Chapter 92

(Listen, listen, listen (Great thanks to 'Dancing with Maple' for the tip!))

The warriors all used their combat skills, and the mages in the rear had no reason to use minor spells anymore. They stopped casting spells continuously, gathered a large amount of mana, and the incantations they chanted became longer and faster, indicating they were preparing to use powerful spells.

The combat skills of seventh-rank warriors were undoubtedly very powerful, but the black stone spiders were not weak either. They had no combat skills or magic, only super-strong bodies. Therefore, although they howled in pain when hit by the seventh-rank warriors' combat skills, from the surface, it was hard to see any damage.

The black stone spiders became even more frenzied when injured. They could not get close to the mages who kept hurting them, nor could they force back the warriors fighting them. So, they could only open their large mouths and spit out stone spikes.

The stone spikes shot by the black stone spiders were not comparable to those of the previous stone spiders. The black stone spiders shot black stone spikes, and perhaps due to their size, the black stone spikes they shot were incredibly thick, with offensive power almost as strong as the combat skills and spells!

The seventh-rank mages, of course, would not be killed by the stone spikes like the weaker mages earlier. Although the attack was sudden, they were well-prepared. They raised their wands, and magic shields appeared in front of them, blocking all the stone spikes.

Was it so easy to block the black stone spiders' stone spikes? The answer was definitely no!

Although the seventh-rank mages were not injured, the magic shields that could normally withstand two or three hits from a peer were shattered by the stone spikes, showing how powerful the stone spikes were. After all, they were the only ranged attack of the stone spiders, and their power was naturally not weak.

Seeing the black stone spiders about to continue shooting stone spikes, the warriors in front immediately roared and charged from different directions at the nearest black stone spider. Layers of fighting aura surged on their weapons as they slashed at the black stone spider.

The black stone spiders, though not very intelligent, knew how to dodge. Faced with the attack, they could only stop the stone spikes they were about to shoot and angrily engage in combat with the warriors again.

At this moment, one of the seventh-rank mages finally finished the long and rapid incantation. He raised his wand, and in an instant, the temperature in the air rose significantly. A huge wave of fire formed and rushed towards the black stone spiders.

At the same time, several seventh-rank warriors retreated in unison, coming to the front of the mages. The black stone spiders wanted to pursue, but the wave of fire that came at them forced them back. The black stone spiders could only spray stone spikes to disperse the fire wave.

After dispersing the fire wave, the black stone spiders wanted to continue pursuing, but another seventh-rank mage finished his incantation and released a large-scale spell. The ground where the black stone spiders stood began to tremble, and several black stone spiders seemed to sense danger, screaming loudly.

However, this did not stop anything. A sharp spike suddenly emerged from the ground, cutting off one of the black stone spider's legs. Immediately, countless spikes shot out from the ground at incredible speed, piercing the black stone spiders.

The black stone spiders screamed in agony as the spikes mercilessly pierced their bodies. Strangely, they even bled green blood, unlike the previous stone spiders, which had no blood at all.

The area where the black stone spiders were located was quickly filled with spikes, and the black stone spiders, now injured, went completely mad.

However, before they could launch an attack, the other seventh-rank mages also stopped their incantations. Several huge lightning bolts appeared from all directions and struck the black stone spiders.

After several loud explosions, the black stone spiders were severely injured by the combined attack of the fifteen seventh-rank individuals. Green blood flowed everywhere, and under the attacks of the spikes and lightning, some lost legs, others had scorched flesh, and they screamed as if trying to leave their final cries in this world...

Seeing this, the seventh-rank warriors knew that the best time to finish off the wounded was at hand. They picked up their weapons and rushed to the injured black stone spiders, unleashing their combat skills.

After a series of continuous attacks, the ten black stone spiders finally completed their initial and final appearance, their massive bodies falling to the ground, one after another, dead...

"Oh!!!"

The treasure-hunting team, seeing their strongest members finally defeat these powerful monsters, cheered loudly, raising their weapons and excitedly beating the ground to express their joy.

At this moment, their morale had reached its peak!

Wu Yan, Chrysanthemum, and Miku had witnessed the entire battle and exchanged glances, nodding in agreement.

Wu Yan broke the silence first, saying to the two women, "These fifteen seventh-rank individuals are quite strong. They managed to kill ten black stone spiders of the same rank without any injuries. Although factors like numbers, equipment, and coordination played a role, it's undeniable that if they were our opponents, they would be quite troublesome..."

Wu Yan had to raise this issue. From the battle, it was clear that these individuals were somewhat cold and ruthless, not intervening even when their subordinates were injured. If they found the treasure and Wu Yan and his group attacked, they would undoubtedly be killed without hesitation!

Although Wu Yan had already exchanged for items that could ensure their safe departure, he really didn't want to use them, as it would mean they were in a very dangerous situation!

Chrysanthemum and Miku nodded in agreement. Even Miku, who was stronger than any of the fifteen seventh-rank individuals, would not fare much better if attacked without the help of the items...

"Master..."

Hearing Ikaros' voice, Wu Yan, Chrysanthemum, and Miku immediately turned their heads towards her. The focused gaze made Ikaros, with her personality, feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Ikaros, has a new situation arisen?"

Wu Yan had a reason to ask this. Normally, Ikaros would remain silent like a loyal guard unless something happened.

"Yes..." Ikaros softly said, "A very powerful life force is approaching..."

"A very powerful life force?" Since it was detected by Ikaros, it meant it was not someone hiding like them, which meant...

Ikaros' deep red eyes flickered, and she said, "There are three, two with A-level strength, and one with S-level strength!"

"S!" Wu Yan, Chrysanthemum, and Miku were greatly shocked.

A-level strength was on par with Ikaros, capable of causing harm to her. S-level strength was a threat even to Ikaros!

Such a powerful entity was approaching?

How could Wu Yan and the others not be shocked?

Of course, the people on the field, who were still celebrating, did not know about this. Thus, these people, still in their joy, did not realize that their last moments were about to arrive...

The fifteen seventh-rank individuals, who had been standing calmly and receiving the adoration of the crowd, suddenly felt a deathly aura enveloping them, causing them to shudder and their faces to change.

"Run!"

One of the seventh-rank individuals, unable to withstand the overwhelming sense of death, took two steps back and screamed hysterically.

This cry not only stunned everyone on the field but also made the other seventh-rank individuals shudder again. They exchanged glances, struggling with their decision.

The reason for their struggle was simple: should they abandon the treasure to save their lives, or did they think this premonition of death was just a trick to scare them?

In this moment, they all lost their last chance to save their lives...
