"Ace, we should go back. Lavilia looked at Ace, who was killing the skeleton monsters, and reminded her. They didn't bring much food with them this time. After staying in the underground maze for two days, the food reserves were already insufficient.
"Wait, Lavilia, I'm going to kill the floor master of the 38th floor, the lone king of the maze, Udaylos.”Ace looked at Lavilia and said softly.
This was Xi Xiangye's intention. He wanted her to be at ease and brave enough to go solo, complete her great cause, and then level up.
Right now, she had already reached a bottleneck. Leveling up to Level 6 was indeed a good choice. In that case, her strength could be greatly improved.
"Ace, are you serious?" Livelia's eyes narrowed as she said in a deep voice.
At every level of the underground maze, special monsters would be born. These monsters were known as Level Lords.
Normally, the level of a Level Lord would increase the level of the monsters on the current level by two levels.
Most of the monsters on the 38th floor were Level 4 monsters. For this reason, the Lone King Udaylos of the Lone King Maze on the 38th floor was a Level 6 monster. Moreover, it was not an ordinary Level 6 monster. It was the type of dungeon BOSS in online games.
To ordinary adventurers, challenging the lone king of the maze at Level 5 was a suicidal move.
However, if he could really kill it alone, the amount of achievement he would obtain would be shocking. It was enough to level up any Level 5 Adventurer.
"Yes, I want to go." Ace nodded, her golden eyes flashing as she stared at Livelia.
"" Lavilia frowned at Ace and fell silent.
Although Ace was usually obsessed with becoming stronger, she would not be so reckless. She was still very rational. The current situation was obviously abnormal.
He was clearly not provoked, but he actually wanted to risk his life to challenge the Level Lord of the 38th floor.
" Miss Ace, Captain Lavilia…" Lafia, who was standing at the side, could feel the oppressive atmosphere. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. She could only look at the two of them in panic.
" Lavilia, don't stop me." Ace said quietly. "I asked you to accompany me to the underground maze to prevent any accidents.”
This was what Ace thought.
In fact, Xi Xiangye had asked Lavilia to come along to reassure Ace.
After all, he had taken away Esther's body. If he went to the deeper parts of the Buried City alone, everyone would feel uneasy.
Although Ace was quite cute and not an ordinary person, Xi Xiangye had to be more careful.
Otherwise, Xi Xiangye could have come alone, and no one would have seen through him.
"I understand." Livelia sighed helplessly.
This time, Ace was still rational enough to let her come along. He had stopped Ace this time, but what about next time? It was a question worth pondering whether Ace would come alone to challenge a Level Lord next time.
With her around, she could at least protect her after she was seriously injured.
Otherwise, even if Ace defeated the tier leader in a one-on-one battle, she would definitely be heavily injured.
In the depths of this underground maze, serious injuries meant desperate straits.
"Thank you, Lavilia." Ace sighed in relief and blinked her eyes as she said softly. "Just this once. Don't mess around next time.”Livelia exhaled lightly and said with a serious expression.
"Yes." Ace nodded.
Beside him, Lafia also heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he was also a little nervous. Miss Ace will be fine if she fights a Level Lord alone, right?
No, he would definitely be fine. With Captain Lavilia around, Miss Ace would definitely be fine.
The three of them continued to move forward in the heavy atmosphere. At this moment, the open ground in front of them suddenly exploded, and a huge skeleton monster that was more than eight meters tall crawled out. There was also a huge magic stone wrapped inside the skeleton.
This was the owner of the 38th floor, the Lone King of the Labyrinth, Udaylos!
"Hu…" Seeing this huge monster, Ace's face was solemn as she pulled out her exclusive rapier, the Sword of Despair, from her waist.
"Wind, sweep it away." In the next moment, Ace spat out a few words and activated her exclusive spell.
The green wind swirled around Ace, greatly increasing her strength, defense, and speed.
Facing the lone king of the maze, she had to use her full strength from the beginning to have a chance of winning.
"Slash!" At this moment, Udaylos suddenly pulled out his huge bone sword and slashed at Ais.
Although the greatsword was very heavy, its attack speed was surprisingly fast.
At the very least, a Level 4 adventurer would definitely not be able to react in time. Level 5 adventurers were also very dangerous.
However, this speed was still acceptable for Ace, who walked the nimble and agile path and had even activated her exclusive spell, Wind Spirit Sprint.
For this reason, Ace easily dodged the attack and ran towards Udaylos along the greatsword.
Facing Ace's charge, Udaylos launched another attack. Terrifying earth spikes appeared densely and attacked Ace.
Facing these extremely fast and numerous Earth Spikes that appeared from the ground, even Ace was in a sorry state.
Those who could dodge would naturally dodge, and those who could not dodge or block the way could only be cut off.
In just an instant, Ace had taken quite a bit of damage.
Although they were only superficial wounds, they could tell that Ace was in danger.
As time passed, although Ace managed to strike Udaylos 'body, her rapier could only leave a few tiny sword marks on his bones, unable to break through his defenses.
On the contrary, it was more and more difficult for Ace to fight. The injuries on her body also worsened, and blood flew everywhere.
Xi Xiangye was shocked to see so many scars on her fair skin.
This was the first time he had seen Ace's stubbornness.
"Miss Ace…" Lafia covered her mouth. She wanted to attack several times, but her legs were trembling and she couldn't even hold her wand firmly.
"Ace…" Livelia's face was solemn as she gathered her magic power. His wand was shining, ready to strike at any moment.
At this moment, Ace was struck by Udaylos 'greatsword.
Although he had used the Sword of Despair to block the attack at the critical moment, he was still sent flying by the huge force. He rolled a few times on the ground and spat out blood. The thumb and forefinger of his right hand that was holding the sword were also shattered, and blood flowed out.
Now, he was still lacking.
Seeing this, Xi Xiangye sighed.
In the Legend of Sword Lady, after the first expedition ended, although Ai Si's ability value did not increase much, it did improve.
Even though his fifth dimension had only improved a little, sometimes, at the most critical moment, this little bit of ability value was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The current Ais was not strong enough to suppress the lone king of the maze, Udaylos.
In the original novel, Esther fought until the end. Her bones were shattered, her internal organs shattered, and she was on the verge of death.
Even if the current Ace was as desperate as she was in the original novel, it was impossible for her to win.
"Ace, it's time for a change." For this reason, Xi Xiangye spoke up. "It's time for a professional substitute.”
