"Let me cut you into eight pieces first."

Roland slowly raised his head and raised his hand, his eyes becoming calm and indifferent.

The elf mark on the back of his hand suddenly lit up, allowing the light particles to gather into a dazzling human figure.

A petite, mysterious, and noble girl, like a gem, appeared from the light and stretched out her hand to Roland.

"This is……"

"——Fairy essence."

Even though she had seen the holy sword transformed by Esther, seeing the battle between the hero and the fairy with her own eyes still made Livilia feel dazed.

Finn, Gareth, Tiona and others were speechless. Even Burt, who had been acting impatient, was stunned.

"Roar--!"

Goliath roared, swung his huge hand fiercely, and slapped Roland angrily.

As the most outstanding power attribute of Goliath, this attack that matches the size of the body makes loud noises burst out one after another. The terrifying hurricane swoops down along with the shadows that are constantly cast, wrapped in violent sounds, and rolls up in a circle There were white and dazzling ripples, and in an instant, all directions of Roland's escape were submerged by the giant's palm.

But Roland had no intention of escaping. He just looked at the sharp wind that was pouring down like a blade. His cold voice did not waver in the slightest. He held Esther's hand and chanted the spell of the contract.

"—Cold Queen of Steel, holy sword that slays demons and monsters! Transform yourself into a sword of steel and grant me divine power."

Esther's figure slowly faded away in the light, while Roland tightly grasped the deepest beam of light.

Then, just before the violent force that was about to crush all the level 5 adventurers arrived, a light darker than darkness flashed mercilessly, like the breath of a dragon.

The next moment, a brilliant glow continued to rise upwards, dispelling the shadow brought by the palm and piercing straight into the sky, like a rising blazing sun.

In the brilliant golden light, in the roar that echoed in all directions, the sound of steel and iron piercing through flesh and tearing cloth continued to be heard.

Goliath's slapping hand had broken neatly off his shoulder, flew into the sky above the cave, and finally slammed heavily on the ground.

Goliath's skin, which looked like it couldn't even be broken by ordinary weapons, and his tough and strong muscles, were as fragile as thin paper in front of the holy sword that was powerful enough to kill the devil.

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

Goliath's dark pupils could not help but flash a little red, and his eyeballs slowly bulged out, expressing his inner anger. He had a low IQ and no tactics even after being strengthened. His ferocity was fully aroused, and he just hunched over, tightening all his strength in his legs, and then stomped down with his burly thighs, trying to crush this smaller man who was much smaller than him to death.

But Roland simply raised the holy sword in his hand again in the whistling wind. With the continuous infusion of magic power, the light on Esther's sword continued to flicker.

"boom--!"

Roland crushed the ground and released his magic power wantonly. An indescribable storm suddenly arose, mixed with broken boulders and swirling sand and dust.

The horrifying aftermath continued to spread behind him like a gushing flame, bursting in all directions with a sharp shockwave.

In a moment shorter than the blink of an eye, Roland had stepped on the air and arrived in front of Goliath, looking down at the giant who was still maintaining his previous movements and whose pupils had just turned.

Then, he turned his wrist and swung the sword from top to bottom towards the sky!

Just this action stirred up a huge wave of air, and a spiral of light flickered in his hand. A shrill and high-pitched scream suddenly sounded.

A sword light that penetrated the sky and the earth flashed out, and the Holy Sword of Steel cut off all obstacles that dared to stand in the way of the sword light. The aftermath of the wind pressure condensed into a solid, turning into a huge fan, blowing away and crushing everything around it.

"Zheng——!!!"

With a crisp tearing sound, the sword light, as powerful as a bamboo, chopped the huge Goliath into many pieces, and a blood curtain like a rain cloud continued to splash out.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!"

The giant had just stepped forward with his foot, causing the earth to crack, and all he could do was let out a scream before dying.

'Then, at the moment the light went out, his wailing stopped abruptly.

Then, Goliath's flesh, which was still spewing blood, turned into ashes amid explosions and slowly floated to the ground. After his body disappeared, the magic stone that was as tall as a person also fell heavily to the ground as a reward for the winner.

The whole audience suddenly fell silent.

Everyone in Loki's family was stunned as they watched Roland, who had wiped out the mutated floor master in such a short time, slowly lower the holy sword in his hand in the ashes.

Livilia, who was ready to rescue in dangerous situations, didn't even finish the chant.

"It only took one strike..."

"Can you jump onto Goliath's head without even using magic?"

Just like the rumors about defeating Ai Si, Roland still defeated the floor master in a relatively short time.

But the fact that really made Finn clench his fists, feel that his three views were overturned, and his mind began to become confused was that Roland's strength was far more than what he showed.

Even the stubborn Bert had to admit this, although his face was now turning blue and white and completely distorted.

"hero……"

For a moment, the only sound on the scene was Ais's whisper. She looked at Roland, the light in her eyes shining like stars.

Roland also gradually fell down, looking at the huge magic stone in front of him that was taller than himself. He did not feel complacent at all, but instead looked solemnly at the thing that fell behind the magic stone.

Pieces of purple crystals as turbid as glass fell to the ground and broke into tiny pieces.

"Didn't disappear?"

In the dungeon, the monsters that are killed will turn into ashes and dissipate. When they return, they will not drop anything other than magic stones and materials.

But the Goliath in front of him broke this rule. Although his body had disappeared, the purple crystals attached to his joints that once gave him strength were still preserved intact.

And this thing obviously does not fall into the category of dropped items.

Roland picked up a piece from the ground and carefully felt the chaotic power in it.

Although it is very weak, it is indeed the power transformed from the soul. The dungeon does not seem to have much knowledge of this unconventional technology, and it will not leave any loopholes that violate the laws of operation.

In other words, these purple crystals...

"Is it the product of Qi Ling?"

Roland hesitated for a moment, but before he could take a closer look, the surrounding purple crystals instantly turned into beautiful, glittering dust and dissipated with the wind.

The one in his hand was no exception, and a lot of dust brushed directly over his body. However, this scene made Roland, who was not even moved at all when facing Goliath, a little distracted.

Because he realized one thing.

Just when the dust was scattered, the magical power of a talisman in his body was instinctively activated.

At this moment, in Roland's eyes, the mark of the noble horse continued to light up, expelling all ominous external forces.

Chapter 130 Aisi's Request

The horse spell is one of the first batch of powers that Roland possesses.

In terms of the performance of the ability, although it looks very similar to healing and its performance is similar to Crazy Diamond, this ability is much stronger in both range and strength.

The essence of this divine power is to dispel external forces within the user's body.

Things like injuries, damage, and even curses can be cleared, and its activation itself means a lot of things.

"Is this crystal stone still infectious?"

The crystal dust that looks extremely beautiful is actually a deadly poison. This ironic contrast is very much in the style of Qi Ling.

Roland raised Esther in his hand, and the holy light spread out, destroying all the dust around.

Although the Qi Ling is still nowhere to be found, its derivatives produced through the dungeon have revealed many things to Roland.

As the demon-killing holy sword, Esther also has the power to remove spells and devour curses. As long as it is related to these two aspects, she cannot have no reaction at all. Even as an external object, her protection should be activated before the horse spell.

Therefore, Roland also had some guesses about the true identity of the purple crystal.

"A product that is more technological..."

Just as Roland was lost in thought, a charming voice sounded from behind him.

"Amazing!"

Tiona's voice rang out from afar. She shouted with excitement and rushed towards Roland with the momentum of a raging wave, but the other figure was even more powerful than her.

Aisi, who had gorgeous hair like a fairy, came to Roland with light and swift steps. Her clear eyes stared at Roland, who was unharmed, and expressed her concern in her unique way.

"Oh, Ais, so cunning!"

Tiona, who arrived a step later than Esther, also squeezed in beside Roland generously, looking at Roland and Esther in his hand with curiosity.

"Is this the weapon transformed by the immortal spirit? It's really beautiful, and much more powerful than those magic swords. Roland, what was that move just now..."

With every word, Tiona and Roland got closer. In the end, the girl had taken it upon herself to hug Roland's empty arm.

Luckily, Finn and the others came over as well.

"Tiona, calm down, you've crossed the line."

Tiona's cheeks puffed up when she heard Livilia's warning, but she didn't dare to disobey Livilia, who was usually nicknamed "Mom" by the clan, and reluctantly let go of her hand.

"It doesn't matter. There's no need to hide Esther's power anyway."

Roland didn't care. Although it was taboo to snoop on the adventurer's abilities, he could feel that the other party was full of goodwill. Tiona was just doing this because of her straightforward personality and wanting to know more about the person she liked. What's more, Esther's abilities were difficult to conceal. If Roland didn't care about magic, it wouldn't be difficult for him to release the sword light that could destroy the city.

"That's true. No matter what kind of equipment you have, you can't be hostile to the immortals... But, it's better to be cautious. In addition to those who admire heroes, there are also many people in this dungeon who want to bring heroes down from the altar."

Looking at Roland who was so casual, Finn didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he suppressed all the thoughts in his mind and gave a reminder.

"is it?"

Roland raised his eyebrows, looking unconcerned, and asked another question.

"Speaking of which, the purple crystals on the Goliath just now, have you seen anything similar before when you were in the deep?"

"That's exactly what I was saying... I haven't seen it on monsters... But when I returned from the last expedition, I saw similar purple crystals on an injured adventurer. But it wasn't as serious, and the area covered was much smaller. Compared to Goliath, the color of the crystals was also much darker and more turbid. At the time, I thought it was a strange injury caused by some kind of drug or magic. Now it seems that the omen of the change in the dungeon may have appeared a long time ago."

"This news is really hard to laugh at. It seems that this thing is contagious, and there is no need to say more."

"Well, we will deal with it carefully from now on. I just don't know if this will happen to the subsequent floor masters and monsters. It seems that we have to report to the guild quickly. Something serious must have happened in the deep."

Unexpectedly, an expedition to investigate anomalies suddenly turned into a harbinger of a crisis that was difficult to handle, which made Finn's face, which was always smiling, become worried.

But as the team leader, he quickly calmed down and looked at the magic stone behind Roland.

"What are you going to do with that thing next? The magic stones dropped by the floor master are already a considerable fortune. Do you plan to drag it back to the guild to deal with it directly, or go to the eighteenth floor with us first? Although it will be cheaper there than in the guild, it will be much more convenient."

"Let's go to the eighteenth floor first. I'm also a little curious about the current situation on the safe floor... As for this thing, let's put it aside for now."

Roland waved his hand, causing the dark shadow to spread to the bottom of the magic stone, and in a wave of fluctuations, it completely swallowed it up.

"This is……"

Compared to Roland's strength, the hesitation on Finn's face was more obvious when he saw this magic similar to a storage space, but he finally said nothing and ignored it with a smile.

"Then let's prepare to enter the eighteenth floor."

-

After passing through the inclined cave, the tense faces of the members of Loki's family finally relaxed, and even core members such as Tiona breathed a sigh of relief.

"We're here, this is the secure floor."

In this terrifying dungeon, in addition to special floors where floor masters will appear, there are also so-called safe floors where monsters will not be automatically spawned.

But this kind of safety is not absolute. After all, there is still the possibility of monsters breaking in from other floors.

But even so, it is an indispensable part of Orario's expedition.

The deeper you go, the more intricate the dungeon and the maze become. When you reach a deeper level, the area of ​​one floor may exceed that of the entire Orario, and it will take a lot of time just to explore.

Without these safe floors to restore physical strength, relax the mind, and replenish some necessary supplies, even the strongest person would not be able to hold on alone.

Therefore, the guild originally planned to create a base on the safe floor, but the high cost caused by the occasional monster attacks caused the plan to be shelved.

After all, at this level, at least level 2 adventurers are needed for security and maintenance. In addition, the transportation of supplies from the surface to here is too luxurious even for a guild that makes a fortune every day.

However, their plan was not completely wasted. Based on the prototype left by the guild, the adventurers spontaneously formed a temporary town. There was no clear order or law. In addition, its special geographical location as the first trading and leisure center in the dungeon made the consumption here very expensive.

Whether it is basic food or weapons, they are far superior to those on the ground. It is an exaggeration to describe it as a black market, but for this reason, there are also quite a lot of contraband sold here.

While thinking about this information, Roland did not take a step towards the town on the eighteenth floor, but looked at the amazing scenery in front of him.

There is neither a maze nor a wall here, only a rock wall above that looks like an upside-down bowl, inlaid with crystals and emitting a warm glow like the sun.

An ocean composed of crystals, this is the sky unique to the eighteenth floor.

"The sky here also changes brightness according to the time of day. The scenery is different in the morning, noon and night, so everyone has always regarded this place as a small world."

Seeing Roland's interested expression, Tiona explained enthusiastically.

"Yes, it's amazing."
