and the mosquitoes that had no time to escape were scorched and fell down, and the smell of the scorched giant mosquitoes permeated the passage.

At this time, Xia Zuo said to Artoria: "This smell will summon slimes~www.wuxiaspot.com~ We have to prepare."

Sure enough, his saber-toothed tiger quickly roared at the place where there was no light behind.

But what came was not a slime, but a monster like a jackal with blood-red eyes.

"Kill it!" Xia Zuo hurriedly shouted, throwing a dagger at it at the same time.

Charles immediately aimed the light beam from the searchlight on the helmet at the jackal's eyes, and turned the brightness to the maximum level.

The jackal subconsciously dodged Xia Zuo's dagger, but was dizzy by the strong light.

Junia's empty right hand threw a fist forward, and a fist composed of white light slammed into the jackal.

This time, when the jackal was about to jump and dodge again, an invisible hand seemed to suddenly appear in the air and grabbed its front legs, causing it to stop for a while, and it failed to jump into the air.

With a "squeak", the jackal was beaten into a cake by the fist of the white light.

"Nice mage hand." Junia praised Charles.

Charles smiled embarrassedly. He often used the "Hand of the Mage", a magic purely composed of mental power, to exercise his mental power.

"It's the enemy's animal trainer." Xia Zuo said worriedly, "I think we have been discovered."

Elizabeth came over at this time, and he explained to Elizabeth, "The jackal and his trainer just now figured it out. I think the enemies have seen us."
