Chapter 870 – Trouble Inside The Cave

Chapter 870 - Trouble Inside The Cave

Outside the Dark Poison Swamp, Lorenzo was gritting his teeth, watching how his brother left.

His heart was filled with remorse as even he doubted Theo would survive inside the Dark Poison Swamp.

Still, this was Theo's plan. No matter how weird it was, Theo should have made some preparations beforehand. All he could do was to pray that Theo could indeed survive.

'Goodbye, brother. I hope to see you again in the future.' Lorenzo muttered inwardly before turning to the pope.

"It's normal to worry. However, you need to stay strong. This is not the end… I don't know why but my eyes are tingling. I feel like we're going to meet him again in the near future." The pope smiled and muttered in a low voice, so the Griffith Family Experts didn't hear them.

On the other hand, one of the experts asked his colleagues. "How is it?"

"Yeah, I still sense him. He's inside the Dark Poison Swamp, moving. His movement is not that fast, so I think the poison is stronger than his plan." His friend confirmed it, unaware that Theo simply ran slower because he wanted to ensure everyone's safety.

"That's great. No matter how strange that kid is, he won't be able to survive inside the Dark Poison Swamp. We'll monitor this area for a few days, making sure he dies. If it's not enough,we'll enter this place in the winter and confirm his death."

"Got it."

While they were discussing, the pope then flew away with Lorenzo in his hand.

Those four experts immediately furrowed their eyebrows, feeling a bit displeased that the people that hindered them this whole time wanted to leave just like that.

"Stop!" One of them couldn't contain their anger and shouted.

"What?" The pope furrowed his eyebrows while putting on his blindfold again. "I want to take this child home with me. He's not your target, so I can, right?"

"You stopped us from killing that bastard, and now you want to leave? That Lorenzo helped him. We have no problem letting you leave, but he needs to die."

"That's something I can't agree with." The pope raised his hand as four figures appeared next to him in an instant. He asked once again but with a stricter tone. "Or would you want to fight us?"

Those Mythical Rank Experts could only swallow their hatred when they saw all the four Great Holy Knights who were still in good shape. If they fought the Great Holy Knights in their current state, they would surely die without accomplishing anything.

One of them finally raised his hands and said, "I apologize for my friend's remark. It's been a stressful day, so I hope that the pope can forgive him."

The pope smiled and flew away, saying, "God forgives. I will do the same."

Those four experts could only watch the pope bring Lorenzo away while being escorted by the four Great Holy Knights.

Since they couldn't do anything, one of them said, "Anyway, our main objective is Theodore Griffith. Let's spread out and make sure he doesn't leave this place."

They nodded and surrounded the Dark Poison Swamp while spreading their ability, locating Theo inside the swamp.

…

"There is no ending to this!" Meanwhile, Agata complained while solidifying her smoke and turning it into a shield, blocking a huge bull's horn.

"I won't complain, but I understand her feeling." Ava nodded with a grim expression.

They were inside a cave, surrounded by numerous monsters. At first, they found this cave by accident.

There were numerous monsters coming out of the cave earlier, so they waited until all of them left and entered. However, they didn't expect that the cave stretched far inside, and there were still so many monsters hiding inside.

In the end, the monsters called those who were inside.

The action repeated and caused a chain reaction from the monsters that somehow brought out the monsters inside the cave.

In just a few minutes, Agata and Ava had killed a hundred monsters, who were one step away from Supreme Rank.

The cave was pretty long, and before they knew it, the monsters from the outside also returned, locking them inside.

Since they had gone too deep, Theo chose to go deeper, hoping they would reach the end soon, and formed a small fortress for them to live in for a few days. This was necessary if they wanted to fake their death as well.

While killing the monsters, Agata asked, "Should we just go back?"

"I can feel the end." Ava pointed forward. "It shouldn't be that far from here. We just need to persist a bit more and kill around 500 more monsters."

"That's easy for you to say. Even if we're Supreme Rank Experts, Theo can't do anything and our movements are limited." Agata rolled her eyes.

"That's true, but you can focus on the defense. I'll be the one exerting my Magic Power to kill them." Ava shrugged. "Anyway, just keep moving. This darkness has blinded some monsters, so it's easier to kill them."

"That's true, I guess." Agata agreed and continued to advance.

The group then moved bit by bit, fending off so many monsters. If Agata hadn't trained herself in the Simulation Room back in the US, they would be in trouble. She now could control her pink smoke perfectly now, so there wasn't a single monster that slipped past her pink smoke.

But this situation didn't last long.

Suddenly, the ground started shaking as though there was something moving underneath their feet.

"Well, I think this is a monster lair…" Theo's expression turned serious as he felt the movement underground.

"Yeah." Agata put on a troubled face as she also sensed it.

"I did hear it, but I never thought that guy was coming here." Ava let out a long sigh.

*Rumble!*

*Rumble!*

The ground started shaking. Some areas even began to crack.

Boom.

Suddenly, the floor was ripped apart as a giant black snake emerged from the ground, staring at them while sticking out its long and slender tongue.

"Shaa!"
