The Divine Beast Bilos had fallen, but the four of them didn't feel happy at all.
"So this is the Auspicious Beast Bilos that guards the border? Poor thing."
She placed a white flower on Bilos' corpse. "You're right, Bilos," Dodoro said calmly.
"Anyway, the mission is more important. Don't think too much about it. Let's go and find the thing."
Lilith said with a sigh.
She was obviously talking to Oro. He stood in front of Bilos' corpse with guilt written all over his face.
After all, he was the one who killed Bilos. As someone who grew up hearing about the Great Sage and the Auspicious Beast Bilos, this was the most heartbreaking thing he had ever experienced.
"She's right. Don't think too much about it, kid. You didn't do anything wrong."
Greer walked over and pulled out the sword in Bilos' hand. He patted Bilos' shoulder and walked toward the well.
"What about that guy? Are we leaving him? "
Dodoro asked.
"It's fine. It's not the first time something like this happened to him. He'll get better," Greer said.
"No, I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about Lin Chade." Dodoro pointed at the Demon King, who was being pressed down by Bilos' head.
"Ugh, don't worry about him." Lilith frowned.
"I don't think that's a good idea. He did help us solve a problem," Greer said.
Lilith frowned and sighed. "Fine. Dodoro, go help him."
"Ah! Me … "
"Go!"
Dodoro reluctantly walked toward Biros' head. Oro, on the other hand, was more spirited and walked over as well.
"What do you think?" Greer asked while looking at the dark well.
The light that entered the well seemed to have been swallowed up. Not a single ray of light could escape, so it was extremely dark down there.
Lilith waved her staff and threw a fireball into the well. The three frowned as they watched the fireball fall.
"It's so deep." Greer rubbed his chin. "It's at least twenty meters deep."
"Should be, but there's no water down there. There's enough air."
"Huh? Are we going down? "Oro had a bad feeling.
Lilith did not answer. She seemed to be thinking about something.
"We don't have such a long rope, and who knows what's down there. Who knows if it's just sealing Biros?" Oro chattered on.
"No, I can feel a strange magic power down there," Lilith suddenly said.
"What if there's a monster like Bilos down there?"
"Oro, don't forget what it means to be an adventurer," Greer said calmly.
"Taking risks isn't the same as courting death!"
Lilith took out a few crystals from her pocket and chanted a few incantations. The crystals emitted a bright light.
"Let's go, Dodoro!" Lilith shouted to Dodoro who was not far away.
"What now?"
"We're going down! Send a few elves to meet us! "
"Alright!"
Suddenly, three green balls of light flew over and flew directly into the bodies of the three people.
"Go down. I will use the Wind Walk Incantation to protect you."
With that said, Lilith prepared to sing.
"Wait! Shouldn't we take our time to plan and prepare properly? We've just finished fighting Biros. Let's take a break. "
"There's no time, Oro. We've been exposed. This place will be flooded by monsters tonight," Greer suddenly said. Oro trembled in fear.
"Alright."
"I'll go down first. You can come down when I'm sure it's safe. If anything happens to me, you can go to the neighboring country. It's better to be a third class citizen than to lose your life."
With that, he jumped down.
"Wind Walk Incantation!"
A gust of wind blew down and wrapped around Greer's body, allowing him to descend slowly.
The two nervously guarded the well. Ten seconds later, they heard a familiar voice.
"Come down! This place stinks like a sewer, but everything else is fine. "
The two sighed in relief and jumped down as well.
"Aren't you going down with them?"
The Demon King looked at Dodoro from afar.
"I'm not stupid enough to jump into a well."
After saying that, she found a flat rock and sat on it. She crossed her legs and just sat there leisurely.
The Demon King was speechless. Dodoro was the strangest one in the team. Perhaps all elves were like this.
"Can you untie me, Dodoro?" The Demon King asked.
"No," Dodoro replied.
"Why not?"
"You stink."
The Demon King sighed. "How about this? I'll give you something good. You can untie me."
Dodoro's eyes lit up when she heard the word "good".
"What is it? You have something good on you? "
She moved closer curiously.
"Yes. Something better than a watch. I promise you'll like it." The Demon King continued.
"Something better than a bracelet?"
Dodoro looked at him with excitement.
…
"Why is there a place like this in the Home of Sorcerers?"
Greer asked with a frown.
Lilith walked past him with her glowing staff. "It's normal for sorcerers to have secrets. Don't be alarmed, little brat!"
Suddenly, she screamed, and a black thing came out from the darkness. Its whole body was covered in black hair, and it was round. It also had four very short little claws.
"What?! Is that an enemy?! "Oro was startled.
"Calm down. It's just a Dust Fairy. I don't know where it came from." Greer was about to crouch down and reach out to grab it, but it jumped and turned into a black shadow and disappeared.
Lilith coughed softly and said, "No wonder I didn't sense its magic. Cut the crap and hurry up and find the thing."
She led the way.
The place looked like an underground palace. The floor was paved with tiles and there were statues of small fire dragons on both sides of the passage.
But why would it be sealed?
With this question in mind, the three of them arrived in front of a black door.
Greer gulped. Even he could feel the terrifying aura coming from the door. He didn't know what was waiting for them.
Lilith chanted a few incantations while Oro readied himself for battle. They nodded to Greer, who then pushed the door open.
To his surprise, the door was very light. The moment he touched it, there was a loud tearing sound. The door collapsed in front of them, raising a cloud of dust.
"Damn it! Cough, cough, cough! This stupid door! "
Greer pulled out his sword and Lilith used a spell to blow away the dust.
"Ah! Ah! Look! "
Oro's face was pale. He pointed at the room and shouted.
The two followed his gaze and saw a pile of skeletons kneeling in the middle of the room. They wore the same robes and held sharp thorns in their hands. The ground was filled with ditches. It wasn't hard to imagine that these were the ditches that led the blood to the center of the room.
In the center of the room, there was a man who seemed to be alive. His hands were tied with chains and he knelt in the pool of dried blood like a sinner. He was biting on a dark red crystal.
"Hey, hey, isn't this the sacrificial ceremony for the evil god? Why would it appear in the home of magicians? "
Greer was shocked.
Lilith, as a magician, looked as if she had lost her soul. Her face was pale as she stared blankly at the scene.
