If you continue like this, you'll only lose even more miserably.
Nobody cares about you anymore.
Aiko sighed.
At her wedding with Linda later,
Let's give Leah a few more pieces of wedding candy.
Otherwise, Leah would be suffering terribly.
"Come here, let me hug you."
"Ah, what are you doing—let me go!"
...
The World Tree Secret Realm, thirteenth floor, the Forest of Mist.
In the thick fog where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, the Ice Flower Adventure Team relied entirely on 'smell' to determine the direction of the monsters.
"Ice Blade Waltz!"
Isa was like a dancer gliding on ice, with one deadly ice blade after another shooting forward.
The thick fog parted briefly, revealing a three-meter-tall tree-man made of dead wood.
The guardian of the secret realm, the immortal tree demon.
Level 27, HP 100,000.
Following Linda's instructions, the members of Ice Flower splashed a highly pungent liquid onto the Undying Tree Demon to determine its location.
After five minutes of fierce fighting, an extremely eerie scream emanated from the Undying Tree Demon's hollow. In the blink of an eye, the withered tree trunk returned to its verdant state, sprouting new branches and leaves—
In Binghua's villa, Linda sat in front of a small broadcast screen, intently watching the screen.
When the screams rang out, he immediately realized: it was phase two.
When the Undying Tree Demon's health drops below 50,000, it will frantically grow new branches and leaves until its health recovers to 70,000.
Adventurers must deplete the Undying Tree Demon's health within one minute, otherwise the monster will repeatedly regenerate health... Maximum number of regenerations: 15!
Ninety-nine percent of adventure teams will be completely wiped out by the Undying Tree Demon and die tragically in the Fog Forest.
"Now!"
"Bards and scholars, unleash your level 20 ultimate skills! Isha and the rest of the team, get ready! Don't hold back, attack the monster with all your might!"
Linda's golden advice was sent to the ladybug in the pouch hanging on Issa's thigh.
"Let's do it!"
"Isa cried out."
The team's two main support classes include the bard, who wields a harp and sings with a voice as melodious as a lark.
"Great forest god, lend me your power, and let us sing a song of lightness and ferocity!"
The scholar girl swung her staff forward, and a red light fell on Isha: "Battle Fury!"
Both of these professions' level 20 ultimate skills are powerful support skills. When combined, the Ice Flower team members' auras surged, and their output capabilities increased by at least 30%.
The crowd swarmed forward, besieging the Undying Tree Demon.
Isa took the lead, her rapier piercing the eye of the Undying Tree Demon with precision, like an arrow slicing through space!
On the screen, damage numbers popped up one by one.
Just as Linda predicted, with Ice Flower's output capabilities, it would be more than enough to take down all of the Undying Tree Demon's health in one minute.
The tree demon crashed down, its corpse transforming into a ball of light that shot towards the group of people with ice flowers.
Upon clearing the thirteenth floor, Ice Flower received a divine gift from the Goddess of the World Tree, and all team members leveled up!
The largest ball of light then transformed into a rain of gold coins with a bang, interspersed with seven blue lights and three purple lights.
Linda realized that Binghua was lucky.
Even with a 'five-star' clear, you can still get three pieces of purple equipment. Other adventure teams would be lucky to get two pieces on average.
He sent another suggestion: "The Undying Tree Demon will leave behind a vibrant green leaf; that leaf can guide you to find the Metal Slime."
Is this it?
In the Misty Forest, Isa and her teammates were immersed in the excitement of getting multiple pieces of purple equipment when they saw this suggestion and realized that they hadn't collected their biggest loot yet.
Under Linda's guidance, the group returned to the center of the misty forest and, following the guidance of the leaves, successfully opened a tree wall leading to a dead end.
In the clearing behind the tree wall, a metal slime the size of a bucket is fast asleep!
With the appearance of this rare monster, suggestions immediately flooded the screen.
Linda wasn't the only one watching the live stream of the ice flower display; people from the inner city and the Sparrow District, as well as the Adventurers' Guild Hall, were also there.
[On the thirteenth floor, there really is a metal slime!]
Sigh... my team just cleared the thirteenth floor not long ago.
[Maybe we can get an orange one.]
The Metal Destroyer Potion was taken by one of Iceflower's archers, who immediately unleashed a devastating attack, 'Volley of Arrows,' striking the metal slime more than twenty times.
In Linda's field of vision, there was a -1.
In just one second, the metal slime didn't even have a chance to react before it turned into a ball of light and died instantly.
Within that ball of light, there were two pieces of equipment shining with an orange glow!
Isa glanced at them and quickly made a decision: she would keep the longsword for herself, and give the other item, an earth-attribute accessory that only required level 20 to wear, and a metal slime magic core, to Linda.
When she expressed her thoughts, she was met with opposition from her teammates.
"Captain, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
The team's leader, Fanice, with her green bob haircut and large glasses, seemed a little reluctant to part ways.
A level 20 orange accessory starts at 100,000 gold coins.
Iceflower had already spent 100,000 gold to buy the Metal Destroyer, and Fanis couldn't bear to give this piece of jewelry to Linda.
Isa tapped Fanis on the head: "The hidden monster raised all of us by 1 level. Even if all the equipment is given to Linda, it's still Ice Flower that benefits."
"Besides... there's also an orange longsword."
Isa felt the power within the longsword, and a hint of joy appeared on her serious face.
