Chapter 739 The Sorcerer Trapped in the Ruins

Anyone who frequently slays monsters knows that these creatures, constructed from demonic energy, do not possess the physical tissues of ordinary creatures.

They are spirits, spirits made of pollution. Killing them will only cause the pollution to dissipate and drop the things they are attached to.

However, when these 'monsters' were killed, no blood was produced. Just like ordinary monsters, the contamination emanated from their bodies and then dissipated into the air.

However, at some unknown time, a large amount of blood began to flow on the ground, gradually submerging it.

The five of them, including Celia, gathered together, watching the blood with suspicion.

"This blood looks suspicious; we can't touch it."

As Doris spoke, she casually picked up something dropped by a monster and threw it into the blood.

Blood splattered, but nothing happened.

"Although we don't know what the purpose of this blood is, judging from the 'acid rain' we encountered in the first phase, we absolutely must avoid it, Celia..."

"give it to me."

Celia nodded, and the blood that was spreading towards them was quickly frozen and stopped flowing.

More monsters were lurking, making it impossible for them to wait and observe the changes in the blood. They had no choice but to kill monsters while keeping an eye on the situation.

"Doris, have any reports from other expeditions mentioned the origin of this blood?" Celia asked.

Doris shook her head: "No, I looked into the situation last night. All I know is that this level requires us to slowly advance through the monster tide to find a way to get the three horses moving, but no one has mentioned this blood."

“Could it be that we didn’t see any blood flowing yesterday, and you didn’t ask, so they didn’t say anything?” Anke said.

"No, experienced explorers would not overlook something so unusual. Even if they didn't know its purpose, they would still remember it."

Doris paused, then added, "Also, all the expeditions that encountered Giant City had the same monster tide, but the other anomalies were all different... Oh, and the expedition we just encountered, the only one to die so far, died in the Giant City scene."

Benovia looked at the three horses chained in the distance and continued, "The expedition team's focus is on the city, and few people can reach those three horses. Perhaps the key to passing the level lies there?"

"It's such an obvious clue, everyone has had this thought, but it seems no one can get there safely while being attacked by monsters..."

Doris took the lead and jumped onto the chain that bound the three horses, walking on the right-hand chain.

"However, we are not an ordinary expedition team. Today's expedition goal is to get closer to those three horses and see what's going on!"

The others exchanged glances and then jumped onto the chains.

That's what they think too.

But just as they were preparing to charge through the monsters' siege, a voice came from behind.

"Don't go there, you'll die."

The girls quickly turned their heads to look in the direction from which the sound came.

Between the city and the chains that held the horses, there was a small, flat square—of course, to the giant it wasn't a square, just a small flat area, like a window sill.

If you fly into the air, you can see that the square where they are fighting is actually the top of a railing, and the chain is fastened next to the railing.

Below the railing is a huge plaza, resembling a small park or observation deck.

Beyond the square stood a series of enormous buildings. The sound came from outside one of these buildings, above a street lamp, where a head peeked out.

The streetlight was quite far away from Celia and the others, several hundred meters away. If the sorcerer hadn't had excellent eyesight, they wouldn't have been able to see it.

Celia exchanged glances with the others, then looked at Doris. Doris was experienced, and no one minded letting her be the captain and take command.

Unless she makes an unreasonable decision, everyone is happy to let her take the lead.

Doris thought for a moment and said, "We've been killing monsters in the plaza the whole time and haven't explored the area. We don't know where the other party is in this ruin. It could be a disguise of that guy from the first stage. A normal person's voice can't travel that far, so it must be at least a fourth-level... Anyway, get ready for battle and then fly over."

Others nodded.

The girls boarded their flying vehicles and charged toward the streetlights, slaying monsters along the way.

After crossing the fence where they had initially stood, they saw that blood had covered the small viewing plaza, and even the fences and streetlights were stained red.

The blood was slowly covering everything like a fungal carpet.

Before long, the group approached the streetlight and could see the person inside it clearly.

It was a woman, holding a staff, wearing a tight-fitting black sorcerer's robe.

Upon seeing her, Celia was slightly taken aback.

This person is dressed similarly to these adventurers, in tight-fitting clothes suitable for combat, showing off their exquisite curves.

Celia glanced at the other person, then looked down at herself, and let out a soft snort.

Hmph, what's so great about being big?

Doris flew at the front, looked at the other person, and suddenly frowned: "You...you are Aimo?"

The female sorceress was also taken aback for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "You recognize me? That's right, I'm Aimo. So you're the expedition team from outside?"

Doris nodded, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "How...how did you end up here?"

A look of resentment crossed Aimo's face: "Of course, it's because I was abandoned by my best teammates!"

These words confused Doris even more.

"Miss Aimo, if I remember correctly, every mage who enters the ruins has a one-time teleportation badge, right? It can teleport you out directly. Why did everyone else leave but you didn't? Could it be that your teleportation badge was stolen?"

Aimo sighed: "That's a long story."

“Then let’s get straight to the point,” Benovia said.

"Why don't you come in first? Monsters might spawn outside and attack you at any time. Talking like this isn't a solution."

The monster attacks did not stop while they were talking. Celia and the others were responsible for killing the monsters, while Doris was responsible for talking to Aimo.

No one moved. The streetlight was an inverted trapezoid, blocked by transparent glass. Putting aside whether it was possible to go in directly, even if it were, Doris wouldn't so easily believe the words of the wise people in the ruins.

What if it's a trap?

What if it's the final boss of the ruins disguised as a human, deliberately luring them in?
In short, anything is possible, especially when they encounter that strange monster in the first phase that wants to exhaust their strength before making them challenge it.

Seeing that the Saintess Squad hadn't moved, Aimo sighed, "It's normal for you to be cautious, but I advise you not to continue killing monsters. Otherwise, when the blood covers the entire city, you'll end up like me, unable to get out."

"Tell me in detail, what happened to you?"

The girls immediately focused their attention.
