Chapter 2840: First Floor

~7 min read 1,362 words

Morey's mentality collapsed. Her thought now was that she was just a Battle Angel, why did she have to come and fight wits and courage with these lunatics? She really wanted to shout: "To hell with the Battle Angel, this old lady is quitting!"

A group of enemy contractors who hadn't entered the door stood outside the temple, staring at each other. No one dared to easily step into the first floor of the temple. If there were a hundred Samsara Paradise contractors guarding here, they would all rush in and fight the enemy to the death.

One minute passed, five minutes passed, ten minutes passed. Finally, a tank-type contractor from the Death Paradise side couldn't bear it anymore. He held his heavy shield and walked into the first floor of the temple with big strides.

Until this tank-type contractor arrived in front of Revenge Baron's corpse, there was no change. He slowly retreated. After exiting the temple, he spat a mouthful of phlegm.

"Playing ghosts, I'm perfectly fine."

"..."

Morey covered her forehead with one hand. For some reason, when she heard the tank-type say this, she had a feeling that the other party was definitely going to die.

"Rabbit Candy, keep an eye on my vital signs at all times."

Morey pulled a very soft and cute little nurse to her side. This was her temporary teammate, Rabbit Candy.

"Don't worry, Morey-dazhen."

"Dazhen or whatever, hahaha."

While Morey spoke, she was keeping an eye on that tank-type contractor. A full half-hour passed, and the other party had no changes, even mocking everyone's cowardice.

Angry Dog's old face felt somewhat hot. As one of the top ten in Tier 7, the Death Ranger responsible for cleaning up violators in the Death Paradise, he was actually scared by an ordinary contractor from the Samsara Paradise?

"Smash his corpse."

Just as Angry Dog's words fell, Revenge Baron, located on the first floor of the temple, floated up, as if being pinched by a giant hand. Fresh blood and minced meat exploded.

*Whoosh! * A flame attacked. After the flame formed a beast head, it sprayed flames at the fresh blood and minced meat on the ground, burning it into ashes.

Looking at the flying ashes, a group of contractors felt relieved. A dozen summons explored the way in front. After going up to the second floor, these summons disappeared, and the connection with their masters was cut off.

"This..."

Hai Zuo didn't know what to say anymore. They hadn't even seen the enemy, yet they were being played around.

"Don't be misled by the enemy."

Several contractors dressed the same walked through the first floor and walked toward the second floor. These eight people were a small group. They had a team skill called "Soul Resonance," which could exempt most illusions.

A dozen seconds later, a contractor rushed down from the stairs.

"They all disappeared, it's not an illusion! Not a mental-type ability!"

This contractor's expression was extremely ugly. The 8 of them were walking on the second floor just now, and 7 of them disappeared one after another.

"My teammates, 1 died, no, 2, no, 5 died! They... all died."

"What kind of ghostly place is this! I'm not fighting, this old man is going to mine."

"Calm down, the enemy's number is several times less than ours. Precisely because they are no match for us, they use tricks."

"Shut up, all of you."

Hai Zuo spoke coldly. He pointed at his brow with his finger.

"You just said, there are 50 doorless rooms on the second floor."

"Right."

That

"50 doorless rooms, Qiyuezhe suddenly disappearing. If I'm not mistaken, their order of death is not determined by strength or time of disappearance, but is random?"

"Y-yes, that's right."

"So that's how it is."

Hai Yizuo figured something out, and he smiled at the crowd.

"The Sun Temple was a place used by the Ganglu Dynasty to train Sun Warriors. This is recorded in the confidential files of the Healing Church.

Based on this intelligence, the 50 doorless rooms on the second floor represent 50 trials. The Ganglu Dynasty has long since perished, but the mechanisms they left behind are still there, and it is the Qiyuezhe from the Reincarnation Paradise who are responsible for making these mechanisms run."

Hearing these words from Hai Yizuo, Morei also understood. She said:

"The 50 rooms on the second floor represent 50 separate spaces. There are 50 Reincarnation Paradise Qiyuezhe inside. Anyone who enters the second floor will be forcibly pulled in to duel with them. Because the strength of the enemy Qiyuezhe is different, the death time of our 7 people wasn't fixed. You, the one who was scared silly, you were walking at the back, right?"

Morei looked at the surviving Qiyuezhe, and the other party nodded repeatedly.

"This is easy to solve. We will select our 50 strongest people to walk at the very front. As long as we successfully see through this kind of enemy mechanism, it will be a graveyard for the 50 enemy Qiyuezhe."

Morei's words were recognized by Hai Yizuo. In the end, everyone decided to have Nüquan lead, with the other 49 people following behind, plus 100 friendly Qiyuezhe following further behind, thereby successfully rushing into the third floor.

Before long, everyone selected the 50 strongest people. These 50 people walked into the first floor. After confirming the problem, the remaining nearly one hundred Qiyuezhe entered the first floor one after another. The first floor had to be occupied; if the enemy cut off the retreat, it would be a disaster.

Nüquan, who was at the front, had just stepped onto the stairs leading to the second floor when he heard the sound of dripping water.

Drip, drip.

Inside the first floor, turbid liquid condensed in mid-air and dripped down. A figure wrapped entirely in bandages drilled out of thin air. He lifted his upper body, his entire torso almost folded backward, and a crazed smile was on his face.

In the hands of this mummy-like man was a metal tube wrapped in wires, with the solution inside churning.

'Oh no.'

Just as Nüquan prepared to rush up the stairs, a pushing force came from behind him.

Thud!

The entire Sun Temple shook, and in the liquid flames, one enemy Qiyuezhe after another fell down wailing.

'Symbiotic Wish: Reversal.'

Tu Tang from the Apocalypse Paradise stood outside the main entrance. Ignoring the surging liquid flames, a large bubble appeared between her hands, wrapping the hundred-plus people on the first floor inside and pulling them outside.

Over a hundred Qiyuezhe were pulled out as if they had been packed into a bag; some were near death, others were severely injured.

150 Qiyuezhe went in, 126 came out alive, and the rest were all burned to death by the liquid flames.

The large metal door that had just been kicked to pieces by Nüquan gradually returned to its original state. The dents on it closed up, and the two giant metal doors returned to the door frame, closing with a bang.

Nüquan, covered in slight burns, pushed open the metal door. A man in formal attire stood on the first floor of the temple.

"Welcome everyone to the Sun Temple. I am the guide for you distinguished guests, Baron Revenge."

Baron Revenge bowed slightly. Seeing him, who had originally died, Morei and the others felt a chill rise from the bottom of their hearts. For some reason, Morei felt that this was no longer a war movie, but a horror movie.

Did Baron Revenge die? Of course not. His ability was actually very simple: regeneration. As long as more than 8% of his body remained, he could regenerate. To achieve this, he had stored parts of his organs somewhere on the second floor.

Just now, an enemy Qiyuezhe received a prompt that Baron Revenge had been killed. This was the mummy's ability. He couldn't make all enemies hallucinate, but he could make one Qiyuezhe hallucinate, letting the other party mistakenly believe they had received a kill prompt.

Baron Revenge and the mummy were the two-man combination guarding the first floor.
