Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 567 Welcome to Nimgfu
There is no doubt about that figure!
The one stepping on Greg's body was the gatekeeper Gotok who had previously called on the adventurers to open the gate.

Although Gotok would make a few sarcastic remarks when adventurers insisted on choosing to go through the main gate, his behavior of proactively asking people to take the secret path at the beginning was okay, so he should be liked by adventurers, right?

"It's the guy who stole the money."

However, Yuffie's face darkened when she saw Gotok.

"He actually dares to show up here." Fann also revealed a dangerous look, and his sharp claws were shining.

What's going on? Why does it seem like the adventurers don't treat Gotok very well?

"What's the matter with stealing money?" Leon asked with interest, throwing a flying knife at the other party.

The flying knife sank deeply into the ground at Gotok's feet. Although it missed on purpose, he let out a scream of "Ahhh!" and dared not touch his lord's corpse anymore. He looked over here timidly.

I always feel that the afterimages of the Sean dungeon are more humane than those of other dungeons, Leon thought to himself.

"This guy is a shadow that guides people. He is said to be a guide, but in fact, anyone with eyes can see such a large side road. His only role is to help people open the gate in advance." Isa took on the role of commentator and explained:
"We originally thought he was just an ordinary guy. We couldn't even figure out why Sean kept him as an afterimage," Isa said, looking at Gotok as if he were a scum. "But later when we were exploring Stonewell City, we found that after death, Rune decreased more than before, and his belongings were often lost."

"Could it be?" Leon probably knew what Isa was going to say.

"Yeah, this guy stole them all. If you look back a few steps while exploring the city, you can see this bastard secretly following us. He even stole things from dead people!"

"That's too bad!" Malu couldn't help but punch and shout.

"Then the reason you didn't kill him," said Drew, who was already experienced in dungeon exploration, "was it because you were worried that killing him would cause some afterimage events to disappear?"

His guess was correct. Even though Gotok was really annoying, due to the afterimage incident, no one had heard of anyone killing Gotok so far. At most, he would be beaten up. As long as Gotok could be beaten up, he would not steal things again during this exploration.

This guy is also the only one in the Sen Dungeon who will not become hostile to adventurers even if he is beaten up. Or should we say he doesn't dare to?
"Is that so? Then what is his reason for taking revenge on Greg?" Leon asked.

"I don't know, I just know that he said Greg has been exploiting and insulting him." Isa shook her head.

"Really?" Leon nodded, and said nothing more. He just asked, "You said just now that if you kill the afterimage, only your exploration of the dungeon will be affected."

“Whatever you want to do might cause certain events to disappear,” Isa advised.

"That's right, only your own exploration will be affected. It has nothing to do with your companions. And I don't think that guy is related to any important events." Vann actually spoke at this time.

Leon looked up at him, and their eyes met, communicating something.

People don't know what Greg did to the gatekeeper, but based on the current experience, everyone has a higher favorable impression of Greg.

Yuffie went over to ask what Gotok was doing, and the answers she got were nothing more than "This guy humiliated me, so I want revenge", "From now on I am free and can do whatever I want", etc., mixed with some giggles.

She looked carefully and confirmed that the things this guy was selling didn't seem to be rare.

So he punched Gotok and walked away, even though he offended him and couldn't buy anything.

After all this discussion, everyone decided to go to Stonewell City first and look for the location of the Divine Tower according to the instructions on the stone tablet, and then turned and left.

Soon after everyone left, Gotok, who was beaten and covered in wounds, trembled and climbed up, saying with a tone full of resentment: "You lowly faded ones, I will teach you a lesson in the future!"

There was a gleam of resentment in his eyes and he tried hard to raise his head.

Then he met the eyes behind the thief's hood.

".Ah!" Gotok was stunned for a moment, then suddenly jumped up. He didn't know when a man wearing a thief's mask appeared in front of him. He was as scary as a ghost!
"Shush--" The mysterious masked man made a hushing gesture to him, then slowly drew out the Ringed Knight's straight sword.

"Wait, what are you doing? Wait a minute—"

A mysterious killing sound effect sounded.

"I am free and I can do whatever I want." Gotok's last words rang out.

Drop [Gotok's Bell Bead] x1
The mysterious masked man put away his weapon, suddenly turned around, and met the eyes of Vann, who was leaning against a tree trunk and staring at him.

After exchanging glances, we found that we had the same goal.

Fann was still a little surprised and asked uncertainly, "Leon?"

The mysterious masked man patted him on the shoulder affectionately and waved for him to follow. The smile beneath the mask was proof of his sunny attitude.

"People who make you unhappy should be beaten. Do you think so too?" Leon's voice came from under the hood.

Fann was stunned for a moment, but when he thought about how he was also planning to come back secretly to beat up Gotok, and that his goal was somewhat the same as Leon's, except that the other party's methods were more radical, he felt like an accomplice and laughed:

"That's right, that's what we have to do!"

"Where have you been? You're so slow." After a moment, Youfei asked the two people who had returned to the team.

Leon and Fann didn't say anything, just smiled at each other and kept the secret.

"When did you two become so close?" You Fei complained helplessly.

I was thinking about training Vann to fight against Leon in the future. What does it mean that they have a good relationship? Will he show mercy when they fight in the future?

She had been training Vann with Leon and Dahl as imaginary enemies, but now she couldn't talk to Leon naturally, which made her feel a little awkward. "Forget it, let's not talk about that. The God-granting Tower seems to be right in front of us, surprisingly close."

After leaving Greg's fog gate and walking to the other side, you will encounter an extremely spacious hall. Opposite the door is an excessively large bridge, and there is also a white-haired lion guarding nearby, which looks super dangerous.

However, for the group of powerful people, the threat posed by such a monster was naturally nothing. It was much easier to fight than the red wolf of the academy and was quickly dealt with.

Passing through the hall filled with knight sculptures, we arrived at the bridge. The sound of waves crashing on the sea under the bridge immediately reached our ears, and the salty and humid air entered our nostrils, making us feel open-minded.

At the end of the bridge, there stands a tall tower reaching into the sky.

The storm surrounding Stonewell City ushered in the dawn at the top of the tower. The rare bright sunshine poured down from the gap in the storm, adding a sacred feeling to the entire tower.

"I knew at first glance that it was the Divine Grant Tower. It really has a unique aura."

"The scenery here is also very attractive." The strategy team exclaimed.

"What would a certain bat lady say if she were here?" Malu suddenly smiled slyly.

"Wow, if we take a picture of this scenery and put it in our strategy guide, we will definitely make a lot of money!" Leon said it in a serious manner, imitating someone else's tone, and instantly a joyful atmosphere echoed in the strategy guide group.

"I really envy them." Vann showed an envious look. The atmosphere in the strategy group was so joyful that he wanted to join in.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Yu Fei noticed his disloyalty in time and quickly grabbed his arm and said, "Didn't I say there are two more apprentices? I'll introduce them to you when the time comes. I'm sure you guys will get along well!"

What a joke! Is it possible that her generals are going to rebel before the competition with her father even begins?

In short, after much persuasion, Vann's restless heart finally returned to loyalty.

As soon as they stepped onto the bridge, a rumbling sound was heard and the bridge surface was shaking violently. Everyone soon discovered the source of the noise - several huge golems that were much larger than trolls were slowly climbing up!

Outside the encirclement of the golems was the road leading directly to the Tower of Divine Bestowal. Leon winked at his companions, and everyone understood. Drew directly cast Wind Walk on everyone and then ran away.

Who wants to fight several giant golems at the same time? Business matters first!
The golem holding a halberd pounded the ground repeatedly like a game of whack-a-mole.

The golem with flames coming out of its chest spewed hot magma towards the group.

The golem held the bow tightly, drew the bow and drew the arrow, shooting oversized arrows as big as telephone poles at the crowd, and each arrow made the bridge tremble.

It was truly a thrilling running journey. Any ordinary team would have probably failed here.

Fortunately, Yufei and Leon were not ordinary people. Relying on their swift legs, they successfully arrived at the door of the Divine Tower without any bloodshed and successfully pushed the door open before being hit by arrows.

A peculiar smell of dust from an ancient building hit my nose, and what came into view was a huge elevator with several braziers surrounding it. The firelight dispelled the cold and illuminated the various meaningless relief murals on the walls, making it look particularly mysterious.

Before anyone could appreciate the sight, the golems rushed over. They had no choice but to start the elevator, which quickly rose into the sky and apparently headed straight for the top of the tower.

At this time, people were talking and laughing, and had no idea what they would see in a moment.

"Giant fingers?"

At the top of the tower in the morning light, a hand taller than an adult lay quietly in the center. Surprisingly, the hand had only two fingers, and the skin seemed to have been weathered and broken, giving off a weird atmosphere.

And in the center of the two fingers, a rune shaped exactly like Greg's Great Rune floated there quietly, emitting golden light.

"There really are all kinds of strange things in the Thane dungeon."

Leon looked at the [two fingers] carefully, and after making sure that the other party would not suddenly resurrect, he walked up bravely, stretched out his palm engraved with the Great Rune symbol and touched the rune in the air.

The next moment, a faint golden light flowed from the rune into his body, and the rune symbol on the back of his hand became brighter, as if it had been "activated".

"The only thing left is the rune bend."

Leon stroked the back of his hand with satisfaction, his face full of joy at trying new things.

People walked over one by one to activate the Great Rune, looking like good kids waiting in line.

Leon walked to the side of the tower, where he could overlook the sea and the entire Nimgfu scene.

No, it was not just Nimgefu, the scenes in the distance were all blurred in his eyes, and the earth of various colors appeared in front of him, as if a magnificent painting was slowly unfolding before his eyes.

It was not until he saw this extraordinarily spectacular sight that Leon felt that he had once again arrived in Sean.

“I’ve arrived at a new place.”

He stroked the solid bricks of the wall; the cool touch made him feel particularly comfortable. Now he was only thinking about where to explore so that he could appreciate the beauty of the new area.

Just then, he was patted on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw it was Vann.

Vann leaned against the wall, his slightly curly short hair blowing in the wind. He stuffed a roll of Nimgufu map made by an adventurer into Leon's hands and said with a cool smile:

"Welcome to Nimgefu."
