“Let’s walk deeper. We might be able to find some clues.” As Lin Shuang spoke, he raised the torch in his hand and continued forward, trying to find more clues in the cave.
The three of them could only follow behind. They walked deeper into the cave, and the rancid smell became even stronger. The depths of the cave were filled with an even stronger stench, more like the smell of a rotting corpse. The terrain inside had also become very complicated, and there was a lot of gravel on the ground.
“Be careful when you walk. Don’t trip.” Lin Shuang reminded them patiently as he kept looking around. Not long after, they reached the depths of the cave and suddenly heard a roar. It frightened Lu Wan so much that she threw the torch in her hand to the ground. “Don’t be afraid. The three of you wait where you are. I’ll go take a look.”
The three of them stood where they were and Lin Shuang quickly ran forward. Three forks immediately appeared in front of him. He squatted on the ground unhurriedly and shone the torch at the footprints underground. The path on the left had the most footprints, but they all went without returning. There were no footprints in the middle, and there were only scattered footprints on the right.
However, what really surprised Lin Shuang was that although there were no footprints on the middle path, there was some animal feces. Just as he was about to explore the left path, he suddenly heard Lu Wan’s scream behind him. “Ah! Help!”
Lin Shuang immediately turned around and ran back. When he returned, he realized that the three of them were surrounded by a group of zombies.
Green Blood Zombie (Elite)
Level: 14
Health: 4,500
Attack: 300
Defense: 450
Skill: Green Blood Devour
Introduction: An adventurer who died after his blood was sucked dry by a Vampire Bat. He is trapped in the cave. He has a strong sense of attack and an extreme desire for blood, but he doesn’t seem to be willing to walk out of the cave.
They actually encountered a Level 14 Elite monster. Be it attack or defense, they had a huge increase. This level was higher than the three of them. Elite monsters of this level were not a threat to him, but they were a little dangerous to the other three.
“Why are the elite monsters in the cave so high-leveled? Their attacks and defense are so powerful. Are the three of us going to die?”
No wonder there were players who came to pick up equipment but could not leave. How could such a high-level elite monster let them go? However, through the introduction, they also knew that there were Vampire Bats here. It was very likely that the Vampire Bat was the Boss here.
“Don’t move.” Lin Shuang immediately raised the Sword of God in his hand, and a magnificent golden light appeared. He moved extremely quickly and raised the sword in his hand high. “Ghost Shadow Slash!”
He slashed at these zombies, actually causing group damage. Accompanying large numbers, there were countless smaller numbers.

No matter how high the defense of these zombies was, they could not block Lin Shuang’s powerful damage. The effect of this attack was still very obvious. Lin Shuang was more satisfied. The three of them were also attacking, trying to help Lin Shuang share the burden.
The zombies were suddenly attacked. Their eyes turned red as they roared ferociously and attacked Lin Shuang angrily. These zombies had high defense, but they were very slow. Fortunately, Lin Shuang was agile and was not attacked by these zombies.
Lin Shuang felt the soft and moist soil under his feet. He did not run very fast. Instead, he kept luring the zombies deeper into the cave. After a while, he killed two zombies, but they did not drop any equipment. He only obtained some copper coins.
There were also seven or eight zombies baring their fangs and brandishing their claws at him. Lin Shuang led them deeper into the cave. He kept attacking the zombies while creating an opportunity for the three of them to successfully hide behind him.
Soon, there were only four zombies left. The remaining zombies were all killed.
Lin Shuang raised the Sword of God in his hand, and a golden aura immediately filled the entire sword. Unknowingly, he had already reached the fork in front of the cave. Behind him was the middle path, and the three people behind him had already walked into the middle path.
Just as he was about to kill all these zombies, the zombies saw that Lin Shuang’s feet had stepped into the middle intersection and immediately retreated in fear. He originally thought that these zombies would continue to attack, but he didn’t expect them to escape like cowards.
“Why did they run away? Did you scare them away because you were too powerful?”
Lin Shuang was also a little puzzled, but he knew that the truth was definitely not as Fatty had said. Perhaps there was some unspeakable secret on the middle path, or there was a hidden danger that could make zombies feel afraid. It seemed that this secret was not simple.
“No matter what, we’ve temporarily escaped danger. These zombies have probably run far away. We’ve picked up most of the equipment on the way. Let’s recover briefly and continue our journey.”
Everyone quickly gathered together. After everyone was in a good state, they were relieved. He carefully looked at everyone’s levels and formulated a new plan.
Fatty leveled up faster and was already Level 13. Lu Wan followed closely behind and reached Level 12. As for the newly joined Chu Feng, he had just reached Level 10, but his progress bar was about to be maxed out. He would reach Level 11 soon.
“In a while, I’ll kill the monsters in front. You guys will continue to deal damage. Lu Wan will increase the healing effect for the entire team. Fatty, attack from the left and cooperate with me. Chu Feng, keep dealing damage. You must ensure everyone’s safety and not be injured by these monsters.”
Chu Feng nodded repeatedly. He didn’t want to become the team’s greatest flaw. Naturally, he would cherish this chance to level up so quickly. Just as everyone was about to set off towards the middle path, Lin Shuang brought them out and walked to the right path.
“There are no footprints on the middle path, which means that there’s even more danger here. Although many people went to the left, none of them survived. Boss is very likely here, so according to our current situation, it’s more appropriate to take the right side.”
After some analysis, everyone listened to Lin Shuang’s arrangements wholeheartedly. They walked into the tunnel on the right. There was no longer the rancid smell from before. Instead, there was a strong smell of blood. The deeper they went, the stronger the smell of blood.
“I suspect those Vampire Bats are here.”
If not for the Vampire Bats, this place would not have been filled with the strong smell of blood. Lu Wan immediately became vigilant. The four of them held the torches in their hands tightly. The soil under their feet became a little hard. There was no gravel, but some animal feces appeared.
“Looks like we’re about to approach the Vampire Bats.”
