Chapter 130

"Activate the Void Realm Eye Technique..."

Rosen's left eye instantly turned silver-white and began scanning the caves along the way.

Even if the underground city was built under the guidance of the World Government, it is impossible for it to be constructed entirely with spiritual materials.

If they were all spiritual materials, adventurers would probably dig three feet into the ground and take them all.

The only spiritual substance in this underground city, the Trap Nest, is the various traps created by the cave demons.

However, the Void Realm Eye Technique cannot scan things that contain spirituality; conversely, almost all the places it cannot scan are traps.

The Frost Naga at the forefront had arrived at a cavern frozen by seawater.

The Frost Naga's control over ice elements is not as simple as just freezing seawater.

Under the control of the ice element, the frozen trap showed no signs of thawing, but the frozen seawater outside the trap was instantly shattered into ice dust, which then reformed into an ice shield to block the way.

Soon, the Frost Naga at the forefront arrived at a section of the underground cave that the Void Eye Technique could not scan.

Almost instantly, Rosen activated his second ability besides the Void Realm Eye Technique scanning.

He and his magical pets, all their life force, were successfully transformed into information under the power of the Void Realm Eye Technique.

The health bar, visible only to Lawson, instantly appeared above his and his pet's heads.

Under the power of the Void Realm Eye Technique, both he and his magical pets would be immune to all fatal weaknesses.

As long as the health bar hasn't reached zero, you can kill the enemy even with only a sliver of health left.

The first trap was activated, and the Frost Naga at the forefront was suddenly cut in half.

This is a trap formed by a spatial rift, which is so well disguised by the cave demon that it is difficult to detect.

If it really is a Frost Naga, even with a health bar, it would definitely be severely injured in this attack.

However, the essence of the Frost Naga is slime. Unless its spirit is severely damaged, its body can both split and reassemble. Therefore, the Frost Naga whose body is split in two will reassemble the upper and lower body segments like putty.

Knowing what the trap was, everyone lowered their heads and slid across the ice to pass through the spatial rift.

They soon arrived at the second trap, and the moment the Frost Naga stepped on it, a towering pillar of fire appeared out of thin air beneath her feet.

The Frost Naga that stepped on it was instantly left with low health, but fortunately, the Frost Naga behind it used Ice Shield to block the magical flames in time.

Without making any attempts to test the waters, Rosen charged forward recklessly, relying solely on his life information-based health bar.

If the trap fails to kill the magical pet in one hit, the pre-summoned angelic beast can instantly restore its health bar.

Although this would consume a lot of spiritual energy, Rosen had more than he could use.

The Gluttonous Spirit Beast hovering beside me was constantly digesting life potions and spiritual crystals in its belly.

Even if the resistance to the life-saving potion made by the wizard is not high, it can only be taken a few times a day at most.

However, the Gluttonous Beast can digest indefinitely, and with the spiritual crystals it digests along with it, it never has to worry about running out of spiritual energy.

Those Sequence 9 traps and crypt demons had long since perished along with the sea elementals carrying the plague.

Rosen doesn't even need to stop when he passes by; he can instantly collect the loot into his scavenging space using Void Scavenging.

After rampaging for half an hour, the Frost Naga at the front finally stopped.

Because if we continue forward, we will be facing a sequence 7 trap.

This could potentially deplete the Frost Naga's health bar instantly, so the Nightmare Slime and Gray Rat were pushed to the front.

Even if a gray mouse steps into a trap, it can still manage to scramble out with its head in its hands.

Nightmare slimes are even more ferocious. Whether it's fire or lightning, poison or explosion, any trap damage that gets close will be swallowed whole by the Nightmare slime's gaping maw.

Without the life information processing of the Void Realm Eye Technique, the Nightmare Slime wouldn't dare to suffer these injuries raw.

When the two are combined, the gluttony effect is greatly enhanced.

Guided by the Void Realm Eye Technique, the gray rat activated the trap, and the Nightmare Slime destroyed it.

Although the speed was a bit slower, it was still steadily clearing the entire dungeon.

However, soon, Sequence 7 crypt demons approached from all sides through the mud after the traps were destroyed.

Instead of sending the gray rats to hunt, Rosen instantly opened the Void Gallery.

Then, a layer of spatial mist generated by the magic altar enveloped the Void Gallery's main body, which was in the form of a blood-flame skull.

Instead of bursting out of the soil for close combat, the cave demon hid in the soil and manipulated it for long-range attacks.

Spikes, gravity fields, soil compaction, gravel storms, and various trap spells indirectly released elemental damage such as fire, lightning, and ice, which destroyed the crypt passage to the point of burying the Void Gallery alive.

At this critical moment, Rosen unleashed his Void Scavenging technique with all his might.

Originally, scavenging in the void could only pick up unclaimed and unresisting items.

The collapsed cavern at this time contained the spiritual power of the cave demon.

In this situation, the original scavenging method can no longer collect soil and rocks.

However, now that he possesses the ability of greed, his spiritual perception forcibly suppresses any extraordinary elements within its range.

Similar to the earth spike skill released by the cave demon, it is not possible to rely on greed to invade and suppress the spirituality within the earth spikes.

However, ordinary soil and rocks are only indirectly infiltrated by the spiritual power of the cave demons. In this case, the power of greed easily takes the lead, and the Void Scavenger begins to continuously collect soil and rocks into the scavenging space.

Therefore, the collapsed soil and rocks not only did not bury the Void Gallery alive, but instead made the surrounding space rapidly expand.

Those cave demons that were originally hiding in the soil and attacking through the soil were instead brought out because the soil and rocks were scavenged by the void. As soon as they fell into the ever-expanding spatial mist, their sense of direction was immediately reversed and they could not lock onto their targets.

Some cave demons frantically released earth spikes, but due to their poor sense of direction, all the spikes fell on other cave demons.

The last group of cave demons were killed by their own people, while the rest scurried into the mouth of the Bloodflame Skeleton like headless flies.

Once eaten, they are immediately transferred to the gallery maze.

The gallery maze, pre-filled with seawater, began to continuously release high-voltage current from the lightning element furnace.

As a result, most of the cave demons were electrocuted instead of drowned.

However, some cave demons that can create lightning traps become increasingly energetic after being struck by lightning.

Rosen immediately moved this group of cave demons to a section of the gallery maze where there was no seawater.

At this moment, Kuroro and the others, who had already hidden in the painting, immediately locked onto these cave demons from within the painting's space and unleashed their full power. Although it was not enough to kill the Sequence 7 cave demon, it created an opportunity for Gray Rat and Nightmare Slime to launch a sneak attack and kill them.

At least several dozen Sequence 7 Crypt Demons were completely divided and killed without causing any effective damage.

Rosen didn't leave the Void Gallery at all. Instead, he released a self-portrait clone and continued forward with the Void Gallery. Whenever he encountered something that the Void Realm Eye Technique couldn't scan, he immediately fired several explosive bolts from the God-Slaying Crossbow.

The highly compressed enhanced Nen energy within these crossbow bolts is enough to easily blast open craters several meters in diameter.

Although the reduced destructive power is due to the extreme rate of fire, it is sufficient to destroy the trap.

Traps are only a threat if they are not discovered; once discovered, the threat of a trap is reduced by 90%.

This is why people are eager to enter trap nests, but few people go to fraud nests that are placed on the roadside.

Another half hour passed, and Rosen destroyed the last Sequence 7 trap.

The last Sequence 7 Crypt Demon was pierced through the Earth Elemental Shield by Rosen's Death Strike arrow the moment it charged out.

The crossbow bolt struck the cave demon's head, and the spiritual energy exploded, blasting the cave demon to pieces.

Rosen showed no intention of resting, but instead summoned Kuroro and the others to begin preparations for the final battle.

Of the 49 civilian branches, only five are Sequence 8; the rest are Sequence 9.

Let alone expecting them to deal with the Sequence 6 Crypt Fiends, they weren't even qualified to participate in the battle against the Sequence 7 Crypt Fiends just now.

They were good at doing hard and tiring work, and they took out their pickaxes and worked with the Frost Naga to dig through the soil and rocks.

The cavern is only a dozen meters in diameter, probably not even large enough to contain the body of a Sequence 6 cave demon.

In such a narrow space, Rosen simply couldn't muster the strength to fight back.

Soon, a spherical space with a radius of over a hundred meters had been dug out inside the cave. All the soil and rocks were collected into Rosen's scavenging space. Sensing the approaching danger through his extraordinary intuition, Rosen immediately recalled all the civilian soldiers.

Then he released a spatial mist that spread over a hundred meters in radius, and immediately took out his magic brush to begin drawing a circle on the ground as a prison.

If the magic brush draws a circle large enough, the leader of the dungeon demons will step into the painting or the void gallery as soon as he enters the circle.

When dealing with ordinary dungeon demons, Rosen used the spatial mist to send them into the Void Gallery.

The magic brush used to draw a prison on the ground was useless; it was mainly used to deal with the leader of the underground demons.

The entire dungeon is basically under the perception of the boss monster.

When Rosen entered the den of fraud, the leader of the fraud demons had already come knocking on his door.

However, the core authority over the dungeons is in the hands of humans, who have set up rules within the dungeons that are difficult for monsters to violate.

For example, if the trap is not destroyed, the Crypt Demon cannot launch a major attack.

For example, if all the other dungeon demons are still alive, the dungeon demon leader cannot proactively appear to attack the adventurer group.

Of course, these rules are not absolute; it would be too costly to set up absolutely mandatory rules for every dungeon.

Rosen guessed that perhaps some kind of mind-controlling method was used.

As long as one can resist this imperfect rule, the boss monsters in the dungeon can attack prematurely without restraint.

Under the influence of fate's editing, Actor Mask is no longer able to prevent the Cave Demon Leader from appearing.

With a loud bang, the over twenty-meter-long, turtle-like leader of the underground demons, covered in thick armor, emerged from the soil and released a barrage of spikes covering an area of ​​over a hundred meters in radius.

It not only has indiscriminate area-of-effect attacks, but the condensed ground spikes are also ten times harder than steel.

Rosen activated Shadow Cloak and instantly teleported onto the back of the Crypt Demon Leader.

However, in the next instant, all the missed spikes were shattered into dust, and this dust changed its properties in just a few seconds.

Every grain of dust is an elemental bomb, and countless grains of dust are countless elemental bombs.

The leader of the cave demons instantly shrunk into a ball, then manipulated all the elemental bombs to explode at the same time.

The entire underground city shook violently, and the space that was originally a hundred meters in diameter became several hundred meters in diameter.

If Rosen hadn't hidden in the Void Gallery at the last moment, he would have been either dead or crippled.

Shrinking to the size of a fist, the void gallery disappears into a spatial interlayer, far from the cave demon leader.

Seeing that it had failed to kill the intruder, the leader of the dungeon demons immediately opened up the dungeon space and released the traps it had set up.

Crypt space is a technique that only Sequence 6 Crypt Demons can master.

It's somewhat similar to a scavenging space, except instead of storing things, it's used to store traps.

Suddenly, a spatial vortex appeared in front of the Void Gallery, locking onto it and causing it to begin rotating at an ultra-high speed.

Rosen had seen many spatial vortexes; those that entered the Spirit Realm were all stable spatial vortexes.

However, this spatial vortex is so chaotic that even falling into the Void Gallery will cause some damage.

Rosen was able to dodge; he could share the gray rat's panicked escape.

Then, using the Void Gallery technique to flee in panic, the burst of speed ten times faster in an instant is enough to break free from this spatial trap.

However, Rosen did not hesitate and allowed the Void Gallery to be captured by the spatial vortex.

Upon seeing the enemy fall into the trap, the leader of the cave demons immediately approached the spatial trap, preparing to press his advantage.

However, just as the leader of the underground demons approached the Void Gallery, he had already entered the area marked by the divine brush, which was essentially a prison.

Spatial teleportation: The leader of the dungeon demons was forcibly transferred to a painting within the gallery maze.

Since it was only a Sequence 8 spiritual painting, the space within the painting was simply unable to withstand the destruction caused by the leader of the crypt demons.

It tore the spiritual painting apart with earth spikes, broke out of the painting's space, and fell into the gallery's labyrinth.

Rosen did not inject seawater because seawater mixed with mud would turn into a swamp.

This kind of environment is actually more suitable for the leader of the cave demons.

Rosen aimed and fired from within a painting on the wall the instant the cave demon leader tore apart the spiritual painting and fell into the gallery maze. Nine spatial armor-piercing bullets passed through the canvas from within the painting and struck the cave demon leader.

Ordinary space-piercing bullets are nothing more than Sequence 9 extraordinary bullets and pose no threat to Sequence 6.

However, these nine spatial armor-piercing bullets not only possess the ash armor-piercing power of a death blow, but their hollow warheads also contain miniature spiritual paintings, with the spatial sacred fire generated by the magic altar stored within the paintings.

In addition to its carapace, the leader of the cave demons also had a layer of rock attached to its carapace.

The ash armor-piercing projectile tore through rock harder than steel, and the projectile shattered upon impact with the armor shell.

However, the spatial flame detached from the shattered painting space and landed on the carapace, beginning to decompose it.

This made the cave demon leader feel mortally threatened, and he curled up into a ball and began rolling at supersonic speed through the gallery maze.

However, this cannot extinguish the spatial sacred fire, because the essence of this flame is not combustion, but spatial decomposition. The more substances that are decomposed during the combustion process, the more intense the spatial sacred fire becomes. The simplest way to get rid of the spatial sacred fire is to sever the body.
