As soon as the correct sound rang out, Thanatos and Ceole were startled and quickly stepped back.

"[Sea Salt Lemon]" I shouted excitedly as soon as I saw that I had successfully entered the code.

"It actually worked! I knew it... Hey? Why are you all backing away?"

Seeing the two of them retreating to the back, looking wary, [Sea Salt Lemon] was taken aback.

Just as she was about to ask why, a notification suddenly sounded in front of her.

Thanatos has spared you from one death!

"???"

What the heck?

He had just been granted a reprieve from death?

When did this happen?

【Sea Salt Lemon】was still confused, but then Thanatos enveloped her in shadow and moved her to a more distant location.

The next second, a black aura burst through the ground and condensed into a tall figure in front of everyone.

【Hungry Knight - Esso lv.279】

A black knight, dressed entirely in black, stood tall before the crowd, his entire body clad in armor, even his black horse was fully armed with horse armor.

Unsurprisingly, this was the fourth knight Thanatos and his companions were searching for.

It is also a terrifying existence that requires the combined efforts of the former twenty-two members of the Wheel of Fate to seal away.

"Hey, Thanatos. Isn't that your old colleague and brother? Why don't you go over and have a chat to rekindle your old friendship?"

Seeing the black smoke billowing from Esso's frame, Keole asked Thanatos with a sense of relief.

But at this moment, Thanatos had already switched to the form of a gray horse knight and was facing Esso with full readiness.

"Do you think the other person looks like someone you can communicate with normally? If there weren't any problems, I wouldn't have asked you to come along."

With that, Thanatos raised his gray spear high, pointing it at Esso in the center of the arena.

"Enough talk, let's get straight to the fight."

Faced with this answer, Kjoler shook his head and smiled.

"Okay, I knew this mission wouldn't be much easier than the last one."

Having abandoned his unrealistic fantasies, Kjoler took an arrow from behind his back, nocked it on his longbow, and aimed it at Esso in the center of the battlefield.

Esso stood silently in place, as if he had not yet fully woken up.

But after sensing the hostility emanating from Kjoler, he suddenly raised his head.

【Famine Godhood - Devouring Soil】

Esso instantly transformed into an invisible black shadow, directly dodging the arrow shot by Kjol.

Seeing his arrow, which was supposed to hit, being dodged, a helpless smile appeared on Kyogre's face.

"As expected, I knew this guy was no ordinary person. He was able to directly erode the luck on the arrow, rendering the prerequisite of a guaranteed hit invalid."

"If I'm not mistaken, this shouldn't be something a simple Famine Authority could accomplish. Besides the Void, only that thing could possibly possess such a corrosive effect..."

Keole didn't finish his sentence, but Thanatos, who was standing nearby, understood what he meant.

In addition to his original authority over famine, Esso also possesses a trace of power from the end times.

This is the only terrifying force capable of knocking them all to the ground.

At this moment, [Sea Salt Lemon] was looking at all of this with a blank expression, clearly not understanding what had happened in those few seconds.

She felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and then she was teleported behind the two of them. Immediately afterwards, she saw Kjolnir's arrow shoot at a dark shadow, but nothing happened.

"What's going on now? Is this the boss fight?"

【Sea Salt Lemon】Looks up at the black horse knight who has regained his form in the center.

"Is that the boss we're going to fight?"

Why is Kuku emitting such scary black smoke...?

Are you serious about having over 200 levels? Is this really something you'd have to face in a three-player dungeon?

No wonder it's called a Twilight-level dungeon, and no wonder the remaining two slots are reserved for NPC characters.

So, this is the level of boss they're facing?

But it seems like the other two can't beat them either.

"Am I going to have to go too? Don't mess with me... How am I supposed to beat that thing? And that time I was exempted from death because of him, right...?"

Just as [Sea Salt Lemon] was getting anxious, a message suddenly flashed in her message bar.

You hold the line while we find some outside help.

Need outside help?

Now?

Before [Sea Salt Lemon] could react, a shockwave from the explosion suddenly rushed towards her.

Thanatos has spared you from one death!

"..."

What the hell is going on? What is the point of her coming here?!

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

The cat rushed into the Hall of Heroes, looked around, and quickly found a figure sitting idly on the high platform.

【Heroic Spirit】Destruction Witch - Hiti lv.274

"Phew... What a coincidence? The other party is actually still here."

Cat felt a sense of relief and immediately ran to Hiti.

"Um... Witch, we... we need your help... to do something for us, I wonder if you have time..."

Faced with the cat that suddenly ran in front of her, Hilary looked puzzled, then waved her hand impatiently.

"Go away... I'm already annoyed, I don't have time to deal with your little things."

Seeing that Hilary rejected her without hesitation, Cat Cat, as expected, pulled out a stack of photos.

"I knew you wouldn't agree so easily, but what if I bring this out?"

As he spoke, he shoved one of the photos directly into Hiti's hand.

Hiti was about to refuse, but when she caught a glimpse of the white figure above her, her pupils instantly contracted.

"Sister... Sister, wait! Where did you get this thing from?!"
