Miss Dragon, the BOSS, will not be captured.

I should have fed this stupid dog before letting it run.

"Everyone, throw the food quickly, the farther away from the gate the better!"

Seeing that it was effective, the bearded man instructed everyone to use the food as projectiles and throw it as far as possible.

The archers on the team would attach kebabs to their bowstrings and shoot, while the magic-based classes would use their staffs as bats to hit meatballs like balls.

The warriors also used their shield-bombing skills on the food, and for a moment, all kinds of food flew into the distance like rain.

The team members showed off their skills, using every method they could think of to throw the food far away. Since the food was made by the players, it wouldn't easily break even after being hit.

Fenrir was increasingly confused about what these people were doing, but her stomach had already started to rumble. Her sense of smell was more sensitive than that of humans, and the aromas were whetting her appetite.

"Eat, go eat!"

The bearded man pointed wildly at the pile of food in the distance. Once the giant wolf left, his team would be able to break through the gate and pass directly through here.

As Fenrir took its first step with its front paw, Estia gritted her teeth.

How did these players, who were seeing the boss for the first time, know Fenrir's weakness?

Was it really just pure luck?

Fenrir's walking quickly turned into running. She buried her head in the pile of food and began to feast. Human food was small to her, but there was so much of it that the mountain of food would keep her eating for a long time.

"Take this opportunity and attack the gate!"

The player team rushed into the boss's warning zone and began attacking the gate with all their might. Fenrir, who was supposed to attack them, was still eating and completely ignored them.

It was even wagging its tail because it was enjoying its meal.

Fenrir, as the first boss of the Abyss of the Dark Realm, is truly shameful!

Estella was furious. Should Fenrir be charged with dereliction of duty?

"Awoo!"

Fenrir suddenly looked up and barked at the sky. A rustling sound came from the bushes beside him, and then nearly eight hounds emerged from them!

Each hound is several meters tall and looks incredibly imposing.

The eight hounds charged directly at the rear of the player team, whose back row consisted of classes with low defense. The hounds moved through the enemy lines as if they were nothing, scattering the entire team.

"Holy crap! Where did this dog come from?!"

The sudden attack by the hounds threw the entire team into chaos. The bearded man thought that if they didn't fight the boss, the mechanism of summoning minions wouldn't be triggered.

Fenrir was still leisurely eating her food, but in reality, she had already made arrangements for the group of players.

With the support characters in the back row falling, this team won't last long.

"Everyone, attack the gate with all your might! If we can break through the gate, we can get through here!"

Now, their hope rests on the gate, which has only 20% health left. The surviving players are using every trick in the book, unleashing all their burst skills at the gate.

boom!

Finally, when the team of 50 players was reduced to only a dozen or so, the survivors, including the bearded man, showed joyful smiles. The gate's health bar was finally depleted, and they had won!

however……

"Holy crap! There's another door!?"

The bearded man's blood pressure skyrocketed.

"Yes, why is there another door?"

Estia, who was secretly observing, grinned mischievously. As the owner of the copy, she had some modification privileges and could easily make some changes.

So Estia changed all the gates guarded by the bosses to three, to increase the difficulty.

Section 11, Chapter 009: Methods of Survival

The boss battle came to an end as the last player was torn to pieces by the hounds.

The hounds howled as they departed, leaving behind a battlefield littered with severed limbs.

No other player teams came to Fenrir after that, which means that the players still cannot defeat the monsters outside in the short term.

Fenrir ate heartily, and Estia ended her stealth and quietly walked to her side.

"Dog!"

"Woof!"

Fenrir was startled, but after greeting Estia, he resumed enjoying the food left by the players.

"I misunderstood you before; it turns out you were prepared all along."

Estia had previously thought Fenrir was neglecting his duties because of food, but now she realized that the dog wasn't stupid. The reason it was eating so leisurely was because it had already planned out the players' fate.

Players thought that food would lower Fenrir's guard, but little did they know that Fenrir also lowered their guard, exposing the vulnerable backline classes to the hounds' charge range.

"I didn't realize you could use tactics so well. You've improved."

"What tactics?" Fenrir turned his head, his huge head full of questions. "Master, you must have misunderstood something. I didn't arrange those hunting dogs."

"what?"

"They smelled the aroma of food and wanted to eat it, but I yelled at them and drove them away, so they vented their anger on the group of adventurers."

"..."

Esther was speechless, staring at the silly dog ​​in front of her, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Actually, the silly dog ​​could have easily gone along with it, pretended to have everything under control, and won her praise.

I never expected that silly dog ​​would be so honest; its way of thinking is really simple.

Estia wanted to tell Fenrir not to eat food given by human players next time, but seeing how happily she was eating it... oh well, never mind.

"Doggy, I'm giving you a rule: whether you eat human food or not, you're not allowed to let other players break through here."

"Woof! Don't worry!"

To get through the area guarded by Fenrir, one needs to break through the defenses of three gates, each one more formidable than the last.

If the hounds don't come today, then when the players break through the first gate, Fenrir will immediately rush in and kill them, and will also attack the vulnerable back-row classes first.

After giving her instructions, Estia left. She wanted to take a bath and then go to sleep.

The rain had stopped during Fenrir's battle with the players.

As she passed by Anawen, Esther didn't intend to spoil her dream, but couldn't resist plucking another flower from her.

Sniff sniff~

Yes, besides its own floral fragrance, it also exudes a refreshing scent after a sunny day.

Although Esther is the master of all the monsters in the Abyss of the Dark Realm, the consequences of angering the good-natured Miss Anawen can be quite severe.

But every time I see the flowers on her clothes, I can't help but want to pluck them...

Estia tucked the flower into her hair, poked Miss Anawen's cheek with her finger, and then went to the nearest lake.

The Netherworld Dragon Abyss is vast, with many different terrains, and is inhabited by various types of monsters.

But there was no dragon.

Or rather, there are no dragons other than Estia.

Pfft!

Estia jumped into the water without any grace, splashing a large spray of water in the process.

At the same moment, the girl sinking in the deep sea suddenly regained her breath, and the darkness around her body was replaced by light.

"Success!"

My ears were filled with excited voices, followed by the sound of a defibrillator. The electrocardiogram, which had been a flat line, began to fluctuate.

The girl slowly opened her eyes, but the light in the emergency room made her close them again.

Hot tears streamed down her face. Why, why was she born to suffer such pain?

She wished she could just fall asleep and never wake up, but at the same time she knew that her mother would be anxiously waiting at the door of the emergency room every time.

So she had to live.

Outside the door, the mother was talking to the doctor, and miraculously, she could hear the conversation very clearly.

"Madam, your daughter's condition is very serious this time..."

"Please tell me what to do, I want to get treatment no matter the cost!"

"It's not about the money. Well, let me be frank. Your daughter's life is already in dire need of saving, but there is a way to extend her life by a few more days."

"What method?"

"Let her be connected to the virtual reality device 24 hours a day, but be careful, it's using special equipment that our hospital has just started using."

The doctor explained that virtual reality equipment was the only way to prolong Ye Qingxian's life. When her mind was connected to the virtual world, Ye Qingxian's body would enter a low-activity state, similar to that of a vegetable.

The benefit of doing this is to slow down the progression of the disease. Although we still don’t know what disease she has, as long as she is alive, we can believe in miracles. Maybe a cure can be found during this time?

"But madam, you must understand that even with virtual reality equipment, her life cannot be extended for much longer."

"I know, but as long as my child can enjoy one more day of life, that's enough..."

"Then please sign the guarantee. Please be mentally prepared."

The emergency room door opened, and Ye Qingxian could hear her mother approaching.

"Mother……"

"Don't cry, child, I'm here."

Ye Qingxian felt a warm touch; her mother was bending down and hugging her.

"In order to save your life, the doctor just said..."

"I heard everything."

Ye Qingxian had no choice. She didn't want to be separated from her mother by death. Even if she stayed in the game world, as long as her mother also entered the game using virtual reality equipment, then mother and daughter could meet again.
