Chapter 24: Attacked

The Trial Team marched vigilantly through the underground caverns. Although they are demons, no matter how strong they are now, to this world that has existed for countless years, they are always like ants, and there are many creatures that can easily pinch them to death.

"Oh no, gargoyle!

After hearing Ling Feng's shout, the group began to flee in a panic. And behind them was a group of sixth-order demonic beasts, gargoyles! They were about the same height as normal demonic people, bare and hairless, their eyes radiated a strange green light, and their strange skin was almost the same as the rocks not only in color, but also in texture.

"There are a lot of entrances now, which way to go?" When the group came to a place where several holes appeared, everyone stopped.

"Can gargoyles communicate?" He Xi asked Meng Yao.

"I'll act like you've never asked that question. Meng Yao replied to He Xi while running wildly, if she could communicate, then what else would she run as a summoner.

"Here I and the other warriors will stand up first, and you will protect the mage to cast a space spell, otherwise we will all have to explain here today. I've signaled, and the academy's rescue team will be here in a moment. Ling Feng roared, then drew his sword and rushed out with the other warriors.

He Xi carefully looked at the gargoyles in front of him, they were standing upright fighting the members of the trial team, they didn't care about the attack of the sword, all the attacks didn't seem to have any effect except to bring some sparks on them.

A gargoyle waved its thick rock arm at He Xi. He Xi blocked it with a single knife, but the gargoyle's terrifying power took him by surprise. However, fortunately, He Xi has begun to contact magic in the past few days when he joined the trial team, and through the blessing of magic, this has given him the ability to fight with gargoyles. He kicked the gargoyle in the stomach, sending the guy flying straight away.

"Hurry up, mages, I won't last long!" He Xi glared at the two mages behind him, and shouted very anxiously.

He Xi understood that now he had to use the power of magic to fight against these gargoyles, their skin was too hard for the sword to hurt them in the slightest. He held the magic stone pendant hanging around his neck in his hand, felt the magic power of the magic stone gushing out, and whispered the magic spell in his mouth. A few seconds later, his two scimitars were covered in a faint blue light.

When the gargoyles approached again, He Xi slashed open the head of one of the gargoyles with a wave of his sword. Obviously, this group of demonic beasts who are not afraid of force are afraid of magic, but just a fallen gargoylee does not give them much of an advantage for the trial team. Some of the warriors who also knew some magic also began to learn from He Xi's example, using magic to bless their weapons, which gave the battle some hope of turning around.

Although they had found a way to deal with gargoyles, they were sixth-order demonic beasts after all, and every time they killed one of them meant that their magic power faded and cost one point. Due to the continuous pouring of gargoyles against the trial team, the two mages had no way to cast the space circle, so He Xi and the two mages finally dispersed with the team, and now in this cave, only He Xi and Meng Yao and another mage will face what happened next.

A rock arm reached out from the ground, grabbed a mage's calf, and pulled him into the ground, the mage's face instantly twisted, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

He Xi raised his scimitar and slashed at the rock arm. The scimitar hit the target and slashed it to pieces, although the scimitar was attached to the magic, but the hard rock skin still shook He Xi's hand painfully. Looking at the mage again, half of his body was already submerged in the solid ground, and he had long lost any life.

Just as He Xi was about to take Meng Yao to escape and join the trial team, Meng Yao showed an evil smile. A powerful thunderbolt instantly fell from the top of He Xi's head and slammed into He Xi's skull.

"He Xi was captured by a gargoyle. When Ling Feng and the rest of the team rushed over, Meng Yao told him.

Looking at the traces of the surrounding battle and the corpse of the mage on the ground, Ling Feng opened his mouth and asked, "Where have you gone, why are you okay?"

Meng Yao shook her head and pointed to her thigh that was injured by the stone and said, "Originally, I thought those gargoyles would kill me too, but the sound of you coming scared them away, and at the same time, they also took He Xi away. ”

"Really, you're lucky, your black dragon, call it out, it can definitely track He Xi's scent. Ling Feng showed a suspicious look on his face, but now that the rescue team had arrived, it was important to save people, so he didn't continue to ask.

After the light of the circle flashed, a black dragon appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Ling Feng said to the black dragon, "Find He Xi, I want his specific location." ”

"Go ahead. Meng Yao ordered, Hei Yan sniffed around, and then flew out along the narrow tunnel, and the trial team and rescue team quickly followed.

"Where is this......" He Xi asked when he finally regained consciousness. He knew he was sitting, and he knew that his hands were tied to the stone pillar behind him. However, the scene that appeared in front of him made He Xi gasp instantly.

At this time, not far in front of him was a translucent humanoid creature, surrounded by layers of blood mist, and its two eyes glowed green, full of a thick evil aura. Obviously, this was the underworld creature that Ling Feng was talking about, and a group of gargoyles were standing motionless next to the strange creature at this time.

"Demon people, your clan wants me to take your life, originally I wasn't interested in this deal. But they said that you are a demon with excellent talent and double cultivation, and your body and soul will definitely not disappoint me. Now, it seems, that's really the case. The underworld creature said hoarsely.

"What the hell are you, and can you make me die to understand who wants my life. He Xi pretended to be calm and asked, he really wanted to understand who designed himself like this.

The eerie voice reappeared, and said mockingly: "I am from the underworld, and I am a terrible ghost. As for anything else you want to know, I'll tell you when I've eaten your flesh and drained your soul. ”

As soon as the words fell, several gargoyles slowly walked towards He Xi, removed the chains tied to him, and then dragged him step by step towards the ghosts.
