The vision in the distance was blurred, and where the light of the [Dancing Light Technique] could not reach, there was a strange aura everywhere. No matter where he stared, even if it was just a broken mural or a fireplace that had not been lived in for a long time, Vondarke had the illusion of being touched by the afterglow of a nightmare.

The palpitations were so intense that he didn't go far before his robe was soaked with sweat.

Beware of the pounding of the liver, as if it is about to jump out of the chest at any moment.

Although he made himself look calm, he didn't stop looking around after entering the ruined castle.

The summer moonlight could not penetrate this haunted place shrouded in clouds, and all that could be seen was dark rooms that could be described as 'dilapidated'.

As soon as Vondark's foot stepped on the wooden floor on the second floor, the slightly decaying wood immediately let out a shocking "squeak" scream, making his frowning brow not stretch for a long time.

The walls were moldy on all sides, and the smell of rot and musty was in the air in the entire brick and wood corridor, and the surrounding environment made Vondarke very uncomfortable.

If he had a choice, he would rather pick up a tomahawk and fight a thousand abominable cavemen for 300 rounds.

Unfortunately not.

This is his 'Mage Midterm Exam'.

Vondarke thought it was ridiculous, how long had he been learning magic? After learning a bunch of theories, he comprehended a few magics, and the cheap master directly threw him over to fight.

It's like just coming out of the novice village and facing the boss at the end.

It's a terrible feeling.

But Vondarke couldn't refuse.

Because the members who make up the five-person squad are so special:

BASF* Brass Arm, a shield guard who has served the Iron Hand family for three generations and is extremely loyal.

Emma Farris, a half-elf from Marino, is a hybrid of a high-ranking Ranger and a Priest of Light, and has also served three generations of Grand Dukes.

Sanders Dark Guard, the number one follower of his elder brother and a high-ranking shadow dancer.

Then there's Archduchess Sofia Marino, High Overseer.

With such a lavish lineup running to clear a demon lair, Vondarke felt a bit overkill at first. But the reason of the female archduke is sufficient!

"Fabio Pounds fell into the devil's path and became an evil spirit. As his former sovereign, I have an obligation to do harm to the people. It's just the right thing to do this time. ”

There was once a hapless ghost clan named Vito Pounds who was ordered by Wren to be sharpened into a stick. And this Fabio is Vito's father, who was ordered by Sofia to strip his fief because he abandoned his people and fled during the Lich Incident.

I thought that this matter had already come to an end, but who expected it to be a serial.

Sophia didn't do everything completely, so she allocated a small piece of land in her royal estate and a small castle for Fabio to retire with.

The ghost knew that this thing couldn't be opened so much, and he was depressed, and finally he didn't know where to get a secret book of necromancers, and he practiced and practiced and lost himself.

Instead of becoming a noble lich, man has become a powerful [spooky ghost] because of his strong resentment.

Now, it's all right, it's going to be Sophia.

Wren simply threw Vondarker over by the way.

Compared to Vondark's nervousness, Sophia was relieved.

Few people know the details of this place better than she does. The whole of Marino is the territory of the Legendary Physics Lands. But if she screams, the next second a legendary archmage will step on the colorful auspicious clouds and arrive at the lair of the evil spirits loyal to him.

Originally, dungeons and monster lairs involved in the Chaos Vortex would instinctively reject teleportation. But who told someone to have too much authority?

Vonduck, a rookie adventurer with little experience, didn't find out, which doesn't mean that the calm Sophia didn't notice it. In the corridor that Vondarker had just passed, there was a sneaky fire bat hanging upside down.

Sophia gave a kiss to the firebat, and the firebat returned a kiss in a very anthropomorphic way.

BASF, Emma, Sanders: "......"

They looked at the nervous Vondak again, and suddenly became speechless.

Sure enough, the trials in this world are different from the trials.

Sanders sighed in his heart, and sure enough, the contrast was huge. At the beginning of the Downs trial, he really broke into the demon cave alone. Now that two noble bigwigs have come to the trial, there is a feeling of being in a kindergarten.

Of course, there are still differences, and if you miss here, you will still die.

It's just that the odds are infinitely small.

Turning a corner, I came to a meeting room on the second floor, where the magic light ball of the dancing light magically reflected the surroundings, and the miserable white light outlined the condition of the dilapidated hall, and at this moment, a large series of semi-illusory animal heads suddenly appeared in the position of the suspended candelabra in the hall.

"Squeak!"

"Wang-"

The heads of these illusory critters passed from the third floor through the ceiling on the second floor, like a huge corn gathered around the candlestick, constantly stirring and wailing.

"Ahh Almost subconsciously, Vondarker shouted Joule's name, and then a large fireball "banged" paste.

"Don't!" Sophia didn't even have time to stop him.

The cast speed of this thing is really fast!

A fireball the size of a water tank slammed into the candlestick, erupting in a scorching flash. The fire scorched the trumpets gathered together, easily turning the undead into wisps of black smoke.

"Boom!"

The huge candlestick fell heavily and smashed on the floor because of the explosion of the top pedestal, and strangely, some unburned candles were lit on it, and clusters of cold candlelight rose.

"Vondark! Calm down! Calm down—" Sophia shouted, not just plain words of encouragement, but the Overseer's support ability, Inspire Assistance.

A warm force poured into Fundak's heart, which immediately calmed him down.

"Sorry! I was so nervous. ”

"It's okay, it's the right thing to do to solve a level 5 [Floating Spirit Swarm] with fire, what you need is to control the power of the magic and not affect your teammates." Emma educates Vondarker as an elder.

"Taught."

At this moment, Sophia shouted: "Enemy attack!" ”

It is also a [Hasty Warning] that belongs to the Overseer's skill, and this voice made the teammates who would have been able to withstand the surprise attack react immediately.

Thanks to this reminder, several teammates managed to dodge the sneak attack when several long iron chains with a heavy smell of blood and rust suddenly pierced out from under the floor slabs.

However, when Count Fabio Ponzis, who looked like a dried corpse and didn't even have a few hairs left, appeared with a master-level mutant chain demon with a challenge level 12, the five members of the team were still stunned.

Two master-level monsters, how do you fight?

"It's actually the little slut of Marino's family who sent it to the door by himself! Truly! I've wanted to kill you for a long time......" Before Mr. Earl, who had turned into a grim ghost, finished speaking, a strange 'courier' was like an east wind, and it was just there.

"Boom!"

The thick thunder that the three of them couldn't hold together fell from the sky, blasting through the thick masonry on the roof, bursting the ceilings of the second and third floors, and landing on the mutant chain demon with great precision, sending it back to the bottomless abyss in an instant, in the form of a corpse.

Wren's voice came more and more in the air: "No! You don't want to! ”
