The red liquid flowed into his eyes, and Tarrant shook his head weakly, the things in his vision were still stained with a red film, and the strange blur was full of blood.

His teammate's torch shone in his face, "You're badly wounded!" Rex looked nervous, he stuck the torch on the base of the idol, and climbed up the cradle.

"Beware...... Cough...... The statue ......" Tarrant rushed to warn his teammates, causing him to breathe and cough violently.

In the distance, there was a series of sounds of heavy objects rolling, and a round artifact fell out of the darkness.

Rex turned his head alarmedly, it was a stone thing, what seemed to be...... He jumped off the idol and walked towards the thing, and when he saw it clearly, he shouted into the darkness, "Kitty?"

The graceful golden wolf walked out of the darkness with a one-line stride, its "whirring" gasp sounding like it had just hunted, and it crouched beside Rex, rubbing its golden retriever around its neck with its forepaws, and then stomped on the stonework.

"That statue is no longer a threat," Rex said to Tarrant, turning to comfort Tarrant, "it's broken into several pieces." ”

"Good ......" Hearing this, Tarrant's whole body relaxed, only to find that his ribs were stuck in a hard object and were very uncomfortable, and he needed to change his position, he shook his body and tried to turn over, but the whole person lost his balance and slipped off the idol.

"Be careful!" Rex ran quickly to pick up Tarrant, whose face was covered in blood, as he watched his teammates crash from a height of several meters and collapse to the ground like a sandbag. ”

"Huh...... cough ......" The spit fell on his face like rain, and Tarrant felt that his body was leaking everywhere, and he couldn't even gather a wry smile, "It's okay...... I've ...... I don't feel conscious......"

"Hold on," Rex dragged his teammates to the base of the idol, "I'll treat you." ”

"And maybe ...... Shadow Eater ...... "Tarrant grabbed Rex's wrist, and he couldn't be optimistic anymore in this temple, and the stalked things came like a nightmare with the team's spells.

"Rest assured, they won't come," the priest comforted, taking his hand away and chanting intently.

The powerful energy of the healing technique was applied to Tarrant's whole body, and the blood, abrasions, and bruises disappeared one by one, and the pain caused by the trauma also decreased.

"How's that", Rex lifted Tarrant's arm, "give it a try." ”

The five fingers of Tarrant's right hand slowly retracted, shrinking into a fist through the fingers, and the fingertips still couldn't touch the palm of his hand after several efforts, no, he couldn't use his strength at all, and he lost his melee ability.

Rex lifted Tarrant's arm and smiled rarely, "The experience of life is really repeated, like in a falcon's lair, you protect me first, and then I have to hold you again." ”

"Hmph", Tarrant protested with his nose, "I should wait here for my current situation, it's not my forte to be a heavy baggage", and he didn't have to work so hard to speak.

"Haven't you heard the saying, don't ask others to do what you can't do", Rex looked back at the golden wolf who was following the two of them, and continued: "You can't give up on your teammates, and so can I. ”

Tarrant was about to retort when a hot breath rushed through his stomach, and he bit his lip and stopped talking.

"Hey", the golden wolf has changed back to Kitty, "Where's Katrina?"

"Aisle crossing", Rex pointed to the first aisle.

"She must be frightened," Kitty said, running away.

There was no movement in the darkness for a long time.

"Kitty?" Rex had become extra cautious, and the team couldn't afford any more surprises.

"Shhh ”

"What's going on?" the light of the fire slowly shone through, and they saw the mage lying at the entrance of the passageway, his long hair spread out, his chest undulating evenly, asleep.

Kitty propped up the wall, "She's so weak and needs a break." ”

Rex put down Tarrant, "Take a break here, I'll stand guard." ”

"Really good at picking places", Tarrant leaned aside, the trauma was no longer in his way, but after a violent flight, his body did need to recover.

"Rest," Kitty smiled, clasping her hands to her chest, the hardship of which did not seem to affect her.

Rex stood on the other side, "You also need to rest after the battle you just had. ”

The three of them stopped talking and remained silent in tacit understanding.

Tarrant originally planned to lie down at this moment to rest for a while, but when he closed his eyes, he only felt that the world was spinning, his consciousness became hazy, and the stuffiness in his chest was clearer, cruel torture, he simply opened his eyes, and his unwilling lonely thoughts began to recall the battle just now, and he didn't even know who the defeated opponent was, "What was that thing just now?"

After a brief silence, Rex spoke, "What's behind the aisle?"

"A buried room. ”

"Buried, where did it come from?"

"It was right in front of the door of the room, and when I saw it, it was just a statue, just like this idol. ”

"Tarrant, this is blasphemy against God," Kitty carefully reminds her that even a god who has long since fallen needs to be respected by the world.

Tarrant pouted helplessly, "I'm sorry. ”

Rex bowed his head and groaned, "I thought its body was close to the statue...... It's just a statue, you see. ”

"That's right. ”

Rex couldn't find a clue, "The moving statue, it's hard to imagine, could it be a mechanism made by an ancient elf?"

"It's flexible, it doesn't look like a structure," Kitty has seen the speed and anatomy of the thing.

"Stony-skinned birds......" Rex suddenly thought of another incredible question, "There should be no food in this temple, it hasn't eaten for at least 10,000 years, how did it survive until now?"

"It can only be said that it is another monster that is rare in 10,000 years", Tarrant has carved out a new class of creatures in common sense, called "Lost Temple Creatures", they all have the same characteristics and content: enigma.

Rex sat down against the wall, "I think of a creature with skin as hard as stone. He managed to draw the attention of his two teammates, "They usually store in the form of statues to confuse the enemy and deliver a fatal blow when the enemy relaxes." ”

"What the hell?" Tarrant looked forward to the most straightforward answer.

"Gargoyles. ”

Tarrant glanced at Kitty, "Seems to have heard of this name." ”

Apparently wanting to hear more, Rexton paused for a moment and said, "It's pure speculation, and I don't know much more about them than you do." ”

"Well," Tarrant lay down boringly, "and even knowing they're gargoyles won't help us." He glanced at the sleeping mage, who might know more.

"I've heard ......" Kitty crouched down to her teammates and whispered, "They always come in pairs." ”
