Chapter 459: The Fisherman Gains Benefit

Chapter 459 The Fisherman Gains Benefit

Suddenly attacked, everyone dodged and tried to fight back. However, most of the attacks were directly absorbed by the black magic tentacles, and only a few high-level attacks had some effect on the tentacles.

Caught off guard, several resistance fighters were sucked into the tentacles and then turned into dry black dust while wailing.

However, the three ninth-level warriors reacted immediately, and the power of their domain expanded, temporarily blocking those magical tentacles outside.

At the same time, under the full-force attack of the three people, the large barrier in the center made a sound of being overwhelmed, suddenly collapsed, and dissipated into a dark red mist.

The moment the barrier was broken, the surrounding tentacles all paused, and then turned into dark magical mist and dissipated.

"Successful?"

Seeing this scene, many people breathed a sigh of relief and showed a look of relief, thinking that the three ninth-level crowns had resolved the danger of the ruins.

"Wait, where's the stuff?"

However, at this moment, noticing the disappearance of the corpse in the hall, another ninth-level cultivator with red hair and golden eyes, with blue-purple lightning all over his body, suddenly spoke.

He was Yuexi Kingdom's veteran ninth-rank protector, [Heart of Thunder] Dubit. Among the three ninth-rank masters present, he was the strongest one.

At this time, Dubit looked at everyone present with some suspicion. After his gaze stayed on the other two ninth-level people for a moment, he swept his gaze to the others below the ninth level.

"Or, was it taken advantage of by one of these ants?"

Hearing his words, Lanton's heartbeat almost immediately accelerated. Thanks to the help of Dark Crow, he was able to barely maintain the expression on his face.

Fortunately, due to the special environment of the ruins, all the energy was almost covered by the chaotic atmosphere of the ruins itself. Therefore, Dubit did not feel his abnormality.

"You should be able to see that we just woke up at the same time, and you even woke up a little earlier than me. As for our subordinates, they were able to return to normal only after our rescue."

Frowning, Leo glanced at him, also feeling a little strange.

"I feel that it's hard to say whether it's true or not, just like what we just saw."

[Spirit Lady] Bovaris spoke coldly. As she spoke, her eyes were always looking towards the center of the hall, at the red mist that was broken but still condensed and did not dissipate.

"Perhaps... their true location was not there in the first place."

Hearing her words, the other two ninth-level masters were also stunned, and then their eyes also turned to the red mist.

Indeed, this possibility is not impossible. If so, then the most likely place to hide something is undoubtedly there.

Are those really just projections... or did someone take them away in advance?

Standing behind [Spirit Princess] Bovaris, Mrs. Mandel glanced at Landon thoughtfully with her eyes, and a thought turned to her mind.

She was a little scared now. Just now in the illusion, she had seen herself breaking through to the ninth level limit, and had trained countless beautiful boys, including the man in the mirror, into her pets, who used their bodies to serve her every day.

But when she opened her eyes again, she was almost swallowed up by the strange barrier.

Fortunately, I was not too greedy and asked for help from the Ninth Level behind me. Otherwise, if I really went in to explore alone, it would be questionable whether I could leave alive this time.

However, according to the current situation, if her guess is true, then she may really have a chance to gain the appreciation of her ninth-level superior and secretly take Heros's Infinite Grimoire into her possession.

However, why hasn't the fog dissipated yet? While Mrs. Mandel was thinking, the situation in the hall changed again.

The red mist did not dissipate as everyone expected, but gradually spun around, forming a dark red vortex.

The black mist formed by the large number of tentacles around was gradually attracted over, causing the color of the vortex to deepen continuously.

The eyes of the three ninth-level warriors became solemn at the same time. They could clearly feel that at the core of the dark vortex, something suddenly appeared that made them feel strongly threatened.

At the same time, the entire pyramid began to shake violently again. With a low rumble, pieces of rubble began to fall, and it looked like it was about to collapse at any time.

"Everyone, leave here immediately! Exit the ruins the same way you came."

With a frown on his face, Leo immediately gave the order.

Obviously, his target was most likely hidden in the core of the vortex. But when the war started, he had no time to care about his subordinates.

After receiving Leo's order, everyone immediately fled in all directions. The other two ninth-level warriors looked at everyone and did not stop them. They also ordered the people they brought with them to escape on their own.

At the last moment of escaping from the hall, Landon couldn't help but look back.

In front of the three ninth-level warriors, at the core of the increasingly expanding dark vortex, a huge figure that was a mixture of countless corpses and black matter was already looming.

Your Majesty Leo, please don't be in any trouble.

After praying silently in his heart, Landon immediately followed the instructions of the Dark Crow and quickly escaped through a hidden passage.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

According to the Dark Crow, they are now on the 99th floor underground, and this passage can quickly reach the 18th floor of the pyramid with very low danger level.

Moving quickly through the constantly vibrating corridor, Landon nimbly dodged falling rocks while avoiding some dark magical tentacles.

Since he could sense the flow of magic in the ruins, these tentacles and traps basically did not cause him any trouble.

After fleeing with all his might, he passed through the secret passage in about half a magic hour and arrived at the eighteenth floor above the ground.

Away from the core area at the bottom, the threat level of the various traps that appear in the pyramid is much smaller than that at the bottom.

"Alas, I wonder how many of my companions will be able to leave here alive this time..."

While running quickly towards the exit, Landon sighed and was a little worried about his companions.

"If you have time to worry about them, you might as well worry about yourself now."

But at this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his ears. At the same time, an invisible force field sphere suddenly rose up, trapping Landon in it.

A figure dressed as a spellcaster slowly emerged from the side of the corridor.

"Who are you?!"

Shocked and angry, Landon punched the force field ball hard, but it had no effect.

"The power of rules, he is at the ninth level! Landon, try to delay time! When I notify you later, release the body immediately!"

Sensing some unusual nature, Dark Crow immediately reminded Lanton in his heart. Then, he fell silent again, and no one knew what he was doing.

"Haha, it's not important."

The figure smiled meaninglessly and shrugged, without answering Landon's question.

Gugu, there is one more chapter at midnight. Gugu      (End of this chapter)
