076 "Udaios"

The 18th floor of the dungeon is a special place.

Like the 50th floor, it is a safe floor where monsters will not spawn, and it is also the first safe floor in the dungeon.

However, unlike the 50th floor, which is like a gray wilderness, the 18th floor is a place called "Maze Paradise". Like the "Big Tree Maze" and "Water Maze", it is a rare place in the underground city. of wonders.

There are endless grasslands here, just like nature.

There are wide lakes and forests surrounding them.

There is also a small island located in the center of the big lake. In the middle of the prairie in the distance is a huge tree. The tree hole in the tree is the entrance to the "Big Tree Maze" on the 19th floor. All of this Everything is a wonder that can only be seen in this paradise.

Of course, the most talked-about thing here is the blue crystal that can be seen everywhere.

On the 18th floor, there are blue crystals growing everywhere, some big, some small, some standing like pillars, some spreading like grass beside the road, and even the ceiling of the entire floor is covered with them. Jagged crystals.

These crystals can emit light, and the amount of light changes with time, causing the 18th floor to be sometimes as bright as day and sometimes as dark as night. Just like on the ground, there is day and night.

It is said that there is a simple town on the island in the center of the lake. That town was established by adventurers as a transit stop and resting place during their adventures.

Therefore, there are people living on the 18th floor, as well as hotels, shops and other places, but the fees are extremely high. If someone wants to take the loot filled in the backpack and sell it there during the exploration, they will also be subjected to extreme treatment. The price was lowered, which ultimately resulted in not being able to sell for much money.

Thanks to this, the town on the 18th floor is considered a very famous black market in the industry. Almost all the people doing business there are rough and impolite villains. If you are not careful, you may be severely tricked. This last stroke made many adventurers itch with hatred.

It was not that Li Ge was not interested in that town, but at this moment, the town did not exist in his mind at all, and he had no intention of going there to do anything.

"Ais must be going down."

With the girl's current mood, it would be impossible for her to stay in the town.

Therefore, Li Ge had no intention of staying there. He went directly to the big tree in the center of the prairie and entered the 19th floor through the tree hole there.

Starting from this level, monsters are no longer killed indiscriminately.

The terrain of the dungeon becomes wider as you go down the floor. The area of ​​each floor of the "Big Tree Maze" starting from the 19th floor is very large. There is not only one road that can reach the entrance of the 20th floor. It's not only difficult to kill all the monsters indiscriminately here, but it's also a waste of time.

Ais obviously understood this, and finally stopped massacring. The number of monsters starting from the 19th floor increased dramatically, which was able to bring some obstacles to Li Ge who was on his way.

In addition, the terrain has become larger and the area has become wider. It will undoubtedly be very difficult to find someone here.

It's possible that Aisi is staying in a corner of this floor, fighting monsters.

If Li Ge abandoned the search at this level and continued down, he would most likely miss Ais.

but--

"With her character, she must continue at this time."

No need to think too much, Li Ge was convinced of this.

He could probably guess what Ais planned to do during this trip.

The night before yesterday, after coming out of Loki's divine chamber, Ais, who was dissatisfied and dejected with her growth, had already revealed her goals for the next stage.

That's an upgrade.

Aisi is ready to move to the next stage.

This was her original plan, but she was hit in the sparring session with Li Ge, which made her plan advance.

In this way, Ais's destination will be much easier to guess.

"In order to achieve the great things required for upgrading, Ais will definitely need an opponent that is extremely difficult to defeat."

This opponent must be stronger than Ais at this stage.

Aisi's level is the highest level of 5, and there are only monsters with a classification level of 6 that are stronger than this.

Monsters of this level cannot be encountered even if they go deep into the 50th floor. Even on the 51st floor, there is only one powerful dragon.

But if you want to go to the 51st floor, it will take too long, at least five or six days.

This is the time spent on the expedition. If you go alone, you can only spend more time, not less.

Ais definitely couldn't wait that long.

In view of this, there are only two types of opponents that Aisi chooses.

Either they are enhanced species with much higher general abilities than the monsters on the same floor, or they are rare species.

Either -

"Floor Master!"

On the 27th floor, there is a floor master with a classification level of 5, Amphispina.

But that super large dragon monster has the same classification level as Ais. It may be a threat to the other 5, but for Ais who can use [Wind Spirit Rush] to cross-level challenges, it is just a more difficult opponent. .

That two-headed dragon couldn't meet Ais' conditions, and Ais would definitely not choose to challenge it as a way to accomplish her great deeds.

In this case, the opponent Ais chose was the floor master who was one level stronger than Anphis Bina.

"The floor master of the 37th floor, Udaios."

This floor master with a classification level of 6 is the powerful enemy that Ais longs for.

Therefore, Ais has only one destination.

"Level 37!"

When he thought of this, Li Ge was in trouble.

You know, his time in this world is running out.

On the day he returned from the expedition, Li Ge had already spent 97 days in this world, with only the last three days left to stay.

The next day, yesterday, Li Ge spent the whole day dealing with family affairs, and in the evening went to the hostess Feng Lao to hold a celebration banquet.

Then came today.

In other words, almost two days have passed since returning from the expedition.

After tomorrow, at this time the day after tomorrow, Li Ge will leave this world and return to the original world.

This is an irreversible process.

The time limit for dimensional travel is one day in the original world. This is clearly written in the regulations of the "Dimensional Rubik's Cube Instructions".

Once the time limit is up, Li Ge's consciousness that came into this world will disband on its own and be taken back to the original world by the Dimensional Rubik's Cube.

In other words, if Li Ge cannot find Aisi in another day or so, he may not even have a chance to say goodbye to everyone, and will directly return to the original world.

In Li Ge's mind, the face of the blond girl who lacked the ability to express emotions emerged.

"[Wake up (Tempest)]."

With a whisper, a storm rolled up on Li Ge's body.

Yes.

Li Ge, he can’t care too much anymore.

All he wanted now was to find Ais quickly to prevent anything from happening to the girl.

As for how much load the body can bear, it is no longer important to Li Ge.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Naturally, the nearby monsters would not notice the movement here, and began to roar and attack towards this side.

That monster, as strong and huge as a bear, is a large species that only appears from the 19th floor onwards - Berg Bear.

Its classification level is 2, and it is a rather troublesome monster for adventurers who are also level 2.

It's a pity that they have offended the wrong person.

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"

When the storm swept past, the Berg bears that rushed towards this direction seemed to be torn into pieces, and were cut into countless pieces of meat on the spot.

The pieces of flesh exploded into ashes, and only the magic stone fell to the ground.

Li Ge still ignored this and rushed towards the entrance to the 20th floor.

Underground city, level 37.

This is a floor called the "White Palace".

On this floor, all the walls are white, and the entire floor is like a castle, consisting of five-story ring-shaped walls. The stairs leading to the 38th floor are located in the center of the floor.

If you want to go to the 38th floor, you must go to the center of this floor.

If you want to get to the center of this floor, you have to go through the open passage between the large ring-shaped walls and climb up and down several uneven floors.

However, the scope of this floor is extremely wide, almost comparable to that of a city, and the terrain is also a huge maze structure. If you wander around in a place like this, it will be very easy to get lost, and you may even be trapped. Here, you can never get out.

Generally speaking, it should take about two to three days to reach this floor.

However, with the speed boost of [Wind Spirit Speedy] and [Lamoureux], Li Ge finally spent about a day and successfully reached this floor.

"Well"

There was a feeling of soreness in every part of his body, and Li Ge almost stumbled and fell to the ground.

Li Ge deliberately ignored the pain in his body, gritted his teeth, and continued to run forward.

The ceiling above your head is so high that you can't even see it, giving it an endless feeling.

The space was filled with dim darkness, and only the phosphorescence that lit up at regular intervals on the white walls barely illuminated the road, allowing people to move forward.

Li Ge took advantage of his extremely sore body and rushed towards the huge cave in his memory.

However, before Li Ge successfully arrived, he heard the sound first.

It was a ferocious roar that was enough to shake the entire floor, the floor and walls of the entire maze.

"————!?"

Li Ge's heart tightened, and he whipped his somewhat overstretched body to finish the last section of the journey and break into the huge cave room.

The next second, Li Ge finally saw it.

He saw the figure of a girl standing in the wind with her back to the entrance of the cave, her back to herself, her sword drawn.

"Ais!"

Li Ge spoke subconsciously.

This sound was covered up.

Was given an astonishingly huge roar.

"Hooohhhhhhhhh-!"

The roar of the huge monster echoed through the space.

In front of the girl, a monster gradually emerged from the ground and caught Li Ge's eyes.
