Chapter 267: Lilith Reappears

Modi asked, "Since you're a black magician, you should know how to run this magic array, right?"

I looked at the spinning circle and replied, "This magic circle is already working, but it doesn't have enough energy to support it to open that door."

Modi said, "I really want to know what's inside, after all, I'm here for it, and I'm going to go all the way here!"

Aaron said, "As an adventurer, exploration is the most fun thing to do, but ...... It's also a dangerous thing."

I could see the worry on his face, and at the same time he was wary, but he was still curious, and like Modi, he wanted to open the door and take a look.

The bronze door, which could not be seen through with the eyes of the elves, piqued my curiosity even more.

What kind of stuff is going to be preserved in it?

So, I squatted down and put my hand on the circle...

Urging the dark energy in his body, a stream of black qi gushed out from his arm, rushing towards the center of the circle like an ant.

Soon, the circle began to spin faster, and the Elven Eye observed that an invisible force that could not be observed with the ordinary naked eye was condensing from the circle, turning into a large hand, and prying the door.

The door made a "click" sound and was slowly moving in both directions.

"Great, the door is open!" Modi's excited voice.

Just in case, Aaron drew his iron sword and aimed it in front of him, looking ready to attack at any moment.

I tried my best to channel my magic power into the circle, and with the powerful dark energy in my body, it seemed easier for me to operate it.

The door opened a gap that could be entered by a single person, and I intensified my efforts to open it completely with a magic circle.

Something unexpected happened.

The circle stopped spinning, like a jammed gear, and I could feel a palpable resistance.

The door didn't move, and through the gap, it was completely impossible to see what was inside, and it was pitch black.

"Be careful, someone is watching us!"

I sensed the smell of black magic behind me, and I opened my mouth to warn, observing my surroundings.

The Elven Eye peered through the wall, and I saw a black figure hiding behind the pillar in the corner.

She quickly rushed towards a few of us.

It was a girl who had been eroded by black magic, and as far as I could remember, she was supposed to be a member of Ax's team and an archer.

Moreover, she is the one who opened the mechanism and made us fall from the temple into this labyrinth!

"Give this guy to me, don't rob me!"

Modi drew his iron sword and strode towards the girl.

The girl waved her claws, and the nails on them instantly grew and became sharp weapons.

Modi slashed at it, his nails colliding with the blades of his sword, but with a metallic clang.

"Damn, I have so much strength!"

His arms trembled and he strode back.

The girl's attacks followed, leaving Modi overwhelmed.

The shadow of the sword in Modi's hand flickered, and even though the sword move was sharp, he was beaten back by the girl's undisciplined attack.

If it weren't for the armor on his body, the girl's attacks just now would have scratched him to death.

Seeing that Modi is invincible, he is about to be knocked down by the other party.

Aaron struck in time and slashed out an extremely fast sword, and his body turned into a rainbow of light and passed past the girl.

He put away his sword, and when he turned back, the girl had already fallen.

I have always recognized his strength, thinking that just a puppet controlled by dark magic, it should be impossible to beat a sect-level swordsman like Aaron, right?

Just as I was about to continue to operate the circle, I saw the girl on the ground, her body squirming, and then catapulted violently, pounced on me in mid-air.

I was caught off guard by this scene, and with the magic power in my hand transmitting to the magic circle, I couldn't react for a while.

Just as the girl's claws were about to touch me, I felt a kick in the back, and I fell to the ground with my head tilted, just in time to dodge the fatal blow

It's Aaron.

I saw that it was he who appeared behind me and helped me.

The girl was cut off by his sword and fell to the ground with a thud.

After doing this, he whispered, "Look at you if you die this time."

I was about to say thank you to him, thinking that if it weren't for him, I'm afraid my throat would have been cut open by the claws, and blood would have flowed dripping with blood.

Modi's exclamation was heard, "Aaron, watch your back!"

Aaron turned his head suddenly, and was hit by a blue beam of light that popped out of the gate, flying five meters away on the spot, lying motionless on the ground.

"Aaron!"

I hurried to him to check on the situation.

I was relieved to find that he was fine, and that the Elven Eye had observed that the internal organs were fine.

He fainted, and he couldn't wake up no matter how much he screamed.

"The door is closed!" Modi's voice.

I looked at the bronze door and saw that without my support, the circle stopped working, and the door was closed.

The blue beam of light popped out of the gate.

I said angrily to Modi, "What if the door is closed, it's all your fault, you brought us to this place, and lied that there is something here that can replenish the energy of the sound transmission stone!"

Modi was very anxious and stamped his foot at me, "I didn't mean that, it's not just that the door is closed."

Surprised, I subconsciously turned my head to look at the two doors at the entrance to the secret room.

I don't know when it started, but the door there is actually closed!

I was a little overwhelmed, and the shaking of the ground made me feel like a thorn in the back.

According to the routine of some tomb robberies in previous lives, when you enter the ruins or ancient tombs, there is a chance that there will be a collapse inside.

Apparently, now that the ruins are beginning to self-destruct, we must have accidentally touched the mechanism inside.

Seeing the shaking getting more and more intense, my perspective began to shake.

Hurrying to find the exit, I saw behind the wall a behemoth approaching the wall through the perspective function of the Elven Eye.

With a "boom", the wall was smashed open.

The appearance of the giant monster shook my heart, and I quickly pulled out my wand and prepared to attack.

It was a humanoid monster with a wolf's head, ten meters long, and a gray scythe in his hand, like a desert reaper who harvested life.

"Modi, let's hurry up...... Damn, he actually ran away!"

I was going to call Modi to help deal with the giant monster that suddenly appeared in front of me.

only to find that he had disappeared without a trace.

I guess I escaped from somewhere else.

What an unrighteous fellow, coward!

Huge boulders, because of the vibration, rolled down from above.

I carried Aaron on my back, dodged the scythe that came at me, and hurried to find a way out.

I don't know where Modi found the exit, so soon it disappeared.

Now there's a giant monster in the chamber, and I'm trying to find the way out and dodge his attacks and the rocks falling from above.

If you are not careful, you may die on the spot.

After a bit of whirlwind, I realized that the giant monster was very slow to react, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to dodge his attacks.

"Thunder!"

A bolt of lightning shot out of my wand and struck the giant monster.

The giant monster was wearing a set of inferior armor on the outside, and the lightning struck on it, instantly turning the armor into scorching red pieces.

To my surprise, the giant monster didn't seem to feel pain, and even though I had punched a hole in its body, it still attacked me.

I can't stay like this any longer, or I'll be trapped here sooner or later.

Instead of doing anything, I chose to use the extremely lethal dark magic.

The dark energy was condensed in my hand, and I seized the opportunity to take advantage of the giant monster's busy pulling out the scythe stuck in the wall

Kung Fu of the knife.

I used black magic to successfully finish him off.

The dark energy struck him and began to spread rapidly, eroding his entire body, before turning into a violent explosion of energy.

The explosion shook me to the ground.

I took Aaron to dodge the falling boulder in a panic, and at this time, I found a crypt in the corner.

It was a hidden passage, and if it weren't for the wave of air from the explosion that pushed away the dirt buried on it, I wouldn't have thought of it under my feet.

At the moment when the chamber was completely buried, I jumped in with Aaron in time.

As I thought, this is indeed a passageway.

After gliding for some distance, the passage began to go upwards and became straight.

There was a sudden chill under my feet, and when I looked down, I noticed that the water was rushing out of nowhere, and it was rapidly filling the passage.

It's not very wide, and if I don't get back to the surface safely soon, Aaron and I will both die and drown.

I'm a landlubber and can't swim, so I summoned the Moon Dragon Warframe.

At the moment of summoning, a large amount of water erupted from the passage, covering me.

Fortunately, the Moon Warframe has a diving mode, and I summoned it in time, and took Aaron like a swimming fish, swimming down the passage.

Thank God.

I managed to get back to the surface with Aaron, and found a lake connected to the top of the passage.

It seems that the maze should have a self-destruct pattern, which, when triggered, floods the connected lake with a large amount of water, completely submerging it.

It took me a long time to swim up from the bottom of the lake, and if it weren't for the Moon Dragon Armor's diving function, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago.

When I came ashore, I found that Aaron was in a terrible condition.

He was originally Caucasian, but now his face was as pale as a piece of paper, and his lips were still purple.

I realized that he was flooded, so I immediately unbuttoned his shirt and started CPR and rescue breaths for him.

Anyway, how did this guy's body become so soft, especially his chest, I wonder if he is wearing a sponge pad.

"Ahem!"

It took him a long time to cough up the water in his lungs and his breathing became steady.

I wiped the water and sweat from my forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, what is this?"

At this time, I noticed that Aaron's chest, like a balloon with an inflated balloon, was rapidly expanding.

I reached out blankly, ready to check.

A shouting interrupted my movements.

"Let go of that girl, you damn pervert!"

Looking up, I saw a red figure.

It was a beautiful girl, and when I saw each other's faces clearly, my heart trembled.

"Li...... Lilith?"
