Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 612 A Challenge Beyond Level 100!
Following the appearance of numerous powerful dogs in the first round, the monsters that appeared in the second round also left Seiya and Sun Yue speechless.

While it's true that only one monster appears each round, this so-called "one" is always extremely subtle in a certain way.

The first round consists of a group of "majority dogs" that are essentially one, while the second round consists of "parasitic bears" that look like bears but have seven long, snake-like tentacles on their backs.

The tentacles are the main body, and each one has the ability to attack individually. Only by cutting them all off can it be killed.

However, compared to the "Most Mighty Dogs" in the first round, the "Parasitic Bear" in the second round, although of a higher level, was defeated by Seiya and Sun in no time.

After all, compared to the previous "most guard dogs", the "parasitic bear" may also seem to have "multi-headed" attributes, but since they are connected together, they cannot act alone.

If they can only attack separately, then dealing with Seiya and Sun Raku, who are both skilled and agile, would be far too easy.

The third round is "Goblin Berserker".

The fourth round is "Dynamite Boar".

The fifth round is "Poison Eagle". Since it is a flying monster, Seiya and Sun were completely helpless against it at first.

Fortunately, Seiya's grappling hook proved invaluable in the end. When he pulled "Poison Eagle" down from the sky, Sun, who had been passively taking hits, was already seething with anger, so he hacked it to pieces with a flurry of blows.

The sixth round is "Armored Larva".

The seventh round is "Execution Leopard".

The eighth round is the "Two-Headed White Tiger".

The ninth round is "Armored Golem".

From the first round to the ninth round, Seiya and Sun Raku's teamwork became increasingly seamless.

And apart from the first round of "Most of the dogs", Sun Raku, with Seiya's help, did not lose again in the next eight rounds.

Furthermore, since the monsters prepared by Vaisyashu were almost all at least elite level, after nine rounds, even with experience sharing, Seiya's original level of 10 was directly pushed to level 20.

Moreover, this was under the condition that Seiya and Sun Raku were both wearing the special equipment "Deadly Collar" given to them by Vaisyashu.

The "Deadly Collar" effect reduces the experience points gained by the wearer to half, but in return, the attribute points gained with each level up are 2.5 times the original amount!
When Sun first learned that the "Fatal Collar" would reduce the amount of experience points gained, he was extremely unhappy about wearing it.

In contrast, Sun Le immediately realized that this thing was simply a true artifact!

Characters in "Shangri-La Border" also have a level cap. If you wear the "Fatal Collar" and reach the maximum level, although the leveling difficulty is twice that of ordinary players, the attributes gained at the maximum level are 2.5 times that of ordinary players!
Because of the curses of Gickwell and Lucaon, Seiya and Sun are unable to equip most of their equipment slots, putting them at a significant disadvantage in terms of attributes compared to players of the same level.

If they had this "fatal collar," the extra attribute points they gained from leveling up would be enough to make up for the difference in equipment.

Moreover, since the attribute points gained from upgrading are increased by 2.5 times, it's naturally more beneficial to equip this item as early as possible.

After all, you've already gained attribute points from leveling up, and you can't gain them again.

For example, Seiya is currently level 10 and wearing the Fatal Collar, while Sun is level 29 and wearing it. The difference between them is 2.5 times the upgrade attribute difference of 19 levels!
After nine rounds of monsters, Seiya, whose level was originally lower, leveled up from 10 to 20, while Sun only leveled up from 29 to 32. Although the "Fatal Collar" deducted half of their experience points, Seiya was already quite satisfied with his leveling speed.

Especially someone who had worked tirelessly for a day and a night to finally surpass him in level, if they knew that his level had caught up with his again and that he had gained 2.5 times the attribute bonus, that guy's mentality would probably collapse again.

"It seems that what Boss Rabbit called a test was nothing special."

If we defeat the final wave of monsters, we'll have passed the test, right?

After achieving consecutive flawless playthroughs, Sun began to feel smug and arrogant.

The final round of monsters was brought by Vaisya himself, and when he threw the monster, which was covered in chains, into the arena, he also said that Seiya and the others did not need to defeat the monsters in this final round.

They only need to survive ten minutes against this monster to pass the test.

As Seiya and his companion looked at the monster that Vaisyashu had thrown down and used their appraisal skills to see its level and attributes, they were both dumbfounded.

"The Obsessive Tree Demon" is a level 120 tree demon. The description says that it was a magician who was obsessed with immortality in a certain era. He eventually turned into a tree demon. Although he has a long life, he has become what he is now because of his obsession.

Originally, once the level difference between a player and a monster exceeded a certain threshold, the monster's data would become undetectable.

However, in this "deadly arena," Seiya and his companions seem to have gained certain privileges, allowing them to observe the levels and attributes of these monsters.

When they saw the level of 120, Seiya and Sun were truly stunned.

As far as they knew, the maximum level players in Xiangkai should only be around level 100, but now level 120 monsters have appeared here!

Does that mean that as the "Shangri-La Border" storyline progresses, the player's level cap will continue to increase, and level 100 will not be the level cap?
This level 120 "Delusional Tree Demon" is likely a monster from an unknown region. So far, no player has fought against it or even encountered it.

The moment the chains were released, the Delusion Tree Demon launched an attack on Seiya and Sunra.

And don't be fooled by the fact that the opponent is a mage wielding a staff; he doesn't need to chant at all when using magic, and he can even start his spells with zero frames!
Thick tree roots emerged from the ground and, like snakes, began to coil around Seiya and his companion.

Monsters of level 120, whether it's Seiya at level 20 or Sun Raku at level 32, are practically dying the moment they get hit.

In addition to the massive tree roots that bombard the entire field with AOE, the opponent also uses magic such as homing fireballs, dense ice spikes, and lightning storms that can move on the ground, making it a super magic turret!
Sun Le used skills such as "Extreme Boost", "Beast Blood Boiling" and "Graceful Steps" to almost max out his speed, rushing towards his opponent while dodging various attacks.

However, just as the deadly cleaver was about to strike its opponent, it was blocked by the chains floating around the Delusion Tree Demon, and it was directly bounced away.

However, Sun Le, who was thrown back, did not show any sign of frustration, because his attack was just a feint.

Having cooperated for so long, they had long realized that as a pure magical turret, the opponent couldn't possibly be completely without any defensive capabilities.

"Super Acceleration + Graceful Movements + Leap"

"Heaven will punish you—!"
