Chapter 531 Successfully Abducting the Mermaid Girl
"What exactly is his power over the earth—?"
Rhea, who had a brief encounter with Roy, kept thinking about him. Why did he possess the power to control the dungeon? His status was even above hers. Did the gods know about this?
If the gods knew, or if Roy was actually their creation, it would obviously not be a good thing; otherwise, the situation would be somewhat delicate.
Rhea leaned towards the first scenario. Just how much longer would those hateful gods try to fool them? She wanted nothing more than to rush up and wreak havoc.
But the second judgment is more rational!
Because the gods cannot obtain the power of the dungeon, as long as they dare to use their divine power, it will trigger the underlying code, and the black monster will be born immediately.
"What are you thinking?" Rhea gently stroked the earth, carefully sensing the pulse deep within the earth's core, using her subordinate powers to perceive and try to unravel the confusion in her heart.
Before this, she hadn't anticipated this situation at all. After meeting Roy, Rachel became completely "enlightened," starting to have all sorts of wild and unfounded speculations.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
A massive shadow loomed from afar, causing the vast earth to tremble. It was another male colossus, hundreds of meters tall, its body draped in clothing made of wild animal hides, exuding a wild aura.
Wherever he went, the humidity rose sharply, the air became thick and condensed into water droplets.
It was Oceanus, who was in charge of the "power of water".
Oceanus walked step by step until he reached Rhea. "How did she react today?"
Rhea looked up and gently shook her head.
Oceanus showed an expression of expectation, slightly disappointed, but he quickly recovered. For an immortal god, three thousand years was still too short, almost the time it takes to take a nap.
So their battle is not over yet!
Until the destruction of all the gods in the heavens, this was the promise the twelve Titans made to "her".
"Didn't you send a spiritual entity to the upper levels? What did you gain?" Oceanus asked.
Rhea glanced at it. "Go see for yourself!"
"It won't kill you to say something, what's the big deal? Otherwise, in a place like this, besides me, could you find another person to chat with?" Oceanus laughed. Water is gentle and nourishing, and he could send his spiritual body to the upper levels, but he disdained to do such a thing. A real man must confront things head-on.
Oceanus inquired about information about the surface from Rhea purely out of curiosity and the playful mentality unique to gods; he had no serious intentions whatsoever.
Upon hearing this, Rhea asked, "What is he doing?"
In this unknown territory, there are three and a half intelligent beings: besides her and Oceanus, there is Cronus, and—
Rhea refers to Cronus.
"Who knows, that guy is always so secretive, lost in the flow of time, who knows what he's doing."
Oceanus snorted coldly.
Rhea couldn't help but defend him, "Oshennas, don't push him too hard. He must have a mission to complete; it's destiny!"
"Fate—don't make me laugh! If he really had the power to change fate, then why did 'she' end up with such a tragic fate!" Oceanus said angrily.
Rhea was speechless. That incident was a pain that would forever remain in the hearts of all of them. However, Kronos watched from the sidelines the whole time and did not intervene.
This led to the other Titans having some reservations about Cronus, rather than just her.
But they cannot deny the other side's strength!
Rhea paused for a moment, then decided to change the subject, "The adventurers nurtured by the gods will soon break the deep seals and enter our realm!"
"Hmph, you're asking for death!"
Oceanus sneered. If the other party dared to take a step forward, he would kill them all!
At that moment, Oceanus noticed a subtle change in Rhea's expression and casually asked, "What's wrong?"
Rhea's mind flashed with Roy's image, and she said, "The children nurtured by the gods—the adventurers on the surface—are not as weak as you think."
Upon hearing this, Oceanus glanced at Rhea with surprise. He keenly sensed a hint of confusion in her eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Rhea, what did your spirit see on the surface of the earth—?"
Before he could finish speaking, Oceanus changed his mind, "Never mind, the power of the gods is invincible!"
Oceanus's eyes were cold and confident. As a god, he was capable of crushing all enemies in the world, including heroes who had obtained the power of the Great Immortal.
Seeing Oceanus's confidence, Rhea secretly shook her head, not revealing Roy's name. She had also obtained a lot of information from contacting Roy.
God-killer!
Without this skill, Roy's damage to the spirit would be greatly reduced, and it would take a lot of effort to deal with her spirit.
The combination of Earth Power and Godslayer led Rhea to suspect that Roy was on their side.
2000 attribute points, Dungeon Heart (fragment), Holy Mother's Prayer (quasi-god level)!
Roy was pleasantly surprised to see the rewards dropped by Rhea's spirit body. Although they were not as good as the Black Dragon's, they were still quite generous. More importantly, it was very easy and didn't take much effort.
The container is too weak!
Hyacinthus's body could not withstand the power of the Earth Mother Rhea, and Roy seized the opportunity to kill him instantly; otherwise, this battle would have been much more difficult.
Roy used his attribute points with great care. The higher the level, the more difficult it was to obtain attributes. At LV.9, acquiring ability values was extremely difficult. If it weren't for the cheat of dungeons, he felt that his greatest achievement in his life might stop here.
The next moment, the ability panel popped up.
Name: Roy Level: 9
Strength: 68 → 468 (E)
-
Endurance: 20→420 (E)
Dexterity: 92→492 (E)
Agility: 76 → 476 (E)
Magic Power: 102 → 502 (D)
By distributing his 2,000 attribute points evenly across five ability values, Roy now places great emphasis on balance, transforming himself into a well-rounded warrior.
Previously, maximizing the points in a certain attribute was mostly out of necessity, a temporary way to enhance strength.
There's no rush at the moment.
Each ability is not separate; only through balanced development can comprehensive strength reach its peak.
After completing the skill point allocation, Roy clenched his fist, a slight sense of unfamiliarity washing over him. As expected of a LV.9, the situation he encountered was completely different from his previous levels.
There are too few LV.9 adventurers.
Roy and Alfia couldn't find any precedents to follow, so they went from feeling their way in the dark to becoming pioneers themselves.
The founder, the pioneer.
After completing the skill point allocation, Roy's gaze fell on another reward: the Dungeon Heart (Fragment) that enhances the power of the earth. He used it without hesitation.
[The Heart of the Dungeon has been used. Congratulations on upgrading your Earth Power to level 65 (Glacier Domain)!]
Before Roy could even see the information on the panel, a wave of intense dizziness rushed to his head.
hum!
A vast, despair-inducing torrent of information was brutally shoved into Roy's mind.
The clumsy battle shouts of novice adventurers on the first level, the damp, fishy smell of the goblin's lair, the feel of moss on the rock walls —
The tenth floor: the eerie blue glow of fluorescent mushrooms, the rustling of killer ants crawling, the icy flow of the underground river—the second thousand fiveth floor: the roaring water, the sharp sound of scales scraping against the rocks—the thirty-seventh floor: the sky-covering walls, the murderous intent of countless monsters lurking in the shadows, the cold stone patterns of the ancient royal hall—
The heavy footsteps of the colossal cannon dragon on the fifty-eighth floor shook the earth, and its fiery breath shattered everything in its path.
Until the sixty-fifth floor, the scene was almost hellish—a chill that froze one's soul!
Topography! Environment! Atmosphere! Sound! Temperature!
Millions of monsters—their locations, states, habits, even their fleeting killing intent! Thousands upon thousands of adventurers—their levels, locations, battles, cries for help, even their desperate near-death experiences!
The direction of every rock crevice!
Every drop of dark water falls!
Every disturbance of magical power!
Encompassing sixty-five layers of information, crisscrossing like a complex cosmic star map, a vast amount of multi-dimensional, real-time changing intelligence, it surged into the depths of Roy's brain like a burst dam of a galaxy. "Ugh—"
Roy's usually steady and unwavering body swayed slightly uncontrollably, his brows furrowed, and cold sweat instantly beaded on his forehead.
pressure!
Unprecedented mental stress!
It wasn't a physical burden, but rather the extreme pain of mental and willpower being overloaded in an instant, as if the entire head was being burst by infinitely expanding information, with countless images, sounds, and data flashing in the mind.
"call!"
Roy was panting heavily. The eerie feeling of falling into an abyss did not appear, but the burden and pain he experienced using the Heart of the Dungeon were unprecedented. Suddenly receiving a large amount of information, his brain felt like it couldn't process it and was about to "crash" on the spot.
Of course, that was just an illusion.
When he switched to LV.8, Roy estimated that it would be very difficult for him to get through this stage.
But he is now LV.9, and his mental strength has increased more than tenfold. He can't process that much information all at once, but it will definitely not break him down.
Dungeon, cleared to the 65th floor!
Roy's goal, however, is to reach into the unknown!
With the appearance of the spiritual form of the Earth Mother Rhea, just as Royman said, their time is running out. The beings from the unknown realm may rush out, which will turn into a dangerous encounter.
The underground city is no longer absolutely safe.
Roy lowered his head, his gaze gently falling on the dark blue figure in his arms, and softly asked, "Marily, would you like to live with me on the surface?"
Mary tilted her head slightly, her pure aquamarine eyes sparkling with curiosity and anticipation. She asked innocently, her voice clear, "The surface? Is that where Roy has always lived?"
"Um."
Roy's lips curled slightly, and he gave a low, affirmative reply. A warm smile quietly spread across his deep eyes. "There are important people there: Astraea, Ryu, Tione—and of course, you too, so I don't want you to be in danger."
Mary's eyes shone with dazzling joy. She hugged Roy tighter, her soft cheek pressed against his firm chest, and her voice was clear and melodious, "I want to go! Mary loves Roy, and I want to go with Roy! Wherever Roy goes, Mary wants to go!"
Looking at the mermaid in his arms, so devoted, Roy felt a warmth in his heart and added, "And Reed, Rey, and the others are there too."
"real?"
Mary's eyes widened instantly, as if the brightest star in the night sky had suddenly lit up.
Hearing that her long-lost heretic companions were also in that "surface" world filled her with immense joy, and she couldn't help but let out a joyful cheer, "That's wonderful!"
Mary was so happy she almost jumped up in Roy's arms, hugging his neck even tighter, like a spoiled kitten, rubbing her cool, soft face against Roy's warm chest affectionately, so cute it melted anyone's heart.
Transfer to a higher position!
Roy used spatial magic to avoid being seen and heard, and silently brought Mary back to the surface, then transferred her to the Star Garden.
The heretics met and excitedly made a ruckus.
Astrea had met Mary once before and was very fond of the latter's pure, innocent, kind, and lovely personality. She asked Roy several times to see her again to thank her for saving him. Today, her wish was finally granted, and she gently embraced the mermaid girl.
Mary happily hugged Astraea, feeling her mother's presence in her.
As a mermaid, Mary lives in the swimming pool on the basement floor of the Star Garden, where she plays and frolics with the girls, having a wonderful time. The scene is extremely beautiful.
Roy then went to the guild headquarters to submit the information about his encounter with the spiritual entities of Hycintos and Rhea, so that the major powers could make preparations.
Upon hearing that the Titans' spirits had manifested, Guild Master Royman clutched his chest in pain, cursing those Titans hundreds or thousands of times in his mind. They were just causing him trouble; wouldn't it have been better if they had stayed quietly in the dungeon?
The so-called spiritual body is a similar product to Artemis's original thought body.
But the Titans seem to be even more powerful.
Without Roy having to visit each household individually, the guild received his information and immediately transferred it to the various clans.
Normally, Royman would definitely use this information to blackmail the various clans, but the enemy has already started blocking the gates, so doing that would be suicide.
"The truth has been uncovered. The cause of this turmoil was Hyacinthus, but it was actually the spiritual entity of the Titan Rhea that was manipulating everything behind the scenes—as expected of Roy, he found out the culprit so quickly," Finn said.
In less than half a day, only Roy possessed such terrifying efficiency.
Upon receiving the guild's copy of the intelligence, everyone's expressions turned grim. The enemy was a true god, not the same as those incompetent beings on the surface who couldn't use divine power.
The Titan's stance was simple: "I didn't sign this agreement, so it's just a piece of paper!"
Even with their mere power, gods can unleash bloodshed and nearly destroy the world on several occasions. No one knows how terrifying gods with divine power are, nor can anyone predict their danger.
There was a deep sense of urgency in everyone's hearts.
The few who felt at ease were the girls of the Astrea Familia. With Roy, their pillar of support, back, they were no longer lost.
Fight for Roy! Loyalty!
