But the bustling playfulness stops here.
Because next, they will arrive at the most notorious special zone on the entire continent.
As the light of the teleportation array flickers, their magic energy vehicle is transported entirely into the Land of Lawlessness.
Everyone curiously looks at the scene outside, obscured by yellow sand.
Chloe whispers:
"I'll go out to scout first."
In the distorted view of the heat waves, the supply station ahead resembles the wind-dried skeleton of a gigantic beast.
As Chloe counts the knife marks on the third support pillar, the tin roof suddenly emits a teeth-grinding groan.
Beside the rusty gas pump, a half-weathered skeleton remains in a posture of drawing its sword, with dark red brambles growing out of its hollow eye sockets.
The touch of sand on the face changes.
He suddenly ducks, as the roar of magic flames nearly tears his eardrums.
The string of tin cans hanging on the wire fence clatters, and twenty meters away, behind the tilted window of the convenience store, a gaunt elder mage slowly puts down his magic staff.
"Outsiders, and so young? Tsk, almost messed up."
A hoarse voice comes from beneath the gas pump.
The elderly woman mage curled up there raises her charred left hand, with three finger stumps oozing yellow pus.
Floating in the plastic bucket at her feet is some creature's spinal bone, and the water surface glows an eerie fluorescent green.
Chloe unwraps the burlap from his waist, revealing a half-pack of compressed biscuits.
"Some intelligence about the Land of Lawlessness."
The old witch cackles twice; in this Land of Lawlessness, even food and clothing are troublesome.
This person actually knows the rules.
She eats the compressed biscuits slowly and then talks about the conflicts that have erupted recently on this chaotic land.
For instance, the Zor Elves recently captured from the Underdark are unusually active.
Or how the Abyss of Woe's underground level 10 somehow let in demons only seen at level 30.
After rambling for a long time, she laughs eerily:
"Want to know more, then tell me the intelligence..."
In the next moment.
Metal shards swept up by the sandstorm start to crash into the supply station's sign, and the old woman's cloudy eyes suddenly widen. Her dry lips haven't even emitted a scream before her head explodes like a ripe pumpkin.
Laura puts down the magic staff in her hand, while Aisha draws her tachi, looking in the direction of the storage tank.
"Wait, don't act yet."
From behind the storage tank crawls out a burly man wearing welding goggles.
His hand has been implanted with magic energy machinery, and the modified chainsaw still drips red blood.
The girl who used the tachi just now shattered his exoskeletal armor with one strike.
This power truly made him feel like his soul was departing.
He kicks aside the bones at his feet, his oil-stained boots stepping on the old woman's corpse:
"She's just an ordinary criminal; I can tell you intelligence only core members of the Land of Lawlessness know."
Lilith casually says:
"You're only Sequence Eight; what news could you know that others don't?"
"I turned my sister into a sex doll; she's serving people uptown, and the news is absolutely genuine!"
Rephya shows a disgusted expression, and the next moment, with a single slash, the world is silent.
She turns her head to look at Chloe.
Chloe snaps his fingers, and a desecration ceremony unfolds.
The man slowly stands up.
Magic from the Abyss subjugates this corpse.
Chloe calmly says:
"What is the intelligence you want to share?"
"Some time ago, the Zor Elves from the Underdark voluntarily stepped into the Land of Lawlessness.
They have three teams, averaging Sequence Eight, with the leader being Sequence Six.
It's said that one of the Three Kings of the Underdark sent them to find something, but nobody knows exactly what."
Chloe appears deep in thought.
A flattering voice comes from the corpse:
"Master, since I've already told you, give me a chance to survive."
Chloe shrugs:
"But haven't you already died long ago?"
The criminal freezes for a moment, and then, he finally seems to recall memories of his life.
His eyes show anger, and after a howl, he directly charges toward Chloe.
Aisha quietly appears in his path, with a flash of blade, that criminal instantly falls silent.
At this time, the tin roof of the supply station in the Land of Lawlessness is finally lifted by the violent wind.
Spinning into a sharp frisbee in the bloody sunset.
When the first drop of acid rain falls, he finally understands why people say the Land of Lawlessness is not suited for ordinary Extraordinary to survive.
"Send the news to Principal Alfredo; the activity over in the Underdark seems off."
Their atmosphere turns a bit somber.
Now, they no longer show the smiling demeanor they had during the Ethereal Emblem days.
The Land of Lawlessness is more chaotic than they imagined.
There are too many criminals here.
Attacks like this have been nonstop since they entered.
"Let's go; there's no need to linger in the Land of Lawlessness."
Their goal has always been the Abyss of Woe below the Land of Lawlessness.
...
The damp mist condensed into blood beads on the rock walls, Chloe's boots crushed the glowing moss, leaving broken remnants in the blue light.
The air of the first level in the Land of Woe carried the smell of rust, a remnant of the Iron Man War from three hundred years ago, still corroding the breath of intruders.
"Three o'clock direction, abnormal vibration frequency of the spider web."
In front of Miseria floated a silver mechanical eye.
This was the exploration equipment summoned after she enhanced a Mythical Template named [Mechanical Heart].
She suddenly halted, her silver mechanical eye slowly rotating, golden gears appeared in her pupil.
Seventeen semi-transparent filaments extended from her fingers, weaving a three-dimensional warning network in the void.
Just as the words fell, twelve shadows shot out like arrows from the stalactites.
The curved blade of the Zor Elves drew a purple-black trajectory, the blade smeared with spider venom left a viscous trace in the air.
The leading female Zor Elf wore a bone spike mask, simultaneously pulling the trigger on the repeating crossbow with six fingers, poisoned arrows forming a fan-shaped cover over the entire team.
Fratiss suddenly appeared at the front of the team.
The shield in her hand was slammed down fiercely onto the ground.
The semi-transparent light film deflected the exploding arrows.
Aisha slowly sheathed her tachi.
Silver feathers descended from the sky.
The approaching Zor Elves were cut into pieces instantly by the sharp blade light.
Fratiss thrust her long spear forward, its tip gleamed with crimson moon patterns, blood beads began to seep from the end of the spear.
When the head of the first Zor Elf flew up, Chloe saw those blood beads suspended in the air, forming a life aura, beginning to converge into Fratiss's body.
"Thirty-seven seconds."
Miseria calmly reported the time.
The ground was already covered with shriveled Zor corpses, all the blood flowed along the spear tip upwards, forming a swirling blood ring around Fratiss.
The last Zor thief collapsed onto the ground, his skin visibly dull and cracked.
Chloe's silver sword pressed against the thief's throat:
"Why have the spiders in your Dark Territory started to go mad collectively?"
The Zor elf assassin sneered, ancient rune on his face started to heat up.
It was the sign of self-destruction.
However, a thunderous light blossomed from Chloe's hand.
Instantly, it destroyed the self-destructive power that spread from his body.
Abyssal Magic activated again.
"Speak, what are you up to?"
Dominated by Abyssal Magic, the Zor elf showed a painful expression.
"Blood... Blood Moon Altar…" black blood oozed from the thief's mouth corners, pupils began to dilate, "The Three Kings want to gather the Thirteen Holy Remains… the queen's fate-weaving spider web has already covered…"
As the corpse fell, it turned into black smoke, leaving only a half-broken spider badge.
Laura stepped forward, brushed the ashes, frowned, and said:
"It's Rose's curse."
Lilith frowned and said: "No wonder we've been hearing about frequent Blood Race attacks recently, looks like that old woman in the Dark Territory wants to obtain the power of the Thirteen Heroes."
Chloe rarely showed an angry expression.
The Thirteen Heroes of the Blood Race were those who died in battle in the Shadow Plane.
That war essentially wiped out the elite of the Blood Race, it would take countless generations of Blood Race to reach Liszt's level again.
He tried hard not to think about Liszt's side.
The corpses of the Thirteen Heroes of the Blood Race couldn't even be retrieved.
Along with the Thirteen Holy Artifacts and Blood Pool, shattered and lost.
Now someone tells him the Dark Territory wants to disturb their sleep, truly infuriating Chloe.
"Now is not the time to go to the Dark Territory, this matter… let's talk to Principal Alfredo first."
Fufu tugged at Chloe.
Nini flew to him and gently touched his forehead:
"Xiaoke, don't be angry, I'll help you fight them later."
Chloe nodded.
The most important thing now is to continue to delve into the Abyss of Woe.
In the next seventy-two hours, death appeared in various forms.
Underground 5 layers.
The lava breath of the earth dragon illuminated the cave in a fiery red, Chloe didn't make a move, just directed Aisha to find the flaw at its third reversed scale with her tachi, then kill it in one strike.
Underground 7 layers.
The spore cloud sprayed by the Demonized Mushroom King drove several elders of the Extreme Association into frenzy, Miseria had to use Puppet Silk to control their bodies to take over the battle.
Underground 9 layers.
When the main eye of the Eye Demon opened, the Shadow Legion summoned by Fufu was disintegrated in an instant by Spiritual Light Piercing, Fratiss proactively used the coating defense.
This fight was exceptionally tough.
But the most troublesome was the 10th layer's Wounded Eye Tyrant.
Accurately, it shouldn't be appearing on the 10th floor under normal circumstances.
It was a demon on the 30th layer underground.
This monster formed by countless eyeballs, each pupil reflecting different ways of death.
Chloe saw the image of his right hand being pierced by an ice spike, soon his right arm lost sensation - a sign of the Wounded Eye curse power activating.
However, when the roaring Filthy Thunder enveloped his body, it instantly cleared away those abnormal effects.
The curse of the Wounded Eye, can't withstand Filthy Thunder.
"So strange, when did Abyss of Woe become this dangerous?"
Everyone had studied, knowing the current situation was not ordinary.
From entering the first layer, the enemies they encountered far exceeded the norm.
