Ren Qi thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn’t figure out what was specifically targeting the lord.
That cursed aura made him feel a little uneasy.
The entire team continued to move forward. They didn’t encounter any danger, and the surroundings were very quiet. There was nothing out of the ordinary.
However, Ren Qi soon realized that something was wrong.
They had been walking in this tunnel for a very long time and had almost never stopped. However, until now, it was still dark in front of them.
The surrounding tunnel did not change at all. The patterns on the walls were still the same as before, as if there were no changes at all.
Ren Qi felt as if they were walking through an endless passage.
Risa also noticed something strange. She looked at Ren Qi and said, “Master, the passage here seems to be a little strange, as if there is no end to it. We seem to have lost our way here.”
Ren Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lost?
The current situation seemed to be the case. It was just that they did not know what this kind of lost meant.
Was it because they were repeating the same route in the tunnel, or was it because the tunnel itself was bottomless?
Thinking of this, Ren Qi stopped the entire army.
The current situation was a little strange. If they continued to move forward, there was probably no way out.
Ren Qi found a few mages who were good at scouting and asked them to check the surrounding walls to see what was behind them.
The mages were also more obedient. After all, Xuan Ming and the others had temporarily given the command of these troops to Ren Qi.
Although they would not be disloyal to their master, as long as it was not something that endangered their master, they would listen to Ren Qi’s orders.
The mages went to the two sides of the wall and slowly put their hands on the walls on both sides.
Then, the mages slowly closed their eyes and began to carefully investigate the situation behind the wall.
Looking at the mages, Ren Qi did not disturb them. He quietly waited for the final result.
Soon, their investigation ended.
When they returned to Ren Qi, their answers were all the same.
“Reporting to Lord Ren Qi, we didn’t feel anything special behind the wall. However, about ten meters behind the wall, there’s nothing. There’s no wall material at all. This passage seems to be in the void.”
When Ren Qi heard this, he immediately frowned.
A void?
If there was a void behind the wall, then their position was no longer under the swamp.
Previously, when they passed through the whirlpool in the swamp, Ren Qi felt that they had not gone deep into the swamp.
After all, the feeling of weightlessness was as if they had passed through some kind of spatial device.
Although the soldiers around them did not feel the attack aimed at their souls, the soldiers around them also felt the feeling of weightlessness.
Now that they had discovered that there was a void outside the wall, Ren Qi was even more certain that they were no longer under the swamp, but in another spatial region.
However, for the sake of being more cautious, Ren Qi had Xuan Ming’s scouts move to both sides of the tunnel and continue to investigate the situation outside.
Very quickly, the scouts returned to their senses. The results were exactly the same as those of the mages.
There was indeed a stretch of void outside the two sides of the tunnel. It was like a tunnel floating in the void.
Looking at the dark tunnel ahead and the similarly dark tunnel behind, Ren Qi’s eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.
The current situation didn’t look too good. After all, they were in an unknown place.
Originally, Ren Qi was prepared to investigate the situation behind the walls on both sides of the tunnel. Then, he would directly break through the walls and not follow the tunnel ahead.
After all, there was definitely a builder’s design in this tunnel.
If it was a good design, then it would be fine. If it was a trap design, then the tunnel ahead would definitely not be easy to pass through.
In such a situation, it was naturally best not to follow the other party’s logic.
Didn’t you want me to follow this passage? I’ll break it open for you and then take another path.
Unfortunately, Ren Qi’s idea was directly intercepted by the situation outside the two sides of the passage.
It was a stretch of void outside. Breaking through the wall and going out was simply courting death.
Ren Qi had no choice but to order the team to continue forward along the tunnel in front of them, just to alert the surrounding troops.
Elise was right in front of the team, holding the Dragon Pool Sword in her hand as she walked forward at a moderate pace.
Behind her were three Saint-tier undying blood phoenixes. They followed behind Elise and spat out flames from their mouths, illuminating the situation around them and in front of them.
At this moment, Elise raised her hand and stopped the team behind her.
Under the illumination of the flames spat out by the undying blood phoenix, something seemed to appear in front of them.
Elise held the Dragon Pool Sword in her hand and had one of the undying blood phoenixes behind her spit out flames.
The undying blood phoenix stepped forward and opened its mouth. Dense scarlet flames surged into the tunnel in front of them.
The scorching heat instantly rushed into the tunnel ahead, and the light it brought also illuminated the tunnel.
Elise narrowed her eyes and clearly saw the scene in the tunnel ahead.
In the tunnel ahead, there were several figures standing in the darkness, blocking the back of the tunnel.
When the flames appeared, they lit up these figures.
They were all golden distorted angels!
The moment she saw these distorted angels, Elise raised her vigilance and sent the news to Ren Qi behind her.
Ren Qi quickly sensed Elise’s side and also saw the distorted angels in front of him.
The distorted angels were very tall, almost blocking the top of the tunnel.
There were also a lot of them in front. Not only the front row, but there were also a lot of them in the tunnel behind, blocking the situation behind them.
Ren Qi frowned.
These distorted golden angels did not move, as if they had entered a strange state.
The aura on these golden distorted angels was very dense. Each of them had the aura of at least half-step sage realm, and there were many sage realm auras among them.
In fact, Ren Qi could even sense an even stronger aura from behind!
Demigod?
Ren Qi frowned. If there really were demigods, it would be troublesome.
However, the distorted angels in front of him did not move at all. They seemed to be in a special state.
However, the passage ahead was already blocked by these angels. It was impossible for them to pass without alerting them.
“Master, what do we do now?” Elise looked at Ren Qi and asked.
Ren Qi pondered for a moment and began to think.
There was a void behind the two sides of the wall, so it was impossible to break through the walls on both sides and leave through the walls on both sides.
The only way now was to pass through the passage ahead.
If he wanted to pass through, he would have to face those distorted angels in front of him.
Everything seemed to have returned to its original point.
After pondering for a moment, Ren Qi raised his head and said, “Since we can’t avoid them, let’s attack first.”
“The distorted angels in front of us should be in a special state right now. They can’t move or attack. This is a good opportunity.”
“Let the soldiers with the strongest combat strength come to the area at the front and release their strongest attacks at the distorted angels in front of us. Try to reduce the number of the enemies as much as possible.”
Since he could not avoid coming into contact with the distorted angels in front of him, he would not avoid them. Instead, he would directly attack them.
Taking advantage of the fact that the other party was currently in a special state, he would directly use his strongest attack to reduce their numbers as much as possible.
Hearing Ren Qi’s words, Elise did not hesitate. She immediately began to mobilize the most powerful members of the troops to the front.
All the troops in the front area began to gather and attack.
Ren Qi quietly looked at the distorted golden angels in front of him. He was not worried that the surrounding walls would not be able to withstand the powerful attacks and shatter, causing them to enter the void.
From the moment the Dragon Pool Sword had pierced the wall, Ren Qi knew clearly that the resistance of the walls here was very strong. There was no need to worry about using too much strength.
When the surrounding troops had all gathered their attacks, Elise took the lead to attack.
Raising the dragon pool sword in his hand, Elise directly slashed towards the golden distorted angels in the tunnel ahead.
The sword Qi that had gathered for a long time instantly bloomed over, leaving a sword scar on the surrounding walls.
The enormous sword Qi directly landed on the bodies of the golden distorted angels in front.
“Bang!”
Following an intense muffled sound, the bodies of the golden distorted angels in the front row were instantly sliced apart by the sword qi. Their bodies were turned into fragments and scattered all over the ground.
Ren Qi raised his brows when he saw this.
Although he did not know what had happened to these golden distorted angels, this situation was as though their bodies had turned into rocks.
After suffering a powerful attack, they would be directly shattered.
At the same time, the troops behind Elise had also gathered their attacks and directly unleashed them in front of them.
Scarlet flames, large amounts of fallen flames, powerful dark blue lasers, and the lightning bolts condensed by Magi all headed towards the golden distorted angels in front of them.
Loud sounds rose up in front of them continuously, as if the tunnel in front of them had been detonated.
The bodies of the distorted angels in front of them were like cracked rocks, exploding and scattering on the ground.
At this time, the distorted angels behind the tunnel in front seemed to have sensed danger.
Rays of golden light blossomed from their bodies and began to help them block the large number of attacks in front of them.
At the same time, their statue-like bodies began to regain their vitality and slowly move.
However, the troops that Ren Qi and the others had mobilized were all top-tier troops. The attacks that they unleashed were also extremely powerful.
Therefore, even though these giant golden angels had recovered, they were still caught off guard by this kind of attack, and a large number of them were killed.
The giant golden angels in front had suffered great losses, but the giant golden angels behind them did not suffer too much impact.
The golden light on their bodies became denser, and their bodies also completely recovered.
A large amount of golden light surged and blocked a large number of attacks from Ren Qi’s troops.
After the first round of attacks, Elise and the others did not stop. Instead, they continued to attack.
A large number of attacks continued to explode in the tunnel ahead, causing the golden light to falter.
However, there were still many huge golden distorted angels that had awoken. Their gazes landed on Ren Qi and the others.
Without hesitation, these huge golden distorted angels that had awoken charged forward and pounced on Ren Qi and the others.
The sound of huge footsteps sounded. The two parties quickly came into contact.
Elise snorted coldly. She held the Dragon Pool Sword in her hand and directly charged into the group of huge golden distorted angels in front of her. The Dragon Pool Sword in her hand continued to slash out, directly killing several huge golden distorted angels.
However, there were still quite a number of large golden distorted angels behind them that passed Elise and headed toward the troops behind her.
The undying blood phoenix and the other troops also directly faced the enemy. Large numbers of attacks collided in the narrow space, and explosive energy was instantly unleashed.
The walls on both sides were continuously bombarded, emitting muffled sounds.
In this sealed environment, the two sides’ explosive attacks came into contact with each other, causing an intense explosive impact.
This kind of energy impact caused the walls on both sides to crack, and many stones fell.
However, the cracked walls were only a shallow layer, and not many stones fell.
If it was an ordinary wall, under this kind of explosive energy impact, it would definitely be completely shattered.
Perhaps it was because these huge golden distorted angels had just woken up, but their combat strength did not appear very strong. Instead, it was a little weak.
The surrounding undead blood phoenixes and the other soldiers quickly completed their suppression of these huge golden distorted angels.
Following the suppression, the huge golden distorted angels charging forward began to be killed in large numbers.
Soon after, Ren Qi discovered a very strange phenomenon.
After these huge golden distorted angels were killed, they did not turn into corpses.
After they were killed, the bodies of these huge golden distorted angels seemed to turn into stones as they directly shattered, not spilling a drop of blood.
Looking at the stones on the ground, Ren Qi was shocked.
Could these huge distorted golden angels be stone statues?
