The wrong person on the ground, the opening sword soul template

Chapter 157 A Speedrun with Sword Maiden Ais

Sword Maiden Ais couldn't help but admire this strategy.

Their dungeon raiding efficiency is indeed higher than that of many expedition teams.

Even their Loki Familia, when embarking on Familia expeditions, all proceeded on foot.

This rapid movement will cause a lot of unnecessary physical exertion.

Furthermore, it can also have a negative impact on the ability to perceive danger.

However, seeing that no one had any objections to Liang Yue, Sword Maiden Ais also remained silent.

She didn't forget her main goal: to learn from others.

Try your best to observe Liang Yue to analyze how she achieved such rapid growth.

The entire underground city is basically cone-shaped in structure.

Dungeon Level 1:
The monsters that Liang Yue and the others had to face were all very weak.

Even a normal slash can easily kill, let alone a slash with sword energy.

Inside the dimly lit dungeon, the walls were dotted with fluorescent stones, making it still possible to see normally.

A group of goblins approached, but were easily killed by Liang Yue.

Lily picked up the loot at maximum efficiency from behind, and the others maintained this pace as they continued forward.

It's still goblins, but a variant has appeared among them.

For example, a Big Goblin?
By launching an attack before her teammates, Liang Yue easily annihilated the numerous monsters once again.

Liang Yue turned around and said, "This is the group strategy for this mission. I will be in charge of the first eighteen floors. You will be responsible for guarding the area."

After resting on the 18th floor, I was in charge of the front of the entire team.

Ais, you're in charge of protecting everyone in the rear. The rest of you will be responsible for fighting in the front or rear.

"Yes!"

With the addition of Ais as a powerful temporary member to the team, Liang Yue can focus more on attacking.

Liang Yue carefully observed everyone's condition. "I will be the main attacker at the front, and Ais will be the defender at the back of the team."

Lily, Cassandra, Ming, Ais, the four of you, proceed according to Daphne's instructions regarding formation and specific arrangements.

"Yes!"

As the sharpest spearhead in the entire team, Liang Yue only needs to consider how to efficiently conquer the dungeon.

Daphne, on the other hand, has many more things to consider.

Liang Yue herself will not restrict everyone's development, so after everyone's ability values ​​improve in the future, you can choose a career based on your own abilities and interests.

Of course, it's best not to compete with Liang Yue for the main damage output.

Liang Yue's arrangement perfectly matched Ais's expectations; as a defender, she could better protect everyone except Liang Yue.

Moreover, it would allow me to observe Liang Yue more legitimately.

Liang Yue's movements are very simple and effective, but from the outside, you can't tell that the same movements are the same. So why is Liang Yue able to unleash a slash?

How exactly is that special slash achieved?

While keeping a watchful eye on her surroundings, Ais focused her main attention on observing Liang Yue.

At the same time, she was also observing Liang Yue's breathing.

"Is it a breathing problem? Or some special cultivation technique? Or it could be due to his innate talent."

Generally speaking, adventurers' power is activated and renewed through the grace of the gods.

It seems that Liang Yue's swordsmanship, which releases sword energy, is also a prerequisite for the ability activated by divine grace.

Therefore, if you want to have the same speed of strength improvement as Liang Yue, you must receive the same favor as her.
Impossible. This is definitely the other party's trump card, an answer that would never be obtained through legitimate questioning.

Ais also considered fighting desperately to unleash her full potential and break through her limits.

The final result was naturally unsuccessful; instead of increasing, the ability value decreased.

Second level of the dungeon:

Inside the dungeon, a gecko-like monster appeared, its body length almost the same as a human's.

Their skin was somewhat like tea leaves, and upon seeing Liang Yue and the others, they immediately surged towards them like a tide.

The ground, walls, and ceiling were covered with these monsters, completely changing the original color of the walls.

Faced with such an exaggerated number, Liang Yue continued to use the Selfless Sword Qi to slash.

Now, when he fights these monsters, the experience he gains is very little, but something is better than nothing.

As for having his teammates attack, that's completely unnecessary.

Liang Yue wants to conduct the dungeon expedition with maximum efficiency!

Let him handle these dungeon lizards!
With this thought in mind, Liang Yue placed her left hand, which was bound by chains, on the sword box on her back.

Then, he took a neon-colored halberd in his hand.

Slaanesh, the blade is 60 centimeters long and the handle is 20 centimeters long.

As for the Sloth, the blade is 99 centimeters long and the handle is 30 centimeters long.

As the sword energy of selflessness was injected into Slaanesh, Slaanesh's blade immediately began to vibrate at a high frequency.

The blade emitted a faint pink glow, and a subtle sword hummed within the narrow underground tunnel.

As he intensified the injection of the Selfless Sword Qi, the pink brightness of the blade increased, while the sword's humming sound disappeared.

"This is Slaanesh? This is the effect of high-frequency vibration, so the disappearance of the sword's cry means that the vibration frequency has increased?"

Seeing the monsters surging towards them like a tidal wave, Liang Yue brandished Slaanesh.

Slaanesh's blade gleamed with a pinkish light, and streaks of light, like cherry blossoms, flew silently past.

The bodies of these lizard monsters were split in two, until they were completely reduced to pieces of flesh and fell to the ground, at which point blood gushed out.

Immediately afterward, numerous monster corpses turned into a cloud of black smoke.

The ground was covered with magic stones.

Slaanesh and sloth are two completely different effects.

Indolence can release cold air; if struck by a slash, sword energy, or blade aura, it will directly cause the opponent to experience a cold and stiff effect.

Slaanesh, on the other hand, is accompanied by high-frequency sword energy cutting.

For large-scale crowd control, Sloth is clearly more useful, while for mowing grass, Slaanesh is clearly more useful.

Less sword energy consumption, sharper sword energy attacks.

Putting aside the effectiveness of armor penetration, we haven't encountered any monsters with excellent defense yet.

At least its lawn-cutting efficiency is exceptionally good.

Ming looked at the wakizashi in Liang Yue's hand and subconsciously wiped the corner of his mouth.

It can emit a cherry blossom-colored sword light, it's so beautiful.

Liang Yue didn't notice Ming's gaze, because all eight weapons of the Seven Deadly Sins were bound to him.

Therefore, once it falls into someone else's hands, it not only fails to unleash special effects, but it also cannot be cut by anything.

Even the casket containing the Seven Deadly Sins was something no one but him could open.

If we had to pinpoint a flaw for Liang Yue, it would be that she wouldn't be able to pass on her legacy to her descendants.

The third level of the dungeon
Dungeons are generally divided into upper, middle, lower, deep, and unknown levels.

Normally, monsters from one floor will also appear on other floors above.

Now, on the third level, in addition to the normal goblins, there are also variant goblins such as giant goblins, frost goblins, and goblin priests.

These goblins are naturally much stronger than those on the first floor.

However, this level of enhancement wasn't very useful. Liang Yue's strength was still more than enough to handle the situation.

After that, they slaughtered all the goblins they encountered along the way as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

The same applies to the fourth and fifth floors.

After a short rest, Liang Yue cleared away all the monsters around her.

"Rest here for ten minutes."

"Yes!"

Everyone was basically jogging along, so a short rest was very necessary.

Liang Yue conquered all five floors in one go, basically using only the Selfless Sword Qi.

With the aid of his two top-tier weapons, these monsters were more fragile than paper.

Ais's surprise grew.

I've never seen a dungeon walkthrough like this before.

Compared to Liang Yue's approach to strategy, Sword Maiden Ais felt that their previous strategies were just like traveling.

Even though the Loki Familia also endured great hardship during their expedition.

However, this is still far behind Liang Yue's frequency of conquering women.

Ais looked at Liang Yue, "Is it really okay to use this lineup to conquer the game?"

Liang Yue shook her head. "At this pace, it's not even a warm-up."

Lily said smugly, "You have no idea, our guild leader's daily routine is to annihilate monsters in a grand feast."

"Use the Monster Feast to level up?"

Even Fiora had never considered this question.

Because, according to common sense, a monster feast means trouble.

So everyone naturally tries to avoid the monster feast, but Liang Yue actually treats it as a daily occurrence?

That makes sense; only by frequently annihilating monster feasts could Liang Yue achieve such an amazing leveling speed, right?
She clearly remembered that not long ago Liang Yue was only a Lv2 adventurer, but this time she met her again and she was already Lv3, and could even easily defeat two Lv5s.
This potential...

Having no interest in pondering Ais and the others' thoughts, Liang Yue focused her main energy on continuing to conquer the dungeon.

The sixth level of the dungeon
战影
It was a shadowy figure entirely in black, about 1.6 meters tall.

Their cross-shaped faces are inlaid with perfectly round parts, like hand mirrors. Their wrists have sharp claws.

Moreover, there are more than a dozen of them.

As these battle shadows, positioned entirely differently, surrounded Liang Yue and the others, Liang Yue had already unleashed two sword-drawing slashes.

As the sword-wielding energy moved at high speed, it emitted a large amount of white icy mist.

The other sword-drawing slash emitted a cherry blossom-colored light.

The three warriors were hit by the first strike and were cut in half at the waist, turning into corpses.

Although the rest of them managed to dodge the first attack, the white icy mist emanating from it still slowed their bodies down.

Immediately following the arrival of the second pink sword aura, all eight battle shadows were swiftly killed.

There were three remaining War Shadows, who, upon seeing these War Shadows, tried to scatter and flee.

Liang Yue used the Triple Slash to move quickly, and as he moved at high speed, the sharp blade in his hand brought with it an unavoidable white mist of ice.

The remaining three warriors were quickly caught up with and easily killed by Liang Yue's three-stage slash.

After slaying these shadow warriors, Lily quickly collected the magic stones and materials.

"Captain, we got three Shadow Finger Blades this time!"

"Okay, keep it safe. Someone will need this kind of weapon eventually."

"Yes!"

Then, we move towards the next level using the shortest path and the highest efficiency.

Dungeon Level 7:

Upon reaching this floor, everyone except Liang Yue became noticeably more cautious.

"Killer ants have started appearing on this floor, be careful."

Since this wasn't the first time anyone had encountered such a monster, they had anticipated it.

Liang Yu was the first to spot the killer ants, so he immediately used Sloth to unleash sword energy to attack.

Utilizing the characteristics of killer ants now would be too inefficient, so he didn't bother to lure them out.

Next up is the Needle Rabbit.

As the name suggests, this monster is a rabbit-like creature with sharp horns on its head.

As they moved forward, a group of pinhead rabbits appeared from all around.

In the dim light, the eyes of these needle rabbits glowed red, which looked quite intimidating.

Then these needle-shaped rabbits, each with a swift jumping ability, leaped towards Liang Yue and the others like slingshots or arrows.

For an ordinary novice adventurer, being hit would naturally result in multiple bloody holes in their body.

Therefore, Liang Yue showed no mercy and launched another sword strike at these enemies.

A large amount of selfless sword energy was released, and the two blades worked together to launch a ranged sword energy attack.

The normally agile Needle Rabbit was completely unable to resist Liang Yue's attack.

One by one, their bodies were sliced ​​open by the sword energy, and then they dissipated into wisps of black mist.

The sword energy released by Liang Yue was extremely dense. Any needle-sized rabbits that were lucky enough to dodge one or two sword energies would be shredded by the subsequent sword energy net.

Ais watched this scene in shock. If she were to attack alone, these pinhead rabbits would have overwhelmed her.

However, Liang Yue looked very relaxed.

All I can say is that she truly lives up to her reputation as Liang Yue.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can do for you?"

Ais is a temporary member of the party, and although the dungeon expedition has been going on for quite some time now, she hasn't done anything.

Even the oblivious and naturally ditzy Ais felt a sense of urgency.

She wanted to do something to ease her conscience a little.

Liang Yue smiled and said, "Miss Ais, just having you by our side is enough to put my teammates and me at ease."

This is the role of the beautiful swordswoman, Miss Ais.

"Is it enough to just stay by everyone's side?"

Ais tilted her head and saw Lily and the others nodding earnestly.

“Miss Ais, you are Lv5. Just this level alone is enough to put everyone’s mind at ease.”

Look, we're only at Lv2 yet.

Lily sighed, having no doubt about the Hestia Familia's growing prosperity.

However, a sense of urgency was also building up in her heart.

If these early members don't improve quickly, they'll probably be looked down upon by the more powerful new members.

By the way, will Ais join them?

Lily thought to herself, at least they could become good friends.

Liang Yue continued to lead the team to quickly conquer the dungeon, and soon the group arrived at the tenth floor of the dungeon.
