Chapter 674 Close Combat

Lin Ze held a long sword and fought the bat monster in close combat. His sword moves were sharp and he could cut down several monsters with every swing.

The magicians stood at the end of the team, chanting something and waving their wands. Colorful magical lights gushed out from the tops of their wands. Flames and frost intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable defense line that deterred the ferocious bat monsters.

The warriors stood closely together, forming a solid defensive circle. Holding shields, they stood ready, using their bodies to block the attacks of the bat monsters. The sound of the shields hitting the monsters echoed throughout the space.

However, the number of bat monsters is increasing. They are swarming like locusts, making it difficult to cope with them. Although the magicians and warriors try their best, as time goes by, their physical strength is gradually depleted and they are gradually unable to cope.

Just when everyone felt the pressure doubled, Lin Ze suddenly noticed an abnormality on the black sphere. On the surface of the sphere, there was a place where the light was flickering faintly, which seemed a little dim compared to other places. Lin Ze's mind moved, and he guessed that this might be the weakness of the sphere.

Without hesitation, he shouted loudly: "Everyone cover me!" Before he finished speaking, he rushed towards the black sphere like an arrow.

While rushing towards the sphere, Lin Ze swiftly dodged left and right, skillfully avoiding the attacks of the bat monster. His speed was so fast, like lightning, that it was dazzling.

Finally, after a long and arduous journey, he finally arrived in front of the black sphere. The black sphere was like a huge mystery, exuding a frightening aura.

He stood in front of the sphere, staring at the darkness, taking a deep breath, as if to absorb all the fear into his body. Then, he suddenly jumped high, like a nimble falcon, and the long sword in his hand drew a silver arc in the air, piercing straight at the place where the light was weaker like lightning.

Instantly, there was a loud bang, the sound was deafening, as if the whole world was shaking. The black sphere suddenly exploded like a ignited gunpowder barrel. The huge shock wave spread in all directions at an alarming speed like a violent hurricane.

The surrounding bat monsters had not anticipated this sudden change at all. They were caught off guard by this powerful shock wave. In front of this terrifying force, these bat monsters were like fragile kites, and were swallowed up without a trace in an instant. The scene was like the advent of the end of the world, which was jaw-dropping and could not be described in words.

The light gradually faded, and everyone's eyes gradually adapted to the surrounding environment. When they looked closely, they were surprised to find that a passage had appeared where the black sphere was originally. This passage was deep and dark, like a bottomless abyss, with no end in sight, and seemed to lead to a completely unknown world.

Lin Ze stood at the entrance of the passage, staring at the darkness. Although he felt a little uneasy, he did not hesitate at all.

He turned around resolutely and shouted to the people behind him: "Follow me!" Then, he stepped into the passage without hesitation and led everyone forward.

Everyone followed Lin Ze's steps and entered the passage.

The passage was filled with a damp and decaying smell, and the walls were flashing with a strange green light.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently, and countless thick vines stretched out from the stone walls on both sides of the passage, wrapping around everyone like giant pythons.

The warriors quickly raised their shields to resist, while the magicians used magic to attack the vines.

The long sword in Lin Ze's hand was swung rapidly in the air, emitting bursts of cold light. The vines that tried to approach him broke under the cold light and fell to the ground.

Just as everyone was doing their best to resist these annoying vines, suddenly, a dull sound of footsteps came from the front, as if the entire passage was shaking. Everyone looked in astonishment, only to see a huge figure slowly appearing before their eyes.

It was a stone monster as big as a mountain, its body made of hard rock. Every step it took caused the passage to tremble violently, as if the entire passage was about to collapse under its feet.

The stone monster walked to a distance from the crowd and suddenly opened its huge mouth. A stream of hot magma gushed out like a volcanic eruption, rushing towards everyone.

Seeing this, Lin Ze shouted loudly: "Scatter and hide!" His voice echoed in the passage, and everyone woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly scattered in all directions to avoid the deadly magma.

Lin Ze took the opportunity to observe the stone monster's every move, trying to find its flaws. After some observation, he found that the stone monster's eyes seemed to be its weak point. As long as he could hit its eyes, he might be able to defeat this powerful monster.

So, Lin Ze saw the right opportunity and leaped up high like a nimble swallow. The long sword in his hand drew a graceful arc in the air, and then stabbed the stone monster's eyes fiercely.

With a "puff" sound, the long sword accurately pierced the stone monster's eyes. The stone monster immediately let out a painful roar, his body shook a few times, and finally fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.

As the stone monster fell to the ground, the vibration of the passage gradually stopped, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. However, they did not have much time to breathe, because they did not know what kind of danger was waiting for them ahead.

Lin Ze dusted himself off and signaled everyone to keep going. Not long after they walked, the passage became narrower, and the stone walls on both sides began to slowly squeeze inward.

The magicians hurriedly cast magic to stop it, but to little avail. Just as the passage was about to squeeze everyone into a meat pie, Lin Ze discovered several strange runes on the stone wall.

He tried to touch the rune with his sword, but unexpectedly the stone wall stopped squeezing and slowly retreated to both sides.

As they continued to go deeper, a huge circular hall appeared in front of them. In the center of the hall was a crystal ball emitting a mysterious light, surrounded by four stone statues.

Suddenly, the stone statue came to life and swung a huge stone axe at the crowd.

Lin Ze led the way, leading a group of brave and fearless warriors, rushing towards the hideous stone statues like a tiger descending from the mountain. The weapons in their hands flashed with cold light, and they engaged in a thrilling and life-and-death battle with the stone statues.

At the same time, the magicians stood aside, chanting something, waving their wands, and casting all kinds of powerful magic to support the soldiers. For a moment, flames shot up into the sky, lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the collision of magic and stone statues made loud noises. The whole scene was extremely intense.

However, as time went on, the number of stone statues seemed endless, and the people's physical strength was gradually exhausted, and they gradually became unable to resist. Although they tried their best, the stone statues' attacks became more and more fierce, leaving them in a desperate situation.

At this critical moment, suddenly, the originally calm crystal ball emitted a dazzling light, like a bright meteor across the sky.
