Truth be told, Demont had a glimmer of hope for Leo, but he didn't fully believe that he would succeed, and he was mentally prepared for the worst: once all the skeleton guards arrived, he would lead the others to retreat beyond the barrier.

But now, Leo really only attracted a skeleton guard back, which immediately gave him a boost of confidence, and beckoned the people behind him to prepare to attack.

Moments later, the skeleton guard chased Leo into the low-lying terrain between the two knolls.

At the sound of Demon's order, several people rushed up, according to the established way, chopping the legs and slashing the heads, and after just a few minutes, the unlucky skeleton guards were completely put down.

When Demont remembered that he should arrange for Leo to continue, he found that the other party had already secretly left and chased after the skeleton guard.

"It would be great if the teammates in the future could be at this level. He said to himself.

At this time, a terrible scream came.

Demon's heart trembled, and he quickly looked over, only to realize that it was one of Murafa's men who was hit by the soul impact of the skeleton guard, stumbled a few times, and then was trampled into a meat patty.

Of course, he didn't have any sympathy for those people, as long as it wasn't Leo's accident.

Seeing the death of one of his companions, Murafa's other subordinates completely lost their cool and ran towards the exit of the barrier with a howl, refusing to turn back no matter how Murafa shouted.

The wisdom of the skeleton guard is not high, and when he saw the living people in front of him separate, he instinctively chased in the direction of the crowd.

Seeing that the good situation was about to change again, Demon scolded in his heart, but there was no way to stop it. Obviously, if the skeleton guards chased them to the exit of the passage, the ten family knights could resist it, but due to the lack of corresponding extraordinary abilities and means, it would be difficult to destroy these terrible necromantic creatures. And there will definitely be heavy casualties.

At this moment, an explosion suddenly appeared ten meters in front of those people.

The intense flames and shockwaves were chosen to perfection, forcing them to stop, but not hurting their lives.

The next moment, Leo's voice rang out in the sky: "If you don't want to die, don't run in that direction!"

There were pursuers in the back, and there was an explosion in front, and several ordinary adventurers were stunned on the spot for a while.

Murafa also noticed the flames, and while secretly frightened, he was even more glad for the decision he had made.

He's always been natural and you're good at strength. I also want to rely on those ragtag armies and the Thunder Family squad to fight against each other. But it wasn't until this moment that I finally understood that if I were in the center of that kind of explosion, I would definitely not be able to get out of it, that is, if that mage had any idea, he could take his own life at any time.

"Thankfully, I've been cooperating with them......" Murafa muttered, shouting with all his strength, "Bunnies!

Hearing the boss's shout, several people suddenly woke up like a dream, like drowning people grasping at the last straw. Shift direction and run as hard as you can.

"Huh!"

The huge bone blade fell diagonally, less than ten centimeters away from the last person.

See this scene. Leo also secretly relieved, in fact, if those people just now ignored the explosion and desperately fled to the exit, there was nothing he could do to continue to stop him.

Fortunately, this did not happen. And Murafa also showed a fully cooperative attitude, so the rest was very easy.

............

However, things didn't go so easily. It could even be said to be extremely tough.

Half an hour later, the last of the skeleton guards collapsed, and Demont leaped from its skull with a few quick bounces, avoiding the possibility of being crushed.

Confusingly, this skeleton guard is distinctly different from the others, with greater strength, higher resistance, and faster speed, but fortunately, it is also inferior in intelligence. But even so, it took three times as long for the Thunder Squad to win, and several people were injured, and the rest were close to losing their strength.

No one cheered, and Charlotte's little face, which was out of character, turned pale, couldn't hold on any longer, and sat on the ground.

Iron Fist is experienced in adventure, and he did not immediately let his guard down, but cast a low-level healing magic regardless of the consumption to relieve Demon's injuries after taking the healing potion.

This young and calm man was always at the forefront, the wound on his arm was deep and bone-deep, and half of his body was red with blood.

On the other hand, Gray Alfalfa is also using magic to treat Tormon. His injuries were also quite serious, with a ruptured tendon in his lower arm, and it is unknown how long it would take to fully recover.

The half-elf was not injured, and said fearfully: "Damn, why is this head so difficult?"

"Because it's on the verge of evolving into a Bone Lord. Leo replied as he used the dragon's wrath in his hand to pry a gray crystal from the huge skull, "Fortunately, it's still a little bit closer, otherwise its intelligence will be greatly improved, and then we may even be wiped out." ”

"How so...... How could this be......" Charlotte muttered distractedly, "why wasn't it mentioned in the information?"

Demon's expression was depressed, and he spoke: "It's my negligence, there is such a big deviation in intelligence, whether this operation is successful or not, after I go back, I will pay what I agreed before, and compensate everyone for the losses in the battle." ”

"There's no need to say that now, let's quickly decide whether we want to move on or not. Leo tossed the bone crystals to Demon.

Although this thing is not obtained from the real Bone Lord, it is of inferior quality, but it is also quite valuable, and can be used to craft powerful necromancer or magical equipment.

Watching the bone crystals cut through an arc, the gray alfalfa's eyes hidden in the hood lit up, but the treatment continued in his hands, and he didn't say anything. This was agreed before the departure, and the loot that everyone had obtained together was gathered together and distributed after returning home.

Carefully putting away the first trophy, Demont nodded, looked around and said, "What do you say?"

"I feel like we should go back. This is completely inconsistent with what the intelligence says, so it's better to recover first and then come back in and explore. The half-elf said with a sigh of relief.

Tormon, who had always been taunted by him, finally found a chance to fight back, and said with a smile: "You have the guts, even if this place is different from what the intelligence says, but we have even killed such a powerful guy, what else can't we do? It's better to take advantage of the present and kill directly into the death tunnel." Maybe the corpse witch will be cut into meat puree in a few clicks without a powerful helper. What do you say, Demon?"

Instead of responding, Demont looked at Leo to hear what he had to say.

On the one hand, Leo showed his unfathomable strength, calm and clear mind, which made it possible to win the battle, and in the battle just now, his magic golem showed unimaginable combat power, absorbing almost half of the damage. Just blocked two knives for Demon, and now he is covered with scars, and his entire body is also seriously deformed, otherwise the Thunder Squad would not be what it is now.

It can be said that Leo has now completely become the real core of this team, and of course has the highest voice.

However, for the badly damaged Valkyrie, Leo was not too distressed. Because the truly precious materials are hidden beneath the metal skeleton and are not damaged, as long as the most important obsidian lattice is not lost. The Valkyrie will always be able to recover.

What's more, Demont also promised that he would compensate for his losses, believing in the ability of the Thunder family. Collecting some relatively expensive metal shouldn't be a problem, and Valkyrie can also repair it quickly.

Noticing that Demont was asking for his opinion, he didn't speculate either. "That's what I think, since I've been here and experienced such a battle. There is no reason to give up halfway. At least before dark, we should find the entrance to the death pit and get ready for tomorrow. ”

Hearing him say this, Demont nodded solemnly, and was about to speak, when a voice suddenly came from next to him: "I think I know where the entrance to the death pit is!"

When everyone looked around, they saw that Murafa and his two remaining men were coming from the fog not far away, with a flattering smile on their faces, contrary to their previous stubborn confrontation.

Demon didn't have any good feelings about this former horse bandit leader, but he had to admit that if it wasn't for the cooperation of others just now, it would be really difficult for his side to successfully kill the four skeleton guards and a quasi-skeleton lord.

Frowning slightly, Demon said, "How do you know about the entrance?"

Murafa smiled and replied, "I've been running around here several times when the last big guy was lured away by that powerful Mr. Mage. You also know that according to my temperament, since I came, I can't come in vain, of course I have to get something back. So after making sure there weren't any high-level monsters around, we planned to take a look inside, and we found the entrance to the tunnel. ”

Receiving such information, Demont couldn't help but be concerned: "How far is it from here?"

"It's not far, it's only about a kilometer. Murafa replied directly, now he hopes to win more favor from the other party, so he has no intention of selling off.

Demont groaned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the other party was laughing a little monster, and his heart moved, and asked, "What else have you found?"

"Hehe, I really can't hide it from you. Murafa pulled out a handful of "expensive" white mist grass from his pocket.

He didn't know that it was all made up by Riohu, but the rest of the Thunder Squad knew it very well, and everyone was smiling for a while. The ragtags have just escaped now, and maybe they'll come in tomorrow, so it's best not to let them know yet.

Leo was worried that someone would be exposed, so he took the initiative to "sincerely" say: "You are really lucky to get so much at once." This stuff is very useful to me, please keep it for me. ”

Murafa didn't notice anything unusual at all, and nodded again and again: "Of course, of course, we have also fought together, and of course we must sell things to you first." ”

As he spoke, he reached into his arms and found a few other things.

Leo thought he had picked up some more junks and treasures, but when his eyes fell on them, he couldn't move them anymore.

It was a few stones and crystals of different shapes and colors, and with his eyes, he instantly recognized three very valuable gems, the Necro Stone that could be used to increase the effect of necromancy, the Shadow Rock that could be used to reconcile negative energy, and ...... The much-needed Soul Crystal!

Although the others are indistinguishable, they are also brilliant and by no means ordinary.

The scorching gaze flickered, and Leo quickly returned to normal.

Although none of the people present knew magic, gems with special powers could not only be used in magic, but also other professions sometimes needed them, so most of them had some eyesight and could see that those stones were valuable.

In the glittering brilliance of the gem, Tolman swallowed: "You...... You...... Where did you find it?"

"The entrance to the pit! I think there must be more inside!" replied Murafa without hesitation.

Such behavior was obviously contrary to common sense, and the half-elf immediately questioned, "But why did you tell us?"

Fear appeared on Mulafa's face and he replied, "I dare not go any further." ”

Demont immediately asked, "What's in there?"

Murafa shook his head: "I don't know, but I just can't go in, my heart tells me I can't go in." But if we're together, I think we should be able to get in!"

Leo thought thoughtfully, and suddenly asked two of Murafa's men, "What about you, how do you feel the same?"

The two immediately nodded, and one of them said, "I'm sure there's no wall in there, but I just can't go inside, it's weird." ”

"Fear aura...... Leo whispered a noun.

"What did you say, Mr. Mars?" Demont asked hurriedly, seeing that Leo seemed to have discovered something.

Leo said with a serious expression, "If I'm not mistaken, the corpse witch is indeed in the death pit right now. And what the three of them encountered just now was the aura of fear emitted by the corpse witch. Under the influence of the aura, they will unconsciously develop fear and want to escape. ”

"So we ......"

"It can be a good opportunity, it can also be a danger. Leo analyzed clearly, "From what I know, the Corpse Witch doesn't always have an aura of fear. They only emit an aura of fear when they are weak, dormant, and evolutionary, and are used to influence potential threats. ”

"Unconscious...... This is definitely an opportunity, where is the danger?" Charlotte asked with a wink.

Leo knew that others wanted to ask the question, so he patiently explained, "If it's weak or dormant, it's okay to just kill it." But if it's evolution, then the necro will accumulate a huge amount of energy, and once we trigger it, the consequences will be unimaginable. (To be continued......)
