Chapter 333 Entering the Palace
It seemed like a distance of two hundred meters, but in fact I had walked only four or five hundred meters, and the palace was still far ahead.
"It's indeed a mirage." Shu Li said firmly.
Only mirages can't find the real thing.
"How about...we turn back?" Hector asked.
He thought it was strange to see a magnificent palace in the desert. Even if it was a real palace, it might be hiding danger.
Shu Li glanced at the Elf King's calm face and said, "Keep going!"
Regardless of whether it is a mirage or not, since the Elf King agrees to go, then let's go. Maybe we can find the Water Spirit Pearl.
Farm moved quickly and in the blink of an eye, he had crawled forward more than 500 meters.
Seeing the palace so close, but unable to get any closer, it got more determined, spread its wings, kicked out with its four claws, turned into a red lightning, and rushed forward.
It rushed forward with such force that Shu Li and the others standing on its back were almost thrown away.
Shu Li immediately cast a light magic, firmly fixing everyone on Farm's back.
"I rush, rush, rush—"
Farm used all his strength and rushed towards the palace in front at his fastest speed.
"Ugh—" Siti covered her mouth, "I... I want to vomit..."
Nasha's face turned pale, and she held Leon's arm tightly, barely able to steady herself.
However, Leon's expression was not much better than hers.
The human adventurers, who had never experienced flying, were taken up and down by Farm, and the feeling of weightlessness made their stomachs churn.
Morrissey and Sadler supported each other. Although he looked miserable on the surface, he was actually very happy in his heart.
Dark elves are physically strong and have undergone training similar to raising insects since childhood, so this feeling of weightlessness is nothing to be afraid of.
However, in order to get close to the White Mage, he did everything he could.
Among the crowd, only the little fairy and the little dragon remained calm.
They all have wings and have long been accustomed to flying in the air. No matter how Farm flies, they remain calm.
Shu Li looked at the Elf King who was holding his stomach and gave him a thumbs up in his heart.
What great acting.
Just as Farm was rushing forward with great joy, a cloud of black mist suddenly rose in front of him and rushed towards him with great momentum.
"careful!"
Shu Li was shocked and hurriedly raised his magic wand. When he was about to cast a spell instantly, Farm suddenly braked, his body stopped abruptly, fell to the ground, and raised a cloud of dust.
Fortunately, Shu Li created a light-based protective shield to block the sand in order to immobilize everyone.
"roar--"
As soon as Farm landed, he screamed wildly, trying to force back the skeletons crawling out of the ground.
"What...what's going on?" Hector couldn't help but shiver when he saw the skeleton.
"It's the undead." The Elf King warned, "Prepare for battle."
Two balls of dark blue flames burned in the skeleton's eyes. After crawling out from the ground, it attacked Farm ferociously.
Farm had thick skin and flesh, and was not afraid of the attacks of the skeletons. He turned around impatiently and swung his tail fiercely, defeating the skeletons.
"So weak!" Farm said arrogantly.
"Why are there undead spirits in the maze created by the water god?" Amanda asked blankly.
"Why can't there be undead?" Shu Li asked.
Walking from the first level of the maze to the fourth level, he carefully observed the monsters in the maze and found that most of them were dark, with a few being light.
For example, in the third level maze, the high-level monsters encountered are extremely ferocious, and many refuse to communicate with the fairies.
This phenomenon is extremely rare in the Fairy Forest.
Fairies are the darlings of nature, with strong affinity and the natural ability to communicate with monsters, but they are defeated in the snow mountain maze.
Now seeing the Skeleton Legion, Shu Li had another guess in his mind.
Perhaps the Snow Mountain Maze is not a place for adventurers to test themselves, but a cage for imprisoning the forces of darkness?
There are too many skeletons, densely packed, and one after another. No matter how strong Farm's defense is, there will be some that slip through the net.
"Attack together." Shu Li gave an order and took the lead in releasing dozens of light balls.
The ball of light shot towards the skeleton and exploded with a "bang", blowing the skeleton into pieces.
The others were not willing to be left behind, and they all raised their magic wands, aimed at the skeleton army, and chanted magic attack spells.
Leon and his two guards clenched their swords and stared blankly.
They had no long-range attack skills, and jumping off Farm's back to fight against the Skeleton Legion would not give them any advantages, but would instead put them in danger.
Leon's face was solemn, holding the magic sword in his hand, but he felt a sense of frustration as if he had nowhere to exert his strength.
He looked at Seleu, only to see him expertly wielding his magic staff, releasing fire snakes that burned the army of skeletons.
A hint of surprise flashed in Leon's deep purple eyes.
It turns out he is a magic swordsman!
On the third floor, Seleu was wearing the swordsman's soft armor and was able to kill monsters with his sword with ease.
So, Leon thought he was a swordsman like himself, but he saw him skillfully casting magic, effectively damaging the skeleton army.
Leon felt a little sad and a little envious.
With the joint cooperation of everyone, the skeleton army suffered heavy losses and was killed in large numbers. Seeing that it could not withstand the powerful firepower, the skeleton with half of its skeleton emerging from the desert ground cleverly retreated into the ground.
Shu Li: ...
What a coward!
The crisis was resolved, and Hector sat on Farm's back and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Finally cleaned it up. It almost drained my magic power." He said.
"Don't let your guard down, what if there are more monsters?" Morrissey kicked him lightly on the butt.
"How can I be so unlucky?" Hector didn't believe it.
The next second, he was slapped in the face.
Following the skeleton army, a group of ugly low-level monsters came.
"——There really is a monster!" Shu Li glanced at Morrissey. What a jinx! What a jinx!
Hector stood up with a sad face, leaning on his magic wand. "We already have the monster, so it wouldn't be surprising if there's another demon king."
Siti covered his mouth with her hand. "Don't say that!"
Monsters are easy to kill, but demon lords are hard to defeat.
She didn't want to experience the battle of Wobba Canyon again.
They had to put in a lot of effort to deal with a demon king who was at the bottom of the ranking. If there was another more powerful demon king, they might not be able to withstand it.
The number of monsters was less than that of skeletons. Leon and his two guards could not hold back any longer. They jumped off Farm's back and rushed forward without hesitation, starting a killing spree.
"Brother, Dur, and Horley, be careful!" Nasha shouted worriedly.
The swordsman answered her with a cool and violent slash.
The three of them held swords, formed the strongest iron triangle, and attacked the monsters rushing towards them with all their might.
The strength of these monsters is equivalent to that of fourth or fifth-level monsters. When they collided with the Sword of Itno in Leon's hand, they were instantly reduced to ashes.
The magic sword is indeed the nemesis of monsters.
Seleu put away his magic wand, drew the golden sword from his waist, leaped forward, and rushed into the group of monsters.
The attack power of the sword master level is invincible, and the monsters are killed and begin to retreat.
However, Shu Li would not give them a chance to retreat.
The swordsmen drew fire from the front, while the magicians launched long-range attacks from the rear, crushing the enemy all the way and unknowingly approaching the magnificent palace.
"It's not a mirage!" Shu Li sighed, thinking that the Elf King was indeed reliable.
The palace in front of us looks majestic, but it shows traces of time everywhere. It stands alone in the desert and seems out of place.
Farm stopped in front of the palace gate and sniffed around like a dog, sniffing here and there.
Shu Li and others jumped off its back and approached the palace gate cautiously.
"How do we get in?" Angel asked puzzledly.
The palace gate was tightly shut, with no mechanism to open it. I banged against it with my body, but it didn't budge.
"There's a magic circle on the door." The Elf King raised his hand and pointed at the groove on the door. "We need to insert the magic stone."
"Oh, really!" Amanda is worthy of being a wealthy dragon. She easily took out several high-level magic stones with seven attributes, which made Morrisey jealous again.
The dragon race is the richest race in the world, no doubt about it!
Shu Li picked up a fire magic stone and inserted it into the corresponding groove on the door.
"bite--"
The palace gate made a sound, and the Fire Magic Stone released its power, and the magic circle drawn on the door for who knows how many years lit up.
It seems to be set correctly.
Quickly, he stuffed the remaining six Philosopher's Stones into the grooves of the gate one by one.
As the sound of "ding ding" rang out, the entire magic circle came back to life, and every line lit up, forming a complete and exquisite high-level magic circle.
Shu Li instinctively took a step back and bumped into the Elf King's shoulder.
"Huh? Yeah... I'm sorry." He apologized quickly.
The Elf King held his shoulders and said gently, "It's okay."
"Is there any treasure in there?" Amanda said longingly.
To activate the magic circle, seven ninth-order magic stones were used, which were priceless. There better be countless treasures inside the palace, otherwise the gains will outweigh the losses!
"Of course there is," Budno said. "I can't wait to go in and take a look."
Everyone looked at the successfully activated magic circle expectantly, waiting for the palace to open.
Unexpectedly, the magic circle suddenly turned into a vortex with strong suction force, sucking in all seventeen defenseless people.
"ah?"
Shu Li only felt a flash before his eyes, and the scene around him changed.
Good news, he successfully entered the palace.
Bad news, he's gotten smaller.
"What's going on?" Shu Li had a dazed look on his face. He could see his current appearance clearly from the crystal clear floor.
He…his disguise disappeared, revealing his true form as a goblin.
Since the magic robe he was originally wearing did not have the function of expanding or shrinking, it now fell off completely and landed on the ground, revealing his naked little body and the pair of gauze-like wings behind him.
Shu Li blushed, covered her private parts with both hands, and looked around to see other people's reactions.
But, there was no one around, no one else at all.
Shu Li was shocked.
What about others?
Didn’t you enter the palace?
The little goblin was a little panicked, covering her crotch and feeling a little at a loss.
"Sperian..."
A heavenly voice came from behind.
It’s the Elf King!
Shu Li flapped his wings and turned around instantly, only to see the golden-haired Elf King holding a golden sword in his hand, standing in front of a pillar five meters away from him.
Coincidentally, his disguise also disappeared, revealing his true appearance.
As for the sword in his hand—
Shu Li couldn't help but widen her tender green eyes.
It's the Sword of Carlos!
No way?
After Seleu entered the palace, he turned into a sword?
