Looking forward to another world.

Chapter 653 "Big Tree Maze"

Dungeon, level 24.

Just like the alias of "big tree labyrinth", the scene presented on this floor is a combination of "tree" and "maze".

The roads here are intricate, like a dense forest in a fairy tale, giving people a feeling that if you step on it, you will go directly to the dreamland and get lost in the paradise.

The walls, ceiling, and floor here are all made of bark, like the inside of a giant tree.

Luminous moss grows disorderly in the maze. On the road, you can also see leaves with wonderful shapes and colors, huge fungi, flower bean dripping with silver water droplets and other plants that do not exist on the ground, and there are even beautiful gardens. , Messy grasslands, lush forests and amazing beehives and other incredible landscapes make the whole maze a paradise.

In fact, for some people, this place is indeed no different from Xanadu.

Because the "big tree labyrinth" area from the 19th floor to the 24th floor has a special feature, that is, there are a variety of rare medicinal herbs and fruits and other raw materials that will grow here.

Some of them can be eaten directly and have excellent taste, while some have quick-acting recovery effects and detoxification effects, so they are valued by pharmacists who prepare elixir and other items. Some are scarce on the surface as rare vegetation. There are even high-priced collectibles, and some even have the value as works of art. Even the dazzling moss that forms the maze light source in this area can be brought back to the surface and exchanged for a lot of money, which can be said to be treasures everywhere.

Because of this feature of the "big tree maze", many merchants or pharmacists on the ground will post adventurer requests in the guild in order to obtain valuable herbal raw materials, entrusting senior adventurers who can go to the "big tree maze" area to collect these for them For raw materials, some commercial family members even set up collection teams to visit here regularly, making this place one of the veritable treasure places in the dungeon.

Thanks to this, many adventurers often use this place as a gold digging nest. There are adventurers who come here to look for "treasures" due to lack of money, and it is not uncommon for people to pay their precious lives for this. Tell me Without people, no matter how rich the resources are here, a dungeon is a dungeon, and danger is absolutely indispensable.

Perhaps it is for this reason that the dungeon (mother) loves this area especially, and the monsters born here are far more diverse and special than the floors so far.

Here, there are berg bears and big beetles that are born with extremely high potential abilities, which cannot be dealt with by ordinary Lv. Poisonous mushrooms, if they are targeted by these monsters, even second-level adventurers who have reached Lv.2 may have a headache.

In addition, there are deadly wasps that can suddenly jump out of trees and pierce people's flesh with huge tail needles, lizardmen who can use weapons and shields, and some who are so huge that it is unbelievable that they are brothers. Brin's giant goblin, and the sword-horned deer with extremely sharp horns, none of these monsters are easy to deal with, each has its own strength and danger.

In such a place, no matter how many half-level Lv.2s come, they are probably just here to deliver food. Even Lv.3s here can hardly guarantee safety in a single-handed situation. If they are negligent, even Lv.4 is also likely to be killed here. In the past, adventurers without Lv.4 died here because of abnormal events such as monster feasts.

From this point of view, the mysterious magician did not make a mistake in handing over the abnormal event of the monster surge that appeared on this floor to the Hermes family.

There are 24 members of the Hermes Familia who came to the 15th floor this time, including Yasifei. Most of these 15 people are Lv.3, Yasifei himself is Lv.4, such a small army Even if you sneak into the lower level, which is close to the deep level, there is probably no problem. If you are willing to take the risk, it is not impossible to go to the 37th floor.

For such a small team to explore on the 24th floor, it must be a little... no, it should be said to be an extreme excess of combat power.

But today, such a small team appeared on the 24th floor and could barely protect themselves.

the reason is simple.

"""""Gahoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-!"""""""""

Accompanied by the terrifying roar resounding throughout the "big tree labyrinth", a large group of monsters appeared in groups in the labyrinth like a rushing tide of beasts.

It was a scene like the surging black tide.

It was a world like a ferocious beast coming out of its cage.

Deadly hornets, lizardmen, sword-horned deer, dark poisonous mushrooms... All kinds of monsters completely abandoned racial differences, as if they had turned into a legion, a force, and a whole, going forward one after another towards the people who appeared on this floor. The prey rushed.

The extremely spectacular parade of monsters almost flooded the entire passage, making it impossible for the prey adventurers to hide even if they wanted to.

"Formation! Raise the shield!"

Yasifei also opened her eyes wide when she saw such an astonishing army of monsters rushing towards her, and then, as if shocked by the sense of crisis, she roared and gave instructions.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...

All of a sudden, the vanguard members of the Hermes family stepped forward one after another, suppressing the wavering in their hearts, followed the instructions of the regiment leader, smashed their shields on the ground, and propped up a shield wall.

A tiger man wielding a big sword stood behind them, a mage of the little human race chanted spells with a staff, a beautiful elf raised a short bow and shot arrows, and a dog-man girl held a dagger Jumping onto the tree, it seems to be ready to pass through the monster group from the woods on both sides, guerrilla to support one's own side.

The members of the Hermes family came into contact with an astonishing number of monsters, and began to fall into a melee.

Facing such a large number of monsters, even if they are between Lv.3-Lv.4, they can barely support a battle line, defend against the charge of a large number of monsters, block them from the outside of the team, and fight hard up.

What is presented before their eyes is the violence of quantity.

The monster army, which was far more frightening than the monster's banquet, the monster's gift, and the abnormal situation, roared and roared, hysterically attacking the defense line of the Hermes family, intending to engulf them.

"Is this the monster surge...!?"

Yasifei understood the seriousness of the matter, and finally knew why the adventurers who explored on this floor before were in danger.

With such an abnormal number of monsters, it is so difficult even for them to deal with, let alone those adventurers around Lv.2.

"[Crafting Swordsman]! [Sword Fairy]!"

Yasifei could only turn her head and look at the two first-level adventurers accompanying her, trying to get them to support her side.

Who would have thought that just as Ya Sifei turned her head to look over, two gusts of wind blew around her.

The boy and girl who were standing beside her had already rushed out, their figures were like a gust of wind, and while making the whistling sound of wind, they rolled the atmosphere in the maze, letting the air flow wrap around their bodies.

"on!"

"it is good!"

After such a short conversation, the young girl leaped high in an extremely tacit understanding, jumped over the heads of the members of the Hermes family supporting the shield wall, and swept into an astonishing number of people amidst everyone's exclamation and astonishment. monster swarm.

"bass!"

"choke!"

The clear sound of drawing the sword resounded through the sky.

"Pfft!"

Aisi took the lead in cutting out the sword of despair, and let the silver saber pass through the air, drawing a trajectory of a swift blow, cutting off the deadly wasp flying in the air.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

"Chirp!"

The surrounding monsters immediately rushed towards Aisi with fierce eyes, among which the two firebirds were the most conspicuous. While spitting out flames, they rushed towards Aisi, as if they were going to take her and her companions (monsters) together. Burnt to ashes.

In this regard, Ai Si just slashed coldly, coldly, ruthlessly, and quickly, her figure rushed forward like a wind, and the silver saber in her hand turned into the source of countless sword lights, intertwined with a twist The flesh-like storm killed all the monsters rushing towards him, and even chopped off the flame breath of the fire bird, which was so powerful that it made people tremble.

Compared to Ais who turned into a slashing storm, Li Ge's figure is much more elegant.

He came first, got through the gap between the monsters at the moment Aisi rushed into the crowd of monsters, came to the center of the crowd of monsters, and then spun on the spot, letting the crystal-clear sword flash by Void, leaving arcs of light in the space.

His slash was soundless, like a breeze passing by.

His slash was sharp and awe-inspiring, and it didn't seem to have much lethality, but it caused all the monsters that touched the tip of the sword to scream again and again, and a part of their limbs was cut off in the blink of an eye, and blood splashed all over the ground.

He didn't interweave a storm of blades like Aisi, but while harvesting the monster's life, he flashed back and forth in the monster's attack, dancing lightly, dodging all the attacks exactly.

During this period, he even chanted magic calmly, calmly, and with a calm expression while everyone gasped.

"[The light arrow of liberation, the bow stem of the holy wood, I am the famous hand of the bow.]"

"【Stop it, Goblin Archer.】"

"[Pierce through, the arrow that must hit.]"

As if dancing on the tip of a knife, Li Ge avoided the lizard man who was slashing at him from behind without blinking his eyes, and then kicked the sniper dragonfly flying from the side, dodging the berg bear and the big beetle. After the surprise attack, he turned around and stretched out his palm facing the direction with the most monsters.

"[Arc Ray]!"

A thick golden magic circle formed in front of the palm, and the huge flash turned into a torrent and was released from Li Ge's hand.

Immediately, the flash of light engulfed the monster, the passage, and the maze, causing a grand explosion to appear here.

Seeing this scene, Ya Sifei also trembled.

"This is……"

[Almighty] His lips pursed tightly.
