Chapter 755: Chapter 543: Food Hunter_2

Took a deep breath, as if she could smell the scorching scent of magic lingering from the aftermath of the war.

As she arrived in front of the valley, intermittent winds, sobbing like cries, rushed towards Lea, but the wailing soon disappeared, along with the strong gust that had lifted her hair.

She unsheathed her sword and cautiously stepped forward.

The situation wasn’t great; the path ahead was severely collapsed, undoubtedly tied to the doings of the Undead.

Lea tried to find something to stimulate her excitement, but it wasn’t that simple.

After walking down the valley for a while, her vision was shrouded in darkness, with sunlight completely blocked out from outside.

Lea took out a Magic Lantern and gently lit it. The faint light diffused around her center; dust particles floated in the air, clearly visible, almost like fireflies.

Perhaps it was because of the dust that Lea could distinctly feel a slight itch in her nose as she breathed.

The crying sound came again, and because she had fully entered the valley this time, the wind almost seemed to rip her hair off.

Luckily, her strength was not weak, able to withstand the force brought by the natural Gale.

Besides these, no other problems arose.

But moving forward was not so easy.

Lea was forced to search for a recess in the surrounding valley walls to wedge herself into for cover.

After waiting for a while, the sound of the wind ceased.

Lea quickened her pace. She had garnered the experience of acting immediately upon hearing the winds by finding a place to hide and halting her exploratory steps.

After repeatedly doing this, Lea finally managed to dodge the gusts from above, successfully reaching the deepest part of the valley.

This place was a natural landscape she had never encountered before.

Because the valley allowed only a crack overhead, the visibility was low, yet the sound of birds flapping their wings above indicated that life was still present here.

She lowered her lantern slightly, letting its light illuminate the path ahead, although the light did not reach far, making her appear like a giant firefly in the night.

"So as not to trip while walking." she muttered to herself in a joking tone.

The path ahead turned increasingly messy, often making her stop her steps.

Lea’s nose twitched slightly as the fresh scent of animal feces set off alarm bells in her heart.

And suddenly, from a distance came the sound of an animal’s hoarse cry, along with the noise of something rubbing against the ground.

She looked up, only catching a fleeting glimpse of a shadow zipping by.

Curiosity prompted her to try to approach closer, but her caution did not wane.

Thus, she opted to take out an item.

An Illumination Bomb, an Alchemical Tool that encapsulates the Illumination Spell and fires it off.

With a light pull of the string, a blinding bright light shot out from the tubular nozzle.

The orb of light soared in a parabolic trajectory, bouncing upon landing on the ground before finally stopping and bursting into a brilliant shine.

The area within nearly a hundred meters ahead was instantly as bright as daylight.

Lea raised her hand to shield her eyes, squinting through the gaps between her fingers to see ahead.

There were numerous swiftly writhing figures clad in Crystal Armor staring intently towards Lea’s direction.

Their numbers were unimaginably vast.

"Crystal Magical Beast!"

Escape!

Upon clearly seeing the dense swarm of Crystal Magical Beast figures, Lea’s first reaction was to flee.

Seeing her scrambling to escape, the beasts instinctively pursued.

The rumbling sounds of the Crystal Magical Beasts’ running intensified, their sheer numbers resembling a roaring wave.

Because she had been carrying a small lantern upon arrival, Lea hadn’t noticed the formation of the entire valley.

The place was not a narrow path, and the stone walls were not flat and solid, but rather a Beast Nest valley of demon creatures with countless winding paths and caves similar to a honeycomb.

Those Crystal Magical Beasts emerged from the crevices in the rock walls of the valley, the sound of their claws striking the ground echoing continuously.

The crisp sounds of their crystal bodies colliding made Lea’s legs slightly wobbly.

When Lea turned around, she saw a crystal magical beast resembling a mantis charging right in front of her escape route. Its body was covered with a thick layer of mineral-like shell, with legs that looked like two huge broad-bladed swords, and its wings on the back vibrated rapidly, almost invisible to the naked eye.

As its head tilted, its two large compound eyes completely captured Lea’s face.

The giant crystal mantis was too close, only an arm’s distance away!

Lea could even smell the rotten stench emanating from its body.

Under the illumination, she could see her own terrified face reflected in its eyes.

The crystal mantis suddenly leaped forward.

It was not facing a helpless little girl, but the Silver Waterfall Swordswoman Lea, who had become an irreplaceable top star in the tales of the Undead.

With swift movements, her sword sliced off the head of the crystal mantis, its body collided with her, fortunately the mantis’ blades had not yet been raised, so what awaited her was only a slight chest pain, otherwise it would have been a mutual defeat.

Lea held her breath and pushed the corpse of the crystal mantis away with her hands.

"Damn it!"

She said and quickly dashed forward, the sound of pursuit from behind getting closer, not allowing her to stay here.

While running, Lea didn’t forget to take out a Magic Item, trying to use these items to help her escape.

Lea’s speed increased.

More crystal magical beasts surged out in front.

They blocked Lea’s escape route, and some clung to the sides of the valley like spiders.

With a torrent behind her and countless obstacles ahead, Lea could only hear her heart pounding non-stop, her panting not due to exhaustion but due to the tension compelling her to breathe faster, trying in this way to confirm she was still alive.

The magical beasts rushed in tacit agreement.

They seemed to emerge from every unexpected position and blocked Lea’s path of escape.

Lea grabbed some Sword Oil and applied it to her sword, slightly slowing her steps, but a huge crystal magical beast resembling a cockroach charged at her.

However, facing the head-on charge, Lea didn’t stop her movements. She raised her left foot and kicked forward.

Even with a significant size difference, she still kicked the beast over, and sent more magical beasts further ahead and farther away tumbling like bowling pins, clearing out a barely clean path.

But this clean path would soon be filled by magical beasts again.

"You think this number and scale can overwhelm me?"

She then took out a scroll, opened it, and gently wiped it on her sword.

Her sword immediately ignited.

As she swung her wrist, the flames entwined around the blade slowly spun and danced.

The magical beasts in front were also afraid of the fire and halted, retreating hesitantly to the stone walls above the valley, reluctantly clearing a narrow path for her.

They didn’t forget to swipe their claws to stealthily attack when Lea rushed past.

Facing this overwhelming attack by numbers, in this cramped space, Lea simply couldn’t use her advantages. Being surrounded and ultimately dying here was a matter of time.

Another crystal magical beast flew towards Lea, cunningly choosing her blind spot.

However, before it could touch Lea, it was struck by a fireball and burned to a crisp, the charred corpse hitting Lea’s back, causing her to stagger as she ran.

Immediately after, a torrent of flames erupted behind Lea. A scorching firewall rose from the ground, separating Lea from the crystal magical beasts behind her.

In the front, there was a continuous sound of chopping and hacking.

It was a man in a red robe, wielding a curved, slender blade, with a cross-shaped scar on his cheek.

"The hero arrives!"

The man quickly bent down to draw his sword, releasing a moon-shaped slash.

Then four or five magical beasts, split apart, fell to the ground.

More magical beasts tried to ambush him but were pierced through by Flame Arrows flying from farther away.

It was the Undead that Lea had seen before, accompanied by his companions.

Lea admitted that this scene definitely qualified as the hero arriving.

However, the atmosphere was completely ruined when the Undead immediately spoke afterwards.

"Damn it, no more fire, lacking oxygen, mate!"
