The strong man knelt on the ground. Before he died, his eyes were full of unwillingness.
After the knight leader eliminated the enemy, he breathed a sigh of relief. The stripes on his skin disappeared and the runes on his chest fell silent.
"Rune Knight?" Enzo's heart moved.
The knight leader guarding the entrance to the underground ruins should be a rune knight, whose nature is somewhat similar to that of the magic knight. They are both advanced versions of the sky knight transformed by witchcraft.
"The man just now, named Lapu, is a first-level wandering apprentice." At this time, Luna whispered.
"First-level apprentice, you also want to compete for the Dark Labyrinth?" Enzo sneered in his heart.
The news of the opening of the Dark Labyrinth made many people lose their minds. Everyone was eager to get some benefit from this feast, but they forgot whether they had the strength.
Although the power of the knights left by Thunder City in the Dark Forest is not enough to stop everyone, it can effectively clear out some miscellaneous fish, such as first-level wandering apprentices like Lapu.
In this way, too many people will not participate in the battle for the dark maze!
Afterwards, the two entered the underground ruins.
The long, narrow and deep cave became darker as night fell, and a layer of mist floated on the surrounding ground, rising continuously.
"The black moon is coming, and the tide of confusion is rising!"
Feeling the fog rising around him, Enzo's eyes flickered. Everything was consistent with the prophecy. If nothing unexpected happened, the night maze was about to appear.
At this time, there was a sound of fighting from ahead.
The two hurriedly hid their bodies. Enzo turned his gaze and found that not far away, there were two wizard apprentices from Thunder City, besieging a fallen person.
"Do we need help?" Luna asked softly.
Enzo shook his head calmly.
Before the Dark Labyrinth opens, all disputes are meaningless. Although Thunder City and the Fallen are mortal enemies, fighting at this time is just a waste of magic power.
The two didn't help, but the two apprentices from Thunder City still worked together to kill the fallen one.
boom!
The ear-splitting roar sounded in vain, like the bells of ancient times, and the mist drifting from the underground ruins suddenly became turbulent in an instant, surging like a tide, swallowing up everything around it.
"what is that!!"
I don't know where it came from, but there was a cry of surprise. In the distant sky, between layers of fog, an ancient and majestic palace suddenly appeared.
"Night maze!" Enzo's pupils shrank.
The mysterious palace suddenly appeared, suspended in the thickest fog. For some unknown reason, at this moment, everyone in the underground ruins looked up and saw it.
For a time, countless figures rushed towards the palace.
Enzo and Luna looked at each other and ran towards the palace in the mist. However, the distance was only visible to the naked eye. It took the two of them half an hour, but there was no sign of arriving.
The palace is still suspended in the mist, as if it is close at hand, but yet out of reach.
"How could this happen?" Enzo stopped.
The palace was right in front of them, but the two of them could not get closer. Even if they ran with all their strength for half an hour, the distance did not change at all.
At the same time, there was another underground ruin.
A bolt of lightning cut through the fog, and Ulysses appeared on the spot. Looking at the palace suspended in the fog, his face became more and more gloomy.
Like everyone else in the underground ruins, Ulysses encountered the same problem. Even if he was an official wizard, he still could not reach the palace.
"Is it a trick left by the goddess of the night?"
A thought flashed through Ulysses' mind, the maze of night was right in front of him, but he had no way of entering it.
Suddenly, a figure flashed through the mist in the sky, like a ghost, quickly closing the distance between himself and the palace.
"How come?" Ulysses was shocked.
In an instant, the figure had appeared in front of the palace, and he pressed a black metal one-eye in his hand to the groove on the main entrance of the palace.
"Damn it! Justin!" Ulysses' heart tightened.
A layer of dark light floated above the palace gate.
The next moment, the palace in the mist seemed to have opened some kind of restriction. In an instant, a deep and silent dark light burst out, gradually twisting and rotating, forming a huge black hole!
Invisible gravity came from it, and the black hole seemed to swallow everything around it. Justin, who held the Key of Night, was the first to fall into it.
Then, Ulysses also felt an invisible gravity. He was startled and his body flew towards the black hole uncontrollably.
"Enzo..." Beside her, Luna's expression changed.
She was also pulled by the black hole, and her body flew into the air involuntarily. Enzo stretched out his hand to hold her, but it was too late.
In the exclamation, Luna's figure disappeared into the mist.
"Chip, scan..."
Enzo quickly turned on the detection function of the chip, but at the next moment, the black hole in the sky suddenly enlarged, like a giant mouth of an abyss, swallowing him in.
"Alert! Subject energy imbalance..."
As the chip alarm sounded intermittently, a strong sense of weightlessness, suffocation and confusion spread throughout his body. Enzo barely managed to stay awake, and a floating island faintly appeared in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, his consciousness completely fell into darkness.
…
After an unknown amount of time, Enzo woke up from his coma.
"here it is……"
Opening his eyes, he was surrounded by an unfamiliar scene. Bright light fell from the sky. Enzo struggled to stand up from the ground. What he saw was a lush virgin forest.
"Chip, scan my body status."
After regaining consciousness, Enzo immediately checked his condition.
The familiar data template in front of him presented Enzo's current body data and status information.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his body, Enzo breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he looked around. This was obviously not an underground ruin, and it might not even be within the Kingdom of Leighton. After Justin put the Eye of Twilight into the groove at the main entrance of the Mist Palace, it seemed that a path to the otherworld had opened.
A large portal in space.
Everyone was sucked into the black hole, which in a sense also verifies the fourth mural in the temple of Essos.
"Is this the inside of the dark maze?"
A thought flashed through Enzo's mind, and he walked forward. After passing through a forest, a cliff appeared in front of him.
When we came to the edge of the cliff, there was nothingness below, like a bottomless hollow abyss, and the land under our feet seemed to be a floating island.
"Chip, detect the surrounding area and generate a data map!" Turning around, Enzo ordered in his mind.
"Ding! Scanning failed due to interference from unknown energy magnetic field..."
