"I'm the captain, and the decision-making power lies with me."

"You little brat, right?! Gao Wen, if you dare to go there, I will complain to your mother and sister."

Gao Wen raised his head, his face full of question marks.

After a long silence, Luo Qixi sighed:

"The Devil's Cave is fine, but are you going to the Dragon God's Cave and Hell later?"

Gawain denies:

"Of the three great labyrinths, only the Demon God's Cave is related to the ancient ruins."

Luo Qixi was puzzled:

"How did you know?"

Gao Wen answered confidently:

"I went there when I was bored a few years ago, but I didn't waste time going deeper. Hell is a very boring place. It's okay to just enjoy the scenery. The Dragon God Cave is basically a misunderstanding. It's just a cave."

Luo Qixi was so interested in this topic that if Gawain was unwilling to talk about it, she wouldn't even mind pretending to be cute and begging him:

"cave?"

"It's just the lair of an oversized red dragon that can't clean up its own shit. It probably has the strength of a lower-ranked strong. It's a very weak and useless pet."

Luo Qixi was very familiar with Gawain's evaluation of the upper and lower ranks of the strong. She silently complained:

"How are the lower-ranking powers weak?"

Gao Wenrui commented:

"Even tied together, they can't withstand a punch from a superior power. How can you be considered weak? So, you are not allowed to call the Armored Dragon King your lord. Putting aside the aerial fortress and the familiar, I don't think he can defeat you."

Luo Qixi raised her head, and her whole body swelled up:

"real or fake?"

"Don't say stupid things."

Luo Qixi, with her nose turned up high, was daydreaming:

"Could it be that the King in the Armored Dragon King refers to the King level?"

Gao Wen was too lazy to pay attention to her.

He even quietly moved his seat to the side and buried his head deeper.

In short, the first stop of Senis's rescue plan is determined to be the legendary maze [Demon Cave].

Note: The Dragon God Hole is located at Longming Mountain, the highest peak in the Human Realm. Based on the story of "Ancient Dragons," it's 99.99% likely the lair of the Red Dragon King, the mount of the Demonic Dragon King Laplace. Incidentally, before her amnesia, the maidservant Elina Lijie was the Red Dragon King's executive poop scooper.

Chapter 56 Entering the Demon Cave

Chapter 56: Traveling Together (16)

"Wow! They say there's nothing in the middle of the Lingus Sea, but what's with that mountain?"

Magic Armor Lokishi was carrying a huge bag and making a fuss in Gawain's arms.

Gao Wen used the same tone as introducing his new home to a friend:

"It's not a mountain, it's just exercise equipment."

"Exercise equipment?!"

"It's the kind of tool you lift and lift to exercise."

"I know! Please don't always make me fuss!"

Roxy had become completely numb to someone's outrageous behavior. After all, she was just a magic tutor, and other misdeeds couldn't be blamed on her. But she couldn't help but complain:

"Isn't it because you, Gawain, are so unrestrained that you're being targeted by strange gods?!"

She seemed to be constantly worried about the good and evil of humans and gods.

Gao Wen defended himself:

"Before the Great Shift, I was very reserved. I guessed that the gods in the human world might still be alive, so I didn't show off too much during training. Sylphy was the only one who knew my true strength."

Luo Qixi turned her head away with a sour look:

"You better really be!"

Gawain saw what Lokisi was worried about, and he comforted her based on his own values:

"Don't worry, Roxy. At least from the perspective of human history, Hitogami can't be considered an evil god."

Even if the other five worlds were destroyed by Him, Gawain would only think that the other party was full of martial virtue. After all, the other party had nothing to do with the "evil" in Gawain's concept. What's more, unless the other party had a problem with his brain, he would definitely cooperate with him.

Luo Qixi hummed:

"Anyway, I won't be the one being tricked and crying, so don't expect me to comfort you."

Gao Wen was helpless. Rationally speaking, he had already done everything he could. The rest was just a matter of probability, so he skipped the topic.

"The entrance to the Demon God's Cave is right here."

The place where he trained before was less than a thousand kilometers away from the entrance of the Demon Cave, which was very close. However, the difference in magic density between the two places could only be described as a world of difference. Gawain's gym was a barren desert, while this side was so suffocating that it could suffocate people to death.

If you can't sense magic power or can't fly, it will be very difficult to find the entrance to the Demon Cave.

This is a hole in the central area of ​​the Lingus Sea, with a diameter of only 50 meters. It is surrounded by reefs and is constantly spewing out seawater. It looks like a fountain, but its scale is not even as large as any of the gorgeous fountains in the courtyard of the Silver Palace, which were carved by skilled craftsmen using a combination of magical technology.

Gawain pointed over there, but Lokisi didn't notice it for a long time. After all, any wave could cover up his tracks.

After getting closer to within a thousand meters, Luo Qixi finally began to feel creepy:

"This place... lives up to its reputation..."

Gao Wen asked curiously:

"Have you opened your magic eye?"

Luo Qixi swallowed her saliva:

"No, it's the aura that's completely off. The most dangerous maze I've ever conquered is as insignificant as a grain of sand in front of it."

Gawain didn't feel any of these mysterious things at all. He simply felt that the air quality in this place was not good, and the magic density was incredible:

"After all, it's a legendary maze that was born from the final outcome of the Second Human-Demon War."

In short, the reason for its birth is the same as that of the Lingus Sea. However, the Lingus Sea was born from the power of the blow that created the world, while the Demon Cave was composed of countless creatures that died in that blow.

Luo Qixi started to back down:

"Are we really going in? I don't feel good..."

Gao Wen admitted:

"It's really not good. I've gone in briefly to take a look before."

Luo Qixi was about to burst into tears:

"Ugh, I wanted to hear you say something soothing and cool like, 'It's just a demon cave!' But if even you think it's dangerous, I'm definitely going to die!"

Gawain tilted his head:

"Dangerous? I think it's easy to get lost."

"Huh? Lost? Shouldn't you have punched through the walls, floor, and ceiling one by one and flew straight to the Guardian's Gate?"

"But you taught me not to do that."

Luo Qixi stopped talking again.

Gao Wen once again suspected that his earlier skill of "giving up communication" had been learned by this little ice-blue creature:

"Anyway, we have sufficient supplies, and with your experience, it won't take long to complete the exploration. There won't be any problems."

The secretly shy Luo Qixi silently retorted in her heart, my experience and so on are definitely useless in a place like this, and all the supplies are brought to me for use, am I really not a burden?

They came to the top of the cave.

"Okay, get ready to enter the maze."

After Gawain finished speaking, he took Lokixi and dropped directly into the cave entrance. In one second, they reached the bottom of the two thousand meter deep cave.

"This should be the first level."

Hearing this, Lokixi raised her head. Above her was a cavity so high that the sky could not be seen. All around her were turbulent water, or waves, flowing upstream. Within the water wall, one could vaguely see sea dragons that looked like fish and snakes wandering around, and occasionally a few of them jumped out of the water wall and jumped into the other side.

It is a very dreamy scene. People with normal mental state would find it difficult to produce such an image even when dreaming.

So, this is clearly a reality.

What's even more bizarre is that the entire ocean is above. This is not a dream. Although there is no solid ceiling support, there are thick pillars on this first level. Their tops are connected to the bottom of the ocean, making the entire ocean the ceiling of the maze. Below the pillars is a vast lake with land occasionally exposed.

The sky and the earth are both “sea”.

Luo Qixi suspected that she had eaten too many mushrooms:

"This...how do we get here?"

Gawain did not laugh at her for being useless, but flew with her in one direction:

"I still know the entrance to the second floor."

Soon, they found an island in the middle of a lake. There was a spiral staircase leading downwards in the center of the island. They didn't need to set foot in the lake or worry about the monsters in the lake. They passed the level like cheating.

After flying down around the stone stairs and going more than 500 meters underground, Gawain and Lokisi arrived at a space that looked like the interior of a fortress. The concentration of magic here was even higher than above, and it could even automatically activate the magic eye module in the helmet, forcing them to take off the helmet to see normally.

There was no trace of water on the floor or ceiling.

But the scene above was equally shocking and beautiful. It was an artificial sky full of stars, shining so brightly that it seemed like a fantasy.

"so beautiful."

After landing on the ground, Loki felt that she had done nothing but marvel at the scenery.

This is not the place to conquer a maze!

She was quite dissatisfied with her performance and immediately made amends:

"It's very similar to many ancient styles that still exist in the Demon Continent. This floor should be the ancient ruins that were swallowed by the maze."

Gawain nodded:

"It's somewhat similar to the interior of Nekros Fortress."

Lokixi: Damn it!

Chapter 57: Gao Wen: Promise? Never heard of it.

Chapter 57: Traveling Together (17)

What was beyond Luo Qixi's expectation was:

Exploring the Demon Cave is not difficult.

This is not because she is bragging because she has her old man to lead her, but the undead and monsters she encountered along the way were not difficult to deal with. Although they were almost all types she didn't recognize or had never heard of, fighting them was no big deal. Even she could handle them easily.

The real problem is:

"How big is this place..."

It had been more than twelve hours since they entered the second level, and Luo Qixi could not help but feel tired. The ancient ruins under the stars in the cave were indeed beautiful and interesting, but she had never wished so much that the interior of a maze could be simpler.

Three hours ago, Lokisi had stopped attacking and was conserving her magic power. Gawain had dealt with all the monsters with his fists and feet. She had originally not wanted to interfere with him, but after watching him fight and rush around like a magic puppet for hours, she became concerned about his mental state and finally couldn't help but chat with him.

"Speaking of which, Gawain, after this incident is over, shall we go explore a medium-sized maze together that doesn't require much combat power?"

Gao Wen was puzzled:

"why?"

Luo Qixi's face was stiff:
