Chapter 610: Chapter 430: Another Wave Arises_2

He then gratefully said, “It was thanks to Your Excellency holding off the pressure here that we, who were in the middle of the front, did not suffer from being surrounded by those golem puppets.”

“Lord, you’re too kind.”

Leo Ray smiled lightly and nodded, “Our exploration is a collaboration, so it’s only natural for me to do these trivial matters.”

“Haha, with Mr. Christopher’s words, I feel much more at ease.”

Upon hearing this, Asher Porter smiled and replied, “Please wait a moment, Mr. Christopher. Once we finish regrouping, we will set off immediately.”

After speaking, Asher Porter, the Lord of Viennas City, walked towards the wounded soldiers.

Now, looking at the injured soldiers not far away, although it was not obvious on the surface, Asher Porter couldn’t help but sigh slightly in his heart.

He remembered that at the auction, many Tier 4 nobles had attended.

It could be imagined that if one of these Tier 4 nobles had secured the exploration mission, the situation would not have been so bad.

After all, that young man named Christopher, although he had a good strength and practiced both martial and magical arts, was only at the Tier 3 level.

It should be known that the gap between Tier 3 and Tier 4 powerhouses was undoubtedly huge.

“Had I cooperated with the Grand Elder of the Blackwood Clan who had recently been promoted to Tier 4, I presume this exploration operation would have been much easier.”

With this thought in mind, Lord Asher couldn’t help but shake his head and murmur in his heart, “It seems that we were too hasty back then. If I had known, I wouldn’t have explored these ruins with a youngster like Christopher.”

Thus, after a while and after Asher Porter’s arrangement.

Apart from carrying away the severely wounded soldiers, a mixed middle team of elite Tier 2 soldiers came to support.

At this point, the overall strength of the exploration team has not only been maintained but also enhanced.

Of course, due to the previous battle, everyone had consumed a great deal of energy.

So, taking this into account, the overall strength of the exploration team has not significantly increased.

Noticing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly. For him, all of this made no difference.

Next, after re-forming the horizontal exploration formation like before.

The nearly two hundred-strong exploration team continued to advance in the dark Titan Clan ruins under the illumination of the detection magic.

About ten minutes later, under the escort of the knights, Leo Ray noticed.

At this point, there was still no new discovery around the team other than the giant stone pillars on both sides that looked like high towers.

Only the regular footsteps of the exploration team and the crisp sounds of armor collision continued to linger around his ears.

“From the situation just now, it seems that the Giant Clan is not as bad at magic as I imagined.”

As he breathed in the musty air mixed with dust and moisture in the ruins, Leo Ray couldn’t help but smirk.

He muttered to himself in his heart, “I wonder if there are other guardians of the ruins ahead? By the way, what is this huge building?”

Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this.

With the help of the Star Pupil’s night vision effect, a huge silhouette at least thirty meters tall suddenly appeared in front of him.

At this moment, although the limited night vision distance of the Star Pupil prevented Leo Ray from seeing the object in front of him clearly.

However, judging from the slightly blurred outline, it was obviously a tall and burly giant.

At this moment, under the illumination of the magic light, as if a high beam lamp.

Asher Porter and the others in front also seemed to have noticed the anomaly and stopped in their tracks.

“All detection magic converges in the area directly in front of me!”

Following that, Asher Porter’s slightly tense command echoed.

Next, as beams of light gathered, the true face of the blurry giant in front was revealed to everyone.

Under the illumination of the detection magic, Leo Ray was finally able to confirm.

The object that had appeared in front of them was a huge humanoid statue.

Upon closer inspection, the thirty-meter-tall statue stood at the end of the space ahead and was a brawny and fierce male figure.And also, dressed in bare skin, their bodies covered with mountain-like bulging muscles, both hands holding a huge battle-axe.

At first glance, they looked like an upgraded, enlarged version of those stone soldiers they had just seen.

Especially on that huge, hairless head with a dense beard, their eyes wide open, even the exposed blue veins on their heads were clearly visible, looking extremely ferocious.

“Bare-chested, holding battle-axes, hairless with long beards… this seems to be the war god statue of the Titan Tribe!”

Then, the old voice of Calvin, who suddenly realized, was transmitted to Leo Ray’s ear: “I know now, this is a temple of the Titan Tribe!”

“So that’s it, Master Calvin is truly knowledgeable and well-informed!”

“I didn’t expect to see a temple of a foreign race, which counts as a worthy experience in life.”

“Being so close to Viennas City, it’s unimaginable that there would be such a wonder underground…”

Hearing that, the elite soldiers’ low murmurs of admiration rose and fell, as if the pressure accumulated on the way was released at this moment.

“Lord, the little fellow is quite knowledgeable, this is indeed a temple of the Titan Tribe.”

At the same time, the crisp voice of Red Night passed into Leo Ray’s ear through the mind-talk.

With a slight nod, Leo Ray couldn’t help but laugh helplessly, secretly pondering in his heart: “Good fellow, calling Old Mage Calvin a little fellow? However, it seems that there is nothing wrong with that for the long-lived Dragon Clan.”

At the same time, looking at the giant war god statue in front of them, the knights beside Leo Ray, like Tina and Layne, couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.

Such a sight was indeed a rare scene for ordinary people to ever witness.

“I didn’t expect to find such a complete Titan Tribe temple. It seems that this exploration will go down in history, and our names will be remembered for eternity!”

Immediately afterward, Calvin’s excited old voice came over again.

Then, City Lord Asher’s equally excited voice sounded: “All soldiers, divide into small units and explore separately, carefully checking for any hidden doors or entrances!”

Without a doubt, as giants, the items used by the Titan Tribe were naturally extremely huge. If they could find such treasures, their value would be immeasurable!

Realizing this, Asher’s face showed his delight.

However, just as the atmosphere was filled with happiness and the soldiers were ready to act, a third unexpected change occurred.

Boom-boom-boom…

This time, accompanied by deafening stone-grinding noises.

The earth shook violently like an earthquake.

Consecutively, eight huge blue magic arrays appeared out of thin air on the giant floor tiles around the exploration team.

Following that, the magic energy in the air suddenly became extremely chaotic.

A series of fierce gales formed by the turbulence of magical power swept through, causing everyone to stumble, barely able to open their eyes.

In the blink of an eye, when everyone on-site responded once again,

Eight 10-meter-tall stone giants, radiating a strong murderous aura, appeared in front of everyone.

From their appearance, these stone giants were no different from the previous stone soldiers, only that the weapons in their hands had been replaced with large, heavy stone hammers.

“Form shield formation!”

At this moment, some heavy infantry squads positioned right under one of the giants immediately formed a defensive formation under the guidance of a Tier 3 commander.

Boom!

The next second, the just-formed shield formation was easily smashed away by the stone giant, which was as tall as a three-story building, with its giant stone hammer.

They were scattered all over the place, utterly powerless to fight back.

“Eight advanced magic puppets at the Tier 4 level?!”

Seeing this scene, City Lord Asher’s face turned pale and he almost collapsed to the ground.

At the same time, Gael, Old Mage Calvin, and the knights around Leo Ray, like Tina, Tia, and Layne, all revealed panicked expressions.

Without a doubt, this terrifying power equivalent to a Tier 5 powerhouse was clearly not a force they could contend with.
