Chapter 217 Entrance to the Depths
They were all packing up their materials, only Ye Fan was in a daze as he looked at the path in front of him. There was only one path here, but they had just walked this path to the entrance of the volcano. If they took this path, they would be back to the beginning, so where was the path to the depths?
Just as he was in a daze, a blue vortex suddenly appeared behind Ye Fan. Nothing could be seen in the vortex, the others immediately noticed the vortex and surrounded it.
"This should be the entrance to the depths." Ye Fan said.
Xiao Xiao was a little hesitant. Seeing that his teammates' pets were basically all injured, and Rank-7 monsters had appeared in the periphery, it was probably possible that Rank-8 monsters had appeared in the depths. Then, this was different from the information they had gathered in advance. If they continued forward, they would be courting death.
"So, the Blue Viper just now should be guarding the entrance," Xiao Xiao analyzed.
Ye Fan nodded in agreement. He knew that it was best for Xiao Xiao's hunting group to stop as their strength only reached this level. He did not know what kind of danger was on the other side of the vortex. It was naturally not a big problem for him, but the hunting group had suffered 40% damage along the way. If they entered, they would probably encounter some danger and find it difficult to escape.
Ye Fan and Xiao Xiao were not the only ones who realized this problem, the rest of the hunters also realized it.
"We encountered many Rank-5 and Rank-6 monsters here, and we also encountered two Rank-7 monsters. Doesn't that mean there are many Rank-7 monsters in the depths?" A member said. He knew that his pet was injured, and they didn't have the strength to enter.
"That's right, Guild Leader. Our mission is to explore the periphery to begin with. Why don't we stop here and not go in? It must be very dangerous inside." The members retreated one after another. This was because they had originally come to explore the periphery and already found the materials. This way, they could kill two birds with one stone. Moreover, they could update the information on the periphery and gain attention online. It was already very good for them to gain so much from this trip.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Xiao was originally a little hesitant, because many adventurers had already come to the periphery, but no one had been to the depths. He really wanted to see what it looked like inside, and it was said that the materials inside were even rarer than the periphery. Moreover, if they came alone, they might not be strong enough, but with Ye Fan around, he was hoping that they could come out safely.
However, his teammates' strength did not allow him to make the decision on his own. He nodded and planned to retreat, but Ye Fan was only Rank-7. If he insisted on going in, he would probably die. As the leader, he could not ignore the life and death of his teammates. He could only turn around and go back now. After all, he had gained a lot from this trip.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao looked at Ye Fan.
"Our mission has been completed. The depths are filled with danger. You have to be careful. We'll wait for you in the Adventurer's Hall when we return."
At this moment, before Ye Fan could speak, the vortex suddenly began to produce a suction force. This suction force was very strong, instantly sucking Xiao Wu away. Seeing this, Xiao Xiao was about to pull her away, but he was also sucked in by the vortex. Ye Fan could feel a huge energy fluctuation in the vortex, making him unable to move. He was also sucked in by this powerful suction force, and his vision darkened.
When Ye Fan opened his eyes again, he was no longer facing a volcano, but an ancient forest that was filled with the air of spring.
He looked around and realized that the environment here was worlds apart from the volcano outside. The spring here was like a dream. According to the terrain and temperature of the volcano, how could there be such a huge difference? However, it was no wonder that he had sensed that there seemed to be a barrier sealing off a huge amount of energy in the volcano. Now, it seemed that he was already inside the barrier.
"Leader!"
"Xiao Wu, Zhang Xiong, Ah Qing, Changhe, Luo Yang, why are you here too?"
Xiao Xiao's voice sounded. Ye Fan turned around and found that the members of the Green Stone Hunter Group were also swept into the vortex without exception.
"Leader, what should we do now? The entrance is gone! Are we unable to get out?" Xiao Wu asked worriedly. She had originally planned to leave, but now that the vortex had sucked her in and the entrance had disappeared, she didn't know what danger was waiting for them.
The environment here looked very strange, as if it was a new world. They had never seen such a place on the Internet before, which meant that this was a completely new and unknown place to them.
"I didn't see any information about this place on the Internet. This might be the depths of a volcano, or it might be a new mystic realm. I think the entrance sucked people in and disappeared, it might be because the entrance is not an exit, the exit might be somewhere else." Ye Fan said.
Xiao Xiao was stunned. He looked at his teammates who were looking at him eagerly and instantly felt pressured. This was because the energy fluctuation here was very strong, enough to show that it was much more dangerous than the volcano.
Everyone looked anxious and worried. They did not know what to do next. The current situation was really not optimistic.
But there was no anxiety on Ye Fan's face, he was calm and looked forward to what he would encounter. It was very likely that an Earth Core Rock would appear in this mystic realm, that would be great.
Their surroundings were like a forest, but there were no roads around them. The only road was a bridge ten meters away. The bridge was very narrow, about the width of four or five people, and at the end of it was a cave.
"Let's take it one step at a time. We can only find the exit now. Waiting for death is not a solution. Everyone, don't get separated. The situation here is unknown. Everyone, be vigilant." After Xiao Xiao calmed down, the first thing he did was to comfort his teammates. He did what a leader should do and made up his mind to bring everyone out safely no matter what.
When they went to the wooden bridge, Anissa felt something and immediately became vigilant. At the same time, Ye Fan also discovered the huge thing on the bridge. When everyone saw the huge monster, they were shocked. A mammoth was standing in the middle of the wooden bridge, which was about five to six meters wide and more than ten meters tall. Due to the fact that the mammoth did not emit any aura, they did not notice it at first.
"Heavens, it's a mammoth, a peak Rank-7 monster! What should we do?!" Xiao Wu was about to cry. They had just started and they had already encountered such a level of monster. What kind of luck did they have today? They had actually encountered so many Rank-7 monsters in a row.
The others' expressions were not any better. They could only look at their leader, Xiao Xiao, not knowing what to do next. The highest level in the team was only Rank-7, but the monster in front of them was at the peak of Rank-7. Although Ye Fan had just defeated a few Rank-7s, this one was at the peak of Rank-7. Even if they joined forces, they might not be able to defeat it.
