EVERYONE IS A LORD: MY TALENT IS A LITTLE TOO STRONG

Chapter 954: Chapter 599: The Fork in the Endless Passage_1

Directly entering the vortex of the chaos mist, the momentary weightlessness ended, and when Leo Ray’s feet solidified and his sight began to clear again.

He had already arrived in an entirely new place.

As expected, it was as dark here as in the first hidden passage he had encountered.

“Guiding Light!”

With Ariel Watson’s silver magic wand drawing a dazzling light line in mid-air,

Several shining magic spheres emerged out of thin air and then quickly flew towards various parts of the dark cave wall, making everything bright again.

Under the light of the magic spheres, Leo Ray noticed.

The width of the tunnel here was significantly wider than before, able to accommodate about five fully armed soldiers walking side by side. Their party of eleven, standing in place, did not feel cramped.

However, the tunnel was somewhat low, about 2.5 meters, making the entire space feel rather oppressive.

As for the surrounding environment, it was similar to the previous hidden passage: dry but not too damp.

In short, from what he could see, there was nothing remarkable about this place.

“So this is the second hidden endless passage? It doesn’t seem to be anything special.”

Scarlett, who had replaced her witch’s hat atop her head, muttered after glancing around with her large eyes.

“Don’t worry, let’s walk a little further and see. Remember the endless passage that annihilated the goblin army was empty at first as well.”

Leo Ray patted Scarlett’s head through her dusty witch’s hat and then said, “Alright, let’s move on.”

“Your will, Lord.”

Upon hearing this, all the subordinates simultaneously resumed their exploration formation.

Soon after, the sound of deliberately suppressed footsteps rang out, and the group began to move forward in the passage.

However, not long after they began, something unexpected happened.

Under the illumination of the two magic spheres floating in the air, Leo Ray discovered another passage next to the end of the road.

“Good heavens, a fork in the road?”

Seeing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows in surprise.

The faces of the surrounding subordinates also showed expressions of astonishment.

It was undoubtedly the first fork in the road encountered since they entered this secret tunnel.

“A fork in the endless passage? I wonder what the difference is between this and an ordinary fork.”

Curiosity added to Leo Ray’s surprise, and he quickened his pace.

As they approached the fork, the group stopped and began to observe the surroundings.

Both passageways’ widths were almost identical to the tunnel they were currently in, able to accommodate five fully armed soldiers moving side by side.

It was also worth noting.

Many weapon marks were on the cave walls at the edges of both passages.

There were X-shaped, circular, triangular, and even demon beast claw marks, etc.

Moreover, judging from the depth and location of these marks, they were clearly not the work of a single individual.

“Marks made to prevent getting lost? It seems quite a few different races, and even intelligent demon beasts, were faced with the choice between these two passages.”

Ariel Watson stared thoughtfully at the rough and hard cave wall, marked with a Z-shaped trace, and nodded her head.

“The entrance here is in a desolate, outer region and is relatively hidden.”

With his giant axe resting on the ground, Burt, whose work-worn hand gripped the axe handle, ran his other hand over the mottled marks on the rough cave wall and echoed, “Therefore, it could indeed become a stronghold for some fanatical adventurers or desperate criminals.”

“A stronghold?”

Hearing this, Ariel Watson frowned slightly and sighed, “These unfortunate intruders probably never realized that this so-called stronghold would be their tomb until their final moments.”

“Perhaps that’s the charm of this vast world full of countless mysteries and unknown places; you never know whether you’ll face treasure or death next.”

Smiling faintly, Leo Ray nodded to his subordinates and then quickened his pace before saying, “Alright, let’s check the left passage first. Exercise caution.”

As they directly entered the left passage, at first, everything remained unchanged.

Other than the feeling of hard ground beneath their feet and the ancient smell permeating their nostrils, there was nothing particularly unusual.

However, after walking for a while, scattered skeletons began to appear within their sight.

“This is the skeleton of a Tier 3 Storm Magic Python, and it’s an adult one.”

Bianca White crouched in front of a six or seven-meter-long, centipede-like snake skeleton, contemplating, “Its crawling speed is incredibly fast, almost as fast as our Snow Wolf Clan.”

“These are three half-orc skeletons.”

At the end of the path ahead, Gideon Black’s voice rang out. “Judging by the state of the bones, they died even longer ago than the goblin army.”

“My Lord, it seems that the cycle itself is created by this passage.”

The crisp voice of Red Night came from behind Leo Ray, “I’ve already rushed through it quickly, and the length is roughly the same as the endless passage we were in initially.”

“It turns out that the unsuspecting adventurers who left marks at the entrance never imagined they would end up in a deadly tunnel that they could never leave.”

Leo Ray stared at the slanted human skeleton in front of him, its empty skull rolling on the ground, and shook his head helplessly.

After what had happened with the massive goblin skeletons, he had gradually become accustomed to the ancient atmosphere of death.

Subsequently, after a thorough examination, the group found no valuable items on the skeletons and continued moving forward.

About five or six minutes later, the number of corpses in the passage began to increase significantly.

Aside from humans, half-orcs, various demon beasts, and goblins, Leo Ray even saw a centaur’s remains.

While Leo Ray was wondering whether centaurs reproduce by human conception or by horse conception,

Scarlett’s clear voice rang out again, “Lord, come and see this!”
