"Da-da-da-da-da-"

In the excessively dead passage, the footsteps of the two people were so clear, so distinct, and even echoed.

Rig and Liz followed behind the leprechaun and the three-legged crow, walking forward step by step.

Overhead, the ball of light was still emitting light, illuminating the path under the feet of the two.

It's just that this part of the road doesn't seem to be easy to walk.

"It's hot......"

At some point, Liz was sweating profusely, causing her to stir up the neckline of her trench coat.

Rig accidentally caught a glimpse of the beautiful scenery under the neckline, and felt like his heart was almost on fire.

"The temperature inside this labyrinth is so high, and the deeper you go, the higher it gets."

Rig took off his trench coat and unbuttoned his neckline to cool himself down.

When Liz saw it, she hurriedly did the same, also took off her trench coat, and loosened her collar, revealing a large area of spring light, so that Li Ge didn't know where to put her eyes.

"Why is it so hot here?"

Liz was not at all conscious of her charm, tilted her head, and asked such questions.

"Who knows." Li Ge took a deep breath and said, "Maybe it's because there's some heat source here, or maybe it's because we're unknowingly going to the bottom of the desert. ”

At the moment, there is absolutely no way to tell where he is in a state.

The temple labyrinth was very large and very long, and it had been two hours since he and Liz had entered it together, but they were still walking through the labyrinth, and they couldn't see anything outside of the labyrinth's passages.

Because of the boldness of the artist, although Li Ge activated two guiding spells at the same time, he followed the three-legged crow more and took the shortest path that could lead to the heart of the labyrinth.

But it was the shortest road to take, and the two of them still couldn't get out of the maze, and the same maze passages in front of them were all the same, and there were several forks in the road at the end, which made people dizzy.

"I'm really skeptical, in such a labyrinth, how did the people who came in here get out before?"

That's how Rieg came up with the idea.

Then, the answer to this question, Rieger actually learned from Liz's mouth.

"They must have used a magic item called the Return of the Crystal." Liz said: "It is a magic prop that can make the footprints left by the user of the item appear in 24 hours, although it is not very precious and rare, but it can come in handy in some specific occasions, so it is very popular in the market for some people who are wandering all year round." ”

"I see." Rieg looked at Liz with some surprise and said, "How do you know?" ”

"Sister Marilyn told me." Lizzy smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sister Marilyn taught me a lot of things, especially what you need to know to travel. ”

It seems that the maid is worried about her cheap sister.

Rig thought silently in his heart.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Rieger stopped.

"Master?"

Lizzie subconsciously stopped and looked at Rieg with a puzzled expression.

Rig didn't look at Liz, but stared ahead, so that Liz followed Rieg's gaze and looked ahead.

Liz was taken aback by this sight.

"Uh......h Woohoo......"

I saw that in a faint cry, a young girl appeared in the corner of the labyrinth passage, leaning against the wall of the passage, hiding her face and crying.

Her feet were red, oozing blood, staining the ground red.

Evidently the girl was wounded, and as if she had been left behind by her companions, and wept helplessly, so that I felt sorry for her.

"Y-Are you alright?"

Seeing this scene, the sympathy in Liz's heart was immediately aroused, and she subconsciously wanted to run over.

Liz had only run two steps before she was dragged back by Riger.

"Don't go."

Rig said this in a voice that was so calm that it was even a little unforgiving.

"Why?"

Liz was stunned.

"She's not human."

Rieg spoke succinctly.

"No, not human?"

Liz didn't understand.

"Woo...... Woowoo woo ......"

The injured girl cried louder just right, as if emphasizing her helplessness and pain, which almost overflowed people's sympathy.

It's a pity that the other party doesn't know that in front of Riege's transparent world, its true colors have been seen through.

In Rige's transparent world, the girl had no internal organs, no bones, not even blood vessels or flesh, but only a layer of skin.

Can this be human?

This is clearly a monster!

Moreover, Liz was attracted to all the attention of the girl's crying, and did not find a single detail, but Rieger did.

That is, around the girl's body, there are pieces of bones.

That's human bones.

The breastbones, leg bones, hand bones, skulls, phalanges, and so on were scattered around the maiden like trophies.

This is not only a monster, but also a monster that only eats people!

"[Magic Enhancement Fireball]."

Without saying a word, Rig unleashed his magic, creating a huge fireball at the tip of his outstretched fingertip and launching it.

“————”

At this moment, the girl's crying stopped abruptly.

It lowered its face-hiding hand, revealing a face that was completely devoid of features.

That face made Lizzy gasp, and she only felt a chill and tremble in her heart.

"Bang!"

At the same time, the girl rose from the ground, and the ground under her body also rose rapidly, causing tree roots to emerge, and a tree also drilled out of the wall behind her.

The girl's back is connected to the tree, like a doll controlled by the tree, or one of the branches of the tree turns into the shape of a girl, attracting prey to approach.

"Bang!!"

The huge fireball slammed into the tree's body, but it was blocked by the wooden shield made of branches thrown out by the opponent, and exploded into sparks.

The edges of the branches were suddenly caught up and burned, but the fire was quickly extinguished again, and the end result was only a few scorched marks on the branches.

"What a humanoid tree monster!"

Rig narrowed his eyes and spat out the words.

Humanoid Treants.

This is a very famous monster.

They are famous because they are capable of humanoids.

Their branches can imitate the shape of creatures they have seen, so as to attract the appearance of the same creatures to approach, and when the opponent is completely defenseless, the branches penetrate into the opponent's body, and devour the opponent's flesh and blood, which is a very evil, very bloody, and very cunning monster.

In the wild, I don't know how many people let down their guard because of the ability to mimic the shape of creatures, and after approaching each other without thinking, they finally died tragically at the hands of the other party.

Many people hate and fear this monster, which eventually leads to this monster becoming one of the monsters that the world recognizes as one of the last monsters they want to encounter in the wild.

Now, the monster appeared in front of Rige, in front of Liz.

Liz also recognized the humanoid tree, and remembered the rumors of those who died tragically at the hands of the humanoid tree, and her little face turned pale in an instant.

Just now, if Rig hadn't stopped her, she might have been like those people, unsuspecting by the branches of the humanoid tree monsters, sucking the flesh dry, right?

The thought of that fate made Liz terrified.

"[Magic Triple Enhancement Fireball]."

At this moment, Rig unleashed his magic again, shooting three huge fireballs in one go, one after another on the wooden shield woven from the branches of the humanoid tree monster.

The successive bombardments of the fireballs caused the wooden shield to burn directly, but it did not burn it out, and it still only left a charred mark on it, and nothing was done.

"There's something wrong with this humanoid tree."

Rig sensed this.

Although the humanoid tree monster is a monster that everyone fears, its own strength is actually not strong, so it has evolved this ability to trick hunters into approaching, in order to make up for the lack of strength to complete the hunt.

Moreover, since the humanoid tree monster is a tree, it will be afraid of fire, and once it is attacked by flames, it will be destroyed in three or two clicks.

Generally speaking, a mature humanoid tree monster is the strongest and not stronger than a swordsman, and the strength of the swordsman level is enough to defeat it, and if it is a person who is good at fire attacks, it can be successfully defeated without a swordsman.

But the humanoid tree monster in front of him is obviously wrong, not only is it not as afraid of fire as rumored, but its defense is also amazingly strong, and even eating so many fireballs from Li Ge is actually just a tree branch being burned black, which makes no sense at all.

"Boom!"

Unbeknownst to Rige, the humanoid tree monster had subverted the world's perception of it in Rige's mind, and reacted immediately after blocking Rige's fireball attack.

With a roar, the ground broke inch by inch, and thick tree roots came out of the ground one after another, like a python in a state of rage, instantly filling the entire labyrinth passage.

They pushed forward against the walls, the earth, and the air, like a meat grinder that crushed everything, covering in the direction of Rieg and Liz.

"[Strongest Magic: Stone Wall]."

Rig pressed one hand to the ground, and the ground in front of him immediately bulged, and a wall of earth rose in front of the surging roots.

"Boom-"

The roots of the tree that were squeezing everything suddenly hit the stone wall, first with an extremely muffled sound, which made the stone wall tremble violently, and then squeezed the stone wall into cracks.

"[Magic Triple Enhancement - Present Break]."

Seeing this scene, a cold glint flashed in Li Ge's eyes, and he suddenly swung out three slashes that cut off the space.

In an instant, an invisible slash cut through the stone wall, severed the roots of the trees, and cut everything in its path, causing countless roots to fall to the ground as stumps.

"Poof!"

After a while, the giant body of the humanoid tree monster was also slashed by the spatial blade, and it broke off on the spot.
