465: Chapter 485: The Change of the Ring _1 465: Chapter 485: The Change of the Ring _1 Lin Chen dared not move.
These ugly monsters were not big individually, each probably about 30 centiters in size, with sharp teeth that seed to pierce their mouths, sharp claws, and a pair of dark gray eyes devoid of life, exuding a sense of death, causing people to fear them.
Lin Chen could kill several of the monsters with a single slap.
However, now they surrounded Lin Chen, densely packed layer upon layer, extending into the darkness invisible to the firelight, perhaps thousands or even tens of thousands of them.
If they sward at him, even an iron man would not be able to withstand such an onslaught.
Lin Chen finally understood why the previously seen five skeletons were drenched in blood, yet not a trace of flesh remained on them.
Evidently, all the flesh had gone into these monsters’ stomachs within an instant of the cultivators being killed.
Surrounded, Lin Chen could only hope that these monsters were afraid of fire.
Suddenly, a monster flapped its wings and flew toward Lin Chen.
Lin Chen’s heart sank, and he took a step back, leaning against the wall.
With a palm strike, he instantly killed the monster.
The next second, countless monsters flew up and attacked Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was not willing to sit and wait for death.
He quickly returned to the burning room, and soon, nurous bricks mixed with flas splashed around.
The monsters that rushed over instantly fell, but as they fell, even more monsters pounced on them, tearing their bodies into pieces and swallowing them, leaving only dark bloodstains on the ground.
Lin Chen swung two burning wooden sticks, using the flas to drive away the dense swarm of monsters at the entrance.
Indeed, these monsters were afraid of fire and instinctively avoided the flas.
Yet, there were too many of them, and Lin Chen’s wrist was attacked first as he swung the fire sticks.
A monster scratched a deep wound on his wrist, and blood gushed out.
The blood flowed down his fingers and onto the ring he had picked up earlier.
The ancient patterns on the ring swiftly absorbed the blood, causing it to suddenly light up, transforming into a light-shadow, like a 3D projection.
Lin Chen was shocked by this sudden developnt and recognized the light-shadow as the elegant middle-aged man he had seen on the mountainside earlier.
As if possessing life, the light-shadow of the middle-aged man casually pointed at the air.
A golden light instantly appeared in the sky, rapidly expanding like bubbles.
The golden light circles filled the air, causing every monster it touched to fall to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, it seed as if it started raining monsters.
The golden light circles spread to a diater of 100 ters before transforming into light points that disappeared into the air.
Above the ground, a dense layer of monster corpses appeared.
However, the monsters at a distance of 100 ters remained densely packed.
Seemingly not scared at all, they flapped their wings again, flying toward Lin Chen at the central area.
The middle-aged man frowned, turned around, smiled slightly at Lin Chen, and then pointed a finger at Lin Chen’s forehead.
The light-shadow of the middle-aged man slowly faded away.
As the monsters closed in on Lin Chen frantically, they suddenly seed to encounter sothing terrifying, turning around in panic and beating their wings in absolute fear.
They quickly retreated from Lin Chen, not stopping until they were ten ters away.
Under the firelight, an eerie scene unfolded.
With corpses scattered all around, Lin Chen stood before the fire, surrounded by these monster remains.
Not a single monster was found within a spherical radius of ten ters around him.
But beyond the ten ters, the area was dark and dense with monsters.
Lin Chen’s emotions had been through a roller coaster, and now he finally cald down a bit.
He tentatively took a few steps forward and discovered, to his delight, that the monsters retreated in horror, only stopping once they were again ten ters away from him.
Overjoyed, Lin Chen recalled the middle-aged man’s light-shadow touching his forehead.
The man had wiped out many monsters with just one move, but seeing that they were endless, he changed his strategy and cast a mysterious spell on Lin Chen that acted like a fear BUFF.
The effective range of this BUFF was ten ters.
The flas engulfing the nearby houses grew fiercer, reaching for the sky.
Lin Chen picked up his flashlight and the dead team’s backpack, and then ran wildly away from the scene.
This fire might attract other Master Teams.
If they saw this, he would be unable to explain himself.
If he left the Underground City and returned to the world outside, wouldn’t everyone target him?
It was too dangerous!
Lin Chen now only wanted to return to a world full of sunshine as quickly as possible!
After running an unknown distance, the sensation of being watched suddenly disappeared.
Lin Chen stopped, swept his flashlight around, but found no monsters.
Had they actually let him go?
Overjoyed, Lin Chen finally had the ti to look at the brass ring on his right-ring finger after calming down.
The ring still looked the sa as before, seemingly unchanged.
Lin Chen gently reached out to touch the ring.
However, just as his hand made contact with it, sothing strange happened once again!
