Chapter 86: Chapter 86 Creeping Realm!_1
“Bang!”
With the last struggling Bone-Eating Bird falling to Tuck’s witchcraft,
the battle ca to an end.
And at that mont,
everyone’s gaze in the team silently converged on Tuck.
Previously, when their team was the first to enter the Demon King Tomb, and was held with the utmost expectations,
they had their doubts.
“Are ‘we’ really that strong?”
Now, the results had spoken for themselves.
Not only that,
but the team’s combined strength was outrageously powerful.
Wizard Tuck!
He had disposed of the extrely dangerous flock of Bone-Eating Birds with just a single type of shooting witchcraft.
The exquisite high-frequency aiming and the astonishing lethality.
It was simply a feast of the art of slaughter.
If it had been them, perhaps they could have resolved the issue as well, but it definitely would have consud a lot of their resources, and even personnel might have suffered losses.
A few people scrutinized Tuck, each lost in thought.
While Tuck was examining the Bone-Eating Birds he had shot one by one.
“These elite Bone-Eating Birds, their levels are around 28 or 29.”
“Ordinary Bone-Eating Birds, on the other hand, range from level 25 to 27.”
“Normally, the levels wouldn’t be this even.”
“So…”
Tuck looked around at the surrounding darkness, and the unique suffocating oppression of the tomb’s ecology.
“It’s the upper limit of the tomb’s transcendent ecology that’s restraining the levels of these creatures.”
“A smaller transcendent ecology can’t accommodate the ergence of higher-level life forms.”
“Which ans…”
Tuck’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“The leader-level life forms here, if we’re lucky, might have levels 30 or 31.”
“If we’re unlucky, they’ll just be at level 29.”
“Leaders at the peak of the Second Rank or the beginning of the Third Rank.”
“The hunting… still holds quite a bit of hope.”
Apart from the core objective, reaching the second layer of the Demon King Tomb,
those leaders were also Tuck’s main hunting targets.
Even in St. Land, a bustling transcendent city-state,
materials from leader-level creatures were extrely expensive and rare.
“So far, we haven’t felt any movent from the Dark Sun Church here.”
“Moreover, other teams, due to the difference in entry ti, landed in locations different from ours.”
Relying on his powerful Precision Vision, Tuck continually captured information about the surroundings, the veins, and trajectories.
In this environnt of [Dark] and [Fog],
relying on SSS Level Precision Correction to glean more information was Tuck’s advantage.
Soon, the transcendent crystals that the Bone-Eating Birds had shed upon death were collected by Banov.
And Marcus and Raymond, who had previously been at the front attracting fire and had sustained so injuries, had been restored to their original state after the Priest’s treatnt.
“9 elite crystals, 24 ordinary crystals.”
“Quite a nice haul,” Banov announced as he counted the harvest and stored it away.
He then continued, “This Bone-Eating Bird colony might have a leader.”
“But the Bone-Eating Birds’ nesting grounds are strange, located upon cliff faces, with complex cave networks.”
“If we go in, it will certainly take a lot of ti, and we’re also not certain whether a Bone-Eating Bird leader exists, and whether there is a Demon King Trait Tree.”
At this point, Banov looked towards the captain, Gudale.
And Gudale looked at Tuck.
“There shouldn’t be a leader!”
Tuck responded indifferently, making his stance known.
Gudale withdrew his gaze and swept over the mbers of the squad before slowly speaking.
“Based on the intelligence we have, the Demon King Tomb takes the form of a dynamic maze with strata stacked upon one another.”
“So when we entered, our landing points were all quite different.”
“Now that our squad has regrouped,”
“we need to enter the inner part of the Demon King Tomb maze as quickly as possible, so we can find the Demon King Traits we need.”
At this, Gudale turned his attention to Honey.
“Can you determine the direction to go deeper?”
Priest Honey looked at the lantern in his hands, gazing at it for a mont before nodding: “I can.”
“Good,”
Gudale took a deep breath and looked at everyone.
“The Demon King Tomb is filled with the attributes of [Dark] and [Fog].”
“Everyone must stick close to the light from Honey’s lantern.”
“Once you fall into darkness, you will completely lose your sense of direction.”
“By then, it will be impossible for us to find you.”
“Even these outskirts are ho to transcendent creatures like Bone-Eating Birds that cause us much trouble.”
“Going deeper inside will only get… more and more dangerous.”
Gudale’s words cast a solemn expression across everyone’s faces.
After all, this was the tomb of a powerful Demon King sealed by many strong Wizards.
Although the Transcendent creatures here are not of very high Level.
But the strange ecology here, a slight misstep, could devour them.
“Additionally!”
Gudale looked at Tuck.
“Tuck, you stay at the back.”
“No problem!” The corner of Tuck’s eye glanced at the depths of the darkness, and he nodded lightly.
In the depths of the darkness, where the light couldn’t reach, sothing was secretly watching everyone.
If soone else were at the back, they might simply disappear while on the move.
With Tuck at the back, at least it could be ensured that no one would mysteriously fall behind.
Soon, everyone, having rested and prepared, resud their journey.
With Priest Honey’s lantern light at the center.
In the darkness, they began to explore deeper, leaving certain marks behind.
…
Compared to Tuck’s squad, which started a secure exploration of the Demon King’s Tomb,
Other squad mbers weren’t so lucky.
Even with the support of corresponding intelligence.
So people got lost in the depths of the darkness as soon as they entered, losing touch with their team.
So unfortunate folks went straight into Monster nests and died in desperation.
The vast tomb layered realm maze constructed by the Demon King before his fall,
Began to consu the lives of these intruders again hundreds of years after his Death.
Just like in the old Dark Era.
Those fearless heroes, challenging the Demon King’s axe with their own heads.
……
In the advancing darkness.
The squirming of the spatial layers.
Made the entire tomb world tremble at intervals.
That Demon King who had fallen long ago had built a layered realm that, over continuous accumulation, turned the tomb into a magical Small World.
It’s unknown if others could see the small-scale shifting of the layered realm plates.
But Tuck could see them very clearly.
Every ti the tomb’s spatial layers squird.
Swamps, plateaus, mountain ridges, glaciers, subterranean towns…
Different layered realm terrains and landforms continuously unfolded before Tuck’s eyes.
This made Tuck marvel at the magical ans of that powerful Demon King.
One mont it was a gravel path, a few steps later, it turned into a muddy swamp.
And in the swamp, there were so Blood-sucking Worms.
Raymond Corey, the team’s Berserker, was quite popular with those Blood-sucking Worms.
In the swamp, the Blood-sucking Worms ignored others and chased him frantically.
If Raymond Corey ran too slowly, he might be sucked dry by those terrifying Blood-sucking Worms.
Fortunately, under Honey’s leadership, the team reached a new node at the right ti.
Entering the next layered realm, they finally got rid of the Blood-sucking Worms coming at them from all directions.
And combat on the way was virtually nonstop.
Every entry into a layered realm brought different Transcendent creatures.
Luckily, they had Tuck as an escort.
A few ordinary Transcendent creatures scattered about did not require Tuck’s intervention.
The Shadow Fla Demon Wolf could deal with them.
For larger groups of Transcendent creatures.
The squad would enter combat mode.
Creating space for Tuck to strike, and Tuck’s various Witchcraft thods never disappointed the squad mbers.
At the base of a broad ridge.
Swinging his broadsword, Raymond Corey violently slashed the vines entangling his feet, venting the anger in his heart.
And around him, there were already more than a dozen such severed vine tentacles.
The way they ca, encountering various bizarre Transcendent creatures and eccentric environnts known as “Squirming Layered Realms.”
Made Raymond Corey feel frustrated that he couldn’t fully exert his strength.
But these tangible vines, which could be confronted head-on, were just to his taste.
A real man should fight like this.
Looking at the still twitching broken vines.
Raymond Corey lifted his broadsword again.
Even in death, he wanted to lash out one more ti, or else he might not get such a good chance later.
And at this mont.
Not far away, Tuck, Gudale, Honey and others were gathered together.
“The layered realms we passed through before all seed to have a large number of Transcendent creatures.”
“And this area…”
As he spoke, Honey glanced at the vines Raymond Corey was “practicing swordsmanship” on.
“Even if there are Earth Tendrils, they’re not that fierce.”
“So this should already be close to a deeper location on the second level of the Demon King’s Tomb.”
“At the sa ti, there should be powerful Leader Level creatures here, as well as the Demon King Attribute Tree.”
“This, probably, is the place truly worth our exploration.”
As Honey finished explaining.
Gudale turned to Tuck and asked, “Tuck, what do you think?”
