Players’ NPC daddy

Blaze stomped on the ground, braked suddenly, spun around, and punched the Blasphemy Giant just below the ribs. The fist instantly sank deep into the flesh, pouring in with ferocious force, shattering the liver.

As the immense force crushed the liver, the slightest impact became a sharp blade, leaving neat cuts on the internal organs. These cuts were like a spark thrown into gunpowder, instantly detonating and setting off a crimson frenzy.

[Leo Derivative: Visceral Critical Attack] x [Fatal Execution]

The body of the blasphemous giant instantly swelled up like a ball, and then exploded, with blood falling like raindrops.

"Huh..." Blaze let out a light breath, and pushed open the door of the tower in the rain of blood.

After meeting that woman, a certain violence had grown within him. He knew that forcibly suppressing and forgetting it would only allow it to accumulate, and he would unleash it on innocent people in his daily life.

So he simply unleashed all of this brutality on his skill combination, using the additional slashing ability of [Eighty-Eight Stars in the Sky·Leo Derivative] and combining it with [Visceral Critical Hit] to create a combination of melee fists triggering [Fatal Execution].

This combo is incredibly difficult, like using a knife to split the wooden board beneath the tofu in half. Fortunately, [Fatal Execution] is quite versatile, so even if a punch shatters the internal organs, it only needs one cut to trigger it.

But Blazer is not going to be satisfied with this, he will do more practice on this subject.

After pushing open the tower's door, a bottomless spiral staircase came into view. Blaze took out his Mistydin and fired a shot into the depths of the spiral staircase. The silvery-white light gradually faded in the depths, and finally disappeared completely.

This tower is bottomless.

"It's so dangerous! Who is it? Who attacked me?"

A scream came from the depths of the spiral staircase. It was Greenland's voice, full of frustration.

Blaze shrank his neck, looked around guiltily, coughed twice, and then roared: "Damn blasphemous giant, you actually learned my tricks!"

"Blaze?!"

Greenland ran out of the deep spiral staircase with the sound of running. Fortunately, the blood on Blaze's body was not clean, so there was no need to pretend that he had experienced a fierce battle.

As soon as they met, Blaze was stunned.

"How come you're only at level 2? You've lost all your Silver Blood!?"

"...This is a sad story." Although Greenland was smiling, there was only endless emptiness in his eyes. "Not only are my levels gone, but everything in my warehouse is gone too."

The little angel had tactfully suggested sending Greenland to a safe place, since Greenland was only level 2. Saying her defense was like a napkin was an insult to the quality of napkins today.

But Greenland directly said that no matter her level, she could fight her way out of this place even if she only had a drop of blood. Besides, she still had props in her warehouse, so she could go back in no time.

Then the little angel told her before leaving that when she transformed into a red dragon handsomely, a bunch of strange and bizarre props burst out from behind her butt, sparkling.

It turns out that the inability to use the warehouse means that everything in the warehouse has fallen out.

The good news was that she had filled her warehouse with combat items for the battle against Typhon, and everything else was stored in the guild warehouse. The bad news was that many of the dropped combat items were items she hadn't used normally, so she was saving them for important occasions.

What's worse is that not long after the little angel left, Gaia's pelvis changed and became a place where monsters would spawn, and Greenland could only squat in the tower.

I dare not go out, and I dare not go down.

There was only Gaia in her warehouse, and if she died, Gaia would fall out. So Greenland had been hiding in the spiral staircase of the tower, hugging his knees and waiting for help.

Even so, he was almost shot to death, fortunately Blaze was the god of soldiers.

"Anyway, just take these first." Blaze quickly took out the passively activated item [Emergency Escape Device] to ensure that Greenland would not be killed.

Chapter 466: Rice Bug Upgrade

Blaze had originally intended to enter the underworld through the Etna Tower to confirm the situation, but Greenland was in a dangerous situation and its level had been completely reset to zero.

It would have been fine if Greenland had just obediently returned to a safe place, but instead, Greenland stared at Blaze with his eyes gleaming, his index fingers pointing out the door. Although Greenland said nothing, his meaning was self-evident.

Help her level up.

Greenland must go to the underworld, but going there at LV2 is definitely tantamount to committing suicide, and there is also the extremely important Gaia in the warehouse.

Blaze didn't mind teaming up with Greenland and helping to level up, not to mention that he almost defeated Greenland just now.

Blaze, who had just entered the Etna Tower, turned around and walked out. Amid Greenland's cheers, he pounced on the monsters wandering around the Etna Tower.

Greenland sat cross-legged at the entrance of the Etna Tower, which was right at the edge of the safe zone. There was a very strict rule in the team formation of "Godlock": if the team members were in the safe zone, they could not share experience and drops.

This is to prevent some people from upgrading and obtaining items by sleeping in the hotel.

Blaze has strong combat power. On the premise of gaining experience points, Blaze will not get too entangled with the enemy. He can kill the opponent instantly by using [Fatal Execution].

Greenland had time to reflect on her current state. Losing [Silver Blood] was a devastating loss, enough to keep her awake. This was the first method in the game to break the level cap. But dwelling on the loss was pointless; she still had a bigger loss to lose.

That was the bound item, the [Forgotten Eden Fruit Branch], which had been damaged and transformed into an ordinary branch. All the mystery and power contained within it seemed to have been drained away the moment the forbidden fruit was plucked.

If you must say, the branch gained its power because it was bearing the forbidden fruit.

Greenland recalled the scene when he obtained the branch wand, defeated the snake and the Seraph, and then stepped on the Seraph's head and laughed like a psycho.

It's not her fault. After all, her body in real life is already exposed, so it's normal for shame and other emotions to drive her crazy.

But when she searched for the spoils, she ran into trouble. She couldn't take off Seraphim's clothes. Although she tried hard to take them off, she couldn't take off Seraphim's tulle skirt.

The snake did drop some materials, but they were of little use to a wicked stranger who couldn't even enter the city gate. So she set her sights on the only thing in the desolate dungeon of [Eden Orchard] that looked like it had some life - a withered tree.

The tree was the only one in the orchard, and the snake emerged from its shadow, and the Seraph sat on its branch. This tree must be extremely important, and the single branch with a dried fruit on it must be her reward.

She tried many ways to break off the branch, and finally grabbed the hand of a seraph and asked the seraph to break the branch off. Once it was broken, the branch turned into equipment, and she felt very clever at the time.

Now it seems that she is indeed extremely smart. She was able to find the seventh item even though all the Eden series weapons were taken away.

I have to say, this design is quite clever. [6] is the number of the devil, but it is the six Eden series swords that protect the world. And [7] is the number of God, but it can transform the user into Satan, the incarnation of the devil, and the prop of the great red dragon.

"It's just the opposite. I don't know if this is hinting at something."

Greenland didn't know what this meant for a moment. Before she could figure out the problem, her level kept rising. Soon, [Cat Beastman] reached level 15, the maximum level. However, since experience points could be stored and accumulated, Greenland didn't stop.

Her attention was on a profession that remained motionless.

[Abaddon Yama Demon LV1]

【Big Red Dragon Transformation F (Learnable)】

[You are cursed! Angelic enemies will be extremely hostile to you. Holy attributes will deal maximum damage, Fire attributes will be ineffective, and you can absorb the bones of original sin.]

After talking a lot, the conclusion is that this career has a promising future, but it is of no use now.

Greenland has learned [Great Red Dragon Transformation], but hasn't met the requirements to use it. She needs to gather the remains of the Original Sin to assemble the Great Red Dragon form. Transformed Red Dragons only lose access to their warehouses and their class during the transformation. This will return to normal after re-leveling.

"Forget it. It just so happens that I also want to change to a [Gunner] to play with, and enjoy the life of a parasite at the same time." Greenland shrugged, exhaled forcefully, then stood up and waved to Blazer.

"That's enough, Blaze, you can stop now! (Experience points) are overflowing!"

"Don't you really need to drink more? It feels so good to rush up (level) in one go!"

"No, it's already good enough!"

Greenland had said enough, and Blaze stopped, immediately withdrawing and retreating to the Tower of Etna. This tower was the gateway to the underworld, so monsters who wanted to become the original gods and gain immortality did not dare to approach.

Next, we entered the depths of the Etna Tower. The dark environment amplified the sound of stepping on the spiral staircase, making the footsteps echo in the tower, as if countless people were walking through it.

"It's like the dead are walking down with us."

Greenland couldn't help but whisper in Blaze's ear with a cold voice. This was her evil taste, but Blaze raised his fist in a very serious manner.

"Don't worry, if those undead have any regrets, I will definitely take care of them with my fists!"

"... Generally speaking, shouldn't it be about fulfilling their regrets?"

"If they really had any regrets, they wouldn't be here."

Greenland recalled it carefully and found that it was true.

This is a magical world where the dead will instantly become undead if they have any regrets. They will either transform into monsters and attack everywhere, or wait for their destined person to appear at a key location. It is impossible for regrets to suddenly appear midway.

As they climbed deeper into the spiral staircase, the light overhead gradually faded. Blaze had night vision, but Greenland didn't. Although Greenland was a cat orc, the darkness beneath the Etna Tower was the darkness of death, beyond the realm of living things.

However, it can still be illuminated by ordinary light sources.

To prevent Greenland from falling accidentally, Blaze lit a torch.

When they arrived at the base of the Tower of Etna, they saw a deep space with rocks randomly overlapping, and an old man was inside.

The ferryman seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

Chapter 467 As compensation, this light bulb is for you

"Where are the other strangers?"

"I sent them away." The ferryman waved to Blaze and Greenland, signaling them to follow.

"This place is extremely unstable and can't withstand their tossing and turning."

Blaze surveyed his surroundings. It was the space they had left, but with a massive, incomparably conspicuous crack in the ground. Closing his eyes and using his [Blindness] vision, he could sense the interweaving lightning rays deep within the crack.

These rays were like the stitches that sewed the wounds of the earth together. The wounds were trying to tear open, and the stitches were tightened. Typhon did not completely solve the problem of the earth's upheaval, but only temporarily forced it to stop.

"Upheaval is the fundamental law of this world: separation, reorganization, repeated destruction, and then rebirth." The ferryman, in his aged voice, recounted the world's oldest story. "Those born into this world, brought into existence by upheaval, cannot change the rules of this world."

"Even the great gods could not prevent the upheaval of the world, but they could prevent the disasters it caused. However, driven by human nature, they arrogantly left their names on the earth. As a result..."

The ferryman sneered silently.

Blaze understood the Ferryman's meaning. He had seen the Ferryman lose his power after the Styx was split. It was like the World Tree, which once had its power because of its shape and name on the earth, but when the world turned upside down and cut them, they lost their shape and name, and their power disappeared.

This power was not taken away, but simply ceased to exist, and the causal relationship was severed.

In the past, the great gods had the ability to save many lives from the upheaval, but at the moment the upheaval occurred, the gods lost most of their power, and only had the power to escape or watch.

"So what's the solution? Search for the Underworld?"

"The underground world is nothing more than a refuge. What you need to do is turn [the world upside down] into a spectacle, a puzzle, not a disaster."

The ferryman stopped at the edge of the River Styx. The ferryboat had been destroyed in the signs of a world-shaking upheaval, but he just poked the ground hard with the oar in his hand, and ripples appeared in the River Styx, and the river slowly parted.

"One of the little tricks I got after everything turned upside down."

The ferryman led Blaze and Greenland into the passage in the middle of the Styx. In the slowly fluctuating cross-section of the Styx, countless ghosts of the dead were struggling, slapping the river surface and trying to break through the wall.

After crossing the River Styx and reaching the other side, the vibration became more and more obvious, and the entire vision seemed to be shaking.

Blaze could feel the El Dorado calling him from deep within, but he couldn't go there yet.

"What do you want to tell us?" Blaze pulled his gaze back with difficulty and looked at the ferryman. "Please tell us in simple terms if possible. Don't deliberately use riddles to enhance your mystery."

"...Actually, I shouldn't tell you this so bluntly, but the situation seems really urgent. If we don't quickly resolve this devastating problem, that guy will continue to suffer in the depths. I've watched him for tens of thousands of years, and now he has a mother like Gaia who's not very smart..."

The ferryman stopped telling riddles, but kept talking non-stop, faster than the stranger's artillery fire. The key point was that he didn't get to the point after talking for a long time.

Greenland was already rolling his eyes, his face a bit lost in thought. Blaze listened patiently to the ferryman's ramblings. The short version was that Typhon, like the treasure miners, wouldn't leave the depths of the earth until they were sure the upheaval wouldn't cause extinction.

"...While the underground world can only be used as a refuge, it hides a secret that can harmlessly turn the world upside down. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what this secret is. You know the reason."

The ferryman winked at Blaze, and Blaze immediately understood. Simply put, it was similar to the old lion's ambiguous help. Going to find a problem with an answer, did he really want an answer, or a problem?

"Then if I walk from here, can I reach the underground world?" Blaze couldn't help but point to the depths of the world of death. He was not in a hurry, but the Black Beast Knight was feeling impulsive.

The ferryman suddenly smiled strangely.

"Boy, why do you think this place is underground?"

Blaze was stunned. He subconsciously wanted to say that they had come up along the stairs. But thinking carefully, they didn't walk for a long time, but they came to an environment that seemed deep underground.

Those steps, that darkness seemed to be some kind of spatial distortion.

"The world of death, the nameless royal tomb... the inverted world at the bottom." Blaze patted his head. The elves once said that the Golden Kingdom fell deep into the earth, but is there any place deeper than the bottom of the entire world?

That's why we talk about these ancient races! When they reach the bottom of the world, that's the bottom. Why say they fell into the depths of the earth? It will cause ordinary people to misunderstand!

But in this case, he really can't go to the Golden Kingdom now, otherwise he will fall out like he did in the nameless royal tomb.

"Then I'll go in from that place, okay?" Blaze pointed to the exit.

"That place is the exit to the underworld, and the place it leads to is naturally where you came from."

Simply put, no.

All that was left for Blaze was to find a passage that led directly underground. And it couldn't be a passage like the Gate to the Underworld that went straight from the top to the bottom, it had to be a passage that went right to the underground world.

"Actually... the stranger had already found it, no, it should be said that he had found it by chance and coincidence, but he didn't know about it." The ferryman showed a well-honed and meaningful smile.

As Blaze waited for the ferryman's next words, the ferryman stretched out his hand toward him and rubbed his index finger and thumb together.

"This, does this mean you want me to pay?!"

"Of course. Do you know how many free river crossing membership cards I gave out today? I don't have any other way to make a living besides being an intelligence dealer. Even a god needs to make a living."

The ferryman said it as a matter of course. Blaze could only take out three copper coins with a twitch in his eyes, but the ferryman shook his head. It was not enough. Blaze looked at Greenland who was still rolling his eyes and knew that he could only carry the burden forward by himself.
