A bright red gate blocked Linda and the others' way.
There are three such doors on the way to the final boss, representing three kinds of trials.
There are a total of ten trial levels, and adventurers will randomly select three of them each time they enter.
Only by defeating them for the first time will you receive the goddess's blessing. Afterwards, even if you repeatedly "grind" monsters using a return scroll, you will not receive any reward, thus preventing adventurers from getting stuck in a bug.
"With these hands that I've washed ten times, I'll push open the door to good fortune!"
Linda silently recited the command in her mind and placed her hands on either side of the door.
The force originates in the legs, passes through the waist, and is transmitted to the arms.
"open!"
The heavy doors creaked open to both sides.
"This is."
Upon seeing the scene behind the gate, Linda raised an eyebrow, recalling the monster that had caused the White Dove Adventure Team's defeat a month ago.
This is an underground lava cave.
The most striking feature is a wide river of lava, with bubbles constantly rising from the viscous red liquid, like a boiling oil pan.
If you accidentally fall in, you'll probably be badly injured, if not killed.
"Be careful not to get too close to the lava river, or you might get swept in!"
Linda called out a reminder.
Boom, boom.
A gigantic creature was swimming in the lava river, rapidly approaching the Phoenix Flower Squad.
"Anna!"
"clear!"
Anna slammed her round shield into the ground and shouted, "Blood Guardian!"
They used their own blood to create a protective shield with a diameter of ten meters!
A semi-transparent dome, tinged with a faint blood-red hue, covered the Phoenix Tail Flower group.
Linda murmured, "Guardian spirit, grant me the power to withstand all, the Azure Shield!"
Beams of green light fell upon the team members.
"Continued healing."
Linda then gave the front-row main players continued treatment.
Just as they finished doing all that, a huge shadow leaped out of the lava river.
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
The monster revealed its true form.
A giant python, twenty meters long, with four short legs!
It had hard red scales all over its body, its ferocious and terrifying snake eyes stared at everyone, and its blood-red mouth spewed out foul-smelling hot air.
The already unbearably hot cave became even more unbearable.
Even though Linda and the others had gunpowder to protect them, they were still drenched in sweat, as if they had taken a bath.
The giant python hissed and its thick tail slammed down on the crowd!
It was like a collapsing giant pillar, blocking out the sky and the intense hot wind made it impossible for Linda and the others to open their eyes.
Boom!
The earth trembled, and the fiery red stalactites on the cave ceiling broke off with a crash, falling down like rain.
With a single strike, Anna's protective shield was riddled with cracks!
Linda stared sharply at the monster and quickly thought: Four-legged Flame Python, level 39, Epic 4-star, with over a million HP.
In addition, the four-legged fire python has a characteristic called "damage reflection," which means that a certain percentage of damage will be reflected back with each attack by the adventurer.
Ebernar and his companions were exhausted from the counter-attacks, barely managing to defeat the Four-Legged Flame Python, but they lacked the stamina to conquer other challenges.
To put it bluntly, if Linda had used his Death Demon Heart Slash on the Four-Legged Flame Python, he would have been the one to die.
"Everyone, move out!"
At Linda's command,
Monica and Tasia in the back row, their faces grim, aimed their weapons at the Flame Serpent and unleashed [Stone Spear] and [Swift Shot].
"Venom Orb!"
"Demon Wolf Fist!"
Linda and Lulu shot out.
In the shadows, Kaphni gripped two short swords, searching for an opening in the four-legged fire python.
The group showed no mercy and launched a full-scale attack!
On the screen, a series of suggestions floated by:
[What's going on? With the White Dove Adventurers' experience as a precedent, how dare they fight like this?]
[Monica, will my Monica be killed by the rebound?]
[Everyone, calm down. Linda must have a reason for doing this!]
Linda and the others unleashed a barrage of attacks, shattering the scales of the four-legged fire python and causing it to emit painful cries.
At the same time, dazzling crimson lights appeared, and a certain proportion of the damage received was returned to the Phoenix Tail Flower Squad.
The first to be damaged were the verdant shields on Linda and the others' bodies.
With Linda's current high health bonus, the thickness of the Emerald Shield has become astonishing.
Even a greatsword warrior like Lia, who is quite resilient, only has a little over 10,000 HP.
It's like everyone is carrying a Leah on their back!
The damage reflection ratio of the Four-Legged Flame Serpent is not very high, and it will only greatly limit squishy classes and burst skills.
Like Linda's Phoenix Flower Squad, each member is equipped with an Emerald Shield and only uses minor skills to attack.
It can almost completely ignore the damage reflection from the four-legged fire python.
"Hiss!"
The four-legged fiery python lunged at the pale blue figure, but Lulu's sharp combat instincts allowed her to easily dodge with a sidestep. Sensing that this werewolf was difficult to deal with, the fiery python glared fiercely behind the phoenix-tail flower.
There was a silver-haired, brown-skinned maid and a girl with a broad forehead covered in sweat.
When the Flame Python looked at the latter, the latter's face showed horror and his body trembled.
A target was instantly identified!
The python's body swam like a rolling river.
Realizing that the Flame Serpent's target was Monica, Linda's heart tightened, and she stretched out her right hand, summoning a green magic circle.
Rare skill, Forest Dragon's Wrathful Fang!
However, due to the extremely hot environment, the wooden dragon formed by the vines spontaneously combusted, greatly reducing its power.
The four-legged fire python sensed the attack from behind, its eyes revealing a human-like irony.
