He pulled a crumpled blueprint from his pocket and handed it to Rin: "This is a blueprint I secretly drew over three months. It's incomplete, but it can at least help you avoid most of the surveillance. Their defenses still have loopholes."

The drawings were densely marked with various symbols and paths. Youxing quickly scanned them, noted down the key points, and then looked up: "Doctor, you've helped us this far, aren't you afraid they'll settle scores with us later?"

Dr. Wada suddenly laughed: "I still consider myself a human being. I'm only helping them so I can get money to complete my project."

As for aiding and abetting evil, Dr. Wada never even considered it.

Looking at the group, he took out a palm-sized silver disc from his pocket and handed it to Youxing: "Take this. This is a miniature time field device that I developed independently. It has a small range and can only cover one person, but it can create a small time zone, forcing the wearer's time flow to return to the surface flow rate."

Ok?

This amazing artifact immediately gave Yuuki many ideas for how to use it. He looked at the doctor with gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you for your help, Doctor."

"As long as it helps you, that's all that matters. I hope you can return safely."

Dr. Wada waved his hand.

With such assistance, the octopus-like Otherworldly God stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Doctor, once I rescue them, I will return to thank you in person."

"Let's talk about it when you come back alive. I can't help you any more now."

Dr. Wada looked away, but his voice softened.

The four of them didn't linger any longer and continued down the stairs.

They soon arrived at the bottom floor, where a vast, enclosed underground space was revealed before them.

Countless clones walk, turn, and return along fixed routes, all with identical faces.

"Don't delay."

They only glanced at it, and Yuuki led the group forward.

Just then, a slight electrical noise suddenly came from the overhead loudspeaker, followed by Dr. Wada's voice.

"That room isn't far from you. Just walk straight after you cross this area."

With Dr. Wada's guidance, the group sped up and soon came to a passage with an iron door inside.

There were no markings on the iron gate, only a narrow horizontal observation slit, so narrow that it was almost impossible to see inside.

The four stopped in front of the door. Momotaros, carrying a sword, tilted his head and looked at the crack in the door.

"I have a bad feeling." He lowered his voice, a rare occurrence, and his usual carefree tone was gone.

Yu Xing took a deep breath, and without hesitating for too long, stepped forward and placed her hand on the push bar on the side of the iron gate.

With a dull thud, the metal door slowly opened inward.

The space inside the door was not large, only about 20 square meters. The lighting was brighter than in the corridor, with light shining down from the four corners of the ceiling, illuminating a metal chair.

A person is sitting in the chair.

The body was tall and imposing, with shoulders nearly half again as wide as an average person's, and covered entirely in golden armor.

However, his hands, neck, and waist were fixed in place by heavy mechanical braces, and his eyes were closed.

Looking at the person in front of him, Momotaros slammed the knife in his hand to the ground with a clang.

"Old Jin?"

His voice trembled with disbelief for the first time; he never expected to run into an acquaintance here.

Upon hearing the noise, Quintalos slightly raised his head, his eyes still closed, with a giant axe beside him.

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

Seeing that Kintaros did not respond, Momotaros rushed forward, wanting to go up and ask what was going on, but Yuuki raised her hand to stop him.

Something's not right.

Momotaros stiffened, his anxious heart calmed down, and he finally realized the problem.

Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the mechanical devices on Kintalos's body emitted a faint red glow, with steam billowing out from them.

"boom!!!"

To the astonishment of the group, the mechanical supports holding Kintaros in place shattered, and a towering figure rose from the table and chairs, wielding a giant axe.

"Intruders must all die!"

Chapter 177 Zero Nors

As the shadows descended, Momotaros, standing at the forefront, watched the falling giant axe, his mind reeling with alarm.

"I rely on!"

He shouted and rolled away without hesitation, returning to Youxing and the others.

"boom!"

The giant axe fell, shattering the alloy ground at an incredible speed.

Looking at the shattered ground, Momotaros got up and patted his chest.

If he hadn't dodged, he would probably have been cleaved in two from head to toe if he had taken that hit.

"Your old friend doesn't seem to be doing well."

Even Yuuki was slightly taken aback by the destructive power of Kintaros.

Previously, he could achieve such an effect with a casual punch, but now he can only leave a fist imprint on this alloy ground at most.

In terms of pure strength, none of them can rival Quintalos right now.

"flash!"

Fortunately, the others remained where they were, but Quintalos wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

Upon hearing Rin's call, Yuuki looked up and saw the axe coming at him, and his body instantly turned into a cloud of sand.

Then, he coiled up a wisp of light and quickly teleported to the other side of the room, dodging Kintaros's attack.

The other two reacted quickly, putting distance between themselves and the clumsy Kintaros almost instantly.

Therefore, the trembling axe only damaged the floor of the room and posed no threat to them.

"We have to remove all the devices from his body!"

Seeing Kintaros pull the axe from the ground, Momotaros took advantage of Kintaros's slow movement and quickly called out to Yuuki.

The octopus Otherworldly being nearby naturally heard Momotaros's shout and, without hesitation, launched his tentacles out.

Nine tentacles shot out at high speed through the air, instantly binding Kintaros tightly.

But this restriction was not very effective; Quintalos' muscles bulged high, and mechanical devices continuously spewed steam outwards.

"call!"

With just a slight struggle, the octopus demon's face instantly turned red, and several of its tentacles were stretched to their limits.

"Hurry up!"

Gritting his teeth, he shouted, and the Octopus Otherworldly God stopped talking, focusing on the tug-of-war with Kintaros.

Unable to swing his giant axe, Kintaros's eyelids began to twitch slightly, which delighted Momotaros, who noticed it.

"Let's go!"

He held a knife in his hand and slashed at Quintalos repeatedly.

Each strike collided with the mechanical device, causing it to quickly emit a wisp of smoke.

Just as he was about to completely destroy the first device attached to Kintalos's arm, a voice made him stop.

"Peach, stop cutting it."

The familiar voice startled Momotaros, who looked up and met Kintaros's gaze.

Kintaros's eyes were full of weariness, even tinged with a hint of gloom, but when he saw Momotaros, a faint light appeared deep within his eyes.

"This is a trap!"

Quintalos was in a great hurry, but his body continued to struggle, completely disobeying his will.

"If you destroy the device on me, they will find you very quickly!"

"I was placed here to lure you out, so get out of here!"

Kintalos's words stunned everyone present, but he continued, "The second underground level is inaccessible by conventional methods. Who led it here?"

These words struck Yuuki and the others like a bolt from the blue, leaving them somewhat bewildered.

"Was that old man lying to us?"

The information from both sides left the octopus alien god somewhat bewildered, and its tentacles slowly loosened in response to the news, while Kintaros's body began to struggle violently.

"Don't believe him!"

Just as the group hesitated, Dr. Wada's voice came from behind them.

The group turned around and found that the door was not closed, and Wada was standing in the doorway, panting heavily.

"Never believe him!"

The fact that a single sentence came from both of them made the situation even more unpredictable.

"The key is on him, I'm sure of it, and the way to the second basement level is under that chair!"

Sweat streamed down Wada's face as he immediately pointed out the location of the key and the passage, which spurred the Octopus Otherworldly God to exert all its strength once more, trapping Kintaros tightly.

Even though his tentacles had broken and were bleeding, he did not let go in the slightest.

"If you continue to believe him, you will only fall into an abyss of no return."

Kintaros was annoyed at being forcibly suppressed on the spot. He glared at Wada and immediately explained to Momotaros in front of him.

“Peach, if you continue to remove the devices from my body, Another Den-O will soon find out what’s going on here.”

"None of you will survive! Getting into the second basement level isn't that easy!"

"I don't have any keys on me; I'm just acting as a trap!"

"If you continue like this, Ryotaro will also run into problems!"

Quintalos spoke very quickly, and under the pressure, Momotaros immediately froze on the spot.
