In this chaotic world, it all started when they found an elf girl.

Chapter 562 Rhea: Showing off your love will lead to a quick death!

With only fifty meters to the entrance to the seventy-second floor, Roy abruptly stopped.

Fallen Goddess Rhea!

The goddess had a perfect face, dignified and elegant, exuding a kind aura and a faint divine power. She was peaceful and serene, and did not seem like a dangerous being at all.

Roy watched Rhea warily, and sure enough, she appeared. He didn't continue to flee. If Oceanus could catch up to the surface, Rhea could certainly do the same. Instead, he decided to talk to her; perhaps he would gain something unexpected.

Riveria followed Roy's gaze and saw Rhea as well. She felt a sense of suffocation. To encounter a god on this floor was obvious; it was a fallen deity who had willingly merged into the underground city.

"Why can't we just leave?!"

Rivera bit her lip so hard that she didn't even notice it was bleeding. Her fragile heart was on the verge of collapse, and crystal-clear tears welled up in her eyes.

The main god returned the favor, and then the grace was sealed away. Then he encountered the king of land, Behemoth, and the tyrant of the sea, Leviathan. Now even fallen gods and immortals have appeared!

It's as if the whole world is against them!

At that moment, she desperately wished Roy hadn't come down to save her, and that she could have just died there!

Rivera raised her head slightly, looking at Roy's face through teary eyes, feeling extremely guilty. How much more danger would she cause him to encounter?

Roy had no time to pay attention to Riveria; his eyes were fixed ahead. "It seems inappropriate to meet with Rhea here. This is our third meeting!"

Rhea was also sizing up Roy.

"The passage to the seventy-third floor is covered by a barrier; that's your doing!" Roy said, forcing him to take action against Behemoth and Leviathan.

"Yes!"

Rhea readily admitted that, compared to Oceanus, she had a little more self-respect and didn't want to use the overwhelming power of a god to deal with the children of the lower realm.

Therefore, she chose to seal the passage back to the upper level. Roy being killed by monsters, or lacking supplies and trapped here, would be the best outcome.

But Roy was far beyond her expectations!

Unexpectedly, Roy single-handedly defeated the specialized level 10 Behemoth and Leviathan, making the Earth's power even stronger and breaking through the barrier—it was utterly absurd. Now, she had no choice but to take action herself.

"Why? Aren't you targeting the gods on the surface?" Roy asked. Unlike Oceanus, Rhea was actually after him.

This made Roy's heart leap into his throat. Being targeted by a fallen god with divine power was a good thing, and he had to live in constant fear!

"You don't know the reason?"

Upon hearing Roy's question, Rhea's previously calm face turned hostile, and she coldly replied, "Thief, leave her powers behind!"

Upon hearing this, Roy suddenly realized that they wanted to kill him and take back the power of the land.

"Riveria, I may not be able to protect you anymore. Leave here. Don't worry, the monsters up there won't attack you!" Roy looked down at the anxious Riveria and put her down.

With all seventy-nine floors under control, even if Riveria were just an ordinary person now, Roy was confident that she would not be harmed in any way.

But it's uncertain whether she'll stay here.

"Do you want me to abandon you?"

Riveria's voice choked with sobs. Behemoth and Leviathan attacked simultaneously, but Roy never flinched. Yet, facing the fallen gods, he simply let her escape.

Although Rhea's target was Roy, the truth is that Roy came because of her and was in danger because of her, so how could Riveria possibly abandon him?

"Then you'll only be a hindrance if you stay here—" Roy opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say those heartless words. He said earnestly, "I'll get back alive!"

"Can you promise me that?" Rivera asked.

Roy was speechless. How could he guarantee something like that? Was it really that easy to deal with fallen gods and immortals?

At that moment, Rhea interrupted Roy and Riveria: "No, she wants to stay too!"

Roy's face darkened: "Your target is me, not Riveria. Let her go!"

"That might have been the case before."

Rhea's gaze remained fixed on Roy. She knew that Kronos had contacted Roy before, but it seemed that he hadn't gained any advantage.

It's unbelievable that a god with absolute power and hundreds of millions of years of experience could be manipulated by a human in his early twenties.

Moreover, she was never able to see through Roy.

There's no guarantee that nothing unexpected will happen this time, so she needs to add an extra layer of insurance by taking Riveria hostage, which will at least prevent Roy from fully committing to the battle.

Seeing Rhea's calculating eyes, Roy could easily guess what she was thinking. He could only curse inwardly, "She's a god, yet she's so cautious!"

Riveria caught the fear in Rhea's eyes and was even more shocked. Only Roy could be so cautious towards mortals, and the other party's methods were even more despicable than Oceanus's.

"If you die, she can live!"

Rhea said coldly that she had to reclaim the earth power from Roy for that person, and that this matter was even more important than killing the gods.

"No!!" Before Roy could react, Rivera exclaimed, fearing he might do something foolish. She gripped Roy's large hand tightly with her small one and said firmly, "If you die, I'll kill myself too!"

Roy looked at Rhea, shrugged, and said, "I can't help it. Your condition is that I commit suicide and spare Riveria." But if I commit suicide, she'll die with me. Since I'm going to die anyway, why bother committing suicide?

Rhea felt the cold dog food being slapped in her face, and her eyes grew increasingly hostile. Didn't these two scumbags know that showing off their love would only lead to their demise?

Roy said, "Rivia, run!"

Before he finished speaking, Roy charged toward Rhea with his sword, teleporting behind her with spatial magic and slashing fiercely with the blade crackling with golden lightning.

Rivera took a running start, and was only a dozen meters away from the passage back to the seventy-second floor.

With the sharp blade pressed against her neck, Rhea remained unfazed: "Your powers have expanded to the seventy-ninth floor. Fighting on these floors is disadvantageous to me."

"So—come in!"

A magnificent and domineering divine power erupted from Rhea, transforming into an endless dark curtain that spread wildly, instantly enveloping Roy and Riveria and dragging them into a completely new and eerie realm.

Looking around, the dark blue-black rock walls form a huge cave, filled with a chilling atmosphere. Occasionally, blue light flashes through the rock walls, creating an eerie and terrifying scene.

Roy frowned. A different dimension similar to "Thousand Cang Ice Garden"? He looked at Rivera, who had returned to his side, "Now you can't leave even if you want to."

"But I don't seem as scared as I thought." Riveria held Roy's large hand tightly, staying by his side, even if it meant going to hell.
