Chapter 643 Weird Castle

The deepest part of the fourth tier.

The desolate terrain full of jagged rocks came to an abrupt end here.

In its place is flat sand.

Even the rock wall above is smooth, with no stalagmites hanging, just a layer of moss that emits a shimmer of phosphorous.

At the end of the sand, a towering ancient castle rose from the ground, which was extremely conspicuous in the dark and desolate dungeon.

In front of the huge castle stone gate.

There are two huge stone sculptures like mountains.

I don't know how long it took for the sculpture.

It was full of dust, but there was no moss or anything like it.

On the gray body of the rock, a powerful coercion that is faintly palpitating escapes.

Even if you just look at it from a distance, you can feel the awe from the heart from the two stone sculptures.

On both sides of the gate, there are two lamps lit.

The flame burns forever, illuminating this wonderful world.

With these two lights as the center, there is no half-headed beast within a five-kilometer radius.

Those ferocious and ferocious monsters seem to be afraid of something here, and they avoid it from far away, not daring to approach the castle within five kilometers.

At this moment.

It is about two or three kilometers from the castle.

A group of people is clearly divided into two sides, sitting cross-legged on the ground dozens of meters apart.

There are about twenty people on the left, all dressed as adventurers.

It was only not long ago that he and the Huang family joined forces to kill the broken veins of the swamp hunters.

It's just that compared to a moment ago, the people with the broken pulse looked very embarrassed at this time.

The number of pet beasts surrounding the crowd has dropped significantly.

Many people are even more wounded, and there is still a look of panic in their expressions.

Cheng Zian, the deputy head of the regiment, looked around and saw the state of the crowd. He couldn't help frowning, hesitated, and asked Li Mu, the head of the regiment, in a low voice.

"Captain, what shall we do next?"

Li Mu raised his head and glanced at everyone, with a look of remorse on his face, and sighed.

"It's my fault. I was blinded by greed, and I didn't strictly follow the original plan, which caused the team to fall into the current situation!"

Cheng Zian hurriedly said

"Leader, going to the fourth floor is agreed by everyone in the team, not your fault alone!"

Li Mu sighed again, shook his head and said nothing.

The fourth tier of the secret realm is dangerous and unusual, and they have known this for a long time.

So.

Before entering the secret realm, they decided to take every step, only to explore the periphery of the fourth tier, and never go deep, so as not to encounter the danger of group destruction.

But after entering the fourth tier, the team first joined forces with the Huang family to kill the swamp hunters, and got a lot of money.

After the separation, I continued to explore, and it was even more rewarding.

In just a few hours, a large number of incomparably precious treasures were discovered!

In terms of value alone, it has caught up with the harvest of the broken pulse in the past few years!

Overjoyed, they were overwhelmed by greed and decided to go deep into the fourth tier to get more treasures!

As a result, not long after stepping into the depths of the fourth floor, he was hit head-on.

More than a dozen star demons attacked them!

Star Demon Insects are rare high-level dark beasts with gregarious customs.

Adult individuals have the strength level of the ninth-order peak.

A few elite individuals can even reach the level of a king!

Among the group of star demon insects that attacked them, there were four elite star demon insects!

This is far beyond the scope of their response!

In desperation, they had to fight and flee, and finally sacrificed five or six members and fled to the vicinity of the castle, which was lucky to escape the pursuit of the star monster.

And this time.

The strength of the team has been lost, and the casualties are heavy!

Li Mu's only two king-level pet beasts have already died in battle!

Unless you leave the secret realm and collect resources to revive it, don't expect to be able to summon pet beasts in the secret realm!

Losing the support of Li Mu's two king-level pet beasts, not to mention the star demon insect, whether the broken pulse can safely leave the fourth tier is a problem.

Thinking of this, Li Mu felt regretful.

If he, the head of the group, had not been swept away by greed and made the right decision at the critical moment, he would not have caused the team to fall into the current situation!

Cheng Zian on the side watched Li Mu's expression change, opened his mouth, hesitated, and finally closed his mouth and sighed secretly.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the opposite, and his heart felt sad.

Wouldn't he and others fall to the same level as those on the other side?

The open space opposite the people with the broken pulse.

More than a dozen people were scattered and sitting on the stones, all of them described as haggard and lethargic.

If Gong Wu and Jin Tianyi were here, they could recognize that these dozen people were the missing exploration team from the Qian Yue consortium.

The leader was an old man with white hair.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, with a straight back and a sharp-edged temperament.

It's just that his face was pale, and there was an undisguised tiredness on his face.

Even that kind of Zifengrui's intention could not hide the fact that he was seriously injured.

"cough cough"

The old man coughed violently.

Seeing this, a pretty girl next to her quickly took out a bottle of medicine from the space props, fed the emerald green medicine to the mouth of the old man, and patted his back lightly, showing worried and concerned eyes.

"Grandpa, your injury is getting worse"

After drinking the potion, Zhong Xing's face was obviously much better, and he forced a forced smile towards his granddaughter Zhong Xue'er.

"Don't worry, I can hold on."

Zhong Xue'er's expression darkened when she heard the words, and the sorrow in her eyes did not diminish by half.

"Grandpa, we have been stranded here for more than half a month, but the rescue has never arrived. Will the consortium already give up on us?"

"Will not!"

Zhong Xing shook his head decisively.

He glanced at Zhong Xue'er's expression and comforted him.

"The consortium has always treated subordinates leniently, and President Qiao is not the kind of person who ignores the fate of his subordinates. After learning that we have fallen into a secret realm, the consortium will definitely send someone to rescue us."

"Besides, even if it's not for us, but for the many treasures that we have collected during this period, the consortium will never watch us die in the secret realm!"

"The rescuers must be on their way. It's just that the secret realm of Qu'an is in danger, and there are powerful beasts everywhere. It may take a lot of time for the rescue team to arrive here!"

There is indeed some truth to these words, and the anxiety and worry on Zhong Xue'er's face immediately eased a lot.

The people around also showed a slightly relieved expression.

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the people around him, Zhong Xing secretly sighed in his heart.

Although he said that, he didn't have a clue in his heart.

Zhong Xing did not doubt whether the consortium would send someone to rescue them, but was only worried about whether the consortium could send enough personnel.

He is a legendary beastmaster himself, and he is at the top of the Qian Yue consortium, so he knows a lot of information that the people below do not know.

In recent years, there have been more and more alien civilization planes connected to the Federation, and the number is blowing out.

In order to cope with the ensuing alien civilization, the federal military had to build a plane base.

The Qian Yue consortium, which has been cooperating with the military for many years, has also ushered in an opportunity to expand.

As a result, the consortium had to allocate manpower to various places. In recent years, it has gradually been stretched.

According to Zhong Xing's estimate, the consortium would at most send a legendary beastmaster to lead a team to rescue them.

However, with just this strength, it is easier said than done to rescue them?

You must know that they also arrived here by chance when they escaped for their lives. With the strange restrictions near the castle, they avoided the attack of the beasts, and they have survived to this day.

When it was him, the rescue team wanted to arrive here, how hopeless!

And once the rescue has not come, the group of them will certainly not be attacked by the beasts, but in the long run, when the food and water they bring are used up, there is also only a dead end!

Thinking of this, Zhong Xing's heart sank to the bottom.

He sighed and raised his head to meet Li Mu's gaze not far away.

The leaders of the two unfortunate teams looked at each other and sighed deeply.

at this time.

The two suddenly changed their expressions, and turned their heads together to look into the distance.

"Soul power fluctuations! Someone is approaching here!"

"That position is the direction the group of star demons left! Did someone hit them?"
