Lefiya also came to the top of the city. Without the monsters harassing her, she could finally chant with peace of mind.
"O proud warriors, O archer team of the Forest, with the pressing plunderers before you, take up your bows, answer the voices of your comrades, nock your arrows and light the flames, O lamp of the Forest, I command you to shoot, O fire arrows of the elves, fall like rain, burn the barbarians!"
In an instant, streaks of flame arrows shot into the monster group, killing all the frozen goat-headed monsters.
Lin Che also sighed when he saw this: "As expected of the 'Magic Idiot', she has Lv5 level firepower at Level 3!"
However, at this moment, the Underground City refreshed even more monsters.
Lin Che frowned slightly, it's endless!
Since you want to play, then let's play something big!
He said to Artoria beside him: "Use your Noble Phantasm directly!"
Artoria was taken aback and asked in confusion: "The Noble Phantasm is too powerful, what if it destroys the floor?"
Lin Che said: "It doesn't matter, at most it will refresh a Zagnate. With the strength of the four of us, plus the powerhouses of the Loki Familia, Zagnate will definitely die even if it refreshes! As long as the Underground City floor is severely damaged, she won't be able to refresh monsters and will have to use all her energy to repair the damage!"
Artoria understood Lin Che's meaning and without any hesitation, dispelled the Wind Barrier!
The true form of the Sword of Promised Victory was revealed. The sword body shimmering with golden Light stunned everyone.
"That is... an artifact!" Finn exclaimed.
This was no longer a weapon that humans could Forge, only Gods could Forge it.
"Gods cannot use Godly Power when they descend to the lower world, why can they create such a weapon?" Rivilia frowned tightly, feeling that Lin Che and the others who suddenly appeared had great secrets on them.
Artoria raised the Holy Sword above her head, and fiercely slashed down at the monsters in the distance, while also releasing its true name.
"Sword of Promised Victory!"
A golden beam of Light soared into the sky, like a giant sword.
As this golden beam of Light slashed down, all the monsters were burned to ashes in the golden Light.
Not only that, but even the entire floor was split open by a crack, as if dividing the floor into two.
Through the crack, they could even see the situation on the next floor.
This terrifying destructive power stunned everyone in the Loki Familia.
Even a Level 7 adventurer might not be able to withstand this power, right?
"Is this a skill or magic?" Ais said blankly.
"Neither, it should be related to the sword in her hand!" Bert said with a look of dread.
"Is that a magic sword?" Tiona asked somewhat innocently.
"No, even the most powerful magic sword doesn't have this kind of power, that's a real artifact!" Finn bit his thumb and said with great certainty.
"Artifact!?"
For a moment, everyone showed shocked expressions again.
At the same time, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred in the Underground City.
All the floors were vibrating slightly, and a low sound rang out.
This sound spread throughout all the floors. Monsters heard it and were afraid, adventurers heard it and were chilled.
It was a sound that would make people feel despair when they heard it!
Lin Che's eyes revealed excitement, wondering how much Great Feat he could gain by slaying Zagnate!
In the original work, Bell cooperated with Ryu Lion to slay Zagnate, which was the key reason why Ryu Lion later leveled up by two levels.
Although Ryu Lion's accumulation over the years was also very important, Zagnate was her Great Feat for leveling up!
The first adventurer to 'Consecutively Ascend' in the Age of Gods!
What a great honor that was!
During this expedition, Lin Che killed his way from the first floor to the forty-eighth floor, not knowing how many monsters he had killed beyond his level.
This included two Floor Bosses, one Level 5 and one Level 6!
If he could slay Zagnate again, he should be able to level up when he returned this time!
Thinking of this, Lin Che became even more excited.
However, compared to his excitement, the Loki Familia, after hearing this despairing sound, all treated it as a formidable enemy.
As experienced adventurers, they were well aware of the Underground City's mechanisms. Such an anomaly appearing definitely meant something bad was about to happen.
After the despairing sound echoed for a while, a loud bang suddenly occurred at the top of the forty-eighth floor.
The rock ceiling was shattered, creating a large hole, from which black liquid flowed out, like the blood of the Underground City.
Immediately after, a monster covered in black emerged from it.
Disaster descends!
It was like a lizard without flesh and blood, with only its skeleton remaining.
But everyone who saw it knew that it wasn't bone, but magic stone.
With crimson eyes, three sharp claws on each limb, a tail like a steel chain, and a tail tip like a sharp blade.
Its whole body was a weapon for killing, this was a monster born for slaughter!
"What is this thing?" Lefiya saw the monster and was so scared she collapsed onto the ground.
"Damn it, I've never seen this kind of monster either!" Finn said with an extremely ugly expression.
"This monster actually gives me a sense of oppression!" Gareth was somewhat disbelieving. He was a Level 6 adventurer, and his abilities had already reached their peak, with the possibility of reaching Level 7 at any time!
"That means the minimum level of this monster is Level 6, it's a bit tricky!" Rivilia gripped her staff tightly.
"It's alright, let's just treat it as a special Floor Boss to be defeated!" Ais's eyes were firm, and she slowly walked towards Zagnate.
Seeing this, Finn did not stop her, but instead shouted to Lin Che in the distance: "Friend, do you know the origin of this monster?"
Lin Che used "Unlimited Blade Works" to project a spear and replied to Finn: "It's called Zagnate, an abnormal situation caused by strong artificial destruction of the labyrinth. Its strength varies depending on the floor it is born on, and it specializes in killing abilities. Even a 'Zagnate' born on the lower levels of the 27th floor has strength exceeding that of deep-floor monsters."
"Damn it, we were played!" Finn immediately realized after hearing Lin Che's words that this monster was deliberately created by Lin Che.
His purpose was to borrow the strength of their Loki Familia to conquer it together!
"This is bad, a Zagnate born on the lower levels has the strength of deep-floor monsters, what about a Zagnate born on the deep levels?" Rivilia's face changed drastically.
"It should have Level 7 strength, if it's higher, we're in danger!" Gareth showed an angry expression.
"Damn it, that bastard actually dared to plot against us!" Bert immediately showed an angry expression after hearing their words.
"Now is not the time for conflict, let's deal with the monster together first!" Finn sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
Then he asked Lin Che again: "Friend, since you know this monster, can you share any other information, such as the monster's abilities and weaknesses?"
Lin Che did not hide anything and said: "Zagnate's stamina is very low, but its attack power is very high. Its claws can easily destroy adventurers' equipment, and it has special armor that can reflect magic. Also, its mobility is extremely high, comparable to a first-class adventurer, and it has a 'perception network' that can easily sense the location of adventurers. To eliminate it, its entire body must be destroyed!"
After hearing Lin Che's words, Finn once again felt how troublesome Zagnate was!
Because of the magic-reflecting armor, Rivilia, a Level 6 mage, became useless.
In this case, they could only rely on close combat to shatter it!
Just as both sides were exchanging information, Zagnate had already unfolded its body and launched an attack towards Ais who was walking towards it.
"Ais, be careful, this monster's minimum strength is Level 7, and it might even be Level 8!" Finn shouted anxiously.
Ais showed a surprised expression after hearing this.
However, she reacted quickly and immediately used magic.
"Wind Spirit Speed!"
The next moment, a faint layer of wind pressure appeared all over her body. With the enhancement of the strong wind, her speed became incredibly fast, and she instantly dodged the attack!
Lin Che also joined the battle when he saw this, taking a step and shortening the distance.
He instantly arrived in front of Zagnate, and the spear in his hand pierced out like a swimming dragon.
Bang!!!
The spear tip poked the joint of Zagnate, but it didn't break it. Instead, the spear was shattered by the recoil force.
Lin Che didn't care either. With a flash of Light in his hand, another spear appeared and pierced towards Zagnate's eye again.
The angle was tricky and difficult to defend against.
Zagnate blocked in front with its claws. Ais on the side seized the opportunity, stepping on the strong wind, her footsteps like a butterfly flitting through flowers, and directly came to Zagnate's abdomen, then stabbed out the 'Sword of Despair' in her hand.
The Sword of Despair, with its indestructible attribute, was much sharper than the spear projected by Lin Che, and it directly pierced into Zagnate's abdomen.
Zagnate let out a scream, and its tail, like a steel chain, swept towards Lin Che and Ais.
At the critical moment, Morgan and Gareth blocked their path.
Gareth held a shield, and the staff in Morgan's hand also transformed into a large cross shield, the already distant Avalon!
The two large shields blocked Zagnate's tail whip, but the immense impact still sent Gareth and Morgan flying.
However, the opportunity created by the two was enough for Lin Che and Ais to jump out of the attack range.
The next moment, Artoria and Finn's attacks followed closely, giving Zagnate no chance to breathe.
The two slashed with a sword and thrust with a spear.
