Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?
Chapter 782 - 508: Big Tree Guard Is Here to Give You a Back Massage
However, when they realized they couldn’t come to any conclusions, the topic started to stray, like:
"The Shattered Star General must be the strongest, right? He looks so brave and handsome."
"Don’t you think the Omen sounds super powerful?"
"I think that Feces Eater is quite charming too."
Eventually, when they had nothing else to say, Fanen finally asked the question he had been wanting to ask since just now:
"Are you sure the White Mask we saw earlier is an enemy and not some kind of residual shadow?"
Uffie was silent for a moment, her face slightly red, and she mumbled softly, which was a rare sight:
"What’s done is done."
Alright, it seemed she had come to her senses a bit.
At that moment, the door was opened again, and Tepi staggered out. He almost fell when he saw the two of them unharmed.
"What happened, Mr. Basque?" Fanen caught him just in time.
"I, I..." Tepi took a deep breath to calm himself before saying, "There were too many things to see today, both good and bad, and my mind is a bit weary."
It wasn’t until he sat down to rest for a moment that Uffie, with interest, asked, "Mr. Basque, how do you plan to deal with this dungeon?"
"How to deal with it? I’m just hoping Sain doesn’t deal with me!" He grumbled, "I must be cursed for having built my mansion on top of the Sain Dungeon."
"You knew this was Sain?" Fanen asked in confusion, wondering why it seemed that only he and his sister didn’t know it was Sain.
"Of course, initially it was about the limb-connecting nobles, and the Moon Princess Lanni told us stories, and an unnamed portrait resembling Latan is still hanging in Reyalucaria. If this place isn’t Sain, I’ll donate all my possessions!"
He said it with such confidence as if he knew more about Sain than anyone present.
Even though he claimed to hate Leon and Sain, he still thoroughly studied Sain, understanding it even more deeply than Uffie, who mostly stayed in Lake Lienia.
In short, he was now a veritable know-it-all about Sain—at least on paper.
"Then do you know him?" Uffie pointed at the Big Tree Guard who had somehow returned to patrol without anyone noticing.
"Yes, that was the Monster that appeared on the day of the rampage in the Sain Dungeon." Tepi recognized it immediately.
He looked around and stood up, saying, "The Big Tree Guard only appeared on the day of the rampage in the Sain Dungeon, and then was never seen again. There’s little information about him, but according to eyewitnesses from that day, a girl wielding a greatsword could fight one Big Tree Guard alone. That girl was later confirmed to be Elsa, the Hero."
"There is also some information saying that two elite captains of the Light Eagle Group and a group of mercenaries could withstand one Big Tree Guard for a short time."
Tepi shifted the topic, saying, "Waiting here for that little girl who is traveling with you, why not find something to do? How about the three of us take care of the Big Tree Guard?"
You’re so bold? Fanen was shocked and turned to look at Uffie, only to find her nodding in agreement!
"I can take on two captains of the Light Eagle Group with one hand."
Uffie stood up with a spirited demeanor and said, "Just as well, I’m bored, let’s take care of the Big Tree Guard!"
"Aren’t you going to reconsider?" Fanen thought it would be better to be more cautious.
"Don’t worry, the Big Tree Guard is strong, but," Uffie raised her thumb towards herself, confidently saying,
"a Monster placed at the entrance of the Dungeon couldn’t be too outrageous!"
A moment later.
The Big Tree Guard was leisurely riding a horse along a path.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and a Mercury Bullet exploded on his helmet, with some fragments finding their way into the gaps of the helmet.
It stung a little, and he was angry!
The Big Tree Guard immediately spurred his horse towards Fanen, who was alone and shooting at him from not far away, like a runaway tank, with the Golden Spear raised high.
"Thunk!"
The ground was instantly smashed into a big pit, and as Fanen barely managed to dodge, he hadn’t even caught his breath when the dirt driven by the long spear hadn’t settled, and another attack from the Big Tree Guard came!
Fanen was sent flying into the air, luckily catching hold of a nearby pole, preventing a hard fall.
The Big Tree Guard relentlessly pursued, while he frantically dodged the relentless onslaught, looking for a chance to strike back but finding none.
"Are you guys ready yet?" He was about to lose his grip.
Suddenly, arrows formed by a mix of Magic Power and Fighting Qi fell like rain, a genuine attack that could certainly wound him, and the Big Tree Guard raised a shield to defend.
Not only did he raise a shield to defend, but the shield also shone with a golden light, and the Combat Skill [Golden Return] was activated at that moment, sending the magic-formed projectiles hurtling towards a nearby bush that looked like someone could be hiding there, leveling it.
But no one was hiding in the bush.
"Now’s the time!" Tepi’s voice suddenly came from the other direction.
"Hah!"
A powerful gust of wind attacked from behind the Big Tree Guard, with a spearhead so large in both size and destructive power that a direct hit would surely deal significant damage to the enemy.
The Big Tree Guard only had time to turn and raise his shield before the spearhead was already upon him.
It succeeded! Tepi clenched his fist, his tactic had worked!
Using Fanen to draw its attention, he unleashed Magic Arrow Rain to force the opponent into using Golden Return, and then had Uffie unleash her long-prepared strike on the Big Tree Guard.
