Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 463 Where is the shortest route?

A few summoned demons pose little threat to a hero-level reincarnator. Given enough time, they would realize the problem and eliminate the culprit. However, compared to Zhang Lang's efficient kill, their fierce battle with the lesser demons and horned demons looked like foolishness…

"We're just inexperienced!" Olissis said, somewhat indignantly, stepping forward and pointing at Zhang Lang. "When we encounter a monster that doesn't resort to tricks and schemes, if we unite, we'll be just as good as you!"

Zhang Lang completely ignored the guy's taunts and turned to say, "Keep going, we're almost there!"

"Don't ignore me!"

Olissis was furious, but luckily her companions held her back from charging forward.

Zhang Lang and Lei Ting had traveled this route many times and had basically cleared it out. At most, they occasionally encountered some wandering demons. The group arrived at the Cerberus's lair without any major incidents and entered the sixth level through the portal.

Although they knew this level was shrouded in thick fog, they were still awestruck by the vast expanse of white once they entered…

"With this visibility... how are we supposed to defend ourselves if a monster suddenly charges out...?"

Murong Lan broke out in a sweat. As a sniper, her eyesight was one of her greatest assets. In this place with visibility of less than twenty meters, she instantly felt that the sniper rifle in her hand was no longer safe...

"Everyone keep up!" Zhang Lang turned around to remind them, "You'll fall behind if you're not careful!"

The heroes nodded and immediately changed formation. Those with shields, high armor, and strong survivability stayed on the outside, while snipers like Xiang Murong Lan, mages like Michiko and Angelica, and useless characters like Peng Junxiu stayed in the inner circle. The group followed Zhang Lang closely as they moved forward.

Zhang Lang hadn't really explored this level much, always just following a fixed route. As a result, a huge number of monsters were hidden in the thick fog, and a few would occasionally rush out to attack. However, Zhang Lang was usually able to anticipate their moves, using Tiger's Roar and Hunter's Slayer in advance, and then finishing them off with a critical hit on the Spirit Rhinoceros in a double attack.

Even if several monsters occasionally appeared and there wasn't enough time to kill them all, Zhang Lang's reminder helped the others prepare, preventing them from becoming flustered...

In conclusion, we safely passed the sixth level.

The group finally arrived at the seventh floor!

Starting from this level, we enter the deeper levels, and the map instantly expands several times over!

Although Zhang Lang had done a lot of work on the seventh floor these past few days, the floor was simply too large, and the number of monsters he cleared out was still only a small minority... Especially the many mechanical monsters that appeared in groups, he often only relied on his agility to deal with the leaders with bounties, leaving a large number of low-level monsters wandering around.

These monsters pose no threat to Zhang Lang acting alone, but they are a big problem for the main force now.

In the previous levels, the monsters would come in groups of three to five at most. Even the "large army" gathered by those demon summoners consisted of only a hundred or so small demons.

However, upon reaching the seventh floor, they frequently encountered mixed forces composed of hundreds of various mechanical monsters. These monsters were made of steel and iron, highly mobile, and equipped with modern weapons. Under concentrated fire, they posed a considerable threat. Thanks to Qin Jie's barrier and Angelica's shield, they were able to repel the attacks of these mechanical forces time and time again without taking any damage!

"Boom!" With the explosion of a rocket, five or six robots were blown away. Thunder put down the still smoking rocket launcher and glanced at Olissis next to him.

"The head-on battle you've been waiting for is here! Feeling good?"

Just then, a mechanical motorcycle came rushing over. Olissis leaped into the air, and in the instant she flew over the motorcycle, she struck out with her sword, piercing the motorcycle's battery and finishing it off.

"I'm just not very good at dealing with large groups of enemies!" the kid stubbornly insisted after landing. "You'll see what I'm capable of when we encounter a single, powerful monster!"

Thunder snorted coldly and turned to look at the others. He found that they were all fighting with tense expressions. Judging from their solemn expressions, it was clear that apart from Olisis, the others had not let their guard down and had realized how difficult it was to get to this point.

These dungeon quests are held every few years, and each time some heroic-level players participate. So far, the best result is only the seventh floor. This shows that conquering the seventh floor is quite difficult even for these relatively inexperienced heroic-level newcomers!

While the monsters on the seventh floor were very difficult, they had one advantage: the weapons carried by the mechanical monsters could also be used by the Reincarnators, and ammunition was inexhaustible. After discovering this, in order to conserve their ammunition, they dismantled these cheap weapons and used them against the monsters.

To make a long story short, amidst a barrage of gunfire, the group passed through the seventh floor and, through the underground portal of the subway transfer station, arrived at their final destination: the dark underground palace on the eighth floor!

Upon reaching this level, Olissis took out her Lucky Pencil, sharpened it, and wrote down the question: "At this crossroads in front of me, which direction is the shortest route to the Lord of the Underworld?"

Then, he broke off the pencil tip and wrote "front," "back," "left," "right," "up," and "down" on the six squares respectively.

This decision was made after discussion. They didn't ask which direction led to the lord, because even if it was a long detour, as long as they eventually found the lord, the direction was considered correct...

They didn't just say "lord," because it might refer to lords on other levels...

They didn't simply ask which direction led to the lord, but rather the route. Asking only for direction might lead to a straight line pointing to the lord's location, like a compass that only tells you which direction the lord is, but has no clue how to get there by detour...

It has to be said that although it's a unique item, it's easy to run into trouble if used improperly... No wonder that even after all this time, and even after reaching Hero level, Olissis still hasn't finished using this pencil. It seems he's learned his lesson the hard way and won't use it lightly.

Having set the questions and written down the answers, the group proceeded through the spacious tunnel and soon arrived at the first intersection. There was a wall in front of them, with only paths on the left and right sides.

Zhang Lang explored this place the day before yesterday, and he chose the left side. But today, watching Olissis throw the lucky pencil again and again, the result was right five times in a row!

"So you chose the wrong path at the very first intersection yesterday!" the virtual voice in Zhang Lang's mind complained. "Looks like without this item, you basically have no chance of clearing this level... This mission requires reincarnators to have various abilities; it's not just about being good at fighting!"

"Going it alone all the time, your abilities are ultimately limited..."
