A dark, damp cave with a large open space for people to live in and stone houses piled up on a hill. They are pitch black on the outside, with small white grass and green flowers planted in front of their doors.

Behind it is a majestic mage tower, with dozens of black crystals floating in the spire, shining with a moving luster.

It's just that at this moment, the clearing in front of it was crowded with hundreds of pitch-black stone people, as well as all kinds of energy spells shuttling through the sky, intertwined into colorful fireworks, and burst open.

"Roar!! Mankind!! "For the first time, the fourth-order stone elemental was holding a stone staff, and he felt so angry. All the companions were rapidly decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and in perhaps another ten or so minutes, only a few hundred would survive.

Similarly, the loss of so many companions made many stone people only ten meters away from Grant and the others. Almost face-to-face collisions.

Grant saw the other party rushing over, stopped and released the spell, grabbed it into the air, and a black sword appeared out of thin air.

Lei Fei beside him also grabbed into the air, and a light blue cross sword appeared, and the sword body was covered with layers of green lines. This is Grant's reshaped sword, with hardness and attack power up a notch.

"Refi and I went up and tried to stop them from attacking, and I'll leave the rest to you, you know?"

"No problem, you and Refe stand in the way. As long as you hold on for another four minutes, I believe that the number of stone men can be suppressed to the point where there is no danger. ”

Brillant then threw out a dark green, furry object. Falling into the middle of the ground, it suddenly exploded the chest and head of the two stone figures, and even the stone chips on the ground fell into the air. Turned into dust and smashed down.

"Do you want us to help you?" Momo Blue sends a message to Grant. She thinks that even if Grant and Refe are good at close combat, the stone in front of them has a strong physique. It is no longer comparable to human beings.

Grant shook his head and said coldly, "No! ”

"Be careful, then."

"Rest assured. I've always spared my life! Grant drew his sword, struck in a stabbing style, and rushed to the nearest stone man with a stab. A misty black energy emerged from the surface of the blade. When the sword flashed, the stone man's head fell neatly and smoothly to the ground.

Shout! Seeing the opportunity, a stone man behind him jumped up and swung his fist fiercely, the whirring wind tearing through the air and blasting Grant in the back with unmistakable accuracy. He had just seen his companion create an opportunity for himself, and since this was the case, then he would definitely succeed.

"Humph!" Refe didn't know when it would show up. A sword slash slashed through the stone man's chest, poking out a large hole. The heart of the earth inside suddenly split apart and fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Refe stood behind me, be careful. Try to unleash your power without suspicion from others. Grant took a few steps back, leaning right behind Refay. He ran over to fend off the stone men, partly to help Brillant and them delay some time, and partly to save mana.

"Yes. Master! Rafi nodded, stepped on his toes, and stretched out a sword flower that pierced the stone man's body. Then he drew his sword fiercely. The entire stone man's body dissipated with a bang. Seeing her move, Grant slammed into the nearest crowd of stones, trying to cut off all of them.

The two sides confronted each other like this. Brillant retreated as he played, and saw that more than a third of the stone crowd was pinned down by Grant and Refe. A little relieved, he hurriedly shouted: "Everyone cheer up." There are still two minutes to press to a safe position. ”

"We understand, let's fight!" Mo Mo Lan, Kelly and the others unleashed spells desperately, frantically extracting the spiritual power and mana stored in the Sea of Meditation. The energy of the elemental particles in the entire mid-air is extracted uncontrollably, forming a thin environment.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Many stone men went forward, but fell in front of them. Layer upon layer, forming a domino effect.

More than a minute later.

"Starry sky!" Grant jumped in the middle and turned to swing dozens of sword rays. The pale cyan green light split into cyan points of light the size of a grain of rice in mid-air, like stars in the sky.

They slashed through the arcs like meteors and smashed into the stone man, smashing out small holes and spilling out a lot of slimy liquid.

Refi threw a fist-sized seed and burrowed into the ground.

"Great earthquake!"

The seed falls to the ground and releases energy. Caused the entire ground to roar, cracking several cracks. The stone man standing felt the ground shake back and forth, trying to stop it but there was nothing he could do.

Grant's eyes lit up, and he leapt into the air and stabbed down. The sword light swept through the necks of the surrounding stone men like flowing water, and a large number of stone men fell as a result, destroying the heart of the earth in their hearts.

As soon as he swung it, he turned his wrist, and a scroll appeared floating in the center of his palm.

Grant directly tore the edge of the paper, and a fire elemental giant ran out of it, brutally ramming the stone men around who dared to rush over. Temporarily block the remaining tide of stone people to squeeze Grant.

He fell, his body was half bent, and he gasped a little: "Refey, we are ready to retreat." Now that my stamina is exhausted, my mana is almost wasted, and all that is left is to sustain your activities in a small area of reality. ”

"Yes." Refi nodded, reaching out and smashing the bodies of the two stonemen with his sword, making way for them. Grant took the opportunity to follow the route opened by Refi in the direction of Brillant.

When I saw them retreating seven or eight meters in front of the entrance of the cave, they were resisting the piles of stones and stone people around them.

"I can't hold on any longer, I'll leave the rest to you." Grant said tiredly.

"Thank you, the remaining stone people will only get weaker and weaker, and we have been able to hold on." Brillant nodded gratefully to Grande as he threw out several small fiery snakes, harassing them.

Grant leaned on the edge of the cave wall, walked to the entrance of the cave, sat down, and leaned his back against the wall.

He took out a bottle of light blue potion and drank it, goo-dong, goo-dong...... The potion is poured into the body, bringing a large amount of pure energy.

"It's really cool, the feeling of exhaustion brought by no mana is really uncomfortable." Grant couldn't help but let out a sigh and turned his head to glance at the stone man who Brilland was sweeping away, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. The energy brought by the massive slaughter just now directly rose to one-ninth, and a few more times, it could directly rise by one level.

After Grant regained some strength, he went to strangle the remaining stone men again. His efforts made the other mages feel strange and incomprehensible. However, they felt that it would be better if someone was willing to do it, and in the end, it took six minutes to clean up all the stone people.

Brillant and the others had consumed most of the scrolls and the Fractional Great Runic Array Disk, and the staff had some minor damage. These are all to be consumed with money, not to mention mental power, mana recovery potions, etc.

Fortunately, they knew that there were still massive resources stored by fifth-order mages in the mage tower, which was enough to make up for this loss.

After resting for a while, the leader Brillant felt that he was almost recovered, stood up and walked to Grant's side, and asked, "Are we going to act now, there is still a little distance." ”

"Yes, it's okay, but there's a blood lake in front of you, and there are some blood demons there, and it's estimated that they will have to be cleaned up." Grant thought of the difficulty here and said casually.

"And?" Brillant's face was ugly, just one round of stone men was enough to consume the spell engraver, the scroll, the Great Rune Disk, and many potions. If there is another round, I can't resist it if I want to.

"This time it's not as difficult as last time, and we still act." Grant smiled slightly, as if he had guessed what Brillant was thinking, and comforted him a little.

When Brillant heard this, his face looked slightly better, and he smiled: "Since that's the case, then let's go." ”

"Yes." Grande nodded, and saw Momolan, Kelly, Roth, and the others get up one after another, holding the staff and walking to the side.

On the side of the hill where the stone houses are stacked is a very ordinary meadow, and the ground is covered with clusters of small white flowers and fine stones.

A few small hills and a looming grove were raised ahead, and beyond that only the Mage Tower could be seen.

The oncoming cold wind blows on your face, and you can smell the faint scent of grass.

"Let's go." Grant knew that there was a forbidden space array in the sky above, and it was impossible to fly, unless it was a fifth-order. He took the lead in walking to the front, followed by Brillant and the others, and walked forward one by one without pulling down.

Walk along the sparse grass pavement and into the woods. On the gray and yellow tree poles, a few leaves are scattered and falling. With an eagle eye, Grant saw a lake in front of the woods that smelled of pungent blood, sparkling with fine ripples in the breeze.

Above the lake, there were several spots of pale blue light, which seemed to be some kind of metal core, and several circles of spirals were wrapped around the circle.

Grant's side Brillant, Momo Blue, Roth and others saw him using the Eagle Eye Technique, and they were a little curious in their hearts, and they blessed themselves with the Eagle Eye Technique, wanting to see what existed in front of them.

When they saw it, they were a little surprised.

"What's that? Is this what Grant said about the lake of blood? Why is there a fluctuation of nuclear life in the mechanical core above? ”

"It should be some kind of puppet item, but judging from the gargoyle and stone elementals, it should be typical of wanting to use puppets to create a strong army comparable to humans. It's a pity that the stone elemental only has low-level intelligence. ”

"That's right, it's too hard to become a living puppet."

Grant stood aside, but shook his head and thought of the Lord of Life, who could make creatures with higher intelligence than the stone elementals from the fact that he could hold life into his weapons.

"Let's go first!" As the group walked straight through the woods, they could see a bright red lake in front of them.

The oncoming fishy wind caused several people to frown slightly. Only Kelly and Brillant are better, nothing has changed.

"Let's get around here and go to the Mage Tower inside." Grant secretly wanted to wait until he came back to concentrate on these cores, and now go to the mage tower first, and in case of danger, he can use the attack crystal of the mage tower to carry out carpet bombardment.

But at this moment, two figures came out of the woods, led by an old mage in a silver robe.

"Ouch, you're amazing." He smiled, his eyes glinting. (To be continued......)
