Even though everyone here wasn’t weak, those present received a significant impact from the terrifying killing intent’s invasion!
Yang Xuerou, Luo Xingyao, and the rest all turned a few hints paler.
Meanwhile, Link’s countenance remained peaceful. Inside his deep and profound eyes were total calmness. Having lived two lifetimes as a human, his mind had long become extremely steady. Moreover, with the title of [Fearless Pathfinder], Link was immune to the majority of mental impacts!
A blood-red whirlpool appeared before the party! Accompanying that was also extremely manic laughter. “This is the hunting ground of the strong; the souls of cowards and the weak will be torn into pieces!”
The laughter echoed, pushing one toward madness.
Saiya gently touched the beautiful hair on her temples and asked softly, “Master, the team dungeon, Killing Purgatory, is already open. Do you want to enter the dungeon?”
Link nodded lightly.
Saiya added, “The current dungeon has three levels of difficulty to select from—[Average], [Difficult], and [Hell]. The higher the difficulty level, the more dangerous the dungeon is. If you die in the dungeon, you will not lose your life. You will suffer severe mental trauma instead. However, the gains you receive will also be greater if you successfully clear a mode of greater difficulty.”
Link did not hesitate in the slightest and said, “Hell.”
He soon stepped into the blood-red whirlpool.
Yang Xuerou and company closely followed behind Link with determined gazes.
The Undead army’s siege was near; nobody would give up this final chance to strengthen themselves!
For this time’s dungeon, Link only brought Angel Yuna with him. Star Moon and God Devourer Ant had both stayed behind in the city to guard against any unexpected events.
After all, the greatest danger in the apocalyptic wasn’t just ferocious monsters. There were also humans with malicious hearts.
The party’s figures vanished.
When they appeared again, they had arrived at an entirely different world.
[Welcome to the Killing Purgatory! This is the colosseum of the universe, and only the strongest can survive!]
[Current quest: Kill all enemies. 6/6]
Two notifications flashed through everyone’s mind.
At the same time, the charred ground, warped trees, and thick fog came into sight, making one stifled in their heart.
“People are here…”
“Finally, there are people who’ve come!”
“Rip them apart!”
“Swallow their blood, flesh… and fresh souls!”
…
Unsettling strange mutters flooded everyone’s ears. However, other than the fog-like mist before everyone’s eyes, they did not see the enemies’ figures at all.
“Yuna,” Link called out.
Six-winged Holy Angel Yuna immediately understood what Link wanted. Her pure-white wings lightly flapped as the staff in her hand danced.
Gold-colored waves rippled outwards, and the mist—which had obstructed everyone’s line of sight—was continuously dispelled by the holy rays of light.
Everyone’s field of vision instantly became wide.
At the mountain peak in the distance, three figures watched the party from a towering height, their eyes filled with brutal killing intent!
These three figures were human-like creatures. But they all seemed to have repulsive appearances, and they radiated frightening and profane auras.
One of them was a centaur. This was a race that contained a divine bloodline. These half-human, half-horse creatures were proficient in archery; they were born cavalrymen.
But the centaur that appeared before the party was extremely twisted and insane! The human portion of its body had blood-red eyes completely covering it like pustules. The horse portion had extra hideous dog heads on either side of the body. Each dog head exposed long teeth, making the centaur look like a sinister monster that was sewn together.
The centaur carried a huge bone bow on his back, clearly an archer.
There was another humanoid monster, but it had a grotesque pig head. Its eyes were scarlet red, and multiple layers of fangs grew densely in its mouth. Presently, there was even foul-smelling drool that continuously flowed from the pig’s mouth!
Its massive body was like a mountain of flesh. It was also holding a large executioner’s sword in hand. The covetous gaze—directed at the party—almost made the humanoid pig look like it wanted to skin and eat them alive.
The last one was a very thin, goblin-like creature. The hair on the top of its head was sparse, with many bone spurs all over it. It was currently extending its purplish-black tongue, licking its sharp claws. It seemed like it was doing some kind of preparation before a meal.
Notifications sounded in everyone’s minds.
[Fallen Centaur]
Name: Odyss
Profession: Centaur Archer (Diamond-grade)
Level: Stage Four, Level 5 (Set according to adventurer’s level!)
Introduction: Odyss was originally an elite warrior of the Centaur race. Due to the invasion of an abyss-like force, he gradually degenerated. He has been expelled from his clan, completely falling into the darkness. He only has slaughter and bloodlust in his eyes!
[Fallen Butcher]
Name: Colby
Profession: Bloodthirsty Butcher (Gold-grade)
Level: Stage Four, Level 8 (Set according to adventurer’s level!)
Introduction: Colby was originally a butcher. He was captured during a war. He was then treated as a lab rat and had a taboo experiment—which concerned his life—conducted on him. Nobody knows about the experiment’s process. All people know is that a terrifying pig monster massacred the entire test facility and treated those broken corpses as food…
[Fallen Goblin]
Name: Seus
Profession: Goblin Assassin (Gold-grade)
Level: Stage Four, Level 6 (Set according to adventurer’s level!)
Introduction: Seus was a cunning goblin that people spurned. He pilfered and was greedy yet crafty. However, while one of his robberies allowed him to obtain a treasure that he shouldn’t have gotten, he also suffered a dreadful curse. This made him even more cunning and dangerous…
…
The three monsters’ information flashed through everyone’s minds, making the party look even more somber.
They were all Stage Four monsters! These three figures were equivalent to humanity’s current top powerhouses! Also, even a Stage Four human powerhouse might not be able to counter a monster of the same level!
Most importantly, these three weren’t all of their enemies! This was a team dungeon; the number of monsters corresponded with the number of people who entered. Hence, there were still three monsters that had yet to appear.
Unknown danger, more often than not, made one feel even more fearful!
Luo Xinghe gripped his longsword tightly, and some hints of nervousness showed on his face. “Lord, these monsters seem very unusual!”
Link maintained an indifferent countenance. “There are still three monsters that have not appeared. Be alert. The hunt begins now.”
As his words fell, Link’s figure swept forward. Qiao Ruowei and others also charged toward the mountain peak with their weapons tightly gripped.
On the mountain, the butcher with a pig head came pouncing toward the crowd with the executioner’s sword in hand. His eyes were blood-red.
The hideous centaur archer also brought out that pitch-black bone bow. A streak of red light shot out from his bow, wrapped in a putrid evil aura.
Meanwhile, the bony goblin turned into a shadow and vanished. Only his sharp laughter sounded repeatedly.
“Eat them!”
“Good quality… food!”
…
Boom!
A roar instantly exploded!
A Blood Ray Arrow was directly crushed by Link using his longsword, which caused a piercing explosion!
Blood Ray Arrows continued to be shot out from the centaur’s bone bow!
Yang Xuerou swung her staff, placing a buff aura on everyone.
Luo Xingyao softly bit her lips as she let out a delicate cry. “Seven Stars Broken Moon!”
The bow was drawn to a full moon, and a mirage of the Big Dipper emerged. The resplendent starlight then turned into arrows, shining with boundless radiance as they shot toward the centaur!
