Chapter 151: The Tunnel Labyrinth (End)
After Lu Bin and the others left through the passage carved in the rock wall, the adventurers and mercenaries who followed their footsteps here arrived at the Minotaur Labyrinth belatedly, looking at the messy battle traces in the ruined walls, everyone was speechless.

Not long ago, a shadow creature that was not afraid of physical attacks, dragging its body that kept emitting billowing black smoke, suddenly appeared in front of their eyes, and rushed up and hit without saying a word, only to kill two ill-prepared companions with its horns as soon as it struck.
Even if the adventurers around reacted and flexibly used various alchemy weapons, they were only slightly restrained and could not be severely damaged. One by one, the companions around him fell under the giant horns of the shadow creatures, and if it weren't for the support of the faith in their hearts, the team would have collapsed long ago.
After a quarter of an hour, the distant labyrinth suddenly erupted with a earth-shaking tremor, and then the shadow creature lost its core and struggled to maintain its form, and everyone could feel its panic at this time.
Then, the surviving adventurers saw the shadow creature suddenly bow down, stretch out its three-fingered claws the thickness of a turnip, brutally pull out the still fresh hearts from the corpses of several companions, and hurriedly flee to the upper hall.
Before they could react, a crow-like black shadow suddenly flew towards the ground, and looking at the direction it came from, it was clear where the maze was located.
"Looks like the battle over there is over!"
A highly experienced adventurer sighed and put the big sword in his scabbard with both hands, and the people around him couldn't help but wipe away their tears and simply restrain them as they looked at their fallen companions who could never get up again.
Friends are gone, life still has to go on, the life of an adventurer is one battle after another, unless you are lucky enough to earn a large amount of pension money, otherwise die on the road to adventure, this is a fate sooner or later.
At the same time, the Abyss Demon, whose main body had fallen and only had a shadow clone, quietly left the abandoned mining area and came to the upper hall, where more adventurers and mercenaries gathered, but it had already heard the footsteps of the pursuers behind it, and was busy preparing to leave.
However, the shadow clone only had half the strength of the body in the weakened period, and the fall of the body caused it to become a source of water, and its strength fell again, and it was no longer an opponent of a veteran adventurer, and every move was consuming the little source left.
Only by escaping to a safe place and transforming the human heart into a demonic core through a depravity ritual can we create a new carrier for this shadow body, which is not even a doppelganger.
However, it underestimated the malice under the cover of human greed, and when the shadow clone of the giant axe bull demon appeared in the abandoned temple of the dwarves with a thick bloody aura, it was discovered by adventurers at the first time.
Experienced adventurers immediately abandon their ordinary swords and greet them with weapons crafted by alchemists, enchanted daggers, and elemental-infused arrows.
"Bloodthirsty Blade Bled" came to this level, and found that he couldn't intervene at all, so he simply crossed his arms and looked at the arrogant and ignorant Shadow Bull Demon, which was torn apart little by little by the fangs of the adventurer.
At the same time, Lu Bin had already seen this scene with the help of his summoned creatures, and at the same time confirmed that the target had completely died through the Book of the Traveling Mage.
"It's going to end the fight, it's useless, it's a waste of my expectations. ”
Although Lu Bin knew the passage to the Storm Mountains through the scarab beetle that had explored the path earlier, he couldn't explain the reason well, anyway, the shield-wielding old dwarf had already discovered something, so he happily followed behind.
This team quietly left the tunnel network to form the dungeon, and continued to embark on the "Dwarf's Journey Home to Visit Relatives" without stopping, the original two-core team, after the battle not long ago, the dominance has been subtly transferred to the hands of "Mage Rez".
Lu Bin was not surprised by this at all, after all, Olek Tyrese's combat performance was a little flawed, perhaps because of his lack of experience against the enemy, it was difficult to convince everyone, and the advantage of being young and having a strong affinity also became a weakness at this time.
After three days of walking in the dark and only sunshine and mushroom illumination of the mountainside passage, the team led by Lu Bin also took a mine cart and galloped a long distance on the complex mine tracks.
Finally, when the smile on Oryk Tyrese's face was also tarnished due to the lack of sunlight, Lu Bin and the others finally arrived at the Ironforge Fortress established by the dwarves, one of the satellite cities of the Stormwind Kingdom.
Lu Bin frowned, when he saw that the Iron Fort Fort, which was more complex than a human fortress and a fortress, was full of traces of war destruction, and the charred black stones between the broken walls silently recounted the tragic battle.
"Be careful! The concentration of negative energy in the vicinity is very high, and it may give birth to terrifying high-level undead. ”
Oric Tyrese had belligerent blood in his veins, and he was a little sluggish after a few days of uneventful travel, but when he saw the ruined Ironforge Fort, the dangerous aura looming around him reinvigorated him.
This scene, in Lu Bin's eyes, was really surprised by the transformation of this blonde boy.
The shield-wielding old dwarf still had memories of his youth, looking up at the ironforge castle that was swallowed by darkness not far away, with only simple outline lines to hang onto, and at this time he recalled it with tears in his eyes.
"I remember that there was a large smelting furnace in the Ironforge Fort, and the molten iron that melted into juice emitted a dazzling orange light, and it was not illuminated by oil lamps, and the whole fortress was like daylight on the surface. The air was filled with the smell of sweat, and the sound of ironwork was ringing in my ears. The merchant of mankind can only fall asleep by stuffing cotton into his ears, but it is the best lullaby for us......"
Lu Bin waited until he heard the old dwarf's recounting of the past, and sighed after a long time, and the other two young dwarves, who did not have this experience, recalled that their parents had said the same grand occasion at that time, and they were also embarrassed to hear it at this time.
At this time when he was a little sad to indulge in the past, people who spoil the scenery would always make trouble, and Lu Bin immediately found that from the ruined ruins of the Iron Furnace Castle, as deep as the dark corners of the tomb, the undead creatures who were given a second life by the dense negative energy smelled the scent of the living, and began to walk out of the lair towards them, with staggering steps.
In the blink of an eye, the Iron Fort became the home of the undead, among which were silver-haired dark elves, whose hands were like scorpion claws opening and closing, and their rotten cheeks revealed sharp black teeth underneath, which seemed to be soaked in negative energy and infected with poison.
There are also carrion spiders that are no bigger than two-wheeled carriages, dragging bloated vesicles, which are full of spider eggs that have died before hatching, but after the catalysis of negative energy, they have all successfully conceived and matured, becoming part of the broken body of the carrion spider.
There are also lizards with saddles on their backs, and the giant tails that are broken into several pieces are only connected by flesh and skin; bear goblins dragging maces in one hand, with a thick back that is tattered and exposed to their backbones, grinning and revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth; and more goblins, in Lu Bin's opinion, they are much better than those poor ghosts in the Dry Bone Wasteland, not only have arms and shields cast of pig iron, but also leather armor, war knives, chain hammers and other weapons, and the withered head of the prey tied around their waists, which is their few remaining trophies.
"I don't seem to see dwarves in the undead, so it's better to be free to do it. ”
Oric Tyrese seemed to hear Lu Bin's heart, and grabbed the blitzkrieg hammer with all his might, with a look of eagerness, he had been suffocated in the past few days, and he was trying to use a hearty battle to make a strong move for the next step into the dark region.
The shield-wielding old dwarf quickly came back to his senses, wiped away the tears that had covered his eyes with the back of his hand, and saw clearly the undead creatures that appeared in front of him, and suddenly his eyes turned red with anger.
"It is these evil people in the underground who have launched a tidal wave of attacks on our kingdom, and one fortress after another has fallen, and many tribesmen have been plundered by them, especially a large number of women and children, who have been taken to the dark regions where they cannot see their fingers, and live like slaves. ”
His angry accusation immediately struck a chord with the feelings of the two compatriots, and the triangular battle formation was immediately formed, and the dwarves were to join the battle.
The aristocratic girl Nina Wild stood firmly by Lu Bin's side, and as for Windranger Aurelia who wanted to help, considering the wishes of the "Guardian of Elondale", she gestured to the "Legendary Mage Lord Rez" with her eyes.
Lu Bin nodded lightly, stretched out his hand to summon two floating shields, and the Bloodstone Golem was immediately in place: "Don't worry!"
