Having decided to act, Su Nan and Rose didn’t hesitate and immediately took action.

The human-faced lion statue was exceptionally heavy, even for Su Nan with the strength of a Great Knight, it was difficult to move.

Fortunately, he had other methods.

Boom!

An elite stone golem appeared out of thin air, extending its arms to embrace the statue. It then exerted its strength, lifting the statue in front of Rose’s astonished gaze, moving it to the side.

“This is a stone golem?” Rose looked at it in disbelief.

When did stone golems become so strong?

Even legendary knights wouldn’t be this powerful, right?

However, it wasn’t the time to ponder this, Rose suppressed her surprise and pressed her hand on the ground.

Instantly, the ground within a ten-meter radius rippled like water waves.

After a while, a fist-sized crystal ball slowly emerged from the ground.

Rose snatched up the crystal ball, examining it for a few moments, she exclaimed joyfully, “This is it!”

“Good, let’s leave this place quickly.”

In this short period of time, the commotion in the central plaza had already attracted the attention of the human-faced lions.

At this moment, human-faced lions were charging towards them from all directions.

Su Nan ordered the elite stone golem to stay behind to hold off the pursuers, while he and Rose quickly fled.

The direction they chose was opposite to the city gate they had entered from.

After all, the city gate was currently crowded with a large number of human-faced lions. Going there now would be no different from throwing themselves into the lion’s mouth.

They had to escape from a different direction.

After all, the island city was surrounded by a lake on all sides, it was the same no matter which direction they exited from.

“Intruders!”

“Catch them!”

More than ten human-faced lions charged forward, brandishing their curved swords and ferociously lunging towards them.

However, neither Su Nan nor Rose paid any attention to these ordinary human-faced lion warriors.

They kept moving, and with a wave of their hands, a torrent of lightning swept out, instantly turning the ten human-faced lions into charred corpses.

Faced with two Third-Rank Wizard Apprentices, these human-faced lions, whose strength was only close to that of a Knight, were no match for them. They were slaughtered without resistance, suffering a complete defeat.

Su Nan and Rose successfully crossed the city center.

To avoid the towering stone pillar, which was obviously the residence of the human-faced lion nobles, they deliberately took a detour, circling around it.

But at this moment, a flash of fire appeared ahead, and a large wave of flames surged towards them. The intense heat was almost enough to singe their hair.

Rose instinctively wanted to stop, but then she heard Su Nan’s steady voice in her ear.

“That’s an illusion, charge through it!”

Rose didn’t hesitate, she activated her protective magic item and charged forward.

As expected by Su Nan, the flames that looked scorching hot in front of them turned out to be nothing more than illusory figures when they touched their bodies.

The two passed through the flames unscathed.

Rose glanced at Su Nan in surprise.

“Human-faced lions don’t have magic-like abilities to control fire, they also can’t cast spells, they only know a little bit of illusion magic to confuse their opponents.”

Su Nan explained without turning around, then he waved his hand, and a bolt of lightning struck an empty space.

A scream, ‘Ah’, could be heard, and a figure stumbled out of the air, a human-faced lion.

It landed on the ground, charred and lifeless.

Rose was only a step behind Su Nan in noticing something was wrong. The ring on her right index finger glowed faintly, and a layer of visible grey light spread outwards from her.

Wherever the grey light passed, human-faced lions appeared one after another, their faces contorted in pain. They knelt down, their curved swords clattering to the ground.

‘Hiss hiss!’

Their skin split open, but instead of blood, long, thin grey thorns grew out, gradually spreading over their entire bodies, enveloping them.

In the blink of an eye, the street was filled with huge bundles of grey thorns.

‘Whoosh whoosh!’

However, more human-faced lions leaped out of the air. They all held curved swords and roared at the two with low growls.

These human-faced lions were different from the ones Su Nan had encountered before. They were larger and stronger, their upper bodies were covered in strange patterns that glowed with an eerie light in the dim light.

Their curved swords were also more refined, and without exception, they all wielded two swords.

It was obvious that these were elite warriors among the human-faced lions.

Facing the onslaught of numerous elite human-faced lions, Su Nan and Rose remained unfazed.

Two elite stone golems materialized out of thin air, their heavy footsteps advancing towards the human-faced lions, one behind the other.

Rose took out a seed and threw it forward. The seed quickly split open upon landing, and wispy tendrils grew out, intertwining and forming human-like figures.

Soon, dozens of human-like creatures made entirely of green vines appeared on the street.

They waved their thick arms, made of vines, and roared as they charged towards the human-faced lions.

The two sides soon clashed in a fierce battle.

The minds of Su Nan and Rose were not on these human-faced lions, but on a housetop not far away.

There stood a strange human-faced lion.

Unlike the other human-faced lions engaged in combat, its upper body was that of a human female, with a beautiful face with distinct features, slanted eyebrows and eyes, and a snow-white neck adorned with a silver collar, set off by her long dark blue hair, giving her a more alluring look.

She also wore a black leather armor, her chest area was high and prominent.

To be honest, just looking at the upper body, this was undoubtedly a beauty who could capture any man’s heart at first glance.

However, if one moved their gaze to the lower body, seeing the green serpent tail as thick as a bucket swaying back and forth on the ground, any evil thoughts would be dispelled.

“Is that a human-faced lion too?” Rose’s eyes flickered with confusion.

“That’s a noble among the human-faced lions,” Su Nan said calmly. “Most of the human-faced lions are half-human and half-lion, only the nobles are half-human and half-serpent, and they are mostly female. That one should be a member of the upper ruling class of this city-state.”

“The illusion just now must have been cast by her.”

The human-faced lion nobles are not only skilled in close combat but also possess magic-like abilities of illusion, each of them is a legendary powerhouse in both magic and martial arts.

Rose looked at the human-faced lion noble, and indeed found that besides the curved black serpent short sword hanging from her waist, she also held a long staff inlaid with silver serpent ornaments in her hand.

Rose looked at Su Nan in surprise, she couldn’t help asking, “How did you know so much?”

“From books,” Su Nan casually replied.

Rose half-believed him.

At this time, the human-faced lion noble suddenly spoke.

“Impressive. If I’m not mistaken, you two are wizards.”

She smiled charmingly, her eyes sparkling, as if she wasn’t facing enemies in a life-and-death battle, but a lover she hadn’t seen for years.

“Let me introduce myself, my name is Carolina.”

“It’s been many years since wizards visited our city-state. It’s quite a novelty to have two of you here today.”

“But you barged into our territory without a reason, and you even killed so many of my people. Isn’t that a bit unreasonable? Even wizards shouldn’t act so recklessly, right?”

Rose sneered, “It’s disgusting to hear you say that. Didn’t you just invade the surface world and slaughter an entire village of civilians a while back? Why didn’t you act so reasonable then?”

Carolina suddenly realized, “You are from the Thistle Flower Duchy.”

Su Nan’s expression changed slightly, he glanced at Rose.

It seems that Rose must have found the entrance to the Underworld because of this.

Could she be from the Thistle Flower Duchy?

“So, you’ve come to seek revenge.”

Carolina chuckled, her voice as clear as silver bells.

“Then there’s nothing to talk about. Today, neither of you will be able to…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Su Nan and Rose had already launched their attacks simultaneously, more than ten magic missiles shot towards Carolina, interrupting her words.

Carolina’s expression turned cold, her serpent tail flicked with agility, avoiding most of the missiles.

The remaining missiles hit her body, but it was like leaves falling on the water, causing ripples before disappearing.

Unharmed, Carolina leaped down from the roof and landed steadily on the ground.

She smiled coldly and slammed her staff on the ground.

In a flash, all the human-faced lions present were surrounded by illusory doubles. These doubles then instantly separated, becoming real, and charged towards them all at once.

Suddenly, the number of enemies increased several times.

This was clearly some kind of illusion, Carolina couldn’t possibly summon so many of her people in an instant.

However, under normal circumstances, opponents wouldn’t have time to carefully discern which were illusions and which were real.

Carolina had used this trick to eliminate many powerful opponents in the past.

But this time, she was destined to be disappointed.

Because she was facing the more flexible and versatile Wizard Apprentices.

Su Nan activated his Ice Seal Necklace without hesitation, and instantly, a wave of icy coldness that was almost enough to freeze the marrow spread out from him!

Wherever the shockwave passed, the illusions vanished like popped bubbles, while the real human-faced lions were frozen into ice with a crackle!

In a blink of an eye, the street was filled with dozens of ice sculptures.

Seeing this, not only Carolina, but even Rose was startled.

“Glow-Grade magic item!”

Rose took a deep breath, her eyes filled with both envy and surprise.

It was incredibly difficult to obtain a Glow-Grade magic item these days, and it was unimaginable to create one yourself.

She had accumulated so many years of experience, and she had over ten magic items, but none of them were Glow-Grade, they were all Alchemy-Grade.

Now, seeing the amazing power of the Glow-Grade magic item, she couldn’t help but envy it!

“I didn’t expect players to have such good stuff.”

Rose had a new understanding of the wealth of players.

After breaking through Carolina’s illusion with a single attack, taking advantage of the human-faced lions’ confusion, Su Nan flicked his finger, and a sparkling gem shot out like a bullet.

Boom!

In mid-air, the gem released a dazzling blue-green light, transforming into a thick bolt of lightning that slammed down on Carolina, instantly engulfing her.

“Go!”

Su Nan shouted in a low voice, leaving the two elite stone golems behind to block the enemies, while he and Rose quickly fled.

This was, after all, the enemy’s stronghold, they couldn’t stay too long, they had to leave quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared into the end of the street.

At the same time, a piercing scream erupted.

The wind blew away the dust, revealing Carolina’s figure.

Her body was covered in charred marks, and most of the scales on her serpent tail had fallen off, she was completely devoid of her previous alluring beauty, she looked incredibly miserable.

“Damn wizards!”

“Damn humans!”

Carolina glared at the direction Su Nan and Rose had left with a venomous look, knowing that it was too late to chase after them, she slammed her staff on the ground in anger.

“Carolina, my lady.”

A group of human-faced lions came running from afar, led by a tall human-faced lion.

He stared at the injured Carolina with a shocked expression.

In his memory, the powerful Carolina, my lady, had never been so miserable.

What kind of intruders could injure Carolina, my lady, to this extent?

Carolina glanced at him, her face gloomy, “Angus, how is the city gate?”

Angus lowered his gaze and respectfully replied, “The enemies have all been eliminated!”

He hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly said, “But, my lady, those enemies were strange, they didn’t seem to be truly intelligent creatures.”

Carolina said coldly, “Those are golems, puppets made by wizards.”

“Wizards!”

Angus was shocked.

The ones who attacked the city-state were actually wizards, no wonder even Carolina, my lady, was injured like this.

Throughout the vast Underworld, there are still many legends about wizards.

They are a terrifying existence even more fearsome than dragons, dark elves, and frost ghouls!

“Take the injured to be treated. Keep an eye on the slaves in the lower city, lest any foolish fools cause trouble. I’m going to report this to the Lord.”

“Yes, Carolina, my lady!”

Watching Carolina disappear, Angus turned to look at the devastated streets. His gaze lingered for a moment on the two shattered golems, and he frowned.

“Someone, clean up this mess!”

After successfully breaking out, Su Nan and Rose immediately used their invisibility spell, their figures disappearing into the shadows again.

The pursuers had been blocked by the two elite stone golems, and on their subsequent journey, they had only encountered sporadic human-faced lions, and they had escaped the city without further hindrance.

It wasn’t until they returned to the original cave that Su Nan and Rose relaxed.

“Thank you for that,” Rose said with a light smile to Su Nan.

They were able to successfully retrieve the key to the wizard’s legacy from the human-faced lion city-state, all thanks to Su Nan.

If he hadn’t used the golems to attack the city gate, drawing the attention of the main human-faced lion force, and then injured the human-faced lion noble with thunderous force, they wouldn’t have been able to escape so easily.

Su Nan’s strength was even greater than she had imagined!

Especially that blow that severely injured the human-faced lion noble, it resembled an energy rune, but it was far more powerful than an energy rune. Even Rose couldn’t help but be startled.

Su Nan shook his head and didn’t say anything.

He was mainly in pain.

The three elite stone golems and one hundred stone golems left in the city-state had a total value of over ten thousand gold coins!

That was equivalent to a month’s profit from the mine!

He had paid a considerable price to get the key to unlock the wizard’s legacy.

“Hopefully, the things in the wizard’s legacy can make up for my losses.”

Su Nan pondered silently.
