Chapter 368 The Great Terror Reaching the Surface
Carnivorous plants covering all sixty floors!
Six filthy immortal spirit clones!
Eighteen LV.7 super turrets are about to unleash the most powerful destructive magic, "Fairy Spirit Six Rings"!
Lurking deep within, an unknown seventh filthy immortal spirit avatar! This is the situation everyone is facing.
It's so desperate that you just want to return to the surface immediately, escape Orario, and get as far away as possible!
But they cannot escape!
Otherwise, the entire Orario would be bombarded by the light pillar summoned by the "Six Rings of Fairy Spirit" and reduced to ashes!
The evil god who was hiding behind the scenes and controlling everything did not give them a chance to escape. The filthy fairy clone used the "Six Rings of Fairy Essence". It was not as good as the real great fairy essence, but it could definitely destroy the city and the upper level.
They're running up now, and most likely they'll just reach the upper level when the beam of light comes crashing down on them.
Fortunately, or perhaps it was intentional on the part of that evil god, the Astrea Familia, Loki Familia, and Freya Familia—the three strongest Familias in Orario—gathered on this floor!
Let's work together to defeat the filthy immortals on the sixtieth floor!
Roy, Tione, Tiona, and Ota are all LV.7! Finn, Riveria, Grace, Daphne, Cassandra, Anya, Allen, Hedin, and Hegny are all LV.6! The remaining LV.5 and LV.4 adventurers are countless! Their combat strength is incredibly luxurious.
And Haruhime, that super overpowered fox!
"Then I will explain the next steps of the operation." As the person with the most intelligence, it was only natural for Roy to become the commander of this operation.
That being said, the other two major clans are unlikely to truly listen to him; at most, they will share the burden of the enemy.
Everyone does their own thing and doesn't interfere with each other!
Roy tossed two pebbles toward Freya's Familia. "Ota, Hedin, the two tainted fairy clones on the east side are yours. No objections?"
"Okay!" Ota said expressionlessly.
Allen, Hedin, Hegny, and the others showed no emotion whatsoever, exuding powerful confidence. They were nothing more than two filthy immortals!
Roy looked at Loki's Familia, "Finn, that tainted fairy in the north is yours."
"Only one?" Finn stared at Roy.
Six filthy immortal spirits are eyeing them covetously! The three major clans should each deal with two of the filthy immortal spirits.
Although the Loki Familia does not have any Level 7 adventurers, they have defeated the Level 7 floor master Balor and the Level 7 tainted fairy clone, demonstrating considerable combat strength.
Roy said, "You just defeated one Filthy Fairy. In your current state, it's too much of a strain to deal with two Filthy Fairies. I can handle three Filthy Fairies, but there's one condition."
The Loki Familia watched Roy silently.
Roy said, "Lend us Fiora."
"Ais————"
Riveria and Grace frowned, not expecting Roy to make such a demand.
"Okay!" Finn agreed.
"Finn?"
Riveria and Grace looked surprised.
Finn nodded slightly to his two close friends. His thinking was simple: in the chaos to come, Ais would be safer staying with Roy!
The Loki Familia still has to deal with two corrupted fairies, but the difference is that one of them is being fought jointly by Ais and the Astrea Familia.
With the targets assigned, and the Sixth Ring of Immortal Essence completed at some unknown time, everyone hurried to move towards the fifty-first floor, with the target being the sixtieth floor!
Before they could even encounter those filthy immortal clones, they had to fight their way through nine floors of monsters, a huge challenge that tested both their physical and mental strength.
Finn approached Roy and whispered, "Roy, a red-haired weirdo has his eye on Ais. We fought her on the 37th floor before. She's level 6. She might show up again. Be careful."
Red-haired weirdo! Revis!
Roy immediately realized that, like Phil Weiss, she was a strange person who could devour magic stones and grow stronger.
"No wonder you lent Ais so readily," Roy remarked. So it turned out he wanted to use the power of the Astrea Familia to protect the little princess.
Otherwise, the Loki Familia would be under too much pressure dealing with two corrupted fairies and Rives at the same time!
On the thirty-seventh floor, they encountered the crippled floor master, "Udeos." It was likely that Loki's Familia, due to the incident with Revis, hadn't had time to defeat him before hastily moving into deeper floors.
Finn chuckled, "Hehe, don't worry, Ais's power won't disappoint you either."
"Hard to say!"
Roy curled his lip. That little princess was indeed a very sharp sword, but sharpness does not mean it is easy to use. It might become a double-edged sword and hurt herself.
"Give it back if you don't want it!" Rivera stared at Roy with her jewel-like eyes, like a mother desperately wanting her daughter back.
Roy promptly shut his mouth.
That little princess's sword is indeed not very good, but it also depends on the user's skill. Since Roy dared to lend it, he must be confident that he can use it well!
boom!
As the team entered the fifty-second floor, unsurprisingly, Valgon's cannon fire crossed the floor and locked onto the target, turning the ground red-hot and sending pillars of flame shooting into the sky.
Unlike before, the group didn't have time to waste on these floors and had to break through quickly.
"Lily, I'm handing over command to you. Jump down in ten minutes!" Roy said. At this moment, the importance of having a deputy commander becomes apparent.
"Yes, Lord Roy!" Lily nodded emphatically.
After casting defensive magic on his girls, Roy leaped into the crater created by the artillery fire, his body plummeting straight down.
Just as Roy volunteered to be a "fixed target," seven or eight Valgonosaurs shifted their target, flames billowing from the depths of their gaping maws, and artillery fire came from below, engulfing Roy, who was caught in mid-air with no way to dodge.
But Roy did not perish because of this.
With his LV.7 physique and the colorful light robe of the defensive magic Life Dream, the Valgon Dragon's bombardment was no different from taking a hot bath for Roy.
boom!!
Roy's figure passed through the raging column of fire from the cannonballs, spanning seven floors, and crashed heavily onto the ground of the fifty-eighth floor like a cannonball.
Valgon turned his cannons around and unleashed a torrent of fire at Roy, easily shattering the earth.
The dragon soaring through the sky swooped down, its fangs and claws gleaming coldly as it attacked Roy.
Burn the heavens!
Facing a dozen cannon shots and dozens of LV.5 wyverns, Roy remained unfazed, drew his elven holy sword, activated its special effect, and frantically absorbed the surrounding magic energy, the slender blade wreathed in venomous crimson flames.
It's not over yet!
Roy used the technique "Afterglow" to unleash the elven holy sword, a flame-colored slash refined to its extreme, like a ray of dawn tearing through the night.
*Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!*
The next moment, all the monsters that were slashed and swept past, the colossal Valgon dragons and the ferocious wyverns, were instantly torn apart from their bodies, starting from their abdomens.
Immediately afterwards, a series of muffled explosions rang out, and the bodies of those dragon-shaped monsters turned to ashes, with large amounts of magic stones and materials falling to the ground.
boom!
Not only did Roy choose this method of breakthrough, but a figure as large as a small mountain also crashed down heavily—it was that powerful pigman.
A plume of blue smoke rose from Ota's body. He didn't have Roy's defensive magic; he had simply used his body to withstand the bombardment, demonstrating extremely high durability.
Roy could tough it out, but there's no need.
Ota only resorted to physical force because he had no other choice; if Roy had a better option, he would have used defensive magic.
"drink!"
His battle-ready roar shook the very air as Ota's majestic body, unstoppable, crashed into the horde of dragons on his flank.
After being hit by several fiery shells, the pain ignited the beast-like ferocity within the pig-man, turning his eyes bloodshot.
The greatsword in Ota's hand, wider than a door panel, felt weightless to him. There were no fancy techniques, only pure, unrestrained power! He cleaved through one dragon-like monster after another, splitting their thick spines, hard skulls, and scales.
Countless monsters were crushed into flying bone fragments and minced meat! Blood and gore raged around Ota, but could not touch him in the slightest. Instead, it made him look like an invincible war god who had fought a bloody battle.
Even as he slaughtered the monsters on the 58th floor, Ota's gaze remained fixed on Roy, his burning fighting spirit undiminished.
Originally, only he and Leon had reached LV.7.
Roy rose to prominence unexpectedly, surpassing everyone else and rising to LV.7 at an extraordinary speed. Moreover, his fight to a draw with Leon at the port had already spread throughout Orario. As pure warriors, the Pigmen's desire to fight Roy reached its peak.
But at this moment, I had to suppress the throbbing in my heart.
After Roy and Ota cleared out the nearby Valgon Dragons, everyone jumped down and used the large hole blasted out by the cannon fire to quickly pass through the "Dragon Pot".
The monsters that were just born on the 59th floor were even less likely to stop this super coalition.
Soon, the team successfully entered the sixtieth floor.
When you see six enormous figures connecting the earth and the ceiling, with writhing green flesh and filthy, ethereal female bodies like parasites on the pillars.
Just like Roy and his group, the members of the Loki Familia and Freya Familia felt a chill run down their spines as an evil aura swept over them.
"Hahahahaha!!"
Seeing Roy and his group return, bringing with them the Loki Familia and Freya Familia, the sixtieth floor became unprecedentedly lively, with numerous filthy fairy clones emitting maniacal and eerie laughter that echoed against the ice walls.
It's enough to cause mental pollution!
Fortunately, everyone present was a high-level adventurer with the ability to develop "abnormal resistance," and their level was not low, which greatly reduced the mental impact.
When Ais appeared, the entire floor fell silent, and all the filthy fairy clones stared intently at the naturally naive blonde beauty.
Those ferocious eyes revealed intense joy, longing, greed, and desire.
"Arya!!"
Numerous filthy immortal spirit clones spoke in unison, their tentacles extending wildly towards this side, like people who had been thirsty for days in the depths of the desert suddenly seeing an oasis, becoming hysterical and reckless.
The target is Ais!
Seeing this, everyone looked surprised.
Finn, Riveria, and Grace's expressions darkened slightly, just as they had when they fought the tainted fairy clone on the fifty-ninth floor.
Only Roy remained silent. He knew the reason, of course: the blonde beauty's mother was none other than the ancient wind-elemental fairy, Arya. Ais was a hybrid of human and fairy, inheriting wind magic. In terms of bloodline, she was far superior to someone like Welf!
The corrupted fairy, now transformed into a monster, was consumed by the evil thought of devouring Ais, the second-generation fairy.
Roy said in a deep voice, "Kill them!"
Everyone composed themselves, ceasing their wandering thoughts, and headed towards their respective goals. Otta, Allen, Hedin,
Hegni, leading the Freya Familia members, charged toward the two tainted fairies on the east side.
Finn, Riveria, Grace, Bert, and other members of the Loki Familia rushed towards the filthy fairy on the north side.
The remaining three avatars of the corrupted fairy spirits will be handled by the Astrea Familia. Even if only one corrupted fairy spirit remains, the Six Rings of Fairy Spirits will not stop; therefore, all corrupted fairy spirits must be eliminated!
The Astrea Familia faces the greatest pressure, but they are also the strongest.
They were divided into four teams.
Tione, at level 7, along with Daphne and Cassandra, at levels 6, dealt with a tainted fairy clone.
Tiona, also at LV.7, Anya, who leads at LV.6, and Lefia, whose firepower reaches LV.5!
Lily and Haruhime, both at level 5, form a team.
Roy and Ais are the final team, tasked with finding the seventh tainted fairy hidden in the shadows.
In fact, both families understood that Astraea had more to deal with than just the three corrupted fairies.
Roy's goal also includes the mysterious Seventh One, which is why he needs to borrow Ais as a combatant.
The Astrea Familia, with the smallest number of members, has to deal with the most corrupt fairy clones.
However, the other two major families had almost no doubt that the Astrea Familia could accomplish such a difficult task. The only thing they believed in was that Roy would never disappoint in creating miracles.
The same goes for my own girls.
The only confusing thing was the third group, where Tione, Tiona, Daphne, Cassandra and others turned their attention to Lily and Haruhime.
Are you sure you're not sending a level 5 and a level 4 LV4 to deal with the filthy fairy to their deaths?
Tione said, "Captain, isn't this going too far? Little Lily and that lecherous fox."
Upon hearing the term "perverted fox," Chunji felt dizzy and a blush rose to her cheeks.
"snort!"
Tione snorted coldly. She had seen through her long ago. A slut who seduces the captain all day long. Although she was just as bad as Chun Ji, it didn’t stop her from despising the other.
Others were also puzzled by this.
Even if Chun Ji grants Lily a level upgrade, it will only be LV.6, which is not enough to deal with the filthy fairy.
"Don't worry, they might be the first to resolve this, and they might even come to your aid," Roy said with a smile. He was actually most at ease with Lily and Haruhime's group.
Lily was just that lecherous fox's bodyguard, escorting him to the designated location and taking care of him in one fell swoop!
Since Roy said so, the girls trusted him unconditionally and immediately began to act.
"Then it's just us left." Roy stretched and looked at Ais next to him. He hadn't expected the filthy fairy to react so strongly. He hoped that this blonde beauty could play her due role.
Ais stood quietly, like a forgotten glass doll. The cold light of the icy plain shone on her brilliant golden hair, reflecting a flowing glow that made her delicate features even more perfect.
She slightly raised her head, her golden eyes fixed intently on Roy.
Having gone through the previous battles, she was already used to the cries of those filthy fairy clones.
"Roy, what about us—"
Ais parted her lips slightly, her voice as cool and clear as ever, but slightly different from the others.
Ryu is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and can make people feel cared for.
Alphia possesses a cool demeanor mixed with a hint of power and domineering arrogance, leaving no room for doubt or resistance.
Ais, on the other hand, is purely "dull," with no expression on her face, a girl with no personality, and naturally naive.
Roy said, "We must find the seventh defiled immortal!"
While Roy and the others were busy dealing with the Filthy Fairy Group, chaos had already broken out on the surface.
Accompanied by the chanting of the six filthy fairy avatars in the dungeon, the intertwined demonic sounds seemed to come from the bottom of the abyss.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
-
In an instant, the weather changed dramatically, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring.
The once clear sky was now filled with thick, dark clouds that were rapidly gathering from all directions at a visible speed.
In less than ten minutes, the sky was completely covered, dark and gloomy, and not a single ray of sunlight could be seen. The oppressive atmosphere was like an invisible giant hand that had gripped the throat of the entire city!
Above Orario, deep within the rolling dark clouds, a massive magic circle slowly emerged!
It is not a physical entity, but rather a massive structure composed of translucent golden magical runes and lines, so large that it covers the entire Orario and the surrounding area.
The eerie, sky-covering phenomenon, like a harbinger of the apocalypse, drew countless adventurers and ordinary citizens in the city to look up, their expressions tinged with fear.
The giant school ship docked in the port city of Mellen was filled with gods, teachers, and students rushing to the deck.
Adventurers and staff at the guild headquarters.
Little Bell and the Seventh Squad, along with members of the Takemikazuchi Familia, had just left the dungeon.
Every single person on the streets and alleys.
No one could decipher the meaning of the magic circle in the sky, but the tremors and chills emanating from the depths of their souls, like venomous snakes, coiled around the hearts of every person who looked up, and a great unease and a premonition of danger weighed heavily on everyone's minds.
Only the expressions of the many gods changed drastically.
"The Six-Ringed Immortal Spirit?!"
"Isn't that a spell to summon pillars from the heavens? Who the hell is using it as a cannon?!"
"It's huge! Impossible! In the current lower realms, it would be difficult to gather enough high-grade immortal essence to cast such a massive Six Rings of Immortal Essence!"
The gods recognized the magic circle almost instantly, clutching their heads and wailing incessantly, their panic quickly spreading to the others.
"What is that thing? Explain yourself!" A burly man grabbed the male god by the collar and roared.
Similar scenes are unfolding across the city.
The adventurer's intuition, honed in the dungeons, was incredibly sharp. He instinctively sensed the danger of the "Six Rings of Immortal Essence," and his expression turned extremely grim.
The Garden of Stars.
Astraea's stunning figure stood by the window, her eyes gazing at the sky, her gentle smile slightly fading from her beautiful face.
Ryu, who was by her side, asked, "Lady Astraea, what exactly is that?"
Ryu, at level 7, felt the crisis more intensely than others, meaning that even she could not escape the disaster.
"Six Rings of Immortal Essence—" Astraea whispered, explaining the origin of this spell to Ryu.
Listening to the goddess's story, Ryu, Alisha, Kaguya, and the others had extremely gloomy expressions.
Finally, Astrea concluded, "The scale of that magic circle was large enough to cover the entire Orario, and it was created by at least six high-level fairies. When children of this level cast magic, the fluctuations of magic energy could be felt within tens of kilometers. Since there are no traces on the surface, then only—"
"Dungeon!"
She didn't even need to say it explicitly; everyone already understood.
Ryuna's bright sky-blue eyes trembled. Roy and the others were still on an expedition in the dungeon! Her intuition told her that the two must be related.
A surge of worry welled up in her heart, and Liu bit her lip tightly. Perhaps she should go with her!
Astraea interrupted her thoughts, "Ryu, what should we do now?"
Upon hearing this, Liu, whose mind was in turmoil, gradually calmed down, her sky-blue eyes shining brightly. There was no doubt that what they should do most right now was—
Maintain order!
The more chaotic the situation, the more people will take advantage of the chaos, especially in a place like Orario, where the crisis in the dungeon can only be left to Roy and others.
"But—Lady Astraea." A hint of hesitation appeared in Liu's eyes. Her mission was to protect the goddess. If she left and the evil god Dionysus and Philweis attacked, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Astraea was returned, and the members of the Familia, Enke, were locked up. Tione, Lily, Lefia, and the others in the dungeon were doomed!
"Since your mission is to protect me, then I'll just stay by your side!" Astraea said with a playful smile.
After the head coach finished warming up, he went onto the field himself!
Upon learning the truth about the "Six Rings of Fairy Spirits," most people fled Orario, with only the Astrea Familia and the Ganesha Familia remaining steadfast in their posts.
The Hall of Twilight.
Loki stormed out of the mansion, his usually squinty eyes wide open, cursing, "Which idiot has done this stupid thing again?!"
The top floor of the Tower of Babel.
Even amidst this cataclysmic crisis, Freya's presence remains a breathtakingly beautiful sight that makes the world pale in comparison.
She sat casually in the chair, her breathtakingly beautiful face, which could drive countless beings mad, showing not a trace of panic or emotion.
Every line of her face is the most perfect masterpiece of the Creator, so exquisite that it is flawless, as if it embodies all the concepts of "beauty" in the world.
Those eyes, as bright as the starry sky, gazed calmly at the earth-shattering change in the heavens above; no one knew what she was thinking.
"It has a dangerous aura."
"How dare I disturb my beloved goddess!"
"What is that idiot doing?"
"And what about that siscon cat! That foul-mouthed white elf, and that chuunibyou black elf?!"
Standing behind Freya were the four Flame Gold Warriors, their small faces filled with anxiety and anger beneath their tan armor, as always, spewing profanities.
"What a commotion you've caused again, Dionysus. What are you trying to do?" Hermes murmured. As a neutral god, he had business dealings in various fields and was extremely well-informed.
He learned about Dionysus immediately, and even he was fooled!
"Damn it!!" Asif gritted her teeth.
Faced with this crisis, Asifi is one of the people with the highest probability of survival among everyone, and can use the Flying Shoes to quickly escape Orario.
But she escaped alone.
All members of the Hermes Familia will die, and as the leader, Asphal cannot abandon everyone.
"It's alright, Asphie, they're still in the dungeon!" Hermes said with a smile.
The three strongest clans are all inside the dungeon!
