The people who had gathered around the open space to watch the battle before were also rioting at this moment because of the sudden vibration, and they seemed a little panicked.
Seeing that the shaking of the entire eighteenth-floor space became more and more intense, the guesses in Chen Mo's mind became more and more clear. The next moment, he suddenly raised his head to look above the zenith.
"...Hey, are you kidding me?"
"What joke?"
Hearing Chen Mo's voice, Hestia also looked up at the zenith.
The moment her line of sight touched the crystal barrier of the zenith, a look of astonishment appeared on her face, and then she sighed in the same way.
"Just kidding... this kind of thing..."
At this moment, dense cracks appeared in the huge crystal barrier covering the top of the eighteenth floor, together with the white crystal in the center.
In the depths of the crystal, countless huge objects are slowly sinking.
...dozens?Or hundreds?
They are completely uncountable, they overlap each other, constantly approaching the lowest layer of the crystal barrier.
"Paji - Paji -"
The cracks on the crystal zenith became more dense, and it looked like porcelain that was broken and glued together with clumsy techniques, and it would break with a light touch.
Ah, so that's how it is...
Witnessing the scene in front of him like a collapse of the sky, Chen Mo suddenly understood.
Those light rains that kept falling were not gorgeous decorations, but the materialization of the dungeon's malice—the powder that fell when the inside of the crystal zenith cracked.
Since entering the eighteenth floor, these light spots have been conveying danger signals, but they have not attracted anyone's attention. Even Chen Mo, who has read the original book, knows that there may be mutations. The main floor enters the eighteenth floor This kind of thing, but also because Hestia didn't burst out with divine power like in the original book, I didn't take it seriously.
——Once again, take it lightly!
"pat..."
At the most densely cracked place, a piece of crystal fragment shone with crystal light, and fell down fragilely, falling to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Hearing this voice, everyone raised their heads as if waking up from a dream, looked towards the top of the sky, and then...
"Clap clap clap..."
More and more crystal fragments fell, and the objects in the zenith got closer to the bottom, gradually revealing their true colors.
"...Goliath?"
"Impossible, this is obviously a safe floor, why did the floor master appear here!"
The adventurers gathered around the open space began to panic, and some even yelled like screams, but these were of no avail. The cracks on the zenith continued to expand from the inside out, and soon reached the bottom the end.
"Hey, white-haired brat, Lily, come to me quickly!"
Seeing the monsters in the Zenith Crystal that are half the size of ordinary Goliaths, including some enhanced species covered with crimson scales, Chen Mo suddenly turned his head and loudly stared at the crowd Bell and Lily, who were in a daze, shouted.
Hearing Chen Mo's voice, both of them were startled, but they reacted immediately, ran to Chen Mo's side, and drew out their weapons at the same time.
"Listen up, white-haired brat..."
Slowly pulling out the ordinary iron sword in his hand, Chen Mo stared into Bell's eyes, and told him: "Although I have always called you a white-haired brat, you are the only one in the Hestia family besides me. So no matter what danger you encounter later, I will not allow you to run away like a coward... Anyway, protect Lord Shangshen and Lily well, understand?"
"..."
The tone of Chen Mo's exhortations was not strong, even without any ups and downs, but it fell into Bell's ears, which made him feel particularly heavy.
Protection means responsibility...
But right now, to provoke this responsibility, they must face those terrifying monsters.
Fear, fear... Of course, any low-level adventurer will feel afraid when facing a floor master like Goliath.
but……
In my mind, I recalled Chen Mo's gesture of wearing black clothes and swinging his sword like rain when he fought against the two Goliaths on the seventeenth floor.
Although his body was covered in blood, it made people feel radiant, just like the plots in those hero stories that he had been longing for.
can't say no to...
The fear of facing a super powerful enemy almost made Bell's calves tremble, but he couldn't refuse.
In my heart, there seemed to be a group of fiercely burning flames, sweeping through my whole body like lightning.
Complying with the throbbing that almost made people go out of his body, Bell clenched the dagger tightly in his hand, so as to bring him enough courage to stop trembling.
"Yes, senior!"
"very good."
Looking at the young man whose eyes seemed to be burning with turbulent fighting spirit, Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction.
And at this moment...
"boom--"
The violent cracking sound resounded throughout the eighteenth-floor space.
Zenith, cracked.
