In Vanessa's heart, she silently cursed Leo a bit, but she didn't say anything more. However, just by looking at her, it's clear that she's not pleased.Alex leans on Lucifer, not in the mood to care about them. He hasn't been exposed; that's the greatest stroke of luck.Moreover, in his mind, he is still contemplating the apocalyptic event that Henry mentioned. Each of them has a different mood.But finally, the time in the waiting room has come to an end, and the people are quickly teleported back to their respective positions. The dungeon is surrounded by protection, but there are still many reporters and onlookers waiting, eager to witness the heroes of the continent.It can be said that they are quite lucky that all four of them who entered the dungeon can come out.It seems that the quantity is not necessarily more important than the quality in dungeons like this.Of course, Alex is only thinking this way; after all, having one more person means having more strength. Only a
Until the end, Lucifer cannot definitively save the world because after discovering the true nature of everything, he realizes that he alone cannot help a world destined for destruction.He clears all dungeons, uncovering the essence of the world. These worlds are merely a series of games played by the higher-ups. They were supposed to be completely taken over from the beginning, but some benevolent higher-ups created dungeons where monsters could be temporarily confined.However, as time goes on, the tasks within the dungeons become more challenging, testing the limits of the supernatural entities' abilities. Hence, many dungeons become impossible to complete, marking the beginning of the apocalypse. Perhaps this is the great apocalypse that Henry spoke of."The explosion of a series of high-level dungeons?" Alex mutters, then can't help but ask, "So, who are you exactly? Why do you know all this? Are you one of the benevolent higher-ups?"Black shakes his head. "I said I would
Alex was shocked by the sudden appearance of the pit, almost letting out a scream. However, he managed to restrain himself, and his probing eyes looked downward.In the dark expanse, as he fell freely, not knowing what was below and when he would touch the ground, Alex quickly adjusted his posture. At the same time, he conjured a flashlight to illuminate the space below.Despite the flashlight's light, the darkness below remained impenetrable. Alex couldn't help but furrow his brows, feeling wary.He glanced at the book, which was blinking beside him. It was a rare sight to see the book flickering like this as if it were more anxious than he was. However, Alex refrained from teasing Black at this moment.He didn't know how long he had been free-falling, but there was still no contact with the ground, and the flashlight couldn't reveal anything.Just as Alex wondered if he had fallen into a bottomless pit, his flashlight abruptly went out, and then a faint light appeared below.In
Alex looked up at the distant mountain peak, suppressing the pain and letting out a small laugh. After running for over three hours, he had to face numerous ferocious giant creatures. Despite Alex's enhanced body, it was still challenging.He sat down, stabilizing his shaky legs for about thirty minutes before starting to ascend the mountain. During this time, Alex couldn't help but glance at Black and exclaimed, "I wish I could fly like you."Black, indifferent, replied, "Wait until you die, then you'll know." Alex raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised, and said, "So, you were once a human before, and you turned into a book after death? I always thought you were just a book."Black remained silent, caught off guard by the unexpected question. However, he didn't pay much attention to it as the matter wasn't significant. He glanced at Alex and then looked ahead, ignoring him.Alex chuckled and didn't say anything more. He quickly ascended the mountain, which surprisingly had no
Two guarding tigers have become gigantic, Alex quickly turned his head to look, and his eyes widened.The trees behind him fell continuously, and the dust rose in a haze. The two tigers grew even taller, reaching the height of the trees in this forest, explaining how they could easily push down those trees.Alex was truly at a loss; he could only increase his speed, running like a missile toward his starting point. Fortunately, the gigantic bodies seemed to limit the speed of the two tigers, as they maintained a constant distance from Alex, with signs that he might be pulling away.Alex felt silently lucky. He ran faster and faster, seemingly tireless, finally returning to his starting point. He looked at Black and quickly asked, "Where is the way out?"Black replied, "You have to absorb the energy from the energy core to create an exit."Alex frowned, "Why didn't you say this earlier?"Black solemnly said, "Absorbing energy requires intense concentration; you cannot do that while
Alex is in so much pain that he can't even groan. He can only slump down, his body contorted. Sweat soaks through his entire body, making him look as if he has just been pulled out of the water. This lasts for more than ten minutes before finally easing a bit. Alex drags his exhausted body to the water's edge within the space, then collapses with a thud.The water's surface bubbles, splashing everywhere. Since everything in Alex's body has been filtered, the water's touch is not just painful; it also helps him relax. Alex lies in the water, trying not to exhale. In that moment, he even wishes he could lie there forever. But, of course, that won't happen. Just as Alex has barely lain down, the space shakes heavily, and he is thrown outside.Outside, the battle is fierce, and the man in the black cloak has started to become translucent, indicating that he doesn't have much time left to fight. The two guarding tigers are in a condition similar to the man in the black cloak. Ho
Because of moving with the wind, this time, Alex doesn't encounter any monsters blocking his path. Moreover, it seems that these monsters are still frightened due to the recent fierce battle, hesitating to stick their heads out.Alex's path is extremely smooth, with nothing suddenly jumping out to hinder him. In no time, he reaches the mountain peak and enters the cave. Inside the cave, things haven't changed much, but it's evident that the three tigers seem to have lost a lot of vitality. They no longer exude the terrifying aura they had before.Alex quickly approaches the statue of the man and says, "Hello, would you like to leave with me?"On the way here, Black informed Alex about the method to take this man outside with him. A gust of wind blows through the cave as if responding to Alex.After a while, the man appears, countless points of light converging and forming the shape of a man.He looks at Alex and speaks in a deep voice, "Doing so won't benefit your future path. I
Alex looked at Lucifer, smiling outwardly while internally desperately searching for the next words. He certainly couldn't directly acknowledge everything; at least, he wasn't ready to say anything to Lucifer at the moment.He nodded and said, "Indeed, I need to find something not present in the Mystica realm. I feel like I can pull it from space, so it's not a big issue."Lucifer, however, seemed skeptical of Alex's words. If that object could keep Alex inside the Mystica realm for three hours searching, it surely wasn't something ordinary. The situation wouldn't be resolved easily—either the object Alex referred to didn't exist, or he was lying.Facing Lucifer's emotionless, seemingly bottomless eyes, Alex felt a stifling reluctance to speak. It was as if Lucifer could see through everything. Nevertheless, if Alex didn't admit, Lucifer couldn't do anything.After a while, Lucifer remained silent and just walked away. Before leaving, Alex couldn't help but think that Lucifer mi
