Everyone was silent for a while and then continued to set off, because everyone's mood was not good, so the atmosphere after that became dull again.

There were more and more traces of battle seen along the way, and the corpses left behind by the thorn barrier were also one after another, and it is estimated that at least half of them died along this road.

After some time, when Dio felt that he should be close to the ground, he jerked his head up, his eyes wandering around, and he seemed to hear some soft buzzing sound.

"What sound?"

After a few moments, the others sensed something was wrong and stopped to look around.

There was a soft hiss.

Dio felt something fall on his hand, he looked down, it was a little dust, a slight pause, he raised the torch in his hand to shine on the top of the passage, and saw that there were cobweb-like broken cracks on it, and the dust fell from the cracks.

Seeing this, Dio's eyes froze, and he shouted at the others: "Run, hurry, this place is going to collapse!" He picked up Anantis, who had difficulty walking, and rushed forward first.

Pomorro also reacted quickly, followed Dio and ran forward, and it didn't take long to overtake Dio, who was holding the person, to the front, while Lilia pulled Melissa and was in the third echelon.

The five of them kept running forward, and the dust on the top fell more and more frequently, and soon there were small pebbles mixed inside, and the original small sound turned into a rumbling sound, and the collapse here has entered the countdown.

Left, right, left, left, right......

The group kept turning around along the extension of the passage, the walls on both sides were always monotonous gray-black, and if it weren't for the rocks and gravel falling overhead, they would have even had the illusion that they would never be able to get out of the maze.

Fortunately, after two or three minutes, they finally ran to the end of the passage, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

It is a hollow environment in the heart of a mountain, with a stone wall with no roof on one side and a bottomless abyss on the other, and a path embedded in the stone wall, which is the only passage here.

It's obviously far from the environment of the mines, but it is not known which part of the Mannheim Mountains it belongs to.

The five of them walked onto the cliff path without stopping, and the sound of the crumbling behind them kept whipping them, and they were not allowed to hesitate at all.

The cliff path is not completely flat, and from time to time there are fang-like parts protruding from the side of the path and spanning the abyss, like a giant spear piercing the cliff.

Dio walked on the edge of the cliff and looked down, only to see that it was pitch black below, with a faint black mist rolling and a cold wind. He kicked a skull-sized stone down the road at random, and the stone quickly disappeared with the sound of colliding with the stone wall, and it was not long before it was inaudible.

"It's so deep. Dio thought to himself, walking more cautiously.

This cliff path is about hundreds of meters long, and after a while, the group has already advanced to about half of the position, and can vaguely see that there is a little light at the entrance of the hole at the other end of the path, which looks like it is the exit, which immediately refreshes everyone's spirits.

But at this moment, the entire mountain wall shook suddenly, as if it was another earthquake.

"All close to the stone wall!"

Dio shouted, putting Anatis down and letting her cling to the stone wall with him and grasping the bulges on the stone wall to fix them.

Others immediately did so.

The tremor lasted for more than ten seconds before it slowly stopped, at which point Dio turned his head to look back and found that he could no longer see the hole they had come from, only a faint cloud of floating dust, and then slowly dissipated.

The others also saw this scene, and their faces couldn't help but show a look of joy, if they hadn't run out of the passage at this time, then they would have been buried alive by now.

"Alright, let's go, let's get out quickly. ”

Dio greeted Lilia and Melissa, who were hugging each other, and prepared to move on.

Lilia turned her head to look at Dio, as if to say something, but before she could speak, the stone wall beneath her feet suddenly collapsed, and she and Melissa slid down the stone wall towards the bottom of the cliff.

Seeing that the two girls were about to fall into the abyss, fortunately Dio was paying attention to Lilia's side, at the first moment of collapse, he had already rushed over without thinking and jumped down directly, holding the hands of a girl with both hands, his feet also caught the cliff protruding stone that he had seen in advance, and left the two girls in the air.

Lilia watched as her crosssword fell from under her feet with a flash of fluorescence and some rubble, and quickly disappeared from view, and she looked up at her brother who had taken the risk of grabbing her, and a trace of mixed emotions flashed in her eyes. Melissa, on the other hand, was so frightened that her little face turned pale and she didn't dare to look at the abyss below, but she didn't call out obediently, but just looked at Dior timidly, her eyes full of hope.

"Lilia, I'll throw you on first, you're ready!" shouted Dio, feeling the spot between his feet shaking slightly, knowing that time was running out.

"Okay, I'm ready. Lilia nodded firmly, indicating that she had no problems.

"Start counting down, three, two, one, ah!"

Dio shouted, and the muscles under his skin quickly concentrated on his waist and abdomen, and then burst out, throwing Lilia towards Anatis. Lilia's sense of balance was very good, and after rolling twice in the air, she landed firmly beside Anandis, grabbed the bulge of the stone wall, and fixed her body.

"I'm alright, throw Melissa over!" Lilia stood still, making a gesture to pick up someone.

"Okay, three, two, one, ah!"

Dio shouted again, and threw Melissa towards where Lilia was, and almost at the same time, he also used his strength to roll over and return to the cliff path.

At the same time that Lilia caught Melissa, the stone pillar that Dior had previously clamped and borrowed could no longer withstand the force acting on it, and broke from the roots, and then collapsed.

"Run, it's not safe here, it could collapse at any time!" Dior looked around, and saw that Pomorro had run a long way, apparently never stopped, and he hurriedly shouted to the three girls.

Everyone hurriedly continued to run forward, and although the next road kept collapsing, fortunately, what happened directly around everyone never appeared again, so that they finally crossed this dangerous road.

Now their position is that the cliff has become a natural platform, about twenty or thirty meters long and wide, compared to the cliff path in front of which is less than two meters wide, this place is too spacious, just for everyone to stop and catch their breath.

This time Dior and Pomorro each sat alone on one side, and the three girls sat together, probably because the previous Pomorro only cared about his own performance compared to Dior's performance of trying to save people, so that the circle of the three girls was very close to Dior, and a little far away from Pomorro, from a distance, it was like the four of them were in a circle, and Pomorro was independent.

"I'm sorry, the sword you gave me fell off. ”

Estimating that Dio's visit to them regardless of his own safety just now had an effect, Lilia hesitated for a moment on the side, and then walked over with some twists and apologized to him.

"Nothing. Dio smiled and shook his head, "The most important thing is that people are okay, and you can buy another one after the sword is gone." He looked at his sister and continued, "Of course, you have to pay for it yourself." ”

Lilia, who was usually replaced, would have expressed disdain for Dio's last words, but this time she didn't refute anything, but was silent for a while, and then whispered: "Also, thank you just now." Then she tried to turn back to her companions.

Then Dio stopped her: "Wait. ”

"Huh?" Lilia stopped and looked at him suspiciously,

"You take this for self-defense. Dio took a dagger from his waist and handed it to Lilia.

Without speaking, Melissa took the dagger and turned around directly to get together with Melissa and Anatis, without looking back.

Dior smiled indifferently.

He was relaxed on the surface, but in reality he had been watching his surroundings with full attention, his muscles tensed and ready to attack. Somehow, he always felt something uncomfortable in his heart, as if some danger was approaching him, and coupled with the consideration of the enemy who did not show up, his spirit could not be relaxed.

It's a pity that the pendant sent by Maya seems to have failed, and Lilia's sword has just fallen off the cliff due to the collapse, so that the two most effective detectors have been lost, and there is no other way to detect it except for her own senses.

The sense of danger became more and more intense, and Dio kept looking around, but he didn't find anything unusual in either the place he came from or the direction he was about to go.

"Brother Dior, your face looks so pale, did something happen, or did you hurt somewhere?" Probably noticing Dio's frequent movement of looking left and right, Melissa walked over and asked cautiously.

Dior said with a faint smile: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little worried, don't worry, it's okay, by the way, you must be together before you go out, don't be separated again." ”

"yes, I see. Melissa nodded repeatedly, and then said with a remorseful face, "It's all my fault, and I killed Sister Belin Deon." ”

"Maybe that's her fate. Dior comforted.

"No, I should have stopped her so she wouldn't die...... Who knows, the monster suddenly jumped off the top, and we shot desperately, but we couldn't hit it......" Melissa muttered to herself in some distraction, obviously the scene hit her hard.

"Okay, it's okay. Dio continued to speak comfortingly, when suddenly Melissa said a word that made his mind shine.

Top?

He looked up suddenly, and the firelight shone all over the gray-white uneven walls, and the upper part was shrouded in thick darkness.

It was impenetrable darkness, but as soon as his gaze was on it, his instincts immediately told him that something was watching him from within the darkness, and that something in the darkness was aware of it almost at the same time.

A white shadow flashed.

"Be careful!"
