Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 519 - 355 Obsessed with Esti_2

Was their prior behavior just a disguise?

That’s not quite accurate either, because before the unknown entity triggered negative emotions, those infected appeared normal if they hadn’t encountered anything related to the meteor.

It’s like a basic rule: as long as you don’t touch the meteor, everything remains normal.

"Ah..."

A murmur escaped Tusi’s lips, seeming absent-minded, with a fervent and impulsive glance directed towards the nebula.

In the next second, he dashed forward, resembling a fearless Berserker, with his physique undergoing subtle changes and appearing beast-like.

His sister stood even straighter, tiptoeing as if she were a rocket ready to launch into the sky.

The nebula churned, darkness torn apart, and suddenly, the "Dark Meteor" Esti descended upon this space.

This time, not just a head appeared; its massive insect-like alien body also arrived, blending the grotesque sensation of insect with human amidst a stunning, mysterious starry sky, forming its twisted, beautiful body like the inexplicable knowledge. ƒreewebɳovel.com

As a Dark Star fallen from above, Esti undoubtedly represents the notion of "Star."

The mere cold silence exuding from its cosmic presence was enough to lure Tusi and his sister, as if facing the unknown entity.

Yet amidst this excitement, Tusi sensed something off.

The "scent" of Esti before him seemed different from that of the unknown entity?

However, this momentary oddness was swiftly overshadowed by Esti’s intense stellar aura. For those infected with beastification symptoms, they recognized the stellar aura first, then the unique aura of the unknown entity; there was a reason for this identification sequence.

Regardless of the reason, when Esti, seemingly embodying a Star itself, arrives beside them, those infected with Beastification Symptoms invariably become frenzied, perceiving it as the unknown entity itself!

This might be what’s called a bug, Esti attracting the infected like a matador.

Hasn’t the Minotaur element in Sain Dungeon been a bit excessive lately?

"Aba Aba!"

Watching Tusi charge towards it, Esti wondered how such a weak being dared to challenge it?

So with a swipe of its skeletal hand, Tusi was reduced to nothing but ash, and with a forward thrust of its tail, Tusi’s sister honorably returned to the bonfire.

Faced with two utterly non-threatening weaklings, Esti wouldn’t bother unleashing a light wave; once all enemies die, its form gradually begins to vanish.

During its wait to disperse, an unexpected scar suddenly appeared on its fingerbones, and before disappearing, a faint engraving appeared on its forehead, as if attacked by a Transparent Man.

These were wounds brought by the adventurers from other Dungeons, indicating that people were fighting vigorously against Esti.

As a world-class boss, Esti would endure attacks from every adventurer on the same body, with countless people fighting simultaneously beside each adventurer.

Beyond the black hole, the Fire Transmission Ceremony.

Seeing Tusi return, Fingerley approached to jest him, only to find his body continuously twitching as if suffering from a severe withdrawal syndrome, eyes fixed on the black hole.

He craved reentering the black hole to feel Esti, yet to outsiders, it seemed akin to an O withdrawal.

"Something’s wrong!"

Fingerley hurriedly covered the fellow’s eyes, and upon finding Tusi’s sister revived at the bonfire exhibiting similar symptoms, Matilda separated two small liquid armor pieces from Hell’s March, tightly locking the duo’s eyes to prevent further black hole gazing.

"What’s happening to them? It’s like their minds are under attack."

Mental attack?

Catching the keyword, Fingerley realized, "Indeed, the Monster within the black hole possesses mental attack capabilities, who’d have thought it’d work so effectively on Tusi and his sister!"

He suddenly remembered how initially seeing Esti, his mind briefly felt impacted, with others showing more obvious effects, suggesting Esti’s mental attacks were perfect for Tusi and his sister.

Truly a perfect misunderstanding.

"What do we do now, boss?"

"Don’t panic, let Aleya handle it," Fingerley comforted everyone, "I attempted yesterday, the Fire Injection Secret Ceremony can mitigate mental damage, where did Tusi undergo Fire Injection?"

"Right here, at the Fire Transmission Ceremony."

"Good, Aleya, assist Tusi in performing the ritual in front of the bonfire, Matilda, let’s proceed to Casas Underground Tomb, seek the three Corpse Warlocks for another Fire Injection Secret Ceremony for Tusi’s sister."

The Bone Stick Team Magician tried using magic to temporarily alleviate the mental attacks on them, but the effect was minimal, possibly linked to the spellcaster’s skill.

Aleya manipulated Tusi before the bonfire to conduct the ritual, promptly easing his struggle, sleeping peacefully like falling into a dream.

Witnessing this scenario, everyone no longer hesitated, left Aleya to care for Tusi’s sister while heading to Casas Underground Tomb to trouble the three Corpse Warlocks.

Within about an hour, they successfully found and eliminated the three Corpse Warlocks. Yet on the way back, keen Matilda said, "Hold on, Fire Injection needs Humanity, do any of you have any left?"

Everyone exchanged glances, Fingerley shook his head, "I used my last one just now on Tusi."

A moment of silence, how to perform Fire Injection without Humanity?

Suddenly someone said, "Actually, I heard that there’s a chance to obtain Humanity upon a victorious invasion, especially if it’s the first invasion and victory of the day, the chance increases significantly!"

"We certainly know that."

Fingerley pulled out the Deep Blue Eye Orb, considered, then switched to Cracked Blood Red Eye Orb, as the latter provided indiscriminate invasion, achieving higher efficiency.

Others couldn’t use the Deep Blue Eye Orb exclusive to the Dark Moon Sword covenant, but the Dark Moon Sword could use the Blood Red Eye Orb, which seemed a bit unfair.

"I’ll be right back, you guys go ahead."

Fingerley waved his hand, and in the next moment, the successful invasion message pierced his mind.

...

Giant Stone Dungeon.

"Wonderful, the adventurers hired today are of high quality, garnered a great haul, I’m sure I’ll surpass that rogue!"

Tepi sat on a transport wagon, observed the packed Elf Balls, and his lips curved slightly.

They were nearing the Teleportation Gate square, fortuitous not confronting any descending Elite Monster, luck seems to favor him~

"Feels great not being hassled by anything else."

[Invaded by the Dark Moon Sword "Rigfen"!!!]

Tepi suddenly leapt up.

"What is it!?"

Facing the slowly materializing dark blue Spiritual Body, an ill premonition surfaced within him.

Meanwhile, the invader felt perplexed.

Examining the completely unfamiliar scene before him, Fingerley mumbled to himself:

"Where did they teleport me to?"

"Is this still Sain?"
