"It's the 'Lemton Serpent'!!!"

"Run! Scatter! Scatter now!!!"

In the chaos, five enormous creatures, each occupying most of one side of the field of vision, began to wreak havoc in the dungeon.

The Lambton Serpent is a colossal monster that was originally supposed to appear on the 37th floor.

Its enormous size is comparable to... or even surpasses that of the floor master, and with this advantage, it can also freely travel between multiple floors of the underground city by combining it with its digging ability.

Wherever they pass, they usually leave behind huge vertical gaps that resemble 'sinkholes'.

Therefore, the Great Serpent of Lambton is also known as the Serpent Well by adventurers who are able to set foot in the 'lower levels'.

It is often the culprit behind large-scale collapses of underground cities.

Countless adventurers have died in this sudden accident.

Some were simply thrown to their deaths, while others, by sheer luck, survived and fought to the last moment with their severely wounded bodies, only to be torn to shreds by monsters from lower levels...

"Didn't the Lambton Serpent only ever reach the '29th floor'? How could it be now..."

"Is this strange? This is an underground city."

"Help! Save them!!!"

Chapter 56 Snake, I'm inside your belly~

The gray-white rock walls gradually become dimmer in the surrounding light.

In this desolate environment, an enormous snake of ridiculously large size lay coiled in a corner.

Sudden……

"Jing—"

"!"

The giant snake suddenly opened its eyes, its dark golden vertical pupils shrinking sharply.

It then started acting wildly and causing a ruckus.

Interspersed with faint whispers and the long, hissing roar of the giant snake echoed throughout the entire floor.

Judging from the outside, it (this colossal monster) seems to have ingested something it shouldn't have, and is enduring pain that only Princess Iron Fan could understand.

And then...

"Bang~"

This pain did not last long. After about several tens of seconds, a series of emerald green spikes (wind element spears) suddenly 'grew' from the inside of a section of the giant snake's body. Its massive body then crashed to the ground and died completely.

Subsequently, starting with the scales on its body surface, the phenomenon of ash decomposition gradually began to appear.

It was at this time...

"Cut——"

"Pfft~" x2

Two azure arcs of light appeared in a cross shape on the snake's belly, instantly forming an 'X'-shaped wound.

next moment……

"Crack crack crack~"

A sound that makes your teeth ache comes from inside.

You can see that at the wound on the snake's belly, the flesh and tissue are constantly writhing, as if something is trying to crawl out from inside.

at last……

"Whoo~"

Ling Shu (Kong), who was covered by a 'cat shield', and the elf girl he was holding in his arms in a princess carry, regained their freedom from the giant snake's body.

At this point, upon closer inspection, you'll find that the surface of the 'Cat Shield' is covered with cracks.

Furthermore, the surrounding area was constantly filled with the hissing sound of strong acid corrosion.

Those dark liquids, once dripped onto the ground, would smoke and melt, creating holes.

Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the elven girl, who had fallen into a coma, was covered in wounds.

It is generally no different from a severe burn condition.

Unsurprisingly, some of their clothes were also corroded away.

can only say……

"Thankfully, Lefia is Lv.3 and also has the ability to develop 'abnormal resistance'."

"Otherwise, this little girl would have melted right into the monster's stomach."

Ling Shu (Kong) carried Leifia, who was still unconscious, and took a few steps.

Immediately, using the power of wind element, he dispersed all the strong acid digestive fluid belonging to the 'Lymton Serpent' in the surrounding area.

"Crackling sound~"

The cat shield shattered.

Only then did he have a moment to look around...

"So, where is this?"

Ling Shu (Kong) frowned slightly.

A few minutes ago, the expedition team encountered an 'abnormal situation' on the 28th floor and was attacked by five 'Lymton Serpents' that emerged from the deeper areas.

When the surrounding terrain began to collapse on a large scale, Ling Shu (Kong)'s judgment at the time was correct... He and Ying acted at the same time and directly rescued the acquaintances with the lowest survival rate nearby.

Among them, the first and second level adventurers (Lv.4 and above) are not even worth his and her concern.

However, Lefia, whose mental fortitude was not yet fully developed, and another rabbit-person girl named 'Rakta', were both only at Lv.3.

If they were swept to a lower level alone, not to mention whether they would be killed by more powerful monsters, the initial fall alone would be enough to cause them serious trouble.

You should know that in the future of the current world's original trajectory, even after a certain red-eyed rabbit boy reached Lv.4, he didn't dare to jump down from the 'Giant Waterfall' on the 25th floor, because he estimated that he would definitely fall to his death.

However, characters like Tiona, Tione, and Bert at level 5, or even Grace at level 6, can jump directly from level 52 to level 58 without any difficulty.

In particular, Mr. Grace, having experienced so many 'collapse incidents' in the past, has even developed a set of experiences for 'estimating depth and distance based on the time of fall'.

Far away.

In short, when Ling Shu (Kong) rescued Lefia, he originally planned to use the 'Wind Wings' for an emergency landing.

Falling is no big deal for travelers who have been leaping and bounding across the continent of Teyvat.

In fact, Ying used the same method to successfully rescue the rabbit-woman girl Lakta.

Ke Lingshu (Kong) here...

"During the forced landing, he was targeted by the giant serpent Lambton and swallowed whole, with an elven girl by his side... Tsk, that's something else."

Honestly, he really doesn't want to experience this kind of "treatment the same as that of a local protagonist" firsthand.

Right now...

"The grayish-white rock walls, and those tall walls that curve slightly to one side all around... Damn!"

Ling Shu (Kong)'s face was grim. "Could this be...?"

******

At the same time, inside the '29th floor', which is even higher up.

[A vision appeared at night!!!]

The lightning was violent, and streaks of purple light descended from the sky, piercing through all the 'worms' that appeared in front of them.

At this point, Ying's side had formed a temporary team of six people.

Tiona, Ais, Lina, Elfi, and the rabbit-woman girl Lakta all gathered together, their gazes forming a circle around the perimeter.

With two Lv.5s present, plus Fischl, who is a Genshin Impact user, their defensive formation was maintained quite easily.

Not long after...

"Boom!"

As Fischl unleashed her 'Boom Boom Boom version of Night Illusion', landing the final blow from Oz's dive, the swarm of 'worms' in front was finally wiped out by the thunderstorm that was most effective against them.

Among the group, Linne (Lv.2), Elfi (Lv.3), and Lakta (Lv.3) all breathed a sigh of relief.

Unfortunately, even as adventurers, girls still have some psychological aversion to this type of monster.

Of course, when the time comes to act, they won't hesitate.

But even Tiona would be grateful to be able to avoid those disgusting things.

"This has been a huge help."

Wearing a blue-gray mage's robe and with her hair in a side ponytail, Elfi looked at the 'horrific scene' of the large group of monsters turning to ash in front of her and couldn't help but exclaim, "So many poisonous maggots, we can easily take care of them all."

She then looked at Fischl, who was standing to the side with a bow...

"As expected of the highest-level summoning magic that even Lady Riveria praised so highly, its combat power as a high-level fairy-like life form is truly amazing."

"Elfi, that's rather rude of you."

Linne whispered a correction: "Lady Riveria emphasized last night that Miss Fischl is not just a summoned creature; strictly speaking, she is also a respectable adventurer."

"Your statement just now was very ambiguous."

Upon hearing this…

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Elfi quickly apologized to Fischl, "I didn't mean that, I misspoke, I'm so sorry..."

She had already bowed deeply.

"The noble are destined to be lonely, and a few words of nonsense are not worth mentioning."

Oz: "Uh, what Miss means is—she forgave you and didn't mind."
