Chapter 431: Minotaur Labyrinth
Chapter 431: Minotaur Labyrinth
Outside the city of Irimu, the sky was filled with yellow sand and a mirage appeared in the sky, showing a group of obelisks, like a city floating in the sky.
The rolling setting sun slowly descends from the end of the horizon, and the dusk shines on the ruins of an ancient city buried in the sand. The collapsed stone pillars, broken walls, and cuneiform characters on the stone slabs all tell the history.
Ye Zhi hid his body and looked down from a high altitude, but saw that there were still people in animated armor dragging rusty bronze swords, walking aimlessly in the ruins of the ancient city.
“Ancient Assyria once experienced a holy war. The ancient city was baptized by heavenly fire. The sinners were deprived of their souls and could only be trapped in this ancient battlefield to suffer eternal torture.”
Daisy’s phantom floated beside Yeats, followed Yeats’s line of sight, and said lightly:
“There’s no need to disturb them… Just enter the maze from the main door in the middle of the two bronze pillars.”
Ye Zhi nodded slightly.
The two groups of people just now have entered this bronze gate one after another.
The gate leads to the Minotaur’s Labyrinth, which is even more famous in mythology than Pan’s Labyrinth. The ancestral monster guarding the labyrinth should not be underestimated.
“I just vaguely heard the assassin with only one ear following the girl calling her the Saint.” Mammon’s tone did not hide his desire for treasure at all. “Do you think they have any treasures with them? Why don’t we pick up their treasures in the maze?”
“As long as they can’t snatch it from us, then we’ll just ‘pick it up’, right?” Ye Zhi emphasized the pronunciation.
“The treasures in this world are naturally only worthy of being possessed by the strong!” Mammon said confidently.
In fact, magical instruments of rare quality were no longer in Yeats’s eyes; they had to be of at least epic quality.
And if this saint is really the leader of the Assassin’s League who appeared in the plot, then she is likely to carry an invisibility cloak with her.
This cloak of invisibility is a gift from the demon god Sloth and is also the key to forging the Ring of the Nibelung.
“It seems like every time I go out, I can complete two tasks at once…” Ye Zhi stroked his chin and thought to himself, “It makes sense to take that File Saint to speed through the maze and use the Demon God’s ritual vessel as protection money!”
Activating the winged boots on his feet, Yeats flew to the bronze gate and observed the patterns carved on the gate. He saw that these reliefs had a strange atmosphere and weird contents, all of which were based on the theme of humans worshiping gods in the shape of bulls.
“The Minotaur was worshipped by humans for a long time. Of course, it was just an evil god who fed on young boys and girls.” Daisy warned, “You have to be careful, Yeats. The evil god is not like the lovely goddess of mist. She will not show mercy to you!”
How can you say that you are cute…Yeats looked at the goddess of mist speechlessly. Seeing her blinking innocently, he sighed silently in his heart…Okay, Daisy is indeed very cute.
The premise is that she doesn’t do anything dangerous…
Ye Zhi entered the maze from the bronze gate and was immediately hit by a chill and the smell of blood.
The maze was extremely dark, with towering stone walls on all sides. The air was filled with the smell of dampness and decay. From the bottomless shadows, the sound of monsters gnawing on bones could be faintly heard.
Ye Zhi threw a flash of light over there, and suddenly, the dazzling sunlight shone in the cramped and narrow maze.
A minotaur who was lying on the ground eating suddenly let out a roar, his copper-bell-like eyes filled with rage.
“Grandpa Bei, I leave it to you.”
Yeats ordered: “These are all proteins, don’t waste them.”
“Ah!” Behemoth let out an excited roar.
Under the Minotaur’s horrified gaze, Behemoth’s body swelled rapidly. His iron-like muscles emitted a metallic luster. His pair of sharp horns that curved upward surged with purple-red flames. His bright eyes looked at the Minotaur with ill intent.
Let me see if you are developing normally!
Suddenly, Behemoth pounced at the Minotaur and knocked it to the ground with its sharp claws!
The Minotaur struggled desperately, but it was obviously not the hand of Behemoth who possessed the power of a royal monster, and soon became Behemoth’s delicious meal.
This labyrinth is not only guarded by a single minotaur, but has developed into a tribe that feeds on human flesh sent as tribute by the Assyrian Empire, and every minotaur’s hands are stained with blood.
With the idea of eliminating the evil for the people, Ye Zhi ordered Behemoth to leave no one alive, while he himself paid attention to the movements in other directions of the maze. “We didn’t enter through the same route as the two groups just now.”
The fish of wisdom Feitan said slowly: “But… the end point is in the deepest room of the maze.”
“Then speed up and wait for the other two groups directly at the finish line.” Ye Zhi suggested.
“Is it really okay to be so reckless…” Feitan expressed his concern.
Ye Zhi curled his lips.
If I can’t act recklessly even if I’m at a higher level than them, then I’ve been working in vain!

Deep in the maze.
Inanna clutched the necklace tightly in front of her chest. The “Necklace of the God of Love” emitted a soft glow, illuminating the dark walls.
Her face was pale, fear and timidity continued to spread in her heart, but she still moved forward step by step into the depths of darkness.
Must… kill the monster in the deepest part of the maze.
Only in this way can the girl’s soul find peace…even at the cost of her life!
Suddenly.
An exceptionally powerful will surged from the depths of the maze.
The earth shook and a giant beast-like figure stood in the center of an open square.
“You have disturbed the spirit of the Minotaur!”
The figure was glowing with azure light, wearing a blood-red armor, holding a huge battle axe, and roaring angrily.
“You will pay the price for your blasphemous act!!”
Facing the creatures in the epic, a sense of oppression like a mountain loomed over Inanna’s shoulders.
Her breathing became rapid and her pupils trembled. The courage she had just mustered up with great difficulty disappeared in an instant!
“W-why… has this monster awakened?”
Inanna originally wanted to take advantage of the moment when the monster in the labyrinth was off guard and use the goddess’s token to get rid of it.
However, the monsters were now in combat mode and were far beyond Inanna’s ability to contend with!
“This…what is going on?”
Confused and bewildered, Inanna’s pupils shrank slightly, and she saw a human figure standing right in front of the bull-headed beast!
It was a suit of armor as black as ebony armor, with a cold metallic luster.
The knight in heavy black armor stands in front of the epic beast with his bare hands!
“The Tauren Ancestor Spirit?”
Bang!
The black-armored knight rushed out swiftly, his body breaking through the air flow, and in an instant he was right in front of the huge monster!
“Just right, I’ll use your bull head as a drink!”
boom!
A straight punch was thrown.
Inanna was puzzled.
The monster, as huge as a mountain, was unexpectedly knocked back head-on by this punch. Its entire body flew backwards and slammed heavily against the wall at the edge of the square, shaking the maze with a “boom”!
The giant beast finally staggered to its feet, shook its buzzing head vigorously, and looked at the black-armored knight in front of it in horror.
How could this human being… have such amazing power!
