Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Subconsciously, Tetodaf instinctively used the skill "Holy Sound Feather" and looked back at the same time.

He wanted to know what was behind him that could make him so scared.

What caught his eyes was a writhing mass of pitch-black mud monster. Not only was it wriggling towards Tetodaf, but it also had fangs and claws, pouncing at him with its teeth and claws bared!

——(?!)

Tetodaf immediately retreated and activated the "Explosive Feather" attribute of "Holy Sound Feather".

No matter what this mud monster is, his way of dealing with it is definitely correct.

Sure enough, as Tetodaf expected, the mud monster crashed straight into the sacred feathers made of magic power, and then a violent explosion occurred immediately.

For a moment, the corridor rumbled and the strong vibration seemed to cause the building to collapse.

Fortunately, the construction quality of the Zhaoye Liuque stronghold has always been excellent. Even if Tetodaf acted so recklessly, the lake base was not destroyed because of his skills.

·

——(What the hell is that? Where did it come from?)

Tetodav frowned as he looked at the thick smoke produced by the explosion not far away.

Judging from its appearance alone, Tetodav deduced that the mud monster should not be too strong, at most at the second level. Such a low-level and uncontrollable stupid monster should have nothing to do with Shiiki Ruri, and this is not their style of action.

So, if it had nothing to do with Shiiki Ruri, then the guards at the base gate must have been careless, allowing the monster from the lake to slip in... But how could a monster of this caliber get all the way to the center of the base...? Were all the precautions along the way in vain?

The more Tetodav thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Then, at that moment, an unusual noise came from the thick smoke of the explosion...

9.273 - The Invincible "Enemy"

—(What’s that noise…?)

Tetodav dropped his relaxed stance and took a defensive stance with vigilance.

Just as he held his breath, concentrating on preparing for any emergency, a mournful low roar echoed from the smoke and dust of the explosion. Immediately afterwards, the mud monster that should have been blown to death suddenly rushed out from the smoke and dust, continuing to pounce towards Tetodaf!!!

——(This…! How is this possible?!)

Looking at the almost unharmed mud monster, Tetodaf knew that his previous judgment had been seriously wrong.

According to Tetodav's deduction, with the power of his previous move "Holy Sound Feathers: Exploding Feathers", and the fact that he "ate" all the damage head-on without any defense, even a third-level monster would not be able to escape unscathed.

However, this mud monster still looked full of energy, as if it had never been injured.

Could it be that this mud monster is actually a dangerous species above level four?

·

Soon, Tetodav's question was answered.

·

In the corridor, Tetodaf was retreating rapidly, while the mud monster was chasing him closely.

Under Tetodav's gaze, the mud monster began to gradually change its shape as it crawled rapidly.

I saw this mass of dark mud slowly stretching out "hands", then "feet", and gradually twisting into a human shape.

And its way of moving also changed from high-frequency wriggling to running on two legs, which made its body made of mud even more weird and terrifying.

Just as Tetodav was confused about what this mud monster was, a pair of wings made of dirty mud spread out on the back of the humanoid monster.

Looking at the familiar shape of this "monster" and its iconic pair of short, wide wings with white spots, a familiar figure emerged in Tetodaf's mind. This person... was the Magpie-winged man Magai who had been dead for many years.

·

——(No…this kind of coincidence…how is this possible…?!)

The mud monster that turned into a human form was somewhat similar to the dead magpie-winged man Magai, which made Tetodaf feel quite panic.

The person he had once killed now reappeared in this form, causing him to feel instinctive fear.

It's funny that a man like Tetodav, who does all kinds of evil, would actually be afraid of retribution... and when he was doing evil, he never felt that he was making a mistake.

Seeing that the mud humanoid monster was about to spread its wings and fly over, Tetodaf used the skill "Sound Barrier" in advance to block the road, and also used the skill of his boots "Feather Boots" to further speed up his retreat.

Such a hasty act of wasting magic power was not something that Tetodaf should have done, but he only wanted to get rid of the monster as soon as possible, and he had no time to think about what would happen next.

Taking advantage of the gap between them, Tetodaf immediately connected with the skill "Wings of Resonance". He vibrated his wings at a special frequency, creating a sound wave field around himself.

In this sonic field, not only can Tetodaff's own agility be enhanced, but the strength attribute of the mud humanoid monster can also be reduced, allowing Tetodaff to gain more advantages in close combat.

Then, Tetodaf brandished his weapon, the 『Phantom Sound Rapier』. As he injected magic power into the 『Phantom Sound Rapier』, a 『real illusion』 identical to himself was created. Then, according to Tetodaf's control, it rushed towards the mud monster that was hitting the sonic barrier.

"True Illusion" is not only identical to Tetodaf in appearance, but also possesses the same combat strength as the original body. In addition, when the True Illusion exists, Tetodaf himself is in an invisible and untouchable state of nothingness, which can be said to be an infallible god-level skill.

When he was nearly killed by the Snake Shadow Society in the Night Crying Mountains, Tetodaf relied on this trick to escape.

[Note: For details, see chapter 9.246 - Escape Plan]

Now, Tetodav had used this move, indirectly saying that he had been forced into a corner. If even this combination of skills couldn't kill the sludge monster, then his only option was to escape.

·

Inside the long corridor, the fearless real illusion flew over the eaves and walls, and in a flash it circled behind the mud monster, then seized the opponent's weakness and stabbed out a storm of combos in one breath.

The mud monster was unable to react in time and was stabbed repeatedly from behind. In the blink of an eye, several large holes were opened in it, and its body was shaky.

However, just when Tetodav thought that the monster was about to fall, the mud monster quickly returned to its original state like an inanimate object, and took the opportunity to seize Tetodav's real illusion and ruthlessly swallowed it into its "stomach".

Even though the real illusion struggled desperately, it was ultimately no match for this "invulnerable" monster. When Tetodaf saw this, he knew he had no chance of winning... This mud monster was naturally able to restrain Tetodaf's attack methods, and his compatibility with this monster was too poor.

——(Forget it, I don't need to fight it to the death, I'll leave it to the others in the organization to deal with.)

Tetodaf quickly retreated and prepared to run away. After the real clone was killed, the skill of the Phantom Sound Rapier would be automatically canceled, so Tetodaf's invisible and untouchable state would also disappear.

Given his current physical condition where most of his skills are on cooldown, let alone fighting this mud monster again, he would be in danger of his life even if he was touched by it.

As for this unkillable mud monster, Tetodaf felt that it could be handed over to the Night Hall Master "Phantom Flame" to deal with it. The fox-man grandmother's explosive fire magic was just right for dealing with this kind of monster.

However, just as Tetodav was about to take off at low altitude, he found that his feet had been entangled in the mud!

——(How is this possible?!)

Tetodav couldn't believe that a mere monster could have such wisdom and find its true body so quickly.

However, now is not the time to think about such problems. If Tetodaf does not find a way to escape, he will soon end up like the illusion!

——(Damn it!!!)

——(Spinning Sharp Sound Tornado!)

——(Jiu Yu explodes!)

In panic, Tetodaff used all the skills he could, but the tenacity of this mud monster was simply beyond common sense. No matter how much damage it suffered, it would cling tightly to Tetodaff's feet and would return to its original form in the blink of an eye after being attacked!

It’s over.

dying.

What should I do?

Why is this happening? !

At this time, Tetodav's heart was on the verge of collapse, and the fear of death made his spirit begin to fall apart.

Then, at this critical moment, a dark memory flashed through Tetoduff's mind, when he was a child, he almost lost his life.

9.274 - The "Truth" of Silt

Just as human babies cannot walk as soon as they are born, children of the Winged People race also need to reach a certain age before they can acquire the ability to fly.

As a member of the winged race, Tetodaff naturally could not escape this rule. Therefore, when the young Tetodaff grew little wings, he flew around happily, showing off his beautiful little wings to everyone he met.

After showing off in the village where he lived, little Tetodaf was still not satisfied, so he sneaked out of the village alone and ran through the forest to the next village to continue showing off.

However, on the way through the forest, the inexperienced little Turtleduff accidentally stepped into a swamp. When he realized that he could not get out, it was too late.

Little Tetodaff flapped his wings desperately, trying to fly out of the swamp, but no matter how hard he tried, his heavy body could not fly, and the speed at which he sank into the swamp did not slow down.

The swamp that constantly devours his body becomes the embodiment of fear.

The painful memories of that time are still etched in Tetoduff's mind to this day.

At this moment, Tetodaf's situation of being entangled by the dark mud monster overlapped with his unbearable childhood memories.

He flapped his wings with all his might, trying to fly and shake off the mud monster. However, the mud monster showed a stronger strength than him. Not only did it hold him back and prevent him from taking off, it was also eating away at his feet bit by bit...!

What should I do?

What should I do to survive?!

Influenced by the psychological trauma of his childhood, the almost crazy Tetodav was unable to think normally at this time.

In a panic, he thought of cutting off his own legs to escape from the mud monster. As for the price of doing so, his will to survive had made him selectively ignore it.

"Ahhhh...!"

Tetodaf shouted and swung the Phantom Sound Rapier towards his feet, but before he could cut his feet, the black mud extending from the mud monster had already entangled his hands, making his plan to cut off his feet aborted.

At this point, Tetodav had no other options.

Under extreme fear, the spirit of the chief hall master of Zhaoye Liuque finally collapsed.

When Tetodav realized that he was about to die, he instinctively shouted the same words as when he was a child... As for face, he had long forgotten it.

"Help, help! Someone, someone please save me!!!"

Tetodav yelled hysterically, and there was even a hint of crying in his voice as he cried for help.

But this time, he was not as lucky as he was when he was a child.

No adult would hear the sound and come to rescue him.

What greeted him was only the endless darkness inside the mud monster's body.

·

·

Inside the lakeside stronghold, in the long corridor next to the inner courtyard square.

Shiiki Ruri, who was lying on the ground and unable to move, was staring at the Dove-Winged Man Tetodaf not far away with a puzzled look.

It had been a while since Tetodav suddenly fell to the ground, screaming and struggling. Shiiki Ruri was puzzled and bewildered.

Time goes back to three or five minutes ago, when Shiiki Ruri had just fallen to the ground and watched the "White Jade Flute Dagger·Moon Shadow Dragon Roar" break in front of her.

Tetodav's precise dart destroyed Shiiki Ruri's last hope of counterattack. After there was no possibility of reversal, the only thought left in Shiiki Ruri's mind was to end her life as soon as possible to avoid being caught and tortured by Tetodav.

Therefore, Shiiki Ruri no longer cared about Tetodaf's actions. What she had to do now was to end her life with the white jade flute fragments in front of her before Tetodaf made her powerless.

"Fortunately", even with such an overwhelming advantage, Tetodav still chose to go around to deal with Shiiki Ruri, which gave Shiiki Ruri time to crawl forward with both hands to pick up the fragments of the white jade flute.

But at this moment, something strange happened.

Shiiki Ruri clearly saw that the black viscous liquid flowing out of the white jade flute evaporated and disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye, just like boiling water. Then, within a few seconds, a strange sound came from behind Shiiki Ruri.

Influenced by curiosity, Shiiki Ruri did not commit suicide immediately, but turned back to see what was going on.

What caught her eye was Tetodav injecting a syringe into the wall, with a smug smile on his face as he did so.

Seeing this scene, Shiiki Ruri was confused. What was Tetodaf trying to do?

However, even more outrageous things are yet to come.

After completing the injection, Tetodaf suddenly used his skill "Holy Sound Feathers" on the empty air, and then frantically detonated all the magic feathers, almost collapsing the passage.

Afterwards, Tetodav did not stop and continued to release various skills, as if he was fighting against some invisible powerful enemy.

Shiiki Ruri didn't know why Tetodaf suddenly became nervous, but she knew that she shouldn't seek death for the time being.

Just like that, under the gaze of Shiiki Ruri, Tetodav fought fiercely with the air for two or three minutes, fighting and retreating, until finally, he seemed to be defeated, standing there with his whole body twisted in pain, shaking uncontrollably.

Even Tetodav shouted in a fragile voice that Shiiki Ruri had never heard before, calling for someone to save him.

Shiiki Ruri knew that Tetodav was definitely not acting to tease her. With the absolute lead he had just had, there was no need for him to act crazy and stupid for no reason.

Since Tetodav is not acting, there is only one answer to the current situation: without Shiiki Ruri and Tetodav noticing, someone successfully created an illusion for Tetodav, making him deeply trapped in it and unable to return to the real world.

——(…Who did this?)

Shiiki Ruri looked around nervously, but found nothing.
