If she wants to understand Eugene more comprehensively, she needs to keep up with the research.

It's not too late to react then.

"Hehe, I hope you can always stay wise~."

After Eugene finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the canyon.

Because of Reed's new magic, he can control the weight of certain objects within the area.

It's similar to a gravity spell in the original work, but Reed's magic allows him to move the area at will and has a smaller load.

For someone skilled in melee combat, he is a highly efficient support character, capable of applying debuffs like imbalance and difficulty to the opponent.

It can also be used here to quickly collect magic stones.

Seeing the countless magic stones rising from the ground, everyone was too excited to speak.

Each of them unleashed their supernatural abilities and began a frantic collection.

While they were busy cleaning up the battlefield, Eugene's gaze drifted into the distance.

He squinted, his heightened senses instantly transforming into a telescope.

At the edge of the field of vision, in the excavated cave, besides the scattered sparks and ashes, dark shadows began to wriggle.

The weakest of the monsters guarding the gate is naturally the man-eating flower.

Those scaly monsters, their petals closed and resembling giant green serpents, cautiously slithered outwards.

Aside from the instinctive fear of flames, it was most likely also because its manipulator sensed the extraordinary nature of that attack.

Eugene remained inactive, choosing instead to observe from a distance.

He wasn't in a hurry to eat the giant flowers.

Once inside the cave, hundreds of them were no big deal.

During this period, thanks to supplies from the business area, that giant flower had already spawned hundreds of man-eating flower larvae.

Once Olivas gives the order, she can even wither herself to forcibly hatch them all.

In the original storyline, the Hermes Familia, with the help of Eisbert, finally defeated the giant flower, only to be surrounded by a newly formed carnivorous plant swarm.

If it weren't for their desperate efforts to protect Lefia while she cast her spell, everyone would have died in the cave.

However, this is actually due to their lack of strength.

The presence of this lingering beast tide at the entrance indirectly indicates that there is a terrifying existence within the cave that is far beyond imagination.

Logically speaking, level 2 and 3 personnel who can't even get past the beast tide at the gate should have chosen to retreat at this point.

But what can you do when they're "adventurers"?

They live by adventure, and they can die because of adventure.

Whether due to a lack of intelligence or overestimating themselves, venturing into the unknown and getting surrounded, this outcome is actually quite normal and nothing to lament.

Eugene waited quietly as his powerful subordinates prepared themselves.

They only leisurely prepared to enter enemy territory after collecting all the magic stones along the way.

"Is that the man-eating plant the captain was talking about?"

Reed looked at the giant snake peeking out from in front of the cave with a serious expression.

He learned about the characteristics of these monsters from Eugene.

When they curl up their petals, they may look unassuming, but they are the most difficult to deal with.

Because what's encased in those tough scales is precisely their weakness—the magic stone!

"Then it's up to you."

"Let me see how well you manage to fight this first battle."

At Eugene's command, six swift figures shot out!

They each chose a carnivorous plant and, with keen reflexes and speed, quickly approached the enormous, emerald-green body.

Immediately, without giving them a chance to encircle, they launched an attack!

"Awooo!!"

Guros roared in mid-air.

Relying on its own hardness, the stone dragon spun in the air and crashed down, like a giant rock hitting the head of a man-eating flower, causing it to fall heavily to the ground.

Directly below him, the ram-headed giant, empowered by superhuman strength, swung his heavy metal hammer-spear in a wide arc, and with a deep whooshing sound, struck his target hard!

The force of the fall, combined with the monstrous strength of Fu's swing, created a powerful impact that shattered the monster's core!

boom!

In a single glance, the giant flower turned to ashes.

What followed was an even more dazzling display of teamwork from the heretics.

Rey's magical clones continued firing in the air. By using the human clone to pull monsters and the bird clone to sacrifice itself, she quickly took down two carnivorous plants.

Meanwhile, Spider Girl Rani used her incredibly strong spider silk to tightly bind a target.

Wright then leaped onto its head and used the double-edged blades assigned to him by Eugene to pry open the tightly closed scales.

At this moment, Rani used her knight's lance to pierce the terrifying giant mouth, easily completing the harvest.

As for Reed, his magic was not particularly effective against these larger monsters.

But the lizardmen are natural-born melee masters of martial arts.

With years of honing his skills, Reed has extensive experience in slashing.

With the help of the high-level weapon crafted by Chun, he decapitated the giant flower with a few leaps and a slash!

"Phew, well done."

Eugene's lips curled up; the heretics he had worked with for years were no strangers to combat.

Now, with the addition of equipment and magic, their combat power has been further strengthened and consolidated.

Dealing with a few man-eating plants is a piece of cake.

But then again.

If they can't even kill these few in an instant, then the challenges they will face once they venture deeper into the cave will be immense!

"Alright, for a small test, it's acceptable."

Eugene recalled his subordinates.

He raised his voice, reiterating the main dangers to be encountered inside the cave—vast areas of carnivorous plants, fanatics carrying self-destructing firestones, and a white-haired man and a red-haired woman.

"..." To deal with the man-eating flowers, once support is lost, use the magic sword to dispel them.

"As for fanatics, you should keep your distance from them, and it's best to let them kill each other."

"As for the white-haired man, deal with him if you can, and retreat if you can't defeat him."

"If you encounter that last red-haired woman, don't hesitate, run!"

"Leave her to me!"

After making the arrangements, Eugene distributed the magic sword and the Flying Thunder God talisman.

His thorough consideration moved the few simpletons to tears.

The one with the strongest reaction was, of course, Guros. Even an old dragon like him could get so excited that he wiped away tears. Eugene was speechless.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense!"

Eugene finished making the arrangements and straightened his back again.

At his signal, the monsters tensed up and became serious.

Their eyes were focused as they stood in rows around Eugene, as if they were undergoing some kind of spiritual baptism.

The sudden shift to a sacred aura puzzled Fels.

Is this a pre-battle prayer? A morale mobilization?

Just when the great sage was completely baffled.

Her thoughts were interrupted by a soft, devout chant.

That was the "Ninefold" incantation, a sacred power with a completely new appearance, unlike the girlish longing that Chun Ji possessed!

[The fire of tyranny, the thunder of kingship, the breath of divinity]

(Love's Snow. Love's Crimson. Love's White Light)

[I grant you permission to stay by my side, so that I may seek the light that has not been seen for a thousand years.]

(May you always be by my side, the love I found at the end of two thousand nights)

【My name is Demon King, the destruction of the past; my name is Holy Lord, the swan song of the future.】

(My name is Fox Demon, the destruction of the past. My name is Ancient Ballad, the longing of the past.)

[For you, stubborn fool like a moth drawn to a flame, may nine demons dwell within you.]

(Only for a noble person who is like a bird spreading its wings, so that the nine demons may dwell on him)

[May the radiance flow, the blessings of the White Bull]

(Let the golden song flow, the poem of Tamamo's summons)

[White-faced, golden-haired, king of demons, devouring everything, achieving everything, the tail of an auspicious beast—]

(White-faced, golden-haired, the king of nine tails. Devouring everything, achieving everything, the tail of an auspicious beast—)

The dazzling golden light transformed into a halo that enveloped the six believers who were waiting for a miracle.

As Fels stared in utter astonishment, the golden hammer formed from holy light above Eugene's head crashed down heavily downwards!

clang! !

It is both a declaration and a blessing.

These six warriors are now completely different from what they used to be; their boundless potential is burning brightly within them!
