It's possible that Tasia hasn't officially terminated her contract and left the Crimson Adventurers yet, because Tasia's name isn't displayed on the team page.
Otherwise, with hundreds of thousands of diamonds at her disposal, Linda could level Tasia up to level 36 in no time.
"Master, be careful."
A shout came from behind.
Linda was caught off guard and failed to notice the treant attacking from the side. Tasia rushed to his side and delivered a beautiful spinning kick, striking the treant in the middle of its torso.
With a snap, a sharp scream came from inside the tree-man, which was kicked in two by Tasia's high heels.
Thanks.
Linda wiped the sweat from her forehead.
His hands and feet ached.
They stood back to back, facing the endless 'sea of trees'.
A hint of fatigue flashed across his face.
Even though they were all Star-Rank Adventurers who could crush Treants, they couldn't withstand the sheer number of enemies.
Tree-type is a Grass-type; it would be great if it had a Fire-type teammate.
Linda thought to herself.
Fire-type attacks are twice as effective against Grass-type attacks.
The probability of triggering a critical hit will also be greatly increased.
Strike the latter's life barrier, and there is a chance that the magic core will fluctuate violently, causing it to die instantly.
Currently, due to the endless battle with the Tree People, Linda's magic power is being rapidly depleted, leaving her with only about 30% remaining.
Tasia was already in poor health, and her performance was even worse than his at this moment.
Leaning against her own back, she was panting heavily. Her maid dress was soaked through, and sweat seeped through the fabric onto her side.
The air in the forest was already humid, making it uncomfortable, and then our sweat mingled together, indistinguishable from each other's...
That discomfort became even more intense.
Linda has a slight case of mysophobia and really wants to go home and take a shower right now.
But these damned tree people clearly weren't going to let him have his way.
"If this continues, things are not going to go well."
Linda glanced at her light blue wristwatch.
The spade-shaped pointer points to exactly 10:00 AM.
The sky had already brightened.
However, the trees in the Dragon Forest are so dense that it is still dark even during the day.
According to the announcement previously issued by the World Tree Divine Court, the closing time for this tenth-level Great Mystery Realm is noon.
Two hours to go.
The exit from Greater Rifts will then close.
Teleportation items and skills cannot be used inside Dragon Forest.
Linda's teleportation stone was gray and unresponsive when infused with magic.
If Linda cannot get Tasia out of the forest in the next two hours, they will be trapped on the tenth floor.
We can only leave when the secret realm opens again.
The thought of this gave Linda a headache.
The danger level of a closed, secret realm is increased several times over!
Even relatively safe resource areas can become high-risk areas.
The monsters have been greatly strengthened, making them much more difficult to defeat.
These are not the most difficult problems.
During the closure of Greater Rifts, the supply of mana will be suspended, and all mana regeneration methods will be prohibited.
Adventurers cannot replenish their magic or fighting spirit from the air or items.
It's equivalent to getting a 'one-life playthrough' and persisting until the Greater Rift reopens.
Linda had done this kind of thing before.
They even enjoy honing their team members in closed, secret realms.
But back then, with his shadowy presence, the whole process resembled a 'wilderness training camp' or a 'team outing,' creating a lighthearted atmosphere reminiscent of a side story in an anime.
But things are different now.
If they kept encountering monsters, she and Tasia simply couldn't handle it.
"Can we get out of Dragon Forest in two hours?"
Linda muttered to herself, unable to arrive at a definitive answer.
"There are two options: go deeper into the area, where the monsters have been cleared out because I transformed into the Shadow of Darkness and fought the Forest Dragon. Their numbers are much fewer than in the outer area, which can effectively conserve energy and provide more protection for the upcoming battle."
Or, take a gamble, kill the treants, and charge towards the outer perimeter!
Linda was torn between two conflicting thoughts.
At that moment, the image of a red-haired girl seemed to appear before his eyes.
By the way,
Is Leah still in the forest?
Lulu, where's Monica?
They weren't captured by Halus, but did they escape Dragon Forest and return to White Dove City?
If you are in a public adventure area, Linda can use the sensor ladybug to start a live stream and ask the adventurers outside.
However, there are special restrictions within the Dragon Forest, preventing the sensor ladybugs from connecting to the magic screens outside, as they are significantly affected by signal jammers.
Linda suddenly realized that if she returned to the villa and found it empty, and none of them had come back...
Then I would be doing a terrible dereliction of duty as the team leader.
Secondly, he is the only one among them with a healing-type profession.
Without healing spells, being injured in a closed Mythic+ dungeon and relying solely on self-healing is no different from waiting to die.
A healing class is the lifeblood of an adventure team and cannot be missing.
Linda pondered for a moment, her gaze gradually becoming profound.
He raised his head and looked up at the night sky.
"Two more... no, in a little over an hour, they'll be here."
"The unique 'scenery' within that secluded, secret realm!"
...
At noon, the sun shone brightly.
The tenth level of the Great Secret Realm, an orange-yellow plain.
The cold night passed, like a dream.
The adventurers experienced the transition between winter and summer in a single day.
Those teams that didn't enter the Dragon Forest slept soundly for a night before using the teleportation stone to enter the tenth floor again.
They wore thin clothes and picked Mondel fruit in a tedious and boring way.
Although it's tedious and the pay is low, it's safe.
