Chapter 266 The Astrea Familia Shocks Orario
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, we've arrived at the highly anticipated war game that everyone has been waiting for.
The entire Orario seemed to fall silent.
Everyone knows what will happen today.
Instead of entering the dungeon as usual, the adventurers huddled together in the tavern, as did the civilians. After completing their basic tasks, they stopped and waited for the war game to begin.
Needless to say, the gods, on the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel, had their spacious assembly halls packed with people.
People, adventurers, and gods—regardless of race or age—all wore expressions of anticipation.
The two goddesses at the center of the war, Astraea and Ishtar, also came here.
The gods' gazes frequently fell upon the two of them.
Ishtar's low-class businesses—smuggling, human trafficking, forcing young girls into prostitution, colluding with dark factions, and abducting members of other clans—are naturally opposed to the justice that Astraea upholds.
Ishtar, far from being ashamed, was actually proud. Her alluring lips curled into a smile as she exhaled a cloud of smoke, completely composed. "Asteria, I've already won!"
The gods were astonished. Even though the outside world believed that Ishtar's clan had a higher chance of winning, Ishtar was too confident, as if she was certain that she would win!
Only a few deities remained noncommittal.
Loki yawned, "It's hard to say!" As a neighbor, she had seen Tione, Tiona, and the others training diligently in the courtyard all day long.
And Takemikazuchi, who had visited the Star Garden a few days ago, just shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Astraea smiled but remained silent.
Freya was not here; instead, she sat on the top floor of the Tower of Babel, dressed in an elegant evening gown, with a wine glass on the table beside her, its ruby-red liquid emitting a captivating aroma.
"Begin, your stage is over there!"
Freya's exquisite lips curled up slightly, her deep gaze seemingly piercing through a vast distance, landing on a clearing deep within the Orb Mountains.
That was the location where the last treasure was buried, and also the site of the decisive battle she had chosen for the two clans!
Freya felt immensely pleased as she manipulated everything behind the scenes, making all things in the world operate according to her wishes, and the bitterness and boredom in her heart were swept away.
Hermes cried out to the sky, "Uranus, allow me to use my divine power!"
"allow!"
It was an old, deep, and ethereal voice, seemingly coming from all directions, making it impossible to pinpoint its source. Yet, almost everyone in Orario knew that it was the great god Uranus!
The guardian of Orario, the god of the city!
With Uranus's permission, Hermes' divine power was briefly unleashed. With a wave of his hand, his astonishing power twisted the rules of the world.
Throughout Orario, mirrors appeared in every corner, projecting images of the two major clans.
The images created by divine power are so clear that no magical props or display screens can match them. The number of divine mirrors is outrageous; almost everyone has one. This is a miracle that only gods can accomplish.
"Ooooooooooo!"
Upon seeing the scene in the divine mirror, the people and adventurers in the streets, alleys, and taverns cheered.
Guild Headquarters.
On this special day, there weren't many adventurers, and Eina, Misha, and other staff members had a rare moment of free time. They looked at the scene displayed in the Divine Mirror with tense expressions.
It's good that the Astrea Familia won.
If the Ishtar Familia wins, it will create a rift with the guild that just seized two-thirds of their assets, which is obviously not a good thing.
Many people have grievances against Eina in this matter, as it was she who pushed things along, and everyone has to bear the risks.
Feeling the gazes directed at her from time to time, Eina gritted her teeth and endured the pressure.
Even the not-so-bright Misha knew that if the Ishtar Familia won, her best friend's fate wouldn't be good. In a sense, the other side wasn't exactly biased towards the Astrea Familia; they were just following procedures and were a tiny bit faster.
"We have to win," Misha prayed silently.
In the image from the Divine Mirror, the Astrea Familia and the Ishtar Familia had not yet gone to war.
The Astraea Familia consisted of seven members: Roy, Ryu, Tione, Tiona, and Daphne.
Cassandra and Lily.
As the leader, Roy should have been the commander-in-chief; his defeat meant the entire operation was lost.
The number of Ishtar Familia members participating in the war was 3,600. Although this number was exaggerated, fewer than 300 of them were combat prostitutes who could be considered as having fighting power.
The others are just tools for finding treasure.
After all, one of the winning conditions in this war game is to find treasure, and the more people there are, the better.
This is also one of the main reasons why outsiders are not optimistic about the Astrea Familia.
The ratio of people on both sides is approximately 1:500!
Considering the difficulty of finding the treasure, the war game will last for three days. If neither side's commander is defeated by the end of the three days, the clan with the most treasures will automatically win.
With so many members of the Ishtar clan participating in the war game, the amount of living supplies required was astronomical. As a result, they mortgaged many properties for a final gamble.
The Hall of Twilight.
Finn, Riveria, Grace, Ais, and the others sat in the spacious hall, looking at the divine mirror above them, their expressions varied and complex.
"It's the Astrea Familia again, the third War Game," Finn laughed.
The Loki Familia members fell silent. This was the first time they had ever witnessed something like this—three war games in less than two years. It was insane.
This is a war where everything is at stake!
"There's nothing we can do; too many enemies are eyeing it!" Riveria said, seemingly unintentionally, on its behalf.
Roy and his companions, who claimed to be a righteous clan, were like a drop of clear water falling into the murky vat of Orario, greatly displeasing many demons and monsters.
Once you offend one, it's like a chain reaction, with rats hiding in the dark gradually surfacing one after another.
The discovery of the Ishtar Familia was not accidental or coincidental, but rather an inevitable event.
Finn, Grace, and the others fell silent.
Rivera took good care of Roy of the Astraea Familia, and they wouldn't want to make a fool of themselves.
Rivera stared at the boy in the mirror with her jewel-like green eyes, sighing inwardly, wondering why he was always being targeted by troublesome beings.
They had just finished their expedition when the guild pulled them in to suppress the Ishtar Familia and confiscate their assets. She didn't have time to see Roy.
An anomaly occurred on the 37th floor. When Zagnat appeared, Loki's Familia was also in the dungeon, but they had already explored more than 50 floors of the dungeon.
More than a dozen floors away, I couldn't hear the wailing from the 37th floor, nor did I know what had happened.
When they returned, the dungeon had been repaired, the corpses had been eaten by monsters, and they saw nothing else.
"Finn, what do you think the Astraea Familia's chances of winning are?" Riveria asked.
The Loki Familia members all looked at the leader of the Tottenham tribe, who was known as the "Hero" and was a man of great wisdom.
Finn licked his thumb and pondered, "It's a 50/50 chance. The Ishtar Familia is not to be trifled with."
Contrary to the rumors circulating outside, Finn had met Roy, Ryu, and others, and was familiar with their intelligence, strength, and...
They all have a certain understanding of willpower.
If she weren't confident, the goddess Astraea wouldn't have proposed the war game.
That being said, Finn's words also revealed a hint of apprehension towards the Ishtar Familia, not only because of their unparalleled economic strength, but also because he had heard many rumors that the Ishtar Familia might be hiding the true strength of its members.
Many of the combat prostitutes are a level stronger than those recorded in the guild.
Following numerous reports from adventurers, the guild considered sending someone to investigate, but before they could verify the information, this incident occurred.
Upon hearing this, the Loki Familia members sighed, realizing that their good neighbor was in trouble this time.
Rivera pursed her thin lips, a hint of regret flashing deep in her eyes. "Ais, after this war game is over, go and challenge Roy again!"
"Um!"
An expressionless, doll-like blonde beauty sat beside her. Upon hearing Riveria's words, a startling fighting spirit flashed in her golden eyes.
"Good morning, everyone! We meet again. I am Ibri Achar, the commentator for this war game and a member of the Ganesha Familia. Nice to meet you!" The familiar young man appeared in the mirror, holding a magic stone megaphone.
He appeared on a mountain peak with an excellent view and witnessed the situation of the two major clans.
"Let me briefly explain the rules of the treasure hunt game. Eleven treasures are buried in the forest. The first clan to find six treasures wins!"
"I'm sure some people will ask, 'Streamer, if I don't want to do the treasure hunt, is there an easier way to win?'"
"some!"
"Defeating the enemy commander can also lead to victory!"
"Whether to send out a large number of people to search for the treasure, or to have the main force protect the commander and prevent him from being beheaded, depends on the plans and calculations of the strategists on both sides!"
Ibrahim gave a passionate explanation.
"Looking at the lineups of both sides, the Astrea Familia's commander is Roy, the 'Sprout of Justice,' the adventurer who levels up the fastest in history, the Son of Miracles!"
The commander of the Ishtar Familia is Lina Tally, a Level 2 adventurer. I've never heard of her before. Oh, I see. This is the Ishtar Familia's strategy: to appoint an unknown nobody as their commander. As long as they keep her hidden, they can send out a large number of people to search for treasure!
But the commander-in-chief is the soul of the team; can she stabilize morale like "Sprout of Justice"?
"I hereby declare the war game open!!"
As Ibli announced the start, a deafening cheer erupted throughout Orario.
Countless people stared intently at the magic mirror.
The Orb Mountains, the Seollu Forest.
The vast forest was divided into two areas, temporarily controlled by two major clans. Entry into the enemy territory was only permitted when the guide gave the order.
The magic mirror will reveal almost everyone.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the two clans wouldn't dare to break the rules; after all, they still had some sense of shame.
Upon hearing Ibli's explanation, the members of the Ishtar Familia's faces darkened, finding it extremely jarring.
"Who's some nobody?!" Lina gritted her teeth, wishing she could go up and fight the other person to the death.
"Damn it, he really dares to say that. How about we send two people to take care of that foul-mouthed brat?" Samira, a member of the Ishtar Familia, said coldly.
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
"Forget it, we don't have time to worry about him right now!" Aisha said, pursing her lips as she carried her large broadsword.
Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.
Ibri was merely telling the truth; Lina's mission was simply to hide and avoid being beheaded by the Astrea Familia. The real commander was Aisha.
"Girls, hurry up and find all the treasures!" Aisha raised her broadsword.
"Oooooo!"
The surrounding prostitutes erupted in a burst of passionate voices, most of them being unrestrained Amazons.
Among the prostitutes, the inconspicuous fox-girl, cloaked and unassuming, was carefully observed. Several level 2 and 3 combat prostitutes, extremely discreet, were hidden among the crowd, responsible for protecting her.
A treasure hunt game, where the prizes are said to be treasures.
The Choice is actually a magical artifact commissioned by the guild and made by Asphie. It incorporates the divine blood of Amatriya and Ishtar and can sense the presence of both of their familiars.
If a member with the same divine bloodline obtains a treasure, the fact that the member possesses that treasure will automatically be recognized as the one who obtained it. Once all six treasures are obtained by one member at the same time, the member will win, so no referee is needed.
Just as the Ishtar Familia's prostitutes were preparing to search for treasure, one of them, who was responsible for scouting, rushed back in a panic, panting, "Aisha, something terrible has happened! Those guys from the Amatoria Familia are coming this way!"
The prostitutes paused in their movements.
Aisha asked, "How many people came?"
The investigating prostitute replied, "Everyone, including those with a strong sense of public morality and the seeds of justice!"
The slaughterhouse fell into a deathly silence.
"Are you kidding me? Are you sure you're not mistaken?!" Samira grabbed the detective prostitute.
The girl's face was bitter. She was at least a LV.2, how could she have gone to the wrong place? Besides, those guys were too arrogant, walking towards them openly without any intention of hiding.
Aisha, who had been calm and composed, frowned. The Amatera Familia was at a huge disadvantage in terms of numbers, and their speed in finding treasures was far slower than that of the Amatera Familia.
Aisha had anticipated that the enemy would win by prioritizing the decapitation of their commander. To mobilize everyone at the very beginning of the war game was simply outrageous!
It's too late to say.
Led by Roy, with Ryu, Tione, Tiona, Daphne, Cassandra, and Lily following closely behind, they soon entered the area controlled by the Ishtar Familia and strode forward.
The group looked like they were out for a stroll.
The combat prostitutes on guard were stunned, unsure whether to attack or not.
"What are the Amaterasu Familia planning?"
It wasn't just the battle prostitutes of the Ishtar Familia; the gods, adventurers, and people of Orario also harbored the same doubts.
They couldn't understand what kind of operation it was to walk into enemy territory so unprepared.
"Hahaha, Amatriya, is your child stupid?" Ishtar mocked, her wild laughter echoing throughout the grand hall on the thirtieth floor.
Amatera remained silent and smiled.
Faced with such a goddess as Amritria, Ishtar felt as if she had punched a cotton ball, her expression shifting between anger and uncertainty, yet she still had absolute confidence!
The gods' gazes lingered on the two goddesses, as if in the calm before a storm.
"Could it be?"
Loki, sitting in the back, vaguely realized something. She opened her squinted eyes slightly and unconsciously straightened her back, wanting to sit up straight to see.
Freya, atop the Tower of Babel, gradually lost her smile, put down her wine glass, and stared intently at Roy, who was reflected in the divine mirror, as if she were seeing him for the first time.
Is this boy trying to defy her will?
at the same time.
On the other side of the Seol Forest, Samira of the Ishtar Familia asked, "Aisha, what's wrong?"
Everyone was waiting for Aisha's idea.
Despite being outraged by Aisha's shattering of the Killing Stone, Zeishta was well aware of Aisha's abilities and relinquished command at the crucial moment.
-
After being beaten half to death by Frini and enduring Ishtar's seductive torment, Aisha leveled up to LV.4, and with the level upgrade, she became a LV.5 adventurer!
At this moment, Aisha's expression was not good. The Astrea Familia had not come to surrender, so there was only one outcome they faced!
Aisha felt an urge to curse.
What kind of terrifying enemy has that idiotic goddess who's always thinking about dealing with Freya provoked?
The Astrea Familia had no interest in treasure hunting; the other side wanted to wipe out the Ishtar Familia!
They had to charge forward; if they spread out and were picked off one by one, they would die even faster. Aisha quickly made a decision: "All the fighting prostitutes, assemble! The rest of you, proceed as planned and find the treasure as soon as possible!"
On the Amatriya Familia's side, the LV.5 "Public Wind" was the only LV.5 adventurer on their side, Freni Jamil, whose ashes had been scattered.
Only she, Tamms, and a few others at LV.4.
With a heavy heart, Aisha led a large group of warrior prostitutes and the men of the goddess Ishtar to meet Roy and his companions.
The two stopped fifty meters apart.
This scene was captured in the divine mirror.
Everyone was jolted awake. They had thought that this war game would not be decided until at least the third day, but on the very first day, both sides were going to start a full-scale war, catching them all off guard.
Aisha pointed her broadsword and shouted across the distance, "Sprouts of Justice, this is my side! Five hundred fighting prostitutes, with strength at every level, far outnumber you. Surrender, you have no chance of winning!"
A large group of Amazonian girls, forming a fighting prostitute with unrestrained smiles on their faces and holding various weapons, stood behind Aisha to bolster her morale.
Even without that, Frini, with the strength of the Battle Prostitutes Group, is enough to squeeze into the top five in Orario.
The Amaterasu Familia only has a LV.5 male Wind, a LV.4 Germinated Justice, and a LV.3 Amazon Sister; the other three are not worth paying attention to.
According to their plan.
With such a large group of their own people going out to slaughter, the Amatera Familia must be in a state of panic.
The choice yields completely opposite results.
Lily glanced at the combat prostitutes next to Aisha and scoffed, "What five hundred combat prostitutes? They look like only two or three hundred."
Tione recalled what had happened in the Kingdom of Lachia and laughed, "The commander said that these self-reported figures are usually just for show."
The girls nodded in agreement.
"Commander, what's wrong?"
Their gazes then fell on Roy.
Roy, unfazed, ordered, "All troops, charge! Objective—annihilate the entire Ishtar Familia!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Tiony, Daphne, and the others were eager to get started.
The Mirror not only displays images in real time, but can also transmit sound. Upon hearing Roy's instructions, Orario was in an uproar, and they even doubted that they had heard correctly.
Seven people trying to charge at two or three hundred people?
Everyone had heard of Roy's exploits in the Kingdom of Lachia. The soldiers who received favors from the outside world were completely different from the adventurers of Orario!
Regardless of their thoughts, Roy and his men had already begun their operation, charging out like tigers descending a mountain.
That bold and fearless aura gave the Ishtar Familia's battle prostitutes the illusion that they were about to be crushed to pieces.
Aisha's face darkened completely. "Tammama, lead the first squad to hold off Gongfeng. Samira, lead the second squad to deal with the Amazon sisters. The rest of you, follow me to deal with Justice Sprout. Give me the support magic! Give it to Tamma in ten minutes!"
A series of clear instructions came out of Aisha's mouth, the most important of which was the last one.
To avoid revealing her "level-up," "support magic" was the title she and Haruhime chose for her.
The level upgrade lasts for fifteen minutes.
After using it, Chun Ji needs to rest for ten minutes before she can use it a second time. Then she can use it on the LV.4 Tamma. At that time, the two LV.5 adventurers on their side will have no problem defeating the LV.5 "Gongfeng".
"—Grow bigger, with all your strength and actions, with countless treasures and countless wishes. When the bells toll, pray for glory and dreams—" Hearing Aisha's instructions, the fox-girl sighed and began to chant, looking sadly at Roy in the distance through her hood.
"The Righteous Treasure Hammer—!"
Haruhime's last cry faded away.
A dazzling, metallic brilliance erupted, and strands of golden threads circled her body before transferring to Aisha's.
The scattered gold particles created a light effect on Aisha, raising her to LV.5!
The gods and adventurers guessed it was probably some kind of enhancement magic, since there were people in Orario.
But no one could have imagined that this "enhancement" would be so ridiculously strong that it could forcibly raise the level by one!
Having reached LV.5, Aisha felt a surge of power coursing through her body. She raised her greatsword and shouted, "Charge! Defeat the budding justice, and it will all be over!"
"Charge!"
Led by Aisha, numerous fighting prostitutes and Ishtar's men charged out like a thousand horses, and the earth trembled beneath their feet.
In this forest, the two sides quickly made contact.
Aisha was always at the forefront, so she couldn't be the commander-in-chief; she had to be responsible for charging into battle.
"The seeds of justice are sprouting!"
"Your biggest mistake was to slaughter us. I want your head!" Aisha's eyes flashed with a fierce light. She pushed off with her feet and charged straight at Roy like an arrow! The heavy broadsword in her hand, as heavy as a door panel, shrieked through the air as it viciously slashed at Roy's neck.
Facing Aisha's all-out attack, Roy remained calm, his gaze fixed on her with a composed expression.
Just as the blade was about to strike Roy, a cold, sharp shout rang out.
"You're not worthy to fight the Commander!"
Tione's figure suddenly shifted to the side, so fast that she left a silver afterimage in her place! The silver moon blades in her hands were like two intersecting bolts of cold lightning, precisely blocking the downward-slashing giant blade at the critical moment!
Clang—!
A deafening metallic explosion instantly ripped through the battlefield! Blinding sparks, like dancing crimson snakes, erupted from the clash of blades and curved steel!
The immense impact caused the ground beneath their feet to slightly cave in, sending dust flying!
With her attack blocked, Aisha's eyes flashed with even greater ferocity. With a flick of her wrist, she slashed diagonally. Tione sneered, his parrying twin blades twisting in the same direction!
The next moment!
The two figures had already turned into blurry shadows!
The heavy slashes of the broadsword unleashed a fierce wind pressure, while the silver crescent blade drew eerie and deadly arcs! The flashes of swords clashed and collided, the clanging sounds were deafening, the intense offense and defense were so fast that they left only trails of rapid movement in place!
The prostitutes along the way avoided the fight, staring in shock at the two men's battle.
Roy glanced at it briefly and said, "Tiona, go help Tione."
"Okay!" Tiona replied with a smile, using her legs to quickly catch up with the two people.
"Tiona, this is my prey!"
"This is the commander's order!"
"Aaaaaaah, Captain, can't you give me a little more trust?"
With Tiona joining the battle, Aisha was besieged, and her situation visibly deteriorated.
Tiona's eyes burned with fighting spirit. Her twin blades, carrying the savage power to cleave mountains, swept across Aisha's waist with a sharp, piercing sound!
The quality of the double-edged sword far surpasses that of Aisha's large broadsword. Its sharpness is fully revealed, and the heavy blade compresses the air, emitting a muffled groan!
Aisha's pupils contracted slightly. Relying on her amazing fighting instincts, her slender body leaned back, narrowly avoiding the attack with a near-breaking-in-the-waist iron bridge. The wind pressure generated by the giant blade howled and tore through her afterimage!
However-
Before she could fully straighten up and retaliate, a deadly glint of light suddenly flashed from her blind spot behind her! Like a scorpion that had been lying in wait, it extended its stinger!
Tiony's silver moon blades had already silently cut in!
It transformed into two cunning and deadly silver arcs, so fast that only afterimages remained! One point of cold star pierced Aisha's back, while the other, like a venomous snake's tongue, precisely locked onto her throat!
Aisha's breath hitched!
Her figure continued to retreat, relentlessly pursued by the perfectly coordinated strangulation attacks of Teonne and Tiona.
The raging battle was like a raging hurricane, sweeping across the land! Three Amazon girls fought fiercely, leaving cracks in the ground like a spider web.
Some combat prostitutes who were unable to react in time were unfortunately swept into the vortex of destruction, and their pitiful screams were swallowed up by the roar of the energy collision!
They were either smashed to pieces by the flying debris, or violently thrown into the ruins by the violent impact, their fate unknown!
Aisha, who usually took good care of her sisters, glanced at the fallen figures out of the corner of her eye, and felt as if an invisible hand was clenching her heart tightly.
However, the overwhelming and ferocious attacks from the two Amazonian sisters, which were almost crushing her, gave her no chance to catch her breath!
"This force—this is impossible!"
Aisha was struck head-on by Tiona's heavy chop, and felt a sharp pain and numbness in her arms, her hands almost bursting open!
She lowered her head, looking at the formidable Amazon sisters opposite her. For the first time, a clear look of horror appeared in her eyes, which always burned with wildfire. "You—are all LV.5?!"
This almost out-of-control question was like a thunderclap from the heavens! The incredulous tone, filled with indescribable astonishment, drowned out all the noise of the battlefield!
It sent chills down the spines of the fighting prostitutes.
On the other side of the building.
The situation was so one-sided that it couldn't even be called a battle; it was a one-sided annihilation!
Roy, Ryu, Daphne, Cassandra, and Lily, the five of them, were like an unstoppable spear, piercing through the line of shoulders formed by the Ishtar Familia.
Wherever they went, they were invincible!
The fighting prostitutes were like an upper fortress being swept away by a giant wave, their screams rising and falling.
"Magic team! Cast a spell!"
"Quickly!! Stop them—!"
A desperate, even broken, scream erupted from behind! Cold sweat beaded on the forehead of the person in temporary command, who nearly lost his composure under the influence of fear!
The mages of Sanchao hurriedly raised their staffs and began to chant. Their incantations were like ants on a hot pan, rushed and out of tune!
Just as their first spell was still swirling on their tongues, a clear, cold female voice pierced through the clamor and resounded clearly throughout the battlefield!
"The Wind of Light—!"
Ryu, who is proficient in the incantation of corpse walking, releases magic at a speed that surpasses that of any member of the Ishtar Familia.
Hundreds of emerald-green orbs of light, like jade stars, materialized out of thin air. To the horror of the fighting prostitutes, these orbs transformed into a surging emerald waterfall of light, crashing down with a deafening roar!
Rumble, rumble, rumble—!
The stream of light instantly engulfed the magic squad of the Ishtar Familia and drowned a large number of battle prostitutes.
The continuous, violent explosions shook the earth like drums! Blinding emerald light, accompanied by the violent impact, raged wildly, tearing apart figures, staffs, and rubble! In an instant, that area became an energy graveyard ravaged by a magical storm!
With just one round of magical bombardment, Ryu completely crippled over a hundred members of the Ishtar Familia.
Ryu then activated his skill – Inheritance of Justice!
Within a certain range, members of the same divine bloodline will have their skill effects amplified and their mental strength increased.
Grants resistance to mental pollution!
It's like giving everyone a buff.
The prostitutes of the Ishtar Familia also collected a considerable amount of information about the Amatera Familia.
Besides Roy, the main commander, Cassandra, the healer, is the second target; the battle prostitutes want to eliminate her first.
As it turned out, Cassandra's power was even more exaggerated than theirs. With a wave of her staff, she could defeat a large number of LV.2 or even LV.3 battle prostitutes.
Daphne activated her skills and magic, standing proudly in the center of the battle, as immovable as a rock!
Several Level 2 combat prostitutes, defying all superstition, roared and slashed their blades fiercely at her.
Clang! Clang! Bang—!
The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing together filled the air.
Sparks flew everywhere, but Daphne's slender figure remained perfectly still, not even the hem of her dress swaying.
The sharp blade was like striking an immovable mountain; it could not advance an inch, and the recoil caused the attacker's hand to split open and the blade to chip!
thump!
Lily's figure had already transformed into an elusive Buddhist shadow! Her petite body moved swiftly through the gaps in the dense enemy ranks, and the combat prostitutes fell to the ground one after another like cut-down ears of wheat.
On the other side.
The dazzling metalwork lightning in Roy's palm solidified into a long black metalwork staff wreathed in leaping electric arcs. He casually stepped into the enemy ranks, his posture as relaxed as if he were strolling through his own private courtyard.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Roy swung his long staff, accompanied by a muffled sound of wind and thunder. Wherever the staff struck, the fighting prostitute was sent flying in a flash, utterly powerless to fight back.
Wherever they went, they left behind a scene of utter desolation.
Gazing up at the image in the divine mirror, the entire Orario fell silent, and everyone's eyes glazed over.
No, there are no schemes or elaborate plots, and even less of a battle of wits and thrilling action.
Pure, unadulterated violence!
The LV.4 Tamma was knocked down by Liu's punch before the "Level Ascension" cooldown was over, and he lay on the ground like a dead dog, unable to get up again.
Not to mention the other combat prostitutes.
The man who colluded with the Black Buddha faction was pale with fright, his legs went weak, and he sat paralyzed on the ground.
The Loki Familia inside the Twilight Mansion reacted in the same way, falling into a deep silence.
Finn gave a wry smile. The Amatera Familia always managed to surprise him. He thought it would be a 50/50 match, but the difference was just too great!
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Lilia's beautiful, gentle face.
The Tower of Babel, the thirtieth floor.
In the spacious hall, all the gods who usually loved excitement fell silent, as if they had lost their voices, staring intently at the divine mirror.
In that instant, the gods' brains went blank.
Until Ishtar broke the silence.
"Impossible, impossible!" Ishtar's voice was frantic, like a madwoman tearing at her hair, unable to accept this outcome.
By this time, no one was paying attention to her anymore.
"Asteria, what's going on?"
The gods gaped, breathing rapidly, and frantically surrounded the goddess Amatriya, bombarding her with questions, one after another.
Amatriya gave a helpless smile. The strength of the Familia could not be hidden. As soon as they made a move, the gods and high-level adventurers would immediately recognize them.
Hermes wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his lips twitching wildly. "Astraea, may I ask, what are the ranks of your children?"
The gods dared not breathe, for fear of mishearing.
Amalia laughed, "Ryu is LV.6, Roy, Tione, and Tiona are LV.5, Daphne and Cassandra are LV.4, and Lily is LV.3!"
Astraea's face was filled with pride and joy.
The hall of the gods was deathly silent; the gods could clearly hear each other's breathing.
"Pfft!" Loki spat out a mouthful of wine, his narrowed eyes widening to their maximum.
Although it was expected, the improvement of the Astrea Familia still surprised Loki.
Not to mention the gods, who stood as if rooted to the ground.
One LV.6, three LV.5, two LV.4, and one LV.3—what an incredible lineup!
What the hell are the Ishtar Familia fighting for?!
One LV.6 is equivalent to at least a dozen LV.5 adventurers. The strength of the Amatera Familia surpasses that of the Ganesha Familia, second only to the Loki Familia and Freya Familia. Orario is truly the third strongest family!
Faced with absolute power, there was no need for any schemes. Roy and his group crushed through like an iron torrent, and the Ishtar Familia could not stop them!
