As the adventure team from Dafei City approached the ancient city, a crimson light suddenly shone in the eyes of the petrified snake-men soldiers.

Their limbs moved awkwardly, like a group of old and dilapidated magical puppets. Their spears formed a square formation, carrying a silent pressure, and pierced towards the adventure team of Dafei City!

"Trash, get out of here!"

The bald, heavily armored warrior, wielding a tower shield, charged forward.

Bang!

With a loud bang, blood gushed from the bald man's mouth, and he was sent flying back more than ten meters.

However, a gap was also opened in the snake-man formation.

The mages unleashed their ultimate attacks, and the thunder dragon roared forth, its power amplified by the blessing of [Thunderstorm], instantly annihilating more than twenty snake-men.

The captain smirked, glanced at the stunned crowd behind him, and laughed loudly, "The important task of seizing the treasure from the demons will be handed over to our Dafei City. I'll be going now, hahahaha!"

The torrential rain poured down, but it couldn't drown out the arrogant laughter.

The adventurers from Dafei City passed through the snake-men soldiers and entered the ancient city.

The expressions on everyone's faces varied; some were helpless, while others were angry.

The leader of the Mi De Guild in Xuanfeng City was so angry that he cursed, "The demons are not to be trifled with. Fighting them one-on-one will only lead to their downfall sooner or later!"

Immediately, Midd took a deep breath and turned to look at everyone. His eyes lit up when he glanced at Linda: "Captain Linda, so you're here too! Please use your healing spells and shields to protect everyone!"

Middell's [Blue Ocean] team was in the middle tier among the many trial teams, lacking the confidence to fight the snake-men soldiers alone. However, with Linda's shield, they were able to enter the city smoothly.

Unexpectedly, Linda gently shook her head.

"No, I'll take my leave first."

Whoosh!

Linda cast the Azure Shield on herself and Anna, and led the other team members towards the ancient city!

"Sigh! Why won't you listen to my advice?" Mi De was repeatedly rebuffed and his face turned red.

Just as he was about to mock Linda for overestimating himself, he suddenly saw the Phoenix Tail Flower break through the snake-man formation like a torrent, and under a sword light formed from black flames, the snake-man soldiers seemed to turn into tofu and melt instantly.

In less than ten seconds, Luanweihua cut through the snake-men soldiers and entered the city!

Everyone's expression changed drastically.

Isn't the Phoenix Flower supposed to be so strong that it can't even cross a single mountain? How come this is?

The aura emanating from Linda and her group was clearly that of seasoned sunrise-level experts.

Without Dafei City and Luanwei Flower, the remaining adventure team was roughly equal in strength. Unable to find a strong partner to join forces with, Midd scratched his head in frustration, saying, "The rest of us have to team up; not everyone is like them."

"Hmph, we, the Bear Roar, will also be leaving first!"

Xiongji grinned maliciously, displaying a terrifying battle aura of level 48!

The bear-headed man leaped past, his large paws slapping towards the snake-man soldier.

The outer layer of stone armor shattered instantly, revealing the decaying corpse inside.

The mages unleashed a barrage of meteor showers, bombarding everything in their path!

In less than 20 seconds, Xionghou broke through the blockade and successfully entered the city.

"Follow them and charge!"

Midd panicked, feeling that the treasure would be stolen, and led his men out.

"Kill them!"

"Quick, let's follow!"

"Fuck, I should have recruited more heavily armored warriors!"

Adventure teams flocked to the ancient city.

But soon, they discovered in despair that the formation of the petrified snake-men soldiers was incredibly tough.

Whether it was the people from Dafei City, or Linda and Xiongji, they didn't exert much effort to open up the breach.

This led Midd and his group to mistakenly believe that they could do the same.

When they finally arrived at the city gate and faced the array of snake-man soldiers, their hearts sank.

More and more snake-men gathered, and spear formations attacked from all directions.

Such a dense attack is too much for even heavily armored warriors to handle!

The man in the front row, exhausted, was pierced by a spear, his shattered internal organs hanging from the bright red spearhead.

The sorcerer and healer were powerless to resist and became lambs to the slaughter.

"Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"

"Help me! Help me!"

"Disgusting snake-man, get out of here!"

The screams went from loud to quiet in just five minutes.

At the east gate of the ancient city, there were more than fifty more corpses of adventurers.

Only three teams were able to pass through the snake-man soldier formation and enter the interior.

The first trial in the ancient city of Avis taught the adventurers a harsh lesson.

The situation at the south gate was much the same, and four adventure teams entered.

The Northwest Gate 2, which was occupied by the Demon Clan, had a total of eight branches.

To be honest, it's the one that gets in the fastest and performs the most effortlessly.

She was undoubtedly a woman wearing a pure white mask and a black robe.

The demon race acknowledges them as the strongest adventure team among those participating in the trials.

A masquerade ball!

Linda and her group passed through the snake-man soldiers' formation and entered the ancient city.

Inside was a spacious hall, entirely constructed of blue stone blocks, with moss-covered walls and flowing water on the floor.

The sounds of thunder and rain outside gradually faded away, but the humidity in the air was twice as high. Linda felt sticky all over, as if she had been licked by a water-type slime.

"Captain, which way do we go?" Anna looked ahead, puzzled. "There are so many entrances."

Before them lay a series of dark tunnels, like the gaping maws of wild beasts, with no one knowing where they led.

Perhaps the Yavis Badge will come in handy; it's what guides you to unlock the ancient city.

Linda had an idea and took out the badge from the ring.

Just as expected, the badge emitted a bright light, forming a straight beam of light that pointed to the passageway on the left.

"That's it, let's go!"

The passageway meandered like a snake, narrow and cramped, with formations inside that prohibited flight. Linda and her companions cautiously made their way forward in the dark, as if walking on thin ice, while also being wary of traps.
