Chapter 370: The Second Spine

There wasn't much space between the temple and the forest, and the surrounding stone walls were full of ivy and wild vines. Maffeo looked up www.biquge.info and at the same moment, he had a strange tickling sensation, as if some invisible mollusk was clinging to his skin, slowly crawling along his neck, making his cold hairs stand upside down, and Maffeo knew what it meantβ€”a sign of danger or a hostile gaze wandering over his body.

An empty, deserted courtyard-like place appeared in front of the two of them, and Finn who walked in front of him frowned, he had to confirm where he was. The path adjacent to the temple has many branches, so it's not without the possibility of going the wrong way. They hadn't encountered any monsters or mind-controlled believers for a long time, and they hadn't been attacked by tentacles, which made the two suspicious.

The courtyard was surrounded on three sides by the walls of the temple, and it was clearly a dead end, and Finn hesitated to go in and have a look. But there was really nothing to care about in the courtyard, so he simply turned back to Maffeo. "Get out of the way, we may be on the wrong track. ”

"Damn, that's not a good situation. Maffeo scolded under his breath.

"We don't know the terrain here, after all, no one was able to get here before, did they?" Finn comforted Maffeo.

"Let's go. ”

The two then judged their position based on the sound coming from the main road, and there was no doubt that they were back on the right path after confirming it. Although he was concerned about the strange feeling in front of that courtyard, Maffeo knew that Lotus couldn't be there.

On the other side, Uma and Mirna had left everyone far behind, so much so that they had become a row of black dots on the horizon in their sight. On the main path of the second-spine temple with a gentle, almost sloping slope, any creature that does not carry a disrupting dispenser will be transformed into an octopus by Lotus in an instant.

At first, Uma objected to Maffeo and Fian's decision to reach Rotes' location by the other way, as he didn't think it made much sense, and the odds of two men against Lotus were much lower than four against Rotes. But later, after the unanimous persuasion of Marcos and Karl, Uma agreed to their decision.

In fact, when Maffeo and Finn reached the area that was gradually opening up and were able to see the huge silhouette, Uma and Mirna were still blocked on the main road by the followers of the second spine and the laser cannon. Without the help of the people, it would have been much more difficult for them to move forward smoothly.

Uma quickly stretched out her right hand into the air, and at the same time, her left hand condensed her magic power to form an ice sword, blocking a dagger attack from a believer. Then the ice blade condensed in his right hand was launched by him, hitting the laser faucet cannon in the distance with a "bang" sound. Milna, on the other hand, is a little further behind, bombarding the monster with the fused elements. Uma had provided enough cover for Mirna almost alone, so he already had some extra wounds of varying sizes.

The red-haired Yaksha Alice, who was hiding behind the believer, suddenly jumped to his feet, his whole body trembling with rage and desire to kill. Uma was shocked, and he didn't have time to look up to see what Alice was doing next, because danger was approaching fast. After dodging Allist's first attack, Uma swung a slash at Alice with the ice sword in his hand that had not yet disappeared.

However, his movements froze in mid-air. This made Allist, who had turned around in time, look a little overwhelmed for a moment, although he only stayed on its hideous face for two seconds before he swung his claws at what he saw as stupid Uma. Uma moved again at this time, and the ice sword in his hand exuded a piercing chill. He bent down and let Alex's claws pounce into the air, and then he barely glanced at the other man, and stabbed the ice sword straight above his head, Alice's screams echoing over Umma's head. The blow also announced the fate of the condensed ice sword, which gradually dissolved into fine transparent ice crystals.

As the monsters gradually decreased, so did Mirna's attack power. When the last monster vanished into the magic she had unleashed, her hands hung limply. "I'm so tired...... she gasped slightly, her hands on her knees, the battle had taken so much of her mana that she thought she should drink a little potion to replenish her mana.

"Are you alright, Mirna?" Uma walked over, though he wasn't much better himself, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.

"I think our magic will run out before we meet Lotus. Mirna responded.

Uma shook her head and said in distress. "I didn't expect Lotus to gather so many believers and monsters to resist, and the number was far greater than we imagined. But I can tell that it's almost over. ”

"Yes, whether it's weapons or believers, the number of each batch is slowly decreasing. Mirna pulled two potions out of her magic pouch and tossed one of them to Uma. "Yes, a potion to replenish mana, though Dean Saran and Teacher Gillens have been warning the apprentices not to use it too much. Although it can replenish mana, it is easy to disrupt the user's affinity for magic, because the nature of magic is different for everyone. Thank me, though, because I know you didn't bring anything. She crossed her hands on her hips and raised her head slightly, looking right.

"So, why did you go out of your way to explain to me what I knew?" asked Umma.

Mirna angrily raised her leg and kicked him in the leg. "Because you're a forgetful fool!"

"Hmm......" Uma clutched her calf. "Do you want a cripple to face Rotus?"

"Oops, sorry, sorry, sorry. Mirna immediately shook her hands, indicating that she didn't mean to.

"Forget it, this trip won't be easy anyway, so it doesn't matter if you add a little difficulty to me......" Uma drank the potion that replenished his mana, and honestly, he didn't like the smell of what seemed to be a mixture of many unknown herbs, so there was a look of disgust on his face. And Mirna, she had to pinch her nose to get herself to drink the potion, or she would spit it out.

"Great, wonderful......" Uma tossed the empty potion bottle to the ground, feeling like his sense of taste was about to fail.

"Let's go, Uma. If those two guys arrive first, they'll need our help. Mirna, who had reacted in the same way as Uma, beckoned forward.

Although the two of them took the same steps forward, the nervousness quickly spread to all corners of the body. The word grasp has never appeared in the hearts of the two of them, and no word can describe the mood of the two at this time. To put it more appropriately, although the two were nervous, their hearts and minds were almost blank. As we get closer to the apostles, we can't even think about the worst......
