Slam! Slam! Slam!

The moment he stepped in, countless voices sounded.

Five meters above, dozens of torches burned fiercely.

With the help of the dark green light, Lorne saw the true appearance of the fire sources. They were the heads of ferocious beasts.

At the same time, the flames lit up the entire hall.

There were no other monsters here, only a coffin in the center of the hall. It was suspended in midair by four thick chains. There was a scarlet magic circle under it, and the patterns on it were like blood. At this moment, they were emitting red blood energy that gathered towards the coffin above.

Such a strange scene was obviously not normal.

Lorne moved a little closer, Rimuru beside him, ready to defend him against any potential danger.

Two archers stood on each side, their bows in their hands as they guarded the surroundings.

When everyone was close enough,

suddenly!

“Phew—”

A strange wind swept through the entire hall.

Then, they gathered at the bottom of the coffin, forming a strange tornado.

It gathered the scarlet blood energy and even the red runes on the ground, finally infusing them into the coffin in midair.

Then…

Everything went calm.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Thinking that he had to get close enough to trigger the subsequent scene, Lorne walked over.

But at that moment,

A scythe made entirely of white bones descended from the sky.

Clang!

The bone scythe landed on the path Lorne took, the blade stabbing into the hard ground.

Then, black fog enveloped the surroundings, and a pair of scarlet eyes floated in midair.

The white bone scythe on the ground trembled and flew into the sky.

A dark, withered hand seized the scythe.

Lorne could not help but take a few steps back. Following his pupils, he could see a huge figure. It was a black-robed undead mage.

————

From the interface, although this was also an ordinary Level 10 Boss, its attributes were anything but normal.

An attack limit of 450 points was stronger than any enemy that Lorne had encountered so far.

However, it could not escape the fate of being killed.

Lorne was not about to let it go.

“Rimuru, draw the aggro of the Boss!”

“Small Artillery, Rapid Fire!”

Lorne quickly gave the order, then hid far away, using his authority to control the Fire of Death to activate the skill.

The bow was drawn like a full moon.

In an instant, five flaming arrows burst from its hands.
