Chapter 808 Slowly Falling from the Castle



Chapter 808 Slowly Falling from the Castle

Just as everyone was puzzled, an old man in a white robe slowly floated down from the top of the castle.

His face was kind, but his eyes revealed profound wisdom. "Don't panic. I'm here to help. This monster is so violent because it's being controlled by the black-robed man with evil magic."

Lin Ze clasped his hands together and respectfully asked the old man, "Senior, I'd like to ask you why you are here? And who is that man in black robes?"

The old man sighed slowly, his heart filled with endless emotion. He stared at Lin Ze and said in a heavy voice, "I have guarded this castle for many years and know every blade of grass and every tree here like the back of my hand. This castle hides a great secret, a secret that I'm afraid only a very few people know."

He paused, then continued, "That man in black is actually an evil sorcerer. He's been secretly spying on this castle, hoping to unlock its secrets and gain powerful strength. He's controlling those monsters to attack you simply to kill with someone else's knife and eliminate anyone who might stand in his way."

When everyone heard this, they suddenly understood. Su Yao was anxious and asked quickly: "Then, senior, facing such a sinister man in black robes, how should we deal with it?"

The old man smiled faintly, his gaze fixed on the depths of the castle, as if the answer lay hidden there. He pointed a finger towards the depths of the castle and spoke softly, "The secret lies within. If you can uncover it, you might have a chance to defeat the black-robed man. However, it is filled with numerous traps. The slightest misstep could lead to irretrievable destruction. It is truly extremely dangerous."

Lin Ze's eyes became extremely determined, and he said without hesitation: "Don't worry, senior. In order to stop the evil deeds of the black-robed man, we will definitely move forward without hesitation! Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, we will never retreat!"

After saying that, Lin Ze turned to face everyone and shouted loudly: "Everyone, let us face this challenge bravely together!" His voice echoed in the castle, inspiring everyone's fighting spirit.

Everyone responded and followed Lin Ze closely, heading towards the depths of the castle to uncover the long-hidden secret and meet unknown challenges.

As they entered the depths of the castle, a strange light flashed. Suddenly, the ground cracked, and spikes burst out of the earth. Lin Ze reacted quickly, shouting, "Be careful!" He swung his sword and cut off the approaching spikes. Su Yao cast a spell, holding up a shield for those around her.

Continuing forward, they found a huge stone door in front of them, covered in mysterious runes. The door was tightly shut, and no matter how hard they pushed, they couldn't open it.

At this moment, they heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from afar. Everyone looked closely and found that it was the old man who was catching up with them, panting.

He shouted anxiously, "These runes are the key to opening the stone door. We must decipher the secrets!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ze immediately turned his gaze to the mysterious runes. They were densely packed on the stone gate, like a mystical scripture, leaving one baffled. However, Lin Ze was not intimidated by the seemingly complex runes. He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and began to carefully observe the shape and position of each rune.

As time passed, Lin Ze's mind kept flashing through various possible combinations and patterns. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, like a flash of lightning across the night sky. He discovered a specific order hidden between these runes!

Lin Ze touched the runes in this order without hesitation, and saw the stone door slowly open after a slight vibration.

Behind the door was a dark, deep passage. A pungent odor filled the air, making one frown. Arrows were occasionally fired from both sides of the passage, their speed so fast that it was impossible to defend against them. Seeing this, everyone took no chances and carefully dodged these deadly arrows.

In this tense atmosphere, everyone moved forward step by step, and finally reached the end of the passage. Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, a huge phantom appeared at the end of the passage, blocking their way.

This phantom was actually the black-robed man! His figure loomed in the darkness, revealing a gloomy and terrifying aura. The black-robed man let out a low laugh, which echoed in the passage, making people's hair stand on end.

"You stupid guys, do you really think you can unravel this secret so easily? Hahaha, you are so naive!" The voice of the man in black robe echoed in the passage, like a demon from hell.

A thrilling and fierce battle seems to be inevitable...

Lin Ze gripped the sword tightly in his hand, stared at the black-robed man with a determined look, and shouted, "You evil sorcerer, we will definitely defeat you today!"

After saying that, he rushed forward first, sword shadow flashing, heading straight for the man in black robe.

The black-robed man had a contemptuous smile on his face, as if he didn't care about the attacks from Lin Ze and the others. He waved his hands, and a powerful black light shot out like lightning, rushing straight towards Lin Ze.

Lin Ze's eyes were sharp, and he nimbly moved to the side, easily avoiding the deadly black light. At the same time, he swung the long sword in his hand quickly, bringing with it a sharp sword energy, and fiercely slashed at the black light.

There was a loud "bang" sound, and the black light and sword energy collided violently, exploding instantly and turning into countless black fragments flying everywhere.

Seeing this, Su Yao and others cast their own spells. For a moment, lights of various colors in the passage intertwined together, like a colorful painting.

However, the black-robed man ignored the spells, muttering to himself and constantly changing his hand gestures. As he chanted, a group of dark monsters emerged from the darkness like ghosts.

These black shadow monsters had ferocious faces, and they rushed towards everyone with their fangs and claws bared, roaring and roaring. Everyone was caught off guard and was thrown into a state of panic by the sudden appearance of these monsters.

Although Lin Ze, Su Yao and others fought hard, these black shadow monsters were numerous and extremely ferocious, and everyone gradually fell into a bitter battle.

Just as the situation became increasingly critical, the old man who had been standing by and watching the battle suddenly shouted. His voice was like a huge bell, echoing in the passage and making everyone's eardrums buzz.

Then, the old man pulled out a gem from his bosom that emitted a strange light. This gem was crystal clear, like a night-shining pearl, but it contained endless energy.
