Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1208 - 778: Sorcery Fire

It seems there are rustling sounds coming from the clearing not far away.

A pile of giant stones on the clearing, isolated from the muck, obscured people's view.

But upon listening carefully, it sounds like the panting of some creature, though it doesn't sound as rough as a monster.

Could it be...

Luluwo exchanged glances with everyone, and they all nodded, the same answer flickering in their eyes:

Damn, it's definitely Blowguns hiding and getting ready to ambush us!

In Gong Qiying's design, Blowguns often hides in environments of absolute darkness, with magic cloaking them from view, making them a tough opponent to kill.

But he also gave the adventurers a chance, for example, Blowguns' stamina isn't exceptional among monsters, and when fighting continuously, it'll pant due to lack of stamina. This faint sound of panting is a significant flaw to strong adventurers.

After all, the City Lord isn't a devil.

Everyone looked at each other, communicating with their eyes, all focused on one thing:

Who is going to step forward and take out Blowguns!

Faced with this rare chance to slice and dice the monster that's tormented them for so long at close range, everyone was quite enthusiastic and eager, showing more combativeness than the natives of Warrior Country.

In the end, Luluwo, relying on her seniority, directly overshadowed everyone, walking toward the standing giant stones on the clearing with the smile of a victor.

The swamp here was quite deep, even the shallowest places would submerge above the knees, and the deepest feared to go past the waist, far deeper than at Fran Fort.

And the swamp at Fran Fort could be said to have turned into poison water due to Abyssal erosion, but the swamp here in Sick Village...

This really is almost entirely excrement, and Sick Village is built below the Undead Town Outside the City, so this could be seen as the Undead Town's sewer.

In other words, this environment posed a higher mental pressure on decent people than so-called Abyssal erosion transformed poison water!

Even an adventurer as dedicated as Luluwo would roll around in the swamp at Fran Fort, but here in Sick Village, she couldn't stand the slightest exaggerated movement in the swamp, fearing anything might splash on her.

Since she couldn't use the Flying Skill, she cast Levitation Skill on herself, yet this only pushed the swamp submerging up to the knees down slightly below the shins, so she gathered chains to form stilts under her feet to finally avoid direct contact with the swamp.

Luluwo stood atop Sick Village's muck pit!

Some might think her reaction is a bit exaggerated, that adventurers should roll in the mud occasionally, so how could they mind dirt?

But disliking and avoiding filth is a human instinct, so how could there be such a saying as "mop soaked with filth, Lu Bu reborn."

Yet, in reverse, people fear the mop rather than the one holding it, and once something from the mop touches them...

All prior fear would instantly turn into blood fury, a 100% conversion!

Adventurers are still in the First Stage, it's normal to dislike it.

"[Assassin's Step][Become Invisible]."

Luluwo silenced her footsteps and vanished her presence, though she lost much of her equipment in the Yanor Kingdom, the knowledge she'd acquired still belonged to her, she'd too much to thank for Reyalucaria Magic Academy, for her Magic Tutor.

Silently, she went behind the giant stone, listening intently, surprisingly the panting sound that was heard before had ceased.

This is the enemy discovering me, alerting!

Without any hesitation, she struck like thunder, her magic wand instantly transformed into the massive [Highmore Hammer] and slammed down on the giant stone!

"Boom!"

In an instant, the earth and mountains shook, rocks shattered and smoke spread everywhere, the giant stone taller than a human instantly turned into a cloud of dust under the fierce smash of Highmore Hammer, yet Luluwo didn't stop there, she immediately swung a second blow!

"Boom!"

High waves flew up from the swamp, she smashed a huge pit into the whole clearing!

"That should have killed it," the corner of her mouth unintentionally curled up, her gaze sweeping the clearing.

"Huh?"

Why can't I see any blood?

Where's the blood and meat I wanted to see?

The commotion here attracted the prying of nearby monsters, but fortunately, they weren't many or strong, so while dealing with them, she frowned and surveyed the surroundings.

She was sure that sounds and weak breathing indeed came from behind the giant stone earlier, why did it vanish the moment she got close?

Could it be a ghost like in Little Londo Ruins?

If a conundrum is not solvable, don't dwell on it.

Returning empty-handed, Luluwo went back and made everyone a pair of stilts, given that everyone's physical coordination as warriors was quite extraordinary, walking on stilts didn't hinder their actions.

"This place is suited for Hevi," Starfire Knight commented while trudging through the swamp, "he'd surely try to cook it dry here, Suffocating Dragon Tooth can also block the muck."

"I'd rather die than take a muck sauna here with Hevi," another chimed in.
