Chapter 435 The Game Invitation Initiated by the Evil God
Successfully defeated the filthy immortal spirit!
The 65th floor, the "Glacier Realm," is calm and peaceful!
Roy checked the rewards he had received. He had worked himself to the bone and even used the LV.9 trial card as his trump card. It would be too painful if he didn't get enough compensation.
The attribute points dropped by the Fairy Dragon have been used up, leaving only the Crimson Dragon Heart (living). The Slaughtering Emperor dropped 1800 attribute points, a substitute doll, a Dungeon Heart, and a random evolution card, making the item rewards quite generous.
A doll that replaces one death, a dungeon heart that enhances the power of the earth, and an ability evolution card!
He just had a few fewer free attribute points, but that's understandable; when he defeated the Slaughter Emperor, he was still at LV.9.
During the trial period.
The difference in their strength is not too great.
"Is it over—?"
Looking at the flattened sixty-fifth floor, the crowd asked uncertainly, "Ever since the incident of the Six Rings of the Immortal Spirit, the filthy Immortal Spirit lurking in the underground city has been a mountain weighing on everyone's heads."
Now, this mountain has finally been moved!
They also paid a considerable price.
Ryu, Tione, Haruhime, Ais, Finn, Grace, Leon, and Allen were seriously injured. Alphia used her third magic, Annihilation - Prayer, but due to the magic's side effects, she was temporarily unable to move.
This battle was extremely difficult, involving the brain and heart of the tainted fairy, countless fairy remains, the Black Maiden, a replica of the Great Wind Fairy, the LV.9 tainted ice dragon and fairy dragon, and the LV.10 Slaughtering Fairy Emperor!
But what's unbelievable is that no one was killed!
This was not a miracle, but the result of thorough preparation. The miraculous elixir of life extended life, Amid continuously used powerful healing magic, and Roy's spatial magic provided rapid rescue. Unless one was instantly killed, one could always be saved.
"It's a success!"
The tension that had been building up around everyone finally eased slightly, and they sat on the ground, exhausted and paralyzed.
The entire floor was ravaged by the golden bell, and no monsters will appear for a while.
The "Zagnat" that were born were all crushed by Alphia's "Extinction - Prayer" like speed bumps, without causing the slightest ripple.
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
The group breathed in the air, their faces beaming with barely suppressed joy. They had defeated a being comparable to "Leviathan, the King of the Sea"!
The strength of everyone present is indispensable!
Finn said, "It's not over yet. This is the underground city. Returning to the surface is the true victory!"
"Um!"
Ais and Riveria, Grace and Leon, Alphia and Amid supported each other.
A smile appeared on everyone's face. Returning to the surface required passing through sixty-four floors, which was not easy, but for this team that had just defeated the filthy immortal spirit and was in high spirits, it was far from difficult!
Amidst the cheerful atmosphere, Roy's brow was furrowed, his mood far from relaxed. Cassandra's precognitive dream, the vanished Dionysus—
Will that evil god really give up?
He seems to have overlooked something!
"Roy————" Looking at the lingering heaviness and weariness between Roy's brows, a trace of heartache flashed in Ryu's clear sky-blue eyes. The boy in front of her had endured too much alone to protect them.
Roy looked at the elven girl, a faint worry shrouding her cool and beautiful face, and comforted her, "The corrupt fairy has been defeated. Dionysus's forces at most consist of Philvis and the freak Revis, who pose no threat to us—"
As he spoke, Roy's voice abruptly stopped.
"Roy, what's wrong?" Ryu stretched out her slender little hand and tightly grasped the boy's big hand.
"Could it be that I was wrong?!" Roy murmured. If he couldn't threaten them, then who could he threaten?
Something he had always overlooked.
A flaw in thinking!
As the leader of the clan and the commander of this operation, Roy was constantly thinking about maximizing profits, obtaining the highest returns with the least cost and casualties. This is human nature, because their lives are finite and they have to do this.
So he subconsciously assumed the other person was like that too!
But the gods are different!
The gods descend to the mortal realm seeking pleasure, and so do the evil gods; they don't calculate things carefully.
The Orario Alliance's campaign against the Filthy Fairy was a massive undertaking, with numerous adventurers on different floors providing cover. Dionysus, with Philvis and the freak Revis at least level 7, was ready to inflict irreparable damage on them at any moment!
Roy was constantly on guard against the other party.
Attacking adventurers on different floors can inflict heavy casualties on the allied forces; helping the tainted fairy will multiply the difficulty of this battle.
If Roy were in that position, he would definitely do the same thing, destroying the enemy's manpower step by step.
Dionysus did not appear at all, and the opponent chose the worst possible strategy!
Completely different from normal human thinking!
The gods pursue spiritual happiness, not material things; they can even abandon impure and ethereal things!
Roy recalled the information about the other party: Dionysus's self-proclaimed goal was to plunge the lower realms into eternal chaos and gain supreme pleasure. To achieve this, the best answer was probably—
Roy said in a deep voice, "This is a diversionary tactic; Dionysus's real target is the surface!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback.
Roy pulled out the eye crystal with his other hand.
Sometime later, the gods, who had always been chattering and shouting in their ears, became remarkably "quiet." Immersed in the joy of slaying the filthy spirits, no one noticed this. They had averted a major crisis for the city; would those gods really be so docile?
"Gentlemen, we meet again!"
As the image appeared on the eye crystal in Roy's hand, a gentle, jade-like voice slowly rang out.
The god-like figure appearing in the eye's eye has handsome features, shoulder-length golden hair, and wears a fitted suit. Who else could it be but Dionysus!
Ryu's face was grim, suppressing her anger. "Dionysus, why were you there?!"
That's right, the background inside the eye shows Dionysus's position on the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel!
"How could that be!"
In that instant, the joy of successfully defeating the filthy fairy vanished. Finn, Riveria, Leon, and the others gripped their weapons tightly, their faces grave.
Dionysus did not answer Ryu's question, but continued, "I didn't expect you to actually defeat that child, and without any casualties. It's a remarkable achievement. You truly are the heroes on whom we have placed our hopes—"
Finn interrupted, "Dionysus, how are the gods on the surface?"
Everyone stared coldly at Dionysus in the eye crystal—their base had been raided! At this moment, most of Orario's main forces were inside the dungeon; those with LV.7 combat power could do whatever they wanted on the surface!
Don't worry!
Dionysus picked up the eye crystal, looked around, and laughed, "I'm tired of the gods' slaughter. Even if I kill these guys, they'll just rise again thousands or tens of thousands of years later. It's pointless!"
The image in the eye-crystal shows the gods on the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel still unharmed: Loki, Astraea, Hermes, Hestia—
Everyone saw Dionysus's two powerful warriors, Philvis and the strange Revis.
Finn secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Dionysus, what exactly do you want to do?"
"hehe!"
A mysterious smile appeared on Dionysus's handsome face as he looked at Roy.
That happened before the campaign began.
Inside the dimly lit sixty-fifth floor, the filthy heart was absorbing Ais, subduing the girl's will. A tremendous power was being transmitted through the green flesh pipes, and the half-human, half-snake filthy fairy couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression.
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhh~"
No matter how many high-level immortal essence fragments they absorb, they can never compare to living great immortal essences. Their heavenly sister, Arya, possesses the highest affinity for magic elements.
The filthy fairy's excited gaze fell upon the evil god and his minions. "Dionysus, thank you so much for sending me this child."
"You're welcome. We've been partners for many years, and I also received a celestial essence embryo from you," Dionysus said with a smile.
They had their eyes on that elevator for a long time.
By secretly manipulating things and forcing Ais into a trap, they could cause her to fall into the abyss and become food for the filthy fairies. Although Roy's vigilance caused many setbacks and exposed his identity, the result was good: they got Ais.
"The Orario adventurers are preparing to attack you. Be careful," Dionysus said.
With a large number of adventurers entering the dungeon and the meticulous arrangement of dozens of floors causing such a commotion, Dionysus naturally noticed the city's movements.
"Giggle giggle giggle!"
The filthy fairy seemed completely unfazed, laughing infatuatedly, "More people will join the heroes' paradise (the demon realm)? That's wonderful!"
"Yes, that's a really good thing!"
Dionysus followed the other's words, saying that the Filthy Fairy, like Philweis, died in the dungeon, accidentally had a magic stone implanted in her, her soul returned to heaven, and her body inherited her original memories, giving birth to new intelligence.
In fact, implanting a magic stone will not affect intelligence, except for turning the body into a monster.
The filthy fairy went mad entirely because her beloved hero, Sophia, had died. With the idea of building a paradise (harem) for the hero, she lingered on for thousands of years, living alone in the dungeon. During this time, she devoured the remains of many fairy sisters, lost her fairy pride, and completely degenerated into a mad monster!
The filthy fairy said in a low voice, "Lord Dionysus, please stay as well. Paradise needs the presence of gods to be perfect!"
"No need, my stage is on the ground!"
Hearing the filthy fairy's teeming words, Dionysus gave a forced smile. He actually wanted to keep him here too. This guy was really crazy.
"That's such a pity," the filthy fairy lamented. She wasn't confident she could keep the other person alive; the divine power unleashed by the god's self-harm could instantly destroy her.
Dionysus, "Lend me Revis."
"Can!"
The filthy fairy agreed, and she received Ais, while Revis was a rather insignificant gift.
With Philvis and the red-haired monster Revis as his two powerful allies, Dionysus returned to the surface.
Philweiss, "Lord Dionysus, wouldn't it be easier to achieve our goals by cooperating with her?"
"Philvis, I don't think she can defeat the adventurers of Orario. Her defeat is already destined." Dionysus gently stroked the girl.
Phil Weiss could hardly believe it.
Dionysus, however, firmly believed in his judgment.
The tainted fairy essence obtained from "Sword Princess" Ais Wallenstein is indeed very powerful, with a combat strength reaching a terrifying LV.10. However, the adventurers of this era are extraordinary, with potential that even surpasses that of Zeus and Hera's Familia!
Not to mention that amazing boy!
Dionysus witnessed Roy's rise from LV.1 to the top!
No matter how powerful the filthy fairy is, it is bound to fail when facing those adventurers with unwavering will. Roy will surely create a miracle once again!
But the filthy fairy spirit was merely a pawn in his game.
The Astrea Familia, Loki Familia, Freya Familia, Ganesha Familia, the School District—once these powerful clans enter the dungeon, it will be his opportunity.
Dionysus, accompanied by Phileas and Rives, swaggered into the Tower of Babel.
Freya and Helen used their charm to maintain order in the city in place of the Ganesha Familia. At this moment, no one on the surface could stop the trio of evil gods.
"You are Dionysus?!"
"And there's also the harbinger of death—Philwis!"
Exclamations rang out as the Level 2 and Level 3 adventurers remaining on the ground swarmed forward, only to be easily swept away by Philvis and Revis.
The Tower of Babel square was littered with corpses.
The piercing alarm blared throughout the entire city!
As the trio of Dionysus attempted to ascend the Tower of Babel, an angry voice rang out.
"Get out of here!"
Tiona's eyes widened, and the large double blades in her hands drew a cold arc, exuding domineering power, as she fiercely slashed at Philwiss at the waist!
Facing the power of LV.7, a strike strong enough to split mountains, Phil Weiss remained calm.
Her figure was like a feather fluttering in the wind, lightly turning to the side, the sharp axe blade brushing past her fluttering clothes.
boom!
The sword blade struck the empty ground.
Tiona's terrifying power erupted, and the hard bluestone ground shattered, with countless rock fragments mixed with soil shooting into the sky like a fountain.
Tiona (LV.7), Anya (LV.6), Chloe, and Lunova blocked Dionysus.
"As expected of him, he even has extra combat power."
Dionysus was astonished when he saw Tiona and the others. Despite facing a LV.9 Fairy Dragon and a LV.10 Killing Spirit Emperor, Roy still left a portion of his forces on the surface. His composure was truly terrifying.
But it's such a pity, it's not enough!
Dionysus said, "Philvis, Revis, give it your all and defeat them!"
Phil Weiss and Rives stepped forward.
"The Holy Staff of Exorcism unleashes lightning, sweeping away my enemies!"
The Staff of Dionysus, the Supreme God!
Philweis finished her incantation in an instant, and a blinding silver lightning bolt shot out from the short sword in her hand, tearing through the air and rushing straight towards the four people at an astonishing speed.
"So fast!"
Tiona and Anya, relying on their extreme instincts and superior abilities, managed to dodge at the last second. The terrifying electric snakes grazed their bodies, leaving scorching marks.
The lower-level Chloe and Lunova were caught off guard and struck by the silver lightning.
Boom! Thud!
A blinding burst of lightning erupted, and the two screamed as they were blasted away like puppets with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground some distance away and losing consciousness on the spot.
Upon seeing this, Tiona and Anya were furious!
"I will never let you advance another step, as ordered by the captain!" Tiona gritted her teeth. Only she and Anya remained to fight on the surface.
Tiona suddenly exerted force with her legs, her body soaring into the sky, and her large twin blades slashed down at Philwiss's head.
clang!
Phil Weiss remained calm, casually raising the slender short sword in her hand to parry.
The two made contact, producing a crisp and ear-piercing metallic clang, sparks flying everywhere. Incredibly, the slender short sword actually caught Tiona's exaggeratedly large double blades steadily.
The terrifying power transmitted by the weapon made Tiona's expression change: What is this power?
"I'm level 8 now!"
Phil Weiss said coldly that all of this was thanks to Roy, which enabled her to make up her mind to frantically devour magic stones in the dungeon, resulting in a surge in her ability value.
She's incredibly strong now!
Philweis's figure transformed into a blur that tore through vision, her slender fist, imbued with the power to shatter mountains, struck Tiona's flat stomach!
boom!
A terrifying power erupted instantly!
"Ugh!" Tiona let out a painful groan, flying backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air before crashing heavily into a distant stone wall.
Almost at the same moment!
"roar!"
On the other side, Revis showed no mercy either. Her fists transformed into a dense storm of fist shadows, accompanied by a shrill whistling sound that tore through the air, and poured towards Anya like a crazy machine gun.
Faced with the relentless onslaught, Anya gritted her teeth and wielded her dropper spear with lightning speed, creating a dense defensive barrage in front of her!
clang!clang!clang!
The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out wildly!
Even though they were only one level apart, the difference was obvious. Despite Anya's best efforts, she still appeared extremely vulnerable in the face of Revis's strength and speed.
boom!
A powerful punch pierced through the gun barrage and slammed into Anya's chest.
"Pfft!" Anya spat out blood, and like a broken straw, she flew backward helplessly, crashing heavily to the ground, no longer able to fight!
Seeing Tiona and Anya lose made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom.
No one dared to stop Dionysus.
"Forget it, don't waste time!"
Dionysus stopped Philevis and Revis from killing the two men.
It was not that Dionysus had good intentions.
Rather, he knew Tiona's information: the worse the Amazon girl's condition, the higher her ability value; they didn't have much time to waste here.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Silver electric snakes climbed onto Tiona and Anya, causing them to be paralyzed, and the two could only watch helplessly as Dionysus and his companions entered the Tower of Babel.
"Everyone, I'm back!"
Dionysus arrived at the hall on the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel, opened his arms, and declared his return.
The battle against the demons was nearing its end, and all the gods were keeping their eyes fixed on the Eye Crystal.
When Dionysus walked in as if no one else was there, everyone was dumbfounded. The wide hall was deathly silent, and the minds of the many gods seemed to have crashed.
"!!!"
Only Loki, Astraea, and Hermes reacted quickly, standing up abruptly with wide eyes, and in an instant, they understood everything.
A moment later, a commotion arose among the gods.
"Dionysus, you scoundrel, you've caused us so much trouble, and you still dare to come back? Watch my flying kick!" A male god leaped into the air.
Phil Weiss slapped the male god away.
The overwhelming force instantly stunned everyone present, and many gods glared angrily at Dionysus.
"Trouble, trouble, this is really troublesome!" A bead of cold sweat slid down Hermes' forehead.
"He actually used a diversionary tactic, Dionysus! This guy looks harmless, how come I never noticed him before? He's so insidious!" Loki gritted his teeth.
"This is inevitable."
Astraea's beautiful and gentle face showed a slight fading of her smile. In essence, this was not a diversionary tactic. If they did not deal with the tainted fairy essence, the other party might prepare the "Fairy Essence Six Rings" in the dungeon, causing Orario on the surface to be reduced to ashes.
Dionysus used the filthy angels as bait, and seized the opportunity to take advantage of their vulnerability.
"Congratulations, gentlemen! From this moment on, you are my hostages!" Dionysus declared.
"Dionysus, how dare you!"
"We are dearest family and friends, brothers and sisters!"
"I don't want to be sent back to Heaven yet, waaaaah!"
Realizing that Dionysus was serious, the gods were terrified, their faces turned pale, and they began to wail and howl.
Dionysus looked at the eye crystal, a wicked and insane smile spreading across his face. "Roy, let's play a game. From now on, every five minutes, I will send back a god, until you return to the surface!"
