Chapter 529 My authority is above yours!
The eerie black shadow silently blended into the surrounding darkness, disappearing without a trace.
It was as if it had never existed, yet the power it left behind erupted within Hyacinthus's body.
"Ughhhhh!"
Hyacinthus's eyes widened suddenly, as if his consciousness had been forcibly elevated to a divine dimension that overlooked all living beings and controlled all things.
A vast and complex diagram of the underground city appeared with unparalleled clarity in his mind, from the upper levels to the unfathomable depths—
"Is this the power of the gods?!" A wildly ecstatic thought exploded in his mind.
Rumble!
With a slight thought, Hyacinthus manipulated the terrain, and wherever his gaze fell, the massive rock wall in front of him instantly crumbled, with crisscrossing cracks spreading outwards.
This is just the beginning!
With a wave of his hand, Hyacinthus shattered the walls and summoned countless monsters, exuding a bloodthirsty aura. Pairs of eyes flashed with an ominous red light, densely packed and filling every inch of space.
"Hahahaha!"
Witnessing this scene of earth-shattering change and monster-taming, Hyacinthus could no longer contain his ecstatic joy and expansion. He looked up to the sky and let out a twisted, ecstatic laugh that echoed through the distorted underground space, drowning out the roars of thousands of monsters.
Control the dungeon's terrain and spawn monsters!
With this power, no matter how strong Roy is, he will be worn down to death by the dungeon.
Through his powers of perception, Hyacinthus located the heretics deep within the desert on the thirty-third level; no wonder they couldn't find them.
But now, these monsters have nowhere to hide!
Hyacinthus fought his way to the thirty-third floor, and with a wave of his hand, destroyed the "Secret Realm," forcing the heretics out and summoning a large number of monsters to attack.
Like a tidal wave of desert monsters, seemingly endless, they threatened to completely overwhelm the heretics.
Facing these intelligent monsters, Hyacinthus's eyes held no pity, only coldness and cruelty.
Ruthlessness and murderous intent.
It wasn't out of a sense of righteousness, it was purely out of personal vendetta!
If you have anyone to blame, blame it on the fact that you met Roy!
The desert monsters on the 33rd floor, the blood dragon, and the Lemton rushing up from the 37th floor—all these put the heretics in a fierce battle. With Hyacinthus manipulating the terrain, the situation became critical, and a deep despair enveloped them.
However, Hyacinthus wanted to capture these heretics alive; killing them would be pointless. He wanted to use them to accuse Roy and ruin his reputation.
Therefore, the heretics were able to barely hold on.
Just as Hyacinthus's patience was about to run out, Reid finally managed to bring back his strongest warrior, Asterios, through the Eye Crystal.
"roar!"
With his ability value approaching LV.9, Asterios showed Hyacinthus what "overpowering all skills" truly meant. He opened his blood-red maw and let out a deafening roar that shook the entire floor, suppressing the monster's ability value.
Asterios, transformed into a black bull, charged wildly. His iron hooves swept across the land, causing the earth to tremble. Any monster that even slightly touched him was instantly reduced to ashes.
Asterios, who spends most of his time training on the 50th or 60th floor, deals with these monsters with ease.
Hyacinthus had no choice but to retreat and turn his attention to the weaker heretics.
Under repeated attacks, Winnie lost her gem and went berserk. Guided by Hyacinthus, she fought her way through the artificial labyrinth to the surface.
The heretics were forced to chase them to the surface.
This led to an unexpected incident.
Hyacinthus was in no better shape. He thought that gaining control of the dungeon would make dealing with those heretics a piece of cake, but who would have thought it would be so dangerous.
"Damn it, what on earth are those monsters?" Hyacintos gasped for breath, still shaken and furious at the thought of the strange black bull.
There are such powerful monsters in the dungeon!
Hyacinthus recovered quickly and grinned, "Forget it, as long as those monsters get to the surface, they'll be in big trouble!" Whether the heretics are killed or Roy gets involved, it's all trouble, but for him, it's all beneficial.
His next target was the Water City!
There is another mermaid heretic in the waters between the 25th and 27th floors. His ability value is only LV.3. He is confident that he can win!
Under Hyacinthus's control, countless ferocious aquatic monsters pounced on Mary.
Originally, Mary lived in the City of Water, where she was safer than other heretics, but after encountering Hyacinthus, who possessed power, she was gradually driven into a desperate situation.
"Huffing and puffing—huffing and puffing!"
Rapid, foamy breathing echoed through the dark waterway. The mermaid girl, Mari, had a delicate face filled with fear and exhaustion.
Her long, pale green hair clung wetly to her pale cheeks, and her beautiful fishtail, shimmering with a ghostly blue light, was wildly thrashing and slapping the water at an unprecedented speed, trying to create distance in the turbulent, murky waters behind her.
The pursuer's shadow was like a maggot clinging to a bone.
Splash! Splash! Splash!
Countless grotesque, foul-smelling aquatic monsters, like a swarm of sharks stimulated by the smell of blood, stirred up the murky waters and relentlessly pursued him.
The controlled monsters had bloodshot eyes that gleamed in the darkness, their sharp teeth snapping open and closing, their slimy skin and bony flippers cutting through the water, getting closer and closer to Mary's fragile tail fin.
Each near-miss made Mary's heart almost stop beating.
On the shore, Hyacinthus sneered, cruelly watching the desperate chase in the water.
Not enough! How dare they toy with him and Lord Apollo like this! He would make Roy and those around them pay the ultimate price of despair!
The most painful price to pay!
After years of development, Mary's ability level has reached LV.3, but it is almost impossible to fight against so many monsters; she would likely die.
thump!
Mary's back slammed heavily against the cold, slippery rock wall. Her escape route was blocked, and in front of her and to the left and right were surging, ferocious monsters with bared fangs and claws.
The encirclement formed by the aquatic monsters rapidly shrank, and a stench of death swept over them.
"It's over, you despicable mermaid who colluded with Roy." Hyacintos's icy voice rang out.
Mary closed her eyes in despair, her fine, pearly tears mingling with the cold water.
hum!
Suddenly, all the monsters stopped moving abruptly, as if bound by some invisible, powerful force, and stood frozen in place.
A moment later, Mary realized she hadn't been attacked yet, and she trembled as she opened her tightly closed eyes.
What happened?
She stared in disbelief at the eerie, still scene before her, where the monsters remained frozen in place.
Then, Mary's gaze pierced through the murky water and the frozen monsters, reaching the entrance to the dark bay shrouded in the shadow of death.
A figure as tall and straight as a mountain had been standing there quietly for some time now.
"Roy!"
When Mary's eyes reflected that familiar face, her immense shock was instantly replaced by a surge of joy that almost burst from her chest.
With a smile on his face, Roy activated his spatial magic and instantly appeared beside Mary.
"Roy!!" Mary's eyes filled with glistening tears, and a clear, spring-like cry, brimming with endless joy and dependence, burst from her trembling lips.
The dark blue fish tail suddenly swung in the water.
The supple mermaid body shot towards Roy like an arrow released from a bow, then leaped gently into his firm and warm embrace.
"Alas—Alas—"
Mary's slender arms wrapped tightly around Roy's neck, her exquisite face buried deep in Roy's chest, rubbing against him like a cute kitten, her small nose greedily inhaling his comforting scent.
Roy's eyes softened as he comforted the frightened mermaid girl while taking out a high-grade elixir from his spatial ring and sprinkling it on her body.
As a vibrant, emerald-green light flashed by, Mary's wounds gradually healed.
"So refreshing! So comfortable!"
Mary felt the pain in her body disappear quickly. She slightly raised her small face, squinted her eyes with pleasure, and her pure blue sapphire eyes curved like crescent moons. Her pale face was tinged with a captivating blush because of the excitement and shyness of happiness.
"It's you!" Hyacintos also noticed Roy, and his expression darkened. He arrived so quickly. Was this the spatial magic that the other party had awakened?
Roy gently placed Mary back into the water.
Mary popped her little head out of the water and looked at Roy excitedly. In her mind, Roy was the strongest and most reliable, and no one could defeat him.
Roy's gaze fell on Hyacinthus.
Aside from his unique XP, Apollo is essentially a benevolent god. He defeated the opposing clan through a war game, banishing them from Orario.
The tragic master and servant couple attracted the attention of the gods, and Roy couldn't bring himself to harm them and eliminate them completely.
Then, something else happened at this time.
Roy asked with interest, "I heard you can control the terrain of the dungeon and the spawning of monsters?"
"hehe!"
Hearing Roy say this, Hyacinthus knew that the other had obtained his information from the heretics, and couldn't help but let out a smug laugh. "I am invincible now, along with Lord Apollo's wrath. Roy, prepare for your despair!"
Bang!
As soon as the words were spoken, the calm water in the distance suddenly exploded, revealing a huge figure—a two-headed dragon, its left side azure and its right side crimson.
Water City Floor Master: Amphispina!
"Hahahaha, did you see that? Even the floor master, I can summon him with just a thought!" Hyacintos laughed maniacally.
Roy's eyes remained impassive. "You intend to use a monster of this level against me?"
Hyacinthus roared in fury, almost a howl, "Tear him apart, Amphispina!"
Of course, Hyacinthus was not so reckless.
Roy, who had just defeated the Black Dragon, had leveled up to LV.9, and the mere Amphispina was no match for him.
What he wanted was for Amphispina to distract Roy so he could escape. With the power of the earth, he could take and use the resources of the underground city at will, and making a comeback would not be difficult!
That will be the real revenge!
But Hyacintos clearly didn't understand that Roy was able to find this place so quickly not only because of spatial magic, but also because of the same power as him.
The two-headed dragon Amphispina, which was perched on the lake and exuding a fierce aura, remained motionless upon hearing Hyacinthus's command, its heavy, muffled breathing echoing slowly and rhythmically.
A meaningful glint flashed in Roy's deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment!
An extremely eerie, suffocating awkwardness and deathly silence filled the cave, with only Hyacinthus's heavy, angry breathing remaining.
"You bastard, what are you doing?!"
"Attack! Attack!"
Hyacintos's eyes were bloodshot, his handsome face contorted in rage, as he wildly waved his arms, using his powers to try and forcibly control Amphispina.
His roar echoed in vain, sinking into the ocean without stirring a ripple in the eyes of the two-headed dragon.
"Damn it, what on earth is going on?!"
Seeing the strange look Roy gave him, Hyacinthus felt humiliated and hysterically cursed that this monster had defied his will!
At this moment, Roy, who had been silent all along, spoke. His voice wasn't loud, but it easily drowned out Hyacinthus's roar, "Amphispina, attack!"
hum!
The instant he heard Roy's instructions.
Amphispina's two enormous heads suddenly turned, their giant eyes locking onto Hyacinthus.
"roar!"
Two overlapping, sky-shattering dragon roars, filled with boundless ferocity, suddenly exploded.
Under Hyacinthus's horrified gaze, the two-headed dragon opened its massive maw, and deep within its throat, two different colors of blinding flames converged wildly.
The terrifying high temperature and energy fluctuations caused the surrounding air to distort and vaporize, and the destructive light illuminated Hyacinthus's bewildered, lost, and utterly distorted face, turning it deathly pale!
Roy walked forward, each step seemingly treading on Hyacinthus's heart, making the other man tremble with fear. What terrified him even more was the question that followed.
"Which floor do you have access to?"
"???"
In a short period of time, Hyacinthus, with his limited understanding, could not comprehend the meaning of Roy's words.
"It means exactly what it says, the maximum number of floors you can control," Roy confirmed a second time.
This time, Hyacinthus heard clearly.
His pupils dilated; those intelligent monsters probably only knew that he could manipulate the terrain and create monsters.
Moreover, Roy's tone—as if he already knew about this, was very familiar with it, and combined with Roy's words, he managed to stop Amphispina.
Hyacinthus felt a great deal of panic!
The power he obtained from that mysterious being was his means of fighting against Roy. If Roy had known this beforehand, he might have been plunged into the abyss once again.
"What are you talking about? No, who are you?!" Hyacintos pointed at Roy, his voice trembling as he spoke, on the verge of collapse.
"That shouldn't be relevant to the present."
Roy chuckled and said, "I was just thinking that if you had higher authority than me, it would be a little troublesome to deal with you. Fortunately, it wasn't."
Between him and Yacintos, Amphispina chose Roy's orders to act.
Without a doubt, his authority was superior to the other party's!
