The second time I entered the maze door, all the illusions disappeared.

As soon as the scenery of the passage came into Fan Wei's eyes, he heard a bang, and Kaso raised his shield to slap away several crackling balls of lightning.

Although the dwarf is short, every swing of his weapon can create an ochre-colored shadow the size of a door panel, so his defense range cannot be underestimated.

"The thunder bugs have spread here. I don't know what the situation is in the market." Andrew used his spear to blast the flying thunder bugs and felt his skin tighten.

Everyone had the same feeling, and at the same time saw the hairs on their arms stand up and their hair lift unnaturally.

"The space is full of thunder magic elements. If the concentration continues to rise, we must be careful not to step and get electrocuted." Irene took out her small magic wand and cast a magic element repelling spell on everyone's feet.

"The thunder element here is almost as high as the Thunder Abyss below."

The harshness of the environment was revealed at the very beginning. Everyone put aside their contempt and headed towards the first stop, the Adventurer's Market. Although there was spatial chaos inside the maze, the front area remained the same.

But when they walked out of the passage, they were shocked by the scene before them.

The noisy thunder bugs formed a huge cloud above the market, with arcs of electricity bursting out in large numbers. From time to time, a bolt of lightning struck and hit the barrier on a house.

“Ah——!!!” A scream was heard not far away, and a whirlwind-like swarm of insects surrounded a house with a broken barrier and completely submerged it in a few seconds.

Irene frowned, stretched out her hand and raised the staff. A light and sharp chanting sound was heard, and a fiery red magic pattern lit up on the staff.

"Aai, Xi, Bizi, Knastam, Ouse..."

The orange light filled the air above everyone's head, and as the spell fell, "Boom!!" a pillar of fire shot straight into the sky! A huge fireball exploded among the flying black insects!

The rolling flames continued to expand, sucking back the insects that were blown away by the shock wave, and finally turned into a ring of fire that swallowed everything like a tsunami.

Countless thunder bugs fell, burning, like an alternative heavy rain.

"Vacuum cloud explosion?" Fan Wei pondered the principle, his face illuminated by the spreading flames.

"Should we save some mana now?" said the white-haired swordsman Di Matthew. "We still have a long way to go. If we consume too much, we won't be able to cope with it."

Irene put down the staff and shook her head gently. "It's nothing to me. In less than ten hours, the magic ring will be inverted and the magic power will naturally be replenished. Besides, I have fairy blood, so my recovery speed is naturally fast."

"It's just that the concentration of thunder magic here is too high, and there is very little pure magic that can be absorbed."

Obviously she was not without concerns, but it was not the style of a large organization to watch someone in danger without helping. There were still at least a hundred people left here. If Irene did not take action, they would have no time to escape and it would be only a matter of time before they were breached.

"All the guild members have been sent to guard against the thunder bugs lurking outside. There isn't even a liaison officer in the market."

Andrew frowned, “But the people who stayed here didn’t run away at the beginning, or they couldn’t leave their belongings behind.”

What he said was indeed correct. Noticing the commotion outside, many people came out of the house one after another and greeted the crowd.

"Are you the elders from the guild? You are finally here. If you were any later, the market would be ruined!"

Most of the people here are low-level adventurers and merchants. They can't resist such a horrific attack and they all hope for help from the guild.

"Get out now, this place has been abandoned for a short time, and staying here will only lead to death."

Irene ignored those people's complaints and just told them the situation truthfully. It was up to them whether they listened or not.

Even in the face of life and death, there are still people who hold on to luck. People die for money and birds die for food. Some people will leave, while some people are reluctant to give up their property and gamble on their luck. They can only wish for their own good fortune in the outcome.

"If we go any further, chaos will occur inside the maze. The space now seems to be constantly moving."

Andrew's face was solemn as he observed the numerous passages ahead. The roads they used to take had changed, so he could only make new guesses as he walked based on some characteristic signs.

"From this side." He led a few people to continue forward, while in the market behind, people who sensed danger began to flee out of the maze.

"Little girl, don't go forward. It's very dangerous in there. Have you lost your family? Go out and wait first." A kind-hearted female businessman stopped a girl who was walking quietly and said.

"No, I'm looking for someone."

Clara held the Crescent Moon Blade that Fan Wei had bought for her, explained calmly, then walked around the female businessman and continued forward. Her back, which was so indifferent and seemed to be detached from the world, left the female businessman dazed.

"Who? Is it that important?"

......

The ravaged passage was filled with black egg shells left behind by thunder bugs. There were enough of them to kill someone with trypophobia.

Andrew crushed a hollowed-out monster corpse, and the thunder bugs that suddenly exploded inside made his legs and feet numb. "It was just like a swarm of locusts passing through."

"If this continues, the monsters on the first floor of the maze will probably become extinct."

"Maybe they are extinct, otherwise why haven't we heard any news for so long?" Di Matthew shrugged nervously, "I feel a little uneasy, as if some danger is approaching."

"Ms. Kasuyi, what is the result of your prediction?"

Looking back at the prophet in the center of the team, Di Matthew found that her eyes were a little empty and her face was abnormally pale.

"I can't sense the stars!"

The prophet who had come out of a certain state said in horror: "All the stars have hidden, as if covered by some huge force. Only a faint guide is left. A huge tide is approaching!"

"what?"

As soon as the doubtful words fell, a rumbling sound came from the front. In the small passage, a group of monsters rushed out, and behind them was a swarm of thundering insects that rose and fell like a stream of water.

"Damn, this is a mass escape!" Di Matthew was shocked.

The impatient Kaso had already raised his shield, and the phantom of an ochre-colored mountain enveloped the entire team, which soon collided with several wandering hounds and giant relic rats.

But these monsters just turned over and continued to flee without even looking at them. A swarm of eight-eyed giant spiders on the ceiling swept past like a whirlwind.

The slower monsters, such as the terrestrial octopus and giant bats, were already covered in bites from thunder bugs and were drowned by the flood-like tide of bugs accompanied by bursts of explosions.

Kaso used all his strength to hold up the shield, but the subsequent continuous attacks from thunder bugs caused tiny cracks to appear on the phantom, which continued to spread.

"Ha~" Piccolo played the banko, and the rapid melody suddenly stimulated everyone's strength.

Everyone began to use their own skills to relieve the pressure on their teammates. Di Matthew's sword was finally unsheathed, and the cold light instantly made the buzzing of wings seem to be silenced!

An invisible sword light flew out from the shield shadow, sweeping down a group of large bats and thunder bugs, and stopping these monsters that were attacking crazily indiscriminately.

"Disintegration Slash!"

Pointing his sword at the ground, Di Mash's blue eyes were sharp as he used his first skill.

A gust of wind rose from the ground as he swung the sword, and it seemed as if countless invisible blades were hidden in the wind, sweeping out endless balls of sword light, cutting all targets in range into pieces.

On the other side, Andrew demonstrated what it meant to have a real dragon-like spear. The spear carried unknown energy, and every strike was a several-meter-long spear rainbow that shot out, creating pieces of vacuum.

Irene is even simpler, with colorful magic elements blooming and magic attacks like a hail of bullets.

No one can compare with her killing range and terrifying attack power!

Even Kasuyi, who seemed to have no attack power, raised her hand to "point" at the thunder bugs. Every bug she pointed at would explode directly. No one knew why.

Fan Wei had no chance to make any move at all and felt like he was being led by the boss.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, a huge lightning suddenly exploded! There was no time to even make a sound of tearing the air before it hit Kaso's shield!

"Boom!" Everyone was thrown out, feeling a tingling pain all over their body.

"What is that?!" With the damage reduced by the blue protection, Fan Wei quickly stood up and looked towards the suddenly empty passage ahead.

The rustling sound was like something rubbing against the ground. The first huge head that appeared made him feel a chill in his heart. It was a giant snake that spit out lightning, with thunder wrapped around its tongue, and had a green and blue pattern!

The thunder bugs behind it were sucked away by its mouth, and the strong wind made it almost impossible to stand.

"Blue Electric Snake, a type of dragon, average level 10, how can it be so strong?" Irene pushed her glasses and got up from the ground.

A warm green light appeared on everyone, quickly healing all injuries, and Pastor Julie exerted her strength.

"It should be due to environmental advantages and some unknown evolution."

Fan Wei saw unstable purple light flashing on the snake's body. It must have eaten a huge number of thunder bugs and digested and utilized them incredibly!

In other words, the effect of special food processing that Fan Wei has always wanted to achieve was bestowed upon it.

"Excuse me, it seems that the real culprit of this fluctuation is this snake. It looks like it just shed its skin. It must be very hungry."

Andrew smiled helplessly, "At worst, it's a level 20 elite monster, a threat at the top of the first floor of the maze."

The giant snake coiled slightly in the passage, with electric light surging in its bottomless throat. It had to be said that they were unlucky as they encountered an opponent of this level not long after entering.

Irene grabbed Fan Wei's arm and cast layers of magic shields on him, "Be careful, we are about to attack!!"

The battle is about to break out.

The skill flashed, and the raging storm submerged everything!
