Hero of Darkness Chapter 757 Temporary Relief

757 Temporary Relief

On floor 51 of the Immortal Dungeon, a battle between the Floor Boss and a Trident warrior ensued that destroyed the terrain of this floor covered under the chaotic purple-colored sky and dark clouds.

This dungeon floor didn't have land or water. Only hundreds of ma.s.sive meteorites floating in the sky slowly as if they were surrounding a planet.

Yet, each of these meteors was few hundred meters in total perimeter while the entire floor seemed to be 60 kilometers in perimeter.

In the sky was a 100 meter tall being with a ma.s.sive exoskeleton body with hundreds of blue straps over its boney hands while a large white cloak around it. This creature didn't have a lower body or legs either.

The skull-like head with blue fire running through its eyes and multiple horns over its head exuded an aura of death. Meanwhile, the ma.s.sive boney chest that glowed brightly launched beams of condensed light elemental attacks at the opponent.

One would think that this was a battle between equals. But the truth was far from expectations.

BOOM!!

The nearby 2 kilometers of place was pulverized when the attack landed on the enemy… but soon, the attacker fled in the opposite direction because the target had blocked this attack with his bare hands.

Sizzle!

Sizzle!

"Eh? It gave me a first-degree burn? I guess the light element is indeed noteworthy." spoke Rudra as he looked at his bare palm.

But the very next moment, his regeneration ability healed completely.

"Why are you running?! Come here! I have yet to test a few more things!" he shouted and flew after the legendary rank floor boss that was suddenly fleeing.

Normally, a legendary rank monster or a floor boss was a mighty being that could kill at least 200 thousand warriors on its own. But here… Its strongest attack that could pulverize 5 kilometers of region instantly had only grazed Rudra a little bit.

Rudra was simply using it to test some of his skills.

Legolas and Edmund who were inhabiting a stationary and flat meteor were eating food across a luxurious table while enjoying wine made from rare fruits found only in Zivot Empire.

The rest of his subordinates were spread across these meteors and were keeping a guard even though there was no need.

Even Edmund was terrified after looking at this sight.

It wasn't their first time seeing a legendary rank floor boss. But till now, everyone including the 5th stage saints from the alliance treated them with caution.

However, the scenario was completely different when the Misthios guild was fighting them on their own for the first time.

"How can this be so easy? Although it's only a beginner legendary rank monster, it should still be able to fight back a little.

But instead of fighting, it's running away from commander Rudra." he said while sipping the wine as he partially lifted his mask.

"It's nothing special. You haven't fought on the field so you wouldn't know.

The higher ranked a monster or a floor boss is, the more alert their survival instincts are.

It knows that Rudra is stronger so it's not engaging in a fight and running for its life." he said.

"I see. But shouldn't we leave quickly? Others might manage to come to this floor tomorrow." said the Alchemist.

"Maybe they will. But even so, they won't dare to fight us." replied Legolas.

"Why?"

"Because once they are done fighting the monster army… they will fight each other first.

Most of them won't make it even if they're saints." he iterated in a carefree tone.

"How? Everything was going smoothly till now." queried the alchemist with eyes full of doubt.

"It's just part of nature for sentient beings.

Greed and desperation makes you lose rationality.

Now, they will see everyone else as their enemies after the incident. The alliance is as good as gone.

This is why I chose to ditch them behind so we won't get dragged into the mud." responded the ironborn elf.

"I see. We have avoided unnecessary bloodshed.

So what's our next move?" asked the human saint.

"Even without a floor boss, traversing the floors would be trouble even for us saints from now.

Some floors won't even allow us to fly so we will have to travel on foot.

There are few floors which need us to avoid detection by monsters and quietly find the exit door without engaging in contact." he iterated.

Just then, another voice resounded.

"Some floors have mechanisms to cut our connections to world energy as well. While some will limit our senses to the point we can't even feel the presence of monsters standing 10 meters away.

So soon, other than our physical strength and fighting skills… we will be no different than normal people." spoke Scorpion aka Ronin who appeared out of thin air.

"It will be less about hunting and more about survival from this point." explained Legolas in a somber voice.

This made the human alchemist feel a lot of mental pressure. Only he was without any fighting capabilities even though he was a saint.

So he was heavily dependent on the Misthios guild for his safety.

At this moment, he felt lucky that they were his business partners and not just temporary allies so would ditch him behind to save their lives in times of peril.

What Edmund didn't know was that although they'd be no different than powerless people soon…

Kahn, Ronin, Blackwall and Oliver had a plethora of pa.s.sive skills that could be used to detect danger from 10 to 30 kilometers easily.

And even if they didn't work for some reason, Kahn had the Survival Instinct blessing given by the War Deity.

The other saints may face trouble because of the changes in laws of reality on each floor, but their group had the skills and abilities to smoothly get around without inviting trouble.

Little did Kahn know that this advantage of theirs was soon going to become useless in the upcoming days after they reached a particular floor.

Because the Boss of that floor…

Had just killed the Hero of Life.
