Lumi raised her head with difficulty.

What caught her eye was Pastor Gene who was chopped in half.

The pastor who always liked to tell some brain-breaking jokes now fell in the cold rain.

Until he died of blood loss, he continued to cast the priest's blessing and healing spells for them.

"I saw hell."

She turned her head again.

On the cliff nearby, the Paladin Ian, whose body was as big as a hill, was embedded in the cliff.

The protruding rocks pierced his cracked armor, his flesh and blood merged with the rocks of the cliff, and the flowing blood dyed the wall red.

In order to prevent the Demon King's greatsword from hurting those in the back row, he took on several attacks that were beyond the normal level of a legend.

The armor that he took so careful care of on a daily basis was shattered, and he eventually died of exhaustion after blocking a tide of attacks, and was directly embedded into the wall by the Demon King.

"I saw hell."

She looked at the earth-shaking battlefield in the front.

The monk Greff, who had always been known for his extraordinary martial arts skills, used his life to deliver a punch as bright as the scorching sun, and finally succeeded in tearing apart the enemy's armor.

He who created this gap for attack was instantly torn into pieces by the rain-like air blades, and his upper body instantly evaporated and turned into a bloody mist.

"I saw hell!"

She looked at the blood spreading in the shadows in pain.

"Haisen..."

The wanderer in the shadows is left with only his breath, like a candle in the wind.

"Diana..."

Diana beside him had her clothes stained with blood.

Finally she looked down at herself.

A finely patterned spear pierced through her body, pinning her to the ground.

She tasted rust, spreading in her mouth.

Looking at the spear that was obviously made by a skilled craftsman, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

This shouldn't be a weapon that appears in a dungeon.

Even if the Demon King is given another hundred years, such a weapon will never appear in the dungeon.

But by the time I realized this, it was too late.

Now, she is in hell.

"Diana, take Lumi and Hessen Bansha away."

In the rushing hot wind, she saw that every sword swung by the contemporary brave Max would eliminate all obstacles blocking his way.

But the hideous demon shadow behind the hurricane didn't care at all. The dirty spiritual light made her feel suffocated.

With a bang.

On the holy mark left by the monk Greif, an unstoppable sword pierced through the body of the demon king Herme.

What kind of alien is that!

He was filled with a filthy blessing that shouldn't exist in this world.

The power of the four gods blended in him, turning into unparalleled strength.

Even the proud Max could only barely compete with him.

And...the sun is setting visibly with the naked eye.

With a sound of wow.

She heard a burst of vomiting blood beside her.

Diana's eyes were dazed as she grasped the staff again.

"O star-spirits that fill the astral world! Please respond to the ancient contract and open the door to the other side!"

With the glory of Qiwen, the door to the way home opened.

She endured the pain and pulled out the spear that pierced her lower abdomen, and struggled to drag the unconscious Heisen Bansha to Diana, who was unable to stand up.

She looked up and yelled at the top of her lungs, "Max!"

She wanted to ask Max to go with them.

But he didn't respond.

But the sharp sword in his hand tore through the hurricane again, and he fought with the Demon King Hermo like a wild beast.

"It's time to say goodbye, Lumi."

She only had time to hear these words before the teleportation deed sent them back to the Star Continent.

This moment.

The world is like a prison.

…

"Ms. Lumi~"

She was still immersed in her memories.

"Lady Lumi, Lady Lumi, I can sense the location of His Highness Louis."

Lumi suddenly came to her senses.

She looked at William beside her in confusion, and after a long while she said slowly, "Which direction?"

William pointed to a corner of the sky and said, "I can sense that His Royal Highness Louis's one-time protection of [Immune to All Damage] is about to be activated. I need to go over there first."

Lumi nodded and said, "Okay, then you go first, I'll catch up soon."

William jumped off the horse, threw the horse card back to Lumi, activated the skill [Iron Guard is Here], and began to leap to Louis' side.

Lumi also put the horse back into the horse card and started the high-speed flight mode.

"Strange, when did I become so sentimental?"

"It is said that the curse of the Shadowfallen Underworld can lead people to inner depravity. I didn't expect that the impact would still be significant at my level."

But when Lumi raised her head and looked at William, a hint of doubt flashed across her face.

So strange.

It's really strange.

Logically speaking, William should be affected more than her.

If she wasn't worried that the boy couldn't hold on, she could have found a way to kill the attacker first, and then find a way to open the gate to the Shadow Underworld.

She remembered that Princess Beatrice had also been to the Shadowless Underworld in her early years.

It seems that he has mastered some method of freely entering and exiting the Shadowless Underworld.

As a result, she could only rush in and pull this guy out.

But she never expected that this guy seemed to be less affected than her.

As his thoughts came to an end, William's figure had disappeared from here.

Without thinking any more, she sped up and rushed in the direction William pointed.

…

Let me explain this on two sides.

On the other side, the battle between Louis and his companions had entered a stalemate.

Clang! With a roar, a dirty flying knife collided with Louis's sword.

The light of the Sin Dragon Armor flickering on Louis' skin became deeper.

With the power of the dragon, Louis blocked the attack.

"Let's go, don't fight him on the plain, let's go to the forest."

If it is just the most common model level, maybe there is still a chance to fight hard.

But Louis understood at the moment of collision with the opponent that this man's martial arts skills were honed through thousands of trials and tribulations.

To put it bluntly, although the martial arts he is using now are limited, once he makes a move, the sophistication of his martial arts is almost approaching that of Instructor Kino.

Merlin, who was standing by with a flash of inspiration, exclaimed in amazement:

"This War Ghost has quite a talent! He has already made his own way on the path of the Nine Swords."

Clang! Another loud bang.

Louis and Alice teamed up to stop Roger who was trying to rush to Olivia.

Little Swan's mental power instantly extended to the two front-row melee fighters.

A voice sounded in their hearts:

"Louis, Alice, the metamagic feat has been restored."

The two of them worked together to push Rogge away.

Although they were not telepathically connected, the two had already fought many times as adventurers during this period.

In an instant, he realized that Little Swan's newly restored super magic expertise could completely catch the opponent off guard.

So they both shouted:

The next moment, Louis rushed to the side of the little swan, and Alice rushed to the side of Grace, picked them up and rushed into the jungle.

When the little swan was picked up by Louis, he had already sent a message to him:

"Filled, the selected spell is cast silently. My magic power can support a large fireball."

Metamagic Feats: Silent Spells.

Pay the cost of casting a spell slot of +2 levels of spell level, and release magic instantly.

Fireball is a 3rd-level evocation spell.

In other words, the little swan has to pay a price equivalent to that of a 5th-level spell, without the need to chant any incantations and without showing any strange visions, and can be launched at any time once the magic is ready.

Although it is weaker than instant spells.

However, the metamagic feat of instant spell casting requires +4 spell slots.

This means that a 3rd level fireball spell requires the cost of a 7th level spell.

Little Swan's current level is not enough to unlock the 7th level spell slot.

Casting the spell silently is the best solution she can choose at the moment.

"Have Grace get ready and take action after you. Alice and I will cooperate with you."

He just felt goosebumps all over his body because of Rogge who was approaching from behind.

Although he didn't know why the Emperor in Heaven didn't stop all this, he was fortunate that Louis and his team were well-equipped than their peers.

If someone else were to take over, the situation would probably collapse.

LV10 Alice is a Sword of Heaven's Punishment with the style of an agile warrior. Her well-trained body can barely withstand two or three attacks from Rogue, and she even has a chance to launch a counterattack. Under normal circumstances, a LV8 mage will be shattered with just one touch against Rogue. The suppression of the exemplary level on LV8 is too high. Under normal circumstances, the mage will really be beheaded with one sword.

——Except the little swan.

After she lifted the curse, she was able to inject more magic power into the spell, forcing it to exert power beyond its limit, which was equivalent to having a super magic feat of [Spell Enhancement].

This allowed her to actually harm Rogue by using her metamagic feat, Silent Spell.

Her exclusive magic [Existence Weakness] provides Grace, who appears to be a LV1 professional but possesses the equivalent of a true damage spell, with the possibility of launching an attack.

The most important thing is that she didn't know how she interrupted Rogue's [Time Stop] martial art.

It can be said that this allows them to avoid being killed instantly by the time-stop ability.

In addition, with the Sin Dragon Armor and Succubus Physique, it is equivalent to him having the triple panel blessing of professional panel + dragon panel + succubus panel.

Although every time I collide head-on, I feel my muscles groaning.

But... the succubus's physique can barely drag this body to fight beyond its limits.

Even Merlin, who was flying nearby, couldn't help but sigh:

"Your companions are of very high quality."

"No one had a freezing reaction, not even the weakest girl (Grace)"

Most people or animals will have a freezing reaction.

For example, a moose suddenly jumped down from the mountain late at night and hit the suddenly flashing high beam of a vehicle.

Even though he noticed the car approaching, he was unable to avoid it and just stood there in a daze.

This is the freezing reaction.

If a person's brain suddenly receives a large amount of information feedback in a short period of time, it will go into standby mode, let alone that of animals.

Four persons are available.

No one has this situation.

But Louis is now so mad that he wants to curse.

"Emperor Lao Deng, save save save save..."

He began to suspect that it was because he directly called his father-in-law "Lao Deng" that his father-in-law was angry and was tempering him.

But if Lao Deng doesn't lend a hand, they're afraid they're going to be in real trouble.

Clang! There was another burst of iron hammering sounds.

Louis treated the sword as a knife and chopped it down hard, causing Rogge's body to tremble slightly.

He took advantage of the recoil and rolled into the grass holding the little swan.

"Olivia, what did you do? Why is he biting you so hard?"

Little Swan retorted unconvincedly: "You ask me how I know? And how do you know that the other party is looking for me and not you?"

Then the next second, Rogue's zombie rushed over and directly crashed into a huge green fireball.

With a bang, he was blown away by the explosion of the fireball.

The little swan snorted and said:

"I knew you wanted to attack us while we were talking."

Yes.

Louis and Cygnet are both bad species.

They even had a tacit understanding of pretending to chat and lured Roger into attacking them.

This silent fireball, which had been prepared for a long time, made Rogue roar in pain.

"Ludlson"

Amid the raging flames, a shrill voice was heard.

"What are you yelling about?!"

Louis cursed.

Then his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

It just so happened that he and the little swan were now some distance apart.

At this moment, Rogge happened to raise his head, and his bloodshot eyes looked at Louis dimly, with murderous intent that seemed to converge into an icy blade.

Merlin said curiously: "Are you sure this guy is going after that little girl (Olivia)?"

"I've been wanting to say this since a while ago. Does this war ghost seem to be aiming at you?"

The corner of Louis' mouth twitched slightly.

My instinct is to deny it.

He and Roger didn't know each other, let alone have any grudge against each other.

Even if he was related to the Rudelson organization, he used the identity of Caesar.

In order to make it easier to kill the Fallen Shadow Beauty Snake, he had already taken off his full body armor.

What does the feud between Caesar and Rudelson's organization have to do with me, Louis? But he didn't have the extra time to argue.

Because he found that Rogge rushed towards him again.

"Fuck, you're not really here to see me, are you?"

He stabbed with his sword without hesitation.

Suddenly.

A clear sound of hammering iron was heard.

The hunting sense he had been maintaining suddenly went crazy.

The next moment, to his astonishment, the sword from the broken-legged adventurer Titch Rausing made an unbearable sound.

In Louis' confused eyes.

It broke with a snap.

“I’m going to die, I’m going to die, I’m going to die!”

"Tiki's sword is certainly a good weapon, but it is below paragon grade."

"In a battle of this level, it has already reached its limit to last until now."

"William, help, help, help..."

Suddenly.

With a bang.

Rogge, who was approaching Louis, was instantly trampled into the mud by William who fell from the sky.

William's somewhat honest voice came.

"I seemed to hear His Highness calling my name."

"Shout! William, I'll make you faint 100 times in today's battle!"

As he said this, William had already raised his huge shield, and a blue energy gathered on the shield.

Minotaur Charge!

With a bang.

William was like a roaring buffalo, he used his shield to support Rogue and charged forward against the ground.

Wherever it passed, soil and wood splashed.

"Your Highness, could it be that this wave of heroes has arrived?"
