[Meteor Spear]? What a powerful combat skill! It instantly killed the golem!

However, although "Iron Spear" fell to the ground, it was still hit by a piece of rotting flesh because it was close to the golem.

The stench of the rotting flesh even melted away a section of the chainmail. Fortunately, "Iron Spear" reacted quickly and shook off the piece of rotten flesh, which prevented only a section of his chainmail chest armor from being corroded and damaged.

"Damn it, looks like I'll have to get my chainmail repaired when I get back!"

After Linsel slashed seven or eight times, the flesh golem was finally split into two pieces and became unstable.

Retreat immediately!

He fell backward, and the golem exploded, sending chunks of flesh flying everywhere. He also heard the same explosion from the two golems beside him.

It seems the female knight and "Broken Arrow" were also successfully dealt with.

[Monster Encyclopedia Activated: Flesh Golem defeated. Choose one ability to gain.]

Great! I've gained the twenty-first monster ability!

Linsel then felt something burning on his back. He immediately realized it was a piece of rotting flesh and hurriedly got up to shake it off.

"Captain, the leather armor on your back is somewhat corroded. Are you injured?"

"Broken Arrow" ran over and asked, while Linsel wiped the sweat from his brow.

"No, I shook off that disgusting piece of meat in time."

"Three adventurers, follow me and charge towards the cultist's ritual!"

The female knight had already rushed ahead, and Lindsay saw that in the area of ​​the cave, the cultists were once again confronting the guards.

These guards did a good job; they disrupted the cultists' ritual around the circle of bloodstains, and the cultists' own ritual patterns had already been destroyed by several guards with spears and feet.

"Broken Arrow" picked up his bow and arrows again and fired them one by one at the enemy.

Seeing this, Linsel was not to be outdone. He followed "Iron Spear" and charged up the slightly undulating hillside, then rushed directly down into the cave.

The cultists, already disturbed by the guards, became flustered when they saw three more powerful opponents charging towards them.

Several cult members turned around and tried to forcibly stop Lindsay and his two companions.

However, one of "Broken Arrow's" sharp arrows shot over with a sound, piercing through the body of a cultist who was blocking the way, killing him instantly.

Lindsay raised Brand's sword above his head, and with the help of the long run, slashed down at the cultist blocking his way with both hands.

With a snap, the sound of bones breaking was heard as the long-handled sword pierced through the cultist's shoulder blade, knocking him down from the impact.

Linsel drew his long-handled sword with both hands and slashed down, instantly killing the cultist who didn't even have time to scream.

"Guards, kill!"

The female knight, wielding a fan-shaped shield, knocked down a cultist, while her other hand held a half-sword that plunged into the enemy's chest.

She shouted encouragement, and the guards, having witnessed Lin Sai's swift sword strike that instantly killed the enemy, were instantly ignited with their already strong fighting spirit.

They formed a spear formation, using their shields to ignore the harassment from several nearby enemies, and advanced together.

If it were goblins in this situation, their morale would have collapsed and they would have scattered and fled long ago, but the cultists did not.

They continued their desperate struggle, resisting with their rudimentary weapons, showing no intention of fleeing or surrendering.

However, all resistance was in vain. Lindsay, "Iron Lance," and the female knight charged into the cultists and began to slaughter them. With the help of the guards, within a few minutes, the twenty or thirty cultists were all killed, with not a single survivor.

"We won!!"

The guards raised their spears and cheered loudly.

The battle was temporarily over. Karina took a headcount. Excluding the three guards who had unfortunately died, as well as one adventurer and one traitor,

Apart from a few guards who sustained minor injuries, most of the people present were unharmed.

Linsel then opened his Monster Compendium, preparing to select the newly acquired ability.

However, the "broken arrow" interrupted him.

"Captain, focus! Look! There seems to be something glowing red in that cave!"

Lindsay's eyes peered into the hole indicated by the "broken arrow," and he simultaneously confirmed it with his [darksight].

The cave extends downwards from the ground, pitch black, but just as Brinnan had described, a faint, eerie red light can be seen.

"I saw it too, Sir Knight. What could that be? Another ritual of the cultists?"

"Long Spear" walked to the cave entrance and asked, and Karina gave her answer.

"You're right, adventurer. This is another ritual performed by those cultists. Based on past experiences, if it weren't for the blood-stained circles outside, plus those fleshy monsters that just appeared,..."

The ritual inside must be for summoning those chunks of flesh.

"Then let's go in and disrupt the ceremony!"

"Wait a minute," the female knight urged the silver-level adventurer. "Do you remember your companion who died? He was ambushed when he recklessly entered the wooden house in the city. He could very well encounter the same danger again this time."

"Broken Arrow" was at a loss: "What should we do then? If there are indeed hidden enemies inside the cave, how do we eliminate them?"

"I can't think of any good ideas either. If only we had someone who knew how to scout..." "Iron Spear" raised his pointed spear: "How about I unleash [Meteor Spear] again? It's very powerful, enough to kill the cultists hiding at the cave entrance!"

"No need, I have a way."

The female knight called out to the guards behind her.

"Leon, come here!"

Lindsay noticed a smaller guard among the guards.

"Quickly, bring out your little pet!"

The guard named Leon nodded, and then took out a small mouse from the pocket of his coarse cloth garment beneath his chainmail.

This little mouse is much smaller than the giant rat Linssey encountered when he was doing a quest in Linci Town.

"Haha, Leon, you really can't let go of your little one!"

"Yeah, you take it with you on missions and in battles. I'm a little curious how you keep this little mouse alive."

The guards around him made jokes, while Leon simply nodded to the female knight Karina.

"My lord knight, watch me! Trust in Buzi's abilities!"

He placed the little mouse on the ground and gave a unique whistle. As if receiving a command, the "Squeak" squeaked and darted into its burrow.

Lindsay reopened the panel.
