Monsters "little devils" with slender bodies and huge heads appear in groups, pouring towards the center from all directions.
In the center, the shining sword light never stopped for a moment, as gorgeous as the dance of the sword, keeping the whole body airtight. Occasionally, a flick of the sword light would shine out, and it would cut off the head of a little devil.
A total of ten little devils, even if they swarmed up, they didn't get any advantage at all, and they couldn't invade the opponent's sword barrier at all.
He seemed to be effortlessly moving, keeping the number of enemies he faced at the same time to a minimum, and then swung his knife out of nowhere, effectively reducing the number of little devils.
This is a sword skill created by Jiang Li specifically for defense, and its name is (Buddha's Light Without Leakage).
His master, God of War Nango Torajiro, has a very famous move called (Sword Music and Sword Dance). He relies on this move to traverse the battlefield and survive every battle without any injuries in the quagmire-like melee.
Hence the reputation of being perfect.
Jiang Li absorbed the essence of it, and then introduced new ones, transforming it into a sword skill suitable for himself, which is this move.
This is a sword skill that is very suitable for group battles. It can only exert its power in melee. It can make its cross range as inviolable as a barrier, and it can be said to be indestructible when used for defense.
As time went by, Jiang Li reduced the number of little devils to only about three or four.
At this time, the little devils finally knew how to be afraid and understood that this was a tough nut to chew, so they quickly ran away in panic and disappeared into the thick fog.
Jiang Li did not pursue him, but kept panting on the spot, recovering his exhausted energy.
"Hooooh——!"
But before he could rest for long, a roar came loudly.
Immediately afterwards, a huge orc gradually emerged from the fog.
The half-orc has a huge body of three meters tall, with a pig's head. His skin is dark brown, and he wears a grass skirt around his waist. His body is full of fat and looks a bit bloated, but every step he takes makes the ground swell.
Faintly shaking.
"Is the tenth level actually so difficult?"
This is the tenth floor of the dungeon.
A blinding fog filled the space. Just walking a few meters away, it became impossible to see the scene in the distance. There was dry grass under your feet, and it made a rustling sound when you stepped on it.
There is a completely dry forest around, with not a single leaf left, only brittle and hard trunks.
The further you go down, the more complex the terrain of the underground city becomes. There are terrains such as grassland and woods that are rarely found in the upper levels, and the spatial scope becomes larger and larger.
The maze on the fifth floor was only as big as the central square. As a result, the tenth floor was at least as big as a dozen central squares. Coupled with the ever-present thick fog, even the roads became difficult to identify.
According to the rule of "increase the difficulty every five levels", the monsters on the tenth level have also become stronger.
Giant monsters like Orcs will not appear at all on the upper floors. This is the first floor where giant monsters appear. The three-meter-tall body is extremely oppressive and the difficulty can be imagined.
"Hiss...drink!"
Jiang Li took a deep breath, squeezed out all the remaining physical energy through the ancient breathing method taught by his master, and then suddenly dived towards the orc!
The orc's body is very large, and his strength must be very amazing, but his huge body full of fat has also become a burden for him, making his movements very slow.
The orc slapped it down, but only captured a piece of grass. Jiang Li's figure drew a curve, went around from his side to behind it, and then slashed at its leg tendons with a knife.
"Bring~!"
The sword flashed.
"Aww——?!"
The orc cried out in pain, the heels of both feet were cut off, and his body knelt forward uncontrollably.
"Ha!"
Jiang Li shouted low, jumped up from behind, and stabbed the orc in the heart.
"Tsk!"
The blade penetrated into the fat without any resistance.
The orc's eyes widened, but he couldn't make any sound. Then his body lost color, and then turned into black smoke and dissipated, leaving only a piece of magic stone about the size of a thumb.
"Huh..."
Jiang Li couldn't help but sit on the ground.
A fierce battle with the little devils, and using the breathing method to explode with all his strength, had almost exhausted his physical energy. He had to find a way to move to a safe place first, and then explore again after his physical strength recovered.
"Hooooh!"
"Woooooooo——!"
However, like poking a hornet's nest, two orcs ran out of the thick fog again. The two orcs even held dry tree trunks, obviously using the surrounding woods as a natural weapons arsenal. Not only that, after the orcs approached, a group of bat monsters also appeared in the air, continuously emitting disturbing sound waves from their mouths.
"..."
I think you are trying to make things difficult for me.
At the upper level, most of the monsters come up one by one, and the frequency of their appearance is far less frequent.
Unexpectedly, a large group of monsters would easily appear on the tenth floor. The previous group of little demons was the one he accidentally encountered while wandering around. In the end, could even giant monsters like orcs appear in pairs?
Sure enough, the difficulty of the tenth level is not at the same level as the first nine levels!
Jiang Li reached into the leg bag tied to his thigh and took out a bottle of red potion. He quickly poured it into his mouth without worrying about getting his clothes wet.
Before setting off to enter the underground city, Jiang Li went to the department store and bought a waist bag, a leg bag, and several stamina potions.
By the way, an ordinary stamina potion only costs 500 mana, so the host made a lot of money that day.
After taking a potion, my tired body quickly regained its strength.
Jiang Li clenched the cloth spirit knife in his hand, and inserted the dagger behind his waist. He resisted the sonic attacks of the strange-sounding bats with the heart of Mingjing Zhishui, and then focused all his attention on the two orcs.
On your body.
"Come just come, I'm afraid of you!"
There was a fierce look in his eyes.
Then he stepped forward and rushed toward a group of monsters without fear.
…………
Unconsciously, countless stars have been laid out in the sky.
There were very few adventurers traveling to and from the Tower of Babel, and most of them gathered in places like taverns. Under the golden full moon, magic stone lamps illuminated the main streets, making the entire Orario seem like...
It has become a city that never sleeps.
In such a night, Jiang Li dragged his tired body out of the underground city.
