Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

"You…" Seth's eyes were fixed on Caron, his voice hoarse and trembling, "Who exactly are you? To be able to control the Deathly Silence Orb… you can't be some nobody!"

Charon did not answer; he simply stared coldly at Set, the eerie green flames flickering calmly in his eye sockets, and the amber gem atop the Eye of Horus scepter shone brightly once more.

The third Deathly Stillness Orb is forming.

Seth's pupils contracted sharply.

He no longer hesitated.

With a "snap," he crushed the prop he had hidden in his mouth.

Black light exploded from inside his body, and his body shattered like a bomb, breaking into millions of fist-sized scarabs.

He transformed himself directly into a swarm of insects!

In this form, he can be reborn as long as one beetle escapes!

The swarm of insects rushed frantically toward the gap in the treasure vault's curtain, their buzzing wings sounding like a runaway engine.

"Trying to run away?"

Liu Nian's twelve wings of light suddenly flapped, and the holy light in the Heavenly Kingdom's Divine Punishment Domain surged wildly, burning tens of thousands of scarabs in the secret room to ashes!

However, the treasury was too small, and the power of the Heavenly Punishment Domain was limited by the unique environment of the Mithril Treasury. Meanwhile, Seth had already swept up Kaft and rushed out of the water gate.

Liu Nian teleported away, but the swarm scattered and disappeared into narrow gaps in all directions. Liu Nian originally wanted to chase after the largest swarm, the one that had taken Kaft.

But Kalon said, "Master, that was just bait. His true form split into billions of beetles. As long as even one can escape, he won't die!"

The implication is that whether or not you pursue her is meaningless.

Upon hearing this, Liu Nian had no choice but to give up.

There was nothing that could be done. After all, the other party was also a top-tier existence in this game. A level 999 eternal BOSS was determined to run away, and there was really no way to stop it.

However, the main objective of this trip has already been achieved, and encountering Seth was merely an accident.

After retrieving Kalon, Liu Nian stood in the passageway outside the vault, his gaze sweeping over the scattered, fleeing beetle shadows around him.

Although Seth ran away, he probably won't just slink back to his own territory like that.

A level 999 eternal BOSS was beaten and forced to flee in a sorry state by a "Dragonman General". If this gets out, where will he put his face?

Moreover, he came to the Golden City to take advantage of the chaos and gain benefits, but now he not only failed to gain any benefits but also almost lost his life. Given his personality, he is definitely not willing to accept this.

"He won't go far," Liu Nian thought. "He'll most likely just move to another place and keep looking for opportunities to steal chickens."

That makes things easier.

Liu Nian took out a map, glanced at it, and located the No. 2 refined gold vault.

"Let's see if we can stop him."

He put away the map, and in a flash, disappeared into the shadows of the passage.

The Mithril Vault No. 2 is located lower than the Mithril Vault No. 3, in the lower-middle area of ​​the pyramid. Liu Nian traveled through it, encountering several waves of undead guards along the way, which he easily cleared. He ran through it a few times with unstoppable momentum, but there were no loot drops.

When he arrived at the outer perimeter of Vault No. 2, he could hear the sounds of fighting in the distance.

The violent energy explosions were deafening, and the vibrations could be felt even through a floor.

Liu Nian tiptoed around a thick load-bearing column and saw the scene ahead.

Outside the gate of Mithril Vault No. 2, on the relatively open circular platform, two figures were engaged in fierce combat.

One of them was a dark green beetle-like figure—Seth.

His size was smaller than before, and there were obvious cracks and repair marks on his carapace. It was clear that his condition was not as good as before after his heavy armor form was broken, but he was still fierce, swinging his bone blade with his arms, and dark green plague energy surged wildly.

The other figure was a woman.

To be precise, she is a female vampire.

She was tall and slender, wearing a full set of tight-fitting dark red leather clothes. Her skin was the pale white unique to vampires, her features were exquisite and cold, and her long black hair flew in the battle like a flag.

Her weapons were two slender, blood-red rapiers, their blades shimmering with a dark red light. Each thrust was accompanied by a sharp, whistling sound, like a venomous snake spitting its tongue.

【LV999 Nofila (Vampire Prince - Eternal BOSS)】

Liu Nian raised an eyebrow.

Nofila? Is that the ninth-ranked female princess?

Her fighting style was fierce and precise, with each sword strike aimed directly at Set's vital points.

Although Set's defense was astonishing, fine cracks kept appearing on his armor in the face of Nofila's two rapiers.

"You're no match for me anymore." Nofila's voice was icy, like clashing ice crystals. "You're in terrible shape. Just admit defeat and I might spare your life!"

"Bullshit!" Seth roared, slashing down with his bone blade. "A ninth-ranked prince dares to be arrogant in front of me?"

Seth was surprised to be thwarted by Liu Nian. He rushed to the No. 2 Mithril Vault, only to encounter Nofila again!

This trip yielded absolutely no benefits; instead, it inadvertently helped that kid Shams step on two major landmines!

The two clashed again, with bursts of energy erupting one after another.

Liu Nian glanced at it twice and then lost interest.

Although Seth is not in good condition, his individual combat strength is indeed very strong, and his survival skills are also very advanced, so it is highly likely that this battle will not have any results.

Liu Nian had no interest in getting involved. He quietly retreated without disturbing the two sides in the battle and continued walking down the passage.

He took out a map and glanced at the location of Vault No. 1, his brows furrowing slightly.

Treasure Vault 1 is located at the very bottom—the "apex" of the pyramid.

That coordinate almost overlaps with the location of the duel between the vampire prince and Pharaoh Shams.

"So, Shams' true form is near Vault 1?"

Liu Nian put away the map and quickened his pace.

The further down you go, the louder the commotion becomes.

More and more battle marks appeared on the walls on both sides of the passage—claw marks, sword energy, scorched marks, corroded pits, and a large amount of broken flesh and bone fragments.

Some were undead, some were vampires, lying haphazardly, a scene of utter chaos...

The air was thick with the stench of blood and the aftershocks of energy, and occasionally, explosions and shouts of battle could be heard from afar.

In this final stretch, there are basically no undead blocking the way anymore; they have probably all been eliminated by the vampires, or summoned by Shams to the place of the final battle.

As Liu Nian rounded the last corner, a bright and open space suddenly appeared before him.

This place actually looks like a huge desert rather than the interior of a city. There are no traces of buildings to be seen. If Liu Nian hadn't walked in through this corridor, he would have thought he was in a desert.
