He left behind what he considered a dashing figure, disappearing out the door.
...Terry began to act.
Eugene's gaze gradually turned cold; Gran's words made him almost certain that the other party was about to join the war.
One LV5, several LV3s, and this one who appears to be LV4.
Aside from these, it's uncertain whether the remaining henchmen will join the fight.
Combining them is quite troublesome.
However, this is a good opportunity to deal with some troubles in advance.
Eugene's mouth stretched wide, his smile resembling that of a ferocious monster.
"I'm incredibly lucky."
46 Fire-Breathing Bull (Available tomorrow, please support!)
(Gran and the Maze Key)
The other party will not appear in town alone.
Eugene would naturally think this way if the other party were not the Icarus Familia, but some other force.
Firstly, Gran's strength is enough to make him invincible in the upper and middle levels.
Secondly, the Icarus clan never followed the usual path.
Unlike other adventurers who need to descend layer by layer, this one is different.
The Icarus Familia possesses its own secret passages, unknown to others.
That is the "artificial labyrinth - Knossos", designed right next to the underground city!
Before the Age of Gods, monsters from dungeons could freely appear on the surface.
It wasn't until the great god Uranus descended to earth and suppressed the chaos with his divine power that the prosperous era we enjoy today came into being.
The only companion of that great god was Daedalus, the genius architect who personally built the Tower of Babel.
But what Daedalus was truly proud of was not the Tower of Babel.
Rather, it was the man-made labyrinth he was obsessed with—Knossos.
The saying goes, "Without madness, there is no life."
In order to fully explore the mysteries of the underground city, Daedalus painstakingly built a vast labyrinth underground. Even after his death, he used his bloodline to control his descendants, forcing them to continue the project.
This hidden history has continued for thousands of years.
Dix the Savage is a descendant of Daedalus.
They are also the kind of people who can manipulate man-made mazes.
But he deeply hated his ancestors, hated the bloodline that constantly controlled him and forced him to explore the labyrinth.
Therefore, Dix took advantage of the man-made maze to begin a vengeful hunt and smuggling of heretics.
Most of the officers in the Icarus Familia possess the keys to unlock the labyrinth.
Gran was one of them.
"very good."
After changing his appearance and following for a while, Eugene successfully confirmed that Gran had no companions.
This must be the effect of good fortune.
Fate always seemed to be working in Eugene's favor.
"That being said, we still need to prepare smoke grenades."
"If we can't win, we'll quickly change our appearance and make a run for it."
To date, the strongest opponent Eugene has ever faced is nothing more than a bunch of bulls without bulls.
Surprisingly, that item isn't among the materials dropped by the Minotaur.
This made Eugene feel incredibly fortunate.
Luckily, I'm a subspecies!
No, I should say that I am the real Cowman!
Regarding the Minotaur, its guild rating is 2, and even in a one-on-one fight, it would require a top-tier 1 adventurer to defeat it.
It belongs to the mid-level monsters and is relatively strong.
When they gather together and form a massive army of bulls, the difficulty of dealing with them increases exponentially.
But Eugene still overcame this trial head-on, proving that he was a genuine level 2 top-tier player.
Using echolocation up to the 30th floor, Eugene followed Gran at a distance, trailing him all the way to the edge of the 18th floor.
He knew that this must be one of the hidden entrances to the man-made maze.
After Gran, completely unsuspecting, took out a sphere and successfully opened the maze door.
Eugene made his move.
Click!
He deliberately broke a branch, causing a loud echo.
"Who goes there!" Gran turned around in surprise!
But all he saw was Eugene's retreating figure as he fled in panic.
Damn it! When did this guy catch up with us?!
Glenn glared at Eugene and, without a second thought, sprinted after him.
He didn't have time to call for reinforcements because Eugene had already run far away.
The secret of the man-made labyrinth is the foundation of the Icarus Familia, and must never be revealed to anyone!
The thought of his crazy commander sent a shiver down Gran’s spine. He immediately accelerated and turned into a whirlwind to chase after him!
“Very good.” Eugene used echolocation to sense the speed of Gran behind him.
"This speed is acceptable; it's most likely level 3."
If it were level 4, there would be a significant increase in speed, and he definitely wouldn't be able to run that far.
Reassured, Eugene deliberately led Grant deeper into the jungle, while Grant, eager to catch up, assumed he was panicking and gave chase.
Finally, Eugene's vision cleared up.
A suitable-sized open space appeared before us.
The clock strikes twelve.
The incantation was uttered, and Eugene's appearance changed rapidly.
A ferocious minotaur, clad in full armor, descended from the heavens like a demon god, crashing to the ground!
"Varied!!"
Stunned by the sight before him, Gran never expected that the opponent he was chasing would be a monster!
"You are a heretic!"
The moment Gran saw Eugene in full armor, he understood.
Could this guy be one of the accomplices of those who were sold off?
"Ha, they actually tracked us all the way here."
Gran gave a mocking smile and smugly remarked, "Too bad, they've already been transported out of Orario, which means you'll never see them again!"
Zheng!
He pulled a sharp machete from his lower back, his eyes filled with greed.
He believes he is faster than Eugene, at least in terms of speed.
"Since you two are such good friends, why don't you come with me?"
"I, your great lord, will reunite you all!!"
call!
Before he finished speaking, his body had already leaned forward sharply, transforming into a sharp afterimage. Wherever he passed, the wind cut through the tough grass!
So fast!
Eugene's pupils contracted.
The Lv3 top-tier attributes are indeed very strong!
But you were too reckless!
Facing the enemy swooping down like a falcon, Eugene didn't hesitate and spat out a mouthful of phlegm!
A blazing flame rapidly condensed within his not-so-large mouth.
The next second, a huge flash of light erupted!
Monsters cannot speak or chant spells.
Therefore, magic extracted from monsters is automatically considered as instant-cast magic without chanting!
Eugene's eyes flashed with madness.
Come and see for yourself!
Forty layers of enhancement! Fiery Breath XL!
"Fuck!!!"
Gran's confident and arrogant expression instantly crumbled as a strong sense of crisis pressed down on him!
The moment the flames flashed in Eugene's mouth, that shiny bald head went numb and clenched until it lost all feeling!
You absolutely must not get hit by this move!
Despite being one of the weakest monsters in the middle level, the Hellhound has claimed the lives of countless adventurers with its fiery breath.
