Chapter 119: The tyrant is not right

Salt Long left the temple and continued on his arduous cultivation journey.

Lu Yao, on the other hand, didn’t have much time to pay attention to this strange follower.

Because next, he was going to start a major project.

The third exploration of the “Black Abyss”.

This time, the scale far exceeded the past, and the target was the first layer’s boss: the Tyrant.

Facing an enemy known as a demigod, Lu Yao dared not be negligent and mobilized all of his elite forces.

The Blood Knight and the Deep Sea Lord remained the main forces.

Phileas would also control the “Skeleton King” to participate in the battle.

The Snowman accompanied them.

This time, Isabella would also directly participate in the battle.

With the “Nature Staff,” her HP underwent a qualitative change, and her 8000+ HP was enough to deal with dangerous situations inside.

Isabella’s “Sword of the Forest” was also an essential buff for the entire team, indispensable.

After gaining the ability to fly, she became more agile, which helped in exploring the map information in the abyss.

Lastly, there was the god, White God.

Although its combat power was average, it could enhance the team’s status. The miracle “Intimidation” was indeed a combat miracle.

With such a luxurious lineup, Lu Yao had the confidence to deal with the demigod.

Everyone entered the golden gate.

The symbol of the “Black Abyss, First Layer” appeared on the screen.

Lu Yao was no longer unfamiliar with the inside.

The entire abyss world presented a gloomy and cold color, completely different from the outside. The ghouls on the periphery scattered in fear as soon as they saw the Blood Knight.

This time, Lu Yao showed no mercy and had the team thoroughly clear the surrounding monsters to avoid being pulled back and falling into a disadvantageous situation during retreat.

The six-person team cleared the way, annihilating all the ghouls and corpse hunters along the way. The intensity of the whole process was moderate, like a warm-up before a big battle.

Soon, they arrived at the Birdcage Icefield, where the snowmen were imprisoned.

Moving forward, they would enter the territory of the Tyrant, the Mirror Country.

To Lu Yao’s surprise, the so-called Mirror Country was not a vast territory.

There was only a circular square made of white marble ahead. On the square, there was a row of damaged stone pillars, resembling a destroyed ancient temple.

The ground of the square was inserted with pieces of mirrors, most of which were also damaged.

In the center of the temple ruins, there was a cracked marble throne.

The cracks in the throne were filled with blood, and the dried scabs barely held it together, preventing it from falling apart.

The Blood Knight was the first to step into the square.

As soon as he arrived, every mirror on the ground emitted a faint white light.

Soldiers walked out of the mirrors.

These soldiers wore square silver masks and shiny armor, completely silver from head to toe. They all held square shields and spears, quickly forming battle formations and advancing towards the intruders.

Lu Yao clicked on one of the soldiers.

…

[Guardian of the Mirror Country, LV40]

HP: 1400/1400

MP: 300/300

Damage: 40

Defense: 35

Speed: 13

[Indestructible]

Has special resistance against ranged damage.

[Grouping]

When gathered together, their combat power becomes stronger. The more there are, the greater the amplification.

[Spirit Body]

Has special resistance against normal damage, but takes double damage from spells.

…

Half of the screen was filled with the formation of the guards, charging towards the six-person team.

However, their damage values were not high. Even with the “Grouping” providing some enhancement, they couldn’t break through the defense line formed by the Blood Knight, Deep Sea Lord, and Skeleton King, who all had defense values over 100.

Both sides engaged in a fierce battle.

Isabella equipped each member of the team with the “Sword of the Forest” one by one. She also used her flying ability to deal with some peripheral guards.

The Deep Sea Lord transformed into a furious giant starfish, wildly lashing out with its huge limbs, knocking down the guards and preventing them from passing by.

Phileas had the simplest operation. It controlled the Skeleton King to maintain a spherical form, moving left and right to attract aggro, enduring attacks with the King’s solid defense.

The most outstanding one was still the cold and tough Blood Knight.

As long as he was on the battlefield, the Blood Knight Neville was like a firefly in the dark, incredibly distinct.

His fierce and aggressive posture of wielding a large sword without any defense, his style of easily taking on ten opponents, and the happy smile on his face made it hard for people to look away.

The Blood Knight was a pure and simple apostle. If you asked him to kill, he would be happy to do so.

His killing power was on a different level from the others.

Neville activated “Enchantment,” further enhancing his damage ability and adding spell damage.

This happened to counter the “Spirit Body.”

He could easily take down a guard with a few strikes.

Even with his strength of one against a hundred, the Blood Knight’s footsteps remained steady, maintaining formation with the other apostles.

Lu Yao felt reassured.

The Blood Knight on the battlefield was a perfect warrior.

He followed orders without retreating, possessing an innate battlefield intuition.

Soon, hundreds of guards from the Mirror Country were killed, their bodies shattered. They turned into pieces of broken mirrors, falling to the ground and dissipating.

Lu Yao frowned as he watched.

Were the guards summoned creatures?

At this moment, the entire marble square suddenly began to tremble, causing the screen to shake as well.

The simulator reminded him.

“The Tyrant awakens from its slumber.”

On the blood throne in the center of the temple ruins, a figure with one hand supporting its chin slowly appeared.

As the figure appeared, the tremors throughout the first layer gradually subsided.

After Lu Yao saw the other party’s appearance clearly, he was momentarily stunned.

The Tyrant was different from what he had imagined.The boss of the first level bore the title of “Tyrant”. Her head was a single round piece of white bone, with two antlers growing from it, resembling the upper jaws of an elm-shaped insect. Two eye holes were visible on the bone face, revealing a pair of crimson eyes.

The Tyrant wore a fluffy fur collar around her neck and a tattered red robe. Her slender body was completely wrapped in bandages, like a resurrected mummy queen.

Surprisingly, it was a female character.

Her weapon was a cone-shaped sword, also made of white bone, which she held in one hand and stuck into the ground.

Facing the outsiders, a dialogue box appeared above the Tyrant’s head.

“Foreigners, how did you get in?”

She was very calm, even initiating a conversation.

“Answer me, what has the outside world become? That bitch of a Forest Witch, no, she should be called the Forest Goddess now, has she fallen?”

Lu Yao sensed a whiff of gunpowder.

“Huh?”

The Tyrant slowly turned her head, looking at the floating Isabella.

“So you were here all along? There’s something off about your scent…”

As if she had thought of something, a laughing emoji appeared above her head.

“So you’re dead, good, very good.”

“Hahahaha!”

“Now you’ve left a body behind, are you trying to find a way to resurrect? What a beautiful dream you’re having.”

“Today, let me put an end to your fantasy, Isabella Seroli, my dear! Sister!”

The Tyrant transformed into a white shadow, charging straight at Isabella.
