A flash of light appeared in Linda's hand as she took out the Azure Sword from her spatial ring and immediately activated the skill of the Ferocious Fang jewelry: Fatal Strike!
The Azure Sword seemed to transform into a giant iron hammer, slamming 'Lin Xi' into the ground with a thud, leaving him a bloody and gruesome sight.
-4750!
"Aaaaah, why did you hit me? You bastard brother, I'm going to eat you alive!"
Lin Xi's corpse turned into a pool of black water, which then condensed into the shape of a bat standing upright.
Linda sneered: "As expected of a 'humanoid demon'. How could my sister run naked into her brother's arms?"
Appearing before the Phoenix Tail Flower Squad was the juvenile form of the Thousand-Faced Demon, an orange-level rare and precious monster, an anthropomorphic demon.
Anthropomorphic Demon, Level 20, capable of mimicking all the humans it has ever seen.
Later in the game, these anthropomorphic monsters, disguised as adventurer spies, caused the empire to suffer heavy losses.
It is a low-level but extremely disgusting monster.
"Dark Whip!"
"Assassination!"
"Ground bombardment!"
The Phoenix Tail Flower Squad's attack dealt 20,000 damage to the anthropomorphic demon in one round.
Linda donned the Azure Shield, her 'total health' increased to 8845.
Activate the skill [Thorn Armor] to increase your defense.
[Poisonous Enchantment]: Basic attacks become spell damage and increase damage by 50%.
Linda, now fully buffed, pounced on people like a brown bear, braving the anthropomorphic demon's various skills to launch an attack!
The azure sword slashes horizontally and vertically.
A big foot stomped in the face.
A series of damage numbers popped up.
Admittedly, Linda's swordsmanship and fighting skills are only average.
However, his attributes are high.
A single basic attack deals around 1300 damage.
Filled with rage, Linda swung her azure sword, leaving afterimages as she struck the anthropomorphic demon, causing it to howl in pain.
Anyone who saw him would think he was a berserker, and would never think of him as a healer!
"You like anthropomorphism, huh? Fine, fine, anthropomorphize one and let me see!"
Linda raised her azure sword and unleashed the New Year's greeting sword technique.
-1700!
A furious sword strike, delivering a critical hit!
The anthropomorphic demon was like a tattered rag, sliced in two by Linda's sword.
A somewhat unusual system notification sounded in Linda's ear:
[Defeat the level 20 orange-rare monster, the Humanoid Demon, and obtain Mystery Points!]
[Current Mystery Points]
Reaching 100,000 points is undoubtedly good news.
This means that Linda can break through to level 20 at any time and transform from an adventurer into an adventurer master.
They became a mainstay of White Dove City, ranking alongside many Rock-class squads.
But... something's not right.
Linda wondered, shouldn't the reward for killing monsters at the World Tree be diamonds?
The World Tree Goddess did not reward their team experience.
Theoretically, a wave of golden light should bring everyone to level 20; that's how it should be.
The current scene is no different from hunting monsters in the wild.
Linda finishes off the enemy with a finishing blow, gaining Mysterious Points.
Kaphni also noticed something amiss: "Where is the divine gift from the World Tree Goddess?"
"It doesn't seem like it." Monica tilted her head, sensing for a long time but not finding any increase in magic power.
"This is not a monster from the trial."
Linda's expression was solemn as she pointed at the anthropomorphic demon's corpse: "This... is a real, existing demon."
The power of the demon realm has seeped into the World Tree.
Linda was no stranger to this; the higher-ups at World Tree would have similar settings.
However, this situation should not occur below the 20th floor.
To find out the truth, we can only ask the World Tree Goddess herself.
“What do we do now? Leave the secret realm? The main objective has been achieved,” Kaphni said.
"Captain, let's go." Monica felt uneasy.
This dark city exudes an eerie atmosphere.
"Wait a minute, the last adventure objective is not yet complete."
Linda took out a maple-leaf-shaped World Tree leaf, on which was written:
[Adventure Objective: Find and kill the werewolf within seven days (Completed)]
[Bonus Objective: Kill 5 magical beings/superhumans (Completed)]
[Additional Objective: Kill 'God' (Incomplete)]
"This goddess probably refers to the goddess of dawn."
Linda: "The 'goddess' who bewitched my sister and made her disappear, I want to see what she looks like!"
Bishop Marshall has prepared the materials to summon the Goddess of Dawn.
The other one, the heart of an S-class superhuman, also has several.
When Linda escaped, she killed a bunch of them.
The specific summoning method is recorded in the log.
Everything is ready.
"Hmm, I'm quite curious too. Goddess... hehe, she seems less important than a hair on my head." Kaphni wasn't afraid at all and was full of enthusiasm.
Monica was a timid player; her delicate body trembled, and she clung to Linda like a little tail.
"Since it could be killed, this 'god' is at most level 20. How high can a hidden boss on the fourth floor be?"
Linda smiled and gently stroked Monica's soft, long brown hair with her large, warm hand.
It's not that he's gotten arrogant; even if the fourth-floor boss is outrageous, it won't reach the level of the Red-Armored Crab King.
He himself has more than 120,000 mystery points, which can be used to level up 20 times in a critical moment and unlock two ultimate skills.
All ultimate skills either have extremely high damage multipliers or powerful support effects. Adventurers who possess ultimate skills will see their strength rise several levels.
This includes a one-time bonus to attributes upon reaching level 20.
