Chapter 417 The Great Demon Clan Trial: A Hopeless Battle of Annihilation

He unhesitatingly passed through the familiar void portal. Da Ai Shiren’s body, like reintegrating into water, gradually disappeared into the deep purple light.

Along with a strange and magical sense of weightlessness, her body and soul seemed to be drawn away from the real world.

This state of rapid descent didn't last long. After a sudden burst of dizziness, Da Ai Shiren felt the cold, hard ground beneath her.

She fell face first again.

She lay there for several seconds, but no one came to help. Finally, she started to try on her own.

Da Ai Shiren propped herself up on the metal-like, stone-like floor and stood up unsteadily, gently smoothing her hair that had been messed up by the fall.

Looking around carefully, she saw that she was the only one in the empty entrance transfer hall.

Everyone else had disappeared.

Standing in the hall where she was, she looked ahead. At the far end of the wide corridor, swirling mists descended continuously, settling in this strange and mysterious space.

It seemed to be the starting point of a labyrinth. The high walls surrounding the corridors inside the prison were covered with bizarre symbols and flashing lights, and the light curtain on the floor shimmered with soft, deep blue luster, like a starry river in a dream, or a distant and deep universe.

This was quite similar to the ground structure of the Herloom Station. Once stepped on, it would inevitably trigger some kind of enchantment.

Level -5 was very wide. Judging from the map displayed on the light curtain in the transfer hall, it should be a giant maze.

Its structure was constantly changing, and the entire level was in a state similar to the distorted old district of Herloom Space. Arriving at certain places would immediately transport you to another location.

The five intern prison guards who came to Level -5, several at the fifth and eighth ranks, seemed to have failed to teleport completely accurately, landing in random locations within the Level -5 prison. Only Da Ai Shiren, at the first rank, successfully arrived at the entrance transfer hall.

After all, Da Ai Shiren was much weaker than Boss Cat, so there was basically no burden for the teleportation.

"So, I have to go to the exit hall alone... Where are you, Milian?"

The lonely figure with black hair and green eyes, with a hint of confused drowsiness in her eyes, muttered to herself.

Lan Qi was already used to being led around by Hyberian in this prison, and most of the time he didn't need to pay attention to the Herloom Prison.

Now he needed to concentrate very hard, chatting with Warden Bakas while controlling Da Ai Shiren's actions.

He lowered his head helplessly and looked at the deep red light curtain on his bracelet.

[A large number of service points can be obtained by surviving and being on duty on Level -5 of the Herloom Prison.]

[Service points can be exchanged for resources in the prison. Trading permissions for the current level can only be opened after all conditions for going to the next level are met.]

[Current location: Entrance Hall, Level -5 of Herloom Prison.]

[Job content: Sweeping away phantoms.]

[Note: After entering Level -5, your phantom will appear within a hundred meters of you. The phantom will completely copy you, including your intelligence, personality, all props and combat experience, and will be stronger than you.]

[Note: The phantom can lock onto your location, and its only goal is to hunt down your original body and seize your existence.]

[Note: Each person will only summon one phantom per day. Arriving at the transfer hall, office area, or cell can temporarily make the phantom disappear. Other people's phantoms will not actively attack you, but if you actively attack them, the target of the attack will be transferred.]

[Conditions for going to Level -6: Sweep away all the phantoms on the current level, the team's service points are greater than 5000, and obtain the permission and evaluation of the Level -5 Warden.]

"..."

Lan Qi quickly swiped through the pages, one by one. It wasn't much different from Level -4. The only special thing was the "phantom."

Adding to the reminder from Warden Selena on Level -4 and the information Hyberian told him, he basically understood what the Great Demon Trial on this level was.

It was said that there was a Great Demon from the ancient era tens of thousands of years ago, named Hopeless Sadia, whose ultimate form of talent magic was to summon a copy of the opponent's phantom.

When facing this ninth-rank Great Demon, once you developed the will to fight or even hate him, he would first summon a stronger copy, with the limit being the peak of the eighth rank.

And in legion battles, the ninth-rank Great Demon Hopeless Sadia was an opponent that no matter how many eighth ranks could defeat.

He was a super noob-killer.

The last moment of his life also left the Demon race with the Great Demon Trial he transformed into – [The Desperate Extinction Battle].

The intensity of the phantom will be determined according to one's own fighting spirit.

When maintaining the lowest fighting spirit, the phantom will only be about as strong as the original body; when pushing the fighting spirit to the extreme, the phantom will not only be stronger than the original body, but will even reach the eighth rank.

In other words, as long as you are willing, you can even see the eighth-rank limit of yourself in [The Desperate Extinction Battle].

If you can't control your combat will well, you may accidentally attract an extremely terrifying phantom and instantly obliterate yourself.

For the prison guards on this level, they must constantly avoid the pursuit of phantoms in the maze and reach the safe area as soon as possible.

In most cases when they are alone, it will be a state of escape, being locked on as an opponent by their enhanced phantom.

The job content of the intern prison guards is to unite with several intern prison guard companions, defeat the phantoms one by one through gang fighting, and sweep them all away.

"Wait, then my opponent is..."

Lan Qi thought with his chin propped up, and looked at his current body in the Herloom Prison, then tentatively stepped onto the ground outside the transfer hall.

The warden's office should also be not far from the entrance transfer hall, so he might as well go find the warden first and get permission.

Usually, the vicinity of the transfer hall is a very safe location. As long as you feel that the situation is not right, you can retreat at any time, but correspondingly, you will also be blocked at the entrance by the phantom, and you need to wait for someone to rescue you.

However, Lan Qi's steps grew larger and larger, gradually accelerating his light pace, as if he had no scruples at all.

On the left and right sides of the corridor, rows of huge prison doors were arranged irregularly. The figure with black hair and green eyes stepped forward, and the metal floor made a faint echo.

Every step was stimulating the magic power of the surrounding environment. The silence was broken by the slight sound of enchantment operation, as if welcoming or warning a new visitor.

Obviously, his phantom had been born and had begun the hunt in the maze.

Lan Qi was still not afraid at all, and according to the dynamic map displayed on the bracelet, he looked for the path to the warden's office.

Because – this cage is copied based on the body rather than based on consciousness.

Then, as long as he beats up Da Ai Shiren later? Can he easily and comfortably go to find the exit transfer hall?

"Lan Fu, it's not that I want to beat you, this is something that can't be helped, I can only challenge your phantom..."

Lan Qi muttered to himself, and stepped on the road impatiently!

There will be two updates slowly today, my eyes are blurred. I will continue to update more tomorrow. In addition, there will be a standing picture of Da Ai Shiren with black hair and green eyes in the next few days.
