The manor rapidly decayed and rotted, becoming covered in mold.
Evelyn also underwent a drastic transformation; the mold attached itself to her, and she instantly changed into a massive, hideous monster.
This monster was entirely composed of mold, fluid-like, resembling a long piece of play-doh.
The only remaining feature on its body was a huge, vaguely recognizable face.
“Damn it.”
This mutation startled the Adventurers in the manor.
They all scrambled to their feet.
“Attack! Quick, attack!”
One Adventurer shouted urgently, simultaneously pulling out a grenade, disengaging the safety, and throwing it.
Boom!
The grenade exploded on Evelyn, but it only created a small crater in the fluid-like mold.
This crater was quickly filled by other mold.
At the same time, the blown-off mold splattered into the air, landing on one Adventurer.
These molds seemed to be alive.
They quickly enveloped this Adventurer, attempting to corrode his body.
“Spread out! Ranged attacks!”
“Where are the rocket launchers? Bring them out quickly!”
A commander roared.
He turned his head towards the direction of the rocket launchers.
However, he saw over a dozen Adventurers whose wills had been corroded by the mold, who had already bitten to death the few people who went to retrieve the rocket launchers.
If one observed carefully, they would notice.
These dozen-plus Adventurers whose wills had been corroded by the mold were precisely those whom Evelyn had earlier recognized as ‘Mom and Dad’.
They had shown no prior signs.
When Evelyn went into a chaotic rampage, they had already transformed into this state.
These dozen-plus Adventurers, whose wills were corroded by the mold, attacked their companions under Evelyn’s control.
Inside the manor.
It was incredibly chaotic.
Evelyn’s massive body had already broken through the manor’s dome, and she had also sent the large gate flying.
Outside, there was no longer any trace of the Tyrant’s second form.
Even the ruins were gone; all that remained was a dark void and chaos.
Consciousness World!
It was only here that everyone understood why it was called the Consciousness World.
“So that’s how it is.”
“This world is actually Evelyn’s Consciousness World. When she feels content, the Consciousness World will be stable. If she feels angry, the Consciousness World will collapse.”
“Which means… this little girl is actually the final boss of this difficult mode? Every time the party is wiped, she recognizes a ‘family member’, and this family member becomes her helper in the final Boss battle?”
“It seems to be that way for now.”
The Adventurers of Tidal Town discussed animatedly.
Through the end of this world-line, they had already discerned some clues.
“From the looks of it, the number of revivals is also limited.”
“If you die too many times, you will eventually transform into those molds.”
【Calculating… 】
【Calculation complete: In this Dungeon, you have received one bowl of pig trotter rice, one bowl of seaweed soup… 】
Feiyun Town.
The ‘Dungeon Duel’ exclusive Consciousness Land.
100 Adventurers had reappeared here, looking at each other.
“It seems everyone has the same idea.”
“I have to say, although the opposite side is just a newly emerging town, their Dungeon really has something. Just this first boss, the overall quality displayed so far, can crush any Dungeon Lord we’ve seen.”
“Looking at just this point, transferring our household registration there would absolutely not be a loss.”
“And you all must have received your rewards, right?”
When this reward was mentioned.
The 100 Adventurers present couldn’t help but their eyes gleam with golden light.
Some even swallowed their saliva.
“What I got was a bowl of rice with toppings. You might not believe it, but it was covered in meat, and it was meat I’d never seen before. It was incredibly tender, not tough at all.”
“Mine was pig trotter rice. I ate half of it and then didn’t dare to eat any more, afraid it would be gone later.”
“It seems everyone’s gains are similar. This Dungeon Lord’s perception seems a bit different from others. Not only is the Dungeon environment so special, but the food that drops is also so delicious.”
“I didn’t expect such an excellent Dungeon Lord to come from a newly emerging town. I don’t know what you all think, but after this Dungeon Duel ends, I plan to move there. These foods are simply too delicious; I can’t resist.”
“Me too.”
“I take back what I said earlier. If we can successfully move there this time, everyone here will be my father.”
Just with this one conclusion.
The attitude of these Adventurers from Feiyun Town had undergone a complete transformation.
Before, they had said no, no.
Now they wished they could immediately transfer their household registration and become a member of Tidal Town.
What newly emerging town?
That’s my future home, don’t talk nonsense…
“Alright, enough talk. Everyone came here to play another round, let’s just start.”
“Charge, charge, charge!”
“This time we definitely have to defeat the Tyrant; we can’t lose face in front of our future brothers.”
“Remember, a dozen people will go to contain the Tyrant, and the others will thoroughly search those ruins, trying to find the strongest weapons possible.”
As they spoke.
One after another, Adventurers disappeared from their original spots.
Heading to the Dungeon.
The difficulty of the Tyrant was indeed very high, blocking all the Adventurers from Feiyun Town here, preventing them from advancing even half a step.
In the other 4 world-lines, although they did not kill the Tyrant’s first form, leading the battle into a desperate situation. But because of repeated failures, Evelyn lost her patience and eventually killed all of them.
They also exited the Dungeon.
Entering the settlement interface.
From the rewards they settled, it was clear that it wouldn’t be long before…
These Adventurers would form teams again and head to the Dungeon.
After this wave.
The Adventurers of Feiyun Town had all learned their lesson now.
They knew that searching for equipment was the most important thing.
They began to divide into teams and groups.
Each with their own division of labor.
Even if all 5 attempts today were spent here, they were determined to kill the Tyrant boss.
“Remember the plan: Group 1 and Group 2, come with me to contain the Tyrant. The rest of you, in teams of five, disperse and search the ruins. Prioritize finding heavy firepower. If you encounter areas guarded by high-level zombies, remember to mark them.”
In each world-line, a commander was chosen.
To conduct overall command.
Among these five world-lines, one world-line only had 80 people, but correspondingly, the various difficulties of the Boss were also lowered by 20%. Although they were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, there was at least some compensation.
