I am the Demon King of the Dungeon!

Chapter 99: The Dawn Squad

The entrance to the twenty-third floor is a dark purple portal without any extra decorations.

On either side of the door stood a lifelike succubus statue, with graceful figures, hands folded in front of their chests, palms holding up dark purple flames.

An Ruiwei was the first to enter the portal.

Behind the door is a long corridor covered with a dark red carpet, with huge floor-length mirrors hanging on the walls on both sides, the frames of which are intricate Rococo-style gilded carvings.

At the end of the corridor is a heart-shaped double door.

"Phantom Assassin"

An Ruiwei discovers the monster hiding in the mirror.

The Phantom Assassin has no fixed form; it flows silently between mirrors like a semi-transparent gray mist.

Carter took a step forward, transforming into the shape of a giant bear, and let out a deep roar from the depths of his throat.

The demoralizing roar shocked the Phantom Assassin who was trying to approach from the front, causing him to reveal his true form.

The summoning crystal in Lolota's palm lit up with a dark purple light, and three summoning circles unfolded simultaneously in front of her.

The Voidwalker appeared first, its translucent, deep blue body resembling a jellyfish, its hands swinging freely in the air like tentacles; two hellhounds followed closely behind, their dark red scales gleaming metallically in the candlelight of the corridor.

"superior."

As Lolota's voice faded away.

The Voidwalker extended its tentacles, entangling the phantom assassins emerging from the mirrors on either side, while the Hellhound tore them to shreds with its sharp fangs.

Eleanor walked in the middle of the group, the spellbook floating in front of her and turning its pages automatically, but she did not make a move.

Dealing with mobs doesn't require consuming the mage's mana; this is a tacit understanding among the Dawn Squad.

Ignatius walked at the back of the procession, his white robes trailing softly on the carpet. His right hand was loosely clenched, and a ball of gentle holy light slowly rotated in his palm.

To prevent any unexpected incidents, the Dawn Squad maintained an extremely steady pace of advance.

Carter, transformed into a giant bear, steadily led the way, ensuring that there was no danger with each step.

In less than fifteen minutes, the five arrived in front of the BOSS room.

An Ruiwei pushed open the door.

What comes into view is a circular hall with a dark purple crystal chandelier hanging from the dome, and a huge circular velvet carpet laid in the center of the hall.

Directly opposite is a chaise lounge decorated with dark purple silk and gold tassels, on which a graceful figure leans.

Succubus: Scarlet Dreams

Her beauty possessed an aggressive quality that instinctively drew people away. Her long black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall, her features were exquisite and alluring, and her deep red lips looked as if she had just drunk blood.

The low-cut black dress was held up by only two very thin straps, and the slit in the skirt extended to the upper thigh, revealing her fair and slender legs.

"Here we go again." The voice of Scarlet Dream was languid and charming, with a rising tone at the end, like a cat's paw gently scratching at the heart. "The last batch left in such a hurry that they didn't even have a cup of tea, which made me very sad."

"Let's do it."

An Ruiwei didn't wait for the sultry dream to continue teasing.

"Wild Charge!"

The giant bear, with its brute force, crashed straight into the Scarlet Dream.

Lolota's hellhounds pounced simultaneously; Eleanor's arcane missiles spewed from the spellbook.

"King's Blessing!"

"Blessing of Power!"

An Ruiwei raised her longsword high, offering blessings to everyone.

"Holy Word: Shield!"

Ignatius began by shielding all his teammates, starting with Calth.

"Oh."

Scarlet Dream chuckled softly. She didn't leave the chaise lounge, but simply raised her right hand and flicked her index finger in the air!

The Shadow Shockwave exploded, blasting away the oncoming Hellhound and interrupting Kal't's charge. The Arcane Missiles veered off course and crashed into the wall.

"You look so energetic." Scarlet Dream got up, her bare feet stepping on the carpet, her bat wings slowly opening behind her, the dark purple patterns on the wing membranes flowing like the blood vessels of a living creature.

An Ruiwei's pupils suddenly contracted as the BOSS's eyes turned from crimson to grayish-white.

"Petrified! Turn around immediately!"

The five people turned around almost simultaneously, their backs to the succubus.

The petrification light exploded behind everyone.

"Turn back!" An Ruiwei gave her second command.

All five of them turned around at the same time.

"Secret Technique Torrent!"

As Eleanora finished chanting, a torrent of arcane energy erupted like a volcano, crashing down on the chaise lounge.

Scarlet Dream finally left the soft couch, turning into a dark shadow and disappearing on the spot. A torrent of secret magic crashed onto the couch, turning the magnificent chaise lounge into a charred crater.

"Lolota, northeast!"

An Ruiwei and Carter simultaneously changed direction.

"Instant teleportation!"

Lolota distanced herself.

The three hellhounds attacked again, while the Voidwalker's whiskers simultaneously entangled Scarlet Dream's body.

Carter raised his bear paw high and slapped Scarlet Dreamer's right shoulder, and the bear and the demon began to fight.

An Ruiwei's Holy Light followed immediately.

The Dawn Squad's damage output suddenly exploded!

Suddenly, a summoning circle lit up in the right corner of the hall.

Two frost mages spread out thin ice; a magic mage raised his staff, conjuring a purple orb of light.

"Lolota, send one of the Hellhounds to interrupt the arcane incantation! Eleanor, you take care of that Frost Mage." Anriwei's instructions were clear and without any unnecessary emotion, while maintaining her output.

Eleanor's Void Nova exploded beneath the frost mage's feet, vaporizing both the ice and the caster.

Before the arcane mage could finish his incantation, he was pounced on from the side by a hellhound, its fangs tearing at him.

"Petrifying Light!"

This time, instead of releasing Scarlet Dream from a fixed location, she used Shadow Step to teleport to Lolota's side, who was commanding her summoned creatures.

She tried to interrupt the summoner's manipulation and spread petrification to more targets, but the Dawn Squad reacted faster than expected, and everyone's gaze consciously shifted away.

Seeing that the petrifying light had no effect, Scarlet Dream put her finger to her lips and gave Carter a flying kiss.

Bewitched, the bear slapped An Ruiwei's right arm with its paw.

"The hammer of judgment!"

Anriwi threw her hammer, stunning Carter.

The team continued to output Scarlet Dream.

After several skill cycles, the Dawn Squad handled everything in an orderly manner, and neither the petrifying light nor the summoned mages posed any threat.

Those who were charmed were controlled by Anrivi and Lolota in turns to prevent them from disrupting the battlefield.

Arthas and the other members of the Vastness Squad watched the live feed from the safe zone on the 23rd floor, and he couldn't help but admire the Dawn Squad's execution capabilities.

Back to the battlefield.

The alluring smile on Scarlet Dream's lips faded slightly, because the team in front of her was more coordinated than the previous one.

She raised her right hand above her head, fingers spread wide.

All the crystal chandeliers in the hall went out at the same time, and the eerie purple flames exploded at the last moment, turning into countless rays of light as thin as hair that poured down from the dome.

"Don't blame your older sister if you get wet."

"Rain of Desire!"

A torrential downpour of eerie purple light fell.

"Holy Word - Bless!"

Ignatius raised his hands, and a golden shield rose from the ground, enveloping all five of them.

The light rain fell on the shield's surface, producing a dense sound.

"A hymn of praise!"

A sacred melody resounded in the hall, and a golden pillar of light descended from the sky, covering the shattering shield. The double barrier blocked all the damage from the Rain of Desire.

The moment the light rain stopped, the light shield shattered, turning into countless golden specks of light, but no one was injured.

Upon seeing this, Scarlet Dream's pupils suddenly changed color, but this time it was not grayish-white, but a very deep dark purple. The bat wings on her back began to tremble violently, and the patterns on the wing membranes shone like red-hot branding irons.

She crossed her hands in front of her chest, interlaced her fingers, and compressed a ball of dark purple energy into her palms, which continued to expand.

That was a move the Oracle Squad had never encountered before...
