Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Arrows from the tower rained down like rain. Under this dense firepower, the shadow clone holding the ironwood round shield was quickly shot into a sieve, and the other shadow clone carrying Sybil's body was about to collapse.

At this moment, Jiang Ran suddenly appeared out of thin air behind the shadow clone, and after taking Sybil's body, he disappeared without a trace in an instant. The whole process took less than two seconds.

The "disappeared" Jiang Ran appeared in the woods 15 meters away with the corpse. He let the small motorcycle carry the corpse towards the exit of the maze, while he ran to the main road to attract the enemy's attention.

In the previous moment, Jiang Ran first used the "Shadow Escape Step" to teleport to the shadow clone, and then used the "Double Shadow Escape Step" to take the corpse away. This was the first time that the "Double Shadow Escape Step" was used in actual combat.

In the next 300 seconds, Jiang Ran was unable to use the "Double Shadow Escape Step" again, but it didn't matter because he had already planned how to shake off the pursuers.

·

On the road outside the Goblin Orchard, Jiang Ran, carrying only a black sword and a Flame Dragon Horse, was running at full speed. Three to five hundred meters behind him, the Goblin Wolf Riders were approaching rapidly.

In this mountainous terrain, giant wolves have stronger adaptability than traditional war horses. The giant wolves with extremely flexible bodies can walk on rugged mountains as if they were flat ground.

Every time Jiang Ran ran, he would look back to confirm the distance between himself and the pursuers. At the same time, he was gradually approaching the "action location" he had confirmed in advance.

When the opportunity came, Jiang Ran immediately threw a smoke bomb and rushed into the smoke.

The sudden appearance of white smoke forced the Goblin Wolf Cavalrymen who were chasing them to slow down. However, the leading Wolf Cavalryman captain immediately shouted loudly, calming the panic of the cavalrymen, and took the lead to rush into the smoke.

After entering the smoke, the wolf cavalry captain continued to gallop for a few steps, then immediately realized that something was wrong and yelled at the entire team to stop.

It turned out that there was a cliff not far ahead of the smoke.

If the wolf cavalry captain was not familiar with the surrounding terrain, many wolf cavalrymen would probably fall off the cliff.

However, a question immediately arises: since there is a cliff ahead, where did that human go?

At the captain's command, the goblins went down to the ground and began to look for traces of humans. The giant wolves also sniffed the ground with their noses to find the scent of humans.

But no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find the human's whereabouts. It was as if the human boy had disappeared out of thin air in the smoke, and all the clues ended here.

"Sly fellow... If I see him again, I will tear him into pieces!" (Goblin)

The wolf cavalry captain cursed viciously, spat, and led his team back to the orchard camp.

On a hillside not far from the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, Jiang Ran watched the entire search process of the Wolf Cavalry with a telescope. After they retreated, Jiang Ran set out to meet up with Xiao Moto.

The combination of smoke bombs and Shadow Step, combined with complex terrain with high and low differences, is really useful for escaping.

Jiang Ran had to admit that Bingjixing Shirley was really good at judging people. It was hard to say how good he was at fighting head-on, but when it came to the ability to escape, he was really not far behind.

·

Half an hour later, Jiang Ran successfully reunited with Xiao Moto. When he saw Xiao Moto, Jiang Ran happened to see Xiao Moto kicking a wild wolf to death. He felt that Xiao Moto's kick was probably heavier than his punch.

Afterwards, Jiang Ran untied Sybil's body from the back of the small motorcycle. After a search, he found two bottles of powerful magic potions and a roll of parchment on Sybil.

Jiang Ran drank a bottle of magic potion, then opened the parchment, which read:

━━━━━━━━━━

Mission 1: Kill the death row prisoners entering from the entrance of Dris Town;

Mission 2: Protect the safety of Viviana Scarlet;

━━━━━━━━━━

(Those death row prisoners were indeed sent here to be killed.)

(But why did the Scarlet Qi family kill the other two teams?)

(It's understandable that he needs to protect Viviana, but does it really need to be listed as a separate task?)

Jiang Ran vaguely felt that these two tasks were more like hinting at the "stages" of this maze expedition.

The first stage goal of the Feiqi family is to kill the other two teams, and the second stage goal is to protect Viviana... It seems that as long as they can keep Viviana safe, they can achieve their goal.

(There are too few clues, so we can only rely on guesswork.)

Jiang Ran sighed silently. He was still a long way from the "truth" this time.

Although Sybil is a member of the Feiqi family's operation, his rank is still too low. Even if he is caught alive by Jiang Ran, he probably won't be able to ask much about him.

If Jiang Ran wants to know the truth behind the Feiqi family's actions, he needs to approach someone of higher status.

(Will Viviana learn the truth about this operation...?)

Thinking of this silver-haired girl with extraordinary strength but a simple heart, Jiang Ran always felt that Viviana might not know the Feiqi family's plan.

If it was the Viviana that Jiang Ran knew, she would never have participated in such a plan.

"Little Motorcycle, given the current situation, we can only go deeper into the maze. Why don't you go out from the maze entrance first?"

Jiang Ran planned to go on the adventure alone, but Xiao Moto did not accept his suggestion. Instead, he started to move deeper into the maze before Jiang Ran.

It told Jiang Ran through practical actions that a war horse would never desert on the battlefield.

·

At the same time, in the Ten Thousand Demons Hall of the Yuyuan Empire, the Sky Ghosts and Earth Ghosts were synchronizing their actions with each other.

"Earth Ghost, it seems your 'highest combat power' is still a step behind."

The Sky Ghost told the Earth Ghost that more than half an hour ago, its spies saw Banning entering the "Maze·Green Ghost Lair", so it immediately arranged for a swift to rush into the maze with the "Stone of Liberation" at the fastest speed.

"Everyone in the maze must be wondering why the monsters have suddenly become one level stronger. Hahahaha!"

The Heavenly Ghost laughed heartily and felt heartbroken at the same time. All its belongings were really used up like this. It was so unreal.

The Earth Ghost patted the Sky Ghost on the shoulder, expressing his respect for its loyalty to the Lord of Eternal Winter.

In addition, the Earth Ghost also has a message to convey to the Sky Ghost, but it is not known whether it is good news or bad news.

"Heavenly Ghost, even though my 'highest fighter' has agreed to the mission to hunt down Benning, his impatience is hard to control... He'll be arriving in Dris soon. I suspect he won't be able to find Benning by then, so he'll probably go on a killing spree in Dris first."

Tiangui didn't react to these words. In his opinion, as long as the highest combat power could wait obediently in Dris Town for Banning to come out of the maze, there would be no problem. As for how many people to kill, as long as he was happy, it would be fine.

Of course, the best outcome is that Banning dies directly in the maze, which is what Tiangui wants to see.

7.22 - Goblin Camp (Part )

[Confession death countdown remaining: 16 days]

In the mountains and forests, Viviana tried her best to restrain her breath while crossing mountains and ridges.

The core of the maze indicated by the red beam of light in the sky seemed not far away, but the rugged terrain made the distance infinitely magnified. Even a strong person like Viviana had to spend time on the road.

Not long ago, Viviana saw three streams of black smoke rising in the distance, as if there was a fire in the mountains.

Considering that this place is in a maze, Viviana guessed that the fire was caused by fighting.

——(I wonder what the others are up to…)

——(Of the team members who entered the maze with me, none have returned to join me yet...)

The abnormal increase in the monsters' strength and her lonely situation made Viviana feel uneasy. This "Maze·Green Ghost Lair" was really getting more and more weird.

Viviana even began to worry whether the other people who entered the maze with her were dead?

——(Will I really be able to successfully reach the location of the maze boss?)

The idea of ​​lack of confidence began to quietly grow in Viviana's heart. The core factor that led to this problem was still the theft of "Pigeon Blood Red Stone Feilia".

Without the pigeon blood redstone that can provide almost infinite magic power, Viviana's fighting style has become restricted, and in a special environment like the maze that requires long-term and multiple battles, she is even more restricted in every way.

This time, Viviana followed the Red and Black Elder to the battlefield again, and was criticized for trying to adapt to the new fighting method.

Once people get used to a "rich" life, it is difficult for them to live a "poor" life again, let alone Viviana who has lived a "rich" life since she was born and has never experienced a "poor" life.

As Viviana walked along with uneasy thoughts, she gradually felt that the atmosphere around her was not right.

There was almost no sound from wild animals, not even the chirping of insects... This area was really too quiet.

But it was too late for Viviana to notice this. A dark green slender figure was quietly approaching under the cover of the woods. When Viviana heard the "hiss" and "hiss" sounds, the two-headed stone python, which was twelve or thirteen meters long, had surrounded her.

The maze Green Ghost Lair is outside the entrance of Dris Town. Ice Star Shirley and Branch Chief Pame have been waiting here for more than an hour.

The entrance that Fike entered was still gray, which meant that he had survived in the maze far longer than the two teams of death row prisoners. This made Shirley and Branch Chief Pam somewhat relieved.

Since both of them had important matters to attend to in the town of Driss and lunch time was approaching, Shirley left a letter for Fike at the exit of the maze, and then returned to the town temporarily with Branch Chief Pam.

Shirley felt somewhat guilty about her behavior. Fei Ke was working hard for her, but she couldn't wait at the entrance for him to come out.

However, what Shirley didn't know was that it was her "guilty act" that saved her and Branch Chief Pam's lives.

·

Coincidentally, Jiang Ran and Xiao Moto were already having lunch in the maze.

Jiang Ran is a smart man who knows how to balance work and rest. In fact, he has always had an idea in his heart, that is, he can figure out the plan of the Feiqi family. At most, he will owe Shirley a favor, but if he loses his life, it will really not be worth it.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Ran even asked the small motorcycle to keep watch for him, then sat down with his back against a big tree and took a nap to recover the magic power he had just consumed.

Through this journey in the maze, Jiang Ran has noticed that Xiao Moto's insight is quite good. Its wild intuition can often detect the existence of the enemy earlier than Jiang Ran.

After a good rest, Jiang Ran and Xiao Moto set out again. After walking for a while, they found a terraced field at the junction of two mountains, and a group of female goblins were farming in the field.

(In this green ghost lair, the goblin community has its own ecosystem.)

If Jiang Ran wasn't facing constant threats to his life, he would really like to see how these goblins live.

Just when Jiang Ran wanted to bypass the goblin gathering area and continue moving forward, he suddenly discovered that a small group of goblins were about to transport a cart of food away.

The place where the grain would go would either be a granary or an important facility. Jiang Ran thought for a few seconds and then decided to follow quietly.

·

Responsible for transporting food is a team of second-level sword and shield goblin soldiers, with an average level of around level 45 and a number of 8 people.

In addition, there is a third-level goblin elite captain who is in charge of leading the team. He is at level 80 and holds a large wolf-tooth ring knife in each hand. He looks experienced.

Jiang Ran originally thought that there would be no problem in transporting food in this goblin territory, but in reality it was not the case.

The goblins encountered two monster attacks along the way. Both attackers were third-level monsters, namely the "Steel-clawed Black Rock Bear" and the "Double-tailed Poisonous Lynx".

Under the elite captain's hard work and command, the goblins won the victory with great difficulty, but at the cost of the death of two soldiers.

From this we can see that the life of the goblins in this green ghost nest is not absolutely comfortable. No wonder they have developed such an excellent military system.

Two hours passed in a blink of an eye, and Jiang Ran followed the grain transport team to a relatively flat valley where a wooden wall was erected, and inside the wall was the goblin camp.

On the training ground of the military camp, a large number of goblin soldiers were training. Jiang Ran observed and estimated through a telescope, and guessed that there were about four to five hundred people.

Even without considering the quality, this number would tire Jiang Ran to death in a head-on fight, not to mention that these soldiers were all second-level goblin sword and shield soldiers.

In addition to the soldiers, there were also forty or fifty third-level goblin captains present, each of whom was responsible for the soldiers under his jurisdiction, and each of them was dedicated and loyal to his duties.

Seeing such a scene, Jiang Ran's heart sank. How could such a maze be conquered by sending four or five second-level professionals? Even if there were three teams, it would not be possible.

(The last time I saw Viviana, she was already at the third level...)

(The corpse of Sybil we just saw was also a level three.)

(Could it be that the team sent by the Feiqi family this time is too strong, which is why the difficulty of the maze is so ridiculous?)

Jiang Ran thought about it and still felt that something was wrong. Even if all the members of the Feiqi family were at level three, or even level four, and the team had ten to twenty people, it would still be impossible to capture the green ghost's lair.

Because Jiang Ran clearly saw that there was a stone-carved chair on the high platform in the parade ground, which meant that in this military camp, there must be a fourth-level goblin captain above the third-level goblin captain, and this was just a military camp, not the fortress at the core of the maze.

In addition, the flags erected in the military camp had numbers written on them. The military camp that Jiang Ran saw was Camp No. 3, which meant that there were at least two other military camps of the same specifications.

But just when Jiang Ran was sighing at the goblin, something even more shocking happened.

Just after blinking his eyes, Jiang Ran discovered to his disbelief that the levels of all the goblins in the barracks had actually risen by one level!!!
