82. Breaking Through
The cries continued unabated despite the appearance of the Cave Demon Servant. It was unclear exactly how many Cave Demon Servant were present, but judging from the current situation, the number was certainly considerable!
Song Xia and Zhao Manyan hurriedly released the Radiance Art again, and the light flying forward illuminated a large section of the tunnel ahead. What made people gasp was that the side caves, which had been covered by black vines just before, were now arranged in rows. If the Cave Demon Servant hadn't torn off the disguised black vine curtains themselves, everyone would probably have thought it was a straight railway tunnel.
At the same time, Cave Demon Servant appeared in all directions.
"This is the lair of a cave demon slave! All those white Shatter Stone are bones smashed to pieces by these monsters!" Zhao Manyan finally realized.
At this moment, with his life threatened, all his so-called gentlemanly manners vanished instantly. He spouted nothing but "civilized language!"
"Ice Vine!"
Looking around, Tang Miao quickly took action. These Cave Demon Servant wouldn't be much of a threat outside, but in this narrow track, they were fraught with deadly danger.
The reason is simple: although their team could kill some of them with their magic, the Cave Demon Servant infiltrate the crowd, making it impossible for them to kill them and potentially leading to infighting.
"Freeze!"
As Tang Miao made his move, a thick layer of ice quickly covered the wall.
Finally, Xu Dalong also released a barrier to defend against it.
"Ahead, clear the way quickly!"
Freezing both sides consumed a great deal of magical energy. After freezing both sides, Tang Miao shouted.
After all, such a large-scale freeze can only provide temporary relief for a few minutes at most.
While everyone was still in shock at the Ice Wall on both sides, they immediately came to their senses after hearing Tang Miao's shout and the continuous knocking sounds from the Cave Demon Servant inside the walls.
The first few Offensive Mage simultaneously cleared out the mobs. Although there were quite a few at the front, they were no match for the bombardment of Intermediate Magic. Most importantly, the left, right, and rear sides were blocked. Now, all they needed to do was fight their way through!
After the demon slaves were scattered by a wave of bombardment, Lu Zhenghe commanded his General Level Wolf Clan Summon to charge forward. Looking back at Tang Miao and the others, he shouted, "The front is cleared, let's go!"
After Tang Miao stopped, he grabbed Mu Nujiao, who was protecting him, and ran forward. As Tang Miao withdrew his demonic energy, a large number of Cave Demon Servant emerged from both sides, pounding on the walls.
These Servant Level Demon Beast could be wiped out by Tang Miao with a single blow. However, Demon Beast, being such beasts, have an incredibly strong ability to reproduce.
No one knows exactly how many Cave Demon Servant are in this mountain cave...
Tang Miao can be killed, but the road ahead is long. Continuing to fight here will not only bring no benefit, but may also exhaust him and cause him to die.
So even though he knew the other party was weak, he still chose to run away.
It's not without reason that Demon Beast are stronger than humans... They have powerful bodies and no mana potions, so they can attack almost as long as they're alive. Therefore, no matter how powerful humans are, they are still humans. This is why humans dared not reclaim their territory when a large number of Demon Beast lived here.
"Crack..."
Mu Nujiao, who had been running away with Tang Miao, saw the wall beside her collapse and hurriedly shouted, "Little...!"
"Thunder Seal!"
"Rumble..."
Before Mu Nujiao finish saying "Be careful," Tang Miao unleashed a Thunder Seal, instantly killing several Cave Demon Servant.
Having just dealt with the ones in front, a large group of Cave Demon Servant caught up from behind. Tang Miao, who was originally holding Mu Nujiao's hand, pulled her into his arms with a slight effort, then turned around and used Space Element magic to create a large distance between them.
"Purple Cloud! Thunder Seal! Furious Strike!"
"Boom!"
At the same time, star trails aligned, and lightning struck the ground.
However, this attack did not cause much damage to the Cave Demon Servant; it only killed a few, while a large number of Cave Demon Servant continued to charge forward.
Mu Nujiao, who was being held tightly, looked at the scene before her with some confusion.
"Purple Cloud! Thunderbolt! Yaksha!"
At this moment, Tang Miao finished drawing the Star Map, and then unleashed an Intermediate Level, second-tier Lightning Element spell.
"Zzz..."
After the lightning struck the first few Cave Demon Servant, it continued like a bolt of lightning, piercing through dozens more behind... "Boom!"
A thunderous roar echoed behind them, and nearly a hundred Cave Demon Servant were instantly reduced to ashes.
Tang Miao paused for ten seconds, collected the Remnant Soul into the Kirin Jade, and then immediately caught up with the advancing group.
"Earth Element, use Earth Wave!" Lu Zhenghe shouted as he saw Tang Miao running towards him carrying Mu Nujiao.
Xu Dalong and Luo Song were very obedient and quickly used the Art of Earth Wave to make the ground beneath their feet ripple forward like a torrent, so that everyone could get a collective speed boost when running.
The two-kilometer tunnel was stinking and filthy, with fermented animal carcasses and filth scattered everywhere, far from being cleaned up. With a large group of pursuers right behind them, no one cared about these problems at this point; they pressed on relentlessly through the railway tunnel...
Along the way, the Ghost Pattern Violent Wolf led the way, and the group divided the tasks to deal with the Demon Beast that appeared on the left and right. They only breathed a sigh of relief after they saw the light!
When they reached the cave entrance, Tang Miao saw Mo Fan at the back. He knew without a doubt that Mo Fan was collecting remnants of Remnant Soul. He didn't try to take them from him, but turned and ran out. After all, he had collected quite a few along the way.
Rushing from the darkness into the sunlight, my eyes were too heavy to open for a moment, but the moment I was bathed in the warm light, it felt like I was soaking in a bathtub, so incredibly comfortable!
"Count the number of people, count the number of people." Lu Zhenghe seemed to have led a team before, and he did not relax his vigilance even after rushing out of the tunnel.
"We're all here!" Liao Mingxuan quickly counted the eight people from their academy.
Song Xia quickly counted down, but when she got to eight, her expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in panic, "We're missing one..."
Before Song Xia could finish speaking, Tang Miao said calmly, "Mo Fan is covering the rear, don't worry, that kid's tough, he won't die."
Sure enough, less than a minute later, Mo Fan emerged from the cave. It seemed this guy was born to attract hatred; even though he wasn't particularly outstanding, Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao, who were unhappy with him, still managed to ostracize him.
