Kiyono Makoto took a deep breath, carefully controlling the giant water serpent, and quickly headed to the ambush point with the girls.

at the same time.

the other side.

"Damn it, it's a trap!"

A male player accidentally stepped into a freezing trap set by Glass. The runes beneath his feet exploded, turning into countless blue ice shards that enveloped him.

Although the damage wasn't high, the chill was intense, making him shiver.

"With so little damage, those players who chose the Ghost Hunter faction seem to be nothing special... Ah!"

Before he could finish speaking, a scream suddenly rang out from the side.

Eriri's drawing of the bomb was triggered by another demon player. The bomb's damage was not high, certainly not as good as a real firearm, but Futaba had added chili powder to it beforehand.

Suddenly the bomb exploded, catching several players off guard. They were immediately hit, their eyes filled with tears and snot, and they coughed incessantly.

After becoming demonic, these hostile players have slightly improved all their attributes, with the most noticeable improvement in their sense of smell. Now, being smeared with chili powder in their faces doesn't cause much damage, but it's extremely humiliating.

"hateful!"

"asshole!"

"They actually stuffed chili powder into the trap! I'm going to kill them!"

"There are more traps here, let's get out of there quickly and avoid stepping on them!"

"..."

Having learned their lesson, the players of the Demon Path faction became more vigilant and quickly discovered the various traps scattered in the dark grass.

Under this subtle guidance, the group slowly began to step into the ambush canyon.

"Wait a moment."

Looking at the small canyon ahead, the three-eyed male player frowned:

“Something’s not right… The canyon is too narrow. If an enemy were to stand above us and attack, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

"Stop pretending to be smart and hurry up and catch up." A male player with a bad temper glared at them fiercely. "They're just a bunch of rats. Let's go together and crush them."

Another female player suggested:

"How about we split up and Dad goes to scout ahead?"

The three-meter-tall giant ghost father turned his head and looked over, his spider-like compound eyes darting around, his voice deep and hoarse, exuding murderous intent:

"Useless trash, are you trying to order me around?"

"..."

The female player's face turned pale, and she bit her lower lip, remaining silent.

"You're nothing but a bunch of imposters." The spider demon sister's voice was icy as she crossed her arms. "Recognize yourselves, or I'll tear you to pieces."

The three-eyed male player watched this unfold and sighed helplessly.

They were just a temporary team, so there was bound to be backstabbing and infighting. There was no basis for trust between the team members, and the evil spirits didn't take them seriously at all, so there was no way to communicate with them.

"...I still feel there is danger."

The three-eyed male player quietly stopped, turned around, and walked to the base of a large tree, looking up at it:

"elder brother."

"..."

The tree was quiet.

Spider-Ghost Brother was right above, clearly too lazy to bother with him.

Clearly, there is a hierarchy of contempt among the evil spirits, and it is even more undisguised, with each one filled with malice towards the other.

The three-eyed male player gritted his teeth and quickly took out a red and white fan-shaped piece of roasted meat from his personal backpack.

An enticing aroma immediately wafted out.

"what is that?"

"I want to eat!"

The spider demon brother, with a spider's body and a human head, slid down quickly.

The three-eyed male player quietly took a half step back and said calmly:

"This is a super barbecue I got from another world. If you want to eat it, come with me."

The spider demon brother turned his head and approached with murderous intent:

"Are you ordering me around?!"

“It’s a trade.” The three-eyed male player stiffened slightly, quickly tossed over the delicious roasted meat, and then explained, “I still have more roasted meat. As long as you work with me and rescue Mom, I’ll give you two more pieces of roasted meat.”

Spider-Demon swallowed the roasted meat in one gulp, a satisfied look on his face:

"It tastes just as good as human food... Deal!"

Once transformed into a demon, it can no longer eat human food. Even if it is forced into its mouth, it will feel disgusting and uncomfortable, like eating a slug.

Aside from special beings like Nezuko or Tamayo, other demons simply cannot eat human food; their diet consists only of humans.

Now, tasting a delicacy that was in no way inferior to human flesh and blood, the spider demon brother was extremely satisfied, his expression greedy as he licked his lips:

"You promised five pieces of grilled meat. If you're missing even one piece, you're dead."

The three-eyed male player looked grim.

"I clearly said two pieces of roasted meat..."

"Useless trash, are you trying to bargain with me?"

"...Five yuan it is."

A ruthless glint flashed in the three-eyed male player's eyes as he silently agreed.

These grilled meats are not ordinary food, but rather from the anime/manga series "Toriko." Each piece costs 100 points, and eating them can quickly restore a large amount of stamina and health, and greatly alleviate fatigue.

"Brother, let your puppet lie in wait and remain still. We'll sneak around from behind; perhaps that way we can rescue Mother first..."

The three-eyed male player lowered his voice, formulated a plan, and disappeared along with the figure of the Spider Ghost Brother.

at the same time.

Above the small canyon, Eriri closed her eyes, watching every move below through the crows in the treetops.

"They have all entered the canyon as planned."

"call……"

Kiyono Makoto let out a soft breath and looked at the girls beside him:

"The real head-on confrontation is about to begin."

The current instance is a standard combat instance. Tactics can add icing on the cake, but they can't kill. Ultimately, only one thing determines the outcome: strength.

The girls nodded in agreement, ready for action.

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms over her chest, her eyes sparkling:

"I can't wait!"

The Frost Spear I summoned before was just ordinary, but what will happen after a nine-fold increase?

It's definitely something to look forward to.

"...Let's get started."

Rio Futaba decisively pressed the button in her hand.

boom.

The landmines that had been planted in advance exploded with a loud bang, sending debris flying everywhere.

The Spider Demon father, who was walking ahead, subconsciously stopped, while the demon players quietly gathered together, warily surveying their surroundings. The formation that had been quietly drawn apart began to quietly converge because of the suddenly detonated trap.

"Right now."

Kiyono Makoto took a deep breath and clenched his right fist.

The giant water serpents surrounding his body suddenly flew out, swooping down from the air before exploding into a torrential downpour.

Water magic requires extremely precise control, and the farther the distance, the more difficult it is to manipulate. Therefore, Kiyono Makoto did not expect water magic to kill from a distance; his main goal was to apply the wet status to the opponent.

So... healing water magic, that's the one!

Deal damage?

Others are unable to move and are trembling all over; that's also a unique form of output, isn't it?

"Oh no, someone's attacking!"

The players in the demon faction below were very vigilant and reacted the moment Kiyono Makoto made his move, trying to dodge and counterattack. Unfortunately, the canyon was only so big, and there was nowhere to hide.

As the rain poured down on them, the players all looked bewildered.

what's the situation?

It rained?

How come there was no damage at all?

"This is so strange... Ah..."

The male players in the Demon Path faction didn't react at all, but the two female players did.

The two female players felt a cool sensation flow into their bodies, followed by an indescribable shiver that swept over them, causing them to tremble and collapse to their knees with a thud, breathing rapidly and shaking uncontrollably.

Even the Spider Demon Sister wasn't spared, but she managed to brace herself against the boulder beside her and didn't shamefully kneel down.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"Could it be some kind of skill specifically designed for women?"

Some people quickly guessed the truth.

As they were talking, a small dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky.
