at the moment……
"Hey, we meet again, big guy."
Do you miss us?
Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying stood on one side of the entrance to the 'Throne Hall' and greeted the 'big skeleton' inside.
The way they chatted so warmly was as if they were visiting a friend's house.
And that floor owner...
Yes, Udayus, motionless.
The atmosphere felt somewhat strange.
Finn and the others gave slightly awkward, wry smiles.
They certainly knew this, probably because Ying had previously gone to the 39th floor alone to set up a teleportation anchor point, so the Twin Stars must have passed through here quite a bit recently.
For an ordinary person, that would be a journey with a nine-out-of-ten chance of survival.
But with [Xiao] present, the situation is completely different.
The ability to 'teleport' is just that useful.
This is something you can't get through jealousy.
At this time...
“I’m telling you, Finn.”
The angelic Tiona couldn't help but add, "This is 'Udeos,' you know. Is Ais really going to challenge it alone?"
She had asked this question countless times along the way.
It can only be said that even the usually oblivious Tiona was this worried... This shows just how difficult Udeus is to deal with.
As for her words of concern...
"This time, I'm going to do it all by myself."
Ais's expression was quite solemn.
If she was usually a delicate, doll-like girl with no personality, then now... she really seems to be showing signs of 'turning evil'.
Fortunately, Ais isn't the type to act innocent after getting a good deal.
She knew that her willfulness had caused a lot of trouble for everyone around her.
Even so...
"Please, please don't make a move."
With a pleading tone, the words faded into silence.
Ais drew the 'Sword of Despair' from her waist and walked alone toward Udeus, who was currently in the center of the 'Throne Hall' and seemed to be in a 'quiet' state.
At the same time...
[Stars gather here—]
It was nighttime, and with the mana regeneration buff from the 'Starry Abyss' skill fully active, Ling Shu (the main body) had plenty of mana, so Ying directly summoned [Xiao].
Undoubtedly, this is an insurance policy designed to prevent unforeseen circumstances from occurring.
After all, when it comes to saving lives, Xiao, who has the ability to teleport, is unmatched by anyone except Paimon, who currently has to hide his identity.
Among them, even Bert, who was the fastest, had to admit defeat.
and so……
"Thank you for your help, Ying."
Rivera knew the little girl's intention and immediately expressed her gratitude.
Regarding this...
"It's nothing, just a small favor."
Ying smiled and replied, "Moreover, part of the reason why Ais acted so recklessly this time is because of me and Sora."
"Since the incident originated on our side, we should make sure Ais is safe and sound no matter what."
Her words were exactly what Finn and the others wanted to hear.
As they talked, the atmosphere within the team improved considerably.
Because everyone present knew that the young immortal possessed the ability of 'teleportation'.
With him watching over her, Ais's safety level would indeed increase significantly.
To be honest, Finn and the others have always been very curious about the 'Genshin Impact' community.
Unfortunately, the [Xiao] in the present world always gives people a 'keep away' aura, making it seem difficult to get along with.
So much so that even Tiona didn't take the initiative to speak to her, but only secretly glanced at her from the side.
Xiao had no intention of speaking up. He put away his Thousand Rock Spear, crossed his arms, and stood at the far side of the squad, watching the movements inside the Throne Room.
At the same time...
"Lights, camera, action!"
As soon as he acted on his impulse, Ling Shu (Kong) secretly summoned Paimon, who had been keeping hidden.
At this moment, the latter had already floated to one side of the dome above the 'Throne Hall', took out the 'smartphone', turned on the video recording function, and held it in front of her with her two small hands.
It was at this time...
"Om~"
With a chilling energy fluctuation, Udeos, which had been 'still', began to move.
All that could be seen was its enormous skeleton, with only its upper body visible, slowly moving amidst a series of teeth-grinding "crackling" sounds.
With sharp horns on both sides at its top, resembling a demon's skull, the dark red light shining from the two eye sockets slowly locked onto Ais's location.
then……
"Bang!"
Without warning, it was as if a fleeting afterimage had passed through the air.
Udeus suddenly sprang up and punched the spot where Ais was.
Despite its enormous size, its attack was incredibly swift and fierce.
It was as if all those slow, deliberate movements were a facade.
and……
"Boom!"
Ais is ultimately a high-stat Lv.5 with special skills and special magic.
Under normal circumstances, when she uses the 'Revenge Princess' skill and the 'Wind Spirit Swiftness' magic at the same time, she can make up for the level difference to some extent.
But, as long as the 'black wind' doesn't appear...
"!"
Udeos's punch was so fast it almost created a sonic boom.
Although Ais narrowly dodged the attack by leaping backward, immediately afterward, right where the enormous bone fist had landed, dark bone spikes suddenly emerged from the ground.
She could no longer completely dodge...
"Pfft~"
In the blink of an eye, before Ais could even activate 'Wind Spirit Swiftness', the armor on her left shoulder was ripped off.
She instinctively tilted her head, revealing a very obvious wound on her left cheek from the protruding bone spur.
If she had reacted any slower, a whole chunk of flesh might have been ripped off her delicate face.
The very first encounter was fraught with danger.
Chapter 117 Sword Maiden VS Udeos (Combined)
According to records kept within the 'guild', Udeos' attack methods can be roughly divided into the following three types.
The first is purely physical (skeletal) movement.
Secondly, based on the former, one can temporarily enhance the parts of the body used in an attack with 'magic power' to increase the power of punches and palm strikes.
Then there are those bone spurs that burst forth from the ground.
In fact, this thing should be called a 'reverse stake'.
Udaius as a whole has no lower body... or rather: it has no 'humanoid' lower body.
Because it is essentially a tree.
The Skeleton Tree.
Under these circumstances, Udeus's lower body was actually a complex network of 'bone tree roots' that spread throughout the underground of the 'throne hall'.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that, despite the 'Throne Hall' occupying a considerable area, no expeditionary force that came to attack Udeus in the past was able to wear it down simply by using 'ranged attacks'.
Because Udeus would suddenly jut out the 'bone roots' he had buried underground, forcing the attackers to reposition themselves.
It should be noted that the hardness of these 'skeletal tree roots' is the same as that of Udeos's own black skeleton... It should be said that since it is part of Udeos's body, it is normal that they are of the same hardness.
In short, once pierced by these inverted stakes, even the top-tier armor worn by 'Level 1 adventurers' would be instantly destroyed.
Unfortunately, because the 'skeleton tree roots' are all buried underground, there isn't even a 'trajectory' for a traditionally flying long-range attack, making it very difficult to predict when it will launch or in which area it will do so...
Therefore, even for a large-scale team to attack Udayus, it was an extremely difficult task.
Now that Ais is going to fight Udeos alone, it means that the attack pressure that would have been shared by many teammates will all be focused on her alone.
In his field of vision was a black skeletal giant that could easily crush him to death with a single blow.
Beneath their feet lay a hidden 'mountain of swords' trap. They had to constantly pay attention to the ground's movements, trying to discern whether the subtle tremors were caused by Udeus's punches or by the collapse of the stakes below.
She had far too many things to consider.
