Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1205 - 776: Sain, I’ll Fuck Your Immortal! (Part 2)

In the next moment, the Starfire Knights all turned red, literally red-hot, as a wave of fiery energy exploded from their bodies.

"Brothers, we must take down Sick Village and show her!"

"Damn it, we've never endured such humiliation!"

"Let him see our might!"

Each of the Starfire Knights and soldiers was passionately stirred up.

"That's right, just like that, put your energy into it!" Luluwo pumped her fist to cheer them on, utterly unaware of how "energizing" her remarks had been.

"...Well, let's keep it like this, it seems quite effective."

Tami, watching from the sidelines, shook her head.

The passionate Starfire Knights took a short rest at the bonfire and then proceeded bravely.

Since the large waterwheel leading back to the upper level had collapsed, their only option was to continue exploring downward, currently situated in the middle level, they set their exploratory target as finding the path leading to the lower level.

The interior of Sick Village on the middle level was exceedingly complex, practically a natural maze, just walking through was enough to lead astray, and on top of that, Gong Qiying had set some clever traps.

"Aaaaaah!"

A soldier screamed as they fell, whether they would drop to the lower level or directly fall into the cesspool at the bottom was not a good thing; imagining the foul cesspool's appearance...

The soldier unexpectedly conquered their fear of high-altitude falls, gritting their teeth to seal their mouth, appearing like an iron-blooded tough figure.

At this moment, two icy cold chains wrapped around her ankles, finally halting the downward trend.

The soldier hung upside down mid-air, facing the monsters who had run over upon hearing her scream, intending to attack her mercilessly like a fallen prey.

The scene was exceptionally chilling.

"Roar!"

A flame-spitting dog, as if skinned, raised its head and sprayed poisonous fire at her, but fortunately, Luluwo quickly pulled the chain and swiftly retrieved her.

"Thanks, thank you..."

The soldier sat on the ground, still shaken, her chest heaving violently due to heavy breathing, yet amidst her panic, a question mark slowly formed above her head:

How did I fall down?

Looking towards the direction she originally walked, the soldier suddenly turned red-hot.

The path she had taken appeared to be constructed from ordinary logs.

However, in reality, it was a movable trap door!

An entire plank supported solely by the central cylindrical wooden piece, once stepped on either side, immediately triggers the trap, causing one to fall!

This board seemed to be magically guided; even after someone fell, it would automatically open and close, coupled with the board's harmony with the surroundings, and people's restricted vision in the dark, it's easy to fall for it.

In any case, upon closer inspection, the entire Sick Village was constructed using nearly identical-looking wood, setting traps at random spots was a life or death situation for adventurers.

Such an environment was simply a delight for the designer.

"Damn it, Sain!"

The appearance of this trap door seemed like an omen, as in the subsequent journey, people frequently encountered unexpected scenarios.

Like the aged wooden boards that collapse upon being stepped on, possibly causing one to plummet directly downward, thankfully, Luluwo's rapid response allowed her to use chains to catch the falling person, otherwise, casualties would have occurred just in the process of exploring.

Despite the terrain being so treacherous, the monsters still did not lag behind in strength expectations, with strength levels beginning to climb steadily.

Feeble animated corpses holding long spears would thrust the spears up from beneath the floor, aiming for the passing person's rear.

Huge animated corpses would descend from the sky with a zero-landing score, shattering bridges.

Wherever there were oil barrels, flammable and explosive flame-spitting dogs would naturally leap out.

And the most nauseating thing, those blowguns hidden in the shadows, sneakily firing poison darts at people!

"Luckily, I had the foresight to ensure everyone wore sufficiently thick armor."

When she first discovered the blowguns lurking in a dark narrow space, Luluwo showed a disdainful smile, demonstrating her heavily armed gear to the foe.

"Clang!"

A poison dart struck her armor's surface, producing a pathetic snapping sound, making her feel quite pleased.

Back in the Painting World, she had been tormented enough by this scoundrel's poison darts, now it was finally time for her revenge!

Just as she conceived this notion, she saw the blowgun's tube glow, though uncertain of its effect, it was undoubtedly the light of magic activating.

"Whoosh!"

A green light flashed from the blowgun, Luluwo immediately felt something wet against her calf, she looked down...

This was a groove-lined armor-piercing magic poison dart.

Even though the arrow's lethality was nearly neutralized by the armor's layers, leaving just unstable poison liquid barely resembling an arrow, it still adhered to her leg.

"Damn it!"

Instantly frightened, she gobbled a Purple Poison Moss Ball!

After all, the blowgun's poison darts were not ordinary toxins, they bore the dreaded [Highly Poisonous]! Stripping vitality faster than Fudolin could eat!

What, the blowguns have also upgraded!?

Not only had their power evolved, but their numbers had also expanded to match the emergence of new-era adventurers, even sporting autonomous tracking.

If they provoked a blowgun but didn't eliminate it, after running a distance and resting for a bit, they'd likely be caught up by it, naturally shot from unexpected angles, struck by poison darts in a shocking chill.

The only solace might be that a single poison dart was insufficient to directly impose the High Poison status, needing at least three or four hits, which was a small comfort amidst misfortune.

At this moment, Luluwo's team was sprinting through Sick Village's winding paths at a brisk yet not overly fast pace.

They ran to elude the blowgun's sight, forcing it to abandon tracking, while not running too fast to avoid unexpected ground traps.

"Crack—"

Just thinking this, someone's footboard immediately cracked below them, dropping in an instant, Luluwo raised a hand to rescue, but suddenly three green lights flashed from nearby darkness, three poison darts simultaneously aimed at her, forcing her to withdraw and defend. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

This resulted in the soldier dropping solidly onto the lower level, producing a dull "thud," followed by his panicked voice and monster howls.

Loss of 1.

Yet, they could not stop moving, because the number of poison darts indicated at least three blowguns were pursuing them closely.

At least three, the exact count was unknown.

Luluwo swung her chain randomly towards the source of the poison darts, causing the rock layers to tremble under the attack, resulting in a headcount equivalent to one blowgun's worth.

"Damn it, did these creatures always move this fast?"

Fighting these monsters in the dark was impossible, especially since lighting-type spells were greatly diminished here due to...

A soldier cast a Lighting Technique into a dark corner, a continually luminous orb, but as soon as it touched the darkness it shrank rapidly until disappearing completely.

The darkness here had a suppressive effect on Lighting Techniques!

"Tsk."

As Luluwo grew impatient with the Sick Village's exhibited slyness, the front runners suddenly halted.

"Why did we stop?"

At the very front, the Starfire Knight frowned too, speaking uncertainly: "I think we've crossed this path before."

"What?"

Sick Village's roads were winding, yet this was their first incident of getting lost since arriving!

Besides getting lost, there was another reason the Starfire Knight had stopped.

"A monster appeared..."

A monster?

Tami peeked ahead, immediately wearing an expression saying "What did I just see?"

New monsters blocked their necessary path forward; the appearance of those monsters was genuinely unseen before, if forced to describe it...

It resembled an orange-red sea squirt with a few tentacle-like limbs?

It had an unsettling vibe... dropping SAN.
