Then, he began to laugh: "Hehehe..."

Xiao Tangqiu was frightened by Lepnobet and subconsciously took a step back towards Shen Yuan. Although Lepnobet seemed to have only changed in appearance at this time, he keenly noticed the heavy expressions of Shen Yuan and others, and the situation was obviously extremely bleak.

Shen Yuan said coldly: "He directly swallowed the devil's heart and has become a generation of devil..."

Duan Hongzhen, standing by, couldn't help but curse: "Damn! A generation of demons! This is no longer an ordinary S-level mission!"

Yu Fuling's face was as cold as frost: "Brother Chen, let's force our way out of the dungeon!"

Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian on the side were confused, but Xiao Tangqiu quickly grasped some information - after taking the devil's heart, Lepnobet became what Shen Yuan called the "first-generation devil". The first-generation devil is obviously not easy to deal with, otherwise Shen Yuan and the others would not have such heavy expressions. But since there is a first-generation devil, are there second-generation and third-generation devils?

Could it be that not only do demons exist in this world, but their numbers are so huge that they even need to be divided into different levels to distinguish them?

When Xiao Tangqiu heard Yu Fuling's suggestion to force them to leave the dungeon, his heart skipped a beat. He had previously learned from Su Manluo that there were items that could be used to force them to leave the dungeon. It was no surprise that veteran players like Shen Yuan had such items, but it was obviously impossible for him and Tang Mianmian, two newbies, to have them. Once Shen Yuan and the others chose to force them to leave the dungeon, he and Tang Mianmian would have no choice but to stay here and wait for death.

Yu Fuling hurriedly advised: "Brother Chen, this dungeon is no longer just an ordinary S-level mission. You have used that ability too many times in this dungeon. If you continue, your body will not be able to bear it..."

Celluloid's expression was more serious than ever before: "Yes! Brother Shen! You can no longer use that ability! Let's go!"

Xiao Tangqiu looked at Shen Yuan deeply, pursed his lips, and felt mixed emotions.

He knew that what Yu Fuling and Celluloid said must be true, because after destroying the giant snake just now, the Ouroboros tattoo on Shen Yuan's body did not disappear like before, but has not disappeared since then, and still appears on Shen Yuan's cheek and neck, clear and obvious, flowing slowly, as if the eternal snake in the tattoo will come alive in the next moment and devour everything.

This should be a symbol that Shen Yuan is reaching his limit.

Xiao Tangqiu lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly inwardly.

Although it was emotionally difficult to accept, he knew rationally that even if Shen Yuan and the others chose to leave the copy, they had no reason or qualifications to blame him. After all, from the very beginning, Shen Yuan had no obligation to help and protect them. In this cruel world of killing, it was the law of the jungle and only the fittest survived. Even if they could rely on the strong for a while, they could not rely on them for a lifetime.

They are not strong enough and can only be eliminated... right?

Xiao Tangqiu turned his head away, not daring to look at Shen Yuan's expression, let alone expect Shen Yuan's final answer.

However, the next second, Shen Yuan's voice rang out coldly: "No, we stay."

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned. He had never expected Shen Yuan to choose to stay. Yu Fuling cried out in disbelief: "Brother Shen, the one on the other side is a demon!"

Shen Yuan calmly interrupted Yu Fuling: "I'll stay, you go."

Celluloid obviously disagreed: "Brother Shen, your body won't be able to hold on!"

Shen Yuan looked coldly at the puppet-like Lepnobet, and said calmly, "We can't escape forever."

Yu Fuling was very anxious: "But Brother Chen, in your current state... you will be retaliated!"

Xiao Tangqiu, who was standing by, felt a sudden pang in his heart. Backlash? What did that mean?

However, given the current situation, he certainly couldn't question Yu Fuling right now. He could only look anxiously at Shen Yuan, but Shen Yuan remained calm and unmoved: "He's here."

The black Ouroboros tattoo on his cheek flowed slowly, and the tail-biting snake totem coiled and intertwined, like a beast eager for battle.

"You go... I'll stay."

Shen Yuan repeated it again, obviously having made up his mind.

Without waiting for Yu Fuling and Xilulu to object, Duan Hongzhen, who had been casually playing with his knife, was the first to speak. He said with a half-smile, "How can the boss stay behind to cover the rear while the younger brother retreats first?"

Yu Fuling bit her lip and said, "If you don't leave, we won't leave either!"

Celluloid also snorted and said with an unhappy look: "Brother Chen, we are teammates on the same team! You are still our captain, how could we abandon our captain!"

Shen Yuan said calmly, "It will be too late if we don't leave now."

Duan Hongzhen said with a grin, "It's too late."

At this time, Lepnobet had finally gotten over the refractory period of his transformation. He could not tolerate the disregard of him by these foreign visitors. He sneered and waved his hand, and several puppet strings shot out from his palm and shot towards the crowd.

Tang Mianmian had no time to dodge and was immediately entangled by the Lepnobet puppet strings. Then he lost control of his body and turned to pounce on Duan Hongzhen.

Duan Hongzhen nimbly dodged the puppet strings and kicked Tang Mianmian, who was attacking him under the control of Lepnobet, away. He was very strong and kicked Tang Mianmian far away.

After rolling on the ground for a few times, Tang Mianmian quickly got up and pounced on Duan Hongzhen again.

Xiao Tangqiu was also controlled by the puppet strings and couldn't control himself and rushed towards Shen Yuan, but was dodged by Shen Yuan with an expressionless face.

"Kill each other, hehe!" Lepnobet was very excited, and his androgynous voice let out bursts of strange laughter. "I will make all of you into puppets! You will definitely become my best works!"

He waved his hand and shot out countless puppet strings again. This time, the puppet strings were attached with black air visible to the naked eye. Although Yu Fuling and Celluloid dodged at the first moment, those puppet strings wrapped with black air seemed to have their own consciousness and chased towards them. They hurriedly picked up their weapons to resist.

However, the puppet strings were extremely tough and could not be pulled or cut. They were impossible to deal with. Soon, they were entangled in the puppet strings along with their weapons.
