[Invasion by Mirelson!!!]

"Again? Will it ever end!?"

The figure of Mirelson emerged from the scarlet swamp, the crimson intruding spiritual body matched the swamp so well that at first glance, one might mistake her for a demon or something.

However, in the eyes of the adventurers at this moment, Mirelson was no different from a demon.

"I can’t believe it, this time we must take her down!" the adventurer captain was furious, waving his hand and saying, "Everyone, spread out, don’t gather and give her an advantage!"

Even though they didn’t know the name of Mirelson’s signature combat skill—Water Bird Chaotic Dance, they noticed that this combat skill was quite troublesome, and it was easy to be wiped out if they clustered together.

So spreading out to deal with the enemy was definitely the right move!

It must be said, these adventurers knew a thing or two, and their tactical thinking was not wrong.

However, once dispersed, their combat power was also scattered.

A lone heavy armor warrior was targeted, quickly being hacked into serious injury, while his attacks on Mirelson seemed to be ignored, clearly causing damage, yet the opponent didn’t care!

Strangely, Mirelson didn’t finish him off; instead, she turned and slashed at another adventurer.

"I’m coming to save you!"

The magician and the sword and shield warrior guarding him rushed to the heavy armor warrior’s side, hurriedly casting spells to provide healing.

The heavy armor warrior felt like he had snatched back his life, while the sword and shield warrior, who was warily watching Mirelson now far away, widened his eyes and shouted:

"Get out of the way!"

Perhaps over a hundred meters away, Mirelson once again assumed the familiar stance, preparing for the Water Bird Chaotic Dance.

But the adventurer in front of her was already slain with one slash, what’s the point of using a combat skill on a corpse, is it some mysterious taunting ritual like a teabagging?

However, when Mirelson swung the first strike of Water Bird Chaotic Dance, she vanished from the spot.

"Bang bang bang—"

The sword and shield warrior hurriedly raised his shield, only to hear the sound of relentless rain pounding on it, and in an instant, Mirelson "flew" right before him!

This Water Bird Chaotic Dance has a dash effect!?

Isn’t this dash distance a bit too far?

The reason for sparing the heavy armor warrior’s life was also clear, it was to lure in the magician.

No wonder, the under-leveled invader is such a cunning strategist!

"Bastard ahhhh—"

With endless rage, the sword and shield warrior’s shield was shattered from the continuous attacks, and the Water Bird Chaotic Dance descended upon the three of them.

Die!

...

"Does that Mirelson have no shame, I say!"

"Such a bastard, deliberately bullying us!"

"I can’t stand it anymore, ahhh!"

Inside the blessing area of the Celia Crystal Tunnel, each adventurer wore a look of righteous indignation, their inner anger reaching such heights that their faces turned as red as ripe apples.

Indeed, they were taken down again by the intruder known as Mirelson.

Taken down for the fourth time!

That bastard invaded them four whole times, four times!

If this isn’t intolerable, what is?

Her move of leaping up and unleashing a massive amount of sword qi was something they really couldn’t dodge, exhausting every means still couldn’t keep them alive.

Someone, using all their strength, scrambled in some direction and inexplicably dodged an attack, and just as he was feeling surprised himself, Mirelson flew in and unleashed the second combo of Water Bird Chaotic Dance, slicing him into pieces.

Can this combat skill be used without nerfs?

For a moment, people almost thought they were facing a Sword Saint!

"I’m going to report to the adventurer’s guild, no, I’m going to put a bounty on her!"

In the Yanor Kingdom’s adventurer’s guild, there’s a dedicated bounty board for intruders, where adventurers can post bounties on intruders.

However, because intruders often use various means to hide their true appearance and names, you often see all kinds of abstract portrait paintings and names on the bounty board, resulting in the practical effect of the bounty being quite limited.

It’s basically a channel for the invaded individuals to vent their rage, its actual effect is minimal, and sometimes the bounty amount and the number of bounties even become a badge of honor for some wildly malicious intruders, reminiscent of returning to One Piece.

"However, that arrogant woman didn’t even wear a hood or anything to conceal her identity, and acted rather straightforwardly. The name Mirelson also sounds like a real name... Could she be an honest person?"

"No, no, no, anyone who suppresses levels to invade is clearly pure evil. You can’t fully trust her just because of a tiny good deed."

After pausing, the adventurer captain shifted the topic and said, "If you look closely, her face is actually quite good-looking."

"What are you doing, captain, what are you doing!"

Tepi watched the adventurers bicker without stopping them. After all, dungeon exploration... or rather, exploring the Sain Dungeon isn’t something that can make people feel comfortable. Some necessary noisy relaxation is still needed.

Moreover, it’s almost time for the dungeon to close, even the clock is sounding off. There’s no need to keep on edge; let’s be more casual in the exploration ahead.

After a bout of noise, the team walked out of the tunnel again. The adventurer captain successfully fished out his amulet from the swamp.

For some reason, it seems like every time he enters the swamp, he gets unlucky, invaded by Mirelson. This time, he didn’t dare to go underwater and used the magician’s power to retrieve the amulet. Consequently, the magician almost suffered a magic power depletion from focusing too long on using magic to find it, which is why they initially didn’t allow the magician to get involved.

"High-tier magic [Poison Dispersal] cannot eradicate the unknown poison in the swamp, but can delay its onset."

"High-tier magic [Thorough Isolation Shield] consumes twice as fast in the swamp, but it can completely isolate the body from the swamp and ensures absolute immunity to poison."

"If one must enter the swamp, dealing with poisoning and then using [Poison Dispersal] to delay its onset adds more uncertainty to the adventure. It’s better to choose right from the start to expend more magic on shielding for poison isolation."

Protected in the center of the adventurer team, Tepi spoke to the recording stone, documenting what he saw and heard along the way. Each recording had value, earning him some leverage for success in the race.

He shook his head, his expression somewhat worried.

Although this trip seemed to have experienced quite a few things and obtained rare purple light points like [War Ash: Red Lion Flame] and reached some conclusions, overall, it seems that there hasn’t been a rediscovery of a place as resource-rich as the Celia Crystal Tunnel.

I don’t know if Gerhard has escaped from the mine yet. Tepi looked up at the sky, thinking: though that guy’s sharpness has been eroded by a comfortable life, his subordinates still have some prowess. After suffering some torment in the mine, he should be able to escape smoothly. Now he’s probably running around like a headless chicken in Galide.

"Hey, I wonder what discovery that guy can achieve, I’m really looking forward to it."

He showed a competitive smile, changing his expression faster than turning a page. The previous look of worry disappeared entirely, and instead, he felt regret for not being able to see Gerhard’s embarrassing state in the mine.

However, Gerhard hadn’t escaped smoothly.

"Boss, where are we headed next?" an adventurer sought advice from Tepi.

"We don’t have enough time to run far anymore...." Tepi looked around and finally set his sight on a huge building group, which was the small town visible right after leaving the Celia Crystal Tunnel, also where they previously encountered many invisible magician enemies.

Magic Town Celia!

At first, everyone cherished their equipment and didn’t want to fight with the invisible magicians in the town, and indeed couldn’t win.

But now it’s different, everyone’s equipment like armor has been hacked by Mirelson until it’s tattered and unwearable, naturally removing any concerns. Without the armor, they’re lighter, and perhaps, they could outrun the magician’s bombardment and find some good stuff in Magic Town Celia.

Anyway, this town is the closest unexplored place left. Burns and firewalls are too far to reach, the swamp poison is too much for adventurers to produce enough protective shields, so they can only try their luck in Celia Town.

Next time, they have to hire a batch of stronger adventurers; Tepi thought this.

Magic Town Celia is very close, a few steps and they’ll reach there. People stood at the entrance, preparing to enter.

They used up all remaining supplies like magic shields, anti-magic liver dry, strengthening potions, etc. It’s the final stretch, so why keep them, after all, Tepi will reimburse them, might as well use them.

Tepi, during this time, examined and assessed the town, but didn’t sense any particularly special charm from it.

Just an ordinary dilapidated town, with some high magic content crystal clusters, even the air seems to be permeated with the aura of luminous stone magic.

He thought if there were more senior magicians present, perhaps they could perceive a deeper charm of this town, but unfortunately, he could not, as he preferred warriors with decisive blows.

"The crystals growing in this town should also serve as a resource, I guess. Forget it; I’ll record it first."

As he recorded, he walked into Magic Town Celia.

The exploration inside seemed uneventful, just like those adventurer teams exploring new areas, enduring setbacks as usual.

The invisible magicians inside had incredibly fast hands, who knows how many hundreds of years single, releasing luminous stone magic gravels faster than a machine gun.

People finally locked onto the magician’s position, but when they rushed in, the magician flashed and disappeared.

Invisibility and flash combined, isn’t this just bullying?

The adventurers were resigned to their fate long ago but acted as if doing their utmost for better commissions while exploring.

But until the clock sounded and people were kicked out of the dungeon, the town’s gains were merely a few chipped off crystal clusters.

Dizzying teleportation was particularly noticeable when one is fatigued.

"Finally out..." Adventurers voiced their relief.

Tepi opened his eyes, his sight was covered by bright lights that lit the night like daylight, blinding him to the point he couldn’t open his eyes for a moment.

"Welcome back, you two."

Lanle’s lazy yet slightly flippant voice arose.

"What goodies have you brought back for me?"
