The twisted green leaves rolling in the sky melted into a ball, continuously scattering onto the fleshy earth, completely filling the entire space.
This place is the twenty-ninth level of the Demon Rift.
【Verdant Path】
Sharp, twisted, withered trees sprouted from the green, fleshy earth, standing densely packed together.
The dead tree branches forked out, like the arms of a mummified corpse.
The demi-humans, clad in bone armor, marched forward in a single file.
Each demi-human held a sharp blade in their hand, their eyes firm yet calm.
They have already traversed many levels and fought against all sorts of ferocious monsters.
Even though the Adventurers' Guild has cleared out many of the monsters at the bottom, all sorts of strange monsters continue to spawn in the rifts.
Even though his armor was stained with purple blood, and strange liquid dripped from his blade,
However, no one in the team seemed tired as a result.
His eyes were bright and full of energy.
In less than a day, this demi-human team had already explored the twenty-ninth level of the monster rift.
The deeper you explore, the more powerful the monsters you encounter become.
In the initial stages, only low-level monsters will spawn, which are like weeds in front of well-equipped demi-human teams and are easy to deal with.
But the closer you get to the thirtieth floor, the stronger the monsters become.
Furthermore, their strength has even reached the third order.
This place is like a tireless monster-generating machine.
Suddenly, more than a dozen powerful monsters burst forth from beneath the fleshy ground.
They brandished sharp claws with both hands, and spat out mouthparts two or three meters long, staring at the demi-humans in front of them.
The enormous bodies looked particularly strange under the overwhelming green light, making it impossible to discern their original colors.
Dragging its slug-like half-body, it slowly approached the demi-humans.
As the monsters drew closer, the demi-humans exchanged glances, and the long, thin line dispersed, forming a circular formation resembling two layers.
They held sharp blades horizontally in front of them, a cold glint flashing in their eyes.
The monsters extended their mouthparts, attempting to pierce the demi-human's chest.
But when the crisis arrived, the inner layer of demi-humans swung their blades forward, instantly severing the long, thin mouthparts.
Dozens of monsters, in pain, turned blood red in their eyes, retracted their mouthparts dripping with green blood, raised their claws, and quickly twisted their bodies, bypassing the dense thicket of dead trees, and attacked the group.
The outer layer of demi-humans flipped over, and with a flick of their wrists, the blades severed the tendons and bones of one side of the blade before piercing the nape of the necks of the attacking monsters.
The remaining demi-humans seized the opportunity, intercepted the monster's attack, and quickly bent down to stab into the monster's chest.
With a sudden downward yank from both sides, a third-tier monster was instantly torn in two!
Green blood gushed out, staining the already lush green ground somewhat black.
In the blink of an eye, all the monsters were eliminated.
They had experienced countless encounters like this.
They were already extremely skilled at dealing with monsters, and their experience was far more than before.
Gwen and Elsa were not involved.
Even a third-tier monster was far too easy for the two of them.
Even against a dozen or so monsters, a single strike is enough.
If the two of them were to take action, the team would not encounter any battles that could pose a challenge.
In fact, it's not helpful for training.
Gwen stayed close to Aurelion's side.
She would only intervene in an emergency to ensure the princess's safety.
After defeating the monsters, the team continued forward and soon stood before the stairs leading to the thirtieth floor.
Beyond the stairs lies the thirtieth level of the Monster Rift.
That is, the end of the verdant, empty path.
[The Dark Green Cage]
Before the gate of the staircase, the withered trees bursting from the ground became even more twisted and absurd.
Sorrowful expressions were embedded in the withered wood, emanating a faint glow.
The demi-humans stood still, awaiting Gwen's instructions.
After passing the thirtieth floor, you will reach the thirty-first floor and enter the lower level of the abyss.
The monsters will become more powerful, and you may even encounter fourth-tier monsters.
Even though the demi-human team was equipped with very powerful equipment and had plenty of combat experience.
However, dealing with terrifying fourth-tier monsters would be extremely difficult.
Therefore, their mission is to enter the thirtieth floor and explore to the end of that floor.
They will not enter the thirty-first floor.
The group formed a long line, preparing to continue deeper into the area.
Suddenly, Koko, who was fast asleep on the cloud, sneezed, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
A chill ran from the soles of my feet throughout my entire body.
Aurelian noticed that Kokot seemed a little uncomfortable and asked him with concern:
“Congressman Yad, are you feeling unwell?”
Although Kokot is no longer a member of the Mage Council, those who know her identity still respectfully address her as 'Councilor Yad'.
Cocot sat up, blinking groggily.
"It feels a bit strange."
"It felt strange, like my dad fighting with my dad."
Aurelion: "?"
As is well known, elves do not have parents.
Therefore, Aurelion found it difficult to understand the very abstract description of Kokot.
