Chapter 421: Back to the Labyrinth

Adrian summoned his primordial axe and immediately used the first skill.

"Earth Splitter!" Adrian chanted.

The ground that Adrian hit immediately became a crater and stone shards flew all over. The others were shocked with what Adrian did but they were far enough that the shards did not hit them. 

The crater that Adrian made is about a meter deep, but it was still not enough to guarantee passage. It seems that Lauma sent them to a much deeper location so that the labyrinth. The entrance should be around her.

Lauma might have conjured up a door but she was not a demon. She is not able to connect two spaces like demons do. She is an elemental of Life which means she used her powers to connect the living planet's energies for a moment.

Adrian is basically doing the more tedious way as he cannot connect to the space of the labyrinth. He already used dimensional teleportation. He looked at the others and said that any help would be appreciated.

Levin Cloud is the one who did the most work as he could move soil due to his affinity with the land. They stopped digging when they encountered a pulsing rock. Adrian told them that they had reach the labyrinth walls after digging ten meters.

"The labyrinth is a pulsing muscle. Remember not to join you again when it comes to disgusting things like this. Next time elaborate if we will go inside a living labyrinth." Peridot exclaimed.

"It is not a living labyrinth. It is a body of a dark god. It is dead though and that Mad Warlock Cristobal is using it as his hideout. There are many abominations of elementals in the labyrinth.

As I told all of you, the labyrinth is filled with experimented elementals that became monsters. They do not listen to reason as they lost their mind. My only worry is that we he will have a new guardian for his labyrinth." Adrian stated.

"The last time that we were here, the abominations were weak and could be easily killed. But we learned from Lauma that the high leveled abominations were being enhance that time. We will be battling those abominations just in case." Vayu stated.

"Anyways, who wants to be first?" Adrian asked as he gestured towards the pulsing muscle wall of the labyrinth. 

When Adrian said that, everyone became silent as no one wanted to be first. Adrian sighed and decided that he should set an example.

"Aishh. Talk about the confidence of a vanguard. Fine. Kabrakan you should go." Adrian stated as he pointed to his friend.

"Why me?" Kabrakan stated.

"You are our tank, so you have to be the bravest one out of all of us. Levin Cloud will revive you if die on your way down." Peridot stated.

Kabrakan looked over the hole and saw that he might live even if he falls. The only thing he is scared of is being squished to death by a pile of pulsing muscles. He leaned in a bit more to see but he suddenly felt his body dropping.

Kabrakan used all the force that his body could exert and turned around. There he saw the face of a demon with a sinister smile. Kabrakan could only raise his middle finger up towards Adrian.

Adrian did stretch his hand when Kabrakan is about to fall. With Adrian's strength, he could easily pull up the falling Kabarakan. As he is about to reach his hand, Adrian pulled back his hand and waved goodbye towards Kabrakan.

Kabrakan who fell did not collide with the muscle wall, but the wall created a hole in which he fell further. Adrian who saw this immediately used Quantum Cascade and chose the rest as targets.

"Any other volunteers?" Adrian asked but everyone immediately stepped back.

"Why not go since you want us to volunteer? Kabrakan might have died. The raid chat stated that he is unreachable. He is either dead or the labyrinth has blocked communication from the outside." Levin Cloud suggested.

"Oh! Do not worry. I will see you guys in the other side then." Adrian stated as he freely fell in the hole with a carefree expression.

Adrian did not unfurl his wings as the pulsing muscle wall opened up and swallowed his body. When Adrian entered the hole, he also got cut off from the raid chat like Kabrakan.

"What did he mean by he will see us in the other side?" Anastacia asked Levin Cloud. Levin Cloud did not also know what he meant and shrugged his shoulders.

"Maybe he will open a portal for us to enter since he knows where we are." Mariposa surmised.

A few seconds later, they suddenly felt a pulling force. They could not resist as it was so sudden. Their bodies all collided with each other as they all fell to the hole together.

"So, this is what he meant!" Anastacia stated with a displeased tone.

"Trust me. He is always this cunning." Levin Cloud grunted.

They all fit in the hole as it expanded to accommodate all of them together. All of them felt that their bodies fell for a long time but in reality, it was just a minute. When they saw a light coming from the other side, they closed their eyes as it was too bright.

=====

When Adrian pushed Kabrakan, he felt indignation and swore that he will not talk to his friend or even block attacks for him. He is lucky that he is not dead but suddenly pushing him to a hole that could lead to his death is inexcusable.

There was only darkness during his fall, but light came after a minute or two. He fell to a grotesque location that is filled with muscles and veins pulsing as if they are alive. He is not the type to like gory stuff, so he became nauseated.

A few moments later, he saw a figure land in another spot. It was none other than Adrian. He turned around and refused to talk to him. Adrian did not mind and will apologize later as the other would arrive soon.

"Greater Summon: Sirius" Adrian stated.

"Sirius make a cushion for them to fall on." Adrian commanded.

"Fall on?" Kabrakan thought as he looked at Adrian. The others soon followed in a bundle like they were stuck together with a magnet.
