The fire sprites flying in the air had already received Luo Fan's warning and were preparing their magic. The greatest advantage of elven mages is that their spellcasting time is shorter and their power is also greater than that of humans of the same level.

Arthur stood in front, the longsword in his hand gleaming coldly, ice magic spreading across it.

Martial artists differ from mages in that they possess relatively limited magical power and have a limited ability to manipulate external magical energy. However, they have mastered the use of magical power to the extreme, enabling them to enhance weapons, equipment, and their own bodies, thereby increasing their combat capabilities.

Different attributes can have very different effects.

When martial artists of the same level fight against mages, they may not be able to win in ranged combat, but once they get close, the mages will only be able to get crushed.

They generally don't summon magical pets, but instead directly purchase tamed magical beasts. Therefore, in wilderness combat, martial artists are actually stronger. As a result, Sacred Heart Martial Arts Academy enrolls far more students each time than magic academies.

Suddenly, the ice wolves sprang into action. Presumably seeing their companion easily killed, they didn't pounce directly. Instead, countless ice spikes erupted, filling the entire cave.

Arthur and his companions were somewhat desperate, but they all raised their shields.

Just then, Luo Fan transformed into a shield, blocking the two girls, and Huo Yu finally unleashed the magic he had prepared.

"Explosive Flame Strike!"

Except for a few ice spikes that Luo Fan blocked, most of them were dissipated by fire magic, and then a huge explosion came from the other side!

"This is... a fourth-tier Explosive Flame Spell?" Emil muttered to herself. How come she didn't know that her pet had actually mastered a fourth-tier spell?

Countless ice wolves were severely injured by the explosion, and many were killed outright, as the space was not large.

A large crater was blasted out in front of them, and a new cave even appeared inside the crater, with half of the original cave blocked by rocks.

Luo Fan rushed forward to finish off the enemy, absorbing a large amount of blood and obtaining many Ice Demon Cores.

Just as everyone relaxed a little, a series of commotions came from behind them. Luo Fan sensed that a large number of magical beasts were approaching.

Behind the pile of rocks ahead, many wolves were howling. Only the cave that had been blasted open seemed to be safe.

"Aili, run towards that cave in the pit! There are monsters coming from behind!" Luo Fan shouted a warning.

Ellie quickly grabbed Emil and started running. Arthur noticed something amiss behind them and decisively followed. Just as they reached the cave entrance, a large group of Frost Wolves surrounded the pit.

Perhaps sensing something, these creatures did not jump down, but instead began to devour their companions' bodies.

"What do we do, Ellie? We're surrounded!" Emil cried out, clinging to Ellie's arm in a panic.

"Wait a minute, let's see if those magical beasts will come down!" Ellie was very calm, after all, Luo Fan was there to analyze the situation for her.

Little Fire Rain had just cast a fourth-tier spell and was feeling a bit weak, so she was currently resting while holding Luo Fan.

“Miss Ellie’s idea is correct. As long as we don’t attack first, those guys shouldn’t jump down!” Arthur glanced at Ellie, explained, and then remained crouched in front, wary of possible sneak attacks.

The cave is in a good location, providing shelter from the ice wolf pack's magical attacks. The small entrance also helps prevent the wolves from rushing in.

This girl seems very experienced; she doesn't look like she's visiting the dungeon for the first time.

Emil breathed a sigh of relief, gripping his staff tightly, ready to unleash a spell at any moment.

Before long, many of the wolves dispersed, leaving only a few lying on the ground and grooming their fur.

"Why aren't those wolves leaving yet!" Emil was getting impatient; she didn't want to die young.

"How about we walk along this cave? Maybe we can find a new exit?" Arthur suggested, and Luo Fan silently gave him a thumbs up.

“Okay, the older man here has the most experience, we’ll listen to you.” Ellie agreed, and the three of them slowly got up and walked deeper into the cave.

After walking for a while without encountering any magical beasts, Arthur breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"There's no rotten smell in the air. Could this place be different from others?" Luo Fan wondered to himself. "And it seems we've been going down. Could we be heading towards the fourth level?"

"Uncle, we seem to be going the wrong way. Why are we going downhill?" Ellie couldn't help but ask.

"This..." Arthur finally realized what was happening, feeling a little flustered. "How about we rest for a while?"

“Okay! Let’s eat something first.” Emil agreed to the idea, took out some food, and shared some with the others.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Luo Fan sent out some clones to explore the path ahead. Before long, they actually found an exit that was partially covered by a large rock.

"It stinks!" Through the sparse light, Luo Fan discovered a huge pit below, where a magical beast was sleeping, its exact level unknown.

There were countless wrecks in front of the monster, and it was impossible to tell whose they were, but the skulls among them indicated that humans had definitely been inside.

"Has this encountered a boss? Or is it a dark-type boss? If we kill it, we can definitely make a fortune."

Leaving his clone behind to continue monitoring, Luo Fan slipped back and told Ai Li the news.

"Boss? Can we beat him? Could it be that rioting guy on the fifth floor?"

"Impossible, that nest looks very old. It should be a mini-boss on the fourth floor. Ellie, do you want to give it a try? There are a lot of monster remains there, all good stuff!"

Can we?

"It should be about right, I'm here. And we might even find our way back; I saw that the entrance to that nest was facing upwards."

"Oh well!"

After resting, the three set off again, but this time Ellie was much faster. Fire Rain had already received Luo Fan's notification, knew the situation ahead, and was prepared for battle.

Once they were close to the exit, Ellie told the others to move quietly. Then, during Emil's inspection, they discovered the level of the monster.

30!

After exchanging glances, Fire Rain, who had been waiting to the side, took the lead and began to gather magic power. Arthur was also ready, poised to leap out at any moment. Luo Fan transformed into several small balls, ready to sprint forward.

"Explosive Flame Strike!"

A huge fireball hurtled towards the monster lurking in the shadows, causing the entire cave to shake.

After the explosion, apart from a few sparks, no monsters were seen.

"Damn it, it's a Shadow Wolf! Quickly cast some illumination spells!" Arthur hurriedly warned.

The Shadow Wolf, a lone wolf of the dungeon, can completely conceal its body in darkness to launch surprise attacks. It is also adept at shadow binding, and its teeth and claws are infused with poison, making it extremely difficult to kill.

Fire Rain quickly conjured several fireballs and shot them directly to various corners, soon forcing out a giant wolf.

"Awoo~~!"

A deafening wolf howl echoed throughout the cave, chilling Arthur to the bone. He had absolutely no chance of killing it; this magical beast was too fast and adept at ambushes!

Ellie and Emil hid behind the rocks, gathering their magic. Arthur jumped down, ready for battle.

When facing the Shadow Wolf, you need to stand in an open area, otherwise it is easy for it to ambush you.

Fire Rain replenished some magic potions, flew into the air, and cast several lighting spells, quickly illuminating the cave.

A wolf, entirely black, appeared before them. It was about the size of a lion, with gloomy eyes, staring intently at the rain of fire above.

Suddenly, shadows began to swirl towards the rain of fire, but she dodged them and rose to a higher position once more.

At this moment, Ellie's spell was complete. Countless shadows wrapped around him, and with the addition of Shadow Weakening and Shadow Arrow, the Black Wolf's movements were temporarily restricted.

Emil's Fire Serpent followed closely behind with the Fire Phoenix Strike, striking its body.

Arthur also sprang into action, slashing directly at the target with his greatsword.

With another roar, the black wolf broke free of its restraints, withstood the attack of flames, dodged Arthur's blow, and disappeared into the shadows beside it.

"Come here right now! It can move through shadows!" Arthur yelled, startling Ellie and Emil, who quickly scurried down. The three of them stood back to back, casting shields and unleashing low-level spells at the shadow.

The situation is not optimistic!
