Abel had been in the Lila Valley for three days now. During these three days, he had been training as a Knight in the valley during the day and clearing out hell creatures in the Dark World at night. With the help of Flying Flame, the clearing speed had become even faster.
Abel was riding on Black Wind with his summons. There were five ravens flying in the sky, and Flying Flame was flying a little higher. It just got a new attack, so it couldn't wait to show it off. This was also a good way to familiarize itself with its new ability.
In front of them, a group of 100 giant orangutan-like animals appeared in their vision. These animals were very powerful, and they were very fast.
Since Flying Flame was flying the highest, it was the first to notice them. Although it knew the dragon roar was useless against these hell creatures, it still let out a few roars out of habit and flew straight towards the group of animals. The animals also noticed Flying Flame in the sky, and they kept roaring towards the sky.
Flying Flame welcomed these animals with a white ball. This white ball turned into a beam of white light and landed in the middle of the animals. The white ball silently exploded, and it turned into a white flame. All the animals within a radius of 10 meters were burned to ashes.
This was Flying Flame's new ability. It could use a compressed fireball to throw at a target. When it made contact with the ground, it would explode and attack all the creatures within a radius of 10 meters. The level of the white flame was very high, and it could basically kill all the hell creatures in an instant. Since Flying Flame didn't need to use the compressed fireball much, it didn't need to worry about the number of times it could be used.
Flying Flame's original dragon breath ability didn't increase the number of times it could be used. It still needed to recover after 10 times before it could use it again. However, the range of its attack was much wider than before, and the duration of its breath was longer. Since Flying Flame's breath was calculated based on the amount of time it took to spit out the white flame, the longer the duration, the more damage it could do to the enemy.
When Abel arrived with his summons, the number of animals had already decreased to a single digit. He was only there to clean up the battlefield.
Abel was already used to Flying Flame's power. Originally, it would take a long time to clean up the Dark Wasteland, but now it was a lot faster with Flying Flame's help.
"That is?" After Abel finished cleaning up the last beast, he saw a dilapidated building on a plain in front of him.
He rode Black Wind to the front of the ruined building and found that it was a square building made of huge stones. He did not know what kind of power had destroyed it, but only the broken walls were left. It seemed that he had finally found the Countess' residence, the Forgotten Tower.
Abel turned to Flying Flame and said, "Flying Flame, stay outside!"
Flying Flame looked at the entrance that was just big enough for it to enter, and then looked at its own feet that were not good at walking. It lowered its head and flew to the top of the Forgotten Tower. It seemed like it was going to stand guard for its master.
Abel looked at the entrance of the Forgotten Tower, but he did not go in first. Instead, he sent the 5 spirit guardian Knights in. Soon, he heard the sound of fighting coming from inside. After he brought the summons in, he saw the 5 giant animals fighting against the spirit guardian Knights.
In a small space, the 5 giant animals were fighting against the 5 spirit guardian Knights. Since they were fully armed and had a knight's spear that could knock back enemies, the 5 spirit guardian Knights could not use their Blink. However, under the attack of the Knight's spear, they could not fight back at all.
In this small space, the animals could not retreat too much. Just like that, they were knocked back by the spirit guardian Knights and could not move anymore. They were constantly stabbed by the Knight's spear. The knockback effect of the Knight's spear made the animals feel like they were stuck in the wall, and the death qi on the spear was steadily reducing their life force.
When Abel entered the Forgotten Tower, he could already see the result of the battle. With the surge of mana in his hand, a "charging bolt" spell was unleashed, taking away the last bit of life force of the 5 animals.
At first, Abel was worried that the poison creepers would not be able to pass through the stone tiles. However, after seeing the poison creepers poking out from the stone tiles, he felt like he had underestimated these low-level Druil summons.
At this moment, he finally had the time to carefully examine his surroundings. No matter if it was the floor, the walls, or the ceiling, they were all burnt black. The original decorations were all destroyed by the fire, leaving only a piece of burnt black on the original stone walls.
It was also because of this fire that the originally hidden entrance to the dungeon was no longer covered. The black hole was like a giant mouth that could eat people. It looked very scary in the dim light.
Abel took out the luminous pearl from his portal bag and hung it on the shoulder of his armor. Suddenly, the surroundings were lit up. He could see through the entrance of the dungeon and see the ladder that led down.
He ordered the 5 spirit guardian Knights to go down first. They did not need the ladder. After a few flashes, the spirit guardian Knight disappeared into the hole. Abel carefully sensed that there was no sound of fighting. It seemed like it was still safe down there.
Black Wind stepped on the creaking stairs and walked down the entrance of the dungeon. The luminous pearl illuminated a small room in front of him. This should be a guard room, guarded by the warriors in charge of guarding the dungeon.
There were only some rotten bones on the ground and some broken wooden tools. However, the air here was not turbid. It seemed like when this dungeon was first designed, they had considered the issue of ventilation. Even after such a long time, the air here could still be freely changed.
In the corner of the guard room was a passage leading down. The iron door had long been corroded and only the edges were left. Under Abel's command, the 5 spirit guardian Knight flashed and rushed into the passage.
Black Wind and his summons also entered the passage. The passage was not long. It was a flight of stairs made of stone that led downwards. After walking down the stairs for a few dozen steps, they saw lights in front of them. It was the light of the everlasting lamp.
The everlasting lamp was a kind of lamp oil that was refined with a special kind of oil through alchemy. Although the flame of this oil was not very bright, it was very durable. With the help of a corresponding sensing circle, it would automatically light up when someone entered and extinguish when they left. This made it so that the everlasting lamp could last for thousands of years.
This kind of everlasting lamp was normally used in large family tombs, but it added a touch of gloominess to this dungeon. Although Abel had the luminous pearl to illuminate him, it still could not light up the entire dungeon. The luminous pearl that was supposed to be bright was now a little dim.
After getting used to the brightness of the dungeon, Abel first noticed the 4 wooden barrels in front of him. He didn't know if these barrels were newly made or were originally placed here. Although they were a little old, they were not damaged.
What was in these barrels? Abel didn't dare to break them open himself. He still remembered the exploding barrel mechanism that was used the most in the Dark World. As long as he broke open a barrel, it would release a powerful fire element that would attack the surrounding life through the explosion.
Flying Flame was not here. Other than Abel, the spirit guardian Knight captain had the highest defense in this place. When it turned on its fire enchantment, its fire resistance would reach an extremely high level.
The spirit guardian Knight captain flashed and appeared next to the 4 barrels. It struck down with its long spear and directly shattered one of the barrels. This barrel was empty.
However, this strike from the spirit guardian Knight captain made Abel very nervous. Luckily, there was nothing inside. If there was something good inside, it would be destroyed. He quickly ordered the spirit guardian Knight captain to go easy on it.
Although there were only 4 barrels, it was still a rare experience for Abel. The spirit guardian Knight captain's second strike was much weaker. After the second barrel was split open, an angry roar emerged from inside. It seemed like the strike just now had awakened the sleeping hell creature.
