Carlos looked around. Only a corner of the ruins in front of him could be seen, and most of it seemed to be hidden. There were bushes and lush trees all around. Other than the part they found, there were no other ruins.
He had encountered this situation before. Some ruins were protected by a layer of magic, and only by breaking this layer of magic could they enter. It was best to have the help of a spellcaster, or they would not even be able to enter. Some ruins were also protected by magic, but it seemed that the magic had been damaged due to the passage of time or some other reason. These ruins would only appear at a specific time, and when the time passed, they would be covered by magic again.
Some ruins were partially exposed, and the other parts were still covered by magic. Of course, most of the ruins were not protected by magic at all, but the valuable things in these ruins had been cleaned out by countless adventurers. There were also some that were buried and needed to be excavated. There were many such ruins in the northern wastelands and deserts, but they were not easy to find.
Obviously, the outer layer of magic of the ruins in front of them was not completely destroyed. Carlos was a little disappointed. He had originally wanted to search the secret realm when he received the mission from the city hall. It should be known that the wizards would give a good reward if they sold the things in good condition in the secret realm. He did not pay much attention to the city hall's warning that the ruins were dangerous and that they would report it immediately after discovering it.
In his opinion, the city hall wanted to scare them because they wanted the things in the ruins. As for the dangers in the ruins, these adventurers knew very well that as long as they were careful, there would not be any big problems. After all, the magic equipment here had basically lost its effectiveness after thousands of years.
"Be careful!" A cry of alarm sounded.
All of a sudden, a dense fog appeared in the surroundings and spread rapidly. In the fog, some black shadows quickly pounced on them. The sudden change caught these adventurers off guard, and a few of them were killed directly before they could react.
"It's a mutant monster, everyone be careful!"
"Quick, get close!"
"Be careful of their sneak attack!"
Under the cover of the fog, the mutant monsters quickly launched attacks, constantly attacking the adventurers. In a short time, the situation became very dangerous.
"Be careful, retreat!"
Carlos roared and rushed forward. The two scimitars in his hands exuded a chilling aura. He waved them like a windmill and slashed at the mutant monster.
Blood flew everywhere as a howl sounded out. Following this, countless saber lights flashed out, and ten or so gashes appeared on the mutated monster's body, and one of its claws was cut off. Carlos had no intention of letting it go. His figure flashed and rushed up again.
A sharp blade light flashed, and the mutated monster's huge head was chopped off. Only then did Carlos breathe a sigh of relief. Even he could not sustain such a high-intensity outburst for a short period of time.
Although he had successfully killed one of the mutated monsters, the situation he was facing did not improve at all. More and more mutated monsters were rushing over from the fog.
"Let's go!"
Seeing this, Carlos's expression changed greatly, and he immediately shouted for retreat. The surrounding adventurers did not hesitate and immediately retreated.
"Blazing Sun Style!"
A Warrior Monk clasped his hands together, and in the next second, a dazzling flame erupted from his body. A violent explosion sounded out, and the scorching flames were filled with a holy aura. A mutated monster was directly sent flying, and the flames continued to burn its body. Black blood slowly seeped out of its head and ears. Evidently, it was not going to survive. The surrounding fog also dispersed a little.
Slash!
Another Warrior heavily slashed down, killing a mutated monster. Then, without taking a breather, he immediately rushed out.
"Charge!"
A Dwarf covered in steel armor rode a strong male goat and rushed out, waving the axe in his hand. A few adventurers immediately followed.
Expeditious Steps!
"Gale Potion!" Seeing that the situation was urgent, Carlos directly opened a bottle of light red potion and had the Dwarf gulp it down.
A bitter taste instantly filled his mouth, and a powerful force instantly entered his body. Carlos's originally very fast speed once again rose to another level. The scimitar in his hand danced even faster, and the charging mutated monster was directly cut into ten or so pieces.
There were a lot of mutated monsters in the fog.
They had a total of 18 people in this operation, including two Warrior Monks, a Dwarf Ram Knight, three Rogues, two Rangers, and five Warriors. Although the City Hall indicated that the danger level of this mission was five stars, they did not take it to heart.
Although these people were few, the whole team was made up of experienced adventurers. Even if they faced enemies more than three times their number, they could easily deal with them. But this time, the number of enemies was too much.
"You guys retreat first! I'll cover the rear! "
Another Warrior Monk saw that the situation was urgent. If they did not escape as soon as possible, they would probably be completely surrounded and killed here.
"Sunlight Burst!"
"Phoenix Flame!"
A dazzling light burst out in an instant, and then infinite flames appeared from his body, instantly turning into a circle of flames that rushed in all directions. Wherever it passed, all the fog dissipated, and even the mutated monsters hiding in the fog were burned to ashes.
The surrounding bushes and weeds were cleared in an instant. The figure of the warrior monk suddenly soared into the air, kicking out a series of afterimages in mid-air. Then, the gravel flew out like a cannonball. The Qi energy attached to the gravel caused cracks to appear on the gravel tens of meters away.
Although those mutated monsters were strong, several of them were killed in an instant under the Warrior Monk's attack, and a path was opened at once.
"Let's go!"
Seeing the passage that appeared, the surrounding adventurers did not hesitate at all. They waved their swords and rushed directly to the gap. In the face of crisis, these people burst out with powerful strength in an instant.
"Diamond Body!"
After seeing everyone rushing up, the Warrior Monk did not dare to delay. Although the strength of a mutated monster was not strong, a large number of them could still exhaust him here.
"Wind Step!"
The Warrior Monk shouted in a low voice, and his body was like a tornado, rushing out in an instant. The surrounding mutated monsters could not stop him at all. The Warrior Monk stepped on these mutated monsters with the tip of his foot.
"Let's go!"
The Warrior Monk's figure shot out from the crowd, and he said with a dignified expression, "Let's leave here first. Find a safe place to inform Northern Town City. "
"The problem here is not something we can solve."
