Is there something wrong with playing Genshin Impact in the dungeon?

That... the black-haired youth with ten mithril rings on both hands.

In an instant...

"Solomon?"

The girl (goddess) with knee-length pale purple hair exclaimed in surprise, "How could he still be alive?"

Chapter 263 Ling Shu: Be a good stepping stone for me, villainous face

"Ah sneeze!"

Inside the 'Ruins Area' of the Old Town in the western part of Orario.

Originally, when the clock struck noon, Ling Shu planned to make a dashing entrance.

result……

"Who the hell is envious of my good looks now?"

A sneeze, and that interruption...

"That guy is here."

"Grab him quickly!"

"Haha, you idiot, that means our Soma clan has won..."

……

A group of oddballs had just entered the 'ruins area' when they spotted Ling Shu standing arrogantly atop a collapsed tower with his arms crossed.

In an instant, they all pounced on him with sinister smiles on their faces.

The winning rules for this 'war game'... for the Soma Familia, all they need to do is have any member directly touch the bodies of Ryouki, Bell, and Lily within the next three hours.

So right now...

"Fortunately, it's not like the 'failure' rule in 'Problem Children' where 'being seen means failure'."

"otherwise……"

Looking around, Ling Shu grinned mischievously. "I can't just 'go all out,' I have to 'go all out'."

next moment……

Let's play!

The ultra-short text was sung.

"!"

In an instant, a magic circle in the shape of the 'Celtic Trinity Knot' appeared beneath Ling Shu's feet, and he simultaneously raised his right foot and stomped down with all his might...

"Boom!"

The collapsed tower ruins were instantly shattered, and the swirling dust began to spread rapidly in all directions.

And it was precisely by taking advantage of this opportunity...

"Swish swish~"

Three identical figures began moving at high speed in three different directions.

For a time...

"I...you...this is Lv.3?"

Almost the instant Ling Shu delivered his first kick, a werewolf youth inside the 'Twilight Mansion' stared wide-eyed at the tower that suddenly crumbled.

That attack just now was almost as powerful as his Lv.4... no, it was the kicking power he had when he was about to reach Lv.5.

It is said that ever since becoming a 'Level 1 Adventurer', the werewolf youth named 'Bert Roca' has increasingly taken to putting his hands in his pockets and stomping the ground with one foot to drive away those small fry.

It's as if I'm always being possessed by some otherworldly counterpart who likes to laugh out loud, make exaggerated facial expressions, and play with vector graphics.

The side...

"Wow, Solomon, that's amazing."

Tiona's eyes lit up, "That was... a clone?"

Strictly speaking, it should be called 'phantom magic'.

The learned Riveria chimed in, explaining, "It creates an illusion that matches one's appearance with a very short incantation, without any physical form... but it's enough to deceive the adventurers in the Soma Familia."

Indeed, just as the 'mama-san' said...

"That guy can create clones?"

Inside the arena in the West District, all the 'lower-level adventurers' belonging to the Soma Familia were in a panic.

They were all stunned for a long while...

"Don't panic, the only difference is that the target we need to catch has changed from 'one' to 'three'."

"Yes, we have more than a hundred people. Even if the enemy's numbers increase tenfold, we will still have the advantage in numbers."

That's not wrong.

Moreover... it's not hard to see that the members of the Soma Familia never took Bell and Lily seriously from the very beginning.

It was probably Chanis who gave the order; the general idea was that "as long as we capture Dongfang Lingshu, we'll have victory in our grasp."

and also……

"It's just 'hide-and-seek,' it won't be too dangerous."

"All you need to do is try your best to catch the other side."

This was what Chanis instructed his team members before the start of this 'war game'.

Without a doubt, after Ling Shu deliberately made a scene at the entrance of the 'Abundant Mistress' tavern that morning, saying he was going to 'make a big fuss,' anyone who wasn't stupid should have known that he wouldn't play by the rules.

And yet Chanis made such an arrangement... It can only be said that he completely treated the members of the group as his pawns.

"You will pay the price for your arrogance, Captain Frigga of the Familia~"

The man with the center-parted hair and glasses did not act immediately.

He stood steadily at the very edge of the ruins area, not in a hurry to participate in this game of hide-and-seek.

So much so that he didn't even notice...

Your mark (scar) belongs to me, and my mark (scar) still belongs to me.

Lily, who is proficient in 'transformation magic', was actually hiding not far from where Chanis was.

She had originally planned to forfeit the match by simply 'going out of bounds' as Ling Shu had arranged.

As a result, the idiot didn't check his surroundings at all, and Lily secretly used the 'Cinderella' transformation effect to disguise herself immediately.

As for that rabbit boy...

"Grab that guy."

"Don't run."

……

"Ahhh~~ I'm so sorry!"

Question: In terms of adventurer qualities alone, what is Bell's greatest strength in the early stages?

A: Escape.

Yes, this is someone who, even when he was just starting out and hadn't even awakened the 'One Heart' skill, could actually fight the Minotaur for several minutes straight.

Now, with Razer's protection, Bell has been able to delve into the 'seventh floor' of the dungeon in just three days.

Furthermore, Lei Ze generally does not take the initiative to act because he receives orders from Ling Shu.

It was entirely about training Belle and Lily.

Such a superior growth environment, coupled with Bell's terrifying growth rate, is quite a contrast to the numerous Level 1 members within the Soma Familia...

Yeah, he's a cheater too.

The current situation is that even though Bell completely follows Ling Shu's arrangements and only moves around on the edge of the 'ruins area', he has unintentionally outmaneuvered a group of 'lower-level adventurers' belonging to the Soma Familia.

At once……

"Little Bell, your 'Agility' stat should increase quite a bit today, right?"

This was the thought that Seele (Frigga) was secretly thinking as she smiled with narrowed eyes, far away from the scene.

And it was at this very moment...

"Boom!"

In the center of the 'ruins area', the 'big commotion' that Ling Shu had foreseen had arrived!

Initially, it was many members of the Soma Familia who witnessed the ghostly fireball spell (the sun) at the gate of their own residence.

When it fired, even though Ling Shu didn't compress or concentrate its power, the surging heat wave still overturned a bunch of lower-level adventurers.

Even more deadly is...

The forest skies that have long since vanished, the endless night sky studded with countless stars...

As they sped along, Ling Shu's next spell had already begun its incantation.

[Respond to my foolish voice, and grant me once more the protection of starlight. To you who have forsaken me, I offer light and mercy...]

The Soma Familia is not entirely made up of cowards. They are adventurers who have been struggling in the dungeons for many years. Even if most of them do not achieve their own 'great deeds', at least they are willing to take risks.

Or one could say: they've gone mad in their quest to obtain the divine wine brewed by their own god.

It is this madness of the outcasts...

"If this 'war game' fails, you will never be able to drink the divine wine brewed by Lord Soma again."

"Because Lord Soma is very likely to be sent back to the heavens."

It was still Chanis's instigation and pre-war declaration that drove most of the 'pawns' in his eyes to hysteria.

And this...
