T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 264, page 263: One force breaks all laws, clearing all 11 levels!

The lava giant's unguarded chest vanished in an instant, its firepower capable of instantly killing an elementalist like a can opener on a can. A thin layer of magma burst open, revealing a fiery red crystal beneath, resonating and vibrating like a heart.

The giant struggled fiercely, but Henilakai held it firmly like a wedge, preventing it from moving an inch.

The powerful suppression effect gave the boundary between the virtual and real worlds valuable time to stand still and fire at each other.

The Jailer's Corpse Explosion and the Elemental Fusion Torrent of the Four Primals are considered god-tier skills in stationary DPS phases.

In less than 10 seconds, the Heart of Elements first went dark, and then a dangerous red light flashed.

A deafening explosion erupted from its heart, and the shockwave shattered the lava giant's shell, tearing its body, constructed of fire and rock, to pieces.

The Origin Element had already accumulated enough elemental energy and was about to unleash its next full-screen damage skill. Burning rocks rained down on the platform, attacking indiscriminately and crashing heavily onto the tree roots.

The source element, which had been shining brightly, just like a Christmas tree wrapped with lights and bulbs, suddenly lost power, and the accumulated elemental energy overflowed, turning into a hazy mist.

As if given life, the mist-like spear accelerated to its maximum speed in 0 seconds, as fast as lightning.

French Fries and Jiang Heyi both realized what was happening, but they were too far apart.

The slightly slower prison guard rushed out without hesitation, grabbed the orange tea, and rolled to the side.

"Pfft!"

The sharp weapon pierced through the spirit's body, tearing a huge gash in its solid chest.

"Stupid bear!"

Even knowing that everyone was dead, Golia still lost control of her emotions.

The jailer successfully rescued them, and the offensive was about to be thwarted, but Henila Kai still stood in front of them.

Just like he often did in the Sun Shower Squad.

Henila Kai staggered back and knelt on one knee.

He stared intently at Gloria, then suddenly smiled with relief.

“Sister Gloria… I think I understand why Vanassis is angry.”

The Lava Giant's death murmurs continued, and several more meteors struck.

In the state of shutdown, the fairies wandering among the treetops of the Origin Element hurriedly appeared, either using strange magic to extinguish the fire or injecting their own power into the Origin Element to help it recover.

Henilakai watched all of this.

"If I hadn't met you, I would have been surrounded and wiped out by the mages long ago... I'm not afraid of death, I just... I just hate why He treats us like this!"

"Aren't we all His children?"

With bloodshot eyes and a shattered soul, the incomplete Henilakai roared as he charged toward the Origin Element, swinging his claws and striking the tree roots with a resolute gesture.

The fairies turned around in unison, and countless elemental powers poured out from their hands and eyes.

Henilakai was just an inch away from unleashing his resentment upon the tree, yet, like the lava giant he was trying to stop, he was worlds apart.

Witnessing him vanish into thin air, all the players felt a sense of resentment and indignation.

Jiang Heyi sensed something and looked up.

The health bar, symbolizing the life force of the origin element, lit up again.

It can be attacked again.

"Attack regardless of cost, restrictions on potion use lifted."

The fries turned around in surprise.

Jiang Heyi emphasized: "It's not a forced phase transition; if you output enough power while standing still, you have a chance to overwhelm the opponent!"

Throughout the entire 11 floors, time was not on the players' side.

As elemental bombardment shrinks the safe zone, the choice between full-screen massive damage and instant-kill mechanics becomes increasingly likely.

The fairies appeared in unison, tending to and repairing the damage to the Origin Elements like gardeners. The health bars have already given feedback, showing a significant healing effect!
As time goes on, the mechanics will only become more and more complex, and elementalists, in combination with the monsters that appear in the elemental realm, will have no chance of winning.

Stability can be fatal if it's poorly managed.

There is still a glimmer of hope.

Go all out, go all out for kills!

Before they even got close to the tree roots, the fairies who had instantly killed Henilakai rushed forward, swooping down like locusts flapping their little wings.

"Elemental... Fusion Torrent, Ice and Lightning attributes!"

A torrent of elements, mixed with chill and electric arcs, surged forth from the Primal Staff, while a giant flashlight slowly swept across the dark sky.

The densely packed fairies turned to ashes in droves.

If you are not yet at the maximum level, the four Primarchs will see their experience points rapidly increasing.

The insect mist, which had transformed into a diary, shivered violently.

The wailing of my companions, whose bodies had vanished without a trace, was terrifying!
"This is the true value of our elemental mages. No matter how strong you are, the elements are the kings of magic!"

"Holy crap, a magical close-in weapon system!"

Generate no-fly zones with a single click; the visually stunning scenes are exhilarating.

They temporarily forced most of the fairies back, and seized the opportunity to attack at the boundary between reality and illusion.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. We can't skimp on Peppermint's potions any longer. Eat and drink as much as you want.

Ksha's scrolls could not be used for defense; they were all used for offense.

The bed was the busiest; many fairies hadn't participated in the aerial battle earlier, but they were still continuously supplying energy to heal the Origin Elements.

She circled the field, poking at each player she encountered to reduce the pressure on her output.

At the boundary between reality and illusion, everyone went all out, sparing no effort in unleashing skills that pushed them to their limits.

Under the combined onslaught of the monsters being swept away in the blankets and the burst damage from all sides, the Origin Element's health bar dwindled at a visible rate.

When the health bar was reduced by more than half, the Origin Elemental Tree, which was about to restore its "power supply", trembled violently, and its roots collapsed a little into the ground, giving the impression of tilting and collapsing.

A striking yellow tinge spread from the tree roots to the branches and canopy of the Origin Element, corroding the fruits that symbolized the power of the elements, causing them to wither and rot.

The power that sustains the vigorous vitality of the origin element is rapidly diminishing.

The reckless playstyle caused the Origin Element to freeze, creating a long window for damage output, leaving players stunned.

The idea is that as long as my damage output is high enough, I won't see the BOSS's mechanics and skills.

With sufficient firepower, you can skip stages.

Above the canopy of the Origin Elemental Tree, black mist swirls.

It is the source of darkness.

The withered, yellow leaves rotted and fell.

The dehydrated branches broke off and disappeared.

The elemental fruit has become moldy and rotten.

The lush green branches and vines have dried up and become brittle.

The Origin Element still shines brightly like a lighthouse in the elemental world, but it constantly exudes a heavy sense of decay, with endless black energy rising and gathering into clouds that blot out the sky.

Fruits fell to the ground, vines withered, and leaves scattered, a heavy stillness enveloping the platform.

The sounds of magic and blades striking the tree roots rose and fell, but they brought no business whatsoever to this scene.

As the storm began to rise, the black mist that had been lingering in the sky crashed to the ground.

The rotting fruit, vines, leaves, and the dying, half-dead bodies of fairies merged into the black storm.

A nauseating stench rose straight to the sky, forcefully controlling the boundary between reality and illusion, causing everyone to stop what they were doing.

The vaguely formed silhouette in the darkness was...

"Team, captain..."

Gloria stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

In the darkness, the Rain of Annihilation, wearing a black cloak, revealed only a pale face.

Those eyes, which should have been clear and bright, were now dark and dull.

The diary in Orange Tea's hand, bearing the name of Wolverine, is slowly dissipating. A strange energy is drawing its spirit away from the diary and into the darkness.

Gloria couldn't stop it.

The enamel mug was stunned: "What does this mean? Isn't the Sunrain Squad a support mechanism for players?"

“That’s true,” Chen Shaoyu explained. “However, not releasing Wolfen before entering the current stage will instead cause the [Fragment of Decay] to acquire his power and strengthen itself.”

Wolverine merged into one, then suddenly waved his hand, causing black mist to billow from the platform.

In the diary, apart from the black-and-white boundary of Derell, only Gloria herself remains.

Despite Gloria's attempts, Derell's spirit remained unmoved, seemingly sealed within the diary by some strange energy.

“You did it… not only did you steal the captain’s power, but you also blocked Derell.” Gloria gritted her teeth.

Walvin didn't speak. He slightly bent his fingers, making a loose fist, and the black mist that had been spreading around him surged in and solidified.

Like throwing a javelin, he hurled it into the air before Jiang Heyi could stop him.

The javelin split, turning into countless raindrops that drenched half the platform.

"Be careful, this is the Rain of Annihilation, a dual magic combining necromancy and poison!"

No one dares to disrespect the Rain of Annihilation, Wolfen's signature move.

The group, who had been unleashing a barrage of attacks, immediately huddled together around Zhong Zemo, narrowly escaping death thanks to the magic-suppressing field provided by the small magic-suppressing shield.

"You guys deal the damage, I'll handle him!"

Jiang Heyi took the lead, and before he even got close, Wolwen pulled out a lantern just like Sister Alna's.

A flash of pale light, and Jiang Heyi triggered the healing water scroll that had been left behind as a beggar's version of a floating cannon, which was instantly pierced.

It resembled a long-stored classic, then, like a withered leaf, it became dehydrated and brittle, crumbling at the slightest touch.

The light seemed to have destroyed the structure of the healing water at its source, causing it to decay and rot from the inside out.

"This is also Wolfen's own power?" Jiang Heyi exclaimed in surprise.

“No, this is its own power.” Gloria was following Jiang Heyi.

She is the person here who knows the most about Wolverine magic.

With a wave of his hand, Wolfen unleashed another cloud of black mist.

From within the mist, the fairies, annihilated by the Four Primal Bodies, bared their fangs and claws as they attacked. "Not before, but now!"

Who would have thought that the leader of the Sunrain Squad was actually a necromancer, a class that players jokingly called psychologically disturbed?

Now my major is a perfect match.

Jiang Heyi's Elemental Heart Short Sword is already outdated compared to other members of the guild.

It remains the answer in this version only when dealing with necromancers!

A flash of cold light, and the ocean tide and holy light cleansed everything within sight.

The black mist melted like ice and snow when it encountered the faint light released by the Heart of Elements.

Wolvin's illusory body was struck head-on, causing the mist to churn.

"rest in peace!"

Jiang Heyi lunged forward, plunging the dagger into Wolfen's body. Blazing holy light erupted from within, instantly evaporating it.

Fortunately, it's a job I'm qualified for, so I can rest easy now...

The black fog had not dissipated and still shrouded the platform.

Jiang Heyi swallowed hard. In the distance, the fragmented black mist shell condensed once again.

Wolverine is back!
"Is this reasonable? Are you out of your mind to plan this?"

Jiang Heyi actually swore.

Elemental advantage, one-hit kill, and he's still not dead?
Is pure mechanical weirdness disgusting?

Are you trying to make things difficult for players by putting so many filthy monsters on the 11th floor?
Realizing that Jiang Heyi was not someone to be trifled with, Volwin accelerated, attempting to bypass him and head straight for the others who were still outputting tree roots.

Jiang Heyi glanced at it and saw that the Origin Element's health bar was only one-third full.

There's no turning back with this reckless tactic; we absolutely cannot let this ditch cause us to fail at the last minute.

"Space Slash!"

With holy power, the skill struck first after being delayed, shattering Wolfen's body once again.

However, he also launched his attack.

A clump of sticky, moss-green slime rushed straight into the bed where she was focused on her work, soaking her completely.

The sizzling sound of corrosion suddenly rang out, and the bed felt weak all over, almost causing the knife to slip from his hand and fly away.

The discomfort came on quickly and went away quickly.

The armor on his body flashed, and the slime melted away like snow, turning into black mist and disappearing.

Emperor Kurion's [Lion King's Proof] set is no joke; its superb resistance to negative status effects and self-healing power allowed it to withstand the negative effects of Volwin's skills!

All the previous efforts weren't wasted; without the help of running the storyline, the bed is now powerless.

The profound sense of depth accumulated over six months of gameplay, blurring the lines between reality and virtuality, is revealed at this moment.

Walvin was resurrected for the third time.

Gor'krond is inferior. Even a resurrected lich is weakened and needs the support of the Life Box. What makes you think you can compete?

Jiang Heyi's tight marking meant it was instantly killed as soon as it showed its face, so he changed his tactics.

Before the spatial slash could hit, his body turned into mist and he teleported to a distant point in mid-air, raising his hands above his head as if to lift up the sky.

"What kind of magic's opening move is this?" Jiang Heyi quickly asked.

“This isn’t Wolfen’s magic…” Gloria shook her head.

The black fog thickened, and a nauseating aura of death flowed like water, submerging everyone's feet. The temperature gradually dropped, and everyone's breath turned into white mist.

Spirits dressed in the robes of the Clarity Ones and the Church of Eternal Night burst through the air, densely packed like locusts filling every corner of the sky.

"Is this... hell?" Jiang Heyi felt a chill run down his spine.

With his spirit awakened, Jiang Heyi no longer hesitated and turned back to the main force. Even killing Wolfen with the spatial slash was not enough to quench his thirst.

With only a small portion of his health remaining, the ground where the Origin Element was rooted collapsed, revealing thick tree roots.

When the jailer explodes, attacking exposed tree roots causes even more damage.

He always manages to pull the team up at crucial moments with his unconventional thinking!
"Potato, what's wrong? Can't you handle Walvin?"

The jailer was unleashing a barrage of attacks; who knows how incredible the battle on the other side was.

"Don't ask, the answer is that I planned to save my whole family!"

Jiang Heyi held his breath and used two spells that overdraw his own power to enter the infinite magic mode.

The myriad spirits, as if reincarnated Stuka, pierced everyone's eardrums with their shrieks as they swooped down and accelerated, leaving everyone dizzy and agitated.

"Output, output, output!"

While manipulating spirits to transfer and enhance everyone's output, Orange Tea was also overdrawing Mint's Elemental Fire Bottle.

Mint's items are still as useful as ever; you can always see the explosion effect on the health bar.

No, I still need to steal some damage output.

"Pelican, pelican, help me! I'll give you 10, no, 20... 50 when I get back! Come out and help me!"

Having just been severely injured by the fire elementalist, the pelican seemed to have no memory of its mistake. After being bewitched by the tea god, it made a dazzling appearance, drooling.

With a wide-open mouth, a high-pressure water cannon roars forth.

As long as there are fish, it can dig up the roots of the origin element for you!
"Keep it up, Four Primitives! Your sustained damage output is the highest!"

Jiang Heyi's Tide-Calling Set was already smoking, so he had to encourage the guy next to him who was still firing away.

The Four Primal Bodies were unable to speak, their physical strength had long since run out, and they were now relying on willpower to stay upright.

"Keep it up, boundary between reality and illusion!"

"Damn, don't lose! I've cleared the level for the first time, let's wow the foreign players!"

"Fuck your mother, let your health bar drop!"

The players are even more anxious than the virtual-real boundary they are currently playing.

This was the most agonizing and thrilling live stream they had ever seen.

The immersive viewing experience got everyone's adrenaline pumping.

As if teasing the player, the Origin Element's health bar flashed continuously the moment it reached zero, like Ultraman's timer.

But it only flashed; it didn't disappear, nor did it fall.

Fortunately, the boundary between the real and virtual worlds didn't look up to observe; otherwise, the little design of not falling down even after returning to zero would have been infuriating.

Anyway, some of the spectators couldn't catch their breath.

"Boom!"

The dull thud was the pleasant sound of the tree roots collapsing further, the uneven force on the whole, and the collapse of the primordial element.

At that very moment, the spirits that were already gnawing at the boundary between reality and illusion began to scream in agony.

They scratched their bodies desperately, like drowning people trying to grasp the boundary between reality and illusion.

The terrifying attraction stems from the primordial element itself, which acts like a miniature black hole, sucking in countless ghostly spirits the moment it collapses.

The Origin Element's health bar has reached zero and no longer flashes.

"Please, please don't have a 0-health mechanic."

Please!

Zhong Zemo was truly exhausted.

Just now, in order to create space for the bed to attack, my physical body attracted the attacks of the spirits, and now my body is broken and tattered.

The players held their breath.

Ten seconds felt like an entire game session.

The roots of the Origin Element Tree rapidly weathered and withered, and the leaves fell away.

Seven streams of light were injected into the bodies of seven people at the boundary between the real and the virtual world.

The seabird crouching in the upper right corner of the player panel cried out loudly.

"You have a new email! You have a new email!"

Of the seven people, only the fries were still standing; the others were lying down.

Realizing they had truly passed the level, they couldn't even muster the will to move.

This is the most disgusting and difficult level I've ever played.

Email sender: Origin Element

"You have conquered the dungeon, the Underground Temple of the Clarity, all combat levels."

"Current achievement - First clear across the entire server".

"Special completion reward, the [Origin Element Statue], has been distributed to the guild."

"The [Origin Element] furniture set is now fully unlocked in the Homestead system."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heyi got up.

"All combat levels... does that mean there are no combat levels on floor 12?"

French fries were also dumbfounded, and the two stared at each other.

But during the previous call, Elsa clearly experienced an attack by the Church of Eternal Night on the 12th floor.

Did they resolve the problem themselves, leaving only simple story episodes on the 12th floor?

Chen Shaoyu is smiling.

Although the 11 floors are connected, how long will it take to discover the problem at the boundary between the virtual and real layers?

Jiang Heyi frowned. He examined the email back and forth and checked the information about the extra items in the guild. He was about to dispel his doubts.

He inexplicably clicked on a previously saved email containing compensation for fixing a server bug.

Email sender... Stars and Campfire.

The same applies to the text messages sent during the qualifying rounds.
