The passage was narrow and cramped, and everyone was running wildly in it. The rumbling footsteps of the giant stone puppets behind them were like a death warrant, shaking the stone walls on both sides of the passage so that dust fell off.

"Damn, this thing is like a dog-skin plaster, I can't get rid of it!" The interstellar knight complained as he ran, his heavy breathing echoing in the narrow space.

"Everyone, be careful with your steps!" The Messenger of Light reminded them that the ground in the passage was uneven and one could easily fall flat on their face if they were not careful.

Suddenly, a fork in the road appeared ahead. Two dark passages were like the bloody mouths of giant beasts, quietly waiting for them to make a choice.

"Which way are you going?" The interstellar knight slammed on the brakes and almost hit Zhang Cheng who was running in front of him.

Time is running out. The footsteps of the giant stone puppet are getting closer and closer, and one can almost feel the hot air it is emitting.

"Left!" The Nebula Sage pointed to the passage on the left and said firmly, "I have observed the direction of the passage. The left side is more in line with the design rules of the maze and is more likely to lead to the exit."

"No!" Zhang Cheng retorted, "Look at the stone wall of the right passage. There are obvious traces of friction, which means someone has walked through it before. The exit should be on the right!"

"Friction marks? Those could also be left by the giant stone puppet!" Nebula Sage argued, "Trust my judgment, the left side is safer!"

"Safety! Which road is safe now? Instead of trusting your metaphysical inference, why not take a gamble!" Zhang Cheng pointed to the passage on the right, "Fortune and wealth are sought in danger, charge!"

"You are acting recklessly!"

"Master, now is not the time for class!"

The two men were arguing, but the giant stone puppet behind them was getting closer and closer, and their hideous outline could almost be seen.

"Stop arguing!" the Light Messenger shouted anxiously, "It will be too late if we don't leave now!"

"Listen to me and go left!" Nebula Sage emphasized again.

Zhang Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "I bet on the right side! If you want to go, you go, I'll go first!" After saying that, he rushed into the passage on the right without looking back.

"Zhang Cheng!" The Messenger of Light exclaimed, hesitated for a moment, and then rushed in following Zhang Cheng.

The Star Knight shrugged, "Follow Brother Cheng, there's meat to eat! Let's go!"

The Nebula Sage sighed helplessly and could only follow everyone into the passage on the right.

"Wait..." He suddenly stopped, his face turned pale, and pointed at a vague outline in the darkness ahead, "What...what is that..."

The outline gradually became clear, huge and twisted, like a monster crawling out of a nightmare - a shadow demon.

It spread its huge black wings, covering the sky and the sun, and a suffocating dark atmosphere instantly spread.

"Shit! What the hell is that?!" The interstellar knight screamed, and felt his body as heavy as if it were filled with lead, and it was difficult for him to even lift his legs.

"Oh no, it's the Shadow Demon!" The Nebula Sage's face turned pale, "Its dark aura can suppress our power!"

"What's there to be afraid of? Kill him!" The Star Knight is indeed the representative of reckless men. He endured the discomfort in his body, picked up his weapon and rushed forward.

"Take this stick from me, old man!"

Unfortunately, the attack he was so proud of was like a tickle in front of the shadow demon and was easily resolved.

The demon swung his hand back and knocked the interstellar knight's weapon away. The whole person flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.

"Knight!" The Messenger of Light exclaimed and looked at the Nebula Sage. The two of them chanted spells at the same time and cast a joint spell.

The dazzling light illuminated the entire passage. However, this seemingly powerful attack was like a drop in the ocean when it hit the shadow demon, and had little effect.

A feeling of despair began to spread. Is this really the end of my life today?

At this moment, a green light flashed, accompanied by a breeze, and the originally thick dark atmosphere dissipated instantly. Everyone felt their bodies lighten and regained their ability to move.

A figure appeared in front of everyone, with long green hair fluttering in the wind and an agile figure like an elf - it was the wind elf.

She landed lightly in front of everyone with a smile on her face: "It seems that you need a little help."

Before everyone could react, the Wind Elf turned to look at the Shadow Demon, with a fierce look in his eyes: "You guy, you're really haunting me..."

Before the Wind Elf finished his words, his body had transformed into a green light and began to spin around the Shadow Demon at high speed.

A wind blade condensed in her slender hands, and every attack landed precisely on the demon's weak spot.

The devil roared angrily, but he had no way to deal with the lightning-fast elf and could only passively take the beating.

"Good opportunity! Brothers, grab your weapons!" Zhang Cheng gave an order, and everyone was energized. They used all their strength to launch a fierce attack on the shadow demon.

The Nebula Sage cast powerful spells, the Lightbringer continuously released healing and buff magic, and the Star Knight was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, waving the weapons he had picked up again and attacking crazily.

"Take my 'Lightning Five Whips'!" the interstellar knight shouted, and used a dazzling set of stick techniques, which actually left several scars on the demon.

"666, this operation of the old man is great!" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

The Shadow Demon was beaten back step by step by the joint attack of the Wind Elf and everyone, and the black energy on his body gradually dissipated.

"Roar——" It let out a last unwilling roar, and its huge body collapsed, eventually turning into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing without a trace.

"Done!" The interstellar knight waved his weapon excitedly, looking invincible.

The wind elf landed lightly in front of everyone, but there was no joy on his face. Instead, his brows were furrowed and his expression was solemn.

"Although we have solved the Shadow Demon, this is just the beginning..." She paused and looked deep into the depths of the maze, "More dangerous things are still waiting for us..."

Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, and an inexplicable feeling of tension surged in their hearts.

The wind elf led them forward, through a long and narrow passage, and came to an open area.

Suddenly, the Wind Elf stopped and slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with awe... and a hint of barely perceptible fear.

Zhang Cheng followed her gaze and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"This..." He only said one word and couldn't say anything else.
