Chapter 47: Alarm
"Brother!" Neymar’s face changed drastically, instinctively reaching for her weapon.
Without a second glance, Teresa swiftly sidestepped and thrust her sword forward.
Thud!
The warrior stared at the large sword piercing his neck, his mouth gaping open.
And Teresa?
The warrior’s sword was lodged in her left shoulder, cutting through her armor, blood seeping out.
Swish!
Teresa disregarded the fallen warrior, pulling back her sword to continue fighting.
The pastor quickly tried to heal Teresa, but Teresa’s bone was injured by a sword earlier, so it couldn’t be treated by this pastor. She needed to go elsewhere to fully recover.
"Wait, maybe it was just an accident!" The warrior’s classmate saw what happened and thought Teresa was too impulsive in her actions. She could have blocked the sword and only hurt Karoso a little, instead of risking serious injury to kill someone.
"Children, this is a battlefield, not a school." Teresa turned around and gave him a cold glance. "If this kind of thing is forgivable, then don’t come crying to me when someone accidentally harms you in the future."
"I told him he could trust me to protect his back, even if it costs me my life, I won’t let any harm come to him from behind!"
Feeling the unfriendly gazes around him, the student shrank back.
Without looking back, Karoso continued to fight the cultists.
Teresa acted as if nothing had happened, returning to Karoso’s side as they worked together smoothly to defeat the cultists.
Those who had thoughts of harming Karoso were now starting to hesitate.
Anyone who dared to make a move would be killed by Teresa or her followers!
The people from the other two countries saw how brave Teresa was, and it made them feel more confident, united, and trusting of the girl.
[What a coincidence! We are so in sync!]
[Teresa is amazing. If she says she can handle it, then we can trust her with our backs.]
[Teresa is so strong and powerful!]
[Aww, Teresa protecting Honey Karoso looks so beautiful.]
[Oh no, I feel like changing my favorite couple again.]
……
Ten minutes later, the battle finally came to an end.
Karoso stuck his sword into the ground, still maintaining the lowest level of magical output.
Other things may run out, but this sword must always be kept. This is Karoso’s greatest reliance.
"Why did you come out from there?" Teresa saw Karoso resting and couldn’t help but come over to Karoso, casually tossing him a bottle of blue potion.
"Is this a magic replenishment potion?" Karoso was puzzled for a moment. "I remember this couldn’t be brought in."
"Couldn’t be brought in, found it here. Dare to drink?" Teresa said casually.
"Things here shouldn’t be drunk casually." Karoso casually tossed the bottle back.
Teresa caught it and laughed, "Alright, then I won’t drink it, help him restore his magic."
Two Pastors stepped forward, each throwing out a card.
[Name: Mana Regeneration]
[Type: Spell]
[Star Level: 2]
[Quality: Blue Rare]
[Job Restriction: Pastor]
[Introduction: Restore a small amount of magic power. If you are smart, you should know who to use it on for the best effect.]
Karoso felt a large amount of magic power restored and couldn’t help but relax.
Two cards appeared in his hand, they were two Greedy Hands.
The two cards disappeared, and four more cards appeared in Karoso’s hand, one of which was Silence Is Golden, and the other two were Chaos.
"Why use magic again?" Teresa said helplessly. "Bring out another Pastor."
Another Pastor stepped forward and restored some magic power to Karoso.
"Okay, that’s enough," Karoso stood up.
"Can you tell us what you experienced down there?" Teresa asked eagerly.
Neymar was also curious. She had just contacted Karoso, but was interrupted by cultists. Neymar could only proceed with the usual methods.
In the empty room earlier, she was the first to wake up, then rescued some companions.
After breaking out of the room, she met Teresa who led the team, and they huddled together temporarily.
"I defeated the cultist at the beginning, put on his clothes, and sneaked in," Karoso said.
"You dared to act right away? You’re very brave!" Teresa looked surprised. "Aren’t you afraid of something going wrong?"
"Hmm." Karoso didn’t mention the card guessing game.
"I know some who acted at the beginning, but they all died," Teresa said calmly. "You’re the only one who survived."
"Because I am very strong," Karoso said bluntly.
"Haha, indeed, you have this strength!" Teresa patted Karoso’s shoulder. "Not worse than me."
"What happened afterward?"
"Afterward, I found a diary…"
Soon, Karoso shared the information he encountered below, not in great detail, but focusing on key points, especially that the Netherworld Flower is alive, can control Poisoner, and excels in mental attacks.
Conquering the dungeon, especially such a large one, relies on numbers. By the third stage, the huge difference is not yet apparent, and individual heroism is largely restricted.
"Hmm, so, this Netherworld Flower is the key?" Teresa rubbed her chin. "Is the owner of this dungeon the Netherworld Flower, or that dean?"
"You will need to judge that yourself, I will go find the Netherworld Flower," Karoso said. "At present, the Netherworld Flower is an extra route. Whether it’s good or bad, we’ll only know after seeing it."
"Do you mean, we’ll split up?" Teresa looked surprised. "Speaking of which, your last name is Colloa, is…"
"My father is Osiris Colloa."
"Then you should understand the importance of teamwork, right?" Teresa frowned.
"You should also know that being in your team might not be a good thing," Karoso said seriously. "Someone might try to attack me in the dungeon, which could disrupt your formation."
"Without me, your fighting strength would be weaker with just them."
"I can handle them," Teresa said confidently. "I lead soldiers who obey orders without hesitation, showing no mercy!"
Normal college students find it hard to harm others, even though they can freely attack cultists in this dungeon, seeing them as mere monsters.
Even if the opponents are human, they are like humanoid monsters.
Killing a familiar person is different from killing a monster, carrying different psychological burdens.
However, Teresa’s people can decisively take lives.
"Yes, I understand," replied Karoso. "It’s best to avoid some troubles if we can."
"But…"
[Darn it, do you know what you’ve done!]
At that moment, words appeared in front of the crowd.
They were very familiar with these words, as they had seen them when they first entered.
[One of you has discovered something incredible, alerting the owner of this laboratory!]
[He wanted to play games with you all slowly, but you broke his rules!]
[You could have eliminated him without a trace, found him when he didn’t know how strong you were, and stopped him.]
[But now, things are different!]
[He discovered everything, and you will face the true power of this laboratory!]
The bodies of the people in gray robes and black robes gradually melted into the ground, leaving only their clothes, just like Karoso saw in the illusion!
