Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 713 The King of the Eternal City
When Japal saw that the silver teardrop wasn't imitating his own figure, he felt a sense of relief.

He couldn't help but relax his stance, ready to unleash a powerful attack at any moment, and prepare to test his skills against this new character.

As the silver teardrops transformed, a tall, thin man appeared in the smoke. He was wearing a rather ornate robe, but his exposed head was wrapped in tattered strips of cloth, making him look like a deranged serial killer.

The man was holding a weapon that looked even bigger than he did, and the weapon itself had a strange shape.

It had a long handle like a spear, but the head was an exaggeratedly large saw gear, which was still slowly rotating.

The name of this weapon is Giza's Spiked Wheel.

The character that the silver teardrop imitates is named "Kisa the Torturer".

No adventurer has seen this afterimage in the Sien Dungeon so far, because it was originally an intruder that would appear in a map called [Volcano Mansion].

But why do the silver teardrops here mimic his appearance?
Without even considering the reasons behind this, the silver teardrop had already spun the spiked wheel, and the buzzing serrations were already smashing towards Japal.

"As expected, it's more interesting to fight against different opponents."

Although the opponent was still the Silver Teardrop, the difference of being able to fight a different opponent was enough to bring tears to Japal's eyes.

Sometimes he can be quite comedic.

Judging from its appearance alone, Giza's spiked wheel can be unmistakably identified as a heavy weapon, and an extremely heavy one at that. It's hard to imagine that Giza's not-so-robust physique could wield it so freely.

Heavy weapons are powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks with their own weight, and for the enemy, a mere graze or a direct hit is enough to injure or kill them.

However, the disadvantage of heavy weapons is the same as their advantage: they are too heavy, to the point that they affect the accuracy of their hits.

Just like when hunters' greatswords are still charging up, waiting to unleash a nuclear explosion of damage, the monsters they're hunting suddenly fly into the air/burrow underground/charge into the ground/roar, or roar, etc., so they either dodge the attack or interrupt the charging up.

Just as the excessively heavy spiked wheel swung by the silver teardrop was about to hit Japal's head, the opponent had already anticipated its trajectory and dodged in advance.

Even though the silver teardrop desperately tried to change the trajectory of its weapon midway, it still swung very slowly, and its trajectory was easily seen through.

Japal tried to block the attack; it was heavy and put some strain on his arm, but he could easily dodge it.

What's the point of blocking then? He cherishes his weapon very much!
Without even using his ultimate move, [Slash Domain], when the Silver Tear's weapon swung and hit the ground, Japal immediately jumped back to create distance and unleashed the magic sword energy of the famous sword Moon Shadow. The sword energy was almost always accurate, and each hit caused the Silver Tear to spurt out silvery-white "blood".

Silver teardrops rushed up, and Japal retreated again, using the combat technique of the famous sword Moon Concealment, repeating this process over and over.

In the end, the silver teardrop was defeated.

As the monster vanished, two purple dots of light remained in place.

[Residue of a silver teardrop]

[By infusing magic, the remaining active silver teardrop can coat the entire body, temporarily transforming the user into the object the silver teardrop imitated before its death.]

[Being attacked during transformation will shorten the transformation time, but external attacks will be blocked by the silver teardrops, protecting the main body.]

[The model for this remaining body: "The Torturer" Kiza]

Japar blinked as he looked at the thing.

This thing has a similar name to "The Remains of a Silver Tear", but its effects are quite different.

Is this equivalent to getting a temporary Sion Dungeon Remnant experience card?

"This effect looks so familiar," Japal muttered to himself, feeling a sense of déjà vu about the transformation.

By the way, isn't the "Thirty Heroes" in the Glory Dungeon supposed to allow adventurers to transform into ancient heroes and participate in battles?
Japar once spent a lot of money and effort to draw the hero he wanted from the Thirty Heroes, but ended up losing everything. Since then, he has blacklisted the Glory Dungeon and never wants to go in again.

But some people are addicted to collecting hero fragments, shouting "Thirty heroes, start!" as soon as they open their eyes every day to go in and draw cards.

The Glory Dungeon is now a place with a very polarized reputation.

The other purple dot was another fragment of a stone tablet. [The Eternal King recorded all his opponents on his conquests; he could transform into countless forms alone, an act revered by the teardrops.]

Japar stroked the stubble on his chin and muttered to himself:
"So, the guy I just hit might have been recorded by the Eternal King, but why can other silver teardrops also transform?"

"Could it be that when the Eternal King transformed, the other teardrops imitated it?"

Japar put away the stone tablets, intending to use them to tease and seduce some of the old scholars he knew.

In the realm of the Dark Gods, it seems that there really is only one kind of demon: the Teardrop.

Whether black or silver, they all look like they were carved from the same mold before they were deformed.

The Silver Tear seems to be an elite-level monster. Although he seems to have encountered many along the way, almost all the Silver Tears in the entire Dark Night Divine Realm are here.

As for the black teardrops, those things are like insects in front of a truck in front of Japar; you can run them over without feeling anything.

He walked steadily on the road leading to the most conspicuous temple, and the closer he got to the temple, the higher the quality of the silver teardrops became.

The quality mentioned here refers to the object being imitated.

The silver teardrops near the temple no longer imitated Japar, but instead had their own fixed objects of imitation.

This indirectly confirms Japal's earlier conjecture—the silver teardrops along the early stages of the Night God Realm are easier to pass by teaming up with teammates, and the stronger a lone traveler is individually, the greater the resistance they will encounter here.

Thinking of this, he missed Leon and the others who had gotten separated from him even more.

Hopefully they're having fun in the Sien dungeon.

On the way to the temple, the silver teardrops that blocked his way mimicked one figure after another.

"Blood Knight" Juno Hoslau.

Dolores, the "Sleeping Arrow".

"Pure Purple Blood Finger" Elunera.

One after another, the afterimages imitated by the silver teardrops appeared, each with its own unique skills and its own troublesome aspects, but Japal found a way to break them.

It's hard to say whether these afterimages mimicked by the silver teardrops represent their true strength, but Japal tends to think otherwise.

He was also lucky enough to obtain another remnant of a silver teardrop, this time from Junohoslau.

He kept all these whimsical gadgets unused because he felt it wasn't the right time to use them yet.

But if you ask him when it's actually usable, he probably won't be able to answer. He just feels that such a precious item shouldn't be used casually.

Each silver teardrop that mimics a named afterimage leaves behind a small stone tablet with inscriptions after its death.

The teardrops, mimicking the figure of the Eternal King, became imitations of the heroes.

The Eternal King, isolated from Noklon, believing that two kings could not coexist, chose to distance itself from the other king.

Another king arrived here just before his departure, and he found the Eternal King.

As the magical characters on the stone tablet appeared one after another, Japal imagined a storyline.

At this moment, he stood at the entrance of the temple, his hands already resting on the heavy doors.

"Rumble--"

A muffled thud echoed through the dark realm of the gods.

Japar opened the door to the audience.
