Rumble! Rumble!!
Dark clouds rolled across the sky.
The ferocious lightning snakes writhed wildly within, tearing apart the sky and emitting deafening roars!
In mid-air, the giant magic circle covering the entire Orario shone even brighter, and everyone could feel its destructive aura.
The immense pressure, like an invisible giant hand, gripped everyone's throat.
The entire city felt a chill run down their spines, and their very souls trembled uncontrollably under this absolute pressure.
Is the Six Rings of the Immortal Essence about to be completed?!
Despair, like the deepest sea, instantly engulfed every corner of Orario!
Heart-wrenching wails, desperate cries, and desperate prayers—all sorts of sounds intertwined.
Whether powerful adventurers or ordinary citizens, everyone's face was deathly pale. They gazed up at the impending end, their eyes filled with helplessness and fear.
Even the major struggles instigated by the dark factions have never left people feeling so desperate and helpless.
The guild urgently dispatched Hephaestus Spring Clan and Ganesha Spring Clan—using all means to enter the dungeon and search for traces of the spellcasting fairy.
The result was nothing!
According to their speculation, the immortal essence who can cast the "Six Rings of Immortal Essence" must be at least below the 52nd level, a realm that only "hero candidates" can reach!
They don't even have the right to stop it!
What a despairing answer! The only hope lies in the three great clans still in the dungeon.
However, as time passed, the "Six Immortal Rings" in the sky did not dissipate, but instead became more solid, to the point that they were visible to the naked eye.
The feelings of many gods are no different from those of adventurers and ordinary people. In the heavens, they can disregard death and even commit suicide for amusement.
But now that they've experienced the wonders of the lower realm, how could they possibly bear to die again?
To put it bluntly—
They haven't had enough fun yet, how can they die!
"Damn it, who did this? Don't let me find out, or I'll make them pay!"
"Stop talking nonsense. What can you even do in the mortal realm?"
"Don't abandon me, children!"
The gods wailed incessantly. Unable to use their divine power, they were merely ordinary people, their escape speed far inferior to that of the adventurers. They begged and pleaded, utterly lacking any divine dignity, even asking their own children to take them away.
Just as the destructive power in mid-air reached its peak, everyone's heart tightened.
Boom!
In that instant, the six-pointed star magic circle that was about to be completed in mid-air made a loud noise, and the light flowing in one corner flickered very unstablely.
Gradually, that corner dimmed.
The terrifying aura that enveloped the entire city and almost crushed one's soul seemed to have been severed in half. The tingling sensation on the scalp subsided slightly; although it didn't completely disappear, it was enough to bring a sense of relief.
Dead!
The entire bustling, despairing city fell into an extreme, unbelievable, deathly silence.
-
"It seems one of the fairy spirits has been killed."
Hermes wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. That was close! It was so close! Orario was probably only ten seconds away from being destroyed by the beam of light from the Fairy Ring 6.
Standing beside her, Asifi finally felt relieved. Although the shadow of destruction still loomed overhead, she finally saw a glimmer of hope.
Those three major clans are still working hard!
Aside from Roy, probably no one could have predicted that it would be Lily and Haruhime's group that would be the first to kill the tainted fairy clone.
However, it wasn't as smooth as they had imagined. For the two of them, the biggest difficulty wasn't killing the tainted fairy clone, but rather how to reach their target location.
Lily protects Haruhime and heads to the west side of the floor.
Countless man-eating plants and monsters from the glacial region blocked their way, making progress extremely difficult.
"This is really troublesome. I don't know if Lily's strength is enough to protect Lady Haruhime." A hint of distress appeared on Lily's face, but her movements were very swift and decisive. Holding two short swords, her petite and exquisite body was incredibly agile as she quickly slashed at the monsters in front of her.
-
She is a Level 5, a renowned Level 1 adventurer on the surface, but here, Level 5 monsters, even enhanced ones, are everywhere.
Lily is a skilled assassin who excels in human combat and is formidable. However, she often feels helpless when facing tough monsters.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Lily moved with the grace of a dragon, protecting Chunji while slaying the attacking monsters. Based on the information provided by Eina, her short sword precisely pierced the magic stones inside the monsters' bodies, causing one monster after another to explode.
What bothered her were the man-eating flower monsters called "Violas," whose stats ranged from LV.3 to LV.5, a wide range. This was because they fed on magic stones to increase their strength; the more they ate, the higher their stats became, and vice versa.
Unfortunately, they all look the same, with LV.3 and LV.5 mixed together, making it impossible to guard against them.
"—Give the gods their golden light, give the hammer back to the earth, bestow blessings! Grow bigger, treasure hammer!" After Haruhime finished chanting, golden light fell on Lily.
"Thank you, Lady Haruhime!"
Lily could feel her overall stats skyrocketing, reaching LV.6, making it much easier to deal with monsters.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Chunji wasn't just accepting protection unilaterally. Carrying Lily's large bag, she held the Seven Sounds of Immortal Continent in one hand and took out the magic sword that Roy had forged for her in the other, sweeping away the surrounding monsters with flames, ice, and lightning.
The two slowly advanced while killing monsters. They came into contact with the tainted fairy essence later than other teams, but finished faster than everyone else.
Finally, the two arrived before the filthy fairy.
It was a towering pillar made of green flesh, connecting the ice field to the ceiling. The upper part was the body of a female fairy spirit, chanting the incantation of "Six Rings of Fairy Spirits" in a loud voice. The lower part consisted of three twisted and ferocious female faces.
"Charge! Thunder Spear! I am the Thunder Spirit, the embodiment of thunder! The Queen of Thunder!"
Upon seeing Lily and Haruhime arrive, the lower half of her face erupted in a maniacal laugh, automatically responding with a high-speed chant that sounded like background noise.
"Thunder Ray!"
As the final sound faded, a golden magic circle appeared near her lips, and boundless magic power transformed into surging golden lightning that crashed down, covering the sky and the earth.
It looked like they were about to drown Lily and Haruhime.
Sevenfold Radiance!
Chun Ji raised the Seven Sounds of Immortal Continent high, activating a special effect. Seven magical shields appeared in front of her, blocking the lightning strikes from the filthy immortal spirits.
The two forces clashed fiercely, and with a "crack" sound, the magic shield shattered one by one.
The magic shield of this equipment has a maximum capacity of blocking attacks up to level 6. Since the magic power of the Filthy Fairy reaches level 7, it is destined not to be able to withstand the attack for long.
But Chun Ji only needs a short period of time.
The incantation has been stored in the "Seven Sounds of Immortal Continent," and she only needs to recite the last part.
"Let us fall in love, let us long for each other, and with small wishes, let us stay together until the very end!"
Third Magic: Fairy Fox Transformation!
Chun Ji's body radiated a dazzling light, and deep within the radiant light, her figure gradually transformed into a colossal creature.
boom!
The seven magical shields in front could no longer hold, cracked and shattered, and the lightning struck the deepest part of the light, causing an instant explosion.
"Lady Haruhime!" Lily exclaimed anxiously. If the magic was interrupted, it would be a near-death experience!
"It's alright, Lady Lily."
At that moment, a gentle voice rang out.
This is what Lord Roy meant by making good use of the transformation invincibility mechanism. Just kidding. Haruhime smiled and thought, how could a mere LV.7 magic lightning strike possibly hurt her when she uses the third magic?
As the dust settled, an enormous nine-tailed celestial fox stood on the earth, its soft, platinum-gold fur gleaming with a holy and noble radiance, its nine enormous tails unfurling and dancing in the raging wind.
Gone was the slightest trace of its usual gentleness; in its place was an aura of power, majesty, and vastness!
"Is this Lady Haruhime's third magic?" Lily's mouth gaped slightly; the oppressive aura was terrifying.
This colossal creature is actually LV.9!
The Heavenly Fox looked at the filthy fairy spirit in front of it with an indifferent and domineering air, as if looking down on an ant!
hum!
The celestial fox opened its blood-red maw, and indescribable, terrifying magical power gathered wildly within its deep mouth, solidifying to the point that it could be clearly seen with the naked eye.
The filthy fairies stopped chanting and singing, staring in disbelief at the celestial fox before them.
The immense magical power formed a blazing white sphere of light emanating an aura of destruction within the celestial fox's mouth. The space around the sphere could not withstand it and began to crack!
"roar!"
A fox's howl that shook the heavens and the earth reverberated in all directions!
The sphere of destructive light was spat out, transforming into a blazing white torrent that pierced through the universe, instantly traversing vast distances and heading straight for the filthy immortal essence!
"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"
The filthy fairy spirit let out a terrified scream!
Faced with this devastating attack, the female fairy and the three giant faces simultaneously chanted incantations, using defensive magic to construct one after another thick, indestructible, earthen-yellow light shield in front of them.
scoff!
The anticipated cataclysmic collision did not occur.
The destructive, blazing white torrent, without the slightest hesitation, easily pierced through more than a dozen earthen-yellow light shields, crushing them with absolute power.
There is nothing left to stop us!
The blazing white torrent mercilessly devoured the enormous, twisted body of the filthy fairy!
boom!!
A mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky, and a deafening roar resounded throughout the entire building, causing the ground to shake violently.
Under the intense bombardment, the body of the filthy fairy was like ice and snow thrown into the scorching sun, instantly annihilated and completely reduced to ashes, leaving not even a trace or a wisp of dust behind!
These filthy fairy clones were all cultivated by "fairy embryos" parasitizing the bodies of some kind of monster. The filthy fairy parasitized a monster with amazing defense. With the addition of defensive magic, killing her was no less difficult than defeating a level 8 monster, yet she was still instantly killed by Chun Ji's cannon fire.
Lily stared blankly at the scene, completely stunned. Only the destructive white light and the vanished, filthy fairy figure kept replaying in her mind.
The filthy immortal spirit clone has been successfully defeated!
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
Under Lily's gaze, the celestial fox's body slowly shrank, and the fox-girl returned to her original form, kneeling on the ground, panting heavily, and covered in sweat.
Her beautiful face showed an indescribable weariness, her long eyelashes trembled incessantly, and her eyelids were about to close uncontrollably.
An intense drowsiness surged forth like a giant wave.
This is a sign of mental exhaustion!
It's not easy for a level 4 to unleash the magical power of a level 9. The level enhancement that could have been given to nine people is now all stacked on her. With just one strike, her physical and mental strength will be completely drained.
"That's amazing, Lady Haruhime!" Lily exclaimed excitedly, her body trembling and her words incoherent.
"Lady Lily, you flatter me."
Chunji said modestly that only now could she truly feel the significance of defeating the LV.9 Empress in the final battle in the Underworld.
She used a magical link, a triple attack, expending all her physical and mental strength to unleash a strike, but it was merely a basic attack from the empress.
To better help her beloved, she had to work even harder. The image of that boy flashed through Chunji's mind, and a shy blush rose uncontrollably on her pretty face, like a ripe peach.
"Lady Chunji, let's replenish our energy first." Lily took out a bottle of legendary Heavenly Elixir.
"Um!"
Chunji accepted the celestial elixir, and then went to help others defeat the filthy fairy spirit.
"The Holy Staff of Exorcism unleashes lightning, sweeping away my enemies!"
The Staff of Dionysus, the Supreme God!
Just then, a cold voice rang out, and fierce silver lightning flashed across the ice, radiating an extremely dangerous aura.
The two girls' expressions immediately changed.
"Lady Haruhime, watch out!" Compared to Haruhime, who was exhausted of her mental energy, Lily reacted faster, her body nimble, and she forcefully twisted and pushed Haruhime away with both hands.
He pushed his opponent seven or eight meters away, but he couldn't dodge and was struck in the back by the silver lightning.
thump!
Chunji fell to the ground, her fire-element protective cloth fell off, and the chill of the ice surface quickly took away her body heat, but it also jolted her brain awake, forcibly restoring a sliver of her spirit.
Caught off guard, the Heavenly Elixir slipped from his grasp and fell into a crack on the smooth ice surface.
Chunji had no time to pay attention to her body temperature or the celestial elixir. Her emerald green eyes quickly turned to Lily, and crystal-clear tears welled up in her eyes.
Having withstood the LV.7 lightning strike magic, Lily's entire body was charred black, and wisps of blue smoke rose from her body.
The remaining silver lightning seemed to transform into countless electric snakes, tearing at Lily's body. She bit her tongue tightly, using the pain to keep herself from losing consciousness.
"Who is it?"
Lily and Haruhime looked angrily in the direction of the lightning strike.
A figure draped in a dark black cloak emerged from the depths of the Ice Crystal Forest. His steps appeared slow, yet he swiftly traversed a distance of several hundred meters.
"Philwis Sharia!" Lily gritted her teeth, her amber eyes flashing with murderous intent.
Sure enough, when the man lifted his hood, revealing jet-black hair, pointed and slender ears, and blood-red eyes, it was indeed the "Annunciation Spirit".
The timing was perfect!
In order to subdue the tainted fairy spirit's clone, the three clans chose to split up their forces. The battles on all sides were not yet over, and no one could provide support here. Haruhime was in extremely poor condition.
"A magic that can only be used to upgrade nine people, and a LV.4 spell that can instantly kill a LV.7 tainted fairy, it's far too dangerous for you to live!" Phil Weiss gripped her rapier and looked coldly at Chun Ji.
After many events, the fox-girl's upgrade magic had long been known to everyone, but the Astrea Familia was too powerful, and no force dared to seize it, at least not on the surface.
"As long as Lily is here, I won't let you hurt Lady Haruhime." Lily forced herself to stay upright.
Bang!
Phil Weiss appeared in a flash, her LV.7 speed leaving Lily completely unable to react. She was kicked away by her opponent, her petite body sliding on the ice and crashing into an ice rock.
Chunji was even less capable of resisting. As the sharp sword light fell, multiple sword wounds appeared on her body.
Even a tiger (or fox) fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs! If she were in good condition and used her third magic, she wouldn't necessarily crush her opponent, but she would at least be in an invincible position!
"Hahahahaha!"
"Despair, be terrified, can you understand how I felt back then?!" Phil Weiss sneered.
On this icy plain, Chun Ji and Lily were toyed with by Phil Weiss, while the voices of others condemning the filthy fairies served as background music.
Suddenly, perhaps remembering something, Phil Weiss picked up the dying Chunji and Lily, and changed the subject, "You have a chance to live."
Haruhime and Lily struggled to open their eyes.
"Join us and gain the power of monsters, just like me!" Phil Weiss tore open her clothes, revealing the magic stone embedded in her chest.
"I see, so this is what you wanted to do." A look of realization flashed across Lily's cloudy, tired eyes, and she slightly parted her chapped lips.
Based on Phil Weiss's words and the information provided by Roy, Lily, as the resourceful vice commander, had already seen through the other party's thoughts.
Join us!
Phil Weiss was driven to madness and obsession.
As a pure blind spirit, she was implanted with a magic stone and turned into this filthy monster that was neither human nor ghost. Her heart was filled with pain, and she even thought about committing suicide.
It was Lord Dionysus who saved her!
If everyone becomes like her, a monster, then she won't be considered an outcast!
"Hahahahaha!"
Lily's delicate body trembled, and she let out a laugh. What a weak thought, filthy? She had never seen her parents since she was a child, and lived among a bunch of scum and bastards, scavenging garbage every day to survive!
In comparison, this blind spirit is so fortunate!
She was so beautiful, grew up in a beautiful forest, and after becoming a monster, she gained the powerful ability to devour magic stones. In just a few years, she gained the power of a LV.7, becoming one of the world's top experts. Is this what you call suffering?
What's so great about your obsession with cleanliness? If Lily didn't have someone she loved, she would have tried to become a monster without hesitation and destroy this damned world!
Lily stared coldly at Philweis, "My relationship with Lady Haruhime wouldn't turn us into such monsters!"
"Then you can all die!"
Having received a reply, Phil Weiss regained her composure, tossed the two incapacitated individuals to the ground, and slowly raised her rapier as if to deliver a judgment.
"We won't die!"
Lily murmured softly, "You don't know yet, do you? The person Lily likes will always appear beside her whenever she calls!"
Chunji also raised her small face, showing no fear.
"Shut up!"
As if sensing the happiness in the two girls' hearts, Phil Weiss was consumed by jealousy and hysterically swung her sword, intending to end their lives.
Suddenly, the cold glint of the sword's blade stopped in the half-box.
Of course, it wasn't that Phil Weiss was showing mercy, but rather that a large hand appeared out of the box, tightly gripping the other's slender arm, causing the thin sword to fall another inch. The force was so great that the sound of bones cracking could be faintly heard.
"Impossible!" Phil Weiss noticed the familiar figure out of the corner of her eye and couldn't believe it.
"So you didn't know about Lord Roy's magic, what a pity." Lily smiled smugly.
Underworld Soul Chasing + Upper Transfer!
This is why Roy dared to split up his forces; he could appear beside the girls whenever he wanted.
"My girl has received a lot of care from you!" Roy glanced at the injuries on Chunji and Lily, his face darkening slightly, his tone as cold as a gust of wind.
call out!
Phil Weiss let go, and the rapier fell to the ground. Her other hand moved with lightning speed, catching the rapier and instantly transforming into a streak of silver light that could steal one's soul.
The sharp sword light, like a venomous snake's tongue, pierced Roy's throat with a chilling aura!
However, Roy reacted even faster!
His head tilted to the side and back at a subtle, almost imperceptible angle, the tip of the sword grazing his skin and catching a strand of severed hair.
"Um?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Roy's face.
The opponent's speed, strength, and timing are far superior to what they had done in the last time they fought. Such a leap in such a short period of time!
As expected of a weirdo who can enhance his abilities by devouring magic stones, if there are no side effects, this kind of enhancement method is practically cheating in the dungeon!
But so what?
Roy's lips curled into a powerful smile of confidence, and he was also burning with suppressed rage at the fact that the other party had dared to lay a hand on Lily and Haruhime.
"Transfer to a higher position!"
There was no need to hide the magic anymore; ripples spread out from the box, and Roy's figure vanished into nothingness.
In the next instant, Roy appeared silently behind Phil Weiss like a ghost seeking death, his anger transforming into explosive power in his legs.
boom!
A powerful leg kick, swift as lightning, struck Phil Weiss's waist and ribs with a dull, heart-pounding thud!
Phil Weiss's face contorted in shock, her pupils dilating violently. What had happened? So fast! She didn't even have time to defend herself before an irresistible force surged into her body, sending her flying like a rocket, tracing a straight line through the box!
This kick is just the beginning!
Roy's gaze was cold and sharp, showing no mercy as the magic within the box was activated once more.
The figure disappeared, and when it reappeared, it delivered another powerful knee strike to Phil Weiss's back just as she was about to hit the ground!
Philweis felt a strong tremor in her internal organs.
boom! boom! boom!
Another teleport! A vicious elbow strike landed on the opponent's abdomen. Roy used his teleportation ability to the extreme, transforming into an elusive afterimage, constantly flashing and disappearing around Phil Weiss. Each appearance was accompanied by a heavy blow that could shatter stone, which landed heavily on her body!
The dull thuds, like cruel drumbeats, echoed relentlessly through the chamber!
Phil Weiss was kicked around like a ball, subjected to the furious Roy's mad ravaging.
He was mercilessly whipped from all angles, completely losing control of his body. He couldn't even maintain the most basic defensive stance, let alone fight back. He could only passively endure this torrent of torture!
"Impossible, I'm level 7!"
Phil Weiss found it hard to accept this result. During this time, she had undergone further training in the dungeon, consuming countless magic stones, and her abilities had grown rapidly. However, when facing Roy, she fared even worse than before!
Both of them are clearly LV.7!
"LV.7, is that strong?" Roy sneered, grabbing Phil Weiss's neck with both hands and lifting her up. There is a difference even between LV.7!
Both sides have similar basic abilities, which is their minimum requirement. However, in terms of potential, Roy's development ability, skills, and magic are far superior, far surpassing Phil Weiss's.
A single magical chamber is a devastating blow!
After tormenting the opponent for seven or eight spider bells, Roy discovered that this Philwiss was just a spider in human form, and immediately lost interest.
"Damn it!" Phil Weiss glared at Roy.
Click!
Roy showed no mercy, and with a sharp crack, he crushed the neck bones of the harbinger of death, twisting its head off.
Philweis's head and body vanished.
"I'll twist off your body and Dionysus's head sooner or later!" Roy sneered.
After doing all this, Roy's ruthlessness and murderous intent faded, and he looked at the two girls with a gentle, bewildered expression.
"Lord Roy!"
Two calls, filled with boundless excitement, joy, and deep affection, rang out almost simultaneously!
Lily and Haruhime, one on each side, rushed headlong into that warm and firm embrace, burying their little heads deep into Roy's chest, greedily inhaling that familiar and comforting scent.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Through their clothes, one could hear the steady, powerful heartbeat, as firm as a war drum. Each beat seemed to strike the strings of their anxious hearts, dispelling the lingering gloom and bringing an indescribable peace.
Two girls of different races wrapped their slender arms tightly around Roy's waist, as if trying to merge their whole being into the only safe haven in the world.
