Volume 1 Chapter 490

Chapter 490: Are You Playing Dark Souls Here?

After hearing the other person’s words, Lolth realized…

From what it sounds like, this girl should not be an NPC, but a real person.

Is she here to take the trial, or did she wander in by mistake?

Lolth did not know.

But she felt a bit upset about it.

She was just thinking that if she could suppress everything to Elite Level, she would have a definite advantage…

But why on earth is this guy an Epic Level!

Especially now, as the other person had already raised an axe and was jumping at her!

Because she was exposed by the Soul Trial questions earlier, Lolth had given up and revealed her tail and horns.

Unexpectedly, a new person appeared again.

Moreover, upon seeing her identity as a succubus, without a word, she made a sudden attack.

Lolth has already realized that the other party sees her as an NPC!

No, maybe they see her as a respawning monster!

Lolth also knows what the "bearded demon flower" is.

It is a huge plant monster that can move using its vine roots.

They are as tall as two people, with gigantic, bright red flowers that can swallow enemies caught by their roots, with powers ranging from normal to superlative level.

They usually act in groups.

This made Lolth even more eager to correct their inherent understanding of the main plane.

Abyssal Demon = Monster – Many on the main plane, especially the mercenaries, think this way.

But they are actually two different things!

However, no matter how much she corrects them, Lolth must first withstand this blow with her Elite Level power!

Although her level is suppressed, her rank and vitality are still strong, and even if she gets cut, she definitely won’t die…

But it will still hurt!

Taking an epic axe blow with her Elite Level strength will leave Lolth feeling numb for a long time.

However, just like Lolth’s sensing abilities.

She has studied how to defend at the Elite Level to perfection, even more comfortably than sensing.

No, to be precise, she has pushed her Elite Level power to the very limit in everything she does.

Defense, disguise, and escape are just the subjects she focuses on.

It’s just a special limit!

An epic level against an Elite level is a truly overwhelming power. Can it break through the Elite level’s ultimate defense?

The answer is yes.

But…

The epic level also needs to use almost all its strength!

The opponent in front of her treated her like an Elite level and used a somewhat casual jump strike, which isn’t part of this discussion!

It was just for a moment.

Lolth completely gathered back all the magical power she had spread out!

Even though the boundary has been lowered, the skills, knowledge, and experience cannot be taken away.

The strength of the magic and the amount released is only at the Elite Level.

However, the skill and precision in control are still at a level that even the Great Sage cannot match.

What is the ultimate defense?

It is that not a single bit of magic is wasted.

She gently opened her hands.

Threads of magic covered the tip of the axe.

They melted away the magic added on top, blocking the axe’s forward power.

Besides that, there was no other magic.

There was not a single waste or spill.

A few seconds later…

The epic warrior’s axe stopped half a meter in front of Lolth, unable to advance again.

Lolth still only raised one hand.

Seeing the other’s surprised expression and the intention to lift the axe and strike again with greater force, Lolth quickly spoke up, who was originally ready to pose for a little longer.

"Wait—wait!"

"Don’t chop!"

"We can talk!"

And upon hearing Lolth’s words, the other person’s movements hesitated for a moment.

She held the axe in one hand and placed the shield on her back.

Then, she pulled out a pair of earplugs from her pocket and stuffed them in her ears, adding a bit of magic.

This is the right way to deal with a succubus.

The warrior woman opposite showed a wide range of knowledge, rich experience, and decisive judgment.

When Lolth saw the other person’s performance, her face turned pale.

Although she blocked an epic-level attack with her elite-level skill and magic without any harm…

It was just a basic attack of epic level!

It could barely be considered a minor skill!

But she had already given it her all!

"Damn it…!"

Lolth cursed quietly and rolled away to avoid the giant axe that was falling again.

"Bang!"

The axe smashed into the ground, sending rocks flying everywhere!

Lolth could only sigh and be grateful that she had learned how to escape at the Elite Level!

She even used her Elite Level magic to cast a simple space spell, allowing her to dodge attacks by briefly using the power of space!

Then, she shouted even louder.

"Stop! Please stop! I mean no harm!"

"We can get along happily!"

"Hey, can you please take off your earplugs first?"

Lolth rolled around and shouted, looking just like someone playing Mod’s Dark Souls!

In fact, because of the space spell, her rolls really had invincibility frames!

It was almost exactly the same!

Just as Lolth was playing the maze like a Dark Souls simulator…

In the Ruins of Sand, the mercenary running team led by Kanor had already reached the town.

According to Hood’s description, Kanor was flying low in the air while carrying Ann and Dorothy and quickly found the white palace.

There were no gaps, doors, or windows; it looked like a building model someone forgot to finish.

But Kanor, who had already received useful information, landed directly on the rooftop of the white palace.

And just like the scene Lolth encountered, Kanor also heard the sound of mechanical magical synthesis.

"Racial identity recognition in progress!"

"Race detected: Ailuo."

"Identifying identity features, level five permissions."

"White Sand Palace emergency entrance, access granted."

"Welcome, Ailuo race advanced magical technician."

"The passage is open!"

But to Kanor’s surprise, the roof did not open!

Instead, there were sudden and strong waves of energy appearing on the ground in front of the palace.

A huge, wide passage that could allow all the guards of the bronze ruins to pass through suddenly opened!

At the end of the pitch-black passage, it was unknown where it led.

The only thing Kanor could be sure of was that this passage definitely did not lead out of this half-plane.

Perhaps it led to a deeper space?

The mercenaries who arrived one after another also noticed this passage.

Kanor squinted her eyes.

Although she didn’t know what this passage was, the little girl, despite being a genius, wasn’t all-knowing.

But this talent gave her the ability to see through people’s hearts, enough for her to notice one thing.

Among this group of mercenaries, some clearly knew what this passage was, showing unexpected expressions.

Some didn’t know what this passage was, but they showed a brief, hard-to-hide surprise.

"This is really interesting."

Saying this, she gently patted her brother Ann beside her.

"Ann, maybe this time… it’s already the moment for you to take action."

"Next, this place will be even busier than outside."
