After Ais risked her life to kill the Dark Giant for everyone, she fell into a coma and only recovered when everyone returned to the thirty-fifth floor where her companions were.
During this time, Eugene used illusion magic to transfer the situation of Tione and Tiona onto Fels, without arousing Finn's suspicion.
However, the overly conspicuous giant wooden Bodhisattva still gave everyone a rather shocking impact.
After Eugene withdrew his Wood Release manipulation, it quickly corrupted and twisted, no longer appearing so majestic and imposing. Even so, its mere outline was enough to be a rare spectacle in the underground city.
"I don't know if going down into the underground city this time was the right thing to do."
Inside the large tent, Finn was deep in thought and silent, while opposite him, the Ghost Archsage was also lost in thought.
Zagnot, a massive crater, the growing pains of the dungeon, dark giants, strange giant trees—all sorts of unprecedented and unheard-of anomalies arose in the dungeon, and they all occurred after the appearance of that unknown powerful being.
Is there any connection between the two? There is no clue to indicate this.
"Fortunately, your battle was not in vain."
Fels said, "Even just watching, I was amazed by your battle. In that case, it shouldn't be difficult to achieve a full upgrade when we return to the ground."
Finn just smiled wryly and said, "Thank you for your kind words."
They almost got wiped out this time. Who would have thought that the big guy survived even after his core exploded, and almost managed to kill Ais?
The danger involved was truly terrifying.
After chatting for a while, Fels became increasingly impressed with this wise little warrior. In the past, as an observer, she rarely interacted with members of the tribe.
This first encounter left a very good impression.
I wonder what that guy might know?
Suddenly, Fels remembered a friend he hadn't seen recently—the leader of the heretics, Eugene Niu Niu.
In her view, even in this underground city, he was definitely the most special existence.
With such a huge change occurring on the thirtieth floor, Niu Niu might know some inside information.
After all, according to him, this place would eventually be incorporated into his territory.
But would he be willing to communicate with Finn?
Eugene was only willing to be friendly to Fels because she had at least helped the heretics, but it would be a different story if it were a main force of the Familia that had killed countless monsters.
Even Finn, who is focused on expanding his clan and achieving great things, might not accept someone like Eugene.
"Even though I have no hope, I should still give it a try."
Having made up her mind, Fells tentatively suggested to Finn that she might be able to get some inside information.
This naturally surprised Finn, who had always been eager to find out the truth behind this series of events.
"I can only try my best, and I can't guarantee anything."
“It’s better than having no clues at all,” Finn laughed.
Seeing his composure, Fels felt somewhat relieved and turned to disappear outside the tent.
Phils had witnessed Finn and his group's strength firsthand. Led by Ais at level 7, and with a group of peak level 6 and 5 members, they were absolutely unmatched.
For some reason, in the Great Sage's heart, Eugene's surging, domineering aura still weighed far more heavily.
That cow is the truly terrifying creature!
……
the other side.
On the fiftieth floor of the underground city, in front of the ruins piled with earth and stones, the red-haired female swordsman's eyes were cold.
She looked at the huge dead tree, then glanced around at her surroundings, a look of resentment appearing on her face.
The realization that I am not special has become increasingly ingrained in my mind since the battle with Ryu that day.
Whether it was the armored man, Lillian, or the current Loki Familia, there were countless powerful individuals who surpassed her strength.
This stirred up a restless feeling in Revis, who was consumed by revenge.
Her current strength has reached the peak of level 6, and she is only one step away from breaking through to level 7, but that is difficult and far away.
Because of the transformation by the Fallen Fairy, she is not as restricted as Finn and the others. As long as she accumulates enough training, she can improve to a higher realm.
But right now, the slowdown in progress is unbearable for Rives.
A proud knight cannot tolerate anyone riding on his head!
"Oh dear, sister, your expression is really scary."
Just then, a charming voice came from behind, accompanied by rustling sounds. Without turning around, Revis knew that it was her mother's new favorite, Poison Ivy Lillian.
She possessed great abilities and wisdom from birth, and the enhancement she gained through her mother's nurturing was even more terrifying.
At least for now, it would be difficult for Revis to match her.
However, one thing is comforting: even the mighty Lillian, like her, was defeated by that armored man.
"What are you doing here?" Ruiweis didn't give her a friendly look at all. Apart from their strength, the two of them were also completely different in appearance and temperament.
"Hehe, I just feel sorry for you. You've been fighting desperately here to become stronger. I hope you don't ruin your body before you even have a chance to take revenge."
"That's none of your concern." Revis ignored the monster's polite words and gripped her sword tightly, showing no sign of letting her guard down.
Since Olivas died and was devoured by her, the relationship between Revis and Lillian has become complicated.
Although they are from the same root, the benefits brought by this mutual cannibalism are enviable.
They are both sisters and enemies to be wary of.
After a moment of silent confrontation, Lillian was the first to break down.
She deflated the tension between them with her charming smile, and said in a seductive voice:
"I'm actually a little envious of you, 480, for not hiding your ambition at all."
"Although we both see each other as bait, it is difficult for us to achieve our desired outcome in the struggle."
"While it's true that you can do anything to become stronger, when it comes to actually doing it, isn't it better to choose the easier way?"
Rives raised her eyebrows, unable to discern what the woman meant.
Lillian, no longer keeping everyone in suspense.
"Join me."
“I have found it, an excellent offering.”
"She is a being more powerful than either of us. Even in her slumber, she possesses a power that is enough to overwhelm either of us."
"I am certain that once she is born, she will immediately take away all of my mother's love. Moreover, if she discovers the secret of cannibalism in the future, our fate will surely be to become her nourishment!"
"How did you know?" Rives frowned. She had never known that her mother was still carrying a fetus.
Lillian did not choose to hide anything and told the whole story of how she was awakened by the shockwave that affected dozens of floors when she was receiving treatment deep in the dungeon, and how she was then shocked by the even deeper, pale and silent domain.
In her past life, as a cunning and treacherous moss giant, she was always able to keenly perceive the most suitable way to survive.
And this time, she continued to follow her own way of survival.
Unfortunately.
Some things, by their very existence, cannot be predicted by the principles of the world.
312 The Night Before the Pale, Silent Flower Blooms
The underground city, the twentieth floor.
The headquarters of the heretics.
After several days apart, even with ample mental preparation, the Great Sage was still taken aback by the imposing presence of the bull before him.
"You've gotten stronger again?"
Fels, with his keen sense of magic, felt that Eugene was now like a bottomless vortex, constantly drawing in everything around him.
As a scholar, she knew that there was a wondrous energy in the world, but she had no way of knowing its nature.
The power of the essence of heaven and earth, let's call it that for now. In Fels' view, Eugene already has the ability to absorb this power.
Doesn't this imply that his energy reserves are inexhaustible?
"You must have something else to say since you've come all this way."
Eugene leaned back lazily in the main stone seat. As his mastery of sage power grew, he no longer needed much preparation to enter a state of stillness. Just like Naruto in his later years, he could rapidly absorb natural energy simply by holding his breath.
Seeing this, Fels put aside his other concerns and went straight to the point, asking about the many strange occurrences in the dungeon.
She expressed her high expectations for Eugene, after all, she had never seen such a strange bull in hundreds of years.
Eugene chuckled lightly, showing little emotion in response to the flattery.
He's the one who caused all this trouble. He knows the whole story, but what good would it do to tell you?
He had originally considered cooperating with the major clans, but now that his strength has increased by leaps and bounds and he has broken through the level 10 barrier, he can easily overturn tables and roofs, so his interest in cooperation has diminished.
Nowadays, he sees Fels as just an ordinary friend. They can chat, but if it involves important matters, both above and below ground, he has no intention of speaking up.
After a few perfunctory words, Eugene's refusal was accepted by the great sage.
Somewhat unwilling, she tentatively brought up her relationship with the Loki Familia, hoping to act as a bridge between the two and promote a win-win situation.
Eugene found it somewhat amusing. He was preparing to take control of the Loki Familia and pursue peaceful coexistence and mutual benefit, something he might have considered two weeks ago.
Sorry you're late. We're not planning to negotiate; we're already preparing for a blitzkrieg!
Still displaying an indifferent attitude, Fels had no choice but to leave with regret.
The more Eugene acted this way, the more she felt he had a deep connection to the truth, whether as a witness or a participant.
We can only wait until that cow changes its mind.
Fels then placed his hopes on Finn and his group. After this battle, their reputation and strength would be pushed to their peak, and they would rival the former Zeus and Hera Familia in popularity.
In that case, no matter how arrogant this bull is, it will take them seriously and choose to make contact.
Her thinking is actually quite normal; people are naturally inclined to pursue fame and fortune.
However, there was a very important misjudgment.
That is, for the Zeus and Hera clan, who have already been wiped out by the dust and smoke.
