In the huge cave room, the ground suddenly cracked like broken glass, causing cracks to spread around.
Soon after, the cracks gradually swelled, the soil rolled around, the rocks were broken, and sand and dust filled the air.
A pitch-black giant broke through the ground, shaking away the rocks and sand stuck on the huge body. While letting the earth and rocks roll down, the cave room shook.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa-!"
A roar that sounded both like a cry and a howl resounded from the mouth of the huge monster that burst out of the ground, turning into waves of sound that swept in all directions.
The monster looks like a gigantic skeleton, its body is pitch-black, and there are sharp spines protruding from every corner of the skeleton. The spines shine with a strange and dangerous sharp luster, making people fearful.
Its lower body is still buried under the ground, but the part above the bone plate alone is already nearly ten meters tall. Two devil-like horns have grown out of its head, and there are vermilion eyes deep in the huge eye sockets.
The strange fire swayed and penetrated people.
In the center of such a huge monster, in the chest cavity, an unusually large magic stone is embedded there like a heart, protected by thick sternum and ribs.
This is——
"Super large skeleton monster——Udaios!"
The floor master of the 37th floor was born with great fanfare right in front of Li Ge's eyes.
And without any surprise, Aisi, who was standing in the middle of the cave room with her back to the entrance passage, immediately caught the attention of the floor master.
"boom!"
With a roar, the huge skeletal monster swept out its thick skeletal arms, knocking away Ais who was standing there.
"————!"
Seeing this scene, the tense string in Li Ge's heart broke smoothly. He reached out his hand without hesitation and reached for one of the two swords worn at his waist.
The opponent was the floor master on the 37th floor, a super-large species with a classification level of Lv. 6. Li Ge almost subconsciously stretched his hand to the Sword of the Fool placed under the Hermit Sword, preparing to use this powerful weapon.
A first-level weapon ranked among the top three in Orario.
However, before Li Ge could draw his sword, a voice stopped him.
"don't want!"
The girl's cry caused Li Ge to freeze.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ge saw Ais, who was knocked away by Udaios's blow, standing up unsteadily from under the cracked wall.
"Don't take action!"
Ais stared at Li Ge, her transparent golden eyes showing intense emotions rarely seen before.
That is decisive.
That is determination.
Being stared at by Aisi with such eyes, Li Ge couldn't help but stop his hand reaching for the Sword of Fool.
"[Wake up (Tempest)]!"
At the same time, Ais chanted her own exclusive magic chant loudly, activated the extraordinary power of wind, and was enveloped by the violent wind.
After activating the magic of [Wind Spirit Rush], Ais finally started running.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa-!"
The huge skeletal monster also roared again, swung its skeletal arm, stirred up strong wind and sand waves, and swept towards Ais with great force.
Ais seemed to want to dodge and jumped slightly while riding the wind.
However, just when Ais was about to jump up, her body stiffened unnaturally.
This stalemate is undoubtedly fatal.
"boom!"
The huge bone arm hit Aisi hard, sending Aisi flying out again and hitting the wall at the other end of the cave, smashing the wall into pieces.
"Ais!"
Li Ge couldn't help shouting.
Aisi didn't reply, but stood up tenaciously and rushed towards Udaios again.
Udaios waved his giant arms again and again, and the sound was still huge and the movement was still terrifying. The roar and vibration never stopped from the beginning to the end, and they kept appearing in this huge cave room.
From this astonishing momentum and movement, it can be seen that this floor master, like the other floor masters, has terrifying powers that are generally consistent with super-large species.
Under such power, the cave was quickly ravaged and destroyed. Not only did the ground become pitted, but the surrounding walls were also covered with cracks and holes. The rubble flew in all directions like bullets, forcing Li Gedu to carry out
Dodged several times.
Fortunately, although Udaios's strength is astonishing, it also has a common weakness among super-large species - its movements are relatively slow.
Although it is still very threatening, with Aisi's speed, she should not be easily hit if she is prepared.
However, this is not the case.
Under Udaios' indiscriminate destruction and ravage, although Ais struggled to avoid it, she was still hit again and again. Her body was blown away like a cannonball, either hitting the wall or hitting the ground.
, the collision caused sand and dust to fly everywhere, and gravel flew, making it look extremely bleak.
After being hit so many times, even with the wind of [Wind Spirit Speedy] protecting her, Ais began to become scarred.
"how so?"
Li Ge was shocked.
Why is Ais getting hit again and again?
With her speed, she shouldn't be able to dodge Udaios' attack!
This puzzlement lasted until Li Ge discovered that Aisi's movements were always unnaturally stiff, and he finally got the answer.
"Could it be that Aisi, like me, has endured a heavy load due to the side effects of [Wind Spirit Speedy], and her whole body is aching?"
After getting this answer, Li Ge finally understood why he even used [Wind Spirit Rush], but failed to catch up with Ais in advance and let Ais reach the 37th floor smoothly.
Probably because, like Li Ge, Aisi was using [Wind Spirit Speed] to rush on her way.
This seems to be a rather stupid approach.
After all, Aiz's target is the floor master of the 37th floor, Udaios, whose classification level is Lv.6.
To fight such a monster, logically speaking, you should avoid fighting as much as possible before reaching the 37th floor, save your physical strength, save your mental energy, and put yourself in a safe state before taking on the challenge.
However, Ais used the magic of [Wind Spirit Rush] in advance in order to rush on her way. Not only did she consume most of her mental energy, but she even suffered side effects on her body. In this state, facing the floor owner who had a higher classification level than her, she was simply hurting herself.
Seeking death.
But Li Ge can still think of it, this should be a helpless move.
If you want to reach the 37th floor, let alone all the obstacles you may encounter on the way. Just talk about the time. If you don't spend about two or three days, you can't reach this floor at all.
As for Aisi, she entered the underground city this time in a state of poverty. She did not bring enough supplies, nor did she bring enough food and supplies. In this way, she would have to travel two or three days in the underground city, even if she arrived by then.
On the 37th floor, if you encounter Udaios, what strength and stamina will you have to fight?
Instead of being unable to fight when the time comes, Ais would rather suffer some side effects and some mental loss, so that she would at least still be able to fight.
Coupled with the urgency of her mood, Ais finally decided to use [Wind Spirit Speed] to rush on her way, which made Li Ge unable to catch up with her in advance. She successfully reached the 37th floor before Li Ge.
And the result was this. Although she successfully reached the 37th floor in advance and faced off against Udaios, Aisi's condition was not good, so she was crushed by Udaios without any surprise during the battle.
"boom!"
The sweep of the giant arm hit Ais once again, knocking Ais into the air and falling to the ground. She rolled a long distance before stopping.
"choke!"
Li Ge was no longer prepared to look any further and directly drew out the Sword of Fool.
"Don't come here...!"
The sound mixed with some pain still stopped Li Ge, and at the same time, Aisi stood up unsteadily.
This time, Li Ge did not intend to listen to Aisi's request.
However, the next second, Aisi's voice came over, causing Derig's face to freeze, and the steps he was about to take also froze.
"Please..."
Aisi's whisper shook Rige more than he imagined.
Not for anything else, just because that Ace Wallenstein was pleading to him in an unprecedentedly fragile tone.
This plea made it impossible for Li Ge to take steps at any time.
"You're going to die!"
Li Ge could only take a deep breath and speak like this.
"No." Ais stood up, pointing the saber in her hand at the skeletal monster in front of her. She also took a deep breath and said, "I will win."
The fragile tone was replaced by determination and decisiveness.
Li Ge wanted to refute.
If Aisi is in perfect condition, then Li Ge really doesn't think Aisi will lose.
He remembered that in the original work, Ais also succeeded in achieving great deeds by defeating the floor master on the 37th floor alone, thus rising to Level 6.
With the blessing of extraordinary magic like [Wind Spirit Swiftness], Aisi's true combat power is definitely enough to rival Level 6.
For Ais like this, although Udaios is a formidable enemy, he is definitely not an invincible being.
Therefore, if Aisi is in perfect condition and can exert 100% of her fighting power, Li Ge will choose to believe in Aisi and this girl, allowing her to challenge with confidence.
However, the problem is that Ais is not in perfect condition now.
In order to rush on the road, she has been using [Wind Spirit Rush] for a long time, both physically and mentally.
In such a state, it is a blessing to be able to exert even 70% to 80% of Ais's strength, let alone 100%.
In this case, what can Ais use to fight Udaios?
How do you win?
Li Ge really wanted to refute Ais like this.
Unfortunately, the words had already reached his lips, but Li Ge found that he could not say them out no matter what.
Aisi's eyes crossed the distance between the two and cast their gaze on Li Ge.
There was still determination in those transparent golden eyes, but there were also many, many more pleas.
So, Li Ge fell silent.
His mood rarely became extremely complicated and chaotic.
