Chapter 1082 - 1082 Falling into a Trap
1082 Falling into a Trap
Seeing the game prompt, Mikhael frowned and said, “No, we don’t have time. Let’s follow him to pray. Let’s see what kind of tricks he can play!”
As Wei Tao spoke, he looked at everyone and reminded them, “Get ready for battle. Leave a team outside to stand guard.”
Led by Mikhael, the group carefully followed behind the priest of the cave-dwelling beasts into the temple.
The elite cave-dwelling beast led the way at the front.
After entering the temple, everyone found that there was only a straight corridor in front of them.
The two sides of the corridor were extremely wide. It was impossible to see the boundaries in the darkness as if the darkness could absorb all light.
A player suddenly whispered, “Everyone, be careful. My special talent can detect the number of enemies around us. We’ve been surrounded by a large number of enemies. There are at least thousands of them.”
Hearing this, everyone’s heart sank again, and they all clenched their weapons.
“I still have 45 minutes left on the cooldown time of my summoning skill,” Fang Heng added. “If we encounter any danger, you can consider delaying the time.”
“Yes….”
The group discussed in low voices as they carefully followed the priest.
Soon, the group arrived at the end of the corridor.
The end of the tunnel was connected to a huge circular hall.
It was the same borderless hall, and the floor was made of bricks of different colors to form three circles.
The closer they were to the center, the lighter the color of the crystal bricks.
The hall was shrouded in darkness.
The cave-dwelling beast walked to the center of the hall and stopped again.
He faced Argyll, and his mouth once again made a gurgling sound.
Argyll frowned and explained to the crowd, “He wants us to stand in the middle of the hall and pray with him.”
“Tell him that we want to know who we are praying to.”
Argyll nodded and tried to communicate with the cave-dwelling beast. He shook his head and said, “No, he’s insistent. He doesn’t want to continue communicating with us. He only wants us to complete our prayers, or he won’t answer any of our questions.”
As he spoke, the priest slowly retreated from the inner circle and stood on the outer circle, pointing the bone spear in his hand towards the inner circle.
Argyll frowned and said, “He asked us to enter the inner circle and start praying.”
“He’s playing tricks. Wei Tao, you decide. What should we do?”
Wei Tao looked at the remaining time and said in a low voice, “Follow the mission and complete the prayer. The mission difficulty is A-level, so everyone, keep your spirits up.”
Following Argyll’s guidance, everyone stepped forward and surrounded the inner circle in the center of the hall.
The priest of the cave-dwelling beasts stood at the edge of the outer circle, made a praying gesture, and closed his eyes.
Mo Jiawei was puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong? What does this mean?”
Argyll nodded. “Just learn from him. It’s just for show.”
Everyone followed suit and got into their positions, closing their eyes.
Fang Heng looked at the others and closed his eyes as well. He released his perception to make sure that he could react at the first moment when he encountered danger.
“Clack…”
Eh?
All of a sudden, Fang Heng noticed a slight vibration coming from under his feet and couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
What was that?
A mechanism?
Suddenly, Mikhael also noticed that something was wrong. He opened his eyes and shouted, “Not good! Be careful!”
“BOOM!”
Following that, there was an explosion from the bottom of their feet, and a violent tremor came from the ground.
What the hell?
The players and the accompanying guards realized that something was wrong and immediately wanted to retreat. However, the entire ground suddenly caved in!
In his panic, Mo Jiawei subconsciously tried to grab onto anything besides him to keep his balance.
But he couldn’t do it!
In the state of weightlessness, everyone screamed as they fell down with the stone slab under their feet!
It was indeed a trap!
Fang Heng remained calm and transformed into a bat, floating in the air.
He watched as the floor beneath his feet shattered into many pieces, and the players and the Empire soldiers fell down together.
Several other players, including Mikhael, were floating in the air with some special power.
Looking down, the rest of the people were falling into the darkness.
Fang Heng quickly looked at the other side of the cave-dwelling beasts that led them into the hall.
At this time, he had already retreated, and a dark mass of cave-dwelling beasts appeared from the darkness around him. They raised their bone spears and approached the inner circle of the hall.
This was troublesome!
Just as Fang Heng was thinking about how to save his teammates, he suddenly felt a huge shadow looming over him.
What the hell!
“Fang Heng! Be careful!”
He looked up and saw the ceiling of the hall crashing down from above.
Damn it!
In the chaos, Fang Heng could only choose to fly down.
After flying down for about 20 meters at a high speed, Fang Heng saw a dim yellow light flashing below.
“Mud trap!”
The magic scroll in Wei Tao’s hand started to burn.
The originally solid ground below was affected by the magic and quickly softened into a swamp.
Tang Mingyue also raised her staff in front of her.
“Water dragon, break!”
BOOM!!
The magical elements condensed into a water dragon and blasted toward the mud below.
The muddy ground was corroded by the water and softened a little.
“Bang! Bang Bang…”
The players and soldiers of the Empire fell to the ground in a mess.
Fang Heng felt a little relieved in his heart. Then, another heavy collision sound came from above his head.
“BOOM!!!”
The ceiling that was falling from above was stuck in the groove of the vertical passage.
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat. He then transformed back into his human form and landed steadily in a swamp on the ground.
“Hu….”
Wei Tao heaved a sigh of relief.
The magic scroll-swamp trap, which was worth 2,000 King of Gods’ points, was also reduced to ashes.
Ever since he entered the temple, Wei Tao had been on high alert.
The difficulty of the mission, which was A-level, was a huge hint.
Fortunately, they reacted in time and the losses were still within control.
Most of the players participating in this trial were combat-type elite players. Falling from such a height could not guarantee that they would not be in one piece. A few of them with weak mental fortitude had directly withdrawn from the trial before they landed.
The remaining players more or less had life-saving skills. After landing, they immediately used various recovery potions to recover their HP.
The soldiers who came with him were all elites of the Empire, and they had excellent physical fitness. Most of them only suffered minor injuries when they fell into the wet mud.
The three mages of the Empire had learned elementary levitation spells, which could slow down the speed of their fall from the sky. They could also bring Argyll along with them to slowly fall from the sky.
“Brothers, are you all right?”
“I’m fine.”
“It’s alright, I can continue.”
Fang Heng looked around and observed the surrounding terrain again.
They were in a circular hall, and the exit in front of them was a straight passage, with no end in sight.
Fang Heng flicked his wrist and took out the Book of Creation to treat a few unlucky elite soldiers of the Empire who were seriously injured.
While the party members were busy treating their wounds, a strange sound suddenly came from the hall.
