This was a small, dark, and eerie cave.
As it was underground, the walls of the cave were covered in moss and lichens, emitting a cold, faint glow in the darkness.
However, at this moment, a slender and graceful black figure was standing on a small clearing in the center of the crypt. She squatted down and silently carved a strange spell formation on the cold, damp, and hard stone floor.
A small-scale positioning spell formation, 33 mysterious runes, and 288 rune lines. Every stroke and stroke must not have the slightest error. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to guide his master here, he would even trigger a terrifying spell backlash and expose the existence of this secret passage.
Without the spiritual force of a high-ranked Magus, such an arduous and complicated task would be very difficult to complete.
The reason why high-ranked Magi revered spiritual force so much was because it allowed them to maintain data processing and spiritual force perception that was comparable to a 'superbrain'. High-ranked and above spell formations would easily have hundreds of spell runes stacked densely together. As for the wizard lines that guided the flow of energy, they were as thin as silk and as dense as a cow's hair.
Without a godly brain, it was impossible to use such a thing.
And this was just a high-ranked spell formation!
As for the super spell formations, they were even more terrifying, becoming three-dimensional.
In order to memorize the complicated rune lines and the witchcraft runes that were as dense as the stars in the sky, one would have to grow a huge brain like the heterotopic brain to complete such a terrifying mission if one did not have super strong mental strength.
After spending half a day, Emelia finally completed the positioning spell formation.
She used her spiritual force to scan the spell formation a few more times, making sure that there were no mistakes. Only then did she take out a dozen high-ranked magic crystals from her bosom, carefully placing them in a few of the spell formation's energy cores.
After a while, Emelia finally activated the spell formation.
A faint glow of energy flowed out from the energy cores, flowing along the guiding wizard lines that had been drawn in advance. Wherever it passed, all the spell runes, magic nodes, and spell lines were lit up.
An almost undetectable wave of magic began to surge in the cave, passing through the stone walls and rock layers, slowly traveling into the distance.
Moments later, as if receiving a response from afar, the spell formation began to operate more frequently.
From the moment the spell formation began to operate, the changes in energy could no longer be concealed or shielded. Strange roars and roars could be vaguely heard from countless layers of rock, followed by the sounds of the rock walls collapsing.
The rock walls shattered layer by layer, and the strange roars grew closer and closer.
Emelia lowered her head to look at the positioning spell formation that had already been activated to its limits. She gritted her teeth and immediately armed herself, charging into the darkness without looking back.
Shortly after, concentrated explosions of spells could be heard from the depths of the secret passage, mixed with the furious roars of the fungus giant and the strange sounds of its cavities cracking.
At this critical moment of life and death, a two-metre-tall human silhouette suddenly appeared in the center of the positioning spell formation. The air was filled with the whistling sound of energy flowing. Bits and pieces of fire elements were separated from the void, and like moths flying into a flame, they flew into the human-shaped shadow.
Gradually, the silhouette's appearance became clearer, showing signs of turning from illusory to solid.
As if dissatisfied with the speed at which the silhouette was condensing, Grimm's crisp and clear voice came from the void.
As if dissatisfied with the speed at which the silhouette was condensing, Grimm's crisp and clear voice came from the void.
"This is too slow, all of you, get over here!"
As a majestic spiritual will appeared in the silhouette, the entire underground space suddenly became dark red. Countless fire elemental particles were extracted from the void by the powerful will, gathering into the silhouette like rivers returning to the sea.
Grimm's hands, feet, shoulders, back, chest, abdomen, head, and all the organs in his body began to grow in an almost transparent manner, quickly fusing into a whole body.
* Thud! *
Grimm stepped out of the positioning spell formation with the flaming coral staff in hand. His powerful spiritual force swept out in all directions, and in an instant, he understood everything within a few dozen miles.
With his powerful spiritual sense, he could clearly see that he was in a narrow secret passage in a huge underground labyrinth. 60 meters in front of him, Emelia had already transformed into a 'demonic woman' with countless rattan tentacles, desperately defending against the attacks of a few tall fungus giants.
Although Emelia had the title of 'demonic woman', she was actually just a plant-type Wizard who specialized in crafty tactics. When it came to crafty and changing tactics, she was definitely one of the best among grade 2 Wizards.
However, when it came to direct confrontation, she was obviously not a match for the fungus giants.
Not to mention, one of the Fungus Giants was a Tier 3 Advanced Monster. If it wasn't for the fact that Gargamel had poured his heart and soul into this daughter of his and equipped her with the best magic tools he could find, she wouldn't have been able to survive until Grim arrived.
Emelia's rope-like rattan tentacles surged madly towards the fungus giant that had broken through the wall, but the latter's thick and powerful tentacles wrapped around and tore her tentacles into pieces. Green juices flowed all over the ground.
Emelia's petite body lit up with four or five green orbs of light.
With the support of so many wizard artifacts, Emelya endured the pain and roared in anger, producing more and denser rattan tentacles to entangle the fungus giant that was attacking crazily.
Win with numbers, win with quality with quantity …
Emelia was like a demonic woman with infinite regenerative abilities. Dense, strange rattan tentacles stretched out from her body and blocked the way of the fungus giants. Even though the tentacles outside of her body were torn apart and green juice splattered everywhere, Emelia did not take a step back and firmly guarded the secret passage that led to the underground cave.
Sensing the increasingly intense energy fluctuations in the depths of the secret passage, the fungus giants attacked even more fiercely. Meanwhile, the Tier 3 Giant roared and charged into the rattan array, struggling madly to get to the center of the array.
Even with the help of many magic tools, it was futile to fight against a Grade 3 enemy with a Grade 2 body.
As the Grade 3 giant got closer and closer to Emelia, the indigo and purplish-black tentacles were about to touch her body, a gentle male voice that she had been waiting for a long time finally echoed in her mind.
"Alright, you can rest now. I'll take over from here!"
It was the master!
Hearing this voice, Emelia's heart relaxed, and the thousands of pain that came from the end of her body overlapped and instantly engulfed her soul.
Emelia screamed and almost fainted.
All the rattan tentacles that were flying in the air drooped down, having lost their spiritual control.
The Grade 3 fungus giant that had lost its rattan tentacles roared and took a step forward, its thick and powerful tentacles smashing towards Emelia.
"How dare you act so presumptuously in front of me …"
A tall figure appeared just in time, grabbing Emelia's limp body. He raised his staff high in his other hand and blocked the incoming tentacle with brute force.
The crimson staff and the indigo and purplish-black tentacles clashed in the air, and the sizzling sound of flames could be heard from the point of contact.
"Ah …"
The terrifying flames caused the Grade 3 fungus giant indescribable pain. It staggered back a few steps, regaining its footing before looking at the other side with a serious expression. On the surface of its limp tentacle, a charred scar could be seen clearly.
"Grade 4 … You're a Grade 4!"
The Grade 3 fungus giant was knowledgeable, and was able to discern Grimm's identity based on the fire elemental aura emanating from his body. Soon after, its gaze fell on Emelia, and a trace of shock and anger suddenly appeared on its ugly greenish-grey face.
"Emelia … You have the aura of Emelia's soul on you! You're the Magical Spore Princess that escaped … "
Grimm paid no heed to the other party's fuss, and reached out to brush Emelia's forehead. As a strand of spiritual force seeped in, Emelia's intense pain was instantly reduced by half.
"So, do you want to keep this guy alive or kill him?" Grimm asked calmly.
From his tone, it seemed like killing a 'puny' Grade 3 fungus giant would be a piece of cake!
"Uncle Elson, are you willing to follow Fawnson and commit evil, or are you willing to follow me again? I'll only give you this one chance … "Emelia raised her beautiful face, and her gaze fell on the Grade 3 fungus giant's body.
The Grade 3 fungus giant's face revealed a sinister expression, and it raised its huge tentacle once more.
"Emelia, stop being so hypocritical. Since when have we, the Fungus Giants, ever had true freedom? You shouldn't have come back, die! "
With that, the thick tentacle swung down, and the howling wind it brought was even fiercer than before.
"Hmph, you don't know what's good for you …"
Grimm snorted, and without anyone noticing, a faint red elemental barrier shot out from his body, enveloping all the fungus giants in it.
Burning Domain …
Such an elemental barrier might not be enough to deal with opponents of the same tier, but against a large number of low-tier enemies, it was a terrifying killing weapon.
The moment the Burning Domain was formed, all the fungus giants burst into flames, and their entire bodies began to burn.
The Grade 3 fungus giant was no exception!
