The disgusting viscous texture enveloped my head entirely, my ears and nose were instantly filled with disgusting semi-liquid, and the surrounding sounds instantly sounded like gurgling bubbles in the sea, followed by a shouting slash.

As the flickering sword light streaked, I finally felt the fresh air above my head again, and the thing that sneaked up on me didn't know if it was dead or ran, instantly pulling away all the attacks that were gradually wrapping around my body.

"Mr. Xingyu, are you alright?"

It was Athena who spoke, and the woman, by her sense of hearing, rushed to the first place in such a dark hole and saved me from something unknown.

I looked at my HP, and it disappeared by a fifth without any pain.

I wiped away the stickiness from my face and thanked her, "Thank you, it's unappetizing." ”

At the same time, some of the surrounding brothers seem to have suffered the same attack, and although the Guardian class cannot find the attacked person with the naked eye, it can apply health to those with HP fluctuations in the team list, so the team is a little agitated but not too panicked.

"Whew!"

The mage class ignited the [Flame Barrier] in front of it, and the continuously burning wall of fire finally allowed the surrounding area to be refilled with light, but the moment the vision was restored, everyone felt a tingling in their scalps.

As far as you can see, the caves inside are full of long strip-like strange creatures that resemble locusts from the top to the wall to the ground, but the difference is that they are as large as pillars, ranging in length from two to five meters, with no distinction between the front and back, and the color is brown and black like mud.

And these things have been crawling slimy towards us, like swarms of worms on the ocean floor surging from all directions towards dead fish carcasses.

The most important point is not their disgusting appearance and huge number, but the light of the [Flame Barrier] only existed for more than a second before it suddenly went out, and it was not that the skill was interrupted, the skill form and damage still existed, the only difference was that the light disappeared instantly.

Good guys, a bunch of bloodsuckers!

These guys didn't make any sound at all, so we've been surrounded by them since the torch was suddenly extinguished, and if it weren't for my sensitive discovery, these people would have died quietly.

"Get out of the cave now!"

He Shi Chunqiu immediately ordered to retreat first, but the back row of professions didn't take a few steps and began to find that the situation was already critical, those cunning things had already been covered on the way out, and every step of the foot was the slimy body like fat, and the continuous deceleration made the process of the team's retreat extremely slow, and the most important thing was that the deceleration would be stunned or imprisoned after a period of time.

Because of the immune aberment, I am equal to an invincible existence in this place; But the other brethren did not have my character, and the people in the group had to do everything in their power to repel the disgusting things, but they seemed to have no pain or fear, and kept surging forward like a roller.

"Ahh Don't touch me!! Woohoo......"

A brother cried out for help in horror, and the guards next to him quickly used their skills to eliminate the abnormal state and apply blood regeneration to him, but he didn't care about the half of his body fished out of his head, and the big mouth in the darkness violently grabbed his head completely, and directly picked him up and threw him on the top of the cave, and the other [poisonous pond devouring leeches] swarmed up and feasted on him, biting his arms, legs, and body to death so that he couldn't move.

In the chaotic darkness, he couldn't even shout for help, he could only be dragged by those things in an invisible place and wait for death.

The distant entrance of the cave became a backdrop of despair, and several figures struggled in the light, but the huge cylindrical creatures around them poked their mouths and pounced on them one after another.

"Whoosh!"

A sudden explosion sounded in the crowd, followed by several sounds of the same skill, which was the [Long River Sunset] of [Shadow Hunter].

"Are you all right!?"

The rough shouts of the sea came from the direction of the cave entrance, and then there was a charge of horses, and the archers and hussars who rushed from outside the cave poured their fire into it, and the surrounded team finally had a chance to escape.

Staying behind the innermost break, I pushed away a few monsters that were trying to pounce left and right, and beckoned to the team while repelling the monsters with all my might: "Quickly retreat!" I'll cover! ”

"Xingyu! Help me! ”

Suddenly Athena's exclamation for help came from behind, and when I turned my head, there was only darkness in my sight, so I could only ask her location again: "Athena!" Where are you? ”

Not only did she not hear clearly or did not have time to respond, Athena just hurriedly shouted a "save me......" and then stopped moving, and the source of the voice was much farther away than just now.

The surviving brothers have all escaped from the monster group, and with the sea their fire support, the monsters were able to be dispersed, and Shi Chunqiu backhanded the big mouth beside him, shouting at me from afar: "Xiaoyu! The brethren have withdrawn, so go away! ”

"Spring and autumn! Athena was dragged away! ”

"What!?"

The situation was urgent, and I didn't have much room to explain it to him, so I turned my back on the direction of the team's retreat and rushed deeper alone.

Because I don't know if there will be any emergencies, I can't easily release the skill of [Juetian Proud Cold Kill], and I have to have a critical backhand when necessary.

"Athena! Athena, where are you! ”

The shouts were not answered, and the anxious search did not yield much, but vaguely I saw a flash of red light more than ten meters away.

It is the light effect when the swordsman casts a status skill.

I flipped the annoying monsters in front of me like crazy, and kept breaking free and being bitten, and they were sticky like mud that couldn't be shaken off, and they were all around me from beginning to end.

After a few charges, I finally approached the light just now, and [Storm Break] repelled the surrounding monsters, and a flailing hand was struggling around from the pile of monsters stacked in front of me, and that hand grabbed my waist and clothes, like grasping a life-saving straw.

I touched her arm in the direction of that hand, and with my right hand I swung [Starry Sky] to slash at the monsters that were stacked on top of it, and with my left hand, I pulled her out of the monster pile.

"Drink the medicine quickly to remove the abnormal state and restore the amount of blood!"

The monsters that came and went rolled like a tidal wave, and in the darkness I could only attack indiscriminately to keep my surroundings from being filled; Although these things didn't do me any harm, Athena's HP was already in danger, and the end of being surrounded by these monsters was to be stunned or imprisoned to death, and if I had been a step late, she would have confessed here today.

Athena, who was beside her, poured the potion into her mouth one by one, and after recovering a little state, she took out her dual swords again and galloped to fight.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome, hurry up!"

In a cave without light, sound is the only way to prove presence and location.

Although she has been rescued at this moment, another painful problem has emerged one after another———— we can't find the direction.

The cave is deep underground, so the minimap of the visual interface shows only pitch black, and it is impossible to distinguish between east and west, north and south; The light of the cave that could have been used as a branch road is completely invisible at the moment, and those surging monsters have completely blocked our way out.

Although I couldn't see his face in the dark, I could clearly feel the burning gaze.

"Hah!"

Just as Athena and I were blindly looking for the direction of the exit, a shouting charge came from the side, and the wall of leech monsters was knocked open by the sudden force, and then the voice of the spring and autumn of the world: "Go this way!" ”

Not only him, but the archery mages who kept a safe distance dozens of meters behind him were frantically pouring firepower, and the entire cave was filled with all kinds of bombardment and arrows.

The dense fire continued to repel the monsters, and I pushed Athena from behind, and I grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the monsters on the ground, and the rescue operation was finally successful.

It is enough for them to be safe, and I don't have anything to be dragged down at this moment, and Yu Shi Chunqiu also understands this, so he directly fled with Athena, leaving only one sentence: "Xiaoyu!" Rush out with the ultimate mystery! ”

With a clear direction of charge, I only need to launch [Juetian Proud Cold Kill] to be able to unstoppably break through this disgusting encirclement.

Just as I got rid of a few leech monsters behind me and was about to launch my skills, a large black shadow suddenly fell on the top of the cave in front of me, and there were too many monsters rolling and crawling so that they couldn't grasp the roof of the cave, and they lost their center of gravity and turned directly into a lump of dead flesh.

"Bang la, haw, haw, ......"

The chirps of the slime falling down smashed on my body, and I staggered and couldn't stand steadily, instinctively reaching out left and right to hold on to the wall and other supports, but my feet stepped on the air, and I suddenly fell into a hole in the middle of nowhere.

"Ahhhh

The fall in the dark was the most helpless, I couldn't see anything at all, only hit the wall full of leeches from side to side, and after a few seconds, I fell straight into the water, and before I could adjust my posture and swim up, I was smashed on top of my head by several leeches that fell down from the top of my head and pressed me down.

The feeling of powerlessness in the water made people helpless, I could only feel the large body pressing down and sinking, and the only sound in my ears was the "purring ......" sound coming from my mouth.

"There is light?"

I don't know how deep I fell, my back finally leaned against the ground, and when I came back to my senses, I suddenly saw a bright blue point of light from the side, the light in the darkness was like a good medicine to wake me up, I quickly used [Shun Reverse Qiankun] to transform into [Wind Shadow Grandmaster], and used the displacement to escape from the bottom of the pile of monsters pressing on me, and directly reached out to clasp the protrusion that glowed with blue light.

After stopping, I realized that there was a hole more than two meters wide that extended into it next to this blue light bulge, and there were several blue light spots not far inside, and I could see through the faint illumination of those light spots that there was no [Poison Pond Swallowing Leech] in this hole that extended in.

The remaining two displacements made me quickly go deeper into the cave, and the further I went, the more the points of light bulged, and gradually began to become dense and bright, all the way to the unknown distance.

Seeing that my breath bar was rapidly descending, there was no room for me to go back the way I came, and there was no leech monster to make trouble, so I paddled desperately and continued to go inside to see if I could find a way out.

"Poof...... Ha! Whew!! ”

After swimming a long distance along the rising waterway, my breathing bars had already run out and began to deduct my HP, and when my HP was about to bottom, I finally poked out of the water, greedily breathing in the somewhat muddy but thankful air.

After a little respite I looked up at the hole, the top of my head was completely sealed, it was still inside some cave; And the cave was densely packed with blue points of light, hanging all over the cave like stars in the night.

I tentatively lit a torch, and without the monsters messing around, the torch was finally able to be used normally, and by the light of the torch I could finally see my surroundings clearly.

And the water I was on was very small, and next to it was a platform out of the water.

I swam over and climbed onto the platform, following the torch light to look up at the steep slope in front of me, which was getting deeper and deeper, and there was no end in sight.

"Xiaoyu, are you okay!?"

After discovering that I was missing, they sent a message to confirm my situation, in order not to worry them, I quickly replied: "Don't worry, I fell into a cave under the water, there are no monsters here, I'll see what kind of place this is, and then go back to the city and teleport to the teleportation array on the edge of the island." ”

Hanging up the message, I continued to walk inside, the steep slope in front of me seemed to be blocked by the huge rock wall, but a closer look gave me a sudden discovery.

On the rock wall, there is a somewhat broken ladder hanging up the vertical rock wall.
