Capítulo 875: Chapter 633: Team Wipeout

The underground tunnels of the Titan Ruins crisscrossed and were quite complex. Moreover, it seemed that due to the passage of time, many areas had collapsed and were blocked, so the pace of the group’s progress was not fast.

Fortunately, the veterans in the group had already recorded the coordinates from the last departure on their mini-maps. Although the terrain in the underground sewer was completely different from the surface, the group maintained their general direction, and as long as they stuck to it, they would eventually reach their destination.

Unfortunately, after killing a group of Goblins, the group encountered no other monsters except a few slow-moving poisonous worms, and the level of these worms was even lower than that of the mutated Goblins. This also thwarted Gale’s plan to advance the two newcomers to the Black Iron Rank ahead of schedule.

“It’s really strange, I didn’t expect so few monsters in this area, obviously other pioneer teams encountered quite a few monsters underground…”

The Elf Warrior scratched his messy hair and said with a frown.

After speaking, he looked at the Hunter in charge of reconnaissance:

“Habsburg, did you find anything?”

Habsburg appeared serious, this cloaked scout had rich reconnaissance experience.

He was silent for a moment before saying in a hoarse voice:

“The lack of various traps in the ruins’ sewer makes it the Goblin’s favorite place to live. It’s impossible for there to be so few unless there’s something special happening.”

The Archer in the team felt a stir in his heart:

“I remember Goblins are timid but have a keen sense of danger. You mean… they were scared away by something, or perhaps eliminated?”

The Hunter hesitated for a moment before saying:

“No signs of a fight, it’s very likely they sensed some danger.”

Upon hearing this, the group immediately became more alert.

Gale squinted his eyes, scanning various parts of the underground tunnels before finally settling his gaze on the side where the stagnant, filthy water channel lay:

“Everyone, stay away from the water.”

If the Goblins sensed danger, it meant there might be some formidable monster nearby. The space at the edge of the sewer was not wide and had no covers. If there really was a monster, it could only be hiding in the water.

The players looked at each other and moved toward the walls.

“Of course, there’s another possibility.”

At this time, Habsburg suddenly spoke again.

Everyone turned their gaze towards him.

The Hunter maintained his serious expression and continued:

“That is, they were all wiped out before they had a chance to resist.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s expression turned grim.

Gale’s eyelid twitched:

“You mean there’s likely a Silver Rank big guy around?”

Silver Rank!

The two newbie players also began to feel nervous.

And at this moment, Habsburg laughed softly:

“Just kidding, if they were really killed, there’s no way nothing would be left behind, not even players… No, not even Silver players could do that without leaving a trace or a scent. With skills, my nose is very sensitive. Besides, this sewer is so open that you could hear a pin drop, or even breathing would be crystal clear. If there really was something, my enhanced ears would have picked it up.”

Everyone:…

The Elf Warrior gave him a speechless look and waved to the group:

“Let’s keep going, everyone be careful.”

The group continued to move forward.

And along the way, the group did not encounter any new monsters.

The underground tunnel was so quiet it felt frozen in time, with only the sound of their footsteps and breathing reaching their ears, even the previously heard faint monster roars were completely absent now.

And at this moment, even the slowest person could sense something abnormal.

“Everyone be careful, watch your surroundings, slow down, and try not to make any noise.”

Gale’s eyes were vigilant.

He stopped speaking and directly typed in the chat channel.

He then glanced at the two still-curious newbies observing their surroundings, checked the distance on the map, and after a moment of hesitation, typed:

“Yezi, Nai Nai, we’re heading to a secret place discovered by our squad. To prevent leaks, we need to blindfold you both and seal your magic power, I hope you understand.”

Blindfolded, sealing magic power?

Ye Ye was stunned.

He frowned slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable, but upon seeing the other party’s sincere and kind gaze, after exchanging a look with the girl, he reluctantly nodded.

The Elf Warrior breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he typed:

“Don’t worry, we will release you once we arrive, and we’ll try to protect you two as much as possible. Moreover, if we do find something good, you’ll get a share too.”

“Hehe, don’t underestimate this exploration, who knows, we might stumble upon a Divine Artifact!”

Divine Artifact!

Ye Ye’s eyes lit up.

Divine Artifact…

This was the most expensive and sought-after item in the “Elf Kingdom.”

With the two newbies’ consent, the Elf Mage, Donut, stepped forward to blindfold them with a piece of cloth and used a sealing skill to temporarily lock their magic power and life force.

After completing everything, the squad continued to move forward.

After about another twenty minutes, they finally stopped.

“We’ve arrived.”

Gale typed in the chat channel.

Then, he released the restraints on the two newbies.

As their vision recovered, Ye Ye looked up, and what met his gaze was a spiral staircase.
